Narrowly Exposing The Hidden Desire

Heated yellowish, late morning sunlight arose throughout the sprightly afternoon sky of Neo Tokyo. A city currently filled with people fell into busyness on commencing their various job activities either from inside or outside the buildings.

Kenta also smoothly conducted his own job activity steadily holding the pale white, yet bulky camera being carried on his left shoulder inside the breezy all-white room. Moreover, the camera precisely recorded the ongoing interview between the reporter, Yukina Ginjo took the seat on the white chair, and the current guest, Prime Minister Kamiya himself.

An enthusiastic, yet surprised expression neatly bloomed on Yukina's lips toward the presence of Prime Minister Kamiya himself. A smile of eagerness widely opened on The Prime Minister's lips as he watched the reporter clear her throat and unfolded her welcoming grin, readying herself on prolonging the interview.

"Sorry, I'm still…shocked you able to attend this interview, Mr.Prime Minister," Yukina remarked sheepishly, shaking her head.

Prime Minister Kamiya cooly nodded and replied, "It's okay, Mrs.Yukina. I'm glad to be here since I didn't have a busy schedule today."

"Okay, so, what kind of encouragement or maybe message you wanted to share with the citizens for the heroes ?" Yukina asked, raising her enthusiasm in her voice as she precisely glanced at the Prime Minister.

"Heroes such as Chemistra, Akushijo, Agano, and lastly the new hero himself, Sparror who recently saved the whole city from the humanoids' terror?" Yuka added.

A frigid shock struck through Kenta's veins as he heaved his staggering eyebrows and felt his whole limbs shiver. He evenly constantly bit his lips due to the imagery of The Blazing Hero, Sparror valiantly standing in front of him corrupting his whole vision shortly, reverting it into the current view. A current view showed Prime Minister Kamiya taking a deep breath for refreshing his lung.

"My best recommendation for the citizens is just to cherish and appreciate the heroes' accomplishments." Prime Minister Kamiya stated blithely and continued with an affirmed suggestion, "Although there were some casualties and collateral damage caused by the battle, the heroes already did their best effort and we should not antagonize them since in indirectly…we needed their aid too."

"It can make them feel appreciated and encourage them to keep continuing their heroic spirit." Prime Minister Kamiya assertively insisted, "Especially with Sparror since he was less experienced with the Superhero stuff compared with the others."

Another mention of the word Sparror stung through Kenta's mind, vibrating the clutching grip on the camera. His stammering mind forced Kenta's to tremblingly drop down a captivated jaw the longer the interview presumed, allowing a male coworker who was standing beside his left gave him a puzzling stare.

Kenta's enthralling eyes swiftly projected a vast-white view that encroached on the entirety of his view, transferring him into another reality. A reality where he was completely embedded by glittering bronze armored with the wolf motif, resiliently stepped on the ground swarmed by the wild-dancing flames.

Gleaming brown sparks illuminated both of Kenta's eyes as he witnessed the burning presence, triggering thrilling joy with him slowly lifting his knuckle. A presence of Sparror hushedly hovered in the middle of the untamed fiery swarm, perceiving his stoic sight being enveloped with the flaring torches toward Kenta.

Kenta joyfully chortled on seeing his desirable's prey stare and shouted with uncontrollable delirium, "I finally…can see your presence clearly!!!"

"Now, It's time to meet your true hunter." Kenta asserted, changing his echoing voice into a stern and frigid murmuring.

The lingering thrill within Kenta stung his beating heart, pressing both of his feet that surged out the brown electrical strings. He hastily leaped off from the swarming ground and plunged his knuckle toward the desirable target who waved his fiery hands for casting out the instantaneous fiery barricade.

Sadly, the thrilling reality where he faced off against The Blazing Hero met its sudden end with the abrasive white flashes instantly transcending into the whole view. The blurry flashes dispersed faster than the blink of an eye, returning Kenta to the current reality when his left arm endured a light shake.

"Oy, Kenta, Oy, Kenta." The whispering voice of the male coworker flung into his ears.

"Oy Kenta." The man repeated, snapping out Kenta with all of his shivering motions quickly halted.

Hence, Kenta gasped out a hefty breath away after the male coworker tapped on his left shoulder, forcing him to glance at him. Kenta hurriedly shook his head in agitation as he closed his lips before glaring toward his coworker, dropping an irritated expression through his furrowing eyebrows.

"Oy, What happened to you?" The male coworker asked with a bemused tone and curiously guessed with him winking his left eyebrow "Are you over excited with your girlfriend's concert today?"

"I bet it's yes," The male coworker added, extending his alluring grin and pushing his shoulder onto Kenta's arm in a jocular demeanor.

Kenta rolled his eyes in bitter annoyance and groaned, "If I said yes, you will be satisfied with the answer, Tenichi?"

"Okay, okay, Kenta, I accepted it." Tenichi replied, gesturing a shrugging hand as he took steps backward and muttered, "I am asking that because you've been acting quite weird. Like you suddenly felt the most joyful thing that ever happens in your life."

Kenta grunted with him biting his lips and bickered, "Whatever you wanted to say. Besides thanks for the….reminder."

With the short conversation between Tenichi ended as he began to walk afar from his distance, Kenta steered his gaze onto the interview and sluggishly widened his smirk. The smirk got wider in rapid seconds passing with the answer from The Prime Minister precisely streamed through his hearing.

