Part 3

Year XX13 - Multilopolis Middle School - Rooftop

*Winds sounds*


Mio: We're here!

Marie: You decided to come too right Hugh?

Hugh: Of course!

Barry: Where's Fael?

Ayame: Right here!

Fael: ...

Jasper: ...

Barry: It seems everyone is here...Ayame, you can go now, make sure to don't tell the true purpose of why we are leaving.

Ayame: Roger that! This hall monitor didn't see anything!

Marie: The wind is strong today.

Hugh: No kidding...and combined with the early spring climate, it can get pretty chilly.

Barry: Well, time for the mission briefing.

Music - Logic and Trick


Barry: We'll head to Winter District, since we are only permited to enter in the central through that place.

Hugh: Might i ask why?

Mio: Well, it is a place where space is distorted, the are only a few areas considered safe.

Marie: I see, continue.

Barry: Once we enter in the Central, we will first, do the routine investigations of the rifts and the monsters.

Mio: After that, we'll take Fael to a certain "crossing."

Fael: It was there....right?

Barry: Yep, we had acess to the report of his death, there, was the information of the location of the death.

Marie: (Does he mean...authopsy?)

Mio: Are you understanding so far?

Fael: ...Yes...

Barry: After that, we'll leave the isolation city and go to the front of the Mishima building, we'll wait for the USF and the Shinra Agency.

Hugh: What are those? And what USF stands for? Undercover Sexy Fraternity?

Marie: ....

Hugh: My bad!

Fael: Don't worry, you can use us how you see fit Barry, we are willing to help with the current crisis.

Barry: I see, let's get going then.

Hugh: Yes!

Central Multilopolis

Music - Tension


Chunli: Hold it!

Cammy: ...

Chunli: You understand what I'm saying, don't you? This town was designated an "Isolation City" just the other day. Civilians are forbidden to enter.
Cammy: ...

Chunli: Besides, I know perfectly well you're agents from the "syndicate"... The syndicate supposedly destroyed a long time ago: the "Secret Shadaloo Society"!

Chunli: You're going to tell me... what happened to that man - to Bison!
Cammy: ...

Juni: You have been determined to be an obstacle to our mission. Recommend immediate elimination.

Juli: Concur.

Cammy: She does not concern us. Do not forget our mission. Our target is the Japanese government's Shinra organization. Do not let anything else obscure your vision. Let's go.

Juli: Yes sir!

Juni: Sir!

Chunli: Hey! HOLD IT! (First The Central gets made an "Isolation City". Then this uproar over "monster sightings". And now Shadaloo...What's the connection? Something big is starting... but what?)

Still in the Central, but high a top of a building

Music - Broken Feelings Clutched To The Chest

???: Ouch...What a horrible dream i had...I was hanging out with my friends when suddenly...those strange creatures started attacking...i tried to fight them but with no sucess...then...something...about a key...then light...but even still...i was engulfed...
???: Nah, i shouldn't worry too much about i-wait...
???: WHERE AM I?

Please to meet you all, my name Amano Cielo, just an ordinary schoolboy that...well, got involved into something big. You might not believe it, but i'm used to live in a small town, a small world as my friend used to say, we had peaceful days, i was about to start my last year of Middle School when suddenly, Shadow Creatures started to attack the city, and man, they where very hostile, attacked any people they got close to it, but they favorite target: Me! I just didn't knew why, everywhere i went, those things appeared, i didn't knew why. When i got tired to run, i decided to fight back, but for some reason, my attacks didn't do much, it was then...that i saw the light inside the darkness...


Amano: Man, this is bad, is this some kind of prank?

Of course, it was hard to believe even for me.


Amano: Nah, can't be, there's no way in hell that someone would carry me while sleeping to a city like this. Okay Amano, calm down, maybe that dream wasn't exactly a dream

Amano: ...but...then that means...my city...

It was when it struck me...that i might never see the place i was born and lived my entire life, i couldn't resist, i got on my knees and cried at my hearts content...it was the first time i ever experienced such sadness...but at the time, i didn't had time to cry.




Amano: N-Not these creatures again....You guys...what did you do to my city?
Heartless: .....

Instead of answering, they lunged at Amano, as if they where attracted by something...Amano tried to attack them again, as if knowing something would happen...and it did.


Amano: W-what is this key?

It's radiant light, obliterated the heartless with ease, more of them appeared, so naturally, Amano had to defend himself.


Amano: You want me? Then come and get it! Haaaaaaa!!!!

This was yet another catalyst for the Chaos of this city....

World Crossers Guild - Entrance

Music - The Long afternoon of the Mages


Shuren: And this finishes the unpacking...

Silvy: I'm going to miss our old guild, to think we would get a trasnfer to Multilopolis.
Lyzer: It was quite a surprise for me as well.

Shu: Seeing as this city needs help more than ever, you more than earned the trust of this city's police.
Lyzer: I know...

Silvy: Well, only now there's only us three, since the others stayed at the Old guild.

Shuren: We can add more two, since Main and Serena will be coming as well.

Silvy: Okay!
Shuren: And...that's all, i guess it's time to start recruiting.

Shu: I wish you the best of luck.
Shuren: Thanks Mister Shu.
Lyzer: When the hangar is complete, you'll be able to dock the Granzon there.
Shu: I see, farewel for now.

The Professor leaves, leaving only the three girls staring at their own home, the World Crossers Guild is famous for helping the entire world doing missions, the one that was constructed at Multilopolis Spring Zone is a special base with the intention to have members that can react fast to emergencies.


Shuren: I'm going to miss everyone...

Silvy: Me too...
Lyzer: Me as well, but we better get to start the work, we have no time to lose.

Shuren and Silvy: Roger!

Shuren: Um....I'm the leader...remember?

They entered the place, it was just like their old home, something that made them smile from inside.

Autumn Place - Abandoned Factory Quarter

Music - The (Four)Two Heroes


Rosa: I'm glad i'm not alone here!

Kail: Aww shit, i'm slowing down!

Rosa: There is that disavantage, he can't keep spinning for too long.

Kail: Alright, time to get serious.

Rosa: You should have done that from the start dummy, i'll cover you, don't worry about the shots. Mystical Shooter!

Kail: Okay! SORYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Rosa shot at the Eggmets, in other to nullify their shots, meanwhile, Kail started what people call Foe Tossing Charge swinging his Axe at any Eggmet that dared to be in front of him.

Tia and Freudia Battle

Noticing Necrox's plan, Thomas and Hugh decided to play along, Hugh dodged Freudia's attacks while Thomas continued to shot more dragons.


Tia: A S-Spell like this....

She was showing signs from breaking free from the bind, Marie noticed it and quickly placed Stalemate pieces around Tia, narrowing the space and making it harder for her to break the bind.

Tia: Tch... (The only way is to blow myself up...but i can't take another hit)

Marie: Alright Fael, GO! NOW!

Music - Path to certain victory


Fael: Heaven, Earth, Nature, Universe, Light! Grant me a Blessing! Full Power! EXCALIBUR!!!

Tia: Bad time for you to use it... (for me at least...)

Fael: That's why i was keeping it for the final! HAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Engulfed by a bright Light, Fael swinged his sword and threw a massive beam at Tia, she blew herself up to destroy the Stalemate and free herself from the bind, reuniting the last of her forces, she tried to hold the beam.

Tia: HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
Fael: HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Music - Embrace of Dreams

Suddenly, they started to have a conversation, as if they were never battling in the first place.


Fael: Say Tia, did we meet somewhere before?

Tia: We did, it was brief, but we did.

Fael: I see...

Tia: But, i was always watching you...

Fael: You were?

Tia: Yes, that's why i know a lot about you.

Fael: You probably saw how horrible i was last year.
Tia: Hihihi!

Fael: What?

Tia: My, you weren't horrible, you were just...how can i say, too hurt from inside.

Fael: I was?

Tia: Yes, you didn't want to fail, you wanted to protect everyone, however, your fears always clouded what you really wanted for yourself.

Fael: You're right....if i didn't had anyone to protect...my life would be empty...i would have nothing...and i wouldn't be able to live...that's why i didn't want to fail, i wanted everyone to live, for me it was good...

Tia: But, you learned that happiness is about living by your emotions and feel others people's emotions too.

Fael: I guess....i finally found a purpose for this ability i have...it is not to only to feel other people's sadness...but also happiness...the warmth of other people's hearts.
Tia: Exactly! You've been given a great blessing! So make sure to use it how it was supposed to be...not just for few, but a loooot of emotions!

Fael: Got it!

Then, an explosion of light occured, briefly blinding anyone who was close, when their vision returned, Tia was still on foot, but people knew better what the outcome was.


Fael: I...no...We won, Tia.

Tia: Congratulations...

She starts to fall to the ground, Fael quickly caught her before she hit the ground, but that was the last of his forces.


Fael: Sorry...

Tia: It's okay...as long as you...stay the kind person you are...it will be...fine...
Fael: ....

And then, both fainted at the same time.

Hugh once again shot a concentrate beam of lightining at the ice crystals in order to make a clear path for Thomas to attack


Thomas: Feel the power...of my Hakki.

Envelopped in a blue Aura, he slowly walked at Freudia, the very same aura suddenly attacked her, he quickly closed in and attacked with a sequence of punches and kicks, finishing with a flying kick.


Thomas: KISHIN! ROUGEKI-KEN!

[MagusDream]

Spiritia and Freudia Battle (End)

Thanks to Hugh's attack, the Schneekristal backfired and Freudia was hit by the electric discharge. She started to fall as she was hit by Thomas. His combo sent her away, in the direction of one of the Black Torches. Seeing how open she was now, Necrox dashed and started to hit the Black Torches with Gae Bolg and the chains of Fate.

Peach: What do you wish with me?

Iris: I would like to join forces with you.

Peach wasn't believing. How would her simply come here and say that? Iris has second intentions, and that was something that Peach was sure of it.


Peach: Why should I believe that?

Thomas: I get the feeling is going to get tougher from now on.

Marie: Oh look, there comes Barry and Mio.

