Noriko(to nova)- You idiot!!!! Why did you do this??

Nova(while scratching his head)- What did I do? I am the one who got hit at his head not you!!

Noriko(in an angry tone)- Are you stupid?? Why did you came in barging like that?? Because of you my precious herbal cream is now wasted!!

Raiden(in his mind)- Who would have thought this turn of events!! Poor Nova, but I am glad that livon and noriko didn't ended up fighting with each other.

Kiyomi(in her mind)- I am glad that noriko didn't ended up applying cream to livon. Because I don't know why but I am feeling itchy at the place where cream was applied. Oh no!! Don't tell me that its the side effect of the herbal cream. Will I get some kind of skin problem now!!(while scratching her face)

Livon(in his mind)- Hahaha!! Now she can apply her cream to the floor. Hahahaha!!

Nova(to noriko)- Well I am sorry about what happened with you and your herbal cream. But its not my fault!! I only came here to give everyone their lunchboxes. But I damn slipped!! This damn floor is so slippery that it made me slip and then collide with you!! Don't you care about the lunchboxes?? It was so difficult to climb three sets of stairs and that too with 8 lunchboxes in my hands. But now everything is wasted!! What do you think we will do now?? What will we eat now??

Noriko(to nova)- Ohh shut up!! I don't care about your lunchboxes!! It took me one full day to prepare the herbal cream!! What about that!! I was soo close on applying cream to livon, but you had to come and ruin it.

Nova- You need shut up!! I don't care about your damn herbal cream!!

Noriko(while shouting)- Novaaaa!!! Enough!!! You have spoken a lot!!!
SNOWBALL!!

Narrator- Noriko created a 'Snowball' and was going to attack Nova with it but before she could do that Suzune appeared at the window of the hospital room.

Suzune(while sitting the window)- WIRE CONTROL!!

Noriko(to suzune)- You!! Again!!

Narrator- Suzune with her 'Wire Control' attack attached her wires at Noriko's back to stop her from attacking Nova.

Suzune's 'Wire Control' attack lets her get control of the enemy's body just by attaching her wire at their body.

Suzune(to noriko)- Noriko...noriko...noriko. You haven't changed a lot, have you?? From the day at the ceremony where you picked up fight with boys of the Aquatic Country to now where you have started picking up fight with your own countrymen. You really like the fighting others, don't you? But you don't need to worry because I will always be there stop you!! Hahaha!!

Noriko(while shouting to suzune)- Why don't you just leave me alone!! You have really got a bad habit of picking your nose in my business!!

Nova(to noriko)- Aah!! Suzune you should have left the work of controlling noriko in my hands!! If she would have attacked me with her snowballs then I also wouldn't had back down either. Who does she think she is!!

(In his mind)- Oohh great!! I actually didn't even thought of the possiblity that she would attack me. But nevermind now!!

Suzune(to baker who was floating outside the window)- You can came in now baker!! I have taken care of suzune now!!

Baker(with a relieved face)- Aah!! Good to know that I won't be required to apply her weird cream now. I am in coming now!!

Narrator- Baker re-entered the room and again sat at his bed.

Noriko(to nova)- Don't worry nova, I will take of you soon. And you too baker!! The moment I am freed I am coming for you guys then!!

(Miyuki entered the room)

Miyuki(to everyone)- You guys are causing a lot of commotion.

Raiden(while shouting to miyuki)- Ohh its miyuki!!!

Hinaka- Aah!! The fanboy has finally awaken!!

Miyuki(to everyone)- Shhhh!! Keep it down a little its hospital not a playground.

Nova(to miyuki)- Tell this noriko. She is the one causing all the noise.

Noriko(to nova)- What did you say?? You idiot!!

Suzune(to noriko and nova)- Shut up you two!! We are here to talk something serious not to watch this childish fight of yours!!

Kiyomi(while scratching her face)- What serious talk you guys wanna discuss??

Miyuki(to everyone)- Yeah suzune is right. We wanted to discuss what really went down at the Rimsor Forest. And how much we really need to improve!!
Livon, me and ayumi fought chronos. While suzune, baker, raiden and noriko fought ginto. Both of them were the members of dushyanta and we were not able to capture even one of them!!

