26. PROBLEMATIC ASSAULT!

From the pressure of power and task, the ground beneath both warriors broke, Codey was blown back and with the earthy energy of the waves, immediately raged toward Codey through the breaking ground, Codey spilled and spun through the air, at a brisk speed as his outer garments tore. Viewers were surprised, even the announcer. This attack was something no one expected.

"Stay sharp!" Codey's memories flowed back once he barely felt his face, the shield was still somehow kept together... however, he was nearing the edge of line.

[Meanwhile at Tokyo City a few minutes earlier]

|Tokyo City - Mainichi no kimochi High School, Thursday, 9:10 a.m.|

"Maaan, what is this christ! First Carissa completely disappears and finally Tim...." Tooru walked inside of her classroom when seeing her classmates, however, once she looked at them, each and single one of them was sleeping on table. "Whoa. what is going on, why is everyone sleeping at a day like this?" Chapple, who just arrived after Tooru wondered with a determined confusion. She walked towards one of her female classmates, and tried to gently slap her and hopefully wake her. "Hey! Zoey! Hello.." But Zoey, without moving, just kept quiet. "To be honest, this is kind of strange why would everyone be asleep, I didn't see a body since morning either, not on the outside, it was all so empty, like a hollowed out space, as if nobody lived here." Chapple answered once quickly scratching his hair. "Oh! Chapple, you two are also awake?" Somebody quickly came walking from behind them. "Rachel. you're also awake?" "Yes, you see, this morning once I woke up, I think I saw some sort of bright light, but I thought that was just a reflection of sun in the Windows, however. it could be something much more strange, hehe..." Embarrassed enough, Rachel scratched the top of her head. "Oh, right! Where's Shinkaku and where's Kirashito, they haven't been in school, could this sleep thingy effect them too." Rachel wondered. "Hm, what effect? How do you know about something like that?" Chapple confusingly wondered when giving his hands on the hips of his. "Well, don't you think it's some sort of an effect, I don't see why would everyone apart from us stay asleep...?" "You've got the point, maybe I should try and call Tim, if he answers we know that he's fine..." Chapple quickly reached for his phone and gave a call, but after a few seconds, it was told there was no signal. "What, no signal, it won't link up...." Chapple and Rachel both faced at the phone quickly in confused feelings. "Oh! I know! Why don't we call Myles!" Rachel smiled. Another call forward, but no answer, no connection or linking up. "Man, this is confusing me completely, feels as if everybody took a sleeping pill, how about this, let's go to Tim's home, let's see if anybody will answer, nobody at school is awake, just look, even Mrs. Henna is asleep." Mrs. Henna was gently snoring and with a blushing cheeks, smiled. "So handsome. please, take me with you." Her words giggled out. ".....I rather not know what she's dreaming about." The three students were unamused and quickly backed out.

[Several minutes later of walking]

|Tokyo City - Furō Street - Thursday, 9:30 a.m.|

Chapple walked towards the bell and tried to ring, to see if Tim would answer, but enough of waiting together, there was no answer. "Now I'm worried.." Rachel called, and exactly as she said, her expression was very worried. Chapple hoped of opening the door, but no use. "It won't budge, of course. the only way to get in is if we break glass, or if we try to ring the other apartments." "I think we should try ringing first, no need to break in." With a flinching expression, Tooru spoke once sighing, quickly trying several rings, somebody answered, apartment 308. "Hello." The three of them smiled after hearing a very friendly male voice. "Hello! Sorry! We're friends of Shinkaku Tim, is it possible if you open the door for us, there is no answer from his apartment?" Without knowing who was the human on the other side of the ring, the shadowed face gave a smile. "Oh, Shinkaku! Of course! However, he's not at home right now!" The person spoke. "But.... where is he then?" "How could I know, I tried to knock on his door but had no answer" The man reached for his keys near the table while leaning the voice phone on his ear. "Well, we thought he might have fallen asleep, just like the other people. How come, you haven't fall asleep either?" Wondered Chapple. "Oh? I should be asking you the same, hold on, come on in, I might be able to explain a few things, use the elevator on the right to the top floor and search for apartment 308." The classmates looked at each other a bit serious. "No, no, that's all right, we'll go look for other things." Smiled Rachel shy but at the same time embarrassed. "Ah no worries, like I said, I know a few things." Smiled the man. Finally the three of them agreed and walked to the top floor. Walking slowly while searching for apartment 308. "Huh, this apartment is rather fun to walk around, this red carpet makes me feel as if I was really important." Chapple answered with unintimidating smile. "Oh come on, you always see yourself as if you were more important than others." Tooru called once cranking her hand. "Hey! If I was that important, I'd have everything, and everything is fun to have!" "You would still lack in a bunch of things. you may be important, but you wouldn't be extremely rich to have everything." Tooru sighed, finally the three of them arrived to the apartment 308 and knocked. When letting them in, they came inside, once seeing they were confused. "What on earth. why is there so many of you?" Questioned Chapple. "Excuse us...." The three of the visitors looked, once seeing a massive room. ("Well it sure is a massive built room.") "So, you're friends of Tim Shinkaku is that correct?" Questioned the man in biker jacket spoke, he had somewhat nice black hair and a calm smile. "Y....yes. we are.... is.... um... there something wrong?" Tooru questioned when making a step back. "Calm down. we aren't here to harm you, like I said, we'd like to explain, what is this thing all about." The man spoke. "I am Gintoki Jintensha."

"But let's get to explaining" Before Gintoki spoke, a girl quickly interrupted. "Hey! You can introduce us as well! We're not lone-wolves!" A girl with pink hair spoke, Chapple was already red in his mind when seeing a beautiful woman standing in front of him. ("I'm not a pervert. but no offensive things, those breasts.. they sure can lead many males into her grip!") "What are you thinking about, you stranger?" The girl questioned. "Calm, down, don't be so angry all the time, Issa." A boy who was also somewhat of a teenager spoke, holding a gaming console in his right arm. Gintoki was heavily disturbed. "Hey shut up, you should speak things, all you do is play that game of yours 24/7." "Sure, whatever you say, 'dear'." Issa became steadily annoyed when hearing his words. "You two, settle down, Anyway, these two are Issa Shoujin and Nagisa Shinkokuna." Gintoki quickly explained. "Uhm, no problem, we just would like to know, why uh, we came here but of course, sorry for not introducing ourselves firat, I am Tooru, this is Chapple and then Rachel." Explained Tooru. "Yeah, I'm pretty aware of you... now, let me explain about the thing and why everyone is sleeping." ("Going straight to his point, huh?") Thought Chapple forcibly unamused.

"Right now, this city and half of the Japan is forced into a spell of sleeping... There is an assault going on around Tokyo where a man seeks down somebody very close to you." Explained Gintoki. "What, a 'sleeping spell' and somebody is being wanted, somebody who is close to us?" Questioned Rachel. "Yeah, that's right, and there is no reason to hide it. As expected, Tim Shinkaku is being wanted down by a group of people, the only goal is because of his new abilities." Explained Gintoki. "Huh..... since when does Tim have any special abilities and he'd tell us if he had! How do you know this much about him anyway and who are you precisely?" Questioned Tooru a bit annoyed.

While the three children have met with a group of people, there was somebody assaulting people whom slept, trying to figure out if it is who they are looking for.

"We are.... Soul Callers"

In Zero World, Tim and his friends are being kept in a C.A.C..
