Here it is, the sequel is now underway. These won't be as long as the previous one since the majority of what happens in the GA II Retold story still occur and due to time constraints, I'm only focusing on highlights on the first part of the trilogy, but there will be a few twists ahead.

In this route, it begins on Chapter 1 before the Kazuya and Nano route begins. Then on one night, with the help of the girls, Arnold and Chitose meet up to catch up on their relationship.

Getting To Kiss (Nano Route)

During the last four years of peace since the Val-Fasc were defeated, a lot had changed. With the help of my dimension gate key, a new galaxy was found called NEUE and a central globe was created inside ABSOLUTE, all the while other changes were made, the Moon Angel Wing was disbanded and I was reassigned as leader of the newly created Rune Angel Wing.

Today was the day I was bringing along a new recruit, Kazuya seemed a little nervous yet excited to be starting out as an angel wing member, I could see that he had good potential. When I gave a him a tour around the Luxiole, it felt a little surreal since I remembered that many years ago, it was Milfie who gave Tact a tour around the Elsior.

Our tour had just finished and we walked up to the bridge where Tact was speaking to Lester and Almo on the big screen.

"Tact, we're back from the tour." I said before noticing the screen. "Oh, long time no see, Lester."

"Well, if it ain't the Rune Angel's Arnold." Lester replied. "You need something?"

"Let them be, Lester." Tact said. "So what do you think of the Luxiole, Kazuya?"

"It's...quite big." He replied. "I could get used to this ship."

"Well, I'd like to speak with you in my office later. Arnold, you role as a tour guide is over, you can leave now."

I nodded. "Got it, I'll be taking my leave in a moment."

As Tact and Kazuya walked into his office, Lester stayed on screen.

"Well I have my role to get back to, but here's someone I'm sure you wanna meet."

He walked off the screen and then came Chitose...ahhh Chitose Karasuma. She was the one who I fell in love with all those years ago, when I played the waiting game back then. It all happened so quickly looking back now, but I wouldn't change it for anything. I still remembered the first kiss she and I shared although it was in front of the moon angel wing group.

But since then, we had many more kisses alone and my dancing had gotten a lot better too. During the four years, she was assigned as captain and was alongside Forte when the training for new recruits was taking place. I had my re-training at the time as well, but the one thing that hadn't changed was our love for each other.

"Hi, Arnold." She greeted me happily. "I feel so happy to see you."

"Chitose...I am absolutely the same." I replied. "You're still looking beautiful as ever."

She blushed. "Oh my...n-n-not in front of everyone."

"I couldn't resist." I smirked. "But in all seriousness, I would do a lot with my two hands if I could hold you once again."

"Awww." Coco sighed and I heard Almo sigh although she was off-screen, those two hadn't changed.

"However, we have to cut this off quickly as we have our work to carry out." Chitose said. "But yes, I'd love to be in your arms again. We'll make it possible soon."

"Yes...I'll be with you again soon...love you, Chitose."

"Love you too, Arnold."

The transmission was then cut...and I sighed as I left the bridge, I really would do a lot to be close to her again.

In the battles that followed, we met with old friends and recruited a new member into the group. During the time, I started seeing Kazuya merging his frame with Nano's quite a few times and it got me wondering if he likes her a little bit and if so, then it would be my job to give him a bit of a push as I knew what it was like to find a relationship.

We were given time-off at the island of Hokkori where many others have their vacation, I was keen to go along with the Rune Angel Wing members, but I had gone down with a severe headache so I chose to decline and take a long rest in my room...but I had no idea that it was the work of the curse. When it occurred, I felt that it was all going to end tragically for me, until a moment of hope arrived at the last moment and I turned it around.

After that curse was gone, I felt much better with my body and morale restored since the angel wing needs me as their leader.

As I walked out of my room the following day, refreshed and clear, I saw a glimpse of Nano dashing from the piroti and down the elevator. Then Kazuya appeared shortly and he was panting, was he after Nano or something? I had to get involved in this for the good of the angel wing morale.

"Kazuya." I said. "Hold on a moment, what is going on?"

"Hah...it's Nano, she and I were about to do something but I was interrupted too many times and now she's gotten all mad." He explained.

"Something...ahhh wait a moment, you were about to have your first kiss, right?"

"Yeah...and I've been trying to get her to calm down, but she doesn't seem to be listening."

"Then let's follow her...it seems that she may have gone down a few floors."

I dashed with Kazuya down the alternative stairway connecting the floors of the ship, we dashed into the hanger and there was Nano climbing a ladder to her frame.

"Nano!" Kazuya exclaimed. "Please listen to me."

