"But...but...I am totally fine! See, look at me!" Tora said while he moved his body around in front of Kali and showed her, as well as Rindo. However....both of them were already aware of the abnormalness that was Tora's body.

"Tora, your body is just abnormally high spec. Normal people cant do that, so if you go around and do that in front of other people, you will be exposed quickly. So please....Kali, can you make sure that, unless he is in a Trigger Body at least, he does not go jumping off of balconies or punching vending machines to make them work and exposing the fact his normal body is Trion infused?"

Indeed, this was went over repeatedly thanks to Mimik and Tora himself that Tora possessed an extremely abnormal body.

"Now, how about we enter the base? I think its time we get started".

Tora was lucky, and unlucky with his abnormal body. It will be a great advantage, but also may hinder him in hiding his origins. There were so many things that suddenly popped up in Kaliā€™s head, but it was time to take care of something else.

ā€œSure, sure, Iā€™ll tryā€¦though no promises with how hot-headed he seems to be.ā€

She replied, slowly walking inside.


OOC - Sorry for replying so late, thought I posted ^^

"Hot headed?"

Tora looked at Kali questioningly as he entered the main base. Of course, as C-Ranks, first they had to go to the intro meeting. Rindo mainly drove Tora since he was sure that he would be late. And get lost. Tora, possibly due to his lack of experience, had no sense of direction. As for hiding his abilities...he turned on his Trigger and entered his trigger form.

"If I use my Trion body, there is no issue right?"

"Well, I suppose that is true. Besides, as C-Ranks you are usually asked to do so since you would be unfamiliar faces and it has the C-Rank Uniform...well, yours is slightly different".

As mentioned, Tora's Uniform was black, and not white. This was authorized ahead of time, partially because he had white hair. Actually, at first it was white and Kali and hte others had seen it...well, Tamakoma-1 said that it was definently better to go with the black look over the white uniform.

It was an eyesore, basically. And it looked ridiculous.

And so, Tora began to approach the crowd of other C-Rank agents as the general introduction began.

(Its kay. I was sick and had some tests. Its approaching the end of the semester after all, so might be a bit busy. Hope to not have a delay this long though)

Now that she thought about it, reckless was a word more suitable for him.

ā€œOn second thought reckless, you act before thinking.ā€

As they went further, and as more C - rank agents came to be seen by her, the more tired she became of too many people in her sight.

She began memorizing everyone and everything that she caught glimpse of, she stared longer than five seconds at anything that felt off.

As she glanced from one to anotherā€¦there were few notable ones from C ā€“ rank, ones that possibly could be a tough opponents later and invaluable teammates.

She also found Rai nearby, and someone elseā€¦someone that caught her attention for far longer than any other. Person she couldnā€™t help but stare at, was surely not a C ā€“ rank, with calm demeanor. Something told her that person fought many times, maybe similar to Tora or maybe not.

It took her a moment to realize that now she was being watched, though she could not see who it was exactly..feeling of being observed was still there.

It was time to stop memorizing and staring at others, too much attention is not what she wants, and she still wonderedā€¦
What kind of introduction it would be? ā€“ boring one, or will it be something elseā€¦

(Studying can be sometimes time consuming, if not always. Anyway, I think I may put in another NPC/PC character, though not sure about it yet, he/she may appear in future ā€“ but for the time being a small something that tells almost nothing ^^

(Finals and final papers suck. My activity should hopefully increase during or after May though... :3)

As for who ended up being the ones to do the introduction, it was a squad that was quite well known for being the face of Border, Arashiyama Squad. It was the fifth A-Ranked team, they were also well known and had a variety of encounters with the press. They were well known and well liked.

"Welcome one, welcome all! To the greatest show on...ow!"

And when Ken tried to do a comical routine, Kitora "accidentally" stepped on his foot as the squad leader took over.

"Thank you for coming today..."

