{A/n: Here's chapter three }

{3rd p.o.v}

At once all seekers were teleported to a break room. Tsuki realized that he was a 'Hider', while looking sullen from the discovery he reluctantly got up and made a run for it. He tries to remember at least half of the people who got teleported while looking for a safe zone.

He crosses paths with the blue haired twins from earlier, ~seems like they also are 'Hiders'~. He felt uneasy because they can still kill him, of course he won't let that happen but nothing's wrong with being cautious.

They both look at him with a calculated gaze in their eyes.

"Hi! your Tsuki Matabu right?" The more expressive one says with a smile.

Suddenly they called out to Tsuki. He wasn't shocked that someone knew who he was, afterall he is famous but not for the right reasons. He answered boredly " and if I am?"

They didn't look put down by what he said, quite the opposite instead. 

The other one who hadn't spoken yet stepped forward and spoke calmly  "I'm Luke and this is my younger twin brother Luka were both from the Sasaki family" he did a bow out of formalities.

He continued "We'll like to propose  a temporary alliance or comradeship of some sort, throughout the rounds." 

Tsuki scoffed and raised his eyebrows then spoke coldly " and why should I accept this proposal?"

" Simply because we need your strength, both my brother and I don't have the stamina needed to protect ourselves during this round or the next. In order for us to survive we need a sword or one might say shield." Luke said, staring at Tsuki straight in the eye, not being intimidated.

Tsuki scratched his head while saying "Listen kids, I'm no sword nor am I a shield for you to take then throw away after." He started getting pissed, and gritted his teeth. " I don't know why you specifically need me but you got the wrong person and even if I should agree which will never happen, what's in it for me?" Tsuki finished.

Luke then spoke up " well we saw how you cleared the stages/rounds and you fit the criteria!" He said curtly and continued " plus we've observed you and it seems you might be having some mental problems. Probably with headaches, sudden bloodlust or agitation?" Luke and Luka said the last bit totally in sync, Tsuki's eyes widened in shock.

It baffled him to believe someone noticed. It is true how he has been feeling so, since the starting of the rounds, but he just sleeps on it. " How'd yo-" before he could question them a gunshot grazed his cheek. 

Both the Sasaki twins and Tsuki were in a daze;but hurriedly ran beside each other looking for cover or a safe zone. Bullets rained after them, they dodged each one skillfully. Tsuki turned his head to see who it was, it was the lady who asked the first question in the beginning of this shit show.

The twins ducked behind a corner, the Twins turned to their right noticing a safe zone and yelled at Tsuki ,"TSUKI THERE'S A SAFE ZONE TO OUR RIGHT".

Tsuki followed what they said and indeed they're was one he nodded at them raised up with his pistol, at the same time the twins were at the safe zone paying the amount for three people. Tsuki shot at the woman when she bent the corner, but she dodged and shot at him two (2) times. Tsuki clicked his tongue and ducked behind a couch. She then turned her attention to the twins;but at that same time Tsuki took the chance while she was distracted to shoot her. He didn't even bother looking at the notifications.

The twins told him to hurry, with his now heightened senses he heard running. ~they might of heard the commotion~ Tsuki slid into the safe zone before the gate closed.

He catches his breath on the floor, and the twins stood stiffly both wondering what to do next.

Tsuki glanced at them panting and spoke "thanks..ha for..haa paying for me haa" Tsuki said smiling a bit.

But the twins just shake their heads. "It was nothing after all you saved us just now so it's only fair" Luke said softly. And Luka just grinned widely. Tsuki stood up stretched and said, pouting " well I guess I can agree to your proposal...". The twins gaped in shock not thinking he'll agree. Luka started but Luke finished " i-i can say for sure we appreciate it..." " but what made you agree, you seemed pretty serious when you said it'll never happen?"

Tsuki smirked " let's just say that protecting people isn't as bad as I thought plus it seems to have more thrill to it than it seems" he continued lazily " plus I haven't gotten to know why you guys know what's happening to me. But even if this is a thing now I want nothing to do with you guys after this is over."

Luke and Luka were baffled. Of course they knew the young master of the Matabu family lived for thrills and thrills alone; but they didn't know it applied to life threatening situations as well. Tsuki laughed, "what? cat caught your tongue?" 

They blushed in embarrassment. They exclaimed  ""no of course not, we were just taken back ahem''", they continued. ''You see, the black king gave us a skill to see a person's mental and physical status" Tsuki queried his eyebrow in interest.

And asked "I thought they were only able to give coins or points?" 

( The black king shakes his head in disbelief )

( The white king sighs )

~Anyways~  Luka sighed answering Tsuki's question "Yes it would seem so..but it seems the host didn't speak about such things on purpose..."

Tsuki knew that the host wasn't going to tell them the complete truth since day one, why would they? 

"Anyways, with this ability we can see almost everything about your mental status or others. Whether it be blood pressure or if you ate or not. Your mood, health or an overall body scan." Luka explained. "But of course it has its limits, we can't see all of what we listed above since It all depends on how much said person trusts us, and we can only use it 4 times a day." Luka sighed wearily.

Hm that makes sense, if they approached me so quickly it means my condition is going into a terminal state and they took this opportunity to get me over to their side.

~ it's sly of them. But I wonder if this connects to my dream? I was acting pretty blood thirsty and I seemed to be in pain then...~

"Hm ok but how is only seeing my mental and physical status going to help or cure me?" 

Luke and Luka made eye contact. "Because that's not the only thing we received with the gift." Luke stared at Tsuki up and down. Tsuki fidgeted in place. Luke's eyes made it seem like he could even see what was going on in his mind. "An endless mirror" would be how he'll describe it . He wouldn't mind If it was one of them only; but now both of the people in front of him were staring at him like he was an art work on exhibit.

They seemed to sense he was uncomfortable, reverted their eyes to his and continued what they were saying.

"We have something called ' Hands Of The World Tree' . It allows us to make a few remedies or you would call it potions in video games. But to help or cure you we would need a few things from EIS( Edens item shop)" Luka shrugged nonchalantly.

Tsuki thought they were lucky to have such skills. " And let me guess this is something strictly restricted to you guys only? There's no one else I can go to? Would you be using my coins to get what you need?" both nodded "precisely but we'll pay for the first dose of items other than that you'll pay from onwards (✿^‿^)!"

~ GOD DAMNIT~

Tsuki rubbed his head in frustration, his eyebrows furrowed. But nothing could save him from what he heard next.

" We would also need a proper scan of your body, so we politely ask you to strip" both gestured to him. "Oh! And don't worry about people seeing you, we still have a time limit of one hour and fifty minutes.and no one can see us in here anyway＼(^o^)／"

"Huh!??"

( The white king covers his mouth with a fan bashfully )

( The black king tells you stop being a pu*sy and do it )

"SHUT UP!!" Tsuki yelled at the notifications. "Please hurry it up Tsuki-kun" "Shut up both of you!!"
