2.01: Red Riding Killer

BOOM!!!

Uraka sent Josuke flying down the hall as Franco and Tedashii sat and watched.

"YEAAH!!!!" 

The whole guild joined in on the chaos, sparring indoors without worrying about damaging their possessions.

"Remind me why are we here again?" Tedashii asked.

"Well, he was on your list of visiting…so here we are…" Franco replied.

"I understand, speaking of which…THEY HAVE A WHOLE SIHEYUAN AS THEIR HEADQUARTERS!!!!"

"SHUT!" 

Everything went quiet as Uraka spoke. To their surprise, nothing was destroyed. "…WHAT?! How did you guys not even make a dent?!"

"Our healer is also a wizard, so we have that spell on every time…this happens," Josuke said.

"To think Brittany's boyfriend came to visit us," Floria said as she patted Tedashii on his back.

"I AM NOT HER BOYFRIELD!!"

"It's okay, dude; the whole school has already seen the two of you. If anything, I'm happy for you."

"Are you taking this guy for her boyfriend?" Bruce Nakamura interrupted, for his envy was up to the roof. "Clearly, she's just using him for a publicity stunt or something…HE IS NOT A BETTER BACHELOR FOR HER THAN ME!"

"YOU?!" Seijou Cassoule confronted. "SHE WANTS A CAVALIER, LIKE ME!"

"FOOLS!!" Niko joined in as well. "I HAVE BETTER LOOKS THAN THE BOTH OF YOU!! AND I GOT TWO SWORDS!!"

"NOBODY CARES, NIKO!!"

The whole guild attacked him, and another brawl took place.

…

They shifted to Uraka's room as they tried to ignore the commotion in the main hall. "… aren't you gonna stop them?" Tedashii asked.

"That is something for me to worry about; it is about to end anyway," Uraka responded.

Tedashii and Franco stared at each other right before they heard the bell. 

RING!!

"…"

The house went dead silent without even the sound of footsteps. "Perfect."

"Whoa, what the hell happened?" Franco asked.

"The game is on, so I requested silence as I watched it," he said while increasing the volume on the TV. "We have an ancient clock in the middle of our base, accessible to everyone in the guild and easy to set alarms. Whenever someone has an upcoming event or needs peace, they set the time, and the whole guild will be alerted."

"Whoa, that really is a smart idea," Tedashii said.

"That's one reason I appreciate this team. Not only are we the most in one squad, but we respect the rules set under this roof. That was the message I set in stone on the day we met."

Tedashii could not picture Uraka in this light of mentality. A person who resorted to violence to get things done, immersing a rule this strict. "Hey, Uraka? What was the hardest thing you dealt with as the captain."

"…" He turned away from him and Franco as he made tea for them. "Call me crazy, but my hardest challenge was leading in the first place. I…have a younger brother on my team, but his being in my guild was a hard pill to swallow. I know how strong he is, and he is very committed to being a 'Hero'…but I know why I am the way I am."

"You were a leader before this apprehension, I assume?" Franco asked.

"Nope, I got elected this year. But I…was part of every guild, to begin with."

"WHAT?!"

"SHUT!"

And they went quiet again. "Yes, I've been appointed to all the guilds to the point no guild wanted me anymore. The Angels hated my prowess, I couldn't stand Charlotte and the past captain, Skylark is an a**hole, Eon is a bigger a**hole, Ryuko…no, and the pink Vipers were just…WOMEN!"

Tedashii and Franco stayed silent as he went on. "But then I met Haruro…"
