The Awakening Unknown

Chapter 15 - 15: "The First Awakening"

"The First Awakening"

The man Jeong Li walks into the room. "World Leader, I have to ask you about an unusual S rank."

The man that stands in front of Jeong Li is the 'World Leader' a man with an athletic built, covered by his white button up. Golden brown quiff cut hair, and green dazzling eyes. He steps to Jeong Li hovering over him.

"Are speaking about Abis Uzun." He said with an excited voice. "Yes who is he," the world leader looked around as if he was looking for the answer himself. Then suddenly he sparked an idea. 

"Abis Uzun is still a mystery to me, Anja took a liking to him and he's regarded as the first non soldier to kill a monster. How about you go investigate his home and daily life since your an assassin."

The World leader began to praise himself, scratching his head, shaking his own hand saying "I'm a genius". 

"Ok", Jeong Li responded. "Oh, we're having a nation meeting in two days don't be late." The world leader told him.

-Scene Change-

I lay in bed, hungry and aggravated. I try to close my eyes, but my hunger forces me to open them. I toss and turn in bed, as the moon shines into my room. I remember that I bought some food today, I hit myself on the head thinking how did  I forget. I got an apple from my bag and began to wash it, I then cut them into evenly distributed slices. I walked back into my room and ate the apple slices. Somewhat fulfilled I lay back down and prepared to sleep. Between the sounds of my fan blowing, I hear a loud beep. 

I sit up as the beep sound came to me as a surprise, it was most likely set that way to wake me up. I crawled out of bed and creeped along my marble floors. When I opened my door I find no one. [Perception activated], [Precognition activated]. My eyes strain, I find 7 people hiding amongst my house. They're represented by flames all of different colors. 3 Red flames, 2 blue flames, 1 white flame and 1 black flame. I turn the light on shout show yourselves. As I creak up to one person, he launches at me. I grabbed his wrist and broke it.

After that Jeong Li walked out, "well done Abis." "What are you doing here," he snapped his fingers and all of his men stood. "It was a test and you passed." Then they vanished into thin air.

My eyes strain, sight of vision goes blurry. I carefully return to my room and lay on my bed. Everything is blurry, I slept most of the night... ~YOU SHALL AWAKEN SOON ENOUGH~ a distorted voice reached me, I hopped out of bed and poured me a glass of tea. I browsed through the news feed. There's going to be a meeting held in just 2 days with all of the world leaders. I can't shake this odd feeling that I don't belong here in this world. I jot down my thoughts in a journal that I keep. Then finally laid down to sleep for the rest of the night.

It's 9:15 a.m! I get out of bed with my vision returning to me. I stepped into shower, steam filling the room. My feet on the ceramic floor, water dripping down my back as my mind go dull. After I finished the shower I brushed my teeth, returning to my room that's across the hallway. I dress myself in an all black outfit once more. I wear shorts over my compression pants, and a long-sleeve shirt with white bolded words written in Japanese "かねき", I knew what it meant when I first bought but now I no longer know. I grab my phone and place it in my shorts pocket, I finally leave home to make my way to town for groceries.

It's a gloomy day, I brought my umbrella just in case it rained. Most of the concession stands are closed. The stores are opened, but packed because people want to buy things from the market but cannot evenly distribute customers from the stands closing. I walk into a small shop across town. When I walked in I hear a bell caused by me opening the door to warn workers that someone entered the building. I see 2 workers, one old man with glasses and a cane, and a female with brown hair pulled back into a ponytail, "Welcome", both said to me. I wave to them and walked to the back for a chocolate bar and water. When I walk up to the counter the woman began to ring up my order. "Well this be all, sir grabbed the bag and responded with a simple yes than paid.  

Before I walked out it began to rain, the old man called me over and told me to stay here until the rain died down. Then he hands me my card, and told me I left it. "Are you a soldier"? He asked me. With no reason to lie, I explained that I was and that I'm a new recruit. "Oh, so you're a D rank im guessing." I begin to take off my glove on my left hand and reveal the X on my hand. I'm the first X level, but placed in the S rank category. Their eyes widened as if they have spotted a ghost. "No way," they remarked. The both of them bombarded me with questions and I promised them that I will explain in a minute. I asked can I shop for a minute then come back and tell my story, they whole-heartily agreed and waited.

I finished shopping for groceries, and I finished explaining my story. They also informed me that they were always wanting to have a high ranked soldiers come to their shop and that they started this shop because of a highly ranked soldier. I took a picture for them and they hang me on the wall. "For now on your our very own special customer," they said in perfect harmony. When the rain finally let up I return home.