After that, they gave introductions, and also explained a bit more about Border, and also about the Points system and Ranks. After that, they Attackers and Shooters would go towards one direction and the snipers another, since sniper training was different from Attackers and Shooters. They were taken to a large room with several smaller "chambers" in the middle.

"These simulation rooms are specifically designed to show and test your abilities. Now the first up..."

With those words, Tora began to step forward with excitement and anticipation and...

"...Kali White!"

Ended up tripping over himself. It seemed like he really wanted to go first, but since he knew Kali he decided to take a back seat and let her go first instead.

After all that walking and introduction, Kali really hoped to be the last one for testing abilities, butā€¦

"...Kali White!" was what she heard, and noticed Tora suddenly freezing, and almost tripping ā€“ she should remind him toā€¦avoid overdoing it.

ā€œOh, so Iā€™m firstā€¦great.ā€

ā€œYou know that end result could be the same anyway, so why bother with being unhappy about such small detail?ā€ Rai who tried his best to hide presence from her and the others untill now, spoke.

ā€œI childishly want to be last, cause Iā€™m first, simple as that.ā€ She replied, and yawned.

Sleepiness makes her less active, and less logicalā€¦less mature...less something. - is what she thought.

ā€œSo what is this test about? Is it about measuring Trion or something else?ā€

ā€œSimple fight with a weakened Bamwster.ā€

ā€œOh, kay, fun!ā€ Thinking it was fun, and it was not at the same time is normal for her ā€“ why she though like that is simple. She enjoys learning and struggling, but todayā€¦today neither of the two requirements were present , yet that may hopefully change with a bit of a twist of hers.

Today her Trion levels werenā€™t as bad as yesterday, well one would say it is even an opposite of what once was. First of all she decided to stretch a little in front of everyone, something that could surprise all or some, stretching that was neither short or too long.

Once finished she smiled brightly - Rai knew what that meant. She still wore the same thing from yesterday ā€“ Black trench coat, adorned with white pinstripes, black pants, and comfy sports shoesā€¦also black.

ā€œOne may thought she has a thing for black colorā€¦ā€ One of many trainees muttered, loudly enough to make some chuckle, while others disregarded it.

Her eyes flashed with a bit of excitement, while her mouth still slightly open after a smile - slowly taking air into lungs she was, waiting for Bamwster that quite quickly appeared.

Kali only had a scorpion in main hand- trigger that she liked to some degree, but today it was not meant for her style. Her upper body slightly leaned towards ground, her legs tense. ā€“ It was this moment when she made up her mind, and dashed with increadible speed towards Bamwster, for some that were watchingā€¦it could seem like sheā€™s a ghost, appearing only to disappear and to be found in another place.

Today winning against that Bamwster would be boring, sheā€™s more curious about all the others that are gathered hereā€¦

Hence one simple, yet crazy idea came to her mind. Once close enough she aimed for Bamwster armor, armor that she remembered as tough to break through, her scorpion strong and small, her speed strengthening what was about to comeā€¦

She ended up with broken scorpion once againā€¦laughing.

Examiner was confused, not without a good reason - at the last second Kali purposely made scorpion longer. Person with a keen eye, an observant one could have noticed what she did. Most likely examiner noticed what she did and it was a reason to why heā€™s confused, but what about the others?

ā€œWell, thatā€™sā€¦alright, Tora!ā€

Immediately after hearing these words Kali went towards Tora, looking at him, but secretly observing others ā€“ most of them were baffled by what happened, but some caught onto her little game. The ones that caught her, will be the oneā€™s worth being careful around the most.

ā€œTora, I know youā€™re excited but try to limit yourselfā€ She smiled.

It has been a year or two since his arrival back on Earth. For 6+ years, he had been living in Kion, due to getting stranded there, out of curiosity. Rising through the ranks, racking up achievements and allowed to go on away missions at his own leisure, his position in the military is quite high. But he decided to go back to Earth, a year later, despite all of that, though he does plan to visit Kion once in a while. Joining the Border Defense Agency, or Border for short, shortly after his arrival, he has since become a B-Rank agent, though if one were to ask those who fought him in the Rank Wars, they would answer that he was more of an A-Rank at that point. Currently, he resides in Tamakoma and on a defense duty at the moment.

