Great job everyone! After the OMEGA SQUADRON defeated every robotic creatures, the team decided to continue on with their excursion.
"So... were not leaving yet?" Dexter Grif questioned.
~~000~~
Walking inside a mall somewhere in Mega-Tokyo, we see Yuura Inoki lurking around inside a video game store called The Video Game Store while looking at some shelves.
"Hmm..." Yuura hummed out loud, "What should I buy?'' uttered, "Warzone in Mid-Earth: Phantom Mordred, Flaming Badge Warriors, Within Darkness 2..." she listed off, "There are so many games I wanna buy but I can't choose.'' she admitted with her arms crossed, "Guess I'll just buy Warzone in Mid-Earth: Phantom Mordred and Flaming Badge Warriors then." she decided before grabbing the two aforementioned games and made her way towards the cash register. After purchasing the games, she made her way out of the store, "I can't wait to show this to Honoka." she said with a smile before realizing something, "Then again... she probably had one of these games with all that money she had in her pocket.'' she stated.
"Onee-chan!" a voice called.
Yuura turns around to see a girl, whom is a year younger than her, walking towards her direction.
"Ah, Suzuka-chan!" Yuura greeted with a smile.
Heartcross Student and Trainee
Suzuka Inoki
Suzuka had a slightly small stature, she had a waist-length brown hair and wears a pair of white bows, and she had blue eyes. She wears a black hoodie jacket, blue denim shorts, thigh-high knee socks and blue rubber shoes.
Suzuka then noticed the bag in her older sister's hands, "Oneechan... you bought another game again..." she uttered in disbelief, "Mom is not gonna be happy if she finds out that you spend half of your monthly allowance again for games.'' she pointed out.
Yuura chuckled nervously, "Ehehe... sorry..." she apologized, "But I just can't help it, they look so awesome that I want to play them.'' she reasoned.
Suzuka sighed in response, "I will never understand video game freaks like you.'' she stated.
"Maybe if you try playing games, then maybe you'll understand." Yuura suggested.
Suzuka deadpanned, "Never in a hundred years.'' she dismissed.
The sisters then made their way out of the mall and onto the streets, they then noticed the skies darkening by every passing minute.
"Uwah! Looks like it's going to rain.'' Yuura commented, "I wished I brought an umbrella with me." she stated.
"The weather forecast got everything wrong again!" Suzuka exclaimed in disbelief.
"We better hurry before the rain goes down!'' Yuura beckoned.
And with that, the sisters made a run for it but unbeknownst to them, a strange man peeks his head out from behind a post with a creepy smile.
"Kill... must kill... must get satisfaction...'' he muttered between his heavy breathing.
bzzzttt...
Later that day, the two sisters arrived at their home somewhere in a neighborhood next to the city. As this is going on, Yuura realized that their mom is still at home, so she decided to hide her newly bought games in the garage before going inside, coming across with a woman in the living room.
"Hi, mom!" Yuura greeted.
Yuura's mother is a tall-buxom woman with waist-length brown hair, she had blue eyes and wears thin glasses. She wears a gray blazer jacket over a white blouse with black necktie, dark office skirt, gray pantyhose and dark slip shoes. This is Kanako Inoki.
Owner of the Inoki Business Corporation
Kanako Inoki
"Hello sweetie!" Kanako greeted back, "The office just called that requires my attention, so I'll be home very late." she explained, "I already made you and your sister dinner." she said while checking the contents of her bag.
"Thanks mom.'' Yuura said in gratitude.
"I need to get going, I'll see you later.'' Kanako said.
Kanoko then kissed her eldest daughter before walking out of the door, "Bye mom!" Yuura said with a wave of her hand.
Yuura then look outside the window just in time to see her mom's car driving away, she took this chance to get her games back from the garage. After getting her games, she quickly ran towards her room, forgetting to lock the front door on the process. She quickly entered her room which is right next to Suzuka before placing the games on her bed and then proceeds to set up her TV & game console.
"All right!" Yuura cheered, "It's time to play the game!" she declared before giggling, "I sound like Triple H.'' she joked.
As Yuura began to play Flaming Badge Warriors, we head inside Suzuka's room where we see the younger Inoki reading a book on her bed. Minutes later, she hears her older sister shouting the words 'awesome', 'cool' and 'so addictive' from the next room, Suzuka rolled her eyes in annoyance.
Back inside Yuura's room, the older Inoki decided to call her friend while still playing, "Hey, Honoka!" Yuura greeted on her phone.