Mio: Long time no see, everyone.

Barry: ...

Hugh: Mister smug face is here huh?

Barry: For your information, i was watching the entire fight...

Marie: Why exactly? I heard the RKS is one of the Secret Police's enemies.

Barry: Well...not anymore...

Thomas: Huh?

Music - 遥かなる時の彼方


Barry: I officially land the mission on defeating the RKS in your hands!

Marie: Are you serious? Won't that will give you trouble if your superiors find out?

Barry: I don't mind...maybe now i understand why Fael never put the Celest Familly back to the 4 Families group...

Hugh: Because....he would lose his freedom...being a tool of the goverment. ((Ah if Gray Fox was around.))

Barry: And be tied by laws that hinders him from seeing the right path.

Mio: Does that means your resinging?

Barry: Not yet....not until i rewrite those laws!

Hugh: You know how he is...even if he fainted, he still sleeps like a rock.

Marie: How can you say that so non-chalantly, we have to take everyone to the infirmary, help me here!

Hugh: Fine...I'll grab Fael, you grab Tia.

World Crossers Guild

Music - Preparations for War

((Okay, i'll be nameing SRW Mio with her Sasuga surname when 11eyes Mio is on the same place))


Masaki: You want us to form a team?
Lyzer: Exaclty, We need a team of unofficial and of new hunters to reinforce the safety of the Spring Zone. Also, it's a good way to train Mana and Sergios when they are not piloting. And also to keep an eye on the triplets, since they'll have it rough from now on.

Mio: Well...I dunno...

Masaki: Miiio!

Mio: Just kidding, this place is too fun for me to abandon like this! The problem is, i don't think my Aikido skill will be that much of help.
Lyzer: There's no problem with that, here, this is for you.

Mio: A katana? Well, i know how to use one, but like i said...
Lyzer: Masaki, prove her wrong.

Masaki: Eh? Why me?
Lyzer: I want to confirm something.
Masaki: And how do you suppose i should do tha...Oh.

He remembered how he fought against the Noise, his fighting skills where somehow beyond what he had imagined.


Masaki: Okay Mio, here i come!

Mio: W-what? Wait!

Masaki charged at high speeds at Mio, with sheer impulse, she striked him with an open palm, sending him flying to a wall.


Mio: Huh?
Lyzer: See? You can do if you want it.

Mio: Wow! This is real! Oh my Gosh!

THIS IS AMAZING! I FEEL INCREDIBLEEEEE! YES YES YES YES I CAN WIN! I FEEL GREAT! I! CAN! DO! THIS! COUNT ME IN LY!!!

Masaki: Ouch....I'm sooo happy for you... (sarcarsm)
Lyer: (Ly?)

Music - Smile and See


Mana: We're here!

Sergios: You wanted to talk with us?

Uni: Here as well.
Lyzer: It is to say your weapons are ready...well, nearly everything, Uni, your beam-rifle is still unfixed, but in the meantime, you have to make due with this.

Masaki: Huh? That weapon seems familiar somehow.

Uni: Wow! It's big, but it seems to have a pocket-space technology, so i won't have to worry on carrying this around...so, what it can do?
Lyzer: It works similar to your original weapon, it can shot bullets, they don't go that far, but they have power, it is called ExenLauncher B-Mode, shot beams that can hit far away targets, Called ExenLauncher E-Mode, you can also alternate between the two to make a combo of shot, called the ExenLauncher D-Mode, and then we have the ExenLauncher W-Mode...

Uni: What it does?
Lyzer: I'll let you figure that out for yourself.

Uni: Why i have a bad feeling about this?

Masaki: (So basically, she's Weissritter in human form...now i know the similarity...)

Mana: What do you have for us teacher?

Mio: Teacher?
Lyzer: Your moveset will be based on weapons hidden on the pocket-space, they'll react to your telekinesis and do actions at your will.

Masaki: Oh, so she's a Psychodriver?

Mana: That would be more in the lines of "Esper"

Masaki: What?

Mana: Just kidding! ((Dangan Ronpa joke yay!)) More like a psychic.
Lyzer: Here's the machine-gun pot, where you can summon turrets to shot at the enemy. I also equipped your gun to form an energy rod.

Mana: Wow! There's more?
Lyzer: I upgraded your gun to shot even more powerful beams, make sure to test them out.

Mana: I see, thank you very much! I'll make great use of these new weapons.

Sergios: (Is it me or she's turning Mana into a power house?)

Masaki: (Hmmm...Haven't see that setting before....) ((Cause you're not in 2nd OG yet.))
Lyzer: And now for you Sergios!

Sergios: Y-Yes!
Lyzer: Since you specialize in both close and long-range combat and can use that to your advantage, i'll give you a G-Impact Blaster, it has gravity properties so it has the change of making the enemy heavier.
Sergios: Wow, you really thought of everything huh? What's more?
Lyzer: These Giant Metal Boxing Gloves and bladed boots, you know what do with them.

Masaki: (Huckebein Boxer? Maybe i know why the ideas are so matching...Shu probably told more than just robots to her.)
Lyzer: But wait, there's more!

Sergios: There is?
Masaki: (You're actually surprised?)
Lyzer: Here's a metallic bandana that can shot weaker beams, your gloves can also morph into a mouth with sharp fangs, your boots can turn into saw blades, and then there's the Overblue Mode!

Mana: He actually has a Super Mode?
Lyzer: Yep! It is to compensate for your overpowered gun.
Mana: Oh!
Lyzer: That's all!

Sergios: Uni, you're going to the Isolation City right? We want to go as well. The teams isn't officially formed yet, so we are free to go.

Uni: Making a Test Drive right?

Mana: Yup!

Masaki: Well, we'll be going to Fael's school then. Want to say hi to him!

Mio: You guys better show up there after you're done in this isolation city.

[MagusDream]

School - Rooftop

As the battle ended, Necrox grabbed Freudia and started to walk to the stairs. Anna tried to use some magic at Magio, so she could take him.


Anna: Prince Magio... even unconscious, you smile...

Lilly: That's Magio being himself. OK now, let's take them to the nursery.

Necrox: Infirmary.

Lilly: It's the same thing!

Anna: Huh?! Prince Magio?!

BGM: Dearly Beloved (Dream Drop Distance)

Magio started to fade. Anna got panicked, but Lilly calmed her down.


Anna: Princess... did Prince Magio...?!

Lilly: We'll meet him later, when we're sleeping.

Anna: Princess. What are you saying? Are you sure that I should not worry? And what is it that you meant by meeting him when we are sleeping?

Necrox: You ask too much. Just stop being a worrywart all the time, Anna!

As soon as Necrox grabbed the doorknob, Laharl and the others pushed the door. He looked around, trying to find Magio.


Laharl: Hey, what's going on?! Where's Magio?!

Necrox: Gone to another world.

Laharl: Wait, you don't mean...?!

Mao: For his calm way to talk, I doubt that he died.

Etna: The Prince's always desperate about something. Magio is included, somehow...

Mao: In any case, leave them to us. You all should be going to the classroom now.

Lilly: It's OK. Also... we would have to explain everything.

Necrox: (It's not like that would make much difference...)

Mao: If you say so. Laharl, Etna.

Etna: I got it. C'mon, Prince.

Laharl: (Geez, talk about cutting my fun...)

Chapter 1

Part 4

Material World - Intersection in Central Multilopolis.

Music - Everything is in the fight


Xiaomu: A totally deserted city, huh? Quite a sight.

Xiaomu: The Mall must be wonderful now!

Reiji: Are you insane? For starters, none of these shops are open.

Reiji: Plus, how can you think about shopping at a time like this?

Xiaomu: Now that you mention it, something's not right.

Reiji: Damn straight, there's sorcery in the air. I'm pretty sure They're about to strike.

Xiaomu: Strong, but predictable. Well, if They _do_ strike they'll get their asses whupped.

Music - Accelerating Chaos

Three blue Scythe weaseals appear


Xiaomu: Oh, and here they are!

Xiaomu: Blue Scythe-Weasels, huh? Talk about your puny monsters.

Xiaomu: These bozos aren't worth me breaking a sweat. Reiji, move your ass and wreck 'em, show who's boss!

Reiji: Excuse me?

Xiaomu: Look, I haven't had breakfast yet, see? I'll be grabbing a snack at that restaurant over there, so just come and find me when you're done.

The Weaseals close in


Reiji: Shit, perfect timing. Hey! Xiaomu!

Xiaomu: Well, be seeing you.

Reiji: And here I was planning on giving back a little of that "nest egg" once we were done...

Reiji: But if you don't wanna fight, I guess there's no help for it. I'll just have to handle these guys myself.

Xiaomu: Well, what're we waiting for!

Xiaomu: You're right as rain with me on the job!

Reiji: Is she easy or what?

Music - Trembling City of Arisu


Reiji: Something about this town feels wrong. Let's get this over with and get back to the investigation.

The weaseals started to shot hurricanes at the duo, but they skillfully dodged them as if they were just little gusts of wind, Reiji closed in one of them and quickly slashed three times it with his thunder wakisashi named Chirai, meanwhile, Xiaomu got close to another scythe weaseal and slashed it with her water sword-staff Suiren, the remaining one tried to attack, but was gunned down by Reiji and Xiaomu's pistols.


Xiaomu: I swear, this happens every time a Quake goes off. Don't these guys ever get bored?

Reiji: Well, this is getting pretty repetitive...

Xiaomu: It's like a game of Whack-A-Mole or something.

Reiji: Maybe, but we've got to keep whacking for now.

Reiji: Let's go!

Winter District - Only Unblocked Entrance to Central Multilopolis

Music - Intermission


Barry: We're here.

Marie: This feeling...i've felt it before.

Hugh: What?

Barry: That's obvious! let's get going...

Jasper: Huh?

Jasper: Aren't those...Felicia and King?

Mio: The Felicia of world-wide musical fame from "The World is Mine"...

Hugh: You actually...

Barry: I'm cultured, diferent from you, even though i don't always have free time, i can always get my hands in a exclusive recording.

