The New B-Shot: Side Stories

Kohana & Samuru's Little Adventure • Part 1

~Location: Hachiro's House, South Area of Crestland

It was a normal, sunny day in Crestland. The sun was shining down from the clear blue skies and onto the grassy fields behind Hachiro's house within the area. The light was shining through the windows and into the house. Three months has passed since the Crossfire Phoenix Grand Prix Tournament has started and finished, and the official debut of the Gems of Revolution, and finally sealing Triple Gillusion and Spike Phoenix away for good.

Kohana was downstairs in the living room and doing some of her chores inside the house, right now she's cleaning and dusting off everything in the living room. Aries was sitting on top of the drawers with some framed pictures around him. With it, her father is currently working at the company building to run some errands, passing some completed paperwork, and many other business stuff that he's doing.

"Wow..." Aries lightly gasped, "This place is looking great. Your Dad's going to be surprise when he sees this place, all cleaned up." He said, gazing upon the clean living space of the house.

"And..." Kohana snapped her fingers, "Done!" She exclaimed and the aura surrounding the handle of the duster disappears and drops down from the air. She catches the duster and looks at the living room, after it's been thoroughly cleaned.

"This house's looking nice, now. It's all cleaned up and everything." Kohana said, looking around the living room. She snapped her left fingers and picks up Aries from on top of the drawers then placed him onto the coffee table, where Kohana sat down on the couch.

Kohana sighed deeply to herself and Aries glanced at her, humming. "Are you okay, Kohana?" He asked.

"Hmm?" She hummed back, nodding her head. "Yeah, I'm fine, Aries." Kohana replied. "But I mean, I know it's only been three months since the Phoenix Grand Prix, yet it feels like forever now, doesn't it?"

Aries sighed, "Yeah..." He agreed. "I feel the same way, too, Kohana. But, at the very least, Kamon's the new Grand B-Master and he made it fun for everyone to be playing Crossfire here in Crestland."

"That's a good thing to know, Aries." Kohana replied. "But with this free time, I don't what to do except practice my guitar and singing."

"Oh!" Aries gasped. "Do you have a photo album somewhere in this house, Kohana?"

"A photo album?" She thought and snapped her fingers. "Yeah! That's a great idea, Aries! You haven't seen your old self when you weren't talking."

"Awesome! I can't wait see pictures of myself when I was... Flaming Aries!" Aries exclaimed with excitement, Kohana lightly giggles.

She got off the couch and approaches the bookshelf, meeting with the bottom shelf and looking through all of the books and photo albums that are being put together at the bottom row of the bookshelf. Kohana slides her fingertips across the spines of the photo albums and finds the album she need.

"Found it...!" She quietly yelled and pulls the photo album out of the shelf, picking it up with her powers and brings it over to the coffee table, next to her B-Daman.

"Whoa... would you look at that..." Aries stated. "I haven't seen any of these albums in a long time."

Kohana blows the dust off the top to get a clearer picture of what's on the front of the photo album. The title of the photo album says "Travelling to the Ruins". Kohana breathes in and her eyes widened in surprise. "Aries, I think I found the album of when I first met Samuru-kun and Gennosuke-san." Kohana stated to Aries.

"Really, now?" Aries questions and Kohana nodded. "Well, this is going to be really fun and I can't wait to see a younger version of yourself and Samuru."
