"Everyone, lets do our best to defeat those enemies." Sumeragi Lee Noriega ordered.

"Setsuna f. Seiei, deru…"

"Kyrios beginning operation…"

"Lockon Stratos, Nerai utsuze!"

"Tieria Erde, Ittekimasu."

We fought altogether just like that time. The spirit of teamwork never left us. And with lockon, my strength will never vanish.

After the fight we returned to the ship.

"Good work guys…" Noriega-san smiled warmly.

"Well… that's because of our new young meister, Setsuna f. Seiei!"

Lockon patted Setsuna in the head.

"Hehehe~"

"Please stop that…"

"Eh? What a killjoy you are…"

Lockon smiled and Setsuna continued to blush.

I asked myself if this is real or if I'm just dreaming. It's like a movie that replayed from the very beginning. And I'm the one who was watching the entire story.

"TI-E-RIA…" lockon clung on me.

"Stop being all quiet and cool! Help me to make Setsuna turn into a cute soft boy like you."

That's right. This is real. I'm with him right now. He's right in front of me.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ

Even Veda doesn't have records of what happened. It's like a new born innovator that contains newly arrived details.

I went to my room after visiting Veda.

I saw that my door was opened and looks like someone entered my room.

And it was-

"Yo… sorry to intrude to your room. It's just my room smells like a dead rat, I can't take it."

Lockon was in my bed spinning haro like a ball on his finger. I closed my door then.

"Oi… its ok… for me to stay here?" he placed haro on top of head.

"You're already lying in my bed aren't you?" I replied w/ my annoyed tone.

"Eh? Really! When I told I'm going to stay here, I mean the whole night."

He continued to spin haro on his finger.

"Lockon. Lockon. Haro di-dizzy. Stop. Stop it."

"That's fine as long your going to sleep on the floor." I demanded

"Whoo… harsh. But cute!"

In the past, he never entered my room. Plus we don't get along well. But when he tried saving me-

"Haro, be my pillow…"

"Eh. Eh. Eh?"

I finally understood what a 'team' is and how he treats his comrades.

"Why don't you get your pillow and futon in your room?"

"Eh? Ahh… okay, I'll get it then."

Lockon went back to his room and I sat to my bed. Haro was left with me.

I chuckled.

"Tieria. Tieria. Why. Why. You laugh. Laughed?"

"Nothing. You're just cute."

Haro rolled on my bed. He was yellow but got red.

". you're… you're… cuter… cuter…"

I grabbed him and patted his head, even though he only has head.

"Haro… I'll protect Lockon. We're not going to lose him this time."
