Shadow's Light

Returning 'Home'

Hatsu's  POV

The smell of cherry blossom filled my nose. The familiar warm wind swept across my face, pulling my medium length midnight hair. This was Mikado City, this was my so-called home. Well, it can only be home if my team and I can accomplish our goals. Considering our imagination, chances aren't so high.

"Hat-chan, come on lets go. I'm hungry, and my allergies are acting up." I hear a voice beside me ring its sarcastic tone.

"Ah Chiyoko, what exactly do you want to eat?" I smiled at the petite 14 year old girl next to me.

"I want sushi, the GOOD kind." the girl jumped up and down from excitement, dreaming about food.

"Chiyoko, you are never going to grow up." our operator laughed coldly, closing her hazel eyes.

"Whaa-" Chiyoko's blue eyes widened, "Suyime, like you're going to grow up!" she huffed turning her back to our operator.

I swear my team was a rollercoaster, well I guess thats why they're my team. A combination of rollercoasters can be scary, yet in a way it works for us. "Guys, don't fight. Suyime you shouldn't say that about Chiyoko, you're four years older. Set an example for her. Chiyoko you shouldn't say anything bad either, so don't look so smug!"

"Well Chiyoko calling me by my first name proves that she's a child." I heard a grumble from Sumiye. Oh no, this is not going to end well is it? The fact that my team was probably the most stubbornness people you will ever meet, was never good when they fought each other.

"Well then why did you call me by my first name huh? Lets face it, none of us likes our last names, you don't either." Chiyoko snapped her calm blue eyes now wild like a dangerous ocean.

"Guys lets go! I'm bored, I wan't something interesting to happen!" I heard our last teammate announce loudly, lowering down her music from her headphones. "We just got here and I'm dieing of boredom. I might as well just head back to, 'the cage' as I like to call it." I heard her faint music silently fading and her voice showing how impatient she was.

"Ehh Honoka, what do you propose you do then since your so bored?" I questioned amused at the tall 16 year old standing in front of me.

I heard the familiar sound of an alarm and warning coming everywhere. "Well Honoka, it seems like your wish was granted, did you use your side effect?" Sumiye asked cautiously while setting up her computer.

"Huh, no I was about to convince you to buy me an album.....but this works too." Honoka shrugged as all of us transformed into our suits.

I felt the wave of transformation roll through my body. My black leggings and black jean jacket with my teams logo and leader logo on the shoulder. The familiar feeling of my black combat boots and my white t-shirt made me smile. What amazed me was that Border couldn't even create this advanced triggers, and yet a 14 year old girl named Chiyoko can.

"We need to update our outfits and weapons, Chiyoko you need to put in new designs." Honoka announced putting in her special headphones, making it look like a spike was coming out of her ears. Her long dark brown hair was now cut short, and dark brown doe eyes filled with excitement.

"You guys don't want all black anymore?" I asked looking down at my outfit. I mean, it was simple and casual clothing, thats what I liked about it.

"No, I mean I'm all for it. I just want to improve the look you know!" she gave me a thumbs up with her black and blue polished nails. Of course Honoka would say that, she was complaining about our outfit for a few weeks now, claiming it should show our personality more.
