Tachibana Palace

"... 7 to 10?"

Yuno gets in the car as they are driven back to the hotel. Kai is still asking Tachibana tons of questions and they seem to understand one another which is great and all, but Yuno is still not sure messing around where she doesn't belong is okay.

She looks at Kai and shakes her head. Working with Tachibana means signing up to challenge more than just the government officials, but also the members of society who don't believe in this insane ideal Tachibana has.

After dropping Kai off Tachibana drives to the Palace. The drive is slow and feels like it will never end.

She walks into his office and there's a second door leading to a second office.

"I don't usually want anyone in here because it's for exclusive members only." He brags and she rolls her eyes. The more he gets comfortable around her the more he annoys her.

She takes a seat and he pulls down the board with a list of government officials and arrows pointing to each one with little small facts here and there, "That looks like a crime board."

"Technically we're dealing with criminals, so you're not wrong."

Tachibana points to each individual explaining who they are and what they do, "Of course, all that information is irrelevant as what really matters is that they be forced to step down. The real issue though is to figure out who are the right people for the job to fill their positions."

Tachibana sits down and Yuno looks the board over, "Wait, so you have all this dirty laundry on all of them, what's stopping you from exposing them?"

"It's a matter of time Miss Lin, having good cards doesn't mean you should play them all at once. I'm waiting for the right time. If I just expose them now the issue will be swept under the rug and I might turn up messing, or worse. Broke."

Yuno's eyes widen, "Being broke is your biggest fear?"

Ken turns to Yuno, "You clearly haven't spent a day in my shoes."

Yuno rolls her eyes, "We both know I wouldn't fit even if I was big foot." She stares at his shoes, "You seriously humble big foot where ever he is."

"You're just short."

Ackerman walks into the room laughing taking a seat next to Yuno smiling at Bobo. "Welcome to the club Miss Lin, so I'm here to clarify what he's been rambling on and on about." Ackerman points to the board moving his finger around.

"See those people on that board; Iwaizumi Karasu, Draco Hiryu, Enji Fume and Ai Kasai. They are the voices behind the presidents' ear, and the ones making decisions behind the scenes. Our goal is to remove them from power, not expose their dirty laundry."

Ackerman stands up and shows her a copy of the new Laws they want to put up country wide, "Supers will be bunched up into those three prefectures and probably left for dead or worse. Every time we think we've gone a step ahead of them they are 2 steps ahead of us.

"I had a theory that they have a Super on their side and sure enough I'm right, Aiko Yamato, a 21 year old female who has a prediction ability. You're our trump card in this because you both go to the same medical school."

Yuno sees from the look in his eyes that he won't say any more it's pretty obvious they want her to play spy. "Won't she see me coming?"

Ken is the one to reply to her question, "That's the point Lin, while they focus on you we'll have an opening to take out Aiko Yamato first. Last resort we kill them all."

She can't tell if they are joking or not she just covers Tori's ears and he screams.

Ackerman continues his explanation, "Your role in all this is to keep her focussed on you. Keep her guessing what you're up to all the while we'll be setting our traps."