"Hey, Yuura! What's up!?'' the voice of Honoka Kamishina greeted back.
"Just here to tell you that I just bought Flaming Badge Warriors and I'm currently playing it right now!" Yuura shared.
"Really? Lucky you, I haven't bought that game yet.'' Honoka replied.
"Really?" Yuura uttered in surprise.
"Yeah... though I bought Within Darkness 2." Honoka shared.
"Really? How was it?'' Yuura asked.
"It's a great game, it was solid!" Honoka answered, "It had some hard-to-ignore faults but the experience was fun!" she admitted.
"Wow! I wished I also bought that too.'' Yuura uttered.
"How about this?" Honoka inquired, "Once I'm done playing this game, I'll lend it to you and in exchange, you'll lend me Flaming Badge Warriors." she offered.
"Deal!" Yuura accepted.
"Welp! Mom is calling me, so I'll see you around, cya!" Honoka beckoned.
"Bye.'' Yuura replied before hanging up.
Yuura was about to continue playing when she heard a loud crash from downstairs which cause her to jump a bit, she looks at her bedroom door in confusion. Getting curious, she stood up and walked towards her door, she looks out to see Suzuka peeking her head out from her own room.
"Oneechan, what was that?" Suzuka asked nervously.
"I don't know." Yuura replied, "Is mom back already?" she questioned.
"If she was, then she would have called us.'' Suzuka replied.
Yuura then thought about it, "Let's go down and see.'' she beckoned which earned a nod from her sister.
The sisters then slowly made their way downstairs and the first thing they saw is that their front door is wide open.
"Oneechan..." Suzuka muttered, "... why is our front door open?'' she asked.
Yuura paled in response before rubbing the back of her head, "Ahehe..." she chuckled with a sheepish grin, "I think I forgot to lock it earlier...'' she confessed.
Suzuka gave her sister with a blank look, "Seriously? Oneechan!" she exclaimed, "Do you realize that we could get mugged because of that blunder of yours'?!" she chastised, "What if some stranger entered our house?!" she pointed out.
"Calm down, Suzuka!" Yuura advised, "Let's go and check the kitchen because I think that is where the source of the crashing sound from earlier." she beckoned before making her way to the kitchen.
Suzuka sighed in response before following her older sister and when they arrived at the kitchen. What they saw next made them froze in fear.
Right in front of them is a strange man wearing a dark jacket over a white shirt, blue jeans and brown boots. The strange man is breathing heavily while staring at the sisters with a creepy smile.
Yuura stood in front of her sister, "Who are you?" she questioned, "And what are you doing here?'' she demanded.
The strange man slowly brought out a knife, "Kill... must kill... must get satisfaction...'' he wheezed in response while pointing the knife at the sisters.
"Oneechan... I think he wants to kill us...'' Suzuka uttered in fear.
Yuura narrowed her eyes before slightly glancing at her sister, "Suzuka..." she uttered, "I'll go and distract him, so you can get help.'' she whispered in advice.
"What?'' Suzuka uttered in shock.
Not wasting any time, Yuura suddenly charges forward and tackled the man to the floor, "Now Suzuka! Get out of here!" she beckoned while keeping the man down.
Suzuka is taken a back, "Oneechan! I can't just leave you behind!" she exclaimed.
"I'll be fine!" Yuura reassured, "Just go!" she barked.
Although reluctant, the younger Inoki complied and quickly made her way towards the front door.
"I... will not... let a prey... get away!" the man wheezed loudly before quickly pushing off Yuura to a corner and went after Suzuka but was stopped when Yuura quickly got back up and tackled him from behind.
"You're not getting close to my sister!" Yuura exclaimed as both of them fell to the floor which gives Suzuka the chance to run out of the house.
Upset by this, the man gritted his teeth before quickly getting up the floor while pushing Yuura off his back. The man then glares menacingly at her, "You bitch!" he cursed, "You let my prey get away!" he accused, "I will kill you!" he exclaimed before swinging his knife.
Yuura dodged his attack and quickly ran back to the kitchen. The man followed her to the kitchen only to find her gone, he then looks around while Yuura hides behind the counter with a tray in hand. She quickly crawls her way to the opposite side of the counter where she saw the man's back turn on her and without wasting any more time, she smashes the tray on his head hard which causes him to stumble down to the floor, grunting in pain.
Yuura then bolted out of the kitchen and went to the living room. The man slowly got up, gritting his teeth in anger, he storms out of the kitchen and made his way to the living room, the moment he reached the corner, a large vase is smashed on his face.