Hugh: Wow...i don't know what to say...

Barry: Stay quiet and let's get going... (It seems they were heading to the Namco Theater...at this time, the Momo's show must be ending...)

Fael: That show...

Barry: What?

Fael: If i didn't had school today, i would watch it.

Barry: It would be hard to buy a ti- wait, you actually...

Fael: I like it too okay? It has been a while since i went to any show, so maybe i would...

Marie: Let's...just...go...

Marie: (A while huh? A Year since the Zwei Wing concert....it was devastating for everyone...)

Central Multilopolis - Battle at the top of a building


Amano: Haa....Haa...Haa...It seems it is over...

He falls on the ground in relief, having cleared the area of the heartless, he decided to rest for a while...


Amano: Why this is happening to me? I don't understand....I can't....why? Why? Why am i still alive?
???: It seems your only option is to cry huh?

Amano: What?

Music - Queen of Rose: ALTER Memory

Suddenly, a peculiar smell of flowers filled the air, it was the scent of roses.


Rachel: I came here to see what this crying was all about, it appears it was just nothing.

Amano: Just nothing you say? You don't get it do you?

Rachel: On the contrary! I do get, and because that i understand it, i say that it is unimportant.

Amano: That's a screwed up logic!!!

Rachel: Is that so? Then try convincing why your problem is that important.

Amano: I lost everything!

Rachel: You can restart from zero. I know countless examples.

Amano: Kurgh...

Rachel: There are even people that use the very memory of having lost something to move foward.

Amano: Is that so?

Rachel: I already gave my explanation, if that didn't get into your skull, then the fault is yours for having the intelect of a bull...no, i think a mule woud be a better match.

Amano: Man, you sure like to bring other people down don't you?

Rachel: Hehehe! I'm just stating the truth.

Amano: Aww c'mon!

Rachel: But i must say i'm amused...it's rare to see a keyblade wielder these days.

Amano: Key...blade? You mean this dumb thing here?

Rachel: The Kingdom Key D...it has been a while since i saw that one.

Amano: Sigh...I still get nothing on what you're talking about...

Rachel: People should search for their answers, not wait for them.

Amano: Huh?

Rachel: It seems i was right, you can barely think...

Amano: You pretend to be gentle...but you can be such a bit-Ahem...Language...

Rachel: It seems you have good manners after all, i'm delighted such someone who's incapable of thinking at leats stops himself for using such a foul language. Well, i'll be going, must you entertain me a little more, maybe, but just maybe, i'll give the air of my grace in front of you again.

Amano: I would wish you not appear anymore...

And then, Rachel disapears in a gust of wind, together with the scent of roses, Amano looks at the sky for some seconds.


Amano: I refuse to accept what's happening with me...but i guess...there are some sense on her words, even if they were harsh...There's no use in crying, i have to discover what's happening with me! And this...Keyblade...hopefully will show me the way... i have this weird feeling that it will guide me!

School Rooftop

Music - Feeling Hi-fi


Hugh: (Aparently, obssession is unhealtly...)

Marie: By the way Hugh, no word of this to Hayate.

Hugh: W-why not?

Marie: Cause we would make her worry, and we don't want that, so no word that Fael fainted, capiche?

Hugh: Only if you take off those horrible glasses...

Marie: That reminds me...Thomas, can you carry Tia in my instead? I need to get my spare pair at the dorm.

Thomas: Sure, by the way, can you tell me what hapenned to y-

Marie: See you guys at the classroom!

She left in a hurry to get her spare pair of clear glasses


Thomas: Did i say something wrong?

Hugh: Nah! (She just don't want to mention the that accident again in front of Lilly.)

Fael: zzzzzz.....rice.....zzzzzz

Hugh: Okay...i didn't knew he dreamt about food.
Fael: zzzzzz.....I can't eat anymore...zzzzzz

Hugh: That's too cliche so stop it...

Fael: Oh shut up!

Hugh: You're wide awake aren't you?

Thomas: Please don't shake him...

Spring Zone Streets - Way to the school

Music - Everyday Routine


Mio: So Masaki, i know you would end up here by pure sheer mistake.

Masaki: Are you implying something?

Shiro: What is looks like?

Kuro: It's the usual....meow!

Mio: But i think in my case, i guess it was those distortions they kept talking about.

Masaki: Yeah, i heard we are not the only ones that are from another world.

Mio: So it's better we solve this problem first before going back to our world.

Masaki: Basing in that logic that you're here right?

Mio: That too! Though, i guess it would be from that logic that Yang-Long would follow for his stay in here.

Masaki: You think so too huh?

Mio: Yep!

World Crossers Guild entrance


Kael: Is everyone here?

Uni: Right here!

Mana: I'm coming too!

Sergios: I'm here as well.

Shu: Hmph...

Chika: Me too!

Silvy: Yeah, ready to roll!

Kael: Wait...Silvy?

Silvy: I thought i would tag along as well, you know me and that distortion city has an history right?

Kael: Y-yeah...however, i thought you didn't care about it anymore.

Silvy: It won't hurt if i go there again, it's just this once.

Mana: What? Can you guys tell me?

Uni: That...you would have to hear from Silvy.

Silvy: Trust me, it doesn't interest you newbies.

Sergios: I can't agree more, Mana, no more word from this.

Mana: Awww....

And the group departs for Central Multilopolis.

[MagusDream]

School - Rooftop Stairs

As they descended, Lilly noticed that Anna wasn't able to stop worrying about Magio's sudden disappearance. Indeed, she was truly worried about him.


Anna: ...

Lilly: I told you to stay calm. He's not gone. At least, not forever.

Etna: Well, you're not helping a lot.

Mao: I think it would be reassuring for her if you told to her what's going on.

Laharl: Yes, that's right! Explain yourselves!!

BGM: Border Between Dream and Reality

Necrox sighed, starting to show signs of anger. He turned back to Laharl.


Necrox: Even if we explained, you would never believe. So what's the point of wasting time with futility?

Laharl: How can you be so sure?

Etna: I have to agree. If you don't tell us, we'll never see if we trust you or not.

Necrox: That doesn't matter. We're not telling because it has nothing to do with you.

Mao: I'm understanding your point, but we're worried about him. As his friends, we have the right to know where he is!

Necrox: And as his brother, I have the authority to not speak unless I feel like. And since that'll never happen, you won't remove anything from me.

Angered by their curiosity, Necrox quickly moved downstairs. Laharl quickly threw a serious glance at Lilly.


Laharl: If he's not telling, you will! Spill it out, Lilly!

Lilly: ...

Etna: What's the matter? Cat got your tongue or something?

Lilly: I'm sorry. But it's just as Necrox said. What we know as truth may sound like a lie to you.

Laharl: Stop making excuses and just tell us!!

Anna: Princess... I want to know. Please, tell to me.

Lilly: ... Sleep.

Anna: Huh?

Lilly: Sleep and you will find him. That's all that I can say for now.

And she descended the stairs as well. One thing they knew for sure: the Triplets are always accompanied by some mystery that the answer is clouded in the darkness that they create. The hint that Lilly gave wasn't really making sense, but for the two of them, it wasn't something that they could simply spit. Even so, Anna lowered her head, but still talked.


Anna: Mr. Hugh... Ms. Marie... Mr. Thomas... I have a favor to ask of you.

Anna: Even if they wish to keep as a secret, I want to know what did happen to Prince Magio and where he is. So please, if you can... convince both of them to speak.

Mao: You are really worried with him...

Anna: I owe my entire life to Prince Magio. For what he did to me and to my family.

Autumn Area - Abandoned Factory Quarter

After some time, they were able to drive out all the Eggmets around them.


Giovanni: Alright! We did it!

Seraph: It was a rather long battle. That's for us to learn how to act faster in the next time.

Giovanni: Aww... no lecturing now! Sheesh, whenever I'm commemorating, you're always doing things like that.

Seraph: It's my task. After all, I'm the one watching over you for now.

Giovanni: *sigh* You're boring sometimes...

Then, Giovanni looked at both Rosa and Kail.


Giovanni: Oh, sorry Where's my manners...

Giovanni: My name is Giovanni and this is Seraph. Thanks for helping us.

[Kael Taiyou]

Autumn Place - Abandoned Factory Quarter

Music - Soft Hair, clear eyes


Kail: That was nuthin!

Rosa: We were just doing our job as hunters.

Kail: Speaking the job, i think it's time for the questions now.

Rosa: Let's first introduce ourselfes, it's courtesy after they said theirs.

Kail: Okay, I'm Kail, and this is Rosa, we a both Hunters from the World Crossers Guild.

Rosa: Nice to meet you two!

Kail: And now that's been dealt with...

Rosa: Oi, don't be hasty, you have to do this with calm.

Kail: A-alright...why don't you do it then?

Rosa: Fine...Well, excuse me if i'm being a bit too intrusive, but what you two are doing in a place like this? The police has deemed this area off-limits to civilians. Are you guys here because of the rumors of the place being cursed?

Music - Cold Rain


Hugh: I dunno...they seemed hell bent on keeping that secret...I don't think if we should touch it now.

Thomas: Well, i know some people that might help us.

Hugh: Some....people?

Thomas: The ones that are sleeping right now.

Hugh: Well...if fainted counts as sleeping...

Thomas: Well....i'm afraid that they might dismiss it as a "simple dream", it is up to us to deduce what's happening.

Hugh: I see....so, you're implying that Magio is some sort of dream world?

Thomas: Err....No...but you made a good point.

Hugh: That solves part of the mystery.

Thomas: (Terriyfing, Hugh can deduce stuff like that when he gets the chance.)

Hugh: Although, i doubt Fael would be much of a help, he's sleeping like his usual self...it doesn't seem he's "seeing Magio" in his dream...

Thomas: Then, it is up to Tia and Freudia to tell us their fidings.

Hugh: Until there, we'll have to wait, have patience Anna, sooner or later, we'll discover what's happening.
Hugh: So...which way is the infirmary again?

Thomas: You actually don't know where it is?
Hugh: Nope!

