A van was seen driving rather recklessly on an abandoned road. The driver, a young girl, yawned.

This girl is The Artisan Of Arms: Nicoletta (Nico) Goldstein.

Izumiko was seen in the passenger seat with Katsumi and Toga sitting on the couch on the back.

The girls were currently listening to the radio. "Red Grave and its surrounding cities have ceased to function as a result of the mysterious tree that apparently attacked the city approximately one month ago. In light of this incident, the government has now-"

The radio signal was cut off so Izumiko changed the station.

"They're demons! I've seen them with my own eyes! Red Grave is completely taken over!"

She changed it again.

"Let us pray for mercy. This is a trial from the heavens above. The end-"

She turned off the radio. "It's like a broken record these days." she said. "No kidding." Katsumi said from the back. Izumiko got up and went to the back, starting a conversation as she did so.

"So tell me, Kacchan. Himi-chan."

The blondes in question looked at her. "Tell you what?" Toga asked. Izumiko went to the jukebox and played some soft music. "How does it feel to be a part of this little group we got here?"

Katsumi grinned at that. "If you had told me a year ago that I would be a part of a demon-hunting agency, I would've laughed in your face. But now, I've never been so pumped up." she said, making the greenette chuckle. "Well, that's a good attitude to have nowadays." she said as she went back to the passenger seat.

Nico lit a cigarette and took a breath of it. "In all honesty, I never would've thought I'd be dragged into something like this. But someone's gotta watch your back." she admitted.

Izumiko noticed the cigarette and opened the window. "Do you really need to do that? That's bad on your lungs." she said as she leaned her head out. "You're not my mom." Nico simply responded.

The green-haired girl chuckled. "I may as well be at this point." she said before looking down the street. She noticed all the demons in their way.

The track changed to something more upbeat as Izumiko got her friends' attention. "Hey, girls!"

Nico responded first. "Don't lose your tits. I see 'em." she said as she stepped on the gas.

Now, most people would try to avoid all the demons.

Nico is not most people.

She rammed through every demon that happened to be unfortunate enough to be there. The other girls in the van didn't give any reaction that indicated fear. Toga and Katsumi held onto the couch as Izumiko looked at Nico.

"Hey, you have to hit every single bump in the road? Gonna ruin my groove." she said as she got out Blue Rose and began shooting at random demons.

A demon crawled up to the driver side window, but Nico, without looking, simply stuck the burning end of her cigarette in its face and pushed it off, which resulted in it slamming into a car.

Nico then rammed two other demons, their blood splattering on the windshield. She simply activated the wipers and laughed as the demons' faces went along with it.

The girls then saw a group of demons in front of them. Izumiko and Nico looked to each other, smirks on their faces. The blondes in the back saw the interaction and held on tighter.
