Rinka, Doa, Minaro and Maya are all eating breakfast while sitting down at the wooden table in the kitchen. They hear knocking at the door, so Rinka heads to the door and opens it.

Sumairu and Ashi walk past Rinka and into the room.

Sumairu: Hey! So did you guys do the mission yesterday?

Rinka turns around and looks at Sumairu.

Rinka: Yeah, we did.

Sumairu turns around and looks at Rinka.

Sumairu: Did anything cool happen?

Imma-Ite stands up.

Imma-Ite: Yeah, we kicked some ass at that batte!

Rinka: Yeah, I guess we did.

Sumairu places his hand on Rinka's shoulder.

Sumairu: Any info on your void skill?

Rinka: Um, I can bring it out on command now.

Sumairu: Oh? Really?

Rinka pulls his katana from his pocket and holds it up.

Sumairu: Rinka, how do you keep an entire katana in your pocket?

Rinka: Oh, It's my other skill "Big Pocket." My pockets have infinite space...anyways watch this.

Rinka looks at his sword.

"Void Attack 1, Twintails."

The black gas appears. Sumairu looks happy.

Sumairu: You really can bring out on command. You used that technique I told you about?

Rinka: Well yeah, you told me to try it so I did.

Rinka: Also for some reason I can also turn into lightning and create a giant black chain.

Sumairu: Lighting? Black chain? You can do all of that with one skill?

Rinka: Yeah.

Sumairu: Well that's good to know.

Sumairu walks away from Rinka and towards the table.

Sumairu: Did you guys kill or capture the skiller?

Doa, who still had her dusk sweater on, looks off her phone and at Sumairu.

Doa: We killed them. It was multiple.

Sumairu: Wow, multiple? Did you take any skills?

Imma-Ite points at Minaro.

Imma-Ite: Mineral, I'm pretty sure he got the skill.

Sumairu gives a thumbs-up to Minaro.

Minaro: I didn't get it.

Sumairu: Oh.

Rinka: Hey...Sumairu.

Sumairu looks at Rinka who is standing beside him.

Sumairu: Hmm?

Rinka: How do I say this? Uh, I was somehow also able to see the past of one of the skillers using the void.

Everyone looks at Rinka.

Sumairu: Their past?

Rinka: Yeah, only a little though. I only got to see a couple of memories.

Sumairu: Never heard of a skill doing that. I don't know what to say. I guess I'll keep it noted?

Sumairu: Anyways, I've got some news!

Everyone looks at Sumairu.

Sumairu: So, my belief that you guys can take skillers down has increased even more, so I want you guys to split up and start taking them down 2 at a time. 2 teams!

Everyone stays silent.

Sumairu: Since Minaro and Rinka are the ones I'm focused on, I'll let them pick who is on their team. They'll be the leaders.

Sumairu looks at Rinka and then at Minaro.

Sumairu: So who picks first.

Rinka: Uh, Minaro can pick first.

Everyone looks at Minaro. He's silent for a few seconds.

Minaro: I want Maya, Imma-Ite and Bukkaru on my team.

Sumairu: Cool, and you Rinka?

Rinka stares at Doa, Doa stares at him.

Rinka: I don't really get to pick since he took everyone. I'll take Doa.

Sumairu grabs Ashi's shoulder.

Sumairu: Hey don't forget, Ashi is also here.

Rinka: Oh, then I guess I'll take her too.

Sumairu: Alright then! The teams have been decided, feel free to go on the missions whenever you'd like.

Imma-Ite stands up.

Imma-Ite: Hold on! I have questions for everyone except Sumairu, and Ashi. This is to help me understand you better.

Everyone looks at Imma-Ite.

Imma-Ite: Where did you guys learn to fight, we kicked a whole lot of ass out there!

Imma-Ite looks proud.

Rinka: Minaro and I were taught to fight when we were younger, we even fought each other sometimes.

Maya: My family used to go on hunts, so they taught me to fight.

Imma-Ite looks at Doa. He has an unamused expression.

Imma-Ite: Doo, You didn't actually fight that much, all you did was shoot bullets.

