Chapter 21 - Something's Not Right...?

(Uranohoshi High)

(Leon POV)

Childe was helping Leonidas and Ruin for a bit while I check on helping Ruby finished with her stuff...

"Whew all done!!" Ruby yelled "Wow we been working too hard and for once my body feels stiff I could guess the same for Childe though kinda glad got someone else to helped me out," I said smiled "Now you have a better chance to face against Mr.Zerrick and his goonies," Ruby said "Yep I know it would be a major struggle but I will be willing to give it my very all to stop him," I said "Thank you for helping a lot Leon and I could say same to Childe he was a great person to help us," Ruby said smiled "We are back," Leonidas said "Feel a lot refresh," Ruin said "Hehe they should be good and battle active than before," Childe said grin "Thanks a ton Childe," I said "No problem," Childe said smiled "Hm so you guys wrapping things up?" Childe asked smiled "Leon...you really help my fear with crowds and men..." Ruby said, "Say Ruby why are you scared of us anyway?" Childe asked confused expression "Well my family Kurosawa's are a dignified fishing family, known throughout Numazu. My mom and dad are very strict and overprotective. So I rarely ever encounter with boys other than my dad that's when I met Leon who really changed me and well glad you arrived to Childe of your way to help people and your family" Ruby said smiled "Awe thanks Ruby, heh I learned a lot about you for my first day here in Numazu" Childe said "It's ah... an honor to be the first well boy you talk to Ruby" I said nervously chuckled "Well as much it is the city ain't that safe if Mr.Zerrick still out there" I said sighed "I see well hopefully we will find him soon this upcoming week" Childe said as I nodded "I'm glad you feel that way you two plus I feel safe around you Leon" Ruby said smiled "Y-You do??" I asked shocked "A-Anyway I hope everyone loves their brooches!" Ruby yelled "It's gonna be alright after all you worked hard for all of them," Childe said chuckled...

"Now what to do with the brooches we can't just leave them here...huh??" I asked confused expression "Hm what's wrong Leon?" Childe asked confused "There are 11 of the brooches but there are only 9 Aqours members," I said confused "That's weird???" Childe asked confused "They aren't extras silly," Ruby said nervously "Huh???" Both asked with confused expressions "I don't remember making them" I said "Nor do I" Childe asked confused "They are for you two Childe and Leon" Ruby said giving whale brooch glowing light blue and half electricity to Childe and well mine had starred with music symbol on it... "Ruby...I uh" I said sweatdrop "Ruby I don't know what to say...thanks," Childe said took it, and stared for a bit...

"Ruby I don't-" I said but Ruby cut me off "The tenth one represents to only you Leon it's because I made it for you," Ruby said "Ah..." I said stunned "You don't go on to the stage and I know that but you know, it's not just the people that'd we go on the stage we are connected with deeply. Even if your place is in the audiences or the sidelines, or even back at home...We all treasure you in our own very way and how much you're doing for our city..." Ruby said "It's the hard work and loyal you are willing to help us and we couldn't be even happier when the girls at Nijigasaki club appreciate your hard work too. You helped them qualified for the School Idol Festival! So please...accept this gift from not just me but rest of the Aqours members!" Ruby said smiled tears of joy...

"Alright...thanks Ruby," I said took it as my heart inside felt something then faded while Leonidas and Ruin felt it as well we all smiled...

*LATER AT NIGHT*

Well, today been a busy a quite eventful day for me...and well apparently Childe is over at Oharu Hotel been chilling there for a bit as well... My heart though it did feel differently...I guess maybe...the prophecy only activated when the host slowly understanding what it means to be who they wanted to be...will gain forth strength of new bond warrior born from bright light ShineLeonidas Burst Mode...protector of leadership and one of the legends that would help user... WereRuin his ultimate form battle harder warrior then Super Mode MetalRuin Battle Mode... those are their strongest form of levels... for now till power beyond Super Level thus born warrior glowing in white of light... "Argh, my head," I said rubbing it looking at those weird flashbacks and memories of Leonidas and Ruin in their stronger tier of forms... "Well, when the time comes I'll keep the brooch close till the festival... I will treasure it like I promise to Ruby and with the Aqours members..." I said slowly smiled eyes closed...

However something definitely not right there's an alert on my phone expecting a typhoon to come around...and Childe did warn me of that but also to deal with Mr.Zerrick as well this is gonna cause us some issues... Man I hope we get everyone ideas for the upcoming preparations... That will be nice ugh...time to get good night's sleep...
