The Chamber of Slates was chilly as the night wind blows from the roof.
Shiro looked aimlessly with sad eyes. Kuro and Neko worries for him.
"Shiro, are you okay?", asked Neko.
"Shiro, what should we do know?", asked Kuro.
Shiro looked back at them with a bitter smile.
"That's a good question. Honestly, I am at a loss myself. I didn't think for a moment that they'd have a wild card like that. I messed up."
"Stop blaming yourself, Shiro!", Kuro said surely," We don't have time for that. We are going to take back the Slates, aren't we?"
"Take it back, huh... The lieutenant put his life on the line for half a century to keep the Slates under control. And after his death, Munakata-san took over that task. But now it's only a matter of time before the Slate's power is released to the world."
Kuro and Neko was speechless and they don't know what to do with Shiro who was blaming himself like that.
Shiro moved around from the big hole on the glass from where the Slates used to be. Kuro and Neko was curious at what he was doing.
He knelt on the ground and knocked on the glass. Suddenly a steel cylinder rose up from under it as the glass made way. The top part of the cylinder opens up to show a woman sleeping inside.
"Meow!", yelled Neko in surprise.
"Who is she?", asked Kuro.
Kuro and Neko peeked inside to the young woman sleeping peacefully. Her eyes suddenly twitches and opens.
"Good morning, Yayoi-chan.", greeted Shiro softly.
"Adolf..."
"Had a good sleep?"
"I guess..."
The woman with blue eyes sat up on her sleeping pod and looked around. The Chamber of Slates was in a terrible mess and there was a hole on the rooftop.
"What happened?", she asked surprised.
"The Green King took the Slates."
"What?!"
She checked on the place where the Slates used to be, only to find a hole was in its place. She stepped outside of her pod.
Kuro was amazed at the elaborate kimono she was wearing and how it flows beautifully at each of her movement.
"I promised Daikaku I won't leave the Slates!", she cried.
"I know.", Shiro replied softly.
"Where's Reisi?", she asked angrily.
"Yayoi, go easy on him."
"Why?"
"He just had a rough time."
Kuro and Neko had stayed quiet, mostly at loss and amazement as the young woman that stood in front of them has just called the Gold King and the Blue King with their first names.
Anna and Kusanagi entered the Chamber in time to saw the young woman in the flowing kimono turning and running to leave the room.
Anna stopped in shock. Kusanagi was no less surprised either.
"Isn't that ..."
"Nemu-chan?", said Anna.
"She's here? Anna, did you see her? But why was her eyes blue? Wasn't her eyes gold before?"