Ayumi(to miyuki)- Who is chronos? Is this the name of man we fought?

Suzune(to ayumi)- Yess!! It was told us by the commanders.

Livon(in his mind)- So chronos is his name...

Miyuki(to everyone)- Both livon and ayumi were badly injured after their battle with chronos.

Suzune(to everyone)- And the same happened with kiyomi and baker. It was everyone's first mission, so I understand how hard it must have been for you guys. But this is how the life of an Elite Soliders go. Sometimes missions are easiest one of them like discovering new things but at certain times its the most difficult one of them which involves risking your life.

Miyuki(to everyone)- You guys got the taste of the most difficult missions an elite soliders can get. But I and Suzune can proudly say that you guys didn't disappointed us at all. The burning passion you all had within yourself to take down the dushyanta was truly remarkable!! Both the commanders aiden and skyler were really happy with all of your performance!!

Baker(while blushing)- Its okay sir. You don't need appreciate all of us this much!! Even a small appreciation would have done the job.

Raiden(to miyuki)- Yeah you don't worry. Sir Miyuki and Ms. Suzune, we will take down the dushyanta one day!!

Ayumi- Couldn't have said any better.

Noriko(to raiden)- You just keep on sitting here. Elite Soliders of Strand Country will take down the dushyanta.

Nova- Well I have to agree with noriko with this one.

Kiyomi- Don't make it competition between countries. The end goal is still the same for everyone so we all should support each other.

Hinaka- Very true kiyomi. Let these children fight among themselves.

Livon-.......

Miyuki(to everyone)- Good see the burning fire among everyone. But don't forget the World Tournament is coming up in just 3 months.

Nova- Ohh yeah, I forgot about that!! I am definitely excited about the event.

Miyuki(to everyone)- All the 4 students who passed the academy this time and were given the status of the Elite Soliders can participate in this World Tournament. This will be 5th World Tournament to take place.

Suzune(to everyone)- Its the most precious event that is only held after every 5 years. All the 16 New Elite Soliders from 4 countries(Crystal, Aquatic, Strand, Dragon) participate in this knockout tournament. Everyone will be there to watch you guys, the whole world will be present. So all of you must train hard for the event and give out your best.

Narrator- Everyone present at the room was in shock and was trembling with excitement for the event.

Ayumi- This is gonna be good....very good!!

Hinaka- Is this goosebumps, that I am feeling.

Kiyomi- The World Tournament...wonderful!!

Baker- This were the fame for an elite soliders began. This is were miyuki and suzune got their fame from. In the last world tournament miyuki became the finalist and suzune was the semi-finalist.

Raiden- Brillant.

Livon- I will be ready for the World Tournament.

Miyuki(to everyone)- Leave the World Tournament topic aside now. And all 4 of you(kiyomi,baker,ayumi,livon) get better and then get discharged from the hosiptal so you can start your preparations then.

Narrator- After a whole week all 4 of them(kiyomi,baker,ayumi,livon) got discharged from the hospital. All the 10 elite soliders, 5 each from two different countries who went to the Rimsor Forest were standing outside the Aquatic Hosiptal and was getting ready to part their own ways.

Miyuki(to suzune)- Well then this is it. It was great having all of you for the joint mission.

Suzune(to miyuki)- Yeah it was pretty good. Pretty good adventure indeed.

Noriko(to ayumi)- Here ayumi take this herbal cream. I made some more this past week. This is a return gift for you as you were the best patient among all four them.

Ayumi(to noriko)- Ohh thank you for this. Your herbal cream was really effective. All of my wounds were actually healing quite fast, thanks to your herbal cream. But don't you think that you should give this herbal cream to livon as he didn't got any of them last time?

Noriko(to ayumi)- Well I already know that he won't apply it and then it will all go down to waste. So its better to give someone who really appreciates it.

Ayumi(to noriko)- Well then you can give half of this to kiyomi, she also liked it.

Kiyomi(while scratching her face) - Noo!!! I don't want it!! At all!! The herbal cream that was last applied at my face, resulted in me getting side effects. All I have been doing from last week is scratch my face. My whole face has became red!!