Thomas: ....This is going to be a long day...

Dorm Rooms


Marie: Okay, let's see, glasses...glasses...ah! Here!

Marie: There, much better! I can see cleary now!

Marie: Hm?

Music - Demons Party

Marie notices something close to Lilly's belongins, a thick red book with a peculiar design on it's cover, she thought it was familiar, and giving her a feeling of Deja-vu


Marie: I know the others are waiting but....

Marie: Just a peek...i'm sure Lilly is not going to mind.

As she grabbed the book and opened, she saw some weird language, that soon turned into the language she understood.

"You'll see something that will startle you shortly."


Marie: Startle me?
???: HAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Music - JOKER


Marie: Gah!

She immidetally released the book, dropping it on the ground, started by the sudden screaming, Marie started to think the feeling of deja-vu was foreshadowing.


Marie: Um....Overlord Zetta?

Zetta: Exactly! It's me, Lord Zetta, the most badass freaking overlord in the entire cosmos.

Marie: That self centered way to talk....that's him.
Zetta: Is this is how treat your books? Grab me already!

Marie: O-okay...

She quickly grabbed the book, also known as Overlord Zetta, known as the most strongest Overlord around. Having been told about a prophecy that his netherworld would be destroyed, Zetta consulted the Sacred Tome, a book with the recordings of his netherworld, and seeing in the tome that his foolishness would doom his world, he burned the book in a fit of rage, only to remember that by destroying the tome, his netherworld would vanish, together with him. He confined his soul in the sacred tome to save himself. Now, Zetta works to restore his netherworld as well as his old body, but he had some detours thanks to a certain oracle.

Zetta: Oh, it's you Marie...you seem diferent...

Marie: Only now you noticed with was me...
Zetta: Enough of that, can you tell me where am i?

Marie: You don't know? We are in Multilopolis Spring High School.
Zetta: High?

Marie: Yeah, we met an year before in the library of the middle school...you nearly fried me back there...
Zetta: I remember that, i just don't remember how i ended up here?

Marie: Weird...
Zetta: Anyway, let's get going?

Marie: I'm a little busy...
Zetta: What can be more important than helping me?

Marie: My studies....
Zetta: .....

Marie: Now now, don't look so mad Overlord Zetta, i'll help you as soon as possible okay?
Zetta: Very well, i can wait...

Marie: Okay then!
Zetta: Wait, where are you going?

Marie: Where? Everyone is waiting for me.
Zetta: You just can't leave me here!

Marie: W-what you want me to do?
Zetta: Carry me for the time being, we need to find someone to wish for another piece for my netherworld to be rebuild...and to give Pram a lesson!

Marie: Well...since you'll fry probably fry the school with a Zetta beam....i don't have a choice anyway!
Zetta: HyaHahahahahahahaha! I AM BACK!

Overlord Zetta has joined the party without anyone's consent...and much to Marie's dismay!


Marie: Now i know Lilly is going to mind....

[MagusDream]

School - Lilly and Marie's Room

Lilly opened the door as she was in a way, feeling sorry for what she did to Marie. When she entered, she didn't looked as she already started talking.


Lilly: Marie, I'm deeply sorry for the Teleporter! I-I promise that I'll fix it! I swear!

When she looked back, she finally saw Zetta.


Lilly: ............

She was speechless, angry and at the same time disappointed. Zetta was carefully hidden into a sealed portion of Etoile Sirius. She even knew the danger of having him around them. However, now that he saw Marie around, there was nothing she could do... other than burning Zetta to dust, or something lower than that.


Lilly: ... Zetta. I have many things to ask you by now. First of them, what the hell are you doing here? No, wait. Scratch that. My true question is...

Lilly: How do you want your life to end? Crushed by boulders... burned by the flames of Hell... or do you want me to summon Petta?! You do know very well that I can summon your daughter here and now... and at the same time I can end her life!!

School - Corridor


Anna: ...

Mao: Wait a second... Anna, from where exactly did you came?

Anna: Well, I found a passage through the Princess' library...?

Mao: Then use her library to find your answer! If I know it very well, Lilly has the most complete database in the Multiverse. Maybe you can find something!

Anna: I had never thought about that... thanks, Mr. Mao!!

Laharl: You're acting like a human... yuck...

Mao: Do you have any problem, Laharl?

Etna: Well, demons aren't supposed to be gentle. And why are you acting like that?

???: Duh! Because secretly, Mao's a delinquent. Just like me!


The Image Girl of Delinquency
Raspberyl
A demon girl who does nice acts. She uses her book and its spells to attack.


Mao: B-Beryl?!

Raspberyl: Finally found you! Where have you been, Mao?

Mao: What does it matter? I just came here to see a friend, that's all.

Raspberyl: Honestly!! You're the school's Dean!! You're supposed to be responsible for everything that happens in the school!! You can't just disappear like it's nothing!!

Mao: Don't go lecturing me! What it matters if the school's on fire?! I'll fix it later!!

Raspberyl: Not to mention, none of us know what to do" After all, without you, the students are running wild! Almaz came with me desperate, but...

Mao: But...?

Raspberyl: He lost his track...

Mao: *sigh* What a great hero we have....

Near the School

???: I lost my way! Miss Beryl, why did you used a spell and left me alone!
??? 2: Oh, are you lost?
???: Y-Yeah... and who are you?


Fallen Angel Love Freak
Flonne
A former angel that has faith in love more than anyone. She believes in that so much, that it's her main power.


Flonne: I got lost myself here too. Maybe we can find our way together!
???: Wow, you're kinda right! OK, let's go together!

Flonne: Oh, but what's your name?


Everyone's Frighted Hero
Almaz von Almandine Adamant
A righteous apprentice of heroism. However, even with high powers, he has too many fears...


Almaz: OK, let's go, Flonne!

Flonne: Yup!!

Music - Silence and Disturbance


Amilia: ....

Nepgear: So Doctor, how is she?
Lyzer: Well, it just like it looks, she completelly exausthed, her symptoms are the same as Rosa when she's tired, this girl used too much magic.

Amilia: (It's part true...i wasn't supposed to get this tired...)
Lyzer: This ring you're using... Is it the dormant form of your magic device?

Amilia: H-how do you know that?
Lyzer: I know two people that uses trinkets like that...

Shuren: (T-trinkets? You call them that because you're not that good with magic?)

Amilia: Two? (One must be Marie...who's the other?)
Lyzer: Just take it easy next time, here's an health drink.

BGM: Comedy

Lyzer gives a Amilia a cup with a strange green substance on it



Amilia: *Frowns* H-health drink?

Nepgear: Y-You actually made one?
Lyzer: Yes, you got any problem?

Shuren: (A lot! You shouldn't give weird stuff to people since you're not a proper medic...)

Amilia: W-well...are you sure this will work?
Lyzer: Of course it will, just drink it!
Amilia: Okay....

Nepgear: H-hey, you shouldn't...

Shuren: Yes! I heard health drinks aren't that healthly!
Lyzer: That's a contradiction you know.

Nepgear: Err....

Amilia: (Lyzer...I wonder if she found out about my seal....well...i don't want to cause suspicions so...)

She gulps everything at once, and then...her palate gives a pretty horrible sensation, everyone present in the room gave a shocked look at Amilia's distorted expression.

Music - Game Over


Amilia: URGH! (W-what is....this...) *faints*

Nepgear: Amilia-chan!

Shuren: AMILIAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

Winter District Streets

**Comedy briefly resumes**


Mana: Guys? Did you hear that? It sounded like millions of voices cried out in anguish...and were suddenly silenced...

Silvy: That's a bad sign...right?

Sergios: She's just hearing things....

Uni: Yeah, don't say scary stuff like that out of the blue.

Mana: S-Sorry...

Yagami Residence

Music - Miscasting

After coming back from the hospital, the Wolkenritter briefed Hayate in what the book she had in her possession really was, it was the Book of Darkness, one of the most powerful and dangerous Lost Logia.

Behind the Scenes - Lost Logia

Music - Epic Tale of a Holy Death

Marie, now less overwhelmed by the infinty of Books in Etolie Sirius, decided to search for more books that picked her attention, she came back with a pile of them and put them over a nearby desk, then she decided what to read first and then made her decision.

Marie: Lost Logia, i guess this one will be interesting!

After opening it, Mei started to learn that the Lost Logia are very old artifacts with great power that came from the Collapsed Ancient Belka civilization, most of thse atrficats still unknown to those who research for these old relics, Marie noticed that some of these articfacts had some degree of information on them.

Marie: Let's, Jewel Seed, Relic, The Saint's Cradle, Bible of Silver Cross...Book of Darkness...

She decided to read about the book, An artifact originally used to gather and keep magic, at some point in the past, the book was tampered and it's Defense System went corrupted, losing some of it's old functions, as time passed, the book would choose masters so that they could gather magic power from Linker Cores to complete it's 666 pages and liberate it's true power, however, doing so would be extremelly dangerous and couse cause rifts in the multiverse, the book would kill it's current master because of the corrupted program, and the went dormant again until another master was choosen. If for some reason, the pages of the book isn't completed, the book lays a curse on it's master by feeding from his life energy. There are no ways to seal the book, nor destroy it, once the master dies or the book is destroyed, in a few years the book would be completelly regenerate and appear somewhere else in the multiverse, after a new master, continuing this vicious cycle.


Marie: A Book so dangerous that it can't be sealed...a vicious cycle...cursing the master...i feel bad for whoever possess that book.

Then, Marie closed the book, wondering if there could be more that she could learn more about the book.

Hayate: I see, so this one is called the book of darkness
Signum: Yes.

Hayate moved her wheelchair closer to the desk, and then started to search from something in the drawers.


Hayate: He had stayed in my shelf since i remember, and since it's a beautiful book, i have been taking good care of it.
Shammal: Didn't you hear its voice when you were awaken or sleeping?

Hayate: Hmmm...I guess i did, but since i'm not a mage, it sounded too low for me. I showed it to my brother yesterday.
Signum: That Fael boy...right?

