Konnichiwa

"Ok,this is going too far" Samantha said,cupping Sofia's cheeks."Look at me,I thought we've agreed"

"Well,we agree to disagree" Mirai said."You've made a choice,Samantha"

"Come on guys,We all are doing this because it's a game,but in the real world,if you die,it's over" Samantha said

"We just have to not die" Sofia said,lightly cupping Samantha's cheeks.

"You guys aren't fucking superheroes" Samantha snapped.

"We'll be the judge of that" Sofia said before logging out.

Mirai turned to Samantha and shaked her head before logging out.

As soon as Sofia's consciousness returned,she grabbed her phone and typed:

"To those in this city,let's meet up at the park"

"There are numerous parks in this city" Jessica typed

"Uhm well,let's meet up at the most visited one in two hours"

"Ok" They all replied.

After two hours,Sofia quickly showered and wore a nice dress before stepping out.

She wanted to look badass for her subordinates.This was the first time meeting them.

She needed to dress the part.

Sofia took the subway and met up with her team at the park.

There,she saw girls she didn't recognize.

"Shit,these girls used different avatars" Sofia said as she sat on a bench and relaxed.

This was going to be both mentally and physically taxing.

Sofia took a huge breath before rising.

"Hello,everyone I'm Sofia,your leader," she started as everyone's gazes turned to her.

"I didn't expect her to be this slim" A girl said.

"Me neither" Another concurred.

"Yes" Sofia clapped."Imagination and reality are two very different things.With that out of the way,I'd like you all to introduce yourselves.If Samantha and Mirai are present,maybe they should go first"

A Japanese girl in her 20s  with blue and pink hair stepped forward.She wore a light blue tank top with matching jeans.

"Konnichiwa" She waved as the rest of the girls all looked at her weirdly"Guess you all don't know the meaning.It means hello in Japanese.I'm Mirai" She introduced.

"Seriously,I thought you'd be American" Sofia said as she hugged her.

"Well, technically,I'm Japanese-American" Mirai said.

"Samantha?" Sofia shouted.

"She said she's not joining us in this superhero shit" Mirai said,putting air quotes around the last two words.

"Of course she isn't" Sofia said softly.

For the next twenty minutes,the rest of the girls introduced themselves.

Different reactions followed each introduction,but the most peculiar was when Droyle and Dryle introduced themselves.

"I don't see any difference" Sofia muttered as she stared at the both of them.

They both had long black hair and matching sets of earrings.However,one's hair was longer than the other.

"That's the only difference" Mirai said as she compared their hair length.

"Well, there's also difference in our voice.Mine is a bit high pitched compared to hers" Droyle said.She wore a simple,black mini gown while her twin went for a more casual look.

"Uhm,okay Droyle's the one with the gown" Sofia muttered,trying to commit the information to memory."With the introductions out of the way,we can finally talk business" Sofia said,sitting on the bench.

"Uhm ma'am,don't you think this place is a little small for all of us" someone voiced.

"Ok,then let's move this somewhere else.Anyone with suggestions"

"I run a bakery with ample space" Another spoke.

"Are you sure we're not intruding?" Mirai asked.

"Of course not.It's undergoing repairs ,so it's closed for the day"

"Ok then,how far is it?" Sofia asked.

"A hundred metres or so from here" The lady whose name was Phoebe said.

Phoebe led the way as they walked to her bakery.

"So I'm thinking this palace should be our base" Mirai said cheekily.

"Base for what?" Droyle asked

"Base of operations.Have you forgotten that we're vigilantes?" Mirai frowned.

"To be,Mirai.We aren't vigilantes yet.There are a lot of things to do.We need masks so people don't recognize us,and we probably should wear black clothes so as to blend in.I will also need the names and occupations of all of you" Sofia said,realizing the magnitude of what they were about to start.

"You don't have to do it alone.Everyone here has carefully weighed the pros and cons ,and we're with you all the way...we want to change this sick, twisted society." Phoebe said shyly.She looked like someone who didn't speak ,but she needed to stand up ,or else people wouldn't look her way.

"Great but the issue of identification—"

"We can just send all the information to the group chat" Mirai offered

"I can create an app that can show all that information as well as our current location" Dryle spoke for the first time.

"Really?! That'd be very nice" Sofia smiled.

"Okay,I'll say what needs to be done on the group chat and the time for our next meeting.Hopefully,we should be all set by then" She said.

"Okay" They all agreed.

None of them went straight home;rather,they decided to throw some sort of introduction party to get to know each other.

"Where do you think you're going?" Mirai said, blocking Sofia as she stood to leave.

"I'm leaving" Sofia said.

"Come on,let's get to know each other"Mirai said,holding her hand and dragging her to sit.

"Just thirty minutes" Sofia frowned.

"Alright" Mirai smiled softly as she sat opposite her."You're really cute"

"Thanks.You're cute as well"

"Aww,is that like a confession?!"

"What? No"

"Of course I'll marry you" Mirai said dramatically.

"You're so loud" Sofia laughed.

"Yeah,so tell me who Sofia is" Mirai said with twinkled eyes.

"Well, Sofia is a lady with impeccable style and the leader of a girl gang in rheurym" She said,playing along.

"I know all that stuff.Tell me things I don't know,your body count? Bra size?"

"You're really weird,you know that?" Sofia laughed.

"I do" Mirai responded

Sofia ended up staying throughout the entire party.Sometime during the party,someone brought alcoholic drinks ,and she ended up getting drunk.

During the next two days,things went as planned as all of them sent their information to the group chat.Similarly,dryle succeeded in creating the app , but the only thing left was a name.