Nova(while looking at kiyomi)- Yeah know I see it, it is really all but red. You should change your name to Redomi!!

Narrtor- Everyone remained silent after hearing nova's joke.

Nova(to everyone)- Laugh everyone!! It was suppose to be joke!!

Kiyomi(to nova)- Shut up!!

Nova(to kiyomi)- Yes ma'am.

Raiden and Hinaka- Hahaha!! Good reply kiyomi. Nova deserved it.

Baker- Well I am glad that I didn't applied her cream after all.

Noriko(to baker)- What did you say??

Baker(to noriko)- I was saying that I am going to train very hard for the world tournament. Now its less than three months to go after all!!

Livon- Yeah the world tournament!! One more big step in the life of an elite soldier!!

Noriko(to livon,raiden, hinaka)- You boys also must prepare hard for event.
Who knows what we will happen. You also prepare hard ayumi.

Raiden(to noriko)- The same goes for all four of you too!!

Hinaka- We will see you guys at the world tournament then.

Nova- Yeah!!

Suzune(to everyone)- We should leave you guys now.(referring to nova,kiyomi,baker,noriko). We should now be heading back to the Strand Country.

Kiyomi(to suzune)- Isn't Commander Skyler coming along with us?

Suzune(to kiyomi)- No he has certain work to do. He will be staying at the Aquatic Country for now.

Miyuki- Okay then. We should also be leaving now.

Livon(to elite soliders of strand country)- See you all at the World Tournament then!! Goodbye!!

Narrator- All the elite soliders from Strand Country (suzune,noriko,baker,nova,kiyomi) left the Aquatic Hospital to go back to their own county Strand.

Raiden(to elite soliders of aquatic)- Now they have finally gone.

Hinaka- I am kinda gonna miss those guys.

Ayumi- Yeah me too. They all were so nice and good.

Livon- What are we supposed to do now??

Raiden- How about all of us go to my home? I am sure my father would be delighted to see you guys.

Livon- Yeah sure. I am in. I am sure he will have some tasty food ready for us.

Hinaka- I am in too. Lets go!!

Miyuki- I am sorry I won't be coming with you guys. I will be heading back to the Aquatic Academy to check if their is something left to be done. You guys go ahead and enjoy your night. Raiden say hi to mr. carson for me.

Raiden(to miyuki)- Okay sir I will. Take care sir.

Narrator- Miyuki also left the Aquatic Hospital then.

Livon(to ayumi)- Ayumi you are coming with us, don't you?

Ayumi- No I am sorry, I also won't be coming. I have to head back to my home now.

Hinaka(to ayumi)- Don't be like that ayumi, come with us.

Raiden(to ayumi)- Yeah it will be great to have you too. Before this mission we didn't knew each other but know after everything we have been through, we all have to became good friends now!!

Livon(to ayumi)- Yeah what you did to chronos was remarkable. I wasn't even able to touch him but you stabbed him and protected me from him. I never said this to you but thank you for saving my life back then.

Ayumi- Oh, no need to say that at all. Any other elite solder would have also done the same in that situation. By the way I was only able to stab him from behind because it was a surprise attack and he didn't saw it coming.

Hinaka(to ayumi)- So you are coming now, aren't you?

Ayumi- No I am really sorry but I won't be. You guys enjoy yourself.

Narrator- Ayumi also left the Aquatic Hospital then.

Raiden(to livon, hinaka)- Well we should also start moving now.

Narrator- After certain hours all of three of them(livon,raiden,hinaka) arrived at Raiden's home, where they were greeted by Carson.

Raiden(to carson)- Heyy father we are back!!

Carson- Good to see you all back!! I was waiting. So how was the first mission?

Narrrator- While everyone was talking with each other at the backyard of home, certain someone climbed a tree and sat on the branch. That certain was Ayumi. She was looking at everyone with a smile at her face.

Hinaka(to carson)- It wasn't too bad of a mission. At least for me and raiden that is. But livon got hurt pretty bad in his fight.

Raiden(to carson)- Yeah we fought with a member of dushyanta!! And that too alone!!

Carson(to livon)- So how was it livon? What went down?