Hayate: Yup, maybe he noticed something, i just didn't had the oportunity to ask him.
Zafira: (Do you think he knows about the book?)
Shammal: (I can't tell...)
Hayate: Ah! Here it is!

She moves the wheelchair close to the Wolkenritter again.


Hayate: There's one thing i know for sure, as the Master of the Book, i need to provide my guardians some necesities, i need to take care of you all. Luckly i'm very good at housework, i can cook well, even though i have people living here with me, i'm sure Mom and Fael won't mind.

Hayate: I'm going to buy some clothes for you all, but i need to take some measurements first.

Wolkenritter: ....

They were perplexed, Hayate was the very first master that have threated them with kindness, not as tools, since the Guardians of the Book are living magic programs instead of normal humans, they expected a diferent, or for the Wolkenritter, "the usual" threatment.

School - Lilly and Marie's Room

Music - Re:stung

Zetta: Huh? Daughter? What the hell are you talking abo-

Marie: How cruel...
Zetta: What?

Marie: Zetta, can you stay quiet for a while...
Zetta: W-what is this all of a sudden...

Marie: It's about what Lilly said just now...
Zetta: What? About me having a daughter?

Marie: About Lilly killing her? Have you no heart? Making a threat like that! I know Zetta is a big bossy jerk and all...but that gives you no right to give a threat like that!
Zetta: ....

Marie: And for your information, i'm helping Zetta on my own free will! So now...say you're sorry right now and i'll overlook this!

((Be happy that i decided not to make Marie break up their friendship. I was seriously considering this.))

[MagusDream]

School - Lilly and Marie's Room


Lilly: (Did I heard that right? Is she truly defending Zetta? Well, I guess it was overboard of me to put Petta in the middle... maybe I need someone to snap me out...)

Lilly, deeply lost into thoughts, closed her eyes and then looked at Marie again. She smiled at her anger.


Lilly: ... You're right. I got overboard and I'm sorry to both of you ... and Zetta. I'm saying something that I might regret in the later future: you won I'll help you as well.

Lilly: But, play with Marie and you'll suffer a slow and painful death... are we clear?

School - Infirmary

Necrox put Freudia into one of the infirmary beds. He sighed like there was no tomorrow.


Necrox: ... Maybe I'll sleep too. I have to find him, after all...

Necrox: I just wonder how much does he believe in them...

Freudia wasn't truly unconscious and Necrox's thoughts were looping into his mind. He decided to release some steam out of his mind.


Necrox: Magio... you're such an idiot. Always giving your hope and trust to anyone you meet. When you'll learn that by doing that, you'll only hurt yourself...?

Necrox: Now that he has this weapon, the Keyblade, I'm feeling that it's better to make him more distant from the others.
Freudia: I disagree.

When Necrox turned around, Freudia was already up. The others didn't reached yet.


Necrox: So you were awake. Why didn't you opened your eyes before I brought you here.

Freudia: I thought that I should listen to your inner feelings once in a while... you rotten devil.

Necrox: !!

Freudia: Do you know what makes your brother better than you? He doesn't have fear of risking his trust on anyone. He believes that everyone has a portion of goodness, and that allows him to perceive those who are of evil and those who are not.

Necrox: What my brother truly has is a big sense of innocence. The day he learns how painful it is to trust all those that he meets, I'll smack in your face that I was right.

Freudia: ... Jealousy. That's what makes you so rotten. Uncapable of being like him, you try to confirm things with logic. Typical, coming from you.

Necrox: !!

Freudia: Your friends are his friends. They have the right to know where Magio is, what you three are and your destiny so far. No more secrets, Necrox Toadstool Scarlet, Vampire of Fate!

Necrox's anger was going to his limit. He really wanted to unleash his power and kill Freudia... but she was right. The one standing in his front told him all that makes him a hated personality. Jealous of how his brother was able to make friends fast, it was his only option to leave emotions aside and make full convincing logics...


Necrox: Fine, you're right. I'm jealous, so what? No one ever understood how I feel and no one cares!

Freudia: Are you sure... that no one cares about you...?

Necrox: I'm hated throughout many worlds. Ask everyone.

Freudia: Such a pitiful and pathetic creature...an example of person who hides himself and uses force as a main solution...

Necrox: I don't need your pity. I can live alone. Also, our problems never were theirs to begin with... and they don't even care how we feel or not!

[Kael Taiyou]

Music - New World Order

Zetta: Fine...Do whatever you want... (Wait, what the hell? Why am i forgiving them? Maybe i'm really getting soft.)

Marie: Sigh....Sorry i was a little overboard there...I just can't stand cruelty...

Marie: I guess it's time i tell you something...well, i came from a family of people that uses Ancient Magic, one of the oldest type of magic, however, some years ago, my family decided to ban the pratice...and..as you can see, i revived the tradition...and got disowned by my own parents, result: I'm living alone in my house, without the love and care of them...while i blame them for being this cruel with me...i also blame myself for disobeing them....
Marie: The only people that knows about this are Hugh...and you...Fael never knew the truth because...you know...he would try to solve the problem...and i didn't want him to fight in vain...

Marie: So that's why Lilly...i.....i....

Marie is usually a strong person emotionally, having being able to hide her suffering all this time, being able to keep her head in place in battles, being one of the few who dare to correct Hugh with his antics, but this time, she couldn't hold it anymore, she hugged Lilly and started to cry.

Infirmary


Hugh: That's funny you saying that, why the hell we accepted the crap of dealing with that psychotic sister of yours eh?

Hugh and Thomas arrived at the infirmary just in time for the last line.


Thomas: And if i'm not mistaken, i still remember that you offered to help me with my memory problem ealier. Your contradicting yourself Necrox! You say that your problems aren't ours, but you're just as us, butting on other people's problems even if nothing of your business as well.

Hugh: So stop saying such hypocritical crap! And for your information, even if we still don't understand some things, we are doing our freaking best to understand it, and you keep hiding it!

Hugh: Also...didn't you say you like me? How the hell can you say that you can live alone if you can show affection for others well?

Hugh: You know...i guess i actually understand you know. You just like to keep a tough exterior, just like me, but hates when people see your good side, and don't like when people are showing their good side, i'm like that too, i don't like when Fael and Marie are too forgiving on things sometimes...but who i am to judge? I'm just like them on the inside!

Thomas: Wow...who are you and what you made with Hugh?

Hugh: Shut up! And you want to know more about me? Fine! I'll tell you...

Thomas: Whoa, your tone got louder, i think it's okay to stop now, Necrox already got the picture.

Hugh: NO! He needs to know more! I...actually have a crush on Marie !!!

Music - Tomboyish Princess


Fael: Is that true Hugh?

Spiritia: Have you confessed yet!

Hugh: GAH! Did i just say that loud? (And why those two have awakened just at this moment?)

Thomas: Yup, very loud, and they have awakened by that, it seems...

Hugh: Damn...forget that last bit!

Very embarassed, Hugh drops Fael and runs away, only to hit clumsily the hall of the infirmary, in his usual goofiness.


Thomas: (Must...not...laugh....)

Spring Zone - Front of School


Masaki: Wow, we arrived quicker than expected?

Shiro: And we didn't get lost at all?

Kuro: What is this madness meow?

Mio: (Secretly hiding a map.) See? Masaki can when he puts his mind on it.
Kuro: Unbeliavable meow...
Shiro: Maybe Kyouske betted that Masaki would find the way to the school in the first try.

Kuro: But He isn't here meow.

Shiro: Then it was Kael, he got that Kyousuke vibe in him.

Mio: Who's Kyousuke again?

Masaki: A friend of mine from the surface world. He likes to say that he doesn't mind betting on the low odds, so i get the point Shiro made about Kael. (And then i ask...does he have a move smiliar to the Revolver Stake?)

Mana: No way! The Pilot Mana and the Hunter Mana are completelly diferent!

Shu: We must not stay in this place for too long.

Kael: I know that!

Mana: Why?

Sergios: Distortions that's why, even in the safe areas it's good to keep your eye open.

Mana: Got it!

Silvy: It's so cute seeing you two.

Mana: W-what? Just because we're greenhorns!

Silvy: Hahaha! Well, i was clueless like that as well.

Mana: Mind telling me your experiences?

Silvy: That won't help you at all you know.

Mana: Even still...

Silvy: Maybe later then!

Mana: Deal!

Uni: Say Kael...

Kael: Hm?

Uni: When i find a way back to my world...i'll probably leave everyone...including you...

Kael: ...

Uni: So i was thinking...after all of this is over...maybe you could live with me in Gamindustry.

Kael: Uni...

Uni: Think about it okay?

Kael: ...yes...

Uni: Thanks....

School - Lilly and Marie's Room

Lilly felt Marie's true emotions once she hugged her. Lilly responded in kind and hugged her too.


Lilly: ... I'm sorry. I saw a different you. That you never had any weakness to hold you back. But now that I remember, you're a human, just like me.

Lilly: Truth be told... I can't help you that much. I never had a father or a mother to begin with. It was always me, Magio, Necrox and Peach. I was so sure that I never needed that. But I needed. I wanted someone to scream at me whenever I was wrong, someone to sing as I always had problems to sleep. But I never had that. Everything in my life... was so logical that I... envy you, somehow.

Lilly left the hug and looked at Marie. She used her fingers to remove the tears from her face. And then, she smiled.


Lilly: Marie... I promise that whenever you falter, or whenever you need a comfort... I will be there as your friend. I don't want your life like mine, entirely based on logic.

School - Infirmary


Necrox: ... pffft...

Freudia: Necrox...?

Necrox: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! What a surprise!! I never laughed this good!! Oh, how I'll torment him with that!! He better be ready, but I'll be a friend that he'll never forget!!

Then, Necrox felt something that something that was missing into his heart returned. He sighed, seeming relieved.


Necrox: I finally understood. What makes my brother better than me... is that he tests how much he can trust someone... and ends up truly gaining more than only a trust. He gains friends. People that he believes and trusts, and that at the same time, receives their hope, their happiness and gains a reason to keep trying...

