[u]City Hall - Mayor's Office[/u] Music: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uP_8ZgtTcx8]Hairline Crack[/url] [img]http://i.imgur.com/GBcwqea.png[/img] Amandra: I'm back. [img]http://i.imgur.com/5kxV5lY.png[/img] Baron: Had fun at the festival? [img]http://i.imgur.com/E8qemIL.png[/img] Amandra: Yeah, it was a rather chaotic place, and i liked it. I got to see "her" as well. [img]http://i.imgur.com/LSMeOYu.png[/img] Baron: This person you never cease to talk about....is it? [img]http://i.imgur.com/oqUaaly.png[/img] Amandra: I did see two surviving failed projects as well, but they don't interest me. [img]http://i.imgur.com/MHoLK39.png[/img] Baron: Failed Projects huh? [img]http://i.imgur.com/16JL1Xf.png[/img] Amandra: Nothing your excelency should worry about. It's something from my past. [img]http://i.imgur.com/KKhXrRC.png[/img] Cornelia: Your Excellency, i got urgent reports. [img]http://i.imgur.com/lqJuVaU.png[/img] Amandra: We'll talk more at the underground. You have a job to do right? [img]http://i.imgur.com/C9jpZo9.png[/img] Baron: Yeah, see you later then. Amandra left the room. [img]http://i.imgur.com/E8qemIL.png[/img] Amandra: I'm rather lucky, i have finally met my target...now it's just figure out where she is hiding. But still, it's a wonder that the way she's acting is not of someone who is running away...But no matter. If she doesn't remember me, this makes things easier. And i also have to thank the princess for keeping those fools busy. I don't want to deal with useless pests. [img]http://i.imgur.com/nTzys1J.png[/img] Amandra: Now, time to check the progress on that gate...the next phase is going to be soon i think... [u]Spring Chapter End[/u] [u][b]Epilogue[/b][/u] ((Hope you don't mind a 10 day time skip)) Music: [url=http://blog.jaychan.net/blog_music/SRWZ%20OST/4-11%20RAIN%20&%20TEAR.mp3]Rain&Tear[/url] The terrible day was over. The heroes managed to attain the Spring Dream, but many of their friends got gravely injured. And Barry Gray Togami perished in battle. Tsubasa Kazanari, Mina Violet Shadruss and Fael Celest were in critical condition, while many others were recovering from their wounds. [u]Lydian Hospital - After Midnight[/u] Medic: Tsubasa escaped immediate death. She needs to rest until her health stabilizes, but there's no telling if she might survive. [img]http://i.imgur.com/ed8sUeK.png[/img] Genjuro: We're counting on you. Then, Genjuro ordered his agents to try to locate the Nehustan Armor. It was top priority right now. Meanwhile, Hibiki was at the waiting room, just having recieved at text from Miku, reporting her about the attack at the festival. [img]http://oi57.tinypic.com/65u2a8.jpg[/img] Hibiki: ... Ogawa: I believe you must be blaming yourself. HIbiki: Hm? [img]http://i.imgur.com/nbIuww9.png[/img] Ogawa: They all decided to fight. Even Tsubasa-san. [img]http://oi61.tinypic.com/58bae.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Ogawa-san... Ogawa: As you must know, Tsubasa-san was part of the Zwei Wing. He offers her a cup of cold tea, which she accepts. Ogawa: Her partner was Kanade Amou, the original user of the Gungnir Symphoear. Which a fragement is logded in your heart. At that day, in order to minimize the damaged caused by the Noise monsters, she used the Swan Song. [img]http://oi57.tinypic.com/65u2a8.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Swan Song? I think Tsubasa-san said something about this. Ogawa: It's an ability that lets the singer unleash a massive amount of power, but if the user is not perfectly synced with the relic, it can lead to death. Hibiki: So she did that...to save me? Ogawa takes a sip. Ogawa: Kanade-san died by following her duties...and as a result, the Zwei Wing was gone. And Tsubasa-san alone tries to fill the gap, fighting beyond what she can. Unlike all the girls of her age, she doesn't know how to be happy. She repressed herself and decided to live as a sword that protects this city. And today, to follow her duty as a blade, she risked her life to use the Swan Song. Ogawa: She's strange right? But this is how she choose to live. Then, Ogawa could hear Hibiki's sobs. [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/2eukaif.jpg[/img] Hibiki: This...is so cruel...I insisted to fight in the place of Kanade-san...knowing nothing about Tsubasa-san. Ogawa: I don't think she can't be replaced. Nobody wants that. Say Hibiki-san. Can you promise something for me? [img]http://oi62.tinypic.com/15xmgds.