SLASH!
The sound made from the swing of his Kogetsu, as it went through a Bamster like butter with a hot knife. "This is Kurenai. I've just finished up over here." he said as he puts the sword back into the scabbard on his left side. That was the last of the remaining Neighbors that were present from the recent Gate incursion. And with that, his defense duty was finally over. He had been stationed since the night, and while he's not particularly tired, it wasn't friendly for his brain or his boredom. "This is Kurenai, I've finished the last remaining stragglers. I'm going to HQ to report before heading back to Tamakoma." he said on the radio. "Thanks for the hard work~! Your breakfast is already waiting for you in the dining room." Usami replied, implying that she already had his food ready prior to him finishing the duty.

He then walked to HQ for a few minutes. After arriving & finished reporting back, he then pulled out his phone & checked the time. It was the enlistment day for new C-Rank trainees. "Ah, it's that time of the year, huh... It sure does go by pretty fast..." he said as he went to the training area, where C-Ranks are usually assembled if they were aiming to be an Attacker / Gunner / Shooter. As he entered the area, he saw a spectacle that was weird. A trainee trying to cut through the training Bamster's armor with just a Scorpion... "That's quite the guts you got..." he mumbled. Meanwhile, Cyone, his "partner", who's disguised herself as an earbud, whispered him. "I detected another like me here... But I don't know which one..." she whispered. "Keep a lookout. Tell me if you found them." he replied, in a small voice as he looked around. He then saw Jin, who was observing, and went to him. "Yo, Jin. Who's the newbie?" he asked him.

(Sorry it took so long, May was hell and it was taking me some time to get back into it)

Tora watched as Kali went first, and worked her own abilities on the simulated Trion Soldier. He sort of felt like there was something he should say, but he didnā€™t know what. To be honest, he was still pretty new to....well, everything.

Luckily for him, 90% of the new C-Ranks also were new to everything in the base so he blended right in.

So after Kali went, he went to go up again and he was pushed out of the way by another, older and taller boy who took his turn. Luckily there was a second room, or so he thought, but then the same thing happened once again.

ā€œWell, that was unfortunateā€.

Tora was totally unaware of this, but he was getting bullied. It was probably painfully obvious to everyone else, but he lacked any experience in real life stuff still. He was still quite new to all this and so didnā€™t understand he was getting bullied.

Funny enough though, it was the people bullying that was irritated as a result as Tora was not producing the reaction they wanted. Meanwhile, Jin looked down at all this while he looked at his fellow Border Agent.

ā€œTwo actually. Speaking of which, I might need to interfere. It looks like some others are messing with my kouhai (means junior...I think...no exact translation I think hence why I used the word itself). I canā€™t very well have thatā€.

Meanwhile, Tora decided to stay near a room and quickly hop in the moment it was available. The moment the door open, he stepped in. But oddly enough, one second before he did, another older and larger boy slipped on a wet floor, which everyone could have sworn was dry before.

Tora was unaware, but Mimik was not. And after all that, Tora decided to use his new Trigger, the recently developed Cyclones, to tear apart the Trion Soldier. The moment the timer started, he pushed off the ground and cut right through the core.

It was an almost instantaneous defeat for it. A little less then a second. But thatā€™s what happens when you are forced to do combat training for years locked inside an inhuman facility.

Kali sighed at the sight of instant defeat of Trion soldier, for it showed how hard it will be for Tora to not overdo simple things.

Tora just before entering had an interesting encounter with bullies, most likely his first one, considering how there was no reaction that bullies wanted or at least expected. ā€“ Kali saw it as rather funny situation, that fortunately did not escalate.

ā€œI spy with my little eyeā€¦ā€ She began, while smiling.

ā€œTrouble and Jin, what a nice combination.ā€

(Yes, you're correct. Kouhai translates to junior.)