Freudia: You finally understood...

Necrox: It took some time... but I'm a blockheaded person anyway.

Freudia: *giggle*

Necrox: ...Well, when we have time to chat again, I'll explain to where Magio headed. Now, I have some business, like tormenting Hugh with his little secret...

Amilia Flashback

Multilopolis Streets, Two years ago

Music - Witches Overture


???: Hey, are you okay?

Jirmis: M'lady, you shouldn't talk with these poor street people.

???: Silence...Can you say your name?
Amilia: A...Amilia...

???: Nice to meet you Amilia, it's raining at the moment, can you follow us to our home?
Amilia: I...I don't want to cause trouble...

???: Hehehe! If we are offering you a place to stay, then there isn't any trouble you'll cause, unless of course, if you are willingly to betray our trust.
Amilia: ...

???: Can you at least look at my face?
Amilia: Ye-SISTER?

???: Huh?
Amilia: But...You just...

???: Calm down, i'm not your sister. (This isn't even my true form)
Amilia: Y-You're right...your voices are diferent...

???: Let me guess...your sister died just now?
Amilia: ...

???: (I can't really help here, if she already died, i can't avert her fate, it's only possible in the moment at the death..) I'm sorry...
Amilia: It's not your fault...

Zana: You can call me Zana.
Amilia: Zana? That's...the same name of my sister.

Zana: Wow, more coincidences! (Not really, i just made a prediction, something a Time Diver such as i can do.) So, will you take my offer from early? It seems you don't have anywhere to go right?
Amilia: ...Fine...
Zana: Teehehe!

Zana's Mansion

Amilia: W-wow! You really live in a place like this sis?

Zana: Of course! I made it myself!
Amilia: A-Amazing!

Zana: You'll be living here from now on.
Amilia: S-seriously? But why?

Zana: I don't know...maybe because i'm soft like that. (So soft that i keep interfering with everything...)
Amilia: Thanks sis!

Zana: You kinda remind of myself some years ago...i was in a situation similar to yours, i was abandoned on the streets, then someone offered their help.
Amilia: Someone?

Zana: Yep, his name is Hisao Celest Duarte... ((Yup, Fael's father, i decided not to portray him as a complete jerk this time.)) he was so kind.
Amilia: Can you introduce me to him?

Zana: Unfortunatelly, he is not in this world anymore...
Amilia: ....
Zana: Don't feel so bad, i told you this from my own will, it's not something you should blame yourself.
Amilia: I see...

Zana: Jirmis, prepare something for our new family member.
Jirmis: As you wish m'lady!

One year Later, at XX13


Amilia: Thanks for the new clothes sis!

Zana: When i look back, you used to be so skinny.

Amilia: Well...it's because i didn't eat that much...

Zana: Hehehe! Say Amilia, have you thought on what i asked you this morning?

Amilia: Yes...I'll fight for you, sis!

Zana: Thanks for accepting...

Even if she seemed happy, somehow, i could tell it wasn't entirelly, i underwent a harsh trainning for one year to master flower breeze, determined to retribute the favor from saving me from the streets.

End of Flashback

Music - Sabat


Amilia: That tasted horrible...
Lyzer: *fliches*

Nepgear: AMILIAAAAA!!!!

Shuren: (She didn't sleep for much long.)

Amilia: O-okay, i'm fine now, don't need to hug so hard.
Lyzer: How's your body?

Amilia: Let's see...Hmm...I'm...actually way better than before. (I'm not even feeling bad anymore, now i don't hae to struggle to keep the seal on.)
Lyzer: See? It works!

Ragna: But you had to make it taste awful!
Lyzer: Well, it can't be helped, medicine wasn't supposed to taste good.

Shuren: (Health Drink is considered Medicine?)

Amilia: Can i have more?
Lyzer: You actually want more?

Amilia: Well...they work right? So i must take some with me in case this happens again.
Lyzer: Fine by me... (They are the test models anyway...)

Amilia: Thanks! I'm going now!

Nepgear: Won't you stay a while longer?

Amilia: I'm very sorry, i'll have the free day tomorrow so i'll come back!

Nepgear: Okay, that's a promise.

School Infirmary


Fael: One of the most fun things you can do with Hugh is to tease him, so have fun!

Hugh: Baka! Don't say that to him!

But Hugh's protests were ignored.


Thomas: By the way Fael, do you have something with that Hibiki girl? I heard Hugh speaking something about it.

Fael: By the way, where's Magio? I heard Necrox saying that he'll tell us where he is.

Thomas: (Changing subjects huh?) Before that, how are you feeling?

Fael: Well...No energy based attacks for a while.

Thomas: (Which means, he fainted because of exaustion.) And another thing...what were you dreaming about?

Fael: Rice!

Thomas: (Figures.)

Thomas: What more?

Fael: Fate's sister.

Thomas: Oh....Huh?

Tia: Fate...you mean as in Fate?

Thomas: No Tia, he's talking about a person.

Tia: Oh!

Fael: That's right...I'll tell you guys how it was.

Fael's Dream

???: Geez, you sure eat a lot!

Fael: Maybe! When nobody is around, i dump etiquete and eat a lot.
???: Hihihi!

Suddenty, Fael closed his eyes, opening it again a second later, as if switching his "Dream" Persona to his "Reality" Persona.


Fael: You...

Fael: Testarossa? You mean Fate's sister? But...
Alicia: Now now, no need to panic, i'm still dead.

Fael: It's not it...didn't you...well....
Alicia: Get lost into time in space? Well, you can say that to my body.
Fael: I see...
Alicia: Don't worry, i didn't come here to blame you or anything, i came here to tell something else.
Fael: What?
Alicia: Take care of Fate for me! And tell her that even if we never met personally, tell that i always loved her.

Fael: H-hey! Alicia! Wait! (Damn...My Dream self is regaining control...)
Alicia: It was nice talking to you!


Fael: After that, i contined to eat my rice.

Thomas: Unbeliavable...So, are you going to say that once you meet Fate?

Fael: Of course, well...I still don't know how her reaction would be...so i better be careful on how i word it... (Speaking of Fate, i wonder if she already went under trial...)
Thomas: And you Tia, what were you dreaming about?

Tia: Pancakes!

**Music stops**


Thomas: ... (More food?)

Thomas: ...Forget i asked something...

Fael: (We better not mention food dreams...frustration is all over his face.)
Thomas: I have myself to blame for being hasty, let's rest a little before going to class.

Fael: Yeah.

School - Lilly and Marie's Room


Marie: *sniff* Yes, that's a promise.

Marie: I'll be here for you as well.

Marie: Shall we go now? Everyone is waiting for us.

[MagusDream]

School - Infirmary


Necrox: That reminds me... Freudia. When you were unconscious, did you saw something?

Freudia: Hmmm... I recognize seeing a crystal floating in a blank and white space. I think that a knight was inside it.

Necrox: ... Bingo. OK, let me explain.

BGM: Castle Oblivion


Necrox: When you all dream, you're not simply seeing an image while you sleep. You're giving birth to a world.

Freudia: A world?

Necrox: Yes. Dreams are more than simply illusions that you reveal at your sleep. At the Dream Realm, every dream is a world.

Freudia: Are you talking about the legends of a world that cannot be seen by open eyes?!

Necrox: ... The Dream Realm is a blank and white space. Maintaned by the existence of dreams, it can't be real unless people have these sweet images at night. Although the person feels that he's alone in the dream, it's thanks to the Realm that they can connect with each other. The vast majority of people ignore the existence of the possibility of the dreaming connection, but it's real.

Freudia: And that crystal...?

Necrox: It holds the Dream Sprite. A manifestation that rules over the Dream Realm and its responsible for keeping it safe. Yukari never told you, but there's a indestructible border that splits the Dream Realm from the Real World. If ever these two enter in conflict, the results are... well, let's say that there's no meaning for real and false.

Freudia: I never thought it was real. But how are we supposed to enter on it?

Necrox: It's a little hard on the beginning, but you have to dream of nothing. A blank dream is a ticket for entering. And I guess that's all. Any questions?

School - Lilly and Marie's Room


Lilly: OK. Oh, and Zetta. Behave yourself.

Just as she said that, Lilly thought on something important.


Lilly: Now that I think about it... how did Anna came here? It's a long way from the castle to the school...

Autumn Area - Abandoned Factory Quarter

((Time for beginning a rivalry!!))


Seraph: Guess we should go now, Giovanni. The authorities will handle this.

Giovanni: Aww, no fun! I wanna help too! Those guys need to learn their place!

???: So it was you who took our hunt away.

BGM: Terror adhaerens

Suddenly, Azrel and Jinheki came down from a roof. He looked up to Giovanni.


Azrel: You do know the rules of bounty hunting, I guess? Unless the hunt is truly spetacular, no one is allowed to interfere!

Giovanni: What are you talking about? I'm not a bounty hunter!

Azrel: Oh, a freelancer? That makes it worse. I hate when peolpe try to get my hunt.

Giovanni: Are you an idiot?! What about the people that would have been killed by those guys?!

Azrel: You mean "doing justice"? I don't think I'm the idiot here.

Giovanni: ...!!

Azrel: Listen. I do care about the people's safety, but I care about myself as well. I needed that hunt and you ruined it.

Giovanni: Everything... just for money...!!

Giovanni pointed his gunblade at Azrel, that pointed his gun in response. Jinheki held him back.


Jinheki: Azrel, look. Mercenaries from that Guild.

Azrel: Tch... just as I didn't wanted...

Jinheki: Let's just leave by now. Hunts appear here and there.

Azrel: ... Fine. We're leaving.

Giovanni: Wait!!

Azrel: Next time, you'll be filled up with holes.

Azrel and Jinheki jumped away. Giovanni still full of anger, was calmed down by Seraph.


Seraph: Ignore them. It doesn't worth the effort. For now, we have to find a place to stay in the meantime.

Giovanni: Grrrrr...

Flashback Arc - Chapter 1

((And we'll finally get to see Jasper fighting.))

