Najime lift his chicken popcorn bag higher and swallow all of them that fall to his mouth

As Tasof no longer can eat because of his stomach full, but still proceed to finish it by multiple short break.

Zashi take his last exhausted chew.

“So everyone, before I join myself into Supernatural Agency here, there’s this guy with a purple hair asking me about my goal on this line of work, now I’m actually curious what type of answer you all give it to them.”

He look over Najime who still can’t enough swallow more for.

” Oh me?, well funny enough I can’t really remamber why.”

Tasof add afterward.

” Nw too, but if you ask me it’s probably save peoples and show human that even Hybrid like me can be trusted and label as kind, how about you Zashi?”

“Me well, I don’t really have a good reason to join this agency, but is not I got good things to do right at the moment” He give his reason not in pleasant way

After a while, Zashi will get the team gathered for him to showcasing each of his swords/katanas

“This one call” Zashi lift one of his beautiful designed katana with blue tsuka.

“Time Divider, which it may seems like my weakest sword, since I introduc this one first, but trust me everyone will call you a cheater if they find out what thus one can do.”

Najime let out a suprise gasp.

“Zashi, why you already give a strong start?, now you just making me nervous.”

Juna nod at him, and turn back to look over the katana.

“So what that katana does?”

Zashi lower the katan now admire the shape of it.

“What it does is, is actually can make time slower for me, and the way it works is each time I swing crossing reality, it will make time outside my range slower while to all peoples, time seems to move perfectly fine, and each time I swinging it will seems like I getting faster and faster when I just move at my regular speed, but of course the streak can be cancel out, once there’s a interruption.”

Tasof grip his fist together.” What?!, how can such a sword like this exist!, it almost like it can manipulate the reality itself!”

Juna waste no time to point at his other sword thay capture her eyes.

“How about that one, the one with black blade and wrap in purple paracord?”

“Ah, thus one called is…, the ‘Sun’s Scar’ , what it does is, it synergize my blue flame and turn it to be something more devastating into full potential, and can reshape it, in the form of slices, sometimes explosion.”

Najime seems can’t handle the awesomeness that he witnessing.” Oh shut up now, you name it Sun’s Scar and it can do all this crazy stuff, now I really want you to use it, to show me that crazy explosion!”

Just as the rest of the member thought Zashi was done, he begin to introduce another with teasing sentence.

“And this one called…

”

“WHAT?

THERE’S THE THIRD ONE?!!” They all shouted together.

…

“Yes.” Zashi grin lift the green bladed sword in horizontal position.

“Soul Crystal, which metaphorically or mythological trapped thousands of great spirit warrior from the past, in great battle, and I can use this to draw soul energy from it, even the spirit warriors, partially, I still practice it.”

The reaction from his team seems surprisingly maintain this time.

“Wow, alright, not bad, not bad.”

Zashi suddenly introducing the last one.

“And finally the fourth one, the last but not least ‘Dark Cluster’ abilty to absrob light and bend darkness into destruction energy.”

All the members jaw drop in silent for a moment.

Juna start to stressing out with Zashi situation.

“What there’s four of them?, how do you decide to use every each one of them?”

“Iit depends on situation, on which sword combo that I want to use, but sometimes I just use four of them, when the things getting critical.”

Zashi smile widely knowing his sentence is going to raise another question

“What?, what’s that supposed to mean?”

Zashi lay back with a smirk on his face.

“Well the thing is I have special ability to use four of my swords at the same time by duplicating my hands, give me four arms to swinging.”

Everyone was shocked and speechless

Najime shake his head.

“Geez Zashi, just how many power do you have?,”

“I don’t think that’s possible for hybrid to have this much power…” The question hang in the room quietly.

“Maybe, I, I just lucky I guess.” Zashi respond awkwardly, try not to bring his past.

But the question doesn’t stop there.

Najime ask with full hope, he will get another intresting answer.

“Did you name for each of attack son each of your swords?

Or when you combine it together.”

Zashi look around, unable to lie.

“What?, not really.”

Najime let out the sounds of disappointment.

“Really?

why not?, that would be so cool.”

Zashi cross his arms together.

“I will consider it, but I gotta say, I still don’t get a chance to ask each of your powers yet

Najime suddenly floating up with exicmment.

“Oh let me go first, as you guys might know I’m Enenra Hybrid, I have abiltiy to be untouchable and turn myself to be a smoke and make peoples sleep with it.”

Juna answer after “I have spiritual power that allow me to rising a pillar from underground.”

Tasof draw his simple silver blade.

“And as for me I can teleport through abyss portal and emerge at anywhere I want, and my silver blade are design to instant kill any of my enemy if they’re in shock, making it good for stealth.”

Zashi intrigued hearing each of their power.

those power are really cool I can’t wait to see you guys in the action too.”

Juna says quietly.

“And as for Namiko…”

Suddenly Namiko open the door with a serious face, shifted after seeing the mess they’re making.

“What the hell you guys do our place?”

All of them start looking at each other

Namiko try to compose herself.

