This story takes place during the events of Senran Kagura Burst, Yugi is also 24 years old if anyone was wondering, enjoy.
Yugi decided to stop at the shopping district first. He was at farthest eastern point of the area, most people would avoid it due to how shady it looked. Yugi had a round chambered into his pistol just in case.
"So he said it was around here." he found a door and opened it. It was a dark room where the only light came from the open doorway and a few lanterns. Yugi could see several swords and other weapons on the wall. There were several crates beneath the shelves.
"Close the door." a man wearing a dark grey hoodie and holding a cigarette said. "Don't want an unwanted audience." Yugi closed the door.
"I was told to come here in case I ever got involved with the world of shinobi." Yugi explained, the man seemed intrigued.
"...You not a shinobi are you?" he threw his cigarette on the ground and stepped on it.
"No, I'm just a journalist covering a story."
"I don't get customers who are non-shinobi, you must be very stupid or suicidal."
"Maybe I am, my brother told me about this place."
"Who's your brother?"
"Kamui, my name's Yugi."
"Oh, your Kamui's younger brother, my name is Kage, Kamui was a valued customer, anyway what are you looking for in particular?"
"I going to sneak into Hanzo or Hebijo Academy and get some photo evidence."
"You are definitely suicidal, but I got some things for you." Kage stood up and went to one of the crates in the room, after some searching, he pulled out some items. "Some flashbang grenades and a chameleon veil, cover yourself with this to blend in with your surroundings."
"Right... so what do I owe you?" Yugi asked
"I'd say 20,000 zeni." Fortunately Yugi had some zeni that Saizo had given him.
"Here." Yugi handed him the money. "Has the schools moved at all?"
"No, they're still where they've been."
"Okay, I better get some preparation done." Yugi said,
"The Black Market is open twenty four seven, thank you for your patronage." Kage lit another cigarette as Yugi exited.
Yugi settled into his hotel room, he knew he would have to hide his gun more carefully due to Japan's gun laws. He had three extra magazines and one in the gun, giving him 28 bullets if things got bad.
"I should've bought more." Yugi thought about his two targets, he knew Hebijo was completely dedicated to training shinobi, while Hanzo didn't have much shinobi presence other than the elites. "I guess I'll go for Hanzo Academy first."
Hanzo Academy
"Kiriya sensei, should we be worried that people outside of Japan could learn about the existence of Japan?" Asuka, the elite leader asked
"Why would they know?" Their master questioned
"This is why?" Hibari pulled up a video on her cell phone, it was Yugi's interview he did the day before he went to Japan. Kiriya was quite puzzled someone outside of Japan and an everyday person knew of the shinobi activity.
"If it doesn't spread to far, this shouldn't be a problem." Kiriya answered
"Well it's number four on trending, but people are mostly disregarding it as another conspiracy theory." Ikaruga explained.
"It wouldn't be out of the question to keep an eye on this on the other hand." Kiriya had decided.
Next day
Yugi has looked up Hanzo Academy's upcoming events since it was also a regular school. He learned that there was going to be an assembly. He decided to try and sneak in during the assembly. He loaded his pistol and gathered the recently purchased equipment.
Hanzo Academy
Every student was gathered in the schools gym for the assembly, Yugu snapped a picture of the school building. He searched the hallways to try and find anything out of the ordinary, he soon found a hidden room, it was dim. He pushed against one side of the wall to reveal a secret doorway, Yugi snapped a photo of the open door. He pulled the hammer back on his gun and cautiously advanced inside.
"This must be their ninja room." Yugi said quietly, he took a several pictures.
The Assembly
"Kiriya sensei, I sense someone's presence." Ikaruga said
"Me too." Kiriya replied
Hanzo Academy Ninja Room
Yugi found a doorway on the left side of the room and opened up, he found a glass container that held a ninja scroll.
