Hello-ooo! Anybody home?
What's with all the racket?! Hinata? Is that you?
Lord Takumi, show yourself!
*sigh* That's Hinata, all right.
Is that any way to address your superiors? "Show yourself"? Seriously?!
Sorry. I was just practicing.
It sounded like you were trying to pick a fight!
Exactly! ...But not with you, of course!
I thought it was time we issued a challenge.
Huh?
Do you remember when we were in that fighting competition together?
Is that what this is about? You forgot the part where you fought and I watched. As a member of the royal family, I wasn't allowed to participate.
Oh, yeah. Fighting contests were too uncivilized, right? Well, anyway...
Remember how I threw down that challenge and beat the snot out of EVERYONE?
Shh! Can you keep your voice down? You're my retainer! You can't talk like that!
Yes, sir! Sorry, milord. *ahem*
Well, I was thinking we should round up our best fighters and hold another contest. With the war going on, we can't afford to get sloppy! We've gotta stay sharp! We used to take our best swordsmen and have them fight their way up the ranks.
I think it's time we do it again!
Well, that is an interesting suggestion, but...
It's gonna be awesome! Last time, I came out on top, and I'm planning on a repeat! You better get ready, because Hinata is going to BRING IT!
...Well, see ya! *leaves*
Whoa! Wait a minute! We haven't decided anything yet! Come back here, you idiot!
