The 2nd talk
Power trial (02/09) 02/12/15


Fuguri ran to the nearest station,
and took the same train that he always took to school.
The train went to a neighbouring town after it passed his school,
and he thought it would be best to go there.
Although it was mid-month and he was short on money,
he did not think it would cost too much more to go beyond his normal stop.
"Will another monster show up this time? I hope not, or what shall I do?"
While on the train, he considered how best to test his power,
but he could not think of a suitable way.
After a while, the train slowed down quite suddenly.
"The train's speed is limited while we pass through the
construction zone. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation..."

Fuguri raised his head at the conductor's announcement.
They were close to his school, and the area being restored was the station
which Fuguri had crushed during the fight.
"It's awkward to fight here... so many people I know"
Fuguri thought as he stared at the rubble heaped beside the tracks.
The train regained speed again, and finally slid into the terminal
some thirty minutes later.
As he had hoped, Fuguri was able to get off of the train there
without paying too much extra money.
He found himself in a small suburb of the city where he lived.
Fuguri had come to this town only once before, several years ago,
and none of his friends or relatives lived nearby.
