Chapter 2
Miho groaned softly as she opened her eyes to see the sun through her window as she sighed sitting up from her bed. "Forgot to close those curtains again." She sighed.
My name is Miho Tokufuji I'm 18 and live in Den City I work in the Hack Department of SOL Technologies where I would locate, find, and if deemed necessary terminated any abnormal hacks or Hackers in LINK VRAIN the famous Cyberspace here in Den City it's a pretty busy job but pays well too.
Miho was putting on her jacket when her door opened to show Touma coming in. "Ah your awake good breakfast is ready." He told her.
"I'll be down." She nodded.
That is Touma Kobayashi my caretaker my parents died in an accident and my aunt Mitsuru became my legal guardian but at the time she was already the boss of her company Kage Corp in Tokyo so she decided to have her most trusted right hand watch me and my siblings he's a pretty great guy though kinda awkward now and then.
Miho walked downstairs to see Touma sitting drinking coffee and reading the news while Rai was setting down breakfast. "Morning Miho." Rai smiled.
"Morning." Miho smiled.
This is Rai and you might not believe it but he's my twin brother even though we don't look anything a-like he's pretty, easy going and friendly a pretty mild-mannered guy but he's no pushover and a great brother and support.
"Don't you have to open the shop soon Rai?" Miho asked, as she sat down.
"Not for another 10 minutes so no worries and eat." Rai assured, as he sat down as well and began eating.
Rai owns a card shop that we actually live above on the building was technically bought by Touma but Rai made it his own shop and gets a ton of customers even if most people buy cards in LINK VRAINS but with Rai he's pretty old fashioned and likes to follow his ideals.
"Don't you have work today Miho?" Touma questioned.
"Nah day off today so I'm gonna enjoy it." Miho said, sipping her tea.
"By spending time with her boyfriend." Rai smirked.
She choked on her drink coughing lightly before glaring at her twin as he snickered. "Mind your business Rai!" She hissed blushing.
"You're still blushing." He teased.
"Why you." She growled, an angry mark on her head.
"No fighting on the table." Touma scowled at them.
"Whatever." She said, rolling her eyes before standing. "I'm heading out."
"So, we're going tonight?" Rai suddenly asked.
She stopped for a moment before glancing at him. "Yeah of course." She said, walking out.
Miho walked out with a stretch walking thinking. Hmm maybe I'll go visit Aoi see how's she doing. She thought.
She saw a flower stand and smiled blue flowers and bought them before going to the hospital walking up. "Hi, I'm here to see Aoi Zaizen." Miho said.
"Ms. Zaizen? Ah yes you were here before." The nurse behind the counter smiled. "She's in the same room as before."
"Thanks." Miho nodded.
Miho walked the familiar hall reaching the door as she opened it. "Hey Aoi?" Miho began, then blinked. "Oh, hey boss."
Aoi and Akira looked up surprised Akira then smiled. "Hello Tokufuji, you came to see Aoi?" He asked.
"Of course, I heard she finally woke up, so I came to visit." Miho grinned, walking to them. "Hey Aoi."
"Hi Miho." Aoi said with a soft smile.
This is Akira Zaizen and his step sister Aoi, Akira is my boss in SOL Tech but he's also actually a good friend of mine too I met his sister a few months after I worked for him a little soft spoken but a sweet girl who obviously loves her brother she's like a little sister to me and she also happens to be LINK VRAINS famous Charisma Duelist Blue Angel.
"Oh, I got you these Aoi." Miho smiled, handing the girl the bouquet.
"So pretty." Aoi said stunned, taking the flowers.
"Yeah when I saw them, I knew you would like them." Miho smiled.
"Thank you." Aoi smiled.
"And Miho you won't be calling me boss anymore." Akira said.
"Huh, I won't?" Miho said surprised
"Yes, sadly I'll be demoted, and someone will replace me." Akira sighed.
"What?! Who's replacing you?!" Miho said shocked.
"Kitamura unfortunately." Akira frowned.
"That swine?! Oh god I'm not gonna last an hour." Miho sighed.
"Don't worry just keep a low profile from him and you'll be fine." He assured.
"Thanks for the tip and warning." Miho sighed, looking at Aoi. "So Aoi when you gonna get the clear from the doctors?"
"Oh, soon in a few days, actually." Aoi said.
"Great to hear." Miho smiled, facing Akira. "Try to go easy on her now."
"Don't worry I will." Akira chuckled.
