Rakutsu narrowed his eyes at Rex and stayed silent for a few moments. ”Fine.” He let out a sigh before leaving his bed side. ”Look...Rex.” He stopped at the doorway and looked back. ”I know this isn’t what you thought would happen when you woke up that morning and the same goes for everyone in this city. Your a giant money now. That sucks. But you need to remember that your not the only person that got effect in such a way. Hell, some people are dead. So you need ask yourself how am I gonna get through this and beginning reforging your life. Just like we are need too.” Without waiting for a retort, Rakutsu left Rex to himself and whatever thoughts are in his mind.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>”You can emulate melee? I haven’t played that in years!” Looks like ultimate can wait another day. He’ll just have to be careful to not potentially end their friendship by playing as Fox Mccloud. He’ll have to stick to his other trusty main. Kirby. The absolute god in all smash video games.<br/><br/>”Too bad. I’m too curious about it now.” Whatever common sense was in Rakutsu was gone this point. Where did this behavior even come from? ”Just pretend their not here, bend over, and let me see that scar.” Why did he assume it’s on his ass? Was it even on there?! ”Wait....is it on your bad or front?”<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Rakutsu looked at Amrita with a look that clearly said he didn’t know who the Scarab was. Pure yet calm confusion. (https://c.tenor.com/aUeurMFvFN8AAAAC/chizuru-hishiro-confused.gif) ”I don’t know who that is.” He confused in monotone and without shame. Well....not that much.<br/><br/>”I’m sorry. I just don’t follow the hero scene or study the history as much as I should.” He explained while eating a chocolate cookie. Considering how much of world history has been integrated with superheroes and villain, studying it was a good idea. More than the required amount for class.<br/><br/>”I see...” He mused over the information Kaitlyn gave out, thankful for her knowledge. ”So the storm acted as the catalyst for your awakening. Or reawakening if we are being technical. How are you feeling? I’m not sure how much of a shock this could be, but I can have an idea.” Learning that you lived dozens of life’s couldn’t be the easiest thing to handle. Maybe after the first few time it got easier? That’s his theory, but he didn’t want to pry too much.<br/><br/>A glare was thrown Leslie’s way for a moment before settling on the other girls. Did she seriously think this was a game? He opened his mouth to tell her off, but the others beat him to the punch. Amy trying to leave added to this. He couldn’t blame her for feeling like overwhelmed.<br/><br/>In the span of a week or so, their entire life style was uprooted and flipped around. The city was now filled with a new way of meta humans that can compete with Freedom City. Anyone would be shaken by it. Same as he was during his training with Grandfather Shuji.<br/><br/>Still, he found himself unable to give any good words of encouragement. His social skills weren’t really that good to find anything good to say. Instead, he allowed the girls to comfort their own before walking over to offer Amy a cookie. Comfort food.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>”It’s better than anything I would have thought of.” Rakutsu walked inside with his backpack on his shoulder by a single strap and hoodie up. He didn’t want anyone to see him coming here. Secret identity and all. He reached for his gas mask before the pink haired girl’s voice stopped him. ”Costume appearance wasn’t much of a priority for me and I got it cheap pawn shop. Saw it in the window and just went with it.” The thing didn’t fall off like a bandana or scarf. Not easily.<br/><br/>”We really doing this?” He looked at the costumes with a reluctant look before taking them. After a few moments of consideration, he discarded two of them and put on the red scarf one. ”I feel like the horn is on the helmet for no real reason....” But it was his final choice.<br/><br/>After putting the costume away, he started suggested the girls practice movement and traversing by racing with him. His parkour allowing him to move the makeshift training course easily. However, he suggested to Scarab to use her telekinesis to move stuff around in their path. For more of a challenge.<br/><br/>”Ok. Line up. Time to enroll yourself in my dojo.” He stripped down to his underwear and got on a white martial arts gi in front of them. ”I don’t give a shit if you girls have superpowers now. You saw me beat the shit out of tentacle man without any, so I’m gonna show you how to fight. Or defend yourself at the very least.” He would put the girls through various drills his grandfather put him in as a child and demo stage the basics. This involved punching or kicking them to the ground a good few times. Pain was a great teacher though.
