A person with a red plaid coat, dark blue jeans and a silk black scarf, is walking down the street, carrying a fancy-looking box, “Okay, it should be not that far from here-” I said,
“Help me! Somebody!”
I heard a faint voice coming from the alley, I peeked around the corner and saw a woman was getting robbed by three big thugs, “Search her purse, grab anything worth of value.” One of the thugs said, pinning the woman to the ground, “Please, I make little money as it is.” The woman pleaded,
“Guys, guys, why are you robbing the poor lady? Try robbing someone that matches your salary.” I said, with my scarf covering most of my face, “Mind your own business, or we’ll rob you next.” The thug said in a threatening tone, “That won’t be necessary, here, all that you need is in this pouch.” I said, handing him a pouch,
Ruffle~
“Who are you fooling? This is just dirt!” The thug said, opening the pouch up, only to find it to be filled with dirt, “It’s not just any dirt, it’s a very special kind of dirt, look closer.” I said,
The thug looked closer at the dirt, “I don’t see anything…” The thug said,
“Look closer…” I said, as the thug leaned in closer, “A little closer…” I said, as the dirt started glowing,
GROW!
A huge shoot of bamboo shot up from the dirt at a high speed, “What the-” The thug said,
BAM!
The shoot of bamboo uppercutted the thug, knocking him out instantly, “You’re going to pay for that, lil’ girl!” The second bald thug said, running towards me with a knife,
FWIP!
A long slip of paper came out of my hand, wrapping around the thug’s ankle, “She has multiple Traits?!?” Baldy said in shock,
Yank!
I pull the slip of paper hard, slipping Baldy as he hits his head on the hard concrete, he grunts in pain.
I disarm him and bind him up with a very long sheet of paper, “Augh! Why is this stuff so hard to rip?” Baldy said, tugging at the paper, “Even though it appears as paper, this stuff is as durable as steel.” I said, turning to the last guy, who had a bright red mohawk.
Shatter!
Mohawk breaks a bottle into pieces, and those shards start levitating and form into bullets, “Glass manipulation huh?” I said, touching a silver ring floating above my head, “If you do as much as to take a step, I’ll blow your guts filled with glass.” Mohawk said, threatening me, “Alright, I won’t take a step.” I said,
Toss~
I threw the box that I had in my hand over the glass bullets, “Fine, choose death, that’s convenient for all of us!” Mohawk said, sending the bullets at me.
Warp~
I teleported over to my box, grabbing it mid air, and landing behind Mohawk, he turns around in disbelief,
“HOW?!?-”
Bop~
I grew two more bamboo shoots out of the dirt pouch and hit the behind of both of his kneecaps, bringing him to his knees, “Please, have mercy on me! I’ll do anything!” Mohawk begged me, “Alright, give all of you cash and valuables to the lady you tried to rob. Every. Single Yen.” I said intimidatingly, “*sigh* Fine…” Mohawk sighed, giving the woman all of his money,
“Good, next-”
WAIL! WAIL!
Police siren blared as the officer got out of his car,
“POLI- Woah, what happened here?”
The police officer said, as all of the thugs groaned, “Sad, oh well, have fun in prison! I bet you’ll looove it!” I said sarcastically, using my bamboo to lift myself up to the roof, “Wait lil’ lady! We’ll need some info from you!” The police officer yelled to me as I ran off,
Pop~
“Alright, the mochi is okay.” I said, opening up the fancy box, “Now, time to visit an old friend.” I said, looking over to the forest.

Earlier that day
I’m shirtless in front of the mirror in my bathroom,
“Ah.”
I inspected my brown hair, which was cut at a 15 degree angle by Extinction's claws yesterday, “I kind of like this cut, I think I’ll keep it!” I said, walking into the shower,
About at 8:30 in the morning, I was discharged from the hospital, as I was only knocked unconscious, no physical harm dealt to me.
“Koto! Are you done in there? Breakfast is almost ready!” Mom asked me, peeking into the bathroom, “Give me some privacy please! I’m almost done!” I said, covering up my privates, “There’s nothing to be ashamed of, Koto, it’s nothing I haven’t seen before~.” Mom teased, I sigh in embarrassment.