"Even though Sparror was still inexperience than the others, he indeed did a quite lot of spectacular things in his own job." Prime Minister Kamiya merrily remarked and inhaled the soothing air in the surroundings as tears of gladness shed from his eyes.

Yukina tapped her lips and raised her surprised eyebrows as she made a guess, "Is the spectacular effort included the time when he saved you from the assassin's bullet?"

Prime Minister Kamiya shakily nodded, "That one…too. I'm aware Misaki asked him to guard me, but at the same time….he saved me by his own will."

"I…truly gladful I'm still alive because of him." Prime Minister Kamiya professed in overflowing blitheness with both of his hands vibrating and continued, "I will never forget that moment and try my best to repay…the debt!!

Kenta who persistently held the camera was touched by the deepened desire to hunt as he swiftly broadened his grinning smirk. Tiny pellucid brown electrical strings emerged beneath Kenta's and vanished in split seconds by slowly stepping the ground below, fluently letting his desire invade his whole mind, especially with him freed a sigh of contentment from his lung.

'After this, I should take permission to go home earlier.' Kenta mumbled enthusiastically within his mind, 'Returning to the old base of mine will be a very…wonderful nostalgia since it's been abandoned for like 5 years.'

The bright afternoon sky vastly arose through the whole scenery of Neo Tokyo and beamed its sunlight on every rooftop of buildings, houses, and many more places. Masafumi Highschool also received the warming touched by the sun, especially on the bubbly barrier that safely secured the crowd of students inside.

Drumming noises of chatting and screaming out astounded gasps resonated throughout the rooftop area, originating from the enlivened students. Most of them centered their eyes on their phones or gadgets, showing the video clip of the recent interview between Yukina Ginjo and Prime Minister Kamiya.

"It's pretty great news that Prime Minister Kamiya acknowledging the Superheroes again!" A short-black hair boy said proudly, slightly pushing closer his stare toward the ongoing recording of the interview.

The long-yellow dyed hair boy beside the short-haired student repeatedly tapped on his shoulder and said confidently, "Yup indeed, it is!"

"I meant…come on the heroes save Neo Tokyo three times straight from every large crisis, of course, Mr.Prime Minister…will give acknowledgment or better a reward for them!!" The dyed hair student shouted in flooding enthusiasm consuming his thoughts before he lowered his voice,

"Even though the recent was now quite good as both…Chemistra and Agano remained in the hospital."

"Yeah…that's the unfortunate news." The short hair boy replied with a bitter tone and began to spread a reminder, "But hey at least there's still Sparror."

Hatoshi who occupied the seat in the middle-right spot heaved his soothed eyes as he darted at the ongoing conversation of the other high schoolers after capturing the glimpse of praise from through his hearings. His fellow classmate on the front, Hina fixated her eyes as she finished her chewing process and swallowed the pieces of her meal, placing the fork on the left side of the lunchbox.

"Feeling impressed with the Superhero stuff again, Hatoshi?" Hina asked curiously, tilting her head to the left.

Hatoshi giggled, "Yeah of course."

"I indeed really like seeing other people praising the heroes,' effort on saving the city," Hatoshi assured with a relieved tone, nodding his head and steering his joyful glance toward his fellow classmate

"Oh, I see. Hina resumed the flow of the conversation by rubbing her chin and humming briefly, "So…are you planning to make an artwork based on the recent victory of the heroes?"

Hatoshi blissfully grinned and said, "Well….about that, yeah I'm planning on making the artwork too."

"Did you ever…wanted to sell your artwork too?" Hina countered with an intrigued question as she painted her entire lips with a beguiled smirk and assertively exposed her point, "

"Not now, but that's quite a good idea too I must admit," Hatoshi stated collectedly, marking one of his fingers onto Hina shortly.

However, the conversation between Hina and Hatoshi was finally over when his other two classmates entered their quiet lunch seats. The two students who were none other than, Naoki and Satoru swiftly headed onto the empty seat beside their friend, occupying them as they set their lunch boxes.

"Yo, Hatoshi, did you know where Yuna is?" Naoki greeted his classmate with him furrowing teasing eyebrows.

Hatoshi sheepishly sighed and shook his head, " In the meeting with the cooking club."

"Ah…fine," Naoki bickered, expressing his disgruntled lips and out loudly shouted an annoyed groan when he switched his furrow toward Satoru, "Speaking about Satoru over here, he got something very, very special to announce."

"Hmm, what's is it, Satoru," Hina asked, steering her intrigued glance toward the glasses schoolboy who exhaled the bothersome air away.

Satoru swiftly pulled out his phone from the grasp of his pocket latched on the upper right of the uniform, pressing the button in the middle below his phone. Hence, he flipped his phone and unveiled the glowing white-bordered picture of a twin-tail violet-haired woman joyfully exposing her grinning smile.

A picture with the tiny neon-blue rectangular latched on the middle of the woman and safely maintained a barcode caught the attention of the other conversation members. The glassed schoolboy avidly released a loud burst of shaking giggle and smoothly closed his eyes in an elated demeanor for brief seconds.

"I luckily got the ticket for today's Yukari concert!!" Satoru happily stated and shakily continued, "It's goddamn…wonderful as from what I heard, her new song will be released first on the stage!!"

Hina grumbled and said, "I thought you got an internship or a huge amount of money, but it's a concert about your favorite artist. Sorry, not very interested in it."

"Well…at least for me, it's quite great to hear that," Hatoshi remarked in a praised demeanor, encouraging Satoru to form a contented grin.
