The sun rises above the towering skyscraper and apartments in New York, spilling its bright light into Nikko's apartment, yet waking up no one. The light shines throughout the apartment, revealing many family members and friends of Nikko, then revealing Nikko and Alice hugging on the couch last. Shelby can be seen sitting on a chair by the window, with a blanket over her back while she sips a cup of tea, reminiscing and thinking about life and everything up until now. "Huh, it's felt like a lifetime ever since I met Nikko, you son of a gun you are quite the person" she says to herself and takes another sip of tea. Slowly people starts to wake up, but drowsy and still almost asleep from a long night partying, some starts making their way back home while leaving things back for Nikko, some others going straight back to sleep. Some minutes pass and Nikko wakes up, he gently slides under Alice and puts her on the couch, then he walks over to Shelby and takes a seat next to her.

Shelby: yesterday was really the party huh?

Nikko: I didn't know people could get that wild...

Shelby: better get used to it cuz' there will be another party and many more haha

Nikko: aawwww, hmpf you people are overworking me

Shelby: hahaha whatever, did you enjoy it at least?

Nikko: hell yeah, finally seeing family and friends after god knows how long was really nice

Shelby: for you information you completed the trials in almost a year here

Nikko: that long? Yeesh

Shelby: what the f***? On average it took the other knights a good 5 or even 10 years to complete the trials

Nikko: what about Xatron?

Shelby: took him 5 years

Nikko: ....w-wait and he's stronger than me?

Shelby: at the moment yes but not by far, you'd be able to be him with your strength you have right now

Nikko: awesome!

Shelby: anyway want a cup of tea?

Nikko: no thank you, so what're you going to do today?

Shelby: you mean what will we do today~

Nikko: oh for f*** sake

Shelby: I'm kidding I'm kidding haha, so first we're going to go meet some people you knew and second I am going to be officially knighting you into the knight's of god, then third will be your knighting party

Nikko: oh! I thought I already was officially a knight of god

Shelby: nope not officially

Nikko: well that does make sense yeah, how long until we go start the day off?

Shelby: in about an hour, I want to wait until Alice wakes up

Nikko: I can wake her up

Shelby: no no let the girl get some rest, she's been worrying about you everyday let her rest

Nikko: o-oh okay, I haven't gotten used to that

Shelby: gotten used to what?

Nikko: having someone worry about me, or at least know that someone is worrying about me

Shelby: really?

Nikko: yeah...back then either people would leave me alone, say good things about me behind my back and talk about me to other people and never say anything to me...

Shelby: wow...that's...that's sad, that's really sad I'm sorry

Nikko: yeah...it's cool though, I'm used to it
