AC: This is going to be a short chapter, but better short than bad.

"Is everything been prepared Kyoya?" Azi asked the boy.

"Of course. The invitations has been prepared, I buy a ship big enough for everyone to enjoy their time and employees who shall works. The only thing remaining is the guests."

Azi looked at a screen with the pictures of everyone with a buddy, "We have to invite every Buddy Police officer. Their presence might attract others and they have some experience in it. Maybe we will find the best choice among them."

A few new images were present of those with buddies, including Hanako and Kuguru.

Kyoya looked at the picture of Hanako and commented, "She is pretty young."

"From the video we obtained thanks to an insider, we know she had an unofficial buddy. She doesn't have spellcards on her," Azi said.

"As for the other girl, her buddy is currently gone, but she still has the spellcards," Kyoya said, pointing to Kuguru. "Shall we invite them too?"

Azi grinned and replied, "Of course. It is a party and they have buddies. Maybe they can deserve the future gift we have for them."

"The invitations shall be send soon," Kyoya said, standing up and leaving the dark dragon alone.

Azi watched the images of the humans who had buddies and said, "Things are soon going to be interesting."

Chapter 37: The Party Invitation

Drum sat in the dojo and watched Tenbu showing his first technique to control his temper against the Dark Dragons. It wasn't really impressive. He would rather watch Gao training with his mother than receiving his first teaching.

"This one is fairly simple. You just need to take a deep breath, a silent one of course, until you cannot hold more in your lungs. Then, you just breathe it out and repeat the process a few times, until you feel your anger go down."

"I knew it would be boring, but not that boring," Drum commented as he rolled his eyes.

Tenbu put his arms on his side and said, "Now that I showed it. Do the same thing. Close your eyes and breathe slowly and deeply... And Silently."

Drum closed his eyes and did as he was asked. He did it for a while and thought it was stupid.

"Now you can open your eyes," Tenbu said.

Drum opened his eyes and saw Tenbu eating his pudding.

"My pudding! What are you doing?" Drum yelled as he stood up.

Tenbu took a bite and replied, "Just tasting it."

Smoke came out of Drum's ears. He charged at Tenbu and jumped in the air, "Those are mine!" just to be stopped by Tenbu's tail coming on his snout faster than he expected. "Ouch!" he grunted with a mark on his snout.

"Sorry. Did I say tasting it?" Tenbu asked before grunting and correcting himself, "I mean: Testing you. It took only... 3 seconds to lose control. That's even worse than I thought."

"It's my pudding!" Drum yelled. The information given by Tenbu was far from his brain.

"You're name is not on it," Tenbu replied finishing it. He took another one with chocolate on it, Drum's favourite flavor.

"No!" Drum yelled charging again. Same result occurred.

"And you thought my teaching was stupid," Tenbu commented as he flew higher.

The information finally reached Drum's brain and realised it was a test. He grumbled, but deeply breathed. He was sure it wouldn't work, but his anger slowly went down.

"Good work Drum. Here. Take your pudding," Tenbu said, giving the one he had in his hand.

Drum gasped and took it and ate it in one bite, "So tasty," he said with star in his eyes.

The doorbell rang.

"I'll open the door," Suzumi said. She walked outside the dojo. "Hello... Gao! Hanako! Someone wants to see you."

Gao walked outside the dojo and Hanako climbed down the stairs with Halberd following her.

"Who is it?" Hanako asked.

"I don't know," Suzumi replied.

In front of them, it was a man wearing a servant suit with two letters in his hands.

"What is it?" Suzumi asked.

"Our master wanted us to give you those invitations," the man replied.

"Invitations?" the three replied.

"Yes. My master decided to invite everyone with their buddies to a party to celebrate the first year of collaborations between worlds. More information's are inside the letters. He wants you to come here. You can invite two friends if you want. Buddies can also be invited, but don't count as the two friends," he said before giving them the letters.

Gao and Hanako looked at the letters and said nothing as the man walked away.

