-While on the way to Canada-
The RV that they had procured was simple in design and wasn't anything spectacular, but it got the job done and it was comfortable. Currently it was daytime and Shizu was driving with Sora still sleeping and River wide awake and checking something on her cellphone,
"Hey River" Shizu said
"Yes?" She replied
"Besides being my guide, why are you tagging along with me? I know there is an ulterior motive besides this"
"Well, it is usually a requirement for a ranked member to have at least 1 courier watching them so that when they are defeated it is confirmed, but there are a few exceptions, for example there is a man who can delete a person's memory just by encountering him, another who is living in deep, underground disparity of the aftermath of war, and also these two beings who are in another dimension"
"Wait what"
"So for those people you need a certain item from them to even pass their rank"
"Wait how did you even get those people involved or even recorded if one deletes memories and the others are either living in hell itself or another dimension?!"
"There are several ways, one would be our advanced information system and second would be that the memory eraser left his calling card"
"So how exactly did they enter?"
"Not all of the ranked individuals got through the tournament process, very few were placed in their respected area's based on observations of their power and theoretical battle results"
"Doesn't that seem unfair?"
"Oh, so you want to fight a person that can bend space and time and another who can null all supernatural forces and control nothingness?"
"Fair point...How exactly did these people join in the first place?"
"It was of their own accord, heck if I know what they were thinking"
"By chance can you assist me in battle?
"Depending on the situation"
"Good to know"
This was the entire trip in a nutshell: Talk, pitstop, random assist missions, and random bandit attacks...Yeah that went well.
-Several days later-
It was about nighttime when they had reached their destination...
"We there yet?" Sora questioned as he was in the front seat with Shizu
"Well" Shizu started "It's snowy, there are pine tree's everywhere, and I think that is the Canadian flag right over there, yeah I'm sure we're there...wait are we?"
"Yup, we're definitely here" River responded as the RV stopped at a café
"I think we should take a quick break before we go looking for ranked 100" As they all got out and entered the café there weren't that many people, but what was apparent was that these people didn't seem like your average Canadians as most of them had bladed rifles of sorts while others had some assorted weaponry that seemed foreign. What made the atmosphere heavier was that the minute they entered everyone, like any other time someone new enters, they were all staring at the 3 of them. Though it didn't take long for every to go back to what they were doing, it still was tense. When Shizu and River sat down and ordered something hot, Sora got a bone, though normally he would be slightly peeved at that...
"Maple syrup flavored bone? I'm not complaining" Funny enough, although the wolf talking was loud and clear no one gave an eye about it which normally they would. While Shizu and River were drinking their coffee and eating misc. food, they decided to chat once more.
"Not so happy-go-lucky, isn't it?" Shizu questioned as he took a bite out of his food
"Considering what happened in this town, I wouldn't be surprised"
"Let me here the story, it may give me a bead on who the person I'm fighting is"
"You know I could've give you his statistics if you would've asked"
"I don't mean how he fights, I meant I would get an idea on how this person works"
"Okay...this is what happened in this town..."
-Abandoned power station-
A man wearing full-rubber rain gear was twirling a metal pole around with high amounts of skill and was contemplating his next actions
"So...after several years someone actually defeated Jerry Jenkins...That man really peeves me off with how much he holds back, but..." He stopped twirling and stabbed the ground with his pole and a giant flow of electricity coursed through it and suddenly the entire station seemed to be running again with the snow melting around it "Considering it all, I would love to see how this person fights and see if he is really worthy of being called ranked, and to do that..." He negated the electrical flow going through his pole and the power station suddenly turned off, but not without water being everywhere "Let's see how you handle unfair environmental conditions" A spark of electricity came from this man's head as he walked to the place where he is going to wait.
