Everyone's full of spirit (except for Sakura), and Kohran's first in the rankings, but...



... the stats say otherwise. Kanna is, once again, some kind of freakishly unstoppable monstrosity (9 atk, 9 def, 9 move), though Kohran and Sumire are giving her a run for her money.

Sakura? I guess she's just kinda there.









TAISHO ERA, 12th YEAR; JUNE

You have to admit that even when Maria's being a colossally stubborn idjit...

... she can still act really fucking cool.

[Setsuna]

Kukukukuku.... so it appears that you truly fear letting others know about your past!



----


[Setsuna]

Hahaha! You've completely fallen for my trap!!


----
[Maria]

What the-- you just TELEPORTED these Wakiji in from out of the blue! That's not fair!


[Setsuna]

Fair? FAIR? Do YOU want to talk about fair?! YOUR boss doesn't force you all to sortie one at a time, instead of getting all us big nobs together and sweeping through the Imperial Capital in a matter of minutes! All WE get are stupid Wakiji!


[Maria]

Well, you--


[Setsuna]

YOU'VE got flashy finals and protects and strategies, too, and all those cool uniforms! Do you know what I have? Huh?!


[Maria]

That doesn't--


[Setsuna]

I've been ten years old for countless millennia and all I get out of the deal is a fucking bowl cut and the most ridiculously cheesy laugh the world has ever known!! Tell me why I shouldn't just defy the laws of drama and tear you to bits right now, the easy way!!


[Maria]

I could just pop open the hatch of my Koubu, pull out my pistol, and plug your face full of holes.


[Setsuna]

... point taken. Let's... let's just get you inside.

~ Fin.

... how the hell did she EXPECT this encounter to go?










Some time later, despite the fact that Maria came here on foot and everyone else drove in by blimp...



[Ogami]

And Maria?

[Ayame]

I strongly advise letting Kohran go in first to disarm any explosives she may have left behind.


[Ogami]

To keep the Wakiji away, right?


[Ayame]

... what do YOU think, Ogami-kun?


[Ogami]

I'm thinking that it'd have been more prudent to allow us to wear bulletproof vests, actually.


[Ayame]

We're not made of money. We can't spend money to protect that which is easily replaceable.


[Ogami]

I... you guys can afford to launch a giant freakin' blimp anytime you WANT, for crying out loud! And by replaceable, you're--


[Ayame]

Maria won't shoot to kill, she'll just shoot to excruciating amounts of pain. Organs and limbs are replaceable.


[Ogami]

How about sanity and peace of mind!?


[Ayame]

I think Kohran knows a thing or two about brain transplants--


[Ogami]

I'M SORRY, SIR, BUT "KSSH" WE'RE BREAKING "KSSH" UP "KSSSSSH" CAN'T HEAR "KSSSH" YOU HANGING UP NOW "KSSSH."

----

[Ayame]

Ogami-kun, your priority is to get closer and investigate the area around her Koubu.




[Everyone]

Understood!