Miho stayed a bit longer before leaving the hospital with a sad smile. It was good seeing Aoi… I know Yukiko would like her. She thought, holding her pendant.
Yeah, we have a nice life but under that we have a different life unknown to others except Touma me and Rai are actually Flare Dragon and Spark Dragon the Truthseer and Ideal Maker enemies to the Knights of Hanoi. 5 years ago, our little sister Yukiko was kidnapped by members of the Knights of Hanoi and there hadn't been any lead to them or her we refused to just sit by and do nothing and so took it upon ourselves to go after them.
With Touma as out backup we began our mission to fight the Knights of Hanoi in order to find out why they kidnapped Yukiko and get her back.
Miho walked to center city and noticed a familiar food truck opened and grinned walking over. "Yo Kusanagi, hey Yusaku." She smiled.
"Hey Miho, good to see you." Kusanagi smiled.
"Hello." Yusaku spoke lightly, from his seat on the bench eating a hotdog.
"Still a kid of few words I see." She grinned, ruffling his hair.
He glared at her as she and Kusanagi chuckled.
This is Shoichi Kusanagi he's the owner of the food truck called Cafe Nagi me and Rai are his regulars for his delicious hotdogs while the young teen is Yusaku Fujiki he's a student in Den High School if Yukiko were around the two would be in the same grade I've become nicely acquainted to him though I can't help but tease him.
Though unknown to others Yusaku is actually the famous Playmaker of LINK VRAINS who also fights the Knights of Hanoi with the AI Ignis named Ai and the mysterious Cyberse Deck me and Rai met him in LINK VRAINS three years after we began our battle with the Knights of Hanoi watching him duel one of them and we were impressed by his skills. It took us a while to gain his confidence but he was willing to talk to us since we fought with the Hanoi longer than he did it was then we learned that he was fighting the Knights of Hanoi in order to learn the truth of an incident he was forced into 10 years ago much to our shock and he was just as shocked when we told him of how our own sister was kidnapped by them we then agreed to form an alliance in order to defeat them though he's still a bit of a loner with us. It was then we learned his identity and of Kusanagi being his partner, but we kept it to ourselves not wanting him to distrust us and besides I bet he found out who we were a long time ago.
"So, want your regular?" Kusanagi asked her.
"Yes, please I've been in a mood for your hotdogs." She grinned.
"Coming up." Kusanagi smiled, as he began cooking.
"Shouldn't you be working?" Yusaku questioned, looking at her.
"Got the day off and Rai said he'd handle the shop for today." She shrugged.
"So just wandering for the day?" Kusanagi asked.
"Well I have something planned but I won't tell." Miho smirked.
Kusanagi chuckled while Yusaku rolled his eyes making Miho smiled as she got her hotdog and drink and she paid and waved goodbye to them walking off to an empty spot taking a seat at the bench as she began eating frowning in thought. We were so close to get Revolver and finding Yukiko but someone had to interfere even if we're working with Playmaker there still isn't a good chance Revolver will appear at least not for a while. She thought, as she finished her hotdog and sipped her drink. I gotta relax if I don't I'll make a mess in our mission.
She stood up to throw away her trash. One day soon we'll get back our sister so in the meantime we continue forward. She thought with a nod.
"You're here Miho."
Miho turned and happily smiled seeing a familiar face. "Hey Ryoken." She smiled, walking to him.
Ryoken Kogami my childhood best friend and my boyfriend of almost two years we met when we were kids by our parents and became close since along with Rai and Yukiko the two of us have supported one another for years and soon enough I got a crush on him so I was surprised that he confessed to me that day, but I've never been happier he's the only one who knows about me and Rai being Flare and Sparks he worries about us but support us too.
"I hope I'm not too late." Ryoken smiled gently.
"No not at all I only just got here." She assured him with a smile. Ryoken smiled as he took her hand in his and the two began walking as they did she noticed his face was slightly pale. "Ryoken are you alright? You don't look well." She said worriedly.
"I'm fine Miho." Ryoken replied a little stiffly. She frowned at this, worried.
"Ryoken you should let me worry about you. I mean, you worry about me all the time when I'm in LINK VRAINS, so it won't hurt to lean on me." She told him gently. He gave a small sigh but gave a gentle smile at her.
"I know Miho, believe me I do. And I appreciate that; and I promise if something worries me, I'll tell you." He replied.
"You really promise?" She asked with a gentle smile.