Suzumi closed the doors and said, "I don't know about this. This is sudden and you are going alone with your buddies. What if his master has bad intention?"

Gao and Hanako opened their letter and read it.

"He pretty much sums everything mom. Except that he gave the address and strongly recommend us to be present at the party," Gao commented.

"Did I hear the word party?" Tenbu said coming to them with Drum following him.

"Yes," Gao replied.

Tenbu smiled and said, "We should definitely go! There's always a tons of beautiful ladies at a party!"

"Who do you know that?" Drum asked.

"A dragon knows those things," Tenbu replied with a smile.

"It will be this Sunday," Gao said.

"It says that there's going to have a pool, lots of games," Hanako started the list. She started to smile at the thought of going there.

"It can be a trap or something dangerous," Halberd commented.

"But we will be there with them. They cannot pass over three dragons," Tenbu said He grabbed Halberd by his horns and said, "Think about the ladies."

Halberd chuckled nervously and silently called for help.

"Maybe your friends will have them too," Suzumi thought.

"We should call them," Drum said, "If it's a trap, better be more numerous."

"If they also got it, it can be serious," Halberd thought.

Gao read one last thing, "There's also one last thing."

Gao told what he read at the last section.

"You can't be serious!" Drum yelled.

Tasuku and Jackknife were home and both studying when they heard something. They said nothing until Tasuku broke the silence.

"I thought I heard Drum there."

"Same here. Tasuku, are you going to that party? It sure came out of nowhere," Jackknife commented.

"I don't think we should go there, but Gao called and said he will go," Tasuku replied, "If there is other people and it's a trap, we might need to be there."

"I do not think this is a trap. Why inviting everyone when they can defend themselves with their buddies?" Jackknife replied.

"True, but we are of the buddy police force, if there is a fight, we can do some damage control," Tasuku commented.

"Anyway. I do not agree with that last section. There is no way I'm going to do that," Jackknife warned Tasuku.

Tasuku chuckled and replied, "Sorry. But you have no choice in that. We should get prepare if we are going."

Jackknife sighed, "This party is going to be humiliating if I'm the only one doing that."

Tetsuya and Asmodai were at the park. There was a radio on the bench playing loud music as they danced at the rhythm. Asmodai had less trouble than Tetsuya with his flexibility.

"So. We are going to that party right?" Asmodai asked with a smile.

People passed in front of them and were mostly ignoring them, except a few who watched their dace.

"Of course. It's going to be fun. We are going to show those buddies who are the best at dancing yo!" Tetsuya replied.

Asmodai chuckled and replied, "Agree. We'll chill out and eat the buffet until we make them regret to even have one."

"It's even funnier that our friends are also invited yo. It's been a while since we've been together except when we ate at the Buddy Police Station," Tetsuya commented.

"That's right. We will also have to bring some weird stuff," Asmodai said, "It will be fun to have them."

Asmodai continued dancing while Tetsuya replied, "Yes. It will be fun with everyone."

Zanya and Tsukikage read the letter they got from Akatsuki, who brought it from home to the Buddy Police Headquarter. They both nodded silently until Zanya's little brother talked,

"A party. Is it going to be fun?"

"Nin!" Tsukikage too out his scroll and was written, "Yes."

"There's going to have a lot of girl there," Zanya nervously said as he imagined the place. His glasses cracked, "Not this again."

Tsukikage took out another pair of glasses and passed it to his friend. Zanya put the new pair and thanked his buddy.

"It is legit," The Commander said as he joined them, "I checked it when I got a call for Tasuku and everything is in order."

"We should go," Akatsuki said.

The Commander said, "I think everyone should. We will know easily who got a buddy in town if we meet them at the party."

Zanya gulped and replied, "If it is as a mission... I guess I should go then."

"Nin," Tsukikage took out his scroll written, "Let's get ready for the party."

"Yeah. What they asked in the last section is so not me," Zanya commented.