(5 minutes later)
I walk out of the bathroom, fully dressed with black pants, white cotton shirt and a long light brown coat, “You look stylish today, I didn’t know you had such taste in style.” Natsuki said, complimenting my outfit, “Thanks! It’s kinda been a style I’ve been rocking for a while.” I said, rubbing the back of my head, “Breakfast is ready! Please set the table, you two.” Mom said to us, lifting the pan off of the stove,
“Got it, Mom!”
“Okay Ms. Inertai!”
We said simultaneously,

All of us were sitting cross-legged around the table, with cheese omelets, fluffy white rice maple smoked bacon, it looked super yummy!
“Thank you for the food!”
Koto and I said, thanking Ms. Inertai for breakfast, “No problem, I just hope it tastes alright, I’m not that much of a cook.” Ms. Inertai said, as we dug into the food,
Munch Munch~
“This food is… Actually not bad!” Koto said, eating some of his omelet, “Yeah! This food is pretty good, the omelet is cooked just right! And the rice is extremely moist, but not too moist that it becomes porridge, and the bacon is sweet and tasty! ” I said, giving compliments to the chef,
“I mean, all it really is is eggs with a little garlic powder, with a slice of cheese in the middle, some rice boiled in a pot, and some bacon that I grilled on the stove.” Ms. Inertai said humbly, “You made it with your heart, that’s the key to it! Anyways, may I have seconds? And perhaps thirds~?” I asked, showing my clean plate, “You finished it already?!?” Koto said in shock,
“In case I haven’t told you already, my Trait runs on calories, so it’s pretty important that I eat high calorie foods in big amounts.” I said, explaining my Trait, “A Trait that runs on calories, interesting… Natsuki, what was your last name again?” Ms. Inertai asked me, “Ikari.” I replied, “Oh! I know your hometown-”
“Please don’t talk about it. I just… don’t feel like talking about it.” I said, getting a little bit emotional, “I’m sorry.” Ms. Inertai said, apologizing to me, “It’s alright, it’s a recent thing.” I said to her,
“Let’s change the subject, where were we going later today?” Koto said, changing the mood in the room,

Three ginormous dome-shaped buildings are in front of us, one was red, one was yellow, and the one in front of us was blue. Natsuki, Mom and I are currently walking towards the building. “Here we are, the Trait Battle Academy.” Mom said to us, “What is this place? It’s huge!” Natsuki asked, “When my Mom was on hiatus, she brought me here so she could keep her Trait skills sharp while she could still keep an eye on me.” I replied,
Beam~
A light blue stream of light could be seen in the distance, I seemed to be the only one who noticed it,
Dash~
“Koto! Where are you going!?!” Mom yelled out to me, “I’ll be right back!” I said, running towards the forest, “Welp, this seems like a play by play of yesterday.” Natsuki said, running after me.
I run deeper into the forest,
“*Heading towards that beacon of light, huh?*”
The entity said, following closely along with me, “Yep, it’s caught my curiosity, just checking it out.” I said, jogging through the woods,
“*
I walked past a hedge and there were tens of hundreds of gravestones around, “What is this place?” I asked The Entity,
“*It seems like a cemetery, I’m sure you’ve heard of them, places where dead bodies are stored?*”
The Entity responded to me, “Look! Over there!” I said, pointing over at where the light was coming from, there was a person with long, pink hair, kneeling down near the pillar of light.
Suddenly, the light faded into nothing, as bright blue sparks circled around the person and entered a silver ring floating above her head, “I’m sorry for disturbing your peace, but look! I brought your favorite snack. We used to eat it all of the time, and I still love it!” She said, opening a box of mochi, and eating a couple of them,
*Teardrop falls*
“*sob* But it’s just not the same, I know I’m talking to nobody, and I look really stupid when doing this~.” She said, drying her tears, “She looks kind of cute, I think I should say hi-” I said,
Rustle~
“KOTO! WHERE ARE YOU?” Natsuki yelled out, catching attention to herself, “Oh snap, welp, gotta go! I’ll cya later, bye bye!” She said, with a black scarf covering her face, running off, “Wait-” I said, as a bamboo shoot appeared beneath her feet, as she fled, “-Dang… She ran.” I said, running to where she knelt down at, I inspected the gravestone,
In Loving Memory of:
Kitai Keiji
Died January 5th 2524
“Huh, looks like he recently passed away this year.” I said, getting back up from the ground, “Koto! *gasp* Why did you run off like that?” Natsuki asked me, gasping for air, “I was just checking out that beacon of light in the sky, there was a girl here, but unfortunately, she ran off when you arrived.” I said, explaining the situation,
“Sorry about that, I was worried, you know?” Natsuki said, apologizing, “It’s alright, who knows? We might see her again, anyways, let’s head back, Mom’s waiting for us.” I said, walking back to the hedge, “What about this box of mochi?” Natsuki asked, picking the box off of the floor, “That was hers, she probably left it when she left in a hurry.” I said, "We should hold onto it, although…” Natsuki said,
Drool~
“*nab* C’mon, let’s go.” I said, grabbing the box of mochi and putting it into my backpack, “Aww…” Natsuki said with her head down,

The long, pink haired person tucked and rolled after launching themself with a bamboo shoot, “Phew, that was close. Hopefully they don’t report me to the police.” I said, dusting the dirt off of my clothes,
Bzz~
My phone starts ringing in my jacket, I take it out and see who is calling me,
Caller: Master Suki
[Accept] | [Decline]
“Shoot…” I said, answering the phone,
“Tenshi! Where the heck are you!?!”
