Chapter 4: No Capes!
Thunder's P.O.V.
After all introductions were given, Supreme Kai of Time had just handed over a scroll to me. It had this weird purple design around it and tied together at the end with two small feathers. Rika had run off somewhere, saying something about being back with something important. "That right there is a Scroll of Time. It contains the history of something very important, but-" "-Some hooligan's gone off and messed with time!" Just as Supreme Kai of Time had gotten ready to tell us something important, this elderly purple guy just cut her off...wait, is it considered elderly to someone who's basically watched over the history of time itself? Eh, questions for later.
"What is it now old man?" The elderly guy started stamping his foot in outrage. "Who're you calling old?! I'm only 1,000 years older than you!" Wait so, he's somehow older-Nope, staying out of that one. "Yeah yeah, whatever. So what do you need?" "I'll have you know, I am the one who's supposed to be recruiting these youngsters for the time patrol." I finally had to say something. It was driving me nuts trying to figure out what the heck's going on.
So I just leaned over to whisper to Toriosae to see if he knew, "Who's this guy? You know him?" "The geezer is the Elder Kai you crazy person. How do you not know this?" Toriosae whispered back, all except the last part. Heh...right...a sweatdrop started to form at the back of my head as I felt like even more of a goof than normal. Guess I slept through that lesson too...but I don't sleep in class THAT often. Anyway, back to their conversation.
"Can we please just get back to the task at hand? This change in history isn't just going to fix itself." Supreme Kai of Time begged at this point. "Hmph! Fine, but we're going to finish this later." "Thank goodness...So, like I was saying, you need to use that to go back and fix whatever's wrong with the timeline." I gave them a nod and repeated back to them to make sure I heard that right, "So I just... use this, and fix the problem? Sounds easy enough." "WAIT!" Guess who came back, right on cue.
Rika came running in with a pile of cloths in her arms. "You can't go saving the day in your school uniform! So, Rika brought a better outfit!"
Some time later~
Yeah, we eventually agreed to try on the outfits that Rika had brought, someone needing a little more convincing than the other (Ahem, Toriosae). I ended up being the first to walk back to the time nest with my new outfit. Rika had picked out an outfit for me consisting of a black cape, a bright red jacket, a dark red undershirt, blue pants, black gloves, black work boots, and I'd swapped out my katana for a massive sword that I figured looked better with the outfit. I didn't like the way the katana looked with the outfit, but I felt weird not having any kind of sword on my back, so meh. Why not?
Rika didn't take much longer after me, appearing in a similar ensemble, but different colors. She had a black jacket, pink undershirt, a red cape, black pants, and no gloves. And finally, Toriosae showed up. "No, no, no no no, no. I am not a damn super hero." I was still messing with the cape, which I thought didn't look half bad! "Aw, come on bro. You have to admit, at least the cape looks kinda cool."
"NO CAPES!" "Pfft, fine party pooper. Anyway, I guess we're off now?" I looked to the Supreme Kai of Time to make sure. She giggled and said, "That's right!" With that, I grabbed onto Toriosae's shoulder, Rika grabbed onto mine, and with the scroll in my free hand, we vanished off to the time that the scroll held.