"Two, eh? Looks like you got found some interesting juniors... Well, I'll come with you, I suppose. I'm also going back to Tamakoma after this." he replied to Jin. While it somewhat escaped him that the "rookie" that Jin mentioned was being bullied, it didn't escape Cyone's attention. "Jin is going to help that recruit. It seems like that recruit is experiencing something that people in this world calls 'bullying'." she said. As he walked closer, he noticed the one getting bullied had a very... "Unique" appearance, so to speak. He sighed, unable to comprehend these bullies' mindset. If they were in the academy that he attended, they would've been sent straight to the academy court & either be sentenced to isolation, or in more extreme cases, dropped out & blacklisted. "Wow, I guess the world has completely went coocoo since I left 8 years ago..." he said as he approached the source of the ruckuss.

"So... You're Jin's junior, huh... I can see why these noobs wanted to bully you." he said to the small, white-haired rookie. He then looked even closer, and noticed that he's very small. "Wow, I guess this adds more reasons to why they would bully you." he continued. As he approached him, Cyone detected something. "I'm getting readings from this boy. Seem's like he's our guy." she said to him via the earpiece. "Okay, noted." he replied shortly, as he went by Tora's ear. "I guess you're the one that has been to the other side, aside from me, am I right? Don't worry, I'm not going to say anything out loud about it. Since my eldest niece would probably be around your age by now, why would I?" he whispered into his ear, and later pulled away.

Leaning on a wall Kali observed, as surprisingly with Jin came someone else. His companion talked a bit, then leaned towards Tora and seemed to have whispered something into Toraā€™s ear. ā€“ whatever was said, it had to be intriguing.

ā€œArenā€™t you bit fishy with that secrecyā€¦ā€ She couldnā€™t help but chuckle, as she muttered.

She continued to be attentive, and wondered whether Tora will be on guard, worried, caught of guard or all of these will occur, one after another.

Kali was sure of one thing, Tora may, or will surely be confused about the bullying part, but then again she may be wrongā€¦

Question that couldnā€™t be put away, is who the Fishy was, and why would he take interest in Tora? ā€“ second could be easily answered, but learning it from him would be better than connecting little dots that each of them leaves on purposeā€¦or by chance.

(Sorry for the delay, should be more active now for real this time)

As Tora walked out, it seemed that everyone was in shock from what he did, or at least most of them. Mimik meanwhile was logging all this reaction to record and enjoy the moment, though he did not let anyone on about that. However, among all the activity, something happened that was outside of Tora's expectations...some totally random stranger began to approach him. He didn't know who this person was. He didn't look like another C-Rank, and Tora had not seen him before, so he had no idea. Was it possible he went too far and accidentally broke the simulator? He wouldn't have to pay for it right? Was he going to be in trouble?

However, instead the man came and said something to him that terrified him even more. He knew. Of course, Tora totally misinterpretted the entire situation, but surprisingly the one to overreact was Mimik.

The moment he said those words, Mimik initiated a full on cyber hack to learn everything he could about the man in front of them, including the nearby Trion Systems. Normally, this level of attack mgiht be difficult for an ATS (Autonomous Trion Soldier) to do undetected, but as Mimik was designed with Colsaria Trion Tech, he could do it without detected quite well, especially when no one knew he was there.

That said, before anything did happen, the instructors recovered from the shock and decided to continue with the training programs. ANd of course, next would be the mock battles between C-Ranks. Tora quickly followed without answering Shugo, since he really didn't know how to in the first place.

Cyone detected a sudden surge from the boy, or exactly, what seems to be an ATS that was the boy's partner. She then noticed that the partner was doing something, but what was it doing was unknown to her. "I'm detecting a surge from the boy's partner. He/she's doing something, but I can't figure out what it is." she whispered to Shugo. "I see... Just keep your guard up."he replied. He then patted the boy on his shoulder. "I'll tell you who I am once you're back at Tamakoma, since it's better than trying to ask someone else, right?" he said to the boy.

