Hinako checked her reflection in the glass and made sure that her scarlet vest and her pants were in order. Despite showing her feminine attribute, she made sure it made her look professional and also showed the population that she had the guts, will and strength to rule over Japan.

A part of her worries dissipated after the Thunder Knights incident with the Dragon World accepting to pay for the damage they have done and the Buddy Police force had been efficient, even with the supervisors that slowed them down.

She checked her campaign plan and everything was in order. The pressure was heavy on her shoulders and every one of her party. The world had their eyes fixed on Japan election since the electoral platform strongly focused on the monsters from other world and how to deal with it, Funny that we have move eyes on us than on the United-State.

Once she was ready, she walked outside and entered in her car, driving toward the destination with one thing in mind, From now on, everything I'm doing, no matter how trivia is important.

Chapter 92: The Election Begins

Drum woke up as he cleaned his eyes. He grumbled and looked around. He noticed that Gao already woken up. He checked the clock and saw it was soon time for the accursed school. He put his armor and quickly joined the Mikado family to eat and with his buddy rushed toward school.

The dragon checked at his buddy and knew he couldn't still talk about Azi plan. Not only had that, but everyone else already had things in their mind.

Tasuku and Jackknife where with them and also had the same pensive gaze. Drum knew exactly why, Today, the elections begins and for the next month, the ruler of Japan will be chosen. Why can it be the strongest one? He wondered since his father used his power and fought his adversary to rule over the dragons.

They joined their friends and the other buddy monsters and the morning passed quickly.

During lunch break, every friends of Gao were on the roof. They quietly ate together and talked about the usual stuff for a while. Eventually, someone had to put the bombshell and it was Tasuku.

"You know the elections are starting today right?" the boy asked.

"Yes. This is going to be the future of our world and many other worlds," Baku replied.

Kuguru nodded, "And a first time for the many other worlds."

"I sure hope that Hinako wins the elections, because it's too much fun here," Cat Sith said.

The other's nodded.

"I didn't train and all of us been through many things just to be kicked out of this world," Ironchain said.

"And I cannot return to Dragon World if Tenchi wins," Jackknife commented.

"I guess you'll have to join another world if it is the case," Drum commented.

"Earth is my home now. I don't have anywhere to go for a dragon except Darkness Dragon world. And I won't go there," the green dragon replied.

"We'll make sure Hinako wins the election then," Gao little sister said.

Halberd nodded as he crossed his arms, "That means that the Buddy Police force must be perfect then."

"And that we don't let innocent hurt in any ways," Tenbu said. He then fly a little higher and commented, "If things turned bad, everything you knew and loved will be gone."

Drum gasped, "That means that I won't ever eat pudding again. The worst nightmare I can have!"

Tenbu chuckled, "Looking at you closer Drum, I think it will be good for you. You got a few pounds out of pudding and Dumplings."

"I didn't!" Drum yelled back before adding, "I just look chubby in my mini form."

Everyone chuckled and the red dragon face turned redder than his usual scale color.

"Depending of the laws, I might be the only one not leaving the Earth. I was here before mankind became a civilisation after all," the green dragon said.

"Lucky you. If it's the case," Drum grumbled.

"Too bad we are too young to votes. Most of us who have buddies are children," Baku sighed.

"We have to trust the adult," Tasuku said.

Gao stood up and yelled, "Then we have to show them that you all deserve to stay here as friends! We cannot let any crimes unpunished. I am the mighty Sun Fighter after all."

"And we are members of the Buddy Police force," Tasuku added with a smile as he joined his side.

"Don't leave your buddy behind," Jackknife said.

"Everyone has to give their all," Halberd said.

"I will big bro!" Hanako said.

The other's yelled in agreement.

Meanwhile, Kyoya and Azi prepared to go outside the mansion. As they walked outside, they stopped when they saw some Purgatory Knights in front of a door and Sophia.

"What's going on?" Azi ordered.

"We don't know. The door to the bathroom has been locked for a while and he doesn't want to come out," one of the knights replied. Clearly putting some dislikes with the he.

"Who's there?" Azi furiously grunted.

"It's Despair my king," the same knight replied.

"What's going on?" Kyoya asked.

The Purgatory Knights raised their shoulder as they grumbled a 'I don't know.' Before one of them pointed at Sophia, "She was there before us."

"Sophia?" Kyoya asked.