"I do." He smiled. She smiled as she leaned on him as they walked as he spoke. "Now what about you? You obviously have something on your mind." He stated.
She flinched before sighing holding his hand tightly. "Me and Rai were so close Ryoken… He was right there! Revolver was there, the one who had the answers, but someone helped him and he managed to escape before we could do anything!" She hissed, frustrated. "We were so close to finding out where she was but…" When Miho said those things, Ryoken felt his face turned even paler, and his body stiffened.
She has no clue that she's talking to the guy she's after… Ryoken thought sadly. I would tell her, but… I cannot risk my Father's plans being stopped…
"We were so close, but the chance slipped." She said shaking her head lowered letting a few tears slip. "I just want my little sister back Ryoken… Is that so wrong?"
"No." Ryoken replied utmost immediately, the facial color on his face returning. They soon stopped as she looked up at him sadly her eyes shining with tears. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to act up like this." She frowned, wiping her tears. "I'm just so frustrated that I couldn't do anything." He then hugged her much to her surprise.
"Don't be sorry. Yukiko will come back to you; I promise you." He reassured her. She gasped softly but gave a soft smile and hugged back.
"Thank you Ryoken." She said happily. "I'm glad you're with me."
He hugged her back, hoping to hide the guilt on his face before she moved.
"Shall we get to our date?" She smiled. Ryoken gave a nod in response, not saying anything for a few moments. Eventually, he replied.
"Absolutely, Miho." Ryoken replied to her question. She smiled as the two walked hand in hand, Ryoken looking at her.
I'm sorry Miho… Someday I hope you can forgive me for causing you this pain…
"You didn't have to walk me home." Miho chuckled, as they walked to her home.
"It only seems right that I do." He smiled, as they stopped at her door and frowned. "You're going tonight right?"
"Yeah, Me and Rai are planning on hunting some other Knights in order to get Revolver out. If we're lucky, we might be able to find more info on the guy and his plan." She frowned. "And once we find him, we'll corner him this time." Once again, when Miho talked about Revolver, Ryoken's body stiffened and his face becoming pale.
"See it happened again! Your face is all pale and your body stiff up. Are you sure you're ok Ryoken?" She questioned worried, cupping his face.
"I'm fine Miho." Ryoken replied. Should I tell her? "I..."
"Yes?" She asked gently. Before Ryoken could tell her more, he got a message from Kyoko Taki. He shook his head.
"Sorry Miho; I gotta go." Ryoken told her.
"Oh work. Right." She nodded, letting him go. "But listen Ryoken, if something is bothering you or anything, you can tell me ok? I love you."
"R-Right." Ryoken nodded, feeling himself sweat and almost internally crying; knowing that telling Miho who he is in VRAINS and what he's doing she would never forgive him. "I love you too, Miho." She gave a sweet smile as she gently kissed him before going to her door.
"I'll call you later ok?" She said.
"Sure." Ryoken replied. She smiled as he watched her walk inside, closing the door behind her before he sighed walking away as he answered.
"What happened ?" He asked.
"I'm sorry Ryoken-sama, but we're about to begin the next test with her and we thought it be best with you here." She told him. "You know she feels more calmer on the tests with you here."
"Right of course. I'll be there right away." He told her before hanging up. … Miho I'm sorry but… I can't turn back not now.
Miho walked in the living room letting out a sigh.
"Something happened?" She looked up to see Rai sitting on the sofa with a book in his hands as he placed a bookmark and set it down.
"I'm just worried about Ryoken. He's been acting off lately." She frowned.
"More so than when we told him of us being Flare and Spark Dragon?" Rai asked. "Miho you're probably overthinking things. He's just worried about you getting hurt, or worse, in VRAINS."
"Maybe…" She frowned. He frowned, standing and walking to his twin placing a hand on her shoulder. "Look, we've known Ryoken for years and he knows that if something was bothering him, he could tell us. Just give him some time." She sighed and nodded as Touma walked out from the computer room.
"Everything is all set." He spoke.
"Alright let's go." Rai said.
"Yeah." She nodded. The three went in the computer room as Miho and Rai put on their duel disks. "Good luck to you both." Touma said, sitting on his chair.
"Thanks." Miho said. The two went to the other room both raising their arms.
"INTO THE VRAINS!" Miho was enveloped in a fire red sphere while Rai was enveloped in a lightning blue sphere and the two becoming Flare Dragon and Spark Dragon as the two headed to LINK VRAINS.
