Meeting Mr. Senju

When we got back to the organizations headquarters, we received our next jobs while others who weren't needed at the time rested up. I was told to patrol the city or the organization. "Why do I need to patrol the city? There aren't any phantom attacking the city is there!?" I ask Sarada.

"No but there is more things to worry about than phantoms. We also have to look out for sinners. They can reside here within the organization so we must always keep an eye out for them." Sarada answers.

"OK but how do I know if they are sinners or not?"

"You will know because their crest will grow a bright glow of red. Look for the sign and you will see whether they are sinners or not. This could also give you the opportunity to get acquainted with some of the people here." Sarada says. I nod my head and talk again.

"Alright, you can count on me." I say while saluting.

"Good. Report to me if anything goes wrong." I nod my hod at her and head toward the city doors when I suddenly spot Angelica.

"What's up." I say to her. She turns around and waves.

"Hey Uzaki. Are you off to the city too?" I nod my head.

"Yeah. I got sent here to patrol the area." All of a sudden, Angelica's eyes light up.

"Really!? Awesome! This is the perfect opportunity!" I look at her confused.

"What are you talking about?" Angelica looks back up at me.

"Can I come patrolling with you? There is something I need to check." I am still confused as to why she got so excited but nonetheless, I nod my head. "Thanks!" Angelica says. She then opens the door. "Let's go Uzaki." We both walk into the city. It is just a busy as before. Everyone travelling from one place to another, walking in and out of shops, and even going into houses and apartments. Angelica taps on my shoulder and smiles at me. "So, where to first?" She asks. I rub my head.

"I don't really know. I haven't truly been around this place before. I only know a small bit." I say. Angelica starts to think.

"Hmm... how about we just walk around for a bit and see what interests us?" Angelica says.

"Sounds good." And so, we just walk around almost as though we were waiting for something to happen. Angelica points out her favorite spots and explains about them.

"That's the coolest statue here. It's known as god's statue. And this is my favorite restaurant. I always get the takoyaki from here. It's delicious. And this is Draco's workplace. He usually just slacks off though." Before I know it, I start to enjoy walking around with her. It made up for the uneventful happenings around us. We then stop by a park. Angelica walks up slowly then turns around to face me. "This is Front-havens park. I love coming here to see the flowers and to talk to the people here." She then walks around, smelling the flowers. After a while, she sits down on a park bench. "Let's rest here for a bit." Angelica says. I sit down next to her and we talk for a while. Five minutes after we sat down, we see a old man come walking up to us. He had white hair, a long, white beard, glasses, and a cane to help him walk. Angelica and I get up to help him. When we are able to get him seated, he thanks us. "How are you today Mr. Senju?" The old man slowly looks up at Angelica.

"Pretty good today dear. Thank you for asking."

"It's no problem at all." She gives him a bright smile. He then looks over at me.

"Who is this young man? A new recruit to the organization?" I walk up to Mr. Senju and speak.

"Yes I am. My name is Uzaki and I am the fourteenth member of the boundary protectors." Mr. Senju then nods his head.

"That is one big feat young man. The boundary protectors are one of the strongest groups within the organization." Mr. Senju says.

"What group are you stationed in may I ask?" I ask. Mr. Senju laughs.

"I am retired my boy. I am now just here waiting." Mr. Senju then stops laughing when he says that. Angelica then puts on a serious look and my curiosity starts to rise.

"What are you waiting for sir?" I ask. Angelica punches my arm.

"Uzaki! Don't ask that! It's too personal!"

"Ow! Why did you do that!?" I say. Mr. Senju sticks his cane between us. We both look at him.

"It is fine Angelica dear. You know of it so why can't he?" Mr. Senju says.

"Yes. I'm sorry Mr. Senju." Angelica says while bowing her head. I get ready for his story. Mr. Senju puts on a serious face and starts to talk.

"It all started back when I was alive."
