Yuki: (annoyed) It’s annoying.

  Hamesh: Then that settles it. I hope it goes well. I don’t have to worry about them. We haven’t encountered any demons. I have a bad feeling about this. I hope everything is alright. Good luck, Yuki.

  [ While walking back to their class. ]

  Adam: (Smiles) She is up to something.

  Yuvaraj: Are you kidding me? You tried to just pair me with him.

  Adam: Are you still scared, bro?

  Yuvaraj: I’m not scared. But I could not forget what he did...

  Adam: Yeah, like I would believe.

  [ Mika overheard their conversation and asked— ]

  Mika: So, you bullied him?

  Yuvaraj: Yeah, so what?

  Mika: So it’s you. You can’t bully someone.

  Yuvaraj: What’re you gonna do? Huh?

  [ Mika’s aura scares Yuvaraj; his arrogance faded. ]

  Yuvaraj: Okay, I’ll tell you everything.

  [ Flashback ]

  [ Yuki walking upstairs with his physics project, Yuvaraj bumped into Yuki. ]

  Yuvaraj: Hey, I’m sorry.

  [ His eyes were filled with fiery rage. ]

  Yuki: Are you kidding me?

  Yuvaraj: Look at his eyes… his heart’s pounding and his voice – shaking. I swear, I didn’t mean to. Please… I’m sorry. Just—tell me how I can fix this.

  [ Adam came into the scene ]

  Adam: Calm down, Yuki.

  [ Yuki stares over Adam. ]

  Adam: His voice trembling. I don’t think he did it on purpose.

  Yuki: softens. Oh really? He asked Yuvaraj.

  Yuvaraj: Yeah.

  Yuki: Oh, sorry! You don’t have to do anything. I don’t think so.

  [ Yuki walks away ]

  [ Flashback ends ]

  Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings.

  Yuvaraj: This is what happened at that time. After that incident, I never wanted to talk to him.

  Mika: So this is what happened, huh?

  Adam: Yeah, and why did you decide to team up with him?

  Mika: I am kinda curious about his characteristics and his story. He seems more like a demon according to their description. Even though Hamesh sir, trust him, I should keep an eye on him.

  Adam: Good luck then. Honestly, she’s doing all this just out of curiosity. I failed to figure out his story… let’s see how far she gets.

  [ In the classroom, Yuki is eating his lunch alone. ]

  Adam: (Excited) Hey buddy, it’s been a long time since I talked to you.

  Yuki: Here he comes, a joker in my class, Adam Joy. He has been my classmate ever since grade 9. (In a dull tone) What’s it now?

  Adam: He has been acting strange for the past 1 and a half years. I know he is introverted, but things got even worse and nobody knows about it, and why the hell is he acting so lame to me? I thought I could eat with you, that’s all.

  Yuki: I don’t mind. I think he has something to tell me.

  Adam: If Yuvaraj had agreed, I would have no objection to switching places with you.

  Yuki: You did that for yourself. Don’t you?

  Adam: (got awkward) What, what do you mean?

  Yuki: You’ve already failed twice, and now you’re suddenly interested in the new student.

  Adam: How is he so correct? Just so you know, this time just a friend.

  [ Scene switches to Mika, who is walking in the corridor. ]

  Mika: Ugh, it’s so noisy here. I need a break from people sometimes, I guess. I didn’t see the terrace here. Maybe I’ll check it out. )

  [ Mika goes to the terrace and finds a girl standing looking at the sky. ]

  Mika: There is someone here. It’s suspicious, someone at this time, being on the terrace. Anyway, I’ll act normal.

  [ Scene changes to Akari standing on the terrace and seeing outside. ]

  Akari: I successfully infiltrated the school. It has been 3 weeks by now, and I still haven’t received any orders. It’s annoying. Why don’t I kill someone? Things will get interesting. (smirks)

  [ Mika walks closer to the girl (Akari). ]

  Mika: Hey, who are you? (smile)

  [ She turned around and looked at Mika and whispered to herself. ]

  Akari:. I guess I got my prey. I should do my good deed now. [ She smiles and walks towards her. As soon as Mika meets her at a few feet apart, she instinctively leaps back. ]

  Mika: (whispers) Activate TFZ.

  [ Mika’s eyes turned yellow, and Akari’s eyes turned red. ]

  Mika: You are a demon, huh?

  Akari: And you are a protector.

  Mika: She is a demon unlike him. I can’t let my guard down. I don’t know anything about her powers, so I’ll let her make the first move.

  Akari: My wish is granted. I’ll kill her, instead of a random non-protector. I will also get some recognition from my king. I can’t be reckless; I should make my move carefully.

  [ Mika gets in her fighting stance ]

  Akari: Finally getting ready to fight, huh? What’s her power? Is she waiting for me to make the first move?

  [ Mika controls the rod of the fence slowly ]

  Mika: Just a little bit of sound… she’ll be alerted. So I have to do it without a single sound. Why don’t you talk a little, demon?

  Akari: It’s Akari.

  Mika: She is still in human form, but her eyes are red. She is nothing like any other demon. She is strong; her chakra is completely different from all, it’s terrifying. Okay, Akari. Show me what you got!

  [ Akari flashed in front of Mika in the blink of an eye, so fast that the air itself erupted into a roaring shockwave, sending dust and debris spiralling around them. Her voice was low, cold, and her eyes looked directly at Mika’s eyes.]

  Akari: But you don’t deserve to say it.

  Mika: (under pressure) She is fast

  [ Mika backs off, waves her hands, right to left, to break a piece of the wall and throw it at Akari. ]

  [ Akari flashed to Mika’s back ]

  Akari: in the same cold demeanour. You are too slow.

  [ Akari punched Mika—and the impact rippled through the air, blasting her into the wall with a shockwave that cracked the concrete. She spits out blood. ]

  Mika: How is she able to use two different powers?
