Chapter 45 - Chapter 42: The news

The next day.

Riku and everyone else wake up.

-Riku: "...wow, I slept really well this time...I guess I can finally go back to work, been like 5 canon days since I haven't gone in."

Riku joins everyone else.

-Riku: "Hello, kids, and Boberuto." (winks)

-Boberuto: "Good morning, Riku, or as I now like to call you, Mido*!" (Oh no, not that name again!)

-Yaku: "Good morning, Riku."

-Juni: "Good morning, Dad!"

-Amane: "greetings, dad."

-Iso: "Yo"

-Momo: "Papa!"

-Riku(experiencing the eclipse of happiness inside of him): "...I gotta go to work, guys, I'll be back later, see ya!"

Riku dresses up and leaves the house. On his way to his work, when suddenly sees something fly at high speed above Riku and the people with him. It was...3 silhouettes?

-Citizen 1: "What was that?"

-Citizen 2: "That's not a normal jet!"

-Riku: "Yeah...it looks thin..."

Suddenly, the big TV in those windows suddenly switched to the news.

 -News guy: "This is certainly the most unexpected news of all time, it has already been known across the whole world!"

-Riku (thinking): {What happened?}

-News guy: "It is going to be very hard for everyone to believe it, and also very hard for me to explain it."

-Riku(thinking): {explain it anyway!}

-News guy: "This is such great news, I can't handle it all by myself."

-Riku(thinking): {JUST SAY IT! I am gonna be late for work again.}

-News guy (wiping tears): "...3 new super heroes have arrived on our earth"

Everyone was in shock.

-News guy: "That's all for today, now back to your program!"

Switch to something else.

-Ad: "Tired of your periods? Call me and you can enjoy 9 months of freedom, catch is I disappear for 9 months too."

-Everyone: "3 heroes? I can't believe it! This is going to be really hard to believe, as the news guy said"

-Riku: "Yeah, anyway, I don't care. But I have a feeling this is too soon."

-Citizen 3(some paranoid guy, also loudly): "If heroes have come to earth...this can only mean one thing!"

Everyone focuses on him.

-Citizen 3: "...The possible end of the world...Is soon!" (not it's not...not yet, dummy the sun is gonna expand in 5 billion years, but pretty sure something else will happen soon...)

-Riku(thinking while walking off): {that guy...he's got a point, there is no way 3 heroes have randomly arrived at earth, there must be some kind of dangerous event happening...well, as long as the family is safe, not my problem}

After some time, Riku finally reached his workplace.

-Boss: "...Riku..."

-Riku(thinking): {what is it this time?}

-Boss: "Did you hear the news?"

-Riku: "Yes, I did."

-Boss: "If you didn't hear, the news talks about- oh, you did, meh, I was gonna waste minutes of your life talking about this...Anyway, I have huge news to tell you, and this time it's about me!"

-Riku: "What happened, boss?"

-Boss: "hehe...I will soon stop being a virgi-"

-Riku: "Can you say it in a proper way?!"

-Boss: "Hh, well, I got a boyfriend!"

-Riku: "Great? Hold on, how old are you, boss? And how old is your boyfriend?"

-Boss: "You know it's rude to ask a beautiful* woman about her age! Well, I am 43 and my boyfriend is 20" (get a load of this woman, dude)

-Riku: "...are you sure he's 20? and no 02?"

-Boss: "HEY! I am not that type of woman, you know! He truly is 20, I can even show you a picture!"

She reaches for her phone and shows Riku a picture.

-Riku: "Alright, he looks older than 2 at least, but clearly not 20".

-Boss: "ALRIGHT I ADMIT, HE IS ACTUALLY 18, NOT 20! PLEASE DON'T CALL THE POLICE ON ME!"

-Riku: "...fine, I won't, now if you let me go do my job-"

-Boss: "Look, as a payment for not revealing the truth, you don't have to work today!"

-Riku: "Alright, bye, boss!"

-boss: "Eh?"

Riku left as soon as possible, which was 1 second.

-Riku: "Welp, I came for nothing, but at least I get to see the family sooner than expected."

Riku accidentally bumps into a child, who looks like 7 or something.

-Kid: "Oh, sorry, sir."

-Riku: "No, no, I am the one who wasn't looking, kid, sorry."

-Riku(thinking): {I'd expect a child like this one these days to be more aggressive, he must be well raised}

-Riku: "Tell me, what are you doing out alone like this?"

-Kid: "I just like going out alone, I live near"

-Riku(smiling): "Hey, tell me, what's your name?"

-Kid: "I don't really like using my real name...But I prefer to be called...Axel"

-Riku: "...Axel?"

-Kid: "If you excuse me, I have to join my elder siblings."

-Riku: "..oh, then be careful!"

-Kid(thinking): {that man is nice...}

Riku entered back home.

End of chapter.