"Graaaaghhh!" the man screamed in pain while holding his face and wasting no time, Yuura ran up the stairs.
The man quickly got up despite his bloodied face and losing one eyesight. He then quickly ran up the stairs to the second floor before entering Kanako's room but found no one, he then entered Suzuka's room and again he found no one, and he then proceeds to make his way towards Yuura's room. And the moment he opened the door, the man is greeted by the sight of a number of bouncing balls thrown towards him, he swatted each balls away however it was followed by a much bigger ball hitting him directly on the face, especially the injured part, which sends him falling down to the floor, cringing in pain.
Yuura then ran out of her room, "Good thing Sagara-san ask me to keep those balls around for safe keeping.'' she uttered with a smile.
The man quickly got up, "Get back here!" he demanded before running down the stairs.
"Yikes! He's fast!" Yuura squawked in shock.
The two continues their cat and mouse chase all over the house with Yuura using various obstacles to slow down the man. And as of the moment, she is currently hiding behind the door in the kitchen while holding a baseball bat in hands.
"What is taking them so long?" Yuura muttered.
The man then entered the kitchen with an angry look, "I'm done playing games you bitch!" he growled, "Come out so I can kill you!" he demanded.
"Yeah! Not gonna happen!" Yuura yelled before running out from her hiding spot, she then swung her baseball bat and hits the man at the back of his head.
"Graaagh!" the man howled in pain, "That's it!" he exclaimed before knocking the bat away from her hands.
"Shit!" Yuura cursed.
The man then wasted no time and pushed Yuura down to the floor, the man then brought down his knife at her but she managed to catch his arm, stopping his attack on the process.
"Die you bitch!" the man yelled with a crazed look.
"NEVER!" Yuura yelled back in determination.
"Freeze!" a voice called.
At the kitchen doorway, we see a young woman with a taser gun pointed at the man.
The young woman had an average height. She had a neck-length blue hair hair and she had brown eyes. She wears a white short-sleeved collared uniform with a black necktie, she wears a blue pencil skirt over a white pantyhose and black buttoned boots. This is Airi Kagari.
Police Force Member
Airi Kagari
"Kagari-san!" Yuura cheered.
"I said freeze! Drop your weapon!" Airi demanded.
The man ignored her and just press on while Yuura fights back. Realizing that the man won't listen, Airi fired her taser gun directly at the man's back.
"AAAAHHH!" the man shouted in pain before being paralyzed, Yuura then wasted no time kicking the man on his prized possession, "Ooohh!" he howled in pain before Yuura knocks him out with a single punch to the jaw.
Airi then quickly handcuffs the man before turning to Yuura, "You okay?" she asked.
Yuura let's out a sigh of relief, "Never been better...'' she replied with a smile.
bzzzttt...
Later that day, Suzuka is now back home where she hugged her older sister in relief while Chitose Suzuya and Airi drags the man towards a police car and at the same time, Kanako arrives in her car before quickly getting out and running towards her daughters.
"Yuura! Suzuka!" Kanako called out before engulfing her daughters in a tight embrace, "Are both of you okay?" she asked in concern.
"Don't worry mom, Suzuka and I are both all right." Yuura reassured, "Though I'm a bit shaken." she admitted.
"But how did this happened?" Kanako questioned, "If I remember correctly, I locked the door from the inside before I left.'' she recalled.
Yuura smiled nervously, "Ah... erm... you see..." she uttered.
"Onee-chan forget to lock the door after getting her shoes from the garage." Suzuka replied.
Yuura looks at her sister in surprise, "I see... well it doesn't matter as long as both of you are safe.'' Kanako said before hugging them again.
Yuura gave her sister a thankful smile and Suzuka responded with an eye roll but smiled nonetheless.
bzzzttt...
Later that night at the Police Department which is located somewhere in Mega-Tokyo, we see Airi and Chitose talking to Miyako Kougami.
Miyako just finished reading the reports before looking at her colleagues, "Good job." she complimented, "The strange man that has been waltzing around in the city has been apprehended." she declared.
"You may wanna praise Kanako's older daughter though, she managed to hang in there before we arrived.'' Airi said with a grin.
"I see, I commend her for that." Miyako said with a smile, "Though next time, we should respond a lot faster." she advised, "Yuura had the skills to defend herself but the same thing can't be said for those who weren't, so we need our best to prevent something like this to happen again." she stated before smiling, "Suga-kun would think so." she added.
Both Airi and Chitose smiled back, "I thought so too." the latter replied in agreement.