Doa: Well, shooting is my specialty, but I have strong kicks and punches too, just ask Minaro, I beat him up back at Maligan Mountain.

Minaro nods his head.

Sumairu grins.

Sumairu: Everyday I like you guys even more!

Sumairu leaves the room.

Imma-Ite points at Minaro.

Imma-Ite: Why'd ya put me on your team, we haven't even talked to each other yet!

Minaro: I just wanted you on my team. Is there a problem with that?

Imma-Ite: Well no, I just wasn't expecting it? I thought you would have picked the people you first talked to.

Minaro shakes his head.

Everything becomes silent.

...

A few hours have gone by, Rinka, Minaro and Imma-Ite are sitting on the couch.

Rinka: Anything cool happened to you guys in the last 4 hours?

Minaro: I've learned more about my rifts.

Rinka: Have you?

Minaro: Yeah, I can do a funny little thing now, let me show you.

Minaro's rifts appear beside him. He sticks his hand into one of the rifts and pulls out a blue sweater equal to Rinka's.

Minaro: Here, since the sweater you got on now got ripped a little from the latest battle.

Rinka grabs the sweater.

Rinka: It's not just space stuff that comes out of your rifts?

Rnka removes his current sweater and puts on the new one.

Minaro: Today I learned It's more than just space stuff, I can bring out almost anything if I have the energy.

Imma-Ite: Anything? That sounds strong. Really strong.

Minaro: Yeah, but I'm gonna stick with only bringing out space stuff.

Rinka: How did you learn you could bring out more stuff?

Minaro: Oh, I was in the restroom and there was no toilet paper. So I tried to use my rifts to get some and fortunately it worked.

Imma-Ite: Hey, can you also bring out money and valuable things?

Minaro: Of course I can. Now that I think about it..

Minaro sticks his hand into a rift and pulls out two phones. He hands one of the phones to Rinka.

Minaro: This one's yours.

Rinka taps on the phone, the phone turns on and the wallpaper is a picture of Rinka in a sushi costume.

Rinka: Wow, It really is.

Imma-ite looks suprised

Imma-Ite: Wait so, if you can bring out money and valuable stuff, why don't you?

Minaro: Well, I don't want to. It would waste my energy and it'd be annoying to carry around. I have my phone, that's all I need, I'll bring that stuff out when I actually need it.

Imma-Ite: You could make everyone rich though!

Minaro: I don't wanna make everyone rich though. I just wanna play games on my phone.

Imma-Ite laughs and grins.

Imma-Ite: You're a funny guy, Mineral.

…

Another 4 hours have gone by, it's around 1 AM now.

Doa walks out of her bedroom, she's wearing pink pajamas. She spots the kitchen lights on, Minaro and Rinka are sitting at the wooden table. She walks towards them.

Doa: What are you guys doing?

Rinka and Minaro stare at her.

Rinka: Hi.. We weren't tired, so we came to eat a late night bagel.

Doa: I haven't been able to sleep either.

Rinka: Maybe you're hungry? I can make you a bagel if you want.

Doa: Um, yeah I'll have a bagel, thanks.

Rinka stands up and heads to the fridge. Doa takes a seat. Minaro looks at the floor.

Doa: Hey, Minaro, do you smile at all? You always have such a serious expression.

Minaro looks at Doa. He's silent for a few seconds.

Minaro: Only when I want to...

Rinka returns to the table and hands Doa a bagel, she looks at him.

Doa: Oh, that was really fast.

Rinka: I've made a lot of bagels before, which I guess made me better at making them faster.

Rinka sits down. Everyone stays in silence as they eat their bagels.

Doa looks at Rinka.

Doa: Hey Rinka, you've gotten so friendly around us but you've only known us for a couple of days, why?

Rinka: Uh, I guess I just like you guys? Maya is calm and nice and Imma-Ite's kinda funny.

Doa: Nothing to say about me?

Rinka: You're… uh, I actually don't know what I like about you.

Doa: I figured, I haven't really done much.

Rinka: I can find what I like about you I think.

Rinka extends his hand towards Doa for a handshake. He smiles at her.

