It was a normal day at the office, but only Enterprise was in the room. Ethan was called to the police station again to see if there was any progress in the investigation of the incident. Enterprise was filling out some paperwork when she heard someone knock on the door.

Enterprise: "Come in."

The doors then opened revealing that it was Edward.

Edward: "Ah, Enterprise. Is Ethan here?"

Enterprise: "No sir, he isn't. He went to the police station to help with the investigation."

Edward: "I see... Well, I guess I'll talk to him later. Oh yeah, I forgot to ask, how is he doing? Ethan, I mean."

Enterprise: "Well, I think he's doing just fine."

Edward: "I see... Well then, I think I'll take my leave. I wouldn't want to bother you while your working. See ya."

Edward then left the room and left Enterprise to continue her work.

A few hours later...

Enterprise just finished her work and was waiting for Ethan to come back from the police station. She was tidying Ethan's desk when she noticed a letter on his desk. At first, she didn't pay attention to it but she grew curious about what was inside. She then decided to take a little look. When she opened it, she was shocked to see what was inside.

Enterprise: "A love letter?! For Ethan?!"

As Enterprise was about to continue reading, she heard some footsteps and quickly closed the letter and placed it in the drawer of Ethan's desk. After doing so, the doors opened revealing it to be Ethan.

Ethan: "Hey Enterprise. Sorry, I took so long."

Enterprise: "I-it's alright."

Ethan them noticed that there were no piles of paper on his desk.

Ethan: "Enterprise, did you do all the paperwork?"

Enterprise: "Uh, yeah, I did."

Ethan: "I'm really sorry I couldn't help you at all today, even though it's my job..."

Enterprise: "It's okay commander. Really."

Ethan: "I know! Why don't we go out for dinner? It's the least I could do."

Enterprise: "Actually, I kinda want to go to the firing range. I want to practice a little."

Ethan: "Oh, okay. Then I'll go with you. I also want to practice my aiming too."

Enterprise: "Alright."

The two then went to the firing range. When they got there, they saw that the place was empty.

Ethan: "I guess no one's here."

Enterprise: "Yeah." she said as she picked up one of the bows that were hanging on the wall.

Enterprise: "Commander, which bow do you want?"

Ethan: "Actually, I'll be using my own."

Enterprise was confused for a moment but then, out of nowhere, a bow manifested in Ethan's hand.

Enterprise: "Commander! How did you do that?!" she asked in shock

Ethan: "Well, I just picture what type of weapon I want in my head and then it just appears right in front of me. I guess now I can protect my self. Anyway, why don't we have a little competition? Whoever gets the most points wins."

Enterprise: "Sure, but I hope you don't regret it, commander."

The two then had their little competition, with Enterprise winning.

Ethan: "Damn. And I thought I was gonna win this time. Well played."

Enterprise: *chuckles* "It's alright commander. But I've got to say, you've improved since last time."

Ethan: "Thanks. Anyway, it's getting late. I think we should call it a day."

Enterprise: "Yeah, I think so."

Enterprise then placed the bow back on the wall and Ethan just made his bow disappear. They then left the firing range and went to the dorms. As they were walking there, Ethan felt a chill going down his spine, like someone was watching them. Ethan decided to ignore it. Then, Enterprise asked him a question.

Enterprise: "Hey commander, can I ask what type of stuff can you make with your new powers?"

Ethan: "Uhm, Up until now, I could only manifest a bow, knife, and some types of rigging."

Enterprise: "What kind of rigging?"

Ethan: "It ranges from destroyer guns to even battleship type guns."

Enterprise: "I see. Eh?"

Without noticing, they already reached the girl's dorm.

Ethan: "Wow, we're here. Anyway, I'm gonna go back to my room. See you tomorrow Enterprise."

Enterprise: "Yeah, see you, commander."

Ethan then left the girls dorm and qent back to his room, but on his way there, the feeling of someone watching him grew bigger.

Ethan: "W-who's there?" he asked but no one replied.

Ethan: *sigh* "What is wrong with me?"

???: "Nothing's wrong with you, my sweet commander."

Ethan slowly turned his head around and saw that it was Taihou.

Ethan: "..."

Taihou: "What's wrong commander? Are you that excited to see me that you are at a loss of words?"

Ethan: "Uhh, n-no. That's not it." he said as he slowly backed away from her.

Taihou: "Commander, are you trying to run away from me?" she said with a yandere look in her eyes.

Ethan: "O-of course not."

Taihou: "Then why are you backing away?"

(Ethan's POV)

I'm so screwed! What should I do? Ethan thought to himself.

Without thinking, he ran towards the girl's dorm, hoping to find someone to help him.

Taihou: "Ah, I see that commander want's to play tag. Then, YOUR IT!"

Taihou then quickly chased after Ethan. Even though Ethan ran first, Taihou quickly caught up to him and when she was close, she jumped on him.

Ethan: "Taihou, listen. We can talk this through calmly."

Taihou: "It's too late for that commander~"

Just as Taihou was about to make a move, Ethan accidentally touched her forehead, and then, the blue energy came out of his hand and into her head and all of a sudden, Taihou fainted.

Ethan: "Huh? What happened?" he said as he moved Taihou off his body.

Ethan: "Well, whatever happened, I'm glad it did happen."

Ethan then picked up Taihou in a princess carry and brought her to her room. After setting her down on the bed, he quickly got out of the girl's dorm and went back to his room.

Ethan: "What a day..."
