Butterfly: I'm back!
Kuroswa: Someone is feeling better.
Butterfly: You bet your police badge I am!
Kurosawa: She doesn't own My Sweet Bodyguard!
"The initiation of a new member in the RPD."
As soon as those words left her lips Goto stared at Naomi as if she was crazy. There hadn't been any mention of initiation and she was telling him about it now?
"Whats the initiation process?" He asked with a hint of suspicion in his voice.
"That you'll find out soon. Now go change into your uniform with the hat on. Akira take him to one of the changing rooms." The blonde ordered as the designer Goto had seen earlier handed him the finished uniform.
Not wanting to cross Naomi Akira immediatley led Goto to a large changing area and left him to have some privacy. Goto quickly changed into the uniform and put his clothes into his briefcase. As he stared at himself in a nearby mirror he noticed that he looked as if he was member of the agency. Not some newcomer.
The uniform looked similar to Akira's and Kichiro's with the exception of the many badges sewn on the front of the coat. The hat was a black general's hat that covered most his hair except for a few bangs that were on the front. His fencing sword was attached to the right side of his waist causing it to hit against his leg as he walked out of the room to find Kichiro next to the door.
Goto followed the red-head to an elevator where they went down to the basement of the building. As they stepped out Goto noticed that the room was dark and a couple of candles lighting up a path, were the only things that lit up the room.
With a small nudge on the arm from Kichiro Goto walked down the path of candles. As he passed each pair of candles they blew out but he kept going until the last pair of candles blew out leaving the room completely dark. Before he knew it a few lights turned on revealing Naomi standing in front of him with Akira next to her holding a small knife and a silver wine glass full of water balancing on a velvet pillow.
"Ready?" The blonde asked as Kichiro stood on her other side.
"Ready." Goto said with a slight nod.
"Let's begin. Please be on your knees." Naomi instructed.
Goto obeyed. On he was on his knees the blonde touched his chin and coaxed him to look up at her.
"Seiji Goto you have passed all of the tests to become a member of the Royalty Protection Division. There is one final test that you must pass before officially becoming a member of our agency. To pass you must let 5 drops of your blood fall into the sacred glass that has been passed down for many generations. Once the first drop has fallen there is no way to backdown from the initiation ." Naomi began with a loud voice.
Once the blonde completed her lines Akira stepped forward and handed Goto the knife before motioning him to stand up. Goto stared at the knife for a moment before taking a deep breath and dragging it across the palm of his right hand. He let out a hiss of pain as he cut deeply. Holding his hand over the wine glass he watched as the first drop of his blood fall into the glass knowing he couldn't back down anymore. Then the second. The third and so on.
Once all five drops of blood had fallen Kichiro stepped forward and wrapped Goto's hand with a long strip of cloth. When their eyes met the red-head gave him a smile and winked.
"Now that your blood has entered the sacred glass do you, Seiji Goto, swear to keep your status as a member as a secret except for the royals that you shall protect. Especially your coworkers at the Public Security Division?" Naomi then asked with a serious tone.
Goto thought for a moment remembering how he promised Ishigami and Kurosawa to never lie. He had broken that promise already by lying about his red hands. But this was Naomi, his favorite cousin that he hadn't seen for 2 years. He couldn't betray her or the princess he was going to be protecting soon.
"I solemnly swear to do so and to protect the royals with my life." He answered with calm tone.
"Then I hereby declare Seiji Goto a member of the RPD." Naomi said with a satisfied smile on her face.
With that Kichiro and Akira applauded with smiles on their faces. Akira stepped forward holding out his hand to Goto.
"Welcome to the RPD General Seiji."
Butterfly: Yes! I'm finally done!
Kurosawa: Thanks for mentioning Ishigami and me in this chapter.
Butterfly: You'll appear more in the story. I promise.
Kurosawa: Read and Review please!