He then noticed that the C-Ranks were about to start mock battles between fellow trainees. Before he could say anything further, the boy left & went to follow the instructors for the next training program. "Jin, you should tell the boy to calm down. Seems like he'd listen more to you than me." he said, chuckling slightly. "Truly, quite the junior that you picked up here, Jin... And that other one wasn't too shabby either... She's got guts..."he continued, chuckling ever so slightly. He was amused at the response that he got from the boy and his partner, after he thought about it. "Kids these days... They show some interesting reactions when you say something that startled them regardless of your intentions..." he said, smirking as he followed them from behind at a distance.

An interesting encounter quickly ended, for there was another part of the training ā€“ so called mock battle. Kali followed Tora and the rest of trainees, wondering who will be first this timeā€¦for the same person being first is the least possible thing from her point of view.

Most of all, she wondered how will the mock up battle look exactly, and rulesā€¦what kind of rules there will be.

Rai, who she had now forgotten about continued to observe, with a bit of anger held inside. He was leaning against a wall, arms crossed, and mouth shut, while eyes vigilant. ā€“ waiting for further well known to him trainee training.

(so I lost the post which was kind of depressing, and my computer is bugged out so I only have my phone to type. I am seriously sorry if I miss a reaction to anything but I canā€™t really scroll well when typing a post)

(And I got called away before I can finish # RealLife)

After all that happened, Tora still did not quite know what to do about the man he just meant, and went over to Kali for a bit.

ā€œDo you know who he is? Jin said I should avoid strangers I donā€™t know outside the base, but what about inside?ā€

Incidentally part of Jinā€™s reasoning for that was because if thugs went and attacked Tora, Tora might instinctively counter attack and do serious harm. He was still inexperienced with people.

And so as they entered the next phase, he took the first step to have the first sparring match with a C-Rank and...

ā€œKali White! You are up again! Your opponent will be that older boy over there!ā€

ā€œ...do I have natural bad luck?ā€

When Tora asked if she knew anything about the man, she simply smiled.

ā€œNot really, for all I know is intuition and a lot of assumptions based on his behaviorā€¦but if you tell me something he said, the more Iā€™ll be able to tell you.ā€

As Tora walked away to be first one, she heard that the first sparring match is her and the old boy.

ā€œReally, me again?ā€ She muttered, rather annoyed.

As Kali slowly entered sparring area, scanning and analyzing what the old boy does was the only important thing.
Old boy was smiling, or rather grinning as if he had already been superior to her. Few seconds later she understood why ā€“ he had a gunner trigger.

There he stood, with hound all around, ready to shoot at herā€¦still grinning he was.

ā€œWell, you want to give me a chance, butā€¦I dislike giving up.ā€ Kali rushed towards him, trying to move erratically would be useless here. - All she could do is predict what will be and base this on how much luck will be given to her.

Surely he expected her to dodge, and she did, slicing some hounds in a process, taking out the ones that later came from behind with a bit of difficulty, for she had to keep dodging the ones he sent from the front.

For a moment she could tell, that grin from his face disappeared, and there came a room for doubt, butā€¦

She made far, but not far enough to get him before one hound hit her in the leg, in turn making her immobile.

Lying now with slightly scratched arms, big hole just over her left side of waist, and the one thing that made her immobile ā€“ hole in a leg.

ā€œI give up, not much can be done at this point.ā€ She said out loud.

Old boy grinned once more, visibly satisfied with himself. Soon both left, so others would be able to spar.

(Ouch, I see, np :) )

Observing the rookies having their mock battles, Shugo was a tad shocked to see the girl that he got impressed by earlier lost to someone that, in his opinion, had no talent whatsoever. It was mediocre, at best, to him. The boy only had a speck of what could even be classified as a talent, and a little more experience compared to the girl, while the girl, in his eyes, had all the experience that could at least qualify her to be at least an average agent, but for some reason, lacks the muscle memory, in his eyes. He sighed, confused at the loss that she suffered against that boy.

