{Shiva Learning Institution, Arifureta}
Taiyou sat himself down and opened his textbooks. The end of year exams were coming up and Taiyou wanted to do a reasonable amount of studying before going to his side hobby of hunting DragonFruit members. "Okay class" the homeroom teacher said "Today were introducing a new student into class". A girl walks in wearing a white coat, she had pale skin and jet black hair. "Good morning everyone" the girl said "My name is Ryoko Emily". The whole class is murmuring "Who is this girl" "Why isn't she in proper school uniform" "she's kinda cute tho". "Settle down class" the homeroom teacher says "You see, Ryoko is here on very important business. She's one of the very few representatives for Shiva Learning Institutions in Japan. She's here to monitor our behaviour and academic performance as a school, so I expect you all to act on your best behaviour". She smiles and starts to walk towards her seat.

The students start heading out for lunch. Taiyou feels someone tap on his shoulder, he turns around to see his classmate, Mikaki. "What's up?" Taiyou asks Mikami. "So what's going on with you and the new girl" Mikami asks, "What do you mean?" Taiyou replies. Mikami looks surprised "Oh, well she was staring at you throughout the entire bio lesson, I think she has a thing for you" Mikami says while walking off. Taiyou's turns around to try and find the girl, but she's nowhere to be seen. Taiyou feels as if he should go consult this person to the rest of the group. He makes his way to the Conspiracy Theorist Club room, but suddenly a hand comes out of an empty classroom and drags Taiyou in. "Ow what the he..." Taiyou is shocked to see who was standing in front of him. Wearing new clothing, but still the same evil person she was a year ago, "Hello Taiyou" Aoi says. Taiyou was confused for many reasons. After ShivaCorp learned that Yoshisawa Aoi was working for DragonFruit, she was deleted from the schools database and removed from her families existence, not to mention the more important factor that Taiyou was worried about, she's supposed to be dead. "How are you here?" Taiyou asks, "Wow, not even a hello back?" Aoi says condescendingly. Aoi begins to smile "Back during our little adventure in the Shiva Satellite, I gave you codes that let you enter the hunk of metal on the condition that your consciousness would die if you died in the virtual world. Did you honestly think I gave myself the same codes?". Taiyou begins to clench his fist, "Why are you here?" He asks firmly. "Hehe" Aoi giggles "I'm here for the same reason you are, the new girl...". Taiyou is caught by this information "Who is she?" He asked, "She's a member of the ShivaCorp strike team, a nasty bunch who's primary goal is to wipe out all witches" Aoi explains. Taiyou instantly thought of the people he saw in Black Light District, the children and families who lived there. Aoi continues to explain "Her fighting capabilities are way out, it puts DragonFruit members at risk, my job is to eliminate her before that happens". Taiyou starts to think, he doesn't agree with Aoi's mentality, but when her actions could save the innocent people he saw in Black Light District, would it be worth the risk of letting her continue with her mission?. Taiyou notices that she has a Blazefire Saber XV on her waist, a very similar weapon to the one she used back in the virtual world. Something seemed different however, there was some sort of extra put into it, Taiyou thought it may be a gem, but he looked closer. It was too refined to be a gem, and it almost seemed murky, something incased in glass, something red. Taiyou reached out for the sword, Aoi instantly smacks it away "No touching" She says "I had to have this thing custom made to be used as an actual weapon. It's expensive y'know". Taiyou pulls his arm back "Then why use a physical one, why not use a digital version. Also what is that thing you put in it". Aoi begins to laugh "Let's just say, it has to do with a comrade of mine's power", "Wait a minute" Taiyou tries to catch her but it's too late. Aoi uses her Teleportation abilities to get out of the room. Taiyou is very confused, the more answers he received the more questions he gave himself. Taiyou exits the room. Suddenly, the new girl, Ryoko Emily, pops up in front of him, "Jeez... sorry, you gave me quite a fright back there. Can I help you with anything?". Emily smiles "Hi, I was just wondering if you knew where the culture club was", Taiyou thought to himself that this girl didn't seem that bad and he couldn't believe that she kills witches for a living. "Oh, it's back down there" Taiyou replies "My sister actually runs it". "Is that so?"she replies back "Well then. It was nice meeting you, Kai...Zo...Ku". This shocked Taiyou, did this girl know his secret, what's happening right now. "Sorry?, my names Taiyou" he says nervously. During the training he underwent with Dylan, Taiyou learned how to stay extremely calm during hard situations. But if he were to ever lose control, his Shivanano would back up and erase his memories of himself as Kaizoku and the rest of the group for the sake of secrecy. "Oh sorry" Emily replies "You just remind me of that guy on the internet, Y'know that Kaizoku guy". Taiyou does a realistic, fake laugh "Why is that?" He replies, "Well" Emily begins to explain "It's just that in some leaked images, his body height looks very similar to yours. On top of that, even though we can't see his face, something about him seems similar to you". Taiyou really needed to get Dylan to get images of them deleted quicker. "Oh well" Emily says "It was nice meeting you" She walks off. Taiyou finally walks into the Conspiracy Theorist club room. Dylan is seen sitting on a chair, "So I was thinking" Dylan begins to explain "What would we do if students actually started coming in here" Taiyou intervenes "Dylan, we have a problem".

In the band room, Jessie is seen teaching a boy how to play the bass "Pretty good, just a bit more practice for the concert tomorrow. Other than that, you're great". The boy leaves and Glen comes in "So, how's the defending No.1 bass guitarist going?" She asks gleefully, "Pretty good" Jessie replies "Let me guess, you want some lunch". "Maybe..." Glen replies in a awkward voice. Jessie hands her a box, "Thank you!" Glen proceeds to walk off. "Wait!" Jessie shouts "Do you wanna hang out this weekend?" she asks Glen. Glen turns around "Oh sorry, I have somewhere to go this weekend" Glen proceeds to exit the band room. Jessie's smiles fades "Yeah... me too".
