It was a bright and early morning for the now 20 year old Daisuke Jigoku! He got up bright and early in an attempt to get to the mailbox before any mail was able to get there. He brushed his teeth before running out of his room. He smiled and leaped down the steps with a loud slam of the door before screaming out loud as he leaped over all the stairs.
Daisuke: "GOOOOOOD MORNING MR. MAILMAN!!"
He screamed out as he landed perfectly by the mailbox, seeing the mailman approaching. The mailman smiled at him and chuckled as he tilted his hat. He stepped away from the mailbox before approaching Daisuke with a smile on his face.
Mailman: "Well, Daisuke, you're up early! Are you still hoping that you'll get that letter from your parents?"
Daisuke: "What can I say? I'm a bit lost and in need of their advice and assistance. If this is the only way for me to get it, then that's fine by me."
Mailman: "Well, I got some mail here for ya, as you might've guessed. I'll let you get to your room before you read it. Just, try to keep calm and not get your hopes up, Daisuke?"
Daisuke, chuckling: "Alright, I'll try."
Daisuke was handed the mail before he ran up the stairs quickly. He was given four different envelopes and one package. He threw himself onto the couch before looking at the many envelopes, opting to open the red letter. He looked at the contents before sighing and shaking his head.
Daisuke: Nothing important...just a letter from my friend asking about me...
He swiftly tore open the white envelope and smiled as he saw that it was something he was waiting for, but not important. He read through it before smiling. It was a ticket for a plane ride to go off to a land known for powerful fighters. He was hoping that one of the next two was a letter from his parents. He sighed and opened up the black letter before sitting up straight. His eyes went wide as he read the letter.
'My dearest Daisuke, hello. This is your mother writing to you with your father. We are currently in the great land of Gnoria, but the issue here is that there are multiple people here who aren't the friendliest! I know we said we would await your arrival and buy you a ticket, but there is no guarantee that we will even last that long here. By the time this letter reaches you, we might be missing or dead, dear. So, enclosed in the package I'm sending this letter with is something you've always wanted. It is some of your father's power tablets. The ones that give you powers of different properties. I hope you only use them to defend yourself. Do not come here, Daisuke. For the love of your parents, don't come to Gnoria. I love you, goodbye.
Love, mom.
The moment he read the letter, he began tearing up and crumbled it up before opening the package. He saw a case fall out with the sound of pills inside. He teared up as he shook it more...nothing but the sound of pills. He began crying as he tore open the final envelope. It was a headband that he had bought from a friend. A blue headband with a red skull emblazoned on it. He stood up tall and wiped his tears before gritting his teeth.
Daisuke: "Mom... dad... I won't let you die out there. I swear on my life, I will save you. We will come home together!"
He muttered to himself before running to his room to pack his bags. He grit his teeth and held back all his tears as he did before grabbing his things, getting the ticket, and running out of the house. He rushed as fast as he could to make it to the airport. Stopping when he made it, his face was running with tears. He sighed and sank down to the floor outside of the airport as he sighed. He closed his eyes before shaking his head and wiping his tears.
Daisuke: "No, if mom and dad were here right now, they would not stand for this! I am going to go and save them because it is what they would do for me!"