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Huh? Ogawa: Please don't hate Tsubasa-san. But just don't leave her alone in this world. I believe that your good will might change something in her. [img]http://oi61.tinypic.com/58bae.jpg[/img] Hibiki: I see...Alright. I promise that. Ogawa: Whoa, it's morning already. I believe you should go to your dorm. [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/24eay2x.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Actually...Ogawa-san, can i ask a favor for you? Ogawa: Eh? [u]Spring Breeze Hospital[/u] Ogawa was taking Hibiki on his car to visit those who were injured in the festival. She was still blaming herself and crying about how Tsubasa fought alone all this time. Once she got down the car, the first person she met was Miku, who recieved her with a hug. Miku: Hibiki! [img]http://oi58.tinypic.com/309inib.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Eh? Miku? Miku: You didn't text me back, so i was worried... [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/2drfl2h.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Oh...well, there's been a lot in my mind... Miku: Fool...You're always spacing out like this...But...if you're fine, then that fine... She let go of her friend. [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/xf0ox1.jpg[/img] Hibiki: You think so? I just can't do anything alone. I decided to study at Lydian because you would as well. Miku: I know that. But you know you're horrible with excuses. Just look at you trying to change subjects. [img]http://oi62.tinypic.com/1zqzmsg.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Yeah...i can't hide anything from you right? Miku: Yup. Now come here, i believe you want to visit someone. Miku takes Hibiki to the room where Fael lies in a coma. [img]http://oi61.tinypic.com/dzjbdu.jpg[/img] Hibiki: ... Miku: He lost too much blood, with many slash wounds...and his right eye...they said it would be impossible to restore it... [img]http://oi62.tinypic.com/15xmgds.jpg[/img] Hibiki: So...you're saying that... Miku: Sorry...you had to see this...Since that he is your friend...i thought you had the right to know how he was. [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/2eukaif.jpg[/img] Hibiki: It's okay...You did...the right thing... Miku: Hibiki... Hibiki: He choose to fight...He knew that this might happen to him... But she couldn't contain her tears again. Music: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0C0eLtxxb-I]Like an Old Dream[/url] Miku: Hibiki. No matter what happens, continue to be yourself. If you grow up being yourself, i'll be there to support you. Because, you're unique. I don't want to lose you. [img]http://oi58.tinypic.com/309inib.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Is it...okay to be myself? Miku: I belive everyone likes you this way. Hibiki reflects a bit, looking at the ground, then to Fael. She closes her right fist, with a look of determination on her face. [img]http://oi62.tinypic.com/2rolrae.jpg[/img] Hibiki: (Being myself...That's right. No matter what i decide, i'll continue to be myself.) Thanks Miku, i think i found my resolve. Miku: *smiles* So, do you want to see the fireworks? I filmed that. *pulls cellphone* [img]http://oi58.tinypic.com/2csb3te.jpg[/img] Hibiki: EH? Although, Hibiki noticed something strange in those fireworks. [img]http://oi60.tinypic.com/2vc9czp.