Chapter 1

Part 5

Central Multilopolis - In front of a tall building


Amano: Ow my legs...Don't they know what an elevator is?

Amano: And the building was very empty...almost like a ruin...

Amano: I don't know if it's a coincidence but...maybe those things are behind it...

As soon as Amano mentioned the heartless, many more appeared.


Amano: Tch! You guys are tireless...

Amano: Urgh... (W-what's this feeling?)

Suddenly, the space got distorted, as if it was getting bent, when the distortion stopped, someone seemely appeared there.

Music - World Connected beyound the mist


Ash: Hm?

Amano: A guy?

Ash: It seems i ended up in a place diferent than usual...

Amano: B-Be careful!

Ash: ...

Some of the hearltess lunged at Ash F. Abenstein, seeking for his heart, he effortlessly dispatched the group with a single slash.


Amano: Ah...

Ash: Don't need to worry about me.

Amano: ...
Ash: Hmph!

In a blink, Ash took care of the remaining ones, then he looked at Amano.


Ash: Do you know where i am?

Amano: Same boat...

Ash: I see...

Amano: H-hey! Where are you going?

Ash: As i told you before, you don't need to worry before me.

Amano: B-but...
Ash: Besides...I work alone.

Amano: Bummer...

Ash: Till we meet again...

And then, the Lonely Young Knight left the place, Amano couldn't help but worry about, wondering if the place he came from was overtook by the heartless, while it was possible, the answer is no. What really happened is that Ash was caught in a spatial distortion and ended up in the Isolation City.


Amano: Be careful out there...

Central Multilopolis Streets

Music - DAMON


Mio: W-what is this?

Marie: T-this sensation...

Hugh: I-It's the same as "that" day...

Fael: Yeah...when we got attacked by that monster...

Barry: Monster...?

Jasper: I-it's coming...

After the Distortion stopped, several monsters appeared.


Hugh: Well, talk about coincidence, they appeared right in front of us.

Marie: This is not something to smile about...

Fael: Although...I'm happy to discover something related to "that" attack.

Mio: ....

Jasper: Well, they seem ready to devour us!

Hugh: Let's not lose time then...let's fill their stomach with punches!
Jasper: You're right!

Fael: (S-such confidence in his voice...Is this really Jasper? It's stranger...why can't i feel his emotions?)
Jasper: They are monsters that endanger this city...and it's up to us to quell their fury...
Monster: ROAAAAAAAAAAAAR!

Jasper: SHUT UP!

Music - The Sword that cleaves Evil Alpha 3

Jasper: And now listen...My name is Jasper Tsurugi! The Sword that smites evil! HERE I COME!

Jasper, in what would be a rare moment of his, pulled his sword, and then, it grew big in size, three time tall as he is, while it seems a bit umpratical, Jasper trained very hard to handle a sword of that size, so in this case, size don't really matter when you know how to handle it, being able to Dash with the speed of the flying clouds. ((Go figure, it something Sanger says in PxZ))

Jasper: Final Attack! Zankantou Ichimonji-Giri ((Diferent from Wodan's Version))

With a might battlecry, he slashed the beast in half, and the sheer air pressure the sword made with the ground knocked the other ones away, destroying the small buildings they hit.


Jasper: Nothing can withstand my Zankantou.

Hugh: A-awesome! I took this guy as the usual wimpy Jasper...but he can do it when he wants!

Marie: He's really strong!

Hugh: And reliable too...

Mio: (You're wrong...while he is pretty strong...he never uses that power against people...)

Barry: Everyone, split up and take a monster to kill, we can't slack off and leave this to Jasper!

Fael: Got it! I'll take the one that went to the left...

Hugh: I'll take the right! Follow me Mei!

Marie: Yes!

Jasper: .... (It's the same everytime...i can only pull my sword when it's a monster...)

Barry: You should stay still for now, we can take care of the rest.
Jasper: Understood.

Central Multilopolis

**Trembling City of Arisu plays**


Xiaomu: Well, that's about it.

Xiaomu: Okay Reiji, hand over my "nest egg"!

Reiji: Quit acting like you fought those guys on your own.

Reiji: Look, I'll give it back once we get back to HQ.

Xiaomu: Hold it.

Reiji: Hmm? What a surprise, you don't want it back?

Xiaomu: Not that, wait a second!

Reiji: I don't get it.

Reiji: ...Huh?

Xiaomu: Geez you're slow? Give the man a cigar.

<- He actually have a sprite with a cigar


Xiaomu: Weren't you the one feeling something wrong around here?

Reiji: Yeah. ...Something different than when They appear. But what?

Suddenly, the place got another distortion, once it stopped, weird transparent monsters appeared.


Reiji: Damn, Backup. But...

Reiji: Was that a Quake just now? It was nothing like what HQ said...

Xiaomu: Plus, I've never seen these things before.

Xiaomu: Go say hi to the newcomers for me please!

Both Reiji and Xiaomu get close to the newcomers


Reiji: They sure are unpleseant.

Reiji: In which case I'll greet them all...with this!

When Reiji shots his Magnum pistol Gold, the bullet passes right through the monster.


Reiji: What the-?!

Xiaomu The bullet went right through!

Xiaomu: Meaning this is a spiritual type without a physical body.

Xiaomu: Yo, Reiji! Quit using the cheap-ass ammo!

Reiji: Hey, unlike a certain someone, i'm ahead of the game. Already loaded the Anti-Spirit rounds.

Reiji: And what's this... weird feeling like they're not really here? Are they some new breed the Quake spawned?!

Reiji: And if we can't touch 'em, what can we do?

Xiaomu: Lemme point out that they're still leaving nice big footprints in the pavement.

Reiji: Meaning we can touch them...somehow.

Reiji: Xiaomu, if worst comes to worst we may have to pull out.

Xiaomu: God, this is so pathetic! I don't remember raising some weakling these last ten years!

Reiji: Shut up. You're walking a bit slow.
Xiaomu: Did it cross your mind that i'd stop walking that way if I could?

Reiji: What?! Don't tell me there's another Quake?!

Another quake happens right behind Reiji and Xiaomu, once it stopped, it revealed three mysterious people.

Music - Joking Motive

World Crossers Guild


Ragna: Lyzer, have you seen Celica?
Lyzer: That red haired girl? Nope. I didn't see her after the reunion early morning.

Ragna: Urgh...What that airhead went then?

School entrance


Masaki: Gah!

Mio: What's it Masaki?

Celica: Hi Guuuys!

Masaki: C-Celica? What are you doing here?

Kuro: I completelly forgot about her meow!

Celica: Well, i went for the Mess room for breakfast...and i lost my way...ehehehe...

Mio: Don't ehehehe me! You ended up here from the place you're supposed to live right? I know that place is big, but it has signs.

Kuro: (You think that'll help meow? Only a guided tour is a best chance, but the odds are low.)

Celica: Yeah, i walked here and there, and when i noticed, i was already outside, and when trying to find my way back to the guild, i ended up here and met you guys...coincidence?

Masaki: ....

Shiro: Unbeliavable, right Masaki?

Masaki: Quiet!!!

Mio: (And now we have a second Masaki....Just great....I didn't sign up for this!)

School - Lilly and Marie's Room


Marie: Hmmm....

Marie: Well, the logical answer would be teleporting...what do you think Zetta?
Zetta: Why are you asking me?

Marie: Give us your thoughts!
Zetta: Hmph...If i had to guess, they went through some kind of Dimensional Gate or something.

Marie: Dimensional....Gate? You mean like, the Crossgate that floats at the center of this city?

Music - Lost Heritage


From the window, they could see a little dot on the sky over the Central Multilopolis, but if one got close to it, would see it what it looked like a giant metal circle in the air, with some kind of blue void inside the circle.

Zetta: Maybe...I do have one in my world, but it's nothing like that portal.

Marie: There's still a lot we don't know about that gate, only that it takes us to the Endless Frontier. A World so close, yet so far...

Autumn Place - Abandoned Factory Quarter


Kail: 3...2...1...now

Rosa: You guys can stay in the guild if you want!

Kail: (I knew it.)

Rosa: We could exchange lots of info there.
Kail: I better stay quiet before i get hushed.

Rosa: But of course, if you really want to stay, you have to show work.
Kail: ....

Rosa: We have lots of friends in there as well, i'm sure you get along pretty well.
Kail: **Still waiting**

Rosa: And we have the best dumplings of the city~!!!

Kail: ...What?

School Infirmary

Music - The Child's Dream


Hugh: Well...I would ask, but i'm thinking having a Blank Dream is pretty rare, don't you guys think?

Fael: Yeah...I don't think i ever had one...

Tia: Can't say i had one either.

Thomas: Can't remember i had one...but i'm pretty sure i didn't either.

Fael: But i could try! Remenber when i said that i temporally took over my Dream self?

Hugh: Yes? What about it?

Fael: Well, if i could pull that again, i might be able to make my dream blank...although, i'll have a limited time.

Tia: So...are you sure this will work?
Fael: I have no idea.

Thomas: I knew you wouldn't...

Fael: But it's worth a try...so, the fastest way to fall asleep is...

Hugh: What? Wait...you don't mean...

Fael: HAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

Fael: Uuuuurgh...I'm blacking out....good night.... *faints*

Tia: *sweatdrop* Yeah...trying to use magic when exausted does that...pretty much the quicker way...

Hugh: But why it had to be that?

Thomas: Now now, at least he won't do it again (hopefully.) When he wakes up, Tia, make sure to rest well!

Tia: Got it!

Multilopolis Hi-Security Prison for Special Criminals

Music - [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVqRD1BTwKY]闇に息づく野望[/url]

Officer: Okay Miss Friday, the Prisioner are already in their cells.

Friday: Right...err, i know i already know the answer...but the prison allows visitors?
Officer: No, it would be too risky if the prisioners left their confinement, although, they are allowed a phone call once per day.

Friday: Just once eh?
Officer: Correct, here's the number if you want.

Friday: Ok, thanks. (I need to find that girl again and give this to her...)