Master Suki screamed from my phone, “I was visiting a friend, I’ll be right over.” I said,
“*sigh* You should be glad that this is a weekend, I’ll give you 10 minutes. Hurry up, your opponent is waiting.”
Master Suki sighed, “Where are you anyways?” I asked her,
“Same place, T.B.A. Arena Area”
Master Suki said, telling me the location, “Alright! That’s relatively closeby! Be there soon~!” I said jokingly,
Bleep~
I hung up the phone, “Eheheh, I’m dead.” I said with a fake laugh, as I headed out.

Back to Koto’s Pov

Natsuki and I were jogging back to the T.B.A.,
“*So that group of buildings, the Trait Battle Academy was it? What’s the whole deal with it?*”
The entity asked me, “You seriously never heard of it? I mean, you’re a spirit, ghost, entity, thingy, but I’ll give you the rundown of it.” I said,
“It started around the 2nd century of Traits entering out world, so about 60% of the population around this point.
A lot of underground fight clubs popularized ‘Trait Battling’, where two people fought in a ring, with the added rule that they could go all out with their Traits.
It was a huge hit among people who wanted to use their god-given powers as they were already restricted from using their Traits in public.
The Japanese government eventually caught notice to these fights, a made a country-wide ban, banning any and all fights involving Traits, of course, the people were not happy with this, and took it to court.
This case went on for about a decade, before the government finally caved in, and made a system that allowed people to have the thrill of battling with their Trait, while still having a level of security.
That’s when the Trait Battle Academy was established, a place where seasoned fighters and newbies, Heroes active and retired, everyone can battle and spectate fights, there’s also Trait counseling and classes to maximize your Trait usage.”
I said as I kept running through the woods, “Seems like a neat place, how many Academies have been built?” Natsuki asked me, “I think there’s one in every region, the one in the city we’re in is one of the smallest, and the one in Hokkaido is the largest and the one in the Chubu is the most high-tech.” I said, as I start jogging,
“So, have you told your Mom yet?” Natsuki asked me, catching up to me, “About my Trait? No, not yet… She’ll find out today though, she thinks we’re coming back for ‘good old times sake’, but I shouldn’t keep her in the dark for too long- Oh look, we’re here!” I said, as we sprinted out of the forest,
When we got back to the concrete area, we saw Mom in the distance, she didn’t look mad, she looked more… Worried, “Koto, please stop running off like that, you’re pulling my heartstrings!” Mom said, with an anxious look on her face, “You’re… Not mad?” I said with a surprised look on my face, “Don’t get ‘drunk’ me and ‘regular’ me mixed up, it’s like they’re two different people.” Mom responded, as Natsuki walks up on the two of us,
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
“C’mon, quit the small talk! All that matters is that nothing happened! Let’s go inside already!” Natsuki said, dragging us inside, she’s surprisingly strong.