“I just being ordered that we all are going to attend a big mission and here all of you guys do whole I’m not here is eating and having fun?

, you should be prepared yourself for upcoming battle, now quit messing around!”

Najime float closer to persuade her.” Namiko, can you calm yourself down?, is not like we aware of ‘that mission’ you talking about, and where are you for the rest of this evening anyway?”

“I was practicing and Increase my potential, my strength and abiltiy, isn’t obvious, I have, no time talking about unimportant stuff, and before I dicuss about this new mission, I need all of you to clean all this mess right now!” Namiko give her order out loud.

Everyone grumping dismissing her order.

“What do we really have to clean it now, that’s lame.”

“i say now you lazyheads!” Namiko keep her authority clear.

Najime glance at Zashi and get some funny idea, “Zashi…

oh yeah Zashi!

can’t you just, summon your shadow clone of yourself?

to help and clean up our mess?”

Zashi lean back with disgust.

“Eh?”

Juno jump out with agreements.” Oh yeah I forget about that , your shadow clone will be helpful right now!

, it could save us some of our energy for tomorrow mission!”

“Huh?” He still can’t bealive what they’re suggesting.

Tasof chuckle at the idea.

“Hell yeah, that sounds like a good use of power, after this we don’t need to be worry again to clean this apartment!”

“That’s right, and maybe it can help with so many things too like do the cleaning and maybe cooking.” Najime listing all the task casually

“I wonder if we can use him to-”

Zashi finally speak up “No you can’t!, my shodow clone can’t be use to do chore okay?”

Namiko excitement turn to frown “What why not?, you get whole abitiy to do that!”

“Because I only use my shadow clone in the battle and only for ‘special occasion’ , just like from afternoon, and if use it to do something that require it more than a minute, I can’t use my shadow clonr for the rest of the day, so let’s just clean all this stuff up, and you guys should be ashamed to even come up with the idea to use my shadow clone as a slave, it’s a fighter not your maid okay?

” Zashi explained with tight face.

Everyone disappointed at Zashi refusal.

“Very well let’s clean this all stuff off.”

“Agh this is no fun at all.”

Zashi smile to see them accepting his boundaries

They begin their cleaning operation, throw all the trash away, as Zashi was cleaning up the table, he were accidentally drop one of the glasses down and suddenly his shadow clone catching it from falling.

And when he turn to face him, his eyes was wide to see his shadow clone was looking differently, instead of mimicking his look, the shadow strangely remind him of someone and it was his old friend, Mazaki.

At the time they’re done cleaning the whole place out,

They gather up on the table, listening to important mission for tomorrow.

Namiko start the discussion with tough tone.

“Listen here everyone , tomorrow mission is pretty simple, all we need to do is cover up harbor section on B side, tomorrow was exactly when Scarlett clan will delivery their seed across Yohoma City, we just don’t know which ship that actually have the most seed, and we need to wish that we get the less one

“Huh why is that?” Najime raise the question

“Because-”

Namiko notice Zashi was zoning out from the distance

“Oi Zashi, are with us?, Zashi!!”

Zashi’s mind snap to reality.

“Oh yes, yes I heard you.”

“Really can you repeat what I said?”

Namiko got her eyes all on him.

Zashi give his awkward smile at Namiko until she sighs “Listen tomorrow our mission is going to be cover up the harbor and take down the dealer before the shio arrive carrying thus specific seeds that we can’t let the bad guys have it from the strongest member of this gang member, traveling and try to control over the world by planting this seeds,”

Namiko explain futher with her animated around.

” If this seed get plant on Yohoma, the whole city is going to be corrupted and spread across the continan and t we are going to have serious problems, there might be an apocalypse that came after us, and the motive on why they do this is pretty unclear, but all we know is thus gang member need to be stop, and I need each of you to be focus for tomorrow mission, and our best luck is hoping that main ship is not going to our harbor, because we are not strong enough to face the strongest members.

”

” Garuchi and Miyomi.” she pull out her tablet to show their face in detail

“This two Hybrids has already killed over thirty four of our agents over last this two years, and I don’t think none of us will survive to fight them, Mr.

Suogira and his team is going to taking care of it hoping they might go to that harbor, the one they speculate where the main ship that has both of them inside.”

Zashi begin to yawn from hearing Namiko explanation.

“What’s a big deal if we got the wrong ship?, I can handle Garuchi and Miyomi all by myself, after all I am One Shot King remamber?”

Namiko face turn red instantly.

“Zashi!, can you please take this seriously?, I don’t care how strong and powerful you actually think you’re, but this isn’t something you should take lightly and overconfidently for , you need to always prepare and never let your gaurd down, I don’t want your stupidity cause me to lose one of my teammate, even you’re new here, I’m still looking” forward to work with you for…

long journey…

Zashi were stunt a bit to hear over her stament.

“You mean it aren’t you?, I understood.”

Namiko eventually speaks again in softer tone.

I don’t think you alone is going to be enough to win agasint them.”

Najime step foward with strong bealive.

“Then we are going to fight them as a team with out power!

five of us combine surely can take down at least one of them, this is our chance that we cna be more than just back up team, come.

