Kirin: Something worst?

Kusuri was now awake.

Tekko: Yes. Domu is a member of a criminal organization that has been taking towns hostage. They have political corruption, and are a real threat. Domu is somewhere in-between. He's not very high up, but he isn't at the bottom of their food chain. We happened to stumble upon him by accident, but I feel we should target them.

Kusuri: So there's guys stronger than Domu in this organization?

Tekko grinned.

Tekko: Does it unnerve you?

Kusuri: Nope. Sounds interesting, a good adventure. It'll just give us an excuse to work out till we get stronger.

Kirin: Wait a second, where's Hoshi.

Hoshi walked into the room.

Hoshi: Here I am.

Kirin: Thank goodness you're alive!

Hoshi: Why would I be dead?! I'm not the one who didn't do his job and ran off to fight a crazy-strong dictator!

Kirin: Yep, you missed out!

Hoshi: Look at you two! You looked like mummies in those bandages!

Kusuri: Heh. I guess we did get bashed up a bit.

Hoshi: A bit?! You were burned internally!

Kusuri: That bad, huh?

Hoshi: Yes that bad! You could have died!

Kusuri: Sounds serious.

Kirin: So what now?

Tekko: We're almost at the island the tournament's being held in. We're gonna rest and relax. Then, when we enter the tournament, fight out hardest. Later today, there's gonna be a festival. We're gonna hit it, then rest up again. Tonight, focus on enjoying yourselves.

Kirin pumped his fist.

Kirin: Yes!

Hoshi: Are you sure that's a good idea? They're pretty bashed up.

Tekko: Oh, a little fun never hurt anyone.

A few hours later, they pulled up to a dock and got off. Tekko touched the scroll and it transformed into a scroll. He put the scroll away and they checked into a hotel. In the room, Kusuri went onto the balcony. He did a hand-stand and started pushing his body up and down.

Hoshi: What the hell are you doing?!

Kusuri: Training, duh.

Hoshi: Tekko said relax!

Kusuri: I'll be relaxing plenty at the festival. I gotta be focused now and spend the next few hours training.

Kirin: He's right. I gotta feeling this tournament isn't gonna bea buncha pushovers.

Hoshi: So? How is that any reason to push yourself like that?! He could re-open his wounds!

Kusuri: Don't worry about me. I'm good.

Hoshi: Whatever!

A few hours later, the trio were walking through the festival.

Kusuri: I wish Tekko didn't stop at every tavern we came across. He should be enjoying the festival with us.

Hoshi: You know him, always hitting on women while drinking alcohol, even back in town.

Kirin: Hey, what's that?

Hoshi: What?

Kusuri: It's a sign. "Super Coaster. Just 7 Dorus."

Kirin: Why would a ride be that cheap?

Kusuri: Dunno. Wanna check it out?

Kirin: Sure do!

Hoshi: I don't know. It's in a pretty shady part of this festival.

Kirin and Kusuri were already walking towards the corner.

Hoshi: Are you even listening to me?!!

Kirin: Are you coming?

Hoshi let out a deep breath.

Hoshi: Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one with any brains.

Hoshi started walking.

Two men were on a roof. They were both wearing dark cloaks that revealed only their eyes and noses.

Man 1: They fell for it.

Man 2: Yeah. These guys took out Domu?

Man 1: Hmm, let me do it.

Man 2: I haven't seen you use that power in a while.

Man 1: It's not everyday we face someone who can take out one of our figureheads.