"Hisssssss!" Nano responded in a cat like expression with her tail in the air.

"Nano, now's not the time to let your cat instincts overtake you." I said. "If you two want your first kiss, now would be the perfect time...heck, I would make sure no one else calls for Kazuya."

Nano sighed angrily. "But you don't need to get involved, Arnold...woah!"

Suddenly, she lost her grip and started to fall.

"Nano!" Kazuya exclaimed rushing to where she was falling. "Oomph!"

I turned away for a split second and looked back to see that Nano fell on top of Kazuya and more surprisingly, she had her lips on Kazuya's in a locked kiss.

"Ahem!" I cleared my throat which broke up the kiss and they both got up.

"Sorry about that, Kazuya." Nano apologised whilst blushing.

"Its...alright." He replied. "How was the kiss?"

"Hehe, that's a secret..."

I smiled. "Well, looks like fate dealt you a lucky hand...but please, don't scare me like that again, Nano."

"It's okay, I can land on my feet after all."

From a height that far?! I thought to myself. "Anyways, you two should leave the hanger and take your new-found relationship somewhere more appropriate...oh and you have my support."

"Thanks Arnold." Kazuya said.

"Yeah, thanks!" Nano added before she grabbed his hand and they rushed out of the hanger.

I sighed and laughed. "Young love, eh? It's quite different to how it used to be." I shortly left the hanger myself.

It was the nighttime where our attempt to travel through the Chrono Gate to ABSOLUTE, failed due to Verel still holding Milfie inside Central Globe. We were kind of at a loss what to do until Emperor Soldum and his two fairies came to the Luxiole to explain that there was another way to activate the Chrono Gate. But whilst the talk was taking place, I got a call to go to the hanger.

When I arrived, a space shuttle flew in and docked, out came the familiar faces I knew well.

"Mint, Vanilla and Ranpha?" I was surprised.

"Well, Arnold, what an interesting way to see us all again." Mint replied.

"Forte was with us, but she went to gather reinforcements for the upcoming battles." Vanilla added.

"But that's not all, we have someone special for you." Ranpha teased. "Come on out, you."

Then I saw the girl that I loved, right in front of me. "Arnold...it's been a while."

"Chitose?!" I exclaimed.

She suddenly rushed to me, I braced myself for the impact with my arms open. She flew into my arms with her legs around me as we held each other tight in an embrace. I couldn't believe it, but it was for real. Chitose was back in my arms again after a few weeks of being apart.

"Arnold...I'm so happy to be with you again."

"Chitose...I've missed you...and you girls, how did this come to be?"

"Well, Chitose was planned to get the reinforcements with Lester, but Forte insisted to take care of that instead." Mint replied.

"Although between us, she wanted you and Chitose to see each other, just like a couple." Ranpha smirked. "I made sure to use my fortune telling so it could work."

I sighed. "You and your fortune telling, that hasn't changed I see."

"Except for my height." Vanilla said with a smile.

"Anyways, you two should spend some time together before the next day." Mint said. "We're going to meet with Tact to explain how we'll help rescue Milfie."

"Oh yeah, will you need me for that?" I asked.

"Not exactly, you still need to lead the Rune Angel Wing." Chitose replied. "Now, let's go somewhere more romantic."

I smiled at her. "I know just the place, the viewing park."

"Have fun you two." Ranpha smirked as we left the hanger.

Chitose and I walked to the viewing park and the night sky was on, we held our hands close and took in the view of the park, walking around before we sat at the bricked benches by the fountain with my right arm around her waist.

"Does this remind you of anything?" I asked her.

"Yes...we had a fountain like this back on the Elsior." Chitose replied. "You remember that?"

"Yep, although I don't think any of us used it, apart form the one time it switched on when Tact and Milfie kissed."

Chitose showed a bit of sadness, I could tell she was worried for her...we all were. "I hope we do get to rescue her soon."

"I'm sure you girls will...we're just so close now." I held her tight. "But for tonight, it's just you and me."

"Yes...our love for each other and nothing more." She looked at me with those turquoise eyes...I've missed those beautiful eyes.

I moved my head to hers and she did the same with her left hand around my neck and her right hand on my left hand. Finally, our lips met before locking into a passionate kiss...I had so missed kissing her, I felt like such a lucky man. I wonder if Kazuya and Nano will continue to build on their relationship when peace rolls around.

But for the time being, this was Chitose's and my time for love...here's to many more kisses and much more, Chitose...I love you.

That's the first route done and I feel satisfied with what I have put in.

Next chapter, it's the Kazuya and Kahlua/Tequila route where Arnold and Vanilla reunite after many years of being planets apart.