(Inside)
We went inside into the main lobby, it was very spacious and had a great atmosphere. “I have to get signed in first before going anywhere else, so you kids stay here.” Mom said, bringing us to the front desk,
“Hello, I’d like a day membership for three.” Mom said to the receptionist, “Of course- Oh! Ms. Inertai, Welcome back! How has it been?” The receptionist said, greeting my Mother, “It’s been the usual, do patrols, make some arrests, with the occasional hostage situation…” Mom said, as the two started a conversation,
Yap Yappity Yap~
They started a very uninteresting conversation, I turned my head away from them to try to direct my attention to something else,
That’s when I saw a face I haven’t seen in a long time,
“Sanchi? Is that you?” I said to a dark orange-haired boy, “Yeah, it’s me, whaddaya want-” The boy asked, “Koto!” Sanchi said, as we both run towards each other, Natsuki stands in the back, confused,
*Handshake*
I gave him a firm handshake, “Who is he?” Natsuki asked me, “Oh yeah! This is Atsui Sanchi, Sanchi, this is Natsuki.” I said, introducing the two,
“Koto, you didn’t tell me you got a girl~.” Sanchi teased, my face turned bright red with embarrassment, “Nah, we’re just friends, Koto and his Mom were coming here and they invited me to tag along.” Natsuki said,
“So, how have you been?” I asked him, “I’ve been good, I’ve been preparing for the EI Entrance Exam, but the week before the exam, as luck would have it…” Sanchi said, lifting up his leg, revealing his cast on his foot,
“...I broke my ankle, sadly I’ll have to wait till next year. Bummer I guess hehe…” Sanchi said, putting down his leg, “You’re trying to get into EI?!?” Natsuki said out loud, “Yep, if anyone has a chance of making it into EI, it’s Sanchi.” I said,
“Alright, I got the day passes, you kids ready?” Mom asked us, waving in the distance, “Alright, I guess I’ll be going too, you two enjoy T.B.A.!” Sanchi said to us, as he walked away with a lively expression, “We’re coming!” I said, as we turned around and ran to Mom,
Bump~
Someone bumps into me, rushing through the crowd and puts a card down at the front desk, “Sign me in please, I’m in a rush.” The person said,
Beep!
“Okay! You’re good to go!” The receptionist said as I caught a glimpse of their hair, “Wait, that was the girl from the cemetery.” I said to myself, “Hey! You there!” I say to her, she glances at me before taking off, “Hey! Wait up!” I said, running off for the second time today, “Koto- You know what, let’s just follow him.” Mom said as Natsuki and her followed me,
I run after her through the crowd, taking a few sharp turns, luckily she was easy to keep track of since she had pink hair, but she was still way more in shape than me, “She *gasp* is a fast runner, augh my side!” I said in pain, while still trying to keep up, “Heh, looks like I lost him-” The person said, looking back at me,
“You got that plugged in?”
“Nope, I need more cord!”
“You got it!”
Two workers said, dragging a cord across the walkway,
Trip~
She trips on the extension cord, slamming her face hard on the hard, tile floors, I ran even faster to check on her “Are you alright?!?” I said, helping her up, she had a black, silk scarf covering her face, “That hurt…” She winced in pain, that’s when I saw blood coming down from her forehead, “You’re bleeding! Let me help! (This is just like in those romance shows! This is a once-in-a-lifetime golden-)” I thought in my head, handing her a napkin, as she took off her scarf, “Ah, thank you- Huh?”
I bend down in a corner, “It’s a guy… It’s a guy… It’s a guy… It’s a guy…” I said in a corner, feeling very embarrassed, “Oh. You thought I was a girl?” He asked me, “I mean… Long, pink hair… Thin physique… I thought this was my golden opportunity…” I said as tears seeped down my face,
“When I dyed my hair this morning, the label said it was magenta, but I guess it came out more pinkish. I was wondering why people were flirting with me and calling me girly names today.” He said, as I got back up from the floor,
I reached into my backpack and pulled out something, “Here, you dropped this earlier.” I said, giving him the box of mochi, “Oh, thanks.” He said, taking the box, “By the way, my name’s Koto, what’s yours?” I asked him, “Yuuya-” He responded to me,
“TENSHI!” Someone yelled in the back, the crowd split to the sound of her voice.
