Kousuke's pov

A week went by and I'm starting fit in with this new life. At least a little.

Although it looks normal, everybody knows it's kill or be killed here in Tokyo Kingdom.

That's why if I wanted to survive, I need to learn how to fight whether I like it or not.

Right now, I'm inside a random shipment warehouse. Ever since I made that "deal" with Kage, I went with the whole superhero motto of testing my powers out.

Kage: Remind me again why are we in a place like this?

Kousuke: Duh, obviously you're going to teach me how to use my new powers.

Kage: Why here though?

Kousuke: Well, this place looks big enough to test out what I can do.

Kage: Hmph, are you underestimating the power you have? There's no shame in unleashing out there as well.

Kousuke: And making an image to the public, making every criminal and demon out there wanting to kill us? I don't think so.

Kage: Ugh, I can't believe you're such a weak soul.

Kousuke: Whatever you say. So Kage, where do we start?

Kage: Very well. Let us begin with something simple. Such as creating your arsenal.

Kousuke: You mean making my weapons? Yeah, that could work.

Kage: Now in order to do so, you must give in to your negative emotions.

Kousuke: What?

Kage: Since you now have demonic blood coursing through your veins, your power relies on those kinds of feelings. It would've been more easier and faster if you go out and find some beings to kill, but since you decided to go with a coward's way, you're going to have to rely on your memories and thoughts.

Kousuke: Wow, that actually sounds like a threat. But I'll give it a try.

I start off slowly by staring at my right hand...

Kage: Now, focus on thinking negatively. Remind yourself of the greed and deceitfulness of humans, or memories of someone important being taken away from you.

As Kage pointed me in his direction I began to remember horrible memories.

How my parents and Kyousuke died, the corrupted soldiers that kidnapped me that day, and how I picture of that bitch's disgusting face...

Kousuke: *inhales and exhales angrily*

Kage: That's it Kousuke, keep going! Fill yourself with hatred, try to unleash your rage, and embrace the darkness within!

Kousuke: *grunt* Whroaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!

The moment I kept myself remembering all that stuff I never want to remember, was when I started to get angry. So angry, to the point where I could lose myself.
