"Ugh, to think that Vomit Boy ruined my fresh pair of shoes with his Vomit..."
Inside a very large aircraft carrier, that seemed to be holding a ton of teenagers, who all looked either nervous, excited, or other unsure feelings, a certain Blonde Brawler, named Yang Xiao Long, was in the middle of walking through the crowd of said emotional teens, wearing a very annoyed expression, because of the vomit on her shoes, and was no doubt looking for something to clean them

'Man this place is so insanely big, where are the bathrooms?'
Though before Yang could get annoyed even more while getting even more lost, she heard a certain familiar voice, which made her look at the direction of the sound and gasps in surprise

"「-Maybe I could injure myself so horribly that I can be labeled as a cripple and not go to this school, hmm, though if I did that, I would definitely catch my Mother's full attention, and that wouldn't be good for my-」"
Kumagawa Misogi, who was also inside the same airship, was in the middle of very deeply thinking, enough to make his smile small as he bangs his head against the window, though before he could continue having such deep thoughts, he was immediately interrupted by Miss Xiao Long grabbing him into a tight bear hug and lifted him up happily

"Hi There! I Never Thought I Would Be Able To See You Again!~"
Yang was genuinely happy to meet the same person who was able to change her views on things and not let her waste her life on something so unimportant

"「WHOA! A Blonde That Isn't My Mom Is Hugging Me, Best Day Ever!~」"
Kumagawa was honestly slightly surprised to meet one of her Minuses Candidate so early, though it wasn't a bad thing, especially since he gets a hug from it, to which made the Blonde Brawler laugh from such a silly dramatic reaction

"Hehe, I must say, the talk we had last time, it really helped me, I honestly mean that, I never realized how much of a burden and headache it was to keep thinking the way I did, so thank you, thank you so very much for helping me~..."
Yang hugs him tighter, to show off how much she appreciates for what Misogi did for her, and how much happier it made her

"「So you're saying that you took my advice to heart?」"
Kumagawa tilted his head in curiosity, to which the Sun Dragon responded with a nod

"Mhm, I did and because of that, it changed my way of life a lot, my shoulder feels lighter, my emotions are no longer crazy, and I think even my family, that I still have, are much more happier that I'm around more and not obsessing with my Mom~"
Yang wore a small warm smile as she held the Good Loser's head close to her chest, softly petting him

"It's no exaggeration to say that you literally saved me from wasting and losing everything that I had, I'm incredibly grateful that you exist to help me see that..."
Yang meant every word she said, though in all honesty, all her thankfulness and gratitude made the Minus sigh in slight disappointment

'「I mean, I did want her to forget about her Mother, I accomplished that much, though I did failed in making her negative about it, ugh, I lose once again」'
Kumagawa wasn't too upset to see Xiao Long very upbeat and more chill, but her happy and positive attitude would make it harder for him to make her a Minus, but he can deal with that, breaking and manipulation was his specialty after all

"But even though I'm happy to see you again, I'm still surprised to see you are here of all places, if I knew that you wanted to become a Hunter, we could've trained and fought together before arriving at Beacon~"
Yang quickly puts him back down on the floor, but still had a arm around his shoulder and continue to attach herself, no doubt had bonded with him and grew closer to him

"「I'm not here to be trained to be one of you 'Hunters', I am nothing more than a simple guest since my Mother worries about leaving me home alone while she works...」"
Even though Kumagawa was good at not showing off his real emotions, most of the time, he still couldn't help but feel annoyed by being trap here in Beacon Academy, not only for having no interest here, but having his chance to search for more candidate for what he has planned for the future be completely ruined
