Devilwatch: The False Messiah (Highschool DxD x Cardfight Vanguard)

A Royal Battle

<London, Cinder-Ella Theatre>

Ella: *claps hand* Alright, I think that's good for today, girls.

We see Ella finish coaching her female dancers as they sits down and take the moment to breathe calmly. Ella then sits at a nearby chair and whipped the sweat off of her forehead as she breathes heavily.

"???": Here you go, mother.

Ella look to her right to see a boy with blonde hair mixed with pink highlights offering a drink.

Ella: *took it* Thank you, Peter. *unscrew the bottle cap* I gotta say, reopening this theatre do bring back good memories of me dancing in a big stage. But now I'm the one who's in charge of this place, and somehow make a living out of it by teaching everyone how to ballet dancing once again. *starts gulping*

Peter: I don't really know much about ballet dancing, other than you and big sister always do that for a living. But I can say this, you two really are gorgeous.

Ella: *finish drinking* I appreciate your honesty, Peter. *screw up the cap* I guess your father isn't the only person who use that word to compliment me and your sister.

As Ella and Peter continues with their conversation, a girl walks in and interrupts their conversation. The girl wears a training suit and had the same identical look at Ella, minus that her hair is longer and has inverted color pattern with her base color being pink while her sliver of highlights being silver.

Istar: On a scale of 1 to 10, how was the training for today, mother?

Ella: *thinking* Hmm... I'll give it a 7 out of 10. I think the only problem with the training is that everyone couldn't control their balance. *confident pose* -Just as I told you and everyone else, your balance is important on how you make your move.

Ishtar: *understanding* I see. I guess I should ask Sumire for advice on how to balance my body.

Ella: Remember, Istar. Patience is key.

Moving out of London...

As we move back, we see Hayato walking out of the house with him munching a piece of bread.

Hayato: *blocked eyes using right hand* Arg-! It's to damn sunny for some reason. *nomming on bread*

As Hayato reach an intersection, Claire was leaning on the wall with her phone in her hand. "Claire?" Claire heard Hayato's voice and look to her left to see him finish his bread.

Claire: M-Morning, Hayato.

Hayato: What are doing here?

Claire: Uhm... Waiting for you. *reach into pocket* I'm actually want to give you this as thank you gift for saving me.

Claire shows Hayato a vanguard card, the card it self is Holy Dragon, Sanctuary Guard Horizon. "Wait, you're giving this to me?" Hayato asked as he took Horizon off of Claire's hand.

Claire: Of course. -I mean, you're the only Dawn of Horizon around here.

Hayato: Quick question. *took out Sanctuary Guard* Is the Dawn of Horizon referring to me, or Sanctuary Guard?

Claire: It's actually referred to the person who wields Sanctuary Guard.

Hayato: Oh, I guess it's like a prophecy thing for swordsman. *put Sanctuary Guard and Horizon away*

Claire: Hey, can I ask a favor?

Hayato: Yeah, sure. What do you want?

Claire: Can you and your father come over to my place after school? My uncle wants to discuss something about you two.