A golden long haired, tall, well built woman with white fluffy headphones, dark gray sleeveless shirt and black baggy pants, I immediately recognised her, “Woah! What is Moon Bunny: Luna doing here?” I said in amazement

“Tenshi, you’re bleeding, what happened?” Luna asked him, “I fell pretty hard, sorry again Master Luna.” Tenshi said to her, “(Master?!?)” I said in thought, “Well it’s too late, your sparring partner had to go on short notice, we’ll have to find someone else for you to fight.” Luna said to Tenshi,
“I could be your sparring partner” I chimed in,
“Alright kid, how strong are you?” Luna asked me, “I could take on a villain.” I said, technically not lying, “By the way, it’s an honor to meet you Luna! My Mom told me the story of how you and her took on a giant obsidian villain in Kagoshima!” I said with my eyes gleaming, “Your Mom? Oh! You must be Ai’s kid, am I right?” Luna said, figuring out who I was, I nodded my head,
“Of course you can fight him then, Ai must’ve seen great potential in you when she adopted you.” Luna said to me, “I.. Guess you could say that.” I said nervously, “The Arena Area is just through that door over there, c’mon let’s go!” Tenshi said, as we walked toward the arena area,

(Somewhere else)
Ms. Inertai and I were following Koto through the crowd, we lost sight of him and ended up at a split path, “You go right, I’ll go left, if we don’t find him, report back here in an half an hour.” Ms. Inertai said to me, as we went our separate ways,
Bump~
“Oh hey!” The person I bumped into said to me, I turned around to see who it was, it was the boy from before, I think his name was Sanchi? “So… Whatcha doin?” Sanchi asked me, “Koto ran off somewhere, I’m trying to find him.” I said, explaining the situation to Sanchi, “Heh, that’s new, back then, Koto would sit down in a corner and stay there until it was time to go home~!” Sanch said, I chuckled a bit when I heard it,
“Well, since you were heading this way anyways, how about I give you a little tour of the complex?” Sanchi asked me, “Sure! Even though I should be focusing on looking for Koto, I’m sure he’ll turn up eventually!” I said, subconsciously slacking off, “Okay! The first stop is…” Sanchi said, as we get to the end of the hallway,
We end up in an open area, with many people seen using their Traits, “This is the Training Area! Where as the name suggests, people train their Traits, here, I’ll show you.” Sanchi said, getting on top of a platform filled with water,
Sanchi walks to the middle, and takes a deep breath.
~Splish~
Suddenly, tiny pillars of water begin to rise from the ground,
~Swirl~
Sanchi first swung his arms in circles, as the water pillars started swirling around him,
~Freeze~
Sanchi then raised his fist, freezing the spiraling pillars solid,
~Drizzle~
Sanchi finished by dropping his fist, making a powerful heatwave, melting the ice, as drops of water made ripples in the water beneath his feet.
~Clap~ ~Applause~
The people started to crowd around Sanchi and started cheering for him,
“Nice one, Sanchi!”
“You’re so cool, Sanchi!”
“I wish I had a Trait like him!”
The crowd said, “Thanks everyone so much!” Sanchi said, getting off of the stage, “So, whaddaya think? Sorry if I was a little bit of a show-off there.” Sanchi asked me, walking up to me, “You were incredible! You have so much control over your Trait!” I said to him,
We continued through the Training Area, chatting along the way, “I was training ever since I was 6. My Dad hired top Trait counselors and trainers to maximize my potential, it’s helped a lot!” Sanchi said, smiling at me, as we continued walking, “By the way, what is the name of your Trait?” I asked Sanchi, he went ahead of me, and started explaining, “My Trait is called…”
—
Sanzo Sanchi
Trait: Thermometer
“He can change the temperature, allowing him to freeze or incinerate someone in seconds.”
—
“One question, how did you make the water go up and make it move around?” I asked Sanchi, “It’s kind of complicated, but simply put, the way I change the temperature is by changing the molecules in the air, and I can manipulate the matter occupying those molecules.” Sanchi said, as we kept walking forward,
“This allows me to sort of bend gas and liquid properties, including water, fire and air, similar to that one cartoon TV show.” Sanchi continued,
“Oh yeah, I can’t manipulate solid objects, because there are no molecules in them, so don’t expect me to earthbend as well.” Sanchi finished as we arrived at a section of the Training Area,
“You don’t have to introduce me to this place, this is a gym right? To train your physical body!” I said with a confident smirk, “You’re exactly right, I mean it was pretty obvious, but good job in your department-” Sanchi said to me, as I walk over to the bench press and get on it,
“Uhm… Natsuki? that’s 100 pounds, I’d recommend a girl like you start around 30-” Sanchi said to me,
~Pump~ ~Pump~ ~Pump~
I started bench pressing the 100 pound weights like it’s nothing, and before Sanchi realized, I did 10 reps, “Phew! That got me sweating a little~!” I said, taking off my hoodie, revealing my well built muscles.