"Cyone, what do you think? Could've she won the battle?" he asked her.

"According to my simulations, she should've been able to won, although with a 50:50 chance. Still, there was something off with her movements. I haven't figured it out yet. We should continue our observation for Jin's other junior." she said in a long explanation in his ear.

"I suppose. Let's see what that white chibi can do against his opponent." he replied.

While he was clearly disappointed, without much more info, he can't really say anything definitive about the girl, and decided to move on to watch Jin's other rookie's battle, the little one with white hair. It seemed like his turn will come soon, though he didn't exactly pay any attention to the order of people for the mock battles.

(Sorry again, took me longer then I planned. Meant to post several days ago if not sooner)

After Kali went, a few others went afterwards. Tora didnā€™t pay attention to them though, and thought about any advice he could give Kali.

He couldnā€™t think of any.

That was due to his lack of experience. He only knew him, and his capabilities. He did not know what others were capable of really. It was difficult to explain.

But when he stepped up, onto that battlefield simulator finally, he still couldnā€™t think of anything he could say.

ā€œAlright shrimp, time to eat dirt!ā€

And so his opponent decided to take advantage of that to attack. However, in one clean movement Tora brought his weapons around, sidestepped the attack with minimal movement, and slashed through the chest of the opponent defeating him instantly. And yet...

ā€œMimik, I still canā€™t think of any advice to give Kali. I think I might be no good at itā€.

ā€œ...it took you that long to figure it out?ā€

ā€œHey, I could learnā€.

ā€œTora, there are some things you donā€™t have talent in. So far, giving advice is one of themā€.

Tora pouted internally at that remark, trying to not let his emotions show...which he also had no talent in. However, most wrote it off as him pouting about how easy the fight was, and that he was some battle junkie.

Shugo laughed when he saw the chibi won against his opponent almost in an instant. He already knew that the boy was used to combat, but that took the cake & immediately gave him confirmation that he came from the Neighborhood, like him. Though, whether if it was under the same circumstances like him or completely different, like getting kidnapped by them, is still a mystery to him.

"Cyone, what's your take on the boy?" he asked her.

"This boy has definitely saw combat before, and from my analysis on his body's movements, he seemed to have quite the experience as well." she replied.

"I suppose your guess earlier about him & maybe his partner are right after all." Shugo said, rubbing his hair.

He then went down the stairs, going towards Jin's two juniors. The C-Ranks around the two weren't aware of who he was, so it certainly helped him from getting too much attention as he approach the two rookies.

"I guess I can see why Jin is interested in you two." he said to the both of them after he arrived.

"Well, if you're asking what do I know and how good I am... Try searching for some videos of my previous Solo Rank Wars battles. Search with the keywords either Kurenai or Shugo, if you can't find them. Though, I wouldn't be surprised if it would be hard to find them. I rarely come here to participate in one, after all." he continued.

As she listened to Jinā€™s friend, she couldnā€™t help but yawn, and ask...

ā€œWait, arenā€™t you the one who is running around the ruins at the midnight time?ā€ She wondered if that Shuga, she could now check in solo rank wars was the one person that constantly kept running at that timeā€¦

She also poked Tora, for again his restraint was poor at the time of training ā€“ from her point of viewā€¦anyone can see heā€™s not an ordinary person from this world.

ā€œTora, you do realize that if you continue surpassing what a basic type of person can do here, everyone will have at least a vague idea of who you really are, right?ā€ She asked, then started staring at Shugo in silence, as if trying to read an open bookā€¦or maybe just waiting for an answer to her previous question.

Sadly before anything could be answered, someone grabbed Kali by a shoulder, it was Rai and he seemed rather angry.
ā€œI told youā€¦to stop fooling around, like a child.ā€ She purposely limited herself for fun and partly thanks to negative thoughts, so he couldnā€™t be angrierā€¦that she neglected what he taught her.

