Enforcers

Chapter 87

Age 1991

"How much do you want to be involved in serious matters..."

That had been what Master Storm had asked the young Seraphin that was on Squad Six... The boy"s answer hadn"t shocked the old man. On the contrary... He expected it. He saw so much of himself in that boy after all... So young, and yet filled with determination. Not potential though. Hero might have the spirit to get back up, but it was clear he lacked the ability to learn quickly.

"Master Storm..." Angel said quietly as she frowned at the old man. "Was it really a good idea to leave that up to him... I mean he was a sixteen-year-old boy who thinks he is a lot stronger than he actually is?" She asked quietly. She knew Master Storm could be insane sometimes but that seemed to be something that was just downright foolish... Something even he shouldn"t have done...

"You underestimate the newer genration Angel..." Master Storm said giving a small smile. He turned in his chair staring out the window. "Children are our next generation. I believe that they will be the ones to carry us forward. This generation is. .h.i.tting its limit. That is why we recruit new Enforcers every new Age. Our group is dying. There are less than three hundred of us currently. Every day we lose more. The Enforcers are what inspires hope in the Nation of Red. For them to fall would be the biggest blow... That is why we will grow. That is why I will choose to believe in every kid..."

"Then... We should get even more recruits!" Angel announced pointing up to the roof is a pose. "More Enforcers means more fighters and soldiers to battle the Bestia Macht!"

"Have you been talking to Ward?" Master Storm asked curiously. "Ward has been going on about that for quite some time."

"Well... Yeah. But it"s a good idea. We need more members." Angel stated. "I mean I hate Ward. The guys a total a.s.s, but he has a point. Joining the Enforcers isn"t easy. We get hundreds of potential recruits, but only accept less than fifty of them... Getting more could really help us you know-"

"You seem to be forgetting. Being an Enforcer is about having that spark. I refuse to let anyone who doesn"t have the spark to join. It would only slow us down and get those who lack the spark killed." Master Storm stated in a loud voice. "None of them would be able to last through even a single hard mission... That is why I let Rajin exam them. He can tell if they have that spark." The old man reached down rubbing the back of his pet which let out a quiet purring noise.

Angel let out a heavy sigh. "Alright, sir... It was just a thought." There was a moment of silence as she stared at her leader. "Squad six has certainly been something this year... What has it been... Four Years since they last got a new recruit, and now here they are with five of the strangest recruits I"ve ever seen... That reminds me though. That blind kid. Why didn"t you give him his test in brail?"


"Reasons."

"You didn"t think to make the test in brail did you..."

"That is correct." Master Storm stated giving a nod. "I"ve personally looked at the files on all five of those recruits... One in particular really stands out to me. A young fourteen-year-old girl. I"m not sure yet but she has a vast amount of power and potential. Leagues above even the Seraphin and n.o.ble."

"That girl... Is she really that strong?"

"Yes. And she has the stench of the Order all around her." Master Storm reached up stroking a hand through his long white beard.

"The Order?"

"Ahh. It is nothing. Just a small group that has caught my interest. I doubt that they will ever be relevant. What is relevant though is a new crime syndicate that has recently popped up? They are calling themselves the Organization. As of now, we have very little data on them, but we know that they are after the Ruby ring."

"So you hid the ring somewhere safe?"

"No, I gave it to the Squad, that is the least qualified to keep it safe."

"Why!"

"Because I thought it would be funny?"

"Why!"

Master Storm cleared his throat as he looked away from the girl. "So anyways." He said changing the topic. "The Organization... I still as of now know very little about them... We have managed to capture one of their members for questioning but he"s a rock-solid man... No matter what form of torture we inflict he doesn"t talk. We still know nothing about them... No idea who they are working with. One thing that we need to figure out is their motivation..."

"Well? They want that ring right. What exactly is the ring?"

Master Storm let out a small sigh. He slowly raised his hand up showing off a diamond ring that was on his finger. "The five-colored rings... White Diamond, Red Ruby, Green Emerald, Blue Sapphire, and Black Coal... They are five rings made during Age 100... They were all scattered across the Nation of Red ending up in several various places. All five of them make up a Key... A key to a mysterious vault that is said to hold a great weapon..."

"How do you know all this?"

"That is not important." Master Storm said giving a slight shrug. "What is important, is keeping them out of the enemies hands."

"So we should lock the rings up?"

"No."

"Why!"

"Because it isn"t fun, if the world isn"t in danger!" Master Storm announced.

"Oh my G.o.d, you are so irresponsible!"

Master Storm gave a small chuckle before his face suddenly grew serious. He reached out placing a hand on the gla.s.s of his window. "Something that boy said resonated with me. Something I seem to have forgotten in my old age."

"How much do you want to be involved in serious matters..."

Master Storm gave a small smile. "He didn"t hesitate to answer..."

"As much, as it"ll take for me to learn what being an Enforcer really means..."

"Is that why you decided to send Squad Six on a new mission?" Angel asked.

"That boy... Hero Otoko. He was supposed to go to Squad One but choose Squad Six. He"s a Seraphin, who is making friends, with a Blind Kid, A Crossdresser, A Loli, and a n.o.ble. He was trained by the previous Squad One Captain, Okami Otoko, a dear friend of mine, and he was the adopted son of Jaune, a very powerful Enforcer member who pa.s.sed away. And most of all. He reminds me so much of myself when I was his age... Hero Otoko..."

"You seem to have taken a liking to that boy sir."

Master Storm gave a small nod. "It would seem I have..."

"That reminds me, sir... We need to go over how much you spent-"

"Crash!"

The window exploded as Mast Storm threw himself out of it escaping the clutches of his Angel...