Meanwhile, in an unknown location

???: I see, launch a Noise attack during early evening right? I don't see the point in one now.
???2: But, we need to colect more data on "her".
???: What? You mean that blue haired girl? Heh, i don't think we'll be needing it, i'll defeat her easy easy.
???2: I'm not talking about Tsubasa Kazanari.
???: Oh, you mean the one who looks like an idiot.
???2: Exactly, i still don't know if she'll accept her newfound power, so that's why i'm ordering you to launch Noise again.
???: Fine...But, why all of this?
???2: We owe this to Schirach, after all, she did her best in creat Noise, even though they are fake, since we can't just give her the Solomon's Cane.
???: It would be crazy if you did.
???2: So it's better to satisfy the one we are alliancing with giving information, right~?
???: You're the negotiator here, i don't get much of this stuff....but i digress, i'll do what you want.
???2: Can i count on you?
???: Sure thing!

Necrox: ... Oh, I forgot to tell him. The Dream Realm can only be entered at night. The maximum he's going to see is the crystal Freudia saw. My bad.

Freudia: ... That was your purpose, I suppose?

Necrox: I'm a little devilish, but that was unexpected.

School - Lilly and Marie's Room


Lilly: Well, the Teleporter's functions are... uhhh... well... you already know what it does so I'll scratch that...

Lilly: Maybe... is it connected to the school somehow...?

Autumn Area - Abandoned Factory Quarter


Seraph: Well, we have no choices.

Giovanni: Wait. I... don't want to go.

BGM: Intermezzo


Seraph: You're contradicting yourself there. After all, you're the one who helps people all the time.

Giovanni: I know... but the idea of being a hunter... I don't like it. Being locked to missions described by clients as many other are in danger... I'm sorry if I'm being rude or something to both, but I just don't get it right.

Seraph: Then, what are you going to do?

Giovanni: Huh?! W-W-What do you mean, Seraph?! A-Are you leaving me behind?!

Seraph: ... Yes.

Giovanni: Seraph...!!

Seraph: Listen. I understand your point, but I can't rely solely on instinct. I need info about everything possible. And if they're going to help us, I'll take that opportunity.

Giovanni: ...

Seraph: You have your reasons to be angry with me, I know. But do you have any idea of how we're going to do this?

Giovanni remained silent. He had no choice, other than taking their offer of joining the World Crossers Guild. But that only made him remember of his painful past.


Seraph: I expected your silence. And, as I may remind you, I'm your superior. I promised to him that I would see you safe. We're going to the guild, understood?

Giovanni: ... Can we just go there already?

Seraph: I see that you finally understood. Well, we will gladly join the guild.

Giovanni: (Gladly, huh? I'll use this time wisely. Maybe I won't be able to do it, but I'm quite certain that they are here...)

Central Multilopolis Crossing


Silvy: Yup, here's what some people call "The Crossing of Tragedies"

Mana: Let me guess, it's because many people died here?

Silvy: Nah! Here is where events of any kind can happen, most of them are bad, so that's why it's called that.

Kael: Scared?

Mana: N-Not at all.

Uni: Even though i wasn't exactly in this crossing, i nearly suffered a tragedy as well...

Kael: ...

Uni: I know...I should stop remenbering it...

Kael: Not that, are you guys feeling something?

Shu: A sensation that makes you sick? Yeah, i do.

Music - Shaking Heart Alchemist


It wasn't a quake this time, but it was the mere presence of beings known as Eisnts that caused that, they are monsters that want to make the living world a "Place of Silence.", while they were deafeated in Masaki's world, these Eisnts came from the Endless Frontier.


Shu: (Hmm...They don't look like the cloned Einsts in my world, they are the real deal...)

Uni: W-who are these creatures?

Kael: I don't know, but just standing close to them makes me want to puke...for real.

Sergios: Urgh...My head hurts...

Shu: Fight their influence, if you don't want to become one of them.

Mana: Hm?

Shu: Do what i'm telling you and you'll be fine, strong willed people won't be dominated by them...

Kael: Y-You know these monsters?

Shu: But of course, they are from my world.

Uni: And let me guess, they were destroyed, but ended up being alive again in this world...am i right?

Shu: Yes...

Uni: It's getting easier to deduce stuff now....so, shall we fight?

Mana: What do you think?

Music - Steel Beowulf Version Passion


Silvy: Alright everyone...

Kael: Follow my lead!
Everyone cept Shu and Silvy: Roger!

Silvy: H-Hey, i'm the veteran here...

Uni: Sorry, but when Kael's around, he's our commander!

Mana: Really? Then i'm counting on you Lt. Kael!

Kael: Lt. Kael? Okay then, Uni, Mana, you know what to do, Sergios, Silvy, Mr. Shu, let's get close.

Sergios: Got it! Time to test these out! Pocket Dimension - Open! Ignition Armor - Equip!

Silvy: Let's see how much better you got since we last met Kael.

Kael: I'm looking foward as well!

As the attacker group got close to the Eisnts, they started to shot beams at the team, but the beams were shot down by Mana's rapid firing and sharp aim, something that impressed Uni.


Uni: Wow, they were such small targets...

Mana: This gun isn't just for show.

Uni: This rifle isn't either.

Music - Uni's theme Victory ver.

Uni: Take this! Exen Launcher B-Mode! Hiya!

As if in involuntarily, Uni spun her rifle and quickly set it up to B-Mode, she held it with one arm and shot many beams at the Eisnts.


Kael: Nice one Uni, now it's our turn! BOOST!

Grazing through more Eisnt projectiles, Kael enveloped himself in flames and took flight, and the he concentrated said fire in Galatine, then he started to fall, and dealt a heavy flaming slash, obliterating the monster.


Silvy: Too Slow! Way too slow!

Silvy moved so fast that it seemed that the beams was passing through her, but it was actually the after images, she got between a flock of Eisnts and quickly dispatched them with slashes of energy blades she can create with her arms.


Sergios: My turn! FANG KNUCKLE! GO!

Merging his gauntles into one rocket fist, Sergios shot it at the Einst, with each hit, it was like a bit, he finished with a stomp from his Ignition Boots, using the shockwave to deal with more Eisnt.


Shu: Now, let's put to test once more, the power this world gave me.

Music - Dark Prison ver. F


Shu: Graviton Cannon, Fire!

Creating a single sphere, Shu shot it at the air, it multiplied into many ones, they dropped at once, smashing the Eisnts with the gravity.


Shu: Heh! It is still fascinating why i can use it after all.

Silvy: Wow Mr. Shirakawa, you still got it!

Shu: Flattery won't help us now you know!

Silvy: Pretty blunt, but you're right, we still have some stuff to deal with.

Music - Curry Drive

Autumn Place - Abandoned Factory Quarter


Rosa: Well, it is settled then, Kail, let's take them to the guild.

Kail: Okay, you guys probably know that, but it's on the Spring Zone! Follow us.

School - Lilly and Marie's Room


Marie: I guess the only real way to know is to check that place for ourselves.

Marie: Let's do it when classes are over, okay?

School - Infirmary


Hugh: Weird...only at night?

Thomas: Why is it weird?

Hugh: I mean, there's people sleeping at any second, no mattering what time is it...

Thomas: Maybe because it is also a world, it's probably doing a Translational movement.

Hugh: You mean that place actually follows the night?

Tia: When you put it like that...

Thomas: It is a possibility.

Hugh: I....rest...you honor...

Suddenly, Ayame enters the room.


Ayame: So, you guys are here.

Hugh: No...we are at the street corner....what is it?

Ayame: Does someone knows a guy named Masaki?

Thomas: Oh, i do, i met him yesterday when fighting the Noise, what is it? Can you bring him here?

Ayame: Right, i'll do it.

Hugh: Who's Masaki?

Thomas: Someone that got drifted into this world.

Hugh: I see...so that didn't stop completelly...

Thomas: Yeah...

School - Infirmary


Necrox: Wow, I better watch out very oftenly... Thomas, how did you knew that?

Freudia: So, the time flux between both worlds are different. That's why we can only go at night.

Necrox: Exactly... also, how much of our talk did you heard, Koishi?

BGM: Sabat plays here too


Koishi: Wow, you found me fast!

Necrox: You may be hidden using your power, but I can feel whenever you're near.

Koishi: Hihihihihihi~!

Freudia: How she did that?

Necrox: She uses our subconscious. With that said, she can be easily ignored by us.

Freudia: Surprising...

Koishi: Anyway, shouldn't you all go to class? You know, even after those beatings down there, Sister is on patrol.

Necrox: Damn, I forgot about that mind-reading stroller! OK, I'm going to class! See you there!!

Necrox slammed the door and ran (literally) to the classroom. He knew that Satori's punishments were... undescribable.


Koishi; Wow, is my Sister scary like that? The maximum she would do is insert a bad memory here and there... what's bad on that?

Freudia: ... (I will remain silent.)

School - Lilly and Marie's Room


Lilly: OK then. Let's go. I suppose Satori's on patrol for students commiting truancy...

School - Entrance

Mao, Laharl and Etna were about to leave the school. Laharl was grumbling a lot which bothered both.


Flonne: LAHARL!!! ETNA!!!

Laharl and Etna: ...

Mao: A-Almaz?!

Flonne: Why did you left me behind?! I wanted to see Magio too, you know!!

Etna: Weeeeell... he wasn't there.

Flonne: What?

Laharl: And Flonne... where's my sister?

Flonne: Umm... she said she would go to the Spring Zone or something...

Laharl: And you just let that happen?! Are you an idiot?! Do you really want me to kill you?!

Etna: Now, now, Prince. She can handle herself.

Mao: Wait a second... you came with Beryl?!

Raspberyl: Don't ask me. I was supposed to be alone.

Almaz: I followed her! I didn't wanted to stay with the Princess!

Mao: Almaz, she's your wife now. You can't simply leave her behind.

Almaz: I know, I know! But-

Almaz: Wait a minute... who are you and what you did with Mao?!

Mao: You idiot!! I am Mao!!

Raspberyl: Mao finally surrendered to delinquency... ah, like a dream that became true...

Mao: ...
