One month later

On a stormy rainy day, footsteps follow an individual as they stay to the shadows when they along with another person cut down two people from being taken by the life fibers.

"You dustrags are going down!" The first shouts cutting through the suits.

"Burst Shock."

Two bolts of electricity blast from their hand causing the pair of clothing to explode as they take notice of the individuals they saved.

"You're that elite four chick and AJ's Brother!" Mataro says in total shock.

Nonon sighs. "Well, if it isn't the slacker's brother."

"And if you could mind not staring at her nearly nude body, perverts." The four beings look up seeing many covers descending on their location as Thomas rolls his eyes.

"Knock a couple down, and a bunch more pop up." Jakuzure sighs.

Thomas hides behind a wall. "We need to move."

"Way ahead of ya, hot stuff." Thomas looks back seeing him crawling through the sewers as Nonon follows after him with Thomas joining as well as sealing the entrance.

"So, you've been on your own for the past month?" Thomas asks.

"Impressive considering your bowl-cuts brother. Guess surviving runs in the family, huh, kid?"

"The names Mataro."

Thomas hums. "Heh. All right, our rides here. Pack up." He says as the two look to a hidden camp in the sewers.

Northern Kanto, Susukigahara

"Come on! Hurry! Keep moving! There's a chopper waiting for you just over the hill!" Sanageyama orders his men and the refugees.

"Shit, they've already caught up?" Jack says watching, and hearing the screams from nearby,

"I hope you hold up, Ripcord." Sanageyama says readying a kendo stick.

"Try to keep up kid."

"Blade Regalia Mark III!"

"Through the forges of iron I burn and am reshaped blade work Prison. Dawn of the shining sword!"

He is submerged in a dark cloud of what smells like ash and coal before he glows a bright color and his clothes are replaced with a bright silver flowing coat. Embezzled pants covered in silver and gold, his shirt seemingly made of a fluid style gold and a silver crown made of dozens upon dozens of miniature swords. Jack is able to defend himself against the covers as he notices Sanageyama struggling when his suit rips apart and he's defenseless. He's surrounded by the kendo club who ask him to retreat. Jack grabs Sanageyama and gets him to the helicopter as they along with students and some of the other Elite Four watch as the covers spit out the weapons of those taken.

"Sorry I bailed on you." The delinquent says sadly.

Gamagori stands next to his friend. "Even though they were hoods, they were honorable, be proud of them."

Jack scoffs. "We won't last long continuing like this."

Osaka, Nudist Beach Secret Base

"Get these refugees to the barracks on the double!" Gamagori orders as they land near the Nudist Beach base.

"How you guys doing? Was it hella rough out there for you, too?" Jakuzure asks.

Sanageyama nods solemnly. "Yeah."

"So you found Mankanshoku's little brother."

Thomas nods. "He and his buddies were in the sewers. Clever rodents I'll give em that. Any word on AJ or Tomoko, Jack?"
