The Revolution

"That's why we need you sir. Yokohama would go down like the submarines if we don't do anything."

Mr. Fukuchi stroked his white mustache.

"I never said I wasn't going to be a part of this. If I wasn't, then I wouldn't have tried to convince Mr. Fitzgerald would I?"

"Enough with the philosophical talk. I already have the Special Division and the government in close range. Ango said Francis should be arriving at the HQ sometime this morning, which means I have to go."

"Why are you the one going?"

"Because that's my call. I'm going to stop Francis from plummeting Yokohama in the oceans."

"My, my. That's a bold promise you're carrying on your shoulders. Do you think you have what it takes?"

"I don't have much of a choice sir."

"Everyone has a choice. We just put ourselves in the spotlight and feel we can't back down or else we'll be ridiculed."

"That, but mainly because I want to stop this from happening. I'm going to take Ango's words and appease Francis. If all fails, then like you said, everyone has a choice, and that, I'll kill him."

"Now that took a dark turn."

He sniffed before nodding.

"Can you tell me about his ability? That information is very useful."

"I don't know too much about it, but during the meeting he did mention it a few times."

"Let's see." The man's eyes darted to the left corners of his cornea. He was trying to remember the events.

"His ability's name is called The Great Fitzgerald. It grants him the power to convert objects based on money value as a part of his offense and defense stats. He also gains power based on his colleges network."

"So it boosts his powers and strength. I'm guessing everyone is rich."

"Yes, which makes it worst for us."

"Great. We need the others to know about this. Speaking of the others, where are they?"

"Teruko is off on the shores to monitor anymore trespassers. Tecchou and Jouno are monitoring the streets when you left. Taichihara, I don't know much."

"The others must have come a bit later because I haven't spotted any of them. And when I was navigating to the HQ, I came in contact with Taichihara through my walkie talkie."

I showed him the communication device. The lights sparkled in his eyes.

"Your glove, what happened to it? Did you activate your ability?"

"Yeah, while I was trying to extract information from the same woman I've seen yesterday, she attacked me with her ability, but I was able to put her down."

"I see."

"I was trying to intimidate her with my saber. Next thing, bullets pierced through my back from behind. It was one of her accomplice."

"Do you know the names of both?"

"No, I get the feeling they want to remain anonymous so it'll be harder to track them down."

"How smart. Oh where's your hat?"

'That's right. I blew away from activating my ability. I didn't have the time to check for it because I had to escape.'

"It blew away from I was combating with the woman, but don't worry. It'll eventually show up. It's not really important."

"I shouldn't waste anymore of your time. If there's nothing else that needs to be discussed, you're dismissed."
