A long time ago, in the distant past, a moon, the color of blood, rose up into the night sky. Then, a gate to another world opened, a world people believed to be the fiery world of Hell. In one night, it destroyed an entire kingdom, and left when the moon bled no more. Two months later, when the kingdom was still recovering from the tragedy, a moon of beautiful light bestowed upon them, and the heavens opened up, revealing beings of light. They aided the people and helped them recover, all in one night before disappearing as the moon shined no more. Folks used to say that they can see ghosts who bear a small resemblance to those they have known and lost. The six combat forms, Wrath, Dancer, Murder, Metamorphosis, and Restoration, and Resurrection. "Combats of the Heart" some call them, "Powers of the Soul" others would say, but the common folk would just call them Combat Forms. Those with the strength of a lion would carry the power of Wrath. Very few with such flexibility would dare to tame the speed of Dancer. Folk who live their life in shadows can wield the will to be as silent as Murder's death. Those who connect themselves to nature will conquer the power of Metamorphosis, the power to become nature's animals, and possibly to become mythical creatures. And only truly gifted folk would be able to unlock Restoration ability to heal others whenever they are in battle or not in such conflicts. The sixth ability is greatly theorized to be the result of the blood and bright moons, possibly creating Resurrection, a second chance for only the dead to rise again. Only one, truly committed to their Combat Form can obtain such power.

"Hm?" Turning around, her hair whipping past her, Celestia turned around. "Oh, it's just you Byakuya." She said with relief, and turned back around. There was silence in classroom 1-A. "Hmph. Why do you ignore me?" Togami said after a while. Celest smiled and turned around. "I thought you didn't care for me." Inside Celest was hurting, but she put on a smile in hopes to make Togami happy. Togami sat down. "I must be respected for, I hope you know." Celest wanted to run. After what she had did, she wanted to hurl, but she didn't need to make herself suspicious; especially the one she loved. "I'm sorry." She said, putting her hand up to her mouth. Togami got up and came closer to her. "I know that you killed them." He said, holding her hands. Celest looked surprised. "How did you-" "Never mind that. But I see you're in quite a sticky situation." Celestia quivered in fear and fell to her knees. "Please, don't tell anyone! I-I swear, I'll do anything you want!" Togami scoffed. "It's strange to see such a powerful woman act in such a disgusting way." Celest formed a grin, still shaking. "Haha, it's likely of you to act this way..." Togami reached out a hand and Celest grabbed it. "You, I, and Kirigiri are the only people who aren't idiots in this place. We could team up, you know. Form an alliance. When we say we killed them together, we split the money." Celest smiled. "You would do anything for money, wouldn't you?" "Well, you would to obviously; playing cards, committing murder." "Speaking of cards," Celest said, sitting down. She layed down a diamond box, holding the finest cards. "Let's play war?" Togami grinned and sat down. "I hope you know, war won't just occur in this card game. If you plan to form this alliance with me, we will face war against the others." Celest let out a long breath. "As long as I'm with you, who cares?" Togami looked shocked. "I thought you agreed to do this for the money." "I'm not that self centered, you know. Now come on, let's play."
