It was a few days after Valentine's Day, and peace was felt throughout Soukai City, with the volunteers cleaning up the roads of petals and banners being hung down from the stores. The blonde boy saw all this happen in front of his eyes, as he wanted to be a good samaritan and clean up alongside other people, leading to him bonding with other people even when they just met each other.

It helps that he was also mute so they sympathized with him even more, even when he didn't want to be treated as 'special'.

"Oh you're back!" Kiana stated, seeing the boy return to the dorm with sweat dripping down his forehead. The boy could only smile as his response, as he went ahead to prepare for dinner for the team alongside Mei. He still had a lot to learn, and Mei seemed like a great cooking teacher to go for.

. . . . .

"Did you find the target?"

"We spot him. We'll grab him by surprise."

"Good. We cannot let them know that we took him."

"They'll know by tomorrow, won't they?"

"They won't suspect us first. F-Alpha are at the circuit breaker."

". . . Okay. Let's go."

Two figures dangled on a rope they tied to the roof, invisible not just by the night sky, but also from their invisibility armour they wore from head to toe, descending down to the window where a specific boy's room was. Their thoughts were full of revenge, wanting to do whatever it took to take the boy and do many sadistic experiments and torture onto him for what he had done.

Meanwhile

Max was just writing in his diary of the events that occurred during the day. It wasn't much, just him doing errands for the teachers, since he had too much free time, before he was brought to spar against Fu Hua, ending in his ancestor's victory. The boy had much to learn, but then again, she had too long of an experience for him to even try to catch up in the first place. He was still wearing his Battlesuit, since he felt a bit too lazy on wearing his casuals.

'And done,' he thought, smiling softly to himself, before a small frown appeared soon after. He just remembered that they were unable to get him another weapon as well, since it seemed like whatever weapon he toucheth, it breaketh, garnering him the title: Weapon Violator.

That surely raised flags all over the school, protecting their precious weapons away from his (allegedly) destructive hands, which the boy responded with his hands deep in his pockets.

To recap what happened to them, the sword he used against the giant boar Honkais was frozen brittle and broke, the P90 and Five Seven were completely squished clean by one of the boars, his Gram Type 1 was thrown out in favour of Gram Type 2, which burned out immediately the moment he Excalibur-ed the Herscherr and the giant zombie. Now he has no weapon to utilise.

The boy felt slightly saddened, before feeling hopeful that he might be able to get one if he were to be in his best attitude, he might get one sooner.

Suddenly, the lights went out. The boy looked around, trying to process what happened, before hearing footsteps outside his room.

"Hey, why the sudden blackout?!" He heard Kiana exclaim outside.

That was the last thing he heard before he felt a cloth on his mouth and nose and an arm on his throat. A sweet smell wafted into his nose, and the boy knew what it was immediately.

'Chloroform!'

Elbowing the side of his attempt kidnapper, he used the opportunity to run out of his room, despite feeling dizzy, only for his arm to be grabbed by something he couldn't see in the dark. He felt a fist coming into swift contact to his face, causing him to fall to the floor. However, he was still conscious, as he performed a spinning move with his legs, catching the kidnappers' legs and causing them to fall alongside him, before the boy stood up once again and burst the door open, feeling himself getting weaker ever so slightly.