Rinka: You wanna be friends?

Doa: Huh?

Rinka: What? Did I say something weird?

Doa laughs a little.

Doa: No, it's just it was unexpected. No one's ever asked me to be their friend, everyone in my school hated me, so I made no friends.

Rinka: Really? What the fuck... Why?

Doa: It's a long story. I'll tell you another day.

Doa grabs Rinka's hand and shakes it.

Doa: It's the first time someone's asked me to be their friend.

Doa smiles.

Doa looks at Minaro.

Doa: You wanna be my friend too?

She extends her arm towards Minaro for a handshake.

Minaro shakes her hand.

She smiles.

….

It's the next morning now.

Maya and Imma-Ite walk out of the bedrooms, they notice Doa and Minaro resting their heads on the table, fast asleep while Rinka is sleeping on the floor, he had fallen off his chair.

Imma-Ite: Yo, what are they doing out here?

Maya: What the hell?

Maya walks over to the table and shakes everyone until they are awake.

Doa yawns. Rinka ruffles his hair, Minaro moves his hair away from his eyes.

Maya: What are you guys doing here?

Rinka: Uh, We fell asleep here I think, I guess Minaro, Doa and I got really tired.

Rinka looks at Ashi then at Doa.

Rinka: This is gonna sound out of the blue but I think we should go on another mission today!

Doa: We just woke up and you're already talking about missions. We can go on the mission any other day.

Rinka: Yeah, but I just feel like doing it today. But of course if you and Ashi don't want to we don't have to.

Doa: You know what? We can do it today.

Doa stands up and stretches.

Doa: I should be working out everyday, but I've kinda forgotten to, so hunting those skillers should make up for that.

Doa walks towards her bedroom.

Rinka: Oh, cool...Ashi do you want to go on the mission today?

Ashi stands nervously. She looks at the floor while talking.

Ashi: Yes. But I'm still not that good at fighting.

Rinka: That's fine.

Doa comes out of her bedroom wearing her dusk hoodie.

Rinka looks at her.

Rinka: By the way, Doa, what skiller are we looking for next? Is there any info on them?

Doa: The next skiller we should look for is known as Rank 4, It's rumored that she lives in the biggest house in Wepo town. They're isn't much evidence to back that up though.

Rinka: So we should try to find the biggest house first?

Doa: Yeah, also in the blurry pictures the website provides, Rank 4 has purple hair.

Doa calls out for Bukkaru, Bukkaru teleports and appears in front of her, he sits there waiting patiently for her to say something.

Doa: Please teleport us to Wepo town.

Bukkaru meows several times. He doesn't move.

Minaro stands up.

Minaro: Bukkaru asked who's being teleported.

Doa looks at Minaro.

Doa: You speak cat?

Minaro: I don't know, but I understand his meows.

Doa looks back at Bukkaru.

Doa: Please teleport Rinka, Ashi and I to Wepo town.

Ashi, Rinka and Doa are enveloped in a purple ball and then a few seconds later they are in Wepo town.

Wepo town, a town in a big majestic forest where all the buildings are built in trees and on top of mountains.

Doa, Rinka and Ashi stand close to each other examining the area.

Rinka: Alright, let's go look for Rank 4!

…

On a mountain in Wepo town is the biggest house, inside it..

Yutsu sits on a sofa drinking from a water bottle. He puts it down on a table next to him.

Rank 4, a woman with purple hair and violet eyes walks into the room he's in and looks at him.

Yutsu: One of them is here. Go introduce yourself to him.

"Does he have people with him, teammates?"

Yutsu: Most likely. So be careful, remember your job is to make him stronger and then run away. We don't want him to die.

"What about his teammates, can I kill them?"

Yutsu: Um… uh, yes, if you really need to. Sometimes the death of a friend can make someone stronger.

Yutsu: Are you planning to kill one of them? I thought you didn't want to kill anyone anymore.

"I'm not gonna kill anyone, I was just curious if I could."

Yutsu looks away from her.

"I heard that Rank 1, 2 and 3 were killed."

Yutsu: Sadly they were.

Yutsu sighs.