On guys.”

Juno nod while grin.

“Exactly!, and we will be known as top department that caught and defeat them with all our will.”

“And after we are done, we going to have a big briquettes together.” Tasof suggested making the whole team cheer up with full spirit.

“And tomorrow all of us going to be the first time 𝗭𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗶 saw us with our power in the action” Yeay!!!” everyone cheering up and exited for what’s coming to them for tomorrow , while Namiko was just shaking her head and smiling “You guys such a bunch of idiots.”

On the next everyone was already on their suit and ready to go to harbor.

Zashi notice there’s a rain on the sky after everyone get inside the car.

Najime ask sitting next to him “Zashi, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing…” his eyes still tilt up on the sky.

Without any futher they’re headed toward to harbor

Namiko aware for Zashi being quite and calls him out.”

” Anything you want to tell us Zashi?, did you sense something unusual?”

“Not really, I just wanted to be ready on my first mission, I don’t want to screw anything up, that’s all.”

Namiko smirk.

“seems like you take my advice, don’t worry, I bet everything is going to go pretty well.”

“And how you can be so sure of that?”

“Because I already can read now you already step ahead from us, didn’t you?, it doesn’t matter what happen today, because we got someone strong like you to have our back.”

Zashi only 𝗶 smile from Namiko compliment.

After a long ride they finally arrive to harbor area and proceeding their their mission to clean place.

Najime make his first move to release a smoke that make make few of gaued fell to sleep

There’s one gaurd patrolling the deck near the warehouse unaware of dake portal from behind him and get stab by Tasof, as he carry his body imsdke the portal.

Namiko was running around lifting few barrel and throw them at the enemy,

She almaot get shot from the roof, but luckily Juna immediately block them with her rising pillar canes from the ground.

Juna take a risky path crossing the ocean with her pillar serve as a platform for her to hopping on another to deliver her strike one the last guy

Zashi came late just as planned to see his teammate using each of their abilities.

“Is that everyone?”

Namiko respond with one guy she already tied up.

“No, you know me I always keep one alive for a bait, and let the boat came inside this building, and if you did a good job we will make sure to keep you alive,

“No I would never do that!” The man shouted, challenging Namiko toleration.

Namiko start to slam him to the ground and turn him upside down to slowly buried his face on ocean.

“Okay, okay I do it!”

Zashi glance back face his team.

“Not bad there guys, that was awesome and I see you Juna, I already pictured you has create many strategic ideas with your ability alone.”

Juna smile shyly, can’t hanw the compliment

“Oh thank you Zashi, , this power inside of me, was really a gift, and I’m really looking forward to combine our power and strength together.”

Najime punch his back teasint .

“And today we finally get to see Zashi blue flame on action, for the first time, just make sure you don’t accidentally aiming at us.,

“Don’t worry, I never have an experience to burn my buddy and anyone yet, all we need to do is stopping this peoples, and take their evil seed away, and I don’t think blue flame was necessary, but I’ll see what I can do.”

After a while they all take a seprete location guiding the place make sure they don’t see anything suspicious from outside, while Zashi and Najime was just sitting next to each other inside the warehouse.

” Say Zashi, do you ever wonder why there’s some peoples on this world are just normal human, and then they’re some peoples with spiritual power and here we are, the most hideous one, a Hybrid?

Zashi give a long pause, his question totally caught him off guard.

“Well that was something that I can’t understand myself, but I’m just happy enough to get a second chance to be accepted, actually I got too many chances be alive as for today, and I don’t know how many luck that I still have left, but I won’t waste it, not anymore…”

” Now that you put on that way, I don’t think I really care rather if I was a hybrid or not, but is just a thought.” Najime soea in shaken voice, different than his usual loud persona.

Zashi chuckle a little.

“Everyone has their own challenge Najime, but an old friend of me use to say the more peoples that you have in your life, the easiest your life become, and right now, I’m still feel like on the edge, but four of you, holding me on that edge from falling, so I might aswell just stay here for a moment.

”

Najime smiling from hearing his thoughtful words.

” Ok that’s enough guys, get in your position, it seems I got a report, that tell us we got some company, everyone get on position.” Namiko give her order, as she holding the last guy as hostage

Tasof and Juno get inside the warehouse after they cleanup the evidence.

Alrvw8vet thier weapon ready to face upcoming threat, and soon they start hearing couple of footstep, as five of them remaining silent inside the building.

The sounds of footsteps finally stop give them a moment of silent before chaos.

Zashi can sense something was about to coming.

“Everyone stand do-”

Suddenly the warehouse being storm by bullets came rapidly in fast rate leaving no one to react in time.

Their body was shaking up for getting hit by countess of shot that came like rain.

Namiko try to pull any obstacle to block the special bullets but the bullet are too simply to strong, and be able to get through several objects, killing her and everyone else in the building.

The shooting continues, making sure nobody can escape from inside until someone hold the to stop.

And that happens to be Garuchi and Miyomi standing next to him, staring over the werehouse enjoying the massacre they occur, sensing no life in that building.
