Shinra: Dabi.

Shinra: Oi, Dabi can't you not hear me calling you? Oi!

Dabi: What do you want kid?

Shinra: Kid? I'm about the same age as you what are you talking about?

Dabi: Shut up. Didn't they ever teach you to respect your elders.

Shinra: Elders? If you were any where near as wise as an elder your own powers wouldn't backfire on you.

Dabi: Watch your mouth Shinra.

Shinra: Or what?

Dabi just stares daggers into Shinra, as he just smirks at him daring him to attack. Suddenly they hear a beeping noise. The two of them look at there phone and see they are being summoned. Dabi snaps his fingers and nine other holographic images of the Sprrigan 12 appear.

Wahl: What's this meeting for? Can't you see we're busy?

Ajeel: You always have something to say. Learn to be quite for once.

Invel: That's enough you two.

Albedo: Umm not that I'm complaining but where is August?

Invel: He's with his highness attending other matters.

Shalltear: what? Is he too good to come to these meetings now?

Larcade: Ara? Do I hear jealousy?

Shalltear: HA! Jealousy? Never.

Jacob: Noisy bunch.

Esdeath: Alright everyone shut up all of you. I'm sure we where summoned for a reason. Isn't that right Invel?

Invel: Thank you Esdeath, and yes I want to know if anyone has made any progress on finding the Ultimate power for his highness?

Ajeel: No. Nothing on my end.

Neinhart: Same with me. Just a bunch of ugly people everywhere I turn.

Shinra: Nothern Japan is big, but it's also empty over here.

Esdeath: Wow I'm surprised you two hot heads can get along.

Shinra: huh?

Dabi: Don't indulge her Shinra.

Esdeath smiles.

Invel: Has anyone else also come up empty?

The other members of The Sprrigan 12 shake there heads.

Wahl: You would think trying to find the ultimate power would be a breezy. But even with my bots on surveillance 24/7 it's impossible.

Invel: I had a feeling this would happen. Anyways good job everyone keep on doing your best. For his majesty.

Shinra: Wait wait.

Shinra says before anyone else can say anything.

Shinra: That's it?

Ajeel: What do you mean That's it? Of course that's it. We got important things to do you know kid.

Shinra: Stop calling me a kid first of all. Second, aren't we going to talk about the elephant in the room?

Dabi: Shinra drop it. That doesn't matter now.

Shinra: What? Of course it matters. He was right under our noses and we didn't do anything.

Dabi: Shinra!

He raises his voice annoyed by Shinra. The other members look towards both Shinra and Dabi. Annoyed by everything Dabi let's out an annoyed sigh and places his head on the table.
