(in Anna's dream house)

Shiuzka (while sitting on a sofa): I never expected to see you again Anna.

Anna (walking to the opposite sofa): I know but I'm happy to see you again.

Shizuka (crossing her legs): Same here. By the way, congrats on your relationship.

Anna: Thank you but you don't sound that happy a bit.

Shizuka: Well I am jealous. You took someone I wanted to be with more than what my parents made me be engaged to.

Anna (leaning on the sofa): Sorry about that but you heard what he said right?

Shizuka (after sighing): I did and it surprised me.

Anna: Because you didn't know.

Shizuka: Before we get distracted even more you're here to ask me about the fuzzy visions you saw after your battle?

Anna: Was it a warning?

Shizuka: That's what I think because that never happens to me. I think when you get close to one of those fuzzy visions it will reveal what you saw.

Anna (after sighing): That's a bit annoying.

Shizuka (after Anna stands): Are you leaving?

Anna: Yeah. I have to wake up soon before someone worries.

Shizuka (bowing on one knee after standing): Safe travels. Until our next meeting my Vampire Queen.

Anna (in front of a door): Why would you bow towards your reincarnation?

Shizuka (look at Anna): Even though you're my future self. Here we're just two different people. Your Anna the Vampire Queen while I Shizuka decide to be one of your followers and guardian.

Anna (while turning around): Excuse me.

Shizuka: What I'm saying is the truth. Yukimaru is your guardian for the living, Sabrina is the guardian of your demon side and I'm the guardian of your soul.

Anna: Its a bit weird having three type of guardians.

Shizuka (after the door opens on its own): Looks like our chat has come to a end milady.

Anna (while leaving): I'll try to visit you more if possible Shizuka.

Shizuka (after standing): I'll like that.

(next day morning medical room)

Anna (in her mind after opening her eyes while lying on her back): I forgot I'm not in my room.

Sabrina (spirit form (standing next to Anna's bed)): Good morning Anna.

Anna (sitting up wearing her pyjamas): How long have you been there?

Sabrina: Not for too long. I came here to see how your backs doing.

Anna (rubs Keith's head after noticing him sleeping on the edge of the bed while on a chair wearing his pyjamas): What happened yesterday? The only thing I remember was the pain on my back.

Sabrina: While Keith carried you to the medical room you passed out from the shadow poison that continues to spread on your back. David cut your scar a bit to use a liquid antidote to remove it. Once everything was done Keith asked Yoruichi to change your clothes.

Anna: So that was the pain that woke me up for a moment.

Keith (after opening his eyes while sitting up when Anna moved her hand away): Morning.

Anna: Did you sleep well?

Keith (stretching): I did. How about you?

Anna: I slept great.

Sabrina: Her back healed and all the poison is gone.

Keith: That's good.

Yurei (while appearing near Keith): Everyone making their way to the meeting room.

Anna (getting out of bed at the same time Keith stands up): We should get change quickly to arrive on time.

Sabrina: Instead of putting your uniform on. I have a better idea of what you should wear.

(meeting room)

Anna (walking in with Keith after the door opens): Sorry for keeping you waiting.

When everyone looked at Anna they saw her wearing a black middle-length corset dress that's long at the back but had shoulder-off long loose sleeves with an open back, three baby pink bats in the middle of the corset and a baby pink outline on the top and bottom edge. Black middle-length gloves that hook around her middle finger with a baby pink bat on the end, short black leggings and black middle-length shoes that have a strap on her ankle with a baby pink bat on one side.

Yukimaru (bowing after standing): Thank you for coming back Vampire Queen.

Anna (in her mind walking to her seat while Keith follows behind): A bit extra. (after sitting in her seat) So have you made a decision about what we talked about yesterday?

Yukimaru (after sitting down): We have. We all agree to be your allies in the war against the Shadow King. This also means if the military turns against you then we'll just protect you.

Anna: But wouldn't that make you all traitors?

Makoto: It's best to protect our family instead of being enemies.

Anna: Of course you know I won't do anything to make enemies with the military. However, if they do want to fight then I won't hold back.

Yoruichi: Don't worry we know what we're getting ourselves into.

Yurei (in Keith's mind): We're lucky to have good people on our side.

Sabrina (in Keith's mind): That's because they don't want to hurt their sweet little sister.

Keith (in his mind standing near Anna's chair wearing his battle outfit): True.

Yukimaru: So Anna I'll leave this meeting in your hands.

Anna: Thank you. (after clearing her throat) While having a private conversation with Yukimaru I gave him a book containing information about what my team has gathered through our travels. If I'm correct you're making copies right now?

Yukimaru: We're making digital and paper versions so everyone can have access to it.

Renji: What type of information?

Anna: Information that involves when the shadow creatures enter our world.
