00:29 - Love in Despair.

"When did you get your hair done?" Rei asked, glancing at the FBI agent for a mere second to look at her brown hair that now have champagne blonde highlights.

"Last night." She answered, scrolling on her phone to look for a specific contact number. Once found, she immediately sent a text message about their current location.

"What for?" He asked in curiosity, still not used to Sumire's unpredictable tactics though he knew he'll never get used to something that he might have to experience every single day on his life.

"You do remember how the organization now knew about Rosé being alive, right? I'm sure whoever reported me isn't really even familiar with Irene." The brunette explained with a sigh, leaning back on her seat with her legs crossed before looking out the window.

"What do you mean?"

"She's supposed to be completely British. Her eyes are different from my blue ones, they're gray. Her natural hair isn't brown but champagne blonde. I'm sure that person from the organization only found out because Arthur's parents called me by Irene multiple times that night. Their supposed daughter in law." Sumire scoffed in displease of the situation she found herself in, having Rei glance at her in worry. He sighed before removing one of his hand from the steering wheel to intertwine his fingers with Sumire's in comfort.

"If 'they' found out that the one whoever that member is reported isn't the Rosé, I'm sure that person will get punish for sure." She added before finally lacing her fingers with Rei's, looking at him to give him a small smile.

"It will delay the organization's search for the person one of their members reported." Sumire simply stated, causing Rei to look at her for a second with uncertainty.

"It'll be okay." She whispered with her deep voice.

"How can you be sure?"

"A lot is on stake... I won't fail this time. Even if I have to surrender myself as Rosè, I'll do it to be inside again. I can't let this go on any longer..." Sumire muttered under breath before sighing once again.

After some time of a silent drive, they finally arrived at their destination.

"Sumire-san!" A familiar dark haired female high school student exclaimed in greeting, running over to develop the mentioned lady into a tight hug.

"Kazuha-chan, it's nice to see you again." The FBI agent stated with a neutral expression before pulling away from the younger female's embrace.

"Where's sensei?" The brunette asked as she entertwined with hand with Rei's, much to Kazuha's surprise as it's been a while since she last saw Sumire with another guy.

"In the living room. She seems to be waiting for you." Kazuha stated with a smile, watching Sumire pulled Rei by his hand towards the said room.

"Get ready. She have a blade fan on her hand." The highschool student added before marching away from the house to look for Heiji as he didn't seemed to be home at the moment.

"Of course, she knows how to make things interesting." Sumire muttered under her breath before letting go of Rei's hand to took out her blade fan as well.

Right after she slide the door open, she marched towards the older woman who is calmly sitting on the couch. Rei's eyes widen when Sumire swing her fan to land a cut on her mentor, only to be easily deflected.

They continued at it for a few more minutes before the FBI agent managed to slash on her mentor's cheek, a small wound appeared on her delicate skin.

"You improved." Hattori Shizuka slightly smiled at her student before frowning at the sight of the man standing beside Sumire, scaring off Rei with her gaze.
