'23rd August'
A car arrived by 11:30 in front of the TSD main building. Captain Theodore stood with his arm crossed with Helena, Eiran and Reina behind him.
"Good to see you again, Captain!" Sienna said as she got out of the car first.
"Good to see you alive." Captain replied.
Sienna approched the others and waved at them.
Slowly one by one, Lori and Ryu got out of the car.
"Ryu, how are you feeling now?" Reina asked while approaching.
"Oh, hey guys! I'm quite alright, although we couldn't success in catching the enemy..."
Ryu replied slowly while looking down.
"Hey! Chill out, it's not big deal. At least you came back alive!" Eiran cheered.
"Yeah!" Reina nodded.
"You all should go rest." Helena said from besides.
As the each group parted their ways and started to head towards the main building...
Ryu suddenly lost track and fell to the ground.
"Ryu?!" Lori, who was behind them noticed that Ryu had collapsed.
"Ryu!" Eiran and Reina stopped at once and started to pick up Ryu.
"Get him to the infirmary and you two-" Captain pointed at Sienna and Lori, "Go to infirmary too. And rest there." Captain said as he signals Helena to go with them.
Helena nodded.
Sienna suddenly paused and looks at her hands, it was full of scars. Something she never wanted.
..."Hey what's your name, girl?"
A young girl about the age of 14/15 looked up slowly.
"Yesha...just Yesha..."
"Hey!!! Sienna??"
"Huh?!" Sienna blinked as if she had lost track of the world around her.
"Hey let's go."
It was Reina.
"Yeah, I'm sorry. Let's go!"
They began to walk towards the infirmary building.
{Five hours late, inside infirmary hall}
"Dang it, Ryu haven't even wake up yet?" A familiar voices were heard besides Ryu's bed.
"U...r-" Ryu struggled to speak but was started to get back in sense.
"Ah- Ryu, are you feeling alright?" It was Reina.
"Reina..." Ryu slowly opened his eyes and was about to get up.
"Hey-hey, why are you getting up? You are still weak?!" Eiran stopped him.
Ryu get back to laying and started to look at his hands, they were bandaged.
'Why...my both hands are bandaged...?" Ryu slowly asked.
"You overused your aegis, Ryu." Eiran said from beside.
"Oh...." Ryu kept staring at his hands.
