"But I said I don't want to attend the school" Henry argued.
"Ma'am, we found the demon" a man came to inform Emily.
"Keep it tied up and ready," she replied.
"Ready?. Ready for what!?" Henry asked in panic.
"We will dispatch it" A man came downstairs with May tied up, she was struggling with them but his grip was too tight for her.
"What...?" Henry wanted to say something, he wanted to do something, but his body felt weak. He was scared.
"But, you can save it on one condition" Emily who had noticed it used the opportunity to her advantage.
"What is it?"
"The demon will be used as an experiment and you will attend the academy"
"She's not a it!. She's is a living being!. she is a female, a female human!. So stop referring to her asif she's an mindless animal!. I won't let you do anything to her!!!!"
"It's really a simple choice" Emily said. "If you agree to join the Academy, we won't dispatch your little pet demon. You do want her alive, don't you?"
Henry gritted his teeth. "...Okay"
Henry was getting ready to head out with them when his boss showed up. Mr. John was six feet, eight inches tall, muscular man, his job has made him looked a lot older than his age but although his scary looks, he was kind-hearted.
"What is going on here?" He asked.
"Sir, what are you doing here?" Henry asked, surprised that his boss has for the first time decided to visit him.
"I was worried why you weren't at work for the past few weeks" he replied.
"Oh, I've been busy"
"This is none of your business, sir," one of the men with Emily replied calmly.
"That boy you are about to kidnap is my assistant and his father left him under my care, that makes me his guardian, which means this is actually my business" John explained. I don't know what's going on here, but if he agrees to follow you, that is his choice but the house is under my care"
_How did he know about all this?_ "
"If you say so. We'll be leaving the house to you. Our priority is the child" Emily said.
"Henry, don't worry. I will keep the house waiting for you" Mr. John assured me.
Henry nodded.
Throughout all this, May was still calm. Henry guessed it was because he was acting calm.
May was put in some unbreakable glass prison with nothing but a bed. According to Emily, they will be testing her intelligence to know which class of demon she is.
As for Henry, he was posted to Japan. They said he needed to be as far away from May as possible. And he just might discover some things about his father's death since he last mission was in Japan.

Henry arrived at the supernaturals academy in Japan, it was a long trip but he was glad it was finally over.
_I just hope May is doing okay. Don't worry, she is a demon, she will be just fine, but again, that's the reason why I'm worried._
As he opened the door to the principal's office, he was surprised to find a female.
_Someone should change that sign_
She looked like she was in her late twenties, she turned at Henry and cheerfully invited him in.
"Thank you" Henry said as he walked in
"You must be Henry, am I right?" The woman said with a soft tune.
"Yes ma'am"
"Sit" she said pointing to the chair in front of her table.
Henry walked to the chair facing her and sat down. He looked around the office which was well furnished and decorated with ancient painting of what he couldn't comprehend.
There was also a little girl, about six years old who looked a lot like the woman before him. She kept staring at him with her bright purple eyes but he didn't pay attention to her.
"I'm Natski Tokoyami, and from today you're going to be working for me"
"Okay, so what else?"
Miss Tokoyami brought out a folder and a jotter and handed them to Henry.
"These are your father's diary and that folder contains everything I know about him"
"You know my dad?" Henry asked in disbelief.
"He was more than a teammate, he was a friend" she said sadly.
"But my father told me that all his teammates were dead, if he said you're dead, how can you still be here?"
"That's our little secret, okay?" She said with a smile. "You can go, I've asked someone to show you around and tell you all you need to know."
Henry was about to stand up when Miss Tokoyami said something.
"What about an adoption?" Miss Tokoyami asked. "I did tell your father that I'm going to take care of you"
"Huh?!!!" Henry was shocked at the suggestion.
"I'm adopting you, from now on you can refer to me as mom and your new name hmm.... Hibiki Tokoyami. How does that sound?"
"I don't know. Isn't Henry just fine, besides I didn't ask to be adopted"
"Your skills is truly remarkable and when people find out you might be kidnapped and use for an experiment" She said. "You'll need my name if you want to achieve anything"
_I always wanted to change my name, maybe this was a great way_ I whispered to myself. "With that name I could really fit in"
Henry didn't really say much to her before leaving, he was too eager to know what was in his father diary.
The rest was a bit blurry, but Henry remembered meeting a blonde kid that was about the same age as him and a girl with pink hair. And he never got to read the diary.
# END OF FLASHBACK
_May, I've almost forgotten about her. I hope she's alright._
Hibiki slowly opened his eyes, it was still a little blurry but he could still make out some things.
He was lying on the ground with Mira, Kakashi and the other watching over him, waiting for him to wake up.
"Uh~. What happened?" Hibiki was finally able to make out everyone who were standing around him.
"Hibiki!, Are you okay?"
"Stay still, let me heal you"
"I was wrong about you, you did great back there"
"That was so cool, I've seen you use your technique"
All Hibiki heard was voices of his friends, people that cared about him.
At least, now I have a family who cares about me just the same way my dad did. Hibiki smiled widely.
"Mom, Mira, Kakashi, Ayaka, Kanade, and the rest of you, I'm fine"