"Kamui's scroll..." Yugi snapped a photo before breaking the glass, he heard the doorway he used to get in open. He pulled out the chameleons veil and covered himself, the item did it's job and he was invisible to the naked eye. He had his gun ready to fire at anyone who would remove the veil.
The five elite shinobi of the school could see the door that held Kamui's scroll was open and the case was broken.
"Someone's here." Yagyu noticed that whoever was intruding wasn't concealing their presence.
"Keep your guard up." Ikaruga warned, they had their weapons ready and inspected the room. Yugi could hear footsteps get close and closer to him, he felt someone grip the veil. Yagyu had found the veil, as soon as she pulled it off, she was met with a bullet to the stomach. The sound caught everyone in the room's attention.
"Yagyu!" Hibari ran to her friend. Yugi made a mad dash to the door, he managed to snap a picture with the girls armed before tossing a flashbang at them. Yugi jumped out the first window he found. He made it to the front of the school before Asuka had intercepted him. He fired his remaining six shots, they were deflected by her wakizashi. He attempted to reload, but his gun was knocked out of his hand by a kunai.
"I won't let you through, not after what you did!" Asuka was visibly angry at Yugi for shooting Yagyu.
"Just let me through and you won't ever see me again!"
"Not a chance." Seeing she was about to attack, Yugi grabbed the kunai she threw at him earlier. Yugi turned to see her right in front of him, he received a cut across his forehead above his left eye. He tried to stab her with his kunai, but the difference is skill was evident, he was kicked away.
"Urgh..." Yugi barely managed to regain his footing, one hit from a shinobi would've immediately downed an average person, he wasn't handling the pain too well.
"This is for Yagyu." Asuka went at full speed at Yugi, he swung his kunai blindly at her and he managed to plunge it into her right arm, halting her long enough for Yugi to reclaim his pistol, he frantically raced to reload the gun. Asuka pulled out the kunai as Yugi had finished reloading, they would up with her wakizashi at Yugi's neck and his gun barrel at her forehead. Yugi felt another blade at his neck from behind.
"Drop your weapon, there's no escape." Ikaruga commanded. Yugi was about to comply until a bombshell landed by their feet, it detonated releasing a noxious gas. All four of them began coughing due to exposure to the gas, they all lost consciousness.
Hanzo Academy
"How's Yagyu?" Asuka asked.
"She's alright, the bullet went clean through, so she'll recover faster than she would have otherwise." Kiriya replied
"He got away, someone threw a knockout bomb at us,and when we woke up he was gone." Katsuragi expected explained.
"Before we blacked out, he was carried away by a black robed person." Asuka said bandaging her arm. Unknown to them, there was a spherical spy drone hovering overhead that had been watching.
Elsewhere
Yugi had woken up on top of a tall building. Who stood in front of him was a figure wearing a dark robe with a hood over his head. He grabbed his gun next to him and aimed it at the person standing in front of him.
"Who are you?!" Yugi shouted.
"...You've entered a dangerous world Yugi. " It was a man's voice "You lack the strength to take on that world, I would just go home if I were you."
"...Then what if I don't huh?"
"Then that is your choice, but you have been warned." he vanished with a smoke bomb.
"Wait, who are you!?" But he was already gone. "Great... now how do I get down from here?" He looked over the edge.
Yugi eventually found his way down on a fire escape, went back to his hotel room and locked the door. He went to pull out Kamui's scroll, but it was gone. He figured the Hanzo elites reclaimed it when he blacked out. Yugi looked at the photos he managed to take.
"Perfect, better get ready to visit Hebijo tomorrow." Yugi said
"I wouldn't worry about that." He heard a girls voice behind him. He turned around and fired his gun, no one was there, but the doors lock had been picked. "Too slow." Yugi was hit in the back of the head and his unconscious body fell to the floor.
Well took me awhile, but there you go. Remember to review and tell me what you think, I appreciate criticism if you have any, i think I may struggle with battle scenes, but I try my best. I don't think this will be updated as frequently as my other story, Sword Art Online: Hollowed Out.
