Episode 008: That one special meeting.

 Guru rolled himself over as he got bored of playing with his new device phone. Denzel did drop by to explain the postponement of their training and gifted him a phone as he expected the best ahead of their training. He informed him that he would have to learn to control Abyzou…make a deal with her and join the Visionaries academy. He might as well change his name, so as he wouldn't get recognized by anyone as a dead soul. Plus, he had already been clicked in on the registration form by Lucas…soon enough.

 There was a tap on the door, minutes after his exit and it was Lucas, wearing only a shirt and trouser. He still had the round hair bandage and held his ribs as he moved. He claimed that he had come to see Guru and engaged him in a little video game competition. As they played on, laughing and smiling, the scene evolved as an office decorum was established.

 In the office located at the mid area of skycraper. Glass windows and doors, many people were seated in a rectangular manner as the center table was extremely long and glass craft. Sitting opposite each other were 8 Visionaries…higher ranked from Knight, Rook, Bishop and Kings men. As the bureau leader of Tokyo Visionaries, Denzel was asked to come in.

The whole room members were groaning when he walked in…gnashing teeth on one another, he had a bright smile on his face as he looked forward for a grand entry. Looking upon the face of the King's men, who distinct themselves by wearing a different uniform.

Dark pencil jeans, boots to the leg, inner wear of black shirt and a long piece of flair at the bottom, white leather jacket. The symbol of cross for the Visionaries was on their upper right chest region and they didn't look like a happy gang. The bishop's men wore something easy to explain as it was a baggy, flair and bumper gown looking cloth…like a graduation gown. Dark in color and had a golden emerald lining around the neck, shoulder and wrist region. Knight's m already describe from Lucas's dressing earlier and lastly present the rookie's men. Going with a dark personality and known for their ruthless and unpredictable movements and actions. They wear dark long sleeve collateral shirt, with a red armband at the left side of their arm. Black jeans, boots and fingerless gloves. They are regarded as the second strongest and next to the queen's army.

 Apparently, they all had been waiting for Denzel to appear for a long time now and he hasn't. The meeting was scheduled for 7am and he came 10am, the eyes looking at him was very much speaking their minds. He walked up to them and smiled mischievously…"Sorry…all, I had to problem picking out what glasses to wear today". He said itching his full white hair. Dropping his ass hurriedly into the chair reserved for him, he requested that with his presence the meeting should commence.

"Good morning everyone…! A bald man in his early 30s said getting up from his seat.

"Morning Fraser! They replied, listening attentively to what he has to say.

"The emergency meeting was held at the wake of what happened last night at Shibuya. 8 Visionaries murdered by a demon. He said and whispering was heard as they were shocked. It was the highest number of Visionaries killed in a night by one demon…unknown for that matter. The man ignored their whisper and continued…"The demon's whereabouts not found, whoever he was…it came and took these men. All are lower rankings of Knights. We believe that…the demon was an upper ranked and-

"Baka…! A slamming of the table was heard and it came from Denzel. Who got to his feet, not caring he was in a meeting and with this everyone thought he had something to say to the matter. They all waited patiently as he rose up, tipped his glasses to order with his finger and looked at them in a grumpy face of disgust. "I…( he said calmly and they waited in anxiousness as to what he wished to say and as a Chess board, he had a lot of rights) I…have to use the little boy's room". He said and the whole room went in awe. They expected something better at least not this.

"You are kidding right…we-

"Shhh…! I was telling you not asking. Plus, I did rush to get here and didn't have a chance to pee….deal with it! He snapped and ventured for the door, they all went sad and mad as they had to wait for him to get back.

 He sneaked back to the bathroom and flashed a call at Guru, who picked and the sight of him and Lucas having fun was…okay! In actuality, Lucas was there as a protection spell over him getting attacked by Amon's Puppets again. He snapped the call off and walked back into the office smiling widely but it quickly vanished as the sight of the Pope. He eventually pulled himself in and had to bow to show his respect and dignity towards the founder and developer of the Visionaries. He was the first of Visionaries and is currently the oldest amongst all. 54 of age, bright smile, bald haircut…baggy gown of black and designs of checks in center. He has a symbol of the visionary as the Father of it and his presence posed that something was wrong.

"Denzel…Our chess board and one the strongest amongst us! He called out to him, as Denzel bowed at his feet in respect.

"Sensei…!!! He yelled to the top of his voice and the others bowed as well. "Pope…Saitama, Our Father! They bowed in respectful grace. He smiles at them all and ushered them to carry on the meeting that he heard about the death of 8 Visionaries…killed by upper ranked unknown. As he spoke on the scene de-escalates from the primary focus of the meeting to Guru back home.

 Lucas got up to go get the pizza ordered as the delivery got the whole location mixed up. He asked him to wait downstairs, he would come right back down to get him. As he shut the door behind him, leaving Guru inside…he walked on to the steps and paused, looking around sheepishly as he felt a simster presence as though he was being watched or something. He rubbed the back of his head and pisses the thought of them being watched off his head. "probably a kid or something". He muttered to himself as he moved downstairs.

 After a while he stringed back up but without the pizza, he jumped into the door and looked at Guru. He looked back at him, offering a smile at him.

"Hey…if you're bored…how about we go play, a mobile competition. I mean, you seem good with games and sure can handle yourself out there! Whatcha you say? Lucas asked and looked at him smiling.