Livon(to carson)- The person I fought was the killer of my own parents. His name was Chronos. He was the one who killed both of my parents seven years ago. But I wasn't able to do anything against him. I couldn't even land a single blow on him. My comrade on the other hand not only landed a blow on him but also stabbed him too.

I couldn't even kill the killer of my own parents. How weak I really am.

Carson(while patting livon's head)- Don't be too harsh on yourself livon. We fall so we can learn from our mistakes. You will get enough opportunities to became stronger as you progress. Just don't lose hope.

Livon(to carson)- Thanks for that uncle!! My mind is calmed now.

Now its enough talk for now. Lets go inside and then have the dinner. I have prepared rajma chawal for all four of you.

Raiden- Yeah rajma chawal!! Huh?? But why did you say four, its three of us. Is someone gonna join us with the dinner tonight?

Carson(while pointing her finger at ayumi)- She will be joining us.

Hinaka,Raiden,Livon(with a surprised face)- Huh!! Ayumi you!! We thought you left for your home.

Ayumi(to herself)- Well I am caught now!!

Carson(to ayumi)- You thought you could sneak up and climb the tree without letting anyone notice you? You were also there when livon fought raiden. I saw you then too!! Now come down and lets have the dinner together ayumi.

Raiden(with a surprised face)- She was there when I fought livon!! I didn't even noticed her at that time.

Hinaka(to ayumi)- Now come down ayumi!! We have already seen you now!!

Livon(to ayumi)- Are you going to come with us now? Or will you still say that you want to go somewhere?

Ayumi(with a smile at her face)- Yeah I am coming!! And sorry for being so stubborn. I was just feeling a little shy.

Narrator- Ayumi descended down the tree and then stood before Carson.

Ayumi(while bowing her head towards carson)- My name is Ayumi. And Thank you for having me here for the dinner!! I really appreciate it.

Carson(to ayumi)- Yeah its okay. Just don't hesitate to come over here again. You will be most welcome anytime here. Consider this as your home. And yeah do call me uncle not mr. carson.

Ayumi- Yes okay uncle and Thank you so much!!

Raiden(to everyone)- Now lets go everyone and have the dinner!!

Narrator- Everyone started walking towards the dinner table and then suddenly Hinaka asks a question to Carson.

Hinaka(to carson)- Heyy uncle I saw quite a commotion outside the Aquatic Academy when we were arriving here. Has anything happened?

Carson- Yes. One of the members of dushyanta has been caught and is being held captive in the Aquatic Academy before he could be moved to the Great Leader.

Hinaka(with a surprised face)- What!! A member. Who is it and how did it happened?

Carson- He is a very well known shakti user around the world. He was also the winner of 2nd World Tournament. His name is Denma. About a week ago Denma fought both the Commanders of the Aquatic and Strand Country, Aiden and Skyler at the ground of Aquatic Academy. This was where he was defeated and thus been held captive since then.

Narrator- Everyone present at the table was in total disbelief after what they have heard.

Ayumi(with a surprised face)- What!!!

Livon- This is some big news...

Narrator- Now changing the scene and focusing on Denma who had been held captive at the Aquatic Academy. Denma has been locked inside a prison cell with chains covering up his entire body. Denma's body has gotten a lot weaker since his fight with the Commander due to lack of food provided.

Both Aiden and Skyler were sitting at their chairs outside Denma's cell and was closely mentioning him.

Aiden(to denma)- So how have you been doing denma? Are you still alive?

Skyler(to denma)- Catching you is big achievement after all. You are the very first member of dushyanta that has been caught by us elite soliders.

Aiden(to denma)- You will be shifted to the Great Leader very soon. Why are silent now?

Denma(to aiden and skyler)- Hahaha!! Why don't kill me off. I very well know why you people are keeping me alive. You want me to reveal the information regarding The Dushyanta. But go and tell your Great Leader that I won't tell a damn thing. You elite soliders think that you can just catch a member of dushyanta and held him captive without paying a price for it!! You are very wrong in that regard. Boss Chrollo and the whole Dushyanta won't stay quite. A WAR IS NOW UPON US. A WAR BETWEEN THE DUSHYANTA AND THE WHOLE WORLD!!! HAHAHAHA!!!