“That was… Impressive! (Dang… She’s built!)” Sanchi said, complimenting me, “Thanks! Hehe~! I work out in my spare time!” I said, as three big, bulky, muscular men walk up behind us,
“Young lady…”
He said with an extremely deep and manly tone, “Hi there! (Who are these guys? They have incredible muscles!)” I said,

Inertai is speed walking around the area with an urgent look on her face, “I’m telling you, when I find that boy, I’m gonna-” Inertai said, pushing through the crowd,
She entered a huge area, with a big arena circle in the middle,
~Intercom Noises~
The intercom sounded, and a lively commentator appeared up on screens around the arena,
“YOYOYO! THE MC IS IN THE BUILD-I-N-G! HOW ARE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS DOING TODAY?!?”
The Master of Ceremonies said, getting the crowd hyped up,
~Cheer!~
The crowd cheered with excitement, “Wooh! (I wonder what the matchup is, they’re using the deluxe platform, which usually has a special arena with it, so this should be a big time match.)” Inertai said to herself,
“In the North, 4-time winner of the Pre-teen T.B.A. Championship, it’s your undefeated champion… THE BOY WITH THE HALO: YUUYA TENSHI!!!”
The MC said, as Yuuya walked out of the North tunnel and stepped onto his platform, the crowd went even more wild, “He must be a big deal, 4 time winner huh?” Inertai said, “You know it, my trainee is the cream of the crop.” Luna said, leaning on the railing with both of her elbows, “Suki!” Inertai said with delight, “It’s been a while, Ai.” Luna said, as they fist bumped.
“AND IN THE SOUTH CORNER…”
The MC was about to announce, “I wonder who’s facing him, it has to be someone with similar power, right?” Inertai said in anticipation, “You’ll find out…” Luna said with a smirk on her face, “What do you mean by that-” Inertai asked,
“In fact, reading this now, this is his first time! MAKING HIS DEBUT, GIVE A WARM WELCOME TO THE RISING STAR: KOTO SEIZOKU!”

I run out into the arena, the light shone brightly on my face, so bright that I took a second to adjust my sight,
“KOTO!”
I looked to my right, and saw Mom in the crowd trying to get my attention, I waved at her, “Why is he out there?” Mom asked Luna, who was standing next to her, “Don’t ask me, he was the one who made the request to spar with Yuuya.” Luna replied, shaking her head, “I’m going to call off this fight-” Mom said, about to take off,
Nab~
“Don’t worry about it, overprotective much?” Luna said, grabbing my Mom, “But… He can’t fight-” Mom said with an anxious look, “Just let the fight happen, the healing pods will make him good as new in a minute.” Luna said, as Mom calmed down, “Fine… It’ll probably only last a couple of minutes.” Mom said, sitting down on the seats, “Have a little faith will ya?” Luna remarked, joining Mom,
“BEFORE WE BEGIN, HERE ARE THE RULES:
1: You will fight until one of you are unable to battle, (Being knocked unconscious, Unable to move, etc) or until either side calls off the battle.
2: You are not allowed to harm either side to a lethal degree, this will result in a suspension, or in cases of multiple offenses, a ban.
3: If the fight escalates to a lethal degree, our referees will judge whether to call off the fight or not, if they do, they will stop the fight immediately, there are no consequences in this.
And since this is a spar, it’ll be a 5 minute match, and the arena requested was…”
The MC said, as the arena floor began to open up, and an arena platform with tall trees appeared in front of us,
“DEEP FOREST!!!”
The MC said, as the Forest platform completely rose to the top, as a timer was counting down from 5 for the match to start,
“5! 4!”
The crowd shouted as I get into a stance, bending my knees, “Gotta show everyone what I’m all about!” I said, hyping myself up,
“3! 2!”
Yuuya is taking deep breaths, preparing himself, “Yuuya, remember your training, he’s my Master’s best friend’s son, so I can’t go easy on him. But should I? This is his first time, so maybe I should.” Yuuya said to himself, “Now should I use Bam and Naga, or should I use Kami?” Yuuya continued to say to himself,
“Well Either way…”
“1…”
“I’ll do my very best!”
“I’ll try my hardest!”
We said simultaneously, a sort of bold, adrenaline-rushing sensation was pumping in both of our hearts,
“BRAWL!!!”