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Um...Miku? Miku: W-Well, i think i-it's a new type. Then, both starts to laugh, with Hibiki crying a bit more. [img]http://i.imgur.com/NiQuwdu.png[/img] Hibiki: That's weird, i can't contain my tears. Miku: It is okay to cry a bit more. Hospital Staff: Alright, visiting time is over. [img]http://oi61.tinypic.com/10oimc6.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Say Hospital Mister, can i talk something with my friend over there? It's quick. Hospital Staff: Hm? Well, if you say so. Miku: I'll be waiting outside. [img]http://oi62.tinypic.com/2aa0jzb.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Hey Fael, it's me...I doubt you can hear me in this state. But if you can, i want you to hear this. [img]http://oi57.tinypic.com/rkc2td.jpg[/img] Hibiki: I also have something to protect. Maybe calm days and small promises might be everything i can protect. But even still, in order to protect them, i need to be stronger while being myself. [img]http://oi58.tinypic.com/1z15zj9.jpg[/img] Hibiki: So...I hope that you get better, so we can all protect what's dear to us. She tapped his shoulder lightly and shooked him a bit, and then smiled. Once she left the room, she bumped into Hugh. [img]http://oi60.tinypic.com/1twrhh.jpg[/img] Hugh: Oh hey, It's you Tachibana. [img]http://oi61.tinypic.com/10mojyt.jpg[/img] Hibiki: H-Hi Hugh. D-Did that hurt you? [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/nfc43.jpg[/img] Hugh: I'll be fine, i'm distracted with sorting things with myself. [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/2drfl2h.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Oh, you do that too? [img]http://oi58.tinypic.com/33u7jhd.jpg[/img] Hugh: I believe most of us do. You look more chipper than usual though. Most of us can't even crack a smile. Even if it's fake... [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/xf0ox1.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Yeah, but if you were early a bit more, you would see me crying rivers. [img]http://oi57.tinypic.com/11ue1on.jpg[/img] Hugh: Ah, i see. [img]http://oi60.tinypic.com/fxtdtf.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Ah, one more thing, where do your father lives right now? [img]http://oi57.tinypic.com/2ihl45k.jpg[/img] Hugh: Huh? What are you asking me that? [img]http://oi58.tinypic.com/qyifja.jpg[/img] Hibiki: I...can't tell you...just give me the adress... [img]http://oi60.tinypic.com/1twrhh.jpg[/img] Hugh: Here's his card. [img]http://oi58.tinypic.com/1z15zj9.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Alright, thanks! She bolts away, leaving Hugh scratching the back of his head. [img]http://oi58.tinypic.com/33u7jhd.jpg[/img] Hugh: Well, I guess we need to work even harder from now on. Music: [url=http://66.90.91.26/ost/symphogear-vocal-collection/jaxejunzwm/06-offensive-spear-gungnir.mp3]Gekisou Gungnir[/url] Some hours later, after school, Hibiki went for Genjuro's house instead. [img]http://oi61.tinypic.com/9toepk.jpg[/img] Hibiki: [b]PLEASE![/b] Genjuro: Wha-... [img]http://oi60.tinypic.com/fxtdtf.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Please, teach me how to fight. Genjuro: You want me to do it? [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/xf0ox1.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Well, i tried to ask Mister Grant beforehand, but he shoved me with your adress instead. Genjuro: That's just like him alright. He's not bery good with kids. [img]http://oi60.tinypic.com/2rqdr94.jpg[/img] Hibiki: If he trust you train me, i imagined that you could teach me some awesome stuff. Genjuro just stares a bit and crosses his arms. Genjuro: My methoods are quite rigid. [img]http://oi61.tinypic.com/10oimc6.jpg[/img] Hibiki: AH! Yes! I'll take it! Genjuro: Now that this is settled, Hibiki-kun, do you like action movies? [img]http://oi59.tinypic.com/24eay2x.jpg[/img] Hibiki: Yes? And then, from ten days onwards, [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIP541B9F88]Hibiki would train under Genjuro's tutelage.[/url] Spring has ended, giving place to a schorching hot summer season.
