In Shizume City there is the legend of the Red Monster of whom anyone who wants to be his comrade are often burned by red flames as his hair but those who had passed the test survive and gain power. That legend is now broken…
CHAPTER 1. THE INTRUDER
-3 weeks after the Mihashira Tower Infiltration-
Outside Scepters' 4 headquarters a merry figure is staring at it with content, expectating the right time after all this two years and four months of being away. The situation has made her come home earlier than expected and seeing the headquarters again made her heart squeeze a little. Without hesitation she looked over and crossed the street towards the main gate.
"I am telling you, the intruder is a girl in a blue dress merrying around with everybody. Awashima-san has asked for reinforcements because no one can actually trap her." Hidaka was explaining himself to his comrades while running in the corridors. No one was believing that a simple girl could be making this much trouble to Scepter 4 in his own home. "Apparently she has made it out of the kitchen and is heading upstairs alredy, hurry up!"
"Hey, wait there!" Fushimi was yelling towards where they were gathering on the upper levels and sent his knives flying to the intruder. "Tsch…" she just smiled and moved as quickly to deflect them with her arms.
"It is a girl, so beautiful and gorgeous!" Hidaka indicated watching the smiling figure deflecting his superior attack and watching them with desbelief, she mocked them with a smile and sending all the boys a kiss, then making a turn with her dress so she disappeared. "Beautiful!" Some of them were dazed with that image.
"Hey, scumbags, we should be going against her, not falling for her, get a grip and hurry! She is heading to the Captain's HQ!" Shouted Fushimi and all of them run for her. "There is no way she can pass through Awashima-san" thought Fushimi with a twisted smile and they cornered in a corridor upstairs just a few doors away from the Captain's office.
"You are cornered, you shall not go ahead, by the laws and trespassing our HQ you should be arrested, Awashima, battou" the right hand of the captain took out her sword and send her lethal attack against the girl who only smiled once again and dissappearead in thin air appearing behind her attacker. "What? A strain?" She said and everyone was impressed for a second but the girl moved faster and run forward to the main door that was her goal. "Oh, no you don't" Awashima grabbed her by the back bun of her dress and tried desperately to seize her, but she kicked her many times until the bun was dismanteled and the lace broken, being left at Awashimas hand perplexed. "You can not GO in there!" She yelled but the girl opened the door.
At the end of the room ,behind his enormous desk, was this man in silver glasses with a serene smile on his face doing a jigsaw puzzle of the Eiffel Tower, he did that gesture of accomodating with his two fingers his glasses and watched the strange picture on his door. All his men were overflowing from it with Awashima trying to grab that girl that smiled up.
"Reishi!" She yelled and all his clansmen fall to the floor in desbelief. Was it a sister thay haven't heard of? What the heck was going on? "Reishi! My flight was earlier for three hours so I decided to surprise you coming to your headquarters, I was really trying to impress you with lots and lots of efforts but I was cornered and…yoooiii you are doing an Eiffel Tower? Why so? "
Munakata Reisi was the leader of Scepter 4 and also the fourth and Blue King. Without impressing himself, he stand up and watched that girl trying to decipher the picture and the person as he always did.
"Sir, we tried to stop her, but she would not listen to reason at all and…" Awshima tried to explain but he arose his palm.
"Order Hikari-chan." The girl smiled and laugh, Munakata closed his eyes in desbelief."Everything is all right, Awashima-kun, everyone get back to work and fill reports from last nights intervention.
"But, sir…" Fushimi tried to intervene but was no use, that calm expression of the Captain was always not what it seemed.
"Hikari-chan, give me ten minutes.
"Hai!" She yelled making a full turn and she went to the window and made a smirk towards the captain.
"Hikari-chan use the door." Too late, she jumped from the window four floors to the ground with gracious reflexes and began to run around the front gardens of the headquarters. His clansmen were in shock and tried to understand the situation but there was no use. "Awashima-kun please see that everything is settled, I will be off for the rest of the day, call my PDA if there is a true emergency, if not I count that you can handle it with Fushimi-kun, understood?"
"Yes, sir, but may I ask where are you heading?
"I have a lot to be told about order and probably be scolded, you see a picture and description of the actual Eiffel Tower is better than a jigsaw puzzle when it is told by someone who has actually been there. See as you may fit to resolve the inconvenience of yesterday.
Munakata headed to the same window where she jumped and saw that girl almost his age smelling flowers with the wind moving her long, shy purple hair, sure she was noisy but a noisy that calmed his heart. Sure he will be scolded but he was hoping not until tomorrow after the reunion. He found himself smiling like knowing that was not going to happen and climbed the window.
"Sir!" But it was hopeless he jumped through the window too. Way to maintain order… Fushimi and Awashima saw from the window how their king headed towards the girl and put a hand on her back startling her. They heard her laughing and greeting her until she stopped and saw those violet eyes that were always trying to suck her away. They kissed. Fushimi and Awashima opened their eyes in desbelief, not a sister, not a friend, but a girlfriend! They spotted them going out the headquarters dominion without giving credit to what just had happened.
What they did not know was the impact of the truly nature arrival of Hikari because long ago it was said that where Kings may born let Queens be shadows of its reign, she came back to watch over the fragile kingdom that was about to collapse.
Thanks for reading, I know that some may found the chapter a little off but I guarantee you that after chapter 4 everything will be settled, first I wanted to show how simple and what kind of relationship Hikari-chan and Munakata have to pass next to the dose of kingly power this world offers.
Keep reading, give it a shot and Thanks!
Enjoy the reading, Vanaiel
