(At Base)

"So, Tsukishima, you said that some of the weapons are restricted from Military use. So what do we take this as? A plan that someone was putting into action?" Kageyama asked. "Maybe so. I'm only taking a guess, but what if the person that lived in that house knew? Like, beforehand." Hinata asked, walking up behind Kageyama. "Or, they saw the signs and were preparing for the Calamity." Tsukishima sighed.

As the trio walked over to Daichi, a voice called out behind them. It was Yamaguchi. "Hey Yamaguchi, do you think the people who lived in that house knew about everything?" Hinata asked, looking up at Yamaguchi. "Well, that's the theory. But we never know." Yamaguchi sighed, rubbing the back of his neck as he sat down in a seat.

"What's wrong?" Daichi asked, slightly startling Yamaguchi. "It's nothing." Yamaguchi sighed, looking down in his lap.

"Yamaguchi, if anything's wrong, you know you can talk to me, right? I'm always here if you need anything." Daichi smiled, patting Yamaguchi's shoulder.

"Thank you, Daichi-san."

"Asahi-san, are you okay?" Noya asked, looking at a hunched-over Asahi. "Y-Yeah, I'm fine." Asahi smiled softly. "What are you doing down here? You're usually asleep by now." Asahi asked. "I couldn't sleep." Noya said awkwardly. "Oh, I see." Asahi said.

"Asahi-san, can I ask you something?" Noya asked, seeming somewhat nervous.

"Sure, is something wrong?" Asahi said, scooting close next to Noya. "How would you feel if a guy liked you?" Noya whispered, nervous about Asahi's answer.

"Well, it depends. There is someone I like, and they're a guy." Asahi smiled faintly. "W-Who is it?" Noya asked, curious about the person.

Asahi looked Noya dead in the eye before answering.

"It's you, Noya. It's always been you."
