With the investigations of the Evangelist still going on, the next destination was Asakusa, Company 7's jurisdiction.Now, why Asakusa you ask? You see...

"It was a hot day.It was our first call out, every one was nervous. The victim who had infernalized was dressed all in white. We put them to rest without incident,but there were a lot of suspicious factors about that fire." as Hinawa was explaining, Shin was trying his best not to dose off, which back fired as he leaned his head on Shinra's shoulder for support, much to the poor boy's discomfort.

"An unfamiliar red cross." Hinawa explained, "No next of kin. The company where they worked hurriedly came to collect their personal effects."

"Looking into it, that business still exists." Obi continued. " It's located in Asakusa. That's the 7th's jurisdiction."

'Ah damn, no way can we get that man to co-operate.' Shin thought, yawning from how boring this history class was.

And so, here they were, right infront of Company 7. The captain, Benimaru Shinmon or Shinmon Benimaru which he much prefered, had wanted to ignore them, but they were already outside. Poor him.

'Eh... This place looks so... traditional?' Shin thought, slowly looking around the building that was nothing like a cathedral.

"What do you think you're doing barging your way in here?" The captain lazily said.

"I heard that Captain Shinmon Benimaru hated the bother of formalities, and we decided to just come over directly." Obi explained, if that was even an explanation.

"So you've come here unannounced. Fine." Shinmon replied unenthusiasticlly. "I don't care a bit about this Evangelist investigation, but I can't have anyone coming in to disrupt my turf."

Really, they were just going back and forth, with Obi trying to get the stubborn man to agree to their investigation while Shinmon tried his best in pushing them out.

Then Shinra decided to declare to him that he was gonna kick his ass. What an idiot.

Just then, the fire alarm had rung, signalling that there was an infernal. What great timing.

The rest was pretty interesting, with them eliminating the infernal in a very destructive way, destroying all the houses in the vicinity of the infernal.

'So cool...' Shin thought with sparkles in his eyes, making Shinra sweatdrop at the unusual amount of light coming from the young man.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Damn it. Why are we even doing this?!

Shin grumbled, casually lifting up multiple metal bars which many of the people couldn't even lift one of, constantly yawning.

"Is this all?" Shin asked, already sweating in the scorching hot sun.

"A-Ah, yes!" The men said, sweatdropping at the pure amount of metal bars brought at a time.

'Damn, if Obi didn't force me to do this, I'd probably be sleeping by now.' Shin complained, puffing his cheeks a little as he was walking around, finding things to help with.

"Oi, what are you still doing here?" A lazy voice asked Shin, to which the boy only turned his head slightly towards the figure.

"I dunno, I guess company 8 is gonna help with the construction, or whatever." Shin lazily replied wuth disinterest, turning his back on the Captain of Company 7.

'What's up with that brat?' Shinmon grew an irk mark, walking away shortly after.

"Tch." Shin looked towards his fellow comrades, all enthusiastically helping out with the construction. Honestly, how did he get so attached to people he was the complete opposite of? -----------------------------------------------------------

"You don't have to trouble yourself, Waka." Company 7's lieutenant, Konro.

Right now, Shinmon was helping Konro with his burns, which he got ever since he had overused his pyrokinesis in a certain incident.

While they were talking, the twins had barged in the room, followed by a tired Shinra and Shin, who could care less.

"Konro!Waka!" The twins happily exclaimed.

'Why was I even dragged here?' Shin thought, grumbling under his breath.

"Why are you guys here?" Konro asked.

"This big bozo is chasing Hika and Hina, trying to eat us!" One of the twins said, pointing at Shinra.

"Look, Waka, Konro! This big brother has beautiful long hair! Isn't it pretty?" The other exclaimed, running around the exhausted Shin.

"Listen here you little brat- Ow!" Shin was elbowed by Shinra, who had his signature nervous grin on, in an attempt to shut the boy up.

Shin only folded his arms with a little huff.

"I'm not showing off my flaming top for you anymore." Shinra said.

"Flaming top?"

"He shoots flames out of his feet and spins around wicked fast." The twins answered Shinmon's queries.

" It's called break dancing!" Shinra clarified, annoyed.

After that, the four left.

Konro smiled, "The folks from the 8th are some fairly pleasant people.They're not the same sort as the other Fire Force companies.Kind of like those of us in the 7th."

"I guess."

"Why not co-operate with their investigation?"

"If you were the captain, is that what you'd do?"

-----------------------------------------------------------

"Ah!Waka!" The twins exclaimed as soon as they saw the captain exit the room.

"I'm sorry about what happened just now, sir." Shinra apologised, while Shin just nodded.

"No biggie." was all the captain said.

"Um, about Lieutenant Konro's body..." Shinra was hesitant to ask, but stoll brought it up anyways, making Shin mentally facepalm.

"When a third generation exceeds the limit of his pyrokinesis, his body starts incinerating if he keeps going, and before long, is reduced to ash." Shinmon responded, confusing Shin, who has never had that type of problem before, even when he was using his ability non stop for days when he was training.

Tephrosis, was what it was called.

"Um...Is it possible for someone to not have that?" Shin lazily asked, with a hint of curiosity in his tone.

Shinmon turned towards the boy, shocked. "Every pyrokinetic has his or her own limits, are you saying you don't have that?"

Shin shrugged, "I've never felt tired, even after continuously using my pyrokinesis."

Shinmon sighed, before walking towards the two. "Shin, was it? I need to talk to your captain. Where is he?"

"He's across the way talking to Lieutenant Hinawa, I guess..." Shin flatly answered, yawning after.

For some reason, Shin had a feeling something bad would happen later. -----------------------------------------------------------

Now, company 8, besides Obi and Hinawa were gathered together, along with some other people from Company 7. Shin stayed beside Shinra, who was talking to Maki about something he didn't care about.

Dude was about to dose off then and there.

Suddenly, there was an explosion, several explosions, which Shin recognised as Shinmon's.

When we had reached the scene, Shinmon was about to attack both Hinawa and Obi. Shinra immediately stepped in.

"I don't know what you saw,sir, but please take it easy!" Shinra tried to diffuse the situation, which was of cource ineffective.

"Huh? Screw that! There's no reason to take it easy!" Shinmon retaliated. "Evangelist my ass! I saw your captain and lieutenant plotting how to turn this town's people into infernals!"

"You're mistaken!" Obi tried to defend.

'Ah... Imposters.' Shin nodded to himself in thought. There was no way Obi and Hinawa would do such a thing, there must be someone who had the ability to imitate people's appearances. They were good people after all.

"I'll crush you all and string you up!" Shinmon announced, already preparing to attack.
