It was a normal day in the small town of Lhant and Cheria Barnes couldn't wait to pay a visit to her dearest Asbel. Her magenta locks slightly bounced as she proceeded towards the Lhant manor to check up on the new lord. Things had been extremely peaceful since they events concerning Lambda and Fodra, and everyone in Ephinea were now able to enjoy their lives peacefully.

It didn't take long for the young woman to finally arrive at the manor. She was greeted by her grandfather, as well as the various maids who attended to the building. Cheria headed straight for the study, where she assumed that Asbel would be working as he usually did ever since their time of peace.

"Asbel, are you here?" said Cheria, peeking inside the room before coming in entirely.

"Yes. Come in Cheria." responded the object of her search.

Cheria entered the room, smiling warmly at the male as she made her way over to his desk.

"How's work today? I know you must be pretty busy being the new lord and all. I had some free time from the relief organization and decided to come see you.." a light pink blush appeared on her face as she said this, looking to the side in an attempt to hide her embarrassment.

"That's uh..nice..Cheria." responded Asbel, running his fingers through his hair while giving her the most un-amused look.

She couldn't put her finger on it, but something had seemed rather off about the way Asbel was acting today. Perhaps it was due to all the work. That had to be it, right? He must have been so swamped with paperwork that he was distracted to the point of not being able to construct proper responses.

"Are you okay, Asbel?" Cheria asked, concern visible in her voice.

"Oh...I feel amazing..." Asbel replied, running his fingers through his hair yet again for no clear reason at all.

"Uh...Asbel... why do you keep running your fingers through your hair like that...? It's kinda weird..."

"Because my hair feels absolutely amazing..."

An anime sweatdrop appeared next to Cheria's head when she heard this. "Um...Amazing?" she repeated, making sure she had heard him correctly.

"I wouldn't expect a normal haired person like you to understand. Ugh... I'll just show you." Asbel stood from his chair and wasted no time in running both of his hands through his hair. Suddenly, music began to play as he preformed the action for a third time.

Cheria's eyes widened at this sight. "H-How did you do that?!"

"I've been using Richard's new amazing shampoo, and I've never turned back."

"Shampoo? What shampoo?"

At that very moment, Richard had entered the room, flipping his medium length golden locks and causing runway music to play. "Asbel, everyone is waiting for you."

Asbel ran his fingers through his hair as he nodded and walked over to Richard. "Sorry to keep you waiting, let's go."

With that, the two best friends had exited out the study without a single word to Cheria. All the magenta haired female could do was stand there, slightly dumbfounded at what had just occurred.

"The hell was all of that about?" she said to herself. She wasn't going to stand by and not try to find out what was going on. With that goal in mind, Cheria immediately followed the two of them out to the front of the manor where she saw Richard, Asbel, Hubert, Sophie, Malik, and Pascal just standing there.

"Oh, hi Cheria." Sophie said, looking over to the young woman and smiling.

"Um... what's going on here?" Cheria asked the group, wondering what on Ephinea they were up to.

"Us beautiful hair people are just conversing among ourselves." Richard answered, running his fingers through his hair and flipping it causing more music to play.

"Yeah...conversing." Said Asbel, doing the same and adding to the music Richard had created.

"My hair is soooo awesome!" Pascal shouted glee, twirling around and letting the wind blow in her hair which caused even more music to play.

"Yeah. Awesome." Sophie agreed, nodding her head which only added to the music that had been created by their hair.

"My hair is just as manly as I am." Malik added, doing the same as Asbel and running his fingers through his hair as well which only resulted in the addition of more music.

Cheria just stood there, completely silent. "..."

"You should totally join us, Cheria." Asbel said, doing the usual running his hair through his fingers.

"Yes. Cheria should most definitely use my newest shampoo." Richard agreed, nodding his head.

Cheria had remained quiet for the longest time before speaking. "This is really stupid. Why would I want to join some stupid hair cult? I'll come back when you guys stop being freaky..." and with that, the young woman walked away from the scene.

Little did she know, that things would not stop being "freaky" anytime soon. In fact, things were about to get much worse...
