Twilight stood before a group of six in an old antiques shop.
"So what you're telling us is; that you're a being from another dimension, sent here to help us in our own plights so that we might assist you in your 'war' three months from now?" Hisui asked
"That would be exactly as I said it." Twilight replied
"That's impossible!" Hisui immediately shouted
"How so?" Twilight asked
"Other dimensions don't exists, other states of reality maybe, but not other dimensions."
"Then tell me Hisui Kisaragi, have you ever seen someone or something like me in any other state of reality?" Twilight asked
"No, how you describe yourself has never appeared here before."
"So you say." Twilight answered mysteriously
"Hey you two, let's just cut the crap and get on with it. There's something weird going on around the city with all the people dying." Kyoichi shouted
"Kyoichi's right, what are supposed to do about all these deaths in the city? Something has to be behind it, and whatever it is we need to stop it." Aoi added
"I agree, your both right in what you say, but with this 'thing' walking around. We may have other problems to worry about." Hisui answered pointing at Twilight as the 'thing'
"Hey, I have a name." Twilight replied
"Don't worry about it, Hisui's skeptical of everyone at first. All you have to do is show your worth to him." Aoi answered smiling
"Lady Aoi, In my role as your protector I must insist you stay away from that 'thing' he's probably a demon sent to kill or capture you."
"I was sent here to recruit the ones with the 'power' if you're not one then you don't have to involve yourself with me." Twilight replied
"Stop it!" Komaki shouted
"Sakurai…" Daigo said to himself realizing what was happening
"We have to stop fighting and start working together!" Komaki continued
"Tsch, whatever. I don't need any of you slowing me down, I'm outta here. Come on Tatsuma." Kyoichi replied turning to leave, as he and Tatsuma left Tatsuma turned and bowed to them before following Kyoichi out.
Twilight sighed before following them both out.
Hisui sighed "What does that idiot think he's doing. You all need to be working as a team and his opinion of him being the only one who can defeat these demons is going to be the reason everyone dies."
"Maybe that's why Twilight is here." Aoi replied thoughtfully "Maybe he has appeared to us in order to help us function better as a team. I mean, if his story is true and that these Guardians are collecting soldiers from other dimensions then they have to be able lead and work together well in order to function with such a large force."
"Lady Aoi…" Hisui replied
"Aoi's right, Twilight needs our help and he's offering to help us, the least we could is accept it, because we all know we need it." Komaki replied "Am I right Daigo?" She asked turning to the large wrestler
"Uh. Yeah, right!" he replied, his face turning red
"Alright then. Let's go find Kyoichi and the others, then we can put a stop to this plague that's sweeping through the city!" Aoi said happily
Meanwhile, inside the city.
A rotting corpse lunged at Kyoichi, he brought his sword down on the body's head cracking it open and letting it fall to the ground, unmoving. Tatsuma dodged another lunge from a body and kneed it in the gut forcing it into the air where he jumped slightly and turned kicking it into a wall. Twilight slammed his hammer-head down sending out a shockwave that knocked the bodies that surrounded him to their knees. He held up his hand above his head and a large gray cloud enveloped him and the bodies. When it left, the bodies were gone.
The trio regrouped in the center looking around, They'd been surrounded by corpses.
"Any ideas?" Kyoichi asked grabbing his sword with both hands
"No, you?" Tatsuma replied resuming his stance
"Keep fighting?" Twilight asked experimentally
"Sounds good." Kyoichi lunged forward slicing another corpse in half.