"Whoa…! Denzel said I shouldn't leave-

"Uh…come on! Denzel isn't here and that meeting would be over in like 3 hours tops. Plus…thought you were good at Warning strike, the original edition and –

"whoa…! The original edition! I…I( stutters) I am so in! He said and went to grab his hoodie. Lucas watched him and smiled as he assisted him lock the doors and off they went to the game store.

 Denzel was sitting in a boiling seat as he was being waited for by the other Visionaries. He had his hair down, as he buried his face at his shoe. He tipped it upward and looked at the waiting Visionaries.

"No…! My guess is the demon was an upper ranked". He said and looked at Fraser.

"We know that…! Another Visionary said and looked at Denzel for a better option.

"Hm…I suggest, since Shibuya has recorded our highest of demons and kills of Visionaries…perhaps we focus all our force on destroying the demons there and –

"are you joking right now…? We just lost 8 of our brothers and you want us to venture there with all our resources and-

"I know…I believe they are fools for attacking…an upper ranked. He said and the other went into shock. "If a man knows that he is gain the power of a multiverse on his side whole his opponent has gained nothing but the power to destroy both you and the multiverse, you possess. Best chance of survival is to run…they are fools for honoring the wishes of another man and venturing into their deaths. Besides…when a buffalo sees a lion he always run and barely fights, only he knows why. He said and tapped his glasses again.

"So…you are saying-

"No…! I am saying they were killed by the foolish mentality of believing that they could win in size but not in strength. He said and another wave of muttering was heard. People back biting and talking, no one was willing to listen and reason the facts but it was all true…they attacked in size and got outnumbered by his strength and it killed them.

 The meeting got suspended and Denzel got a chance to go home. His phone had a voice mail, actually 27 of them and on the top was Guru's own. He played it as he hipped into a cab that would take him home.

"Hey…Sensei Denzel-

Need to know: he played that side of the voice mail over and over, repeatedly still he reached near the gates of Guru's apartment. The word of calling him a sensei too romantic and sweet for him that he collapse in the cab at every time he played it…enjoying the great respect, he was presented.

"Hey…Sensei Denzel. Guru here, I and Lucas are off to the game store to go play games. Sorry, I left the house but it's Warning strike, the original edition…amazing! He snapped the record off and jumped off the cab.

"So he decided to go party, without me? What a hassle…" he grumped as he made for the steps, halfway to reaching it, he spotted Lucas in the corner…itching his hair as he came in from the general mail stand.

"Huh…Lucas! He snapped in shock to see him. Lucas rolled his eyes as he was nursing his injuries, rejecting all forms of excitement to seeing him. He was basically the one who caused this.

"Hi…sorry I know you said I should come early but…(rolled his eyes and starched his back) I was busy.

"Wait…! What are you doing here? Denzel as still in shock as he wondered if they were back so quickly…when was that voicemail sent exactly?

"Babysitting…what about you? Meeting's over already? He asked as he approached him.

"Yeah…it was kinda a nasty thing. Denzel replied as he forgot completely of the main topic.

"okay…well Guru's upstairs. If you wanna go punch his face out and I would attending to my nursing wound. He said and attempted to climb the stairs.

"Wait…! You were with Guru?

"No…haven't see the guy, but I know his in the room, somewhere. He said and looked at Denzel…"Something's wrong? He asked and threw his brawls up.

"You went gaming with him…he said and pulled out the voice mail.

"Nope…I don't game. Plus, I have a partial broke ribs why would I step outside for a gaming competition that ended 2 days ago. He said and Denzel's eyes went wide and opened.

"Lucas…?

"Huh?

"someone….just went a long mile. Tricking us into an awful illusion. Whoever that Guru's with isn't you at all. Denzel snapped and raced off to the door, drawing on his collateral shirt back on his body as he raced off to get Guru, while Lucas stood still watching him.

 Guru saw himself in am abandon mental hospital, he was in seen with the supposed Lucas. His phone beeped and he looked at it to see a message from Denzel. "Where are you?

"sorry…you did state, that you went to game store but where exactly?

"The game stuff ended 2 days ago.

"Guru…the person you are with isn't Lucas but a demon with an illusion skill. Stop and…..R.U.N!

 He looked at the awkward emoji he threw in the texts and looked in puzzle to it. Looking back at Lucas who was already paused as he noticed Guru busy with his phone. He wondered why he stop and thought to ask but from the look of things, it was very much obvious.

"Something's wrong. Guru? He asked and kept a straight face at him.

"No…it's all good, had this google notification be disturbing me.

"Really?

"Yeah…Guru lied and looked away avoiding eye contact. Lucas looked at him, up to down and scoffed…turning back to continue the walk.

"Best put in on don't disturb mode…always helps. Plus, we are almost-

"There's no gaming competition is there? It ended 2 days ago and you are not Lucas are you? Guru snapped at him and pulled back slowly.

"Lucas…? Lucas…?(he had a puzzled face pulled up but a mischievous smile emerged off his face) Lucky bird…almost falling off the tree. He smirked and like tearing in space and time…reality was uttered and the true appearance of the suppose Lucas was unveiled.

 It was Akaza in his usual scary dressing and appearance. He smirked off a hysterically laugh and grinned at Guru, who back off in fear as his appearance was more intimidating than the words he spoke.

"A pleasure to finally meet you…Guru".