Kali wanted to read a bit more of Shugo, but now she had to take care of Rai who awaited her answer, and sheā€¦suddenly turned towards him and jumped at him with intention of hugging.

ā€œHugs!ā€ She yelled childishly, as Rai tripped and both ended up lying on the ground. Kali sat on him with a bright smile.
ā€œI win! Also you do now that again you are forgetting about being on guardā€¦ā€ She grinned, and he realized her intention.

ā€œI donā€™t get you, you know? Anyway would you finally get off of me?ā€ He smiled, wondering how to find a solution to her problem.

Within seconds she got off of him, and went back to staring at Shugo.

ā€œStareā€¦.ā€ She even said, as she stared.

ā€œDonā€™t mind it, itā€™s her childish momentā€¦you could say she restrained herself for too long.ā€ Said Rai, after getting up.

Shugo chuckled seeing how curious Kali was at him, even to the point of staring at him. He was very amused by her actions, especially on how she basically pounced her friend. He then approached her while was staring at him so furiously.

"Running around the ruins? Well, you're only half correct. I was doing my job, you know." he said to her as he ruffled her hair.

"That's just adorable, you know? Reminds me of my sister, I suppose." he continued, chuckling ever so slightly at her while continuing to ruffle her hair.

"I don't mind it, Rai. She's pretty adorable like this, you know? Reminds me of my little sister." he replied to Rai, who was apologizing to him.

While he said little sister, he didn't specify which one, since it could either mean his real little sister, or the one from his adopted family. He didn't mention it to anyone else but Jin, Usami, Tamakoma-1, Yotaro and Director Rindo. Well, that meant almost everyone at Tamakoma knew which one he meant, but not the ones that he hadn't met during his initial induction into Border a couple years prior.

"Eh? Really? But wasn't that guy like, the weakest of the weak or something? And I thought that was pretty normal...I even held back".

At this, Mimik seemed to have no witty comment about those words, and Tora was not sure what to say as the others came around and began talking. Maybe if he was normal he would have, but...he lacked good experience in normal conversations.

"...MImik, I have no idea what is going on. Is this what they call 'going through one's head'?"

"The expression is 'Over one's head', Tora...also, the introduction for C-Ranks is still not done".

Indeed, once all the mock battles were over the group was then instructed to pay attention to the instructors as they began to go over a variety of others details and facts. For one thing, they were going over Triggers. Initially, they started going over the basics, such as the Sniper Triggers Egret, Lightning, and Ibis, and the differences between them. Notably, some might wonder what an Ibis would be like if Tora fired one.

Then they went over the standard and well known Shooter Triggers, which were Asteroid, Meteora, Viper, and Hound. And then finally, they brought up the Attacker Triggers, starting with the three well known ones called Kogetsu, Raygurst, and Scorpion, as well as the new one called Cyclone that Tora used. However, there were others as well, including some that were quite new.

Chameleon, which could turn someone invisible. Hornet, which was a remote controlled attack drone made of Trion. Sentry Turret, which could be deployed and would provide defense over an area. Scanner Vision, which would allow someone to see Trion energy such as a Trion Body and anything created with Trion even through solid objects. There was also Shield of course, that could be used to provide protection and defense. And Wolf, a new one that created a Wolf like being made of Trion that could be ordered and commanded to do various tasks.

It seemed like R&D had been very active lately in terms of reaching and developing new Triggers to use.

"Now, we have a few other areas in which you can practice in. For instance, the Neighbor Attack Simulator which will allow you to fight in a simulated envirornment against actual Neighbors. Marmods, Bamsters, and others that have been spotted will all be available to you. Please note that the difficulty of these simulations will be higher, but by completing them you will be able to gather more points and rank up faster. Just note that failing will also make you lose points. As C-Ranks, you still only have Training triggers, but in this simulation it will let you simulate three other Triggers in your Holders to test out as well. So this is something that you should keep in mind. Additionally, this also allows for large scale team battles".

Tora seemed immediately captivated by this, his eyes full of energy and excitement.

"We should totally do this next!"