They suddenly heard Despair painfully yelling at the other side of the door and grunting with fury and hatred, "What's going on with me?"

Azi noticed some satisfaction on Sophia face when he saw her lips, lightly... Extremely lightly pointing up, "I don't care what you did to him, but I have to know what happened."

"He was getting too annoying. I have to do everything to keep him inside the mansion and he almost went free once. I wanted to keep him inside," she replied.

The heard the monstrous dragon continuing to painfully yelled in the bathroom.

"Anyway, I'll go away now. When he came out, just hold your breath," Sophia bluntly said as she left them.

They all understood what was going on and it was awkward. It was then that Demios came, dragging Troubadour, "You are getting on my nerves Troubadour and- What's going on?"

Azi walked away with Kyoya behind him, "I'll leave this in your capable hand."

The darkness dragon remained there and was confused about the next thing to do. After a second, a large grin appeared on the face of the leader of the Purgatory Knight. Troubadour noticed it and tried to slowly back away.

"Troubadour," Demios said without even looking at his soldier.

"Yes," he replied taking his initial position.

"Once Despair finished suffering, I'll end your punishment with this chore. Clean the bathroom," he told his soldier.

It was exactly what Troubadour feared and his scales turned completely white while the other's walked away, not wanting to get caught in the horrible punishment with their brother in arm.

In the Mikado's house, the television was opened as they entire family and the dragons watched the news about the announcement of the elections that was about to start. There were some worries and excitement as they all watched the news.

"-...We will soon present the three candidates that will participate in the elections this year as the Prime Minister of Japan and the parties they represent. Each of them will give their individual speech before we officially declare the beginning of the elections. You have noticed that they aren't doing it the usual way, but those elections are more important than ever and the world is probably watching the news as well,-" the reporter started.

They noticed that Paruko and her buddy were also filming the scene together and did the same as the reporter. Other reporters noticed it and they was an argument starting in the background until it turned into a reporter battle, which dragged the camera away since nothing else was going on.

"That doesn't usually happen," Gao's father commented before the adults sighed.

Paruko slipped away before the cops separated them and ended the reporter battle.

Hinako finished preparing herself and cleared her throat. She was satisfied of herself and ignored the pain coming from her chest when she squished her large breast so it looked more like normal size.

"Are you sure everything is going to be fine?" Commander I asked since he was in the room.

"Do not worry about it. I cannot let any treat scare me and I cannot show any weakness in front of Tenchi," she replied without any trace of fear in her voice.

"Today is the first day. We all have to be flawless," Commander I said.

"We all have our role. Are the children and their buddies ready for this? It's rare than actions of the children are strongly determining in elections," she asked before lightly grunting again.

"Yes. They are all aware of this and especially Tasuku," he replied. He asked, "Are you alright? You seem in pain."

"I just use bandages to look more natural and with less breast," she replied.

That caught Commander I off-guard as he replied, "Y-yeah. What about the third candidates? I wasn't expecting another important one who will be presented today."

"I know nothing, but we will have our answers too. If he's on Tenchi side, it will divide the votes for him."

"If it's the opposite, it will be difficult for you," Commander I replied.

"We have two ways to win the elections. With the assassination attempt during the cruise ship, it is possible that Tenchi is using illegal methods to win the elections. If we have proof, he and his party will fall down. If not, we have to be convincing," Hinako commented.

"We will do everything so you become the next Prime Minister Hinako," Commander I said.

She nodded and when she was ready, she waited for the moment to come out.

Tenchi was preparing himself to be spotless, exactly like Hinako. He adjusted his clothing and when he was ready, he lightly smiled.

"Is everything in order Tenchi?" Someone asked him.

"Yes. I'm ready to begin the elections," he replied.

"Good. You have to win the elections Tenchi. We cannot allow those creatures to slowly take control of the Earth," the man said.

"Of course. They are plotting something and I'm going to end it," he replied.

"Good," the man said as he left Tenchi alone.

The man looked at his reflection. He knew he had to play carefully his card now, I cannot allow myself to get caught with everything I tried so far. That ninja monster is under our control and that insane Hinako cannot bet allow to win the election no matter the cost.

He also had to make sure that his party weren't aware of some element of his plot, since most of them weren't ready to do everything to win the election like him.

He then walked outside, ready to begin everything. The fate of the world rested on his shoulder.
