Gah! Why am I back here?! Most likely cause of you readers. Always asking for more. Well let's get going, plus some of these guys will already know Red personally.
Reds jaw dropped to the floor once he saw what he saw. The crowd of twenty summoners with a few familiar faces. He made his way through, ignoring the old man trying to get him to do a speech. He saw Ace almost immediately since his was arguing with another guy that looked around his age. "-hat was that beanstalk?!" The white haired boy snarled, "You heard me blockhead!" The one he was arguing with had jet black hair and... More red eyes? Even as much as he would like to see this through to the end, he interrupted them by karate chopping their heads to the ground, startling everyone around them, he even got an "-eep!" From some random girl. "THE HELL!?" Roared the 6 foot tall summoner as he stood slightly above Red. "Gah! What was that for?!" Ace exclaimed as he got up. That's when he noticed it was Red, "WHATS THE BIG IDEA MAN!?" He shouted at the redhead, "I HAD THIS TAKEN CARE OF!" "Oh please pipsqueak, I was about to squash your ass!" The "Beanstalk" snarled, "Now looks like I get to beat dow- Nngh" He was cut off by one of Reds swords that was a few centimeters away from his neck. "I will not tolerate this behavior, no matter how amusing it is." The redhead stated firmly, "Calm it boys." A female voice came from behind the taller one. "Come on Angel! I got this!" The boy complained, "No, we are not here to make enemies out of the blue! We came here to be Recruited!" The girl known as Angel countered.
The taller boy growled before he just stood with his eyes going from Red to Ace, looking for any movement and Red withdrew his blade and holstered it. "Mind introducing yourselves?" Red asked, "Why should we- OW!" The white haired girl pulled on his ear, "What did I say Akuma!" "Gah! Okay, okay Angie. My names Akuma." "And mines Angel! He's my Onii-chan!" The girl chirped in, interrupting Akuma. "So Akuma and Angel, eh. You two are like Yin and Yang." Red observed, seeing that Akuma had red eyes and black hair that reached his neck while Angel had blue eyes and white hair that reached her thighs. "I know right!" The girl chirped happily, "That's an insult towards me!" Akuma crossed his arms, "Well how about I introduce us three!" Evelyne suddenly said out of no where. "Gah! When did you get here Evelyne?" Red said, quite startled by her appearance from no where, "Shadow Magic of course!" She replied happily as she sunk into the ground and came back out next to Ace. "Well this is my brother, Ace! I'm Evelyne and that guy with the spiky red hair is Red Iron!" She stated, having everyone stares soon on Red. He nervously looked around and heard people whispering to each other until Grahdens spoke up, "Yes, that is Red Iron and he will be leading the 67th Demon Slayer Squad! A.k.a. Firestorm."
Everyone was shocked. They all came thinking they were gonna replace an old Squad but to be forming an entirely new one, which happened every few years and the latest one was formed just last month! Even Red looked at the old man as if he had lost his mind. "Now line up! Excluding Red of course, you come over here boy." The elder gestured Red over to him, and Red did comply.
As they all got into position he looked at each of their profiles, he looked at the Kiyo's and saw that they only had each other, no family members or relatives. Just the two of them. Although Akuma had rampaged a few times in taverns because some guy was hitting on his sister. He moved on to the Rex's. What he saw jolted his memory, Viktor Rex was their father, very famous and it was said he could match gods on the battlefields. The male apparently fought for whatever he wanted while the girl, who used shadow magic, was focusing on making break throughs. She has yet to make any though. He moved on to... Rosa!? He thought in shock, seeing the very girl he saved standing before him, she just barely made it in at 17th place. He carefully looked over her profile, and it was mostly empty in the history section. She barely had anything on it, the only thing noticeable was that she took on a Edelma on her own while protecting her injured spirits. He decided to ask questions later and moved on to the next one.
This time it was a girl named Cress. She was a brunette, slightly taller than Evelyne and had side bangs. And her eyes... What is going on?! Another set of red eyes! He couldnt help but also notice that her history was almost the same as Rosa's except, there was barely anything there at all. He continued to go down the list and line until-SPLASH! A bucket full of water fell on his head. He heard a small giggle from under his bucket/helmet, and that giggle soon turned into almost everyone laughing while some just stood there and gawked at what they had just witnessed. Red couldn't help, he busted out laughing.
After that laughing fit, he took off the bucket and saw a Rosa standing under him, "I'm sorry, sir. That was just a prank." She tried to apologize, "Oi! Didn't you hear me laughing?" Red asked while putting on a friendly smile, "I thought it was quite amusing myself, you are definitely gonna be on the squad!" He patted her shoulder, and let her get back in line. "Um, sir?" The brunette known as Cress spoke up, "Are you ok, sir?" She asked while pointing out the water dripping from his hair. He also noticed Grahdens trying not to burst out laughing in the corner of his eye. "Yea, I'm fine! Just give it a quick flame." He said as he released part of his aura, allowing flames to envelope him and dry himself.
As he released his aura, he saw that he over did it. "Oops" was all he said as watched a burning chandelier fall next to him. "Well, how bout we take Akuma, Angel, Ace, Rosa, Cress, Nick and Tyler!" He yelled and somehow got a few fist pumps while others just blankly stared at him. "THERE'S NO WAY I'M WORKING WITH THAT IDIOT!" Akuma shouted, "WHO SAYS!?" Red barked back. "Ho ho ho! Looks like this will be interesting!" Grahdens said as he watched all the summoners rejoice or just standing there dumbfounded. "I bet this will prove extra useful in the future! The more summoners, the more likely we'll survive." Red said to himself as he started to walk off, "Oh no you don't" Grahdens said while dragging Red back into the room, "You are now responsible for all of them, my boy. So no slacking!" He said as he threw Red back in the room.
Red just got up and said, "Well crap."
