It was Sunday again and through vigorous training, Kaede was able to learn how to use her ancient angel magic.

"Good work Kaede" Shiro praised after another day of training.

"Thanks Sensei!" she said. Shiro smiled. After that Emi approached them.

"Shiro..." she began.

"What is it?" he asked.

"Look." Emi pointed at the sky. The color of it was changing from an orange color to sky-blue. "It's dissipating."

"Yeah it is. We should go to the edge of the of town" Shiro suggested.

"we should, but let's go tomorrow. It looks to me that Kaede is tired" Emi replied. Shiro looked at Kaede, whose eyes were slowly closing.

"Good idea." Shiro led the sleepy Kaede back to their room. He laid her down on her bed.

"Sensei" he heard her say with smile on her sleeping face. Shiro smiled and also went to bed. When he awoke, Emi was standing in his room.

"Emi, why are you here?" Shiro asked.

"We have to go, remember? If we don't hurry then you're mother is going to patch up the barrier" Emi replied.

"I guess you're right." Shiro moved over to Kaede and shook her a little. Kaede's eyes opened and she looked at Shiro.

"Sensei? What's going on?" she asked.

"We have to go somewhere, okay?" Shiro replied. She nodded.

"Okay Sensei." Kaede got out of bed, but she was still half asleep.

"Do we need to bring Kaede?" Shiro asked.

"We should bring everyone and the house" Emi replied.

"I don't think we need to do that. Let's just check it out first and see what to do from there" Shiro suggested. Emi looked at him doubtfully then sighed. "Alright, bring Riven too." Shiro looked at her, surprised, then nodded. "C'mon Kaede."

"Yes Emi-nee" Kaede said as she and Emi left the room. Shiro made his way to Riven's room and opened the door.

"Hey Riven, I..." Shiro paused when he saw Riven in her underwear. Ena had a large smile on her face. Riven's face tuned red.

"Shiro, would you kindly leave?" Riven said, holding back her anger.

"Yeah." Shiro left the room and closed the door.

'I'm going to get slapped!'  Shiro thought. He waited outside the room until Riven opened the door.

"Hey Shiro, what did you need me for?" Riven asked.

"Emi, Kaede, and I are going to check out the dissipating barrier around us, so we're wondering if you'd join us" Shiro replied.  Riven looked at him.

"Of course! I'd go anywhere with you!" She smiled. Shiro blinked at her.

"Let's go then." Riven nodded. The two of them caught up with Kaede and Emi soon after.

"Ready to go?" Emi asked. Shiro nodded.

"Yeah, let's go." The four of them walked down the street through town until they reached the school. The barrier was behind the school so they had to walk around it. When they reached it, they saw the dissipating barrier and the world behind it. The barrier was almost gone, but they couldn't cross it just yet. Shiro also spotted his mother accompanied by a girl with long, bleached hair, red eyes, who also wore an inversed version of the angel school's uniform. Shiro growled.
