"Are you crazy, Akari?" Jun screamed.
"It is rather surprising, isn't it?" Hisoka chuckled, "Then again, this is Akari we're talking about here."
"Why would you bring this annoying brats here?!" Jun asked angrily, glaring at Yu and Iris.
"I-I'm s-so sorry!" Yu's friend bowed his head, apologising to Jun.
"Can't we be just friends?" I asked Jun, hoping for him to say yes even if it's a small chance he would.
"Akari-senpai and Takehiko-sama opened Yu's eyes!" Yu said, "Yu will try her best to be good to you all!"
Jun raised his eyebrow, doubting Yu's word. This is going to be a long day. Welp, time to watch the next matches!
Opening 1: Sense of Wonder
sousa WE CAN DO IT! motto hatena darakede ikō
(That's right, we can do it! Even if our lives are filled with unanswered questions)
Akari appeared facing to the left. She turned her face to the front and gave a smile and a salute then disappeared. Prince Charming appeared facing to the right then turns to the front to give a smile as well. The background is the buddyfight stage at Aibo Academy.
fushigi eno tobira wa me no mae ni aru
(The miraculous door is right before our eyes.)
The screen turned black for a second then shows Akari and Prince Charming in front of a strange double door. Their hands in each surface of the door and pushed it to reveal a bright light. The two covered their eyes using their arm.
kono sekaijū ga WONDER LAND
(This entire world is a wonderland.)
The light dissipates as the two uncovered their eyes to see Wanda, Jun, Hiroki and Hisoka talking to each other. Alice is seen chasing Dorothy while Jeanne and Soushi watched the two run. Akari and Prince Charming walked towards the group. The current background is a grass field.
bokura wa mō sudeni WONDER ringu
(We're already wondering!)
They noticed the two going near them. The group stopped what they were doing, run up to the pair and smiled and talked to them.
doki doki ga waku waku ni nattara WONDER furujan
(When anticipation turns into excitement, it'll be wonderful, won't it?)
The group is seen to be laughing when all of a sudden Akari looked up to the sky. The group did the same and looked up as well. The camera went upwards then stops to show the title "Future Card Buddyfight: Lost Fairy Tale". Then the title shone bright.
jibuntte dare darō? riarutte nan darō?
ashita wa doushite mienain darō?
(Who am I? And what is real?
Why can't we see tomorrow?)
The light dissipates to reveal Akari, in her room, looking at herself sadly at the mirror. The reflection reveals to be her younger self looking happy. Someone placed their hand on her shoulder. She turned around to reveal it was Prince Charming who did then smiled at her. Akari smiled back then looks at the sky. The background changed from inside her room to outside somewhere when she turned around.
koukishin no bun dake leberu UP shiteku
kimi to boku no EVERYDAY sutetamon janai desho?
(The more curiosity, the more we achieve higher levels. Our everyday together is pretty fun, don't you think?)
The camera transitioned to show the group consisting of Wanda, Jun, Hiroki, Hisoka, Dorothy, Alice, Jeanne and Soushi at the castle with Jun fixing their decks while they talk. Two shadow figures walks passed the camera almost as if intersecting. Akari noticed this and looks from side to side to see no one. But she looked sad as if she knows who passed by.
oshiete Sense of Wonder
(Tell me! Sense of Wonder.)
The screen is as if it's blinking while showing the memories of a younger Akari with her family, friends and two unknown children.
jinsei wa shugyou nari
(Teach it! Life is full of teachings!)
The blinking transition stopped and showed a determined Akari looking at her "Happily Ever After" Impact card. Prince Charming placed a hand on her shoulder. She looks at him. Prince Charming gave her a nod as if he understood her. Akari smiled and opened the door. The pair entered there, running.
dakara WE CAN MAKE IT motto hatena sagashi ni ikō
(So we can make it! Let's go search for more mysteries!)
The camera transition is as if it's turning, showing each characters. Akari slashing monsters with Prince's Sword, Legacy, Prince Charming dodging and countering, Jun using the White Hare's Pocket Watch to summon a portal so that he wouldn't get hit by the incoming attack from a monster, Alice jumped kicks the monster hitting his head, Wanda casting a spell and Dorothy punching a monster. The background is the buddyfight stage.
arifureta kotaeja gaman dekinai
(I won't be satisfied with the typical answer.)
The spinning of the camera stopped and Akari was shown, who stares at the two older figures in her memory. She run towards them.
mahō ni kakatta WONDER LIFE bokura no mirai wa WONDER ringu.
(A wonder life that's under a spell.
Our future is full of wonder!)
The background changed once more. This time, it's Aibo Academy. Someone tapped her shoulder. She looks to her side to see Prince Charming who did that. He gave her a reassuring smile. Jun, Alice and Hisoka also gave her a reassuring smile. To her other side was none other than Wanda, Dorothy and Hiroki who also gave her a smile.
shitai koto shite ikiteru houga ganbarerujan!
(It's better to live your life doing the things you like, because then, you'll be able to work harder! Let's wonder!)
Akari started to run. The others followed her.
Let's Wondering!
Akari suddenly jumped upwards with the characters still running after her and freeze in position."Aww! Too bad that Tetsu lost. Yu was rooting for him too," Yu sulked, "Yu wants the elementary team to win! At the very least GaoGao, kitty boy won and ninja boy!"
"Yeah! Go elementary division! Whoo!" Iris cheered, then proceeded to eat a piece of takoyaki.
"Did you see the look on Mr. Loser President's face?"
"Yeah! It was priceless!" Yu and Iris laughed so loud that people started to give them confused and annoyed looks for maybe being too noisy as we ate the snacks my mother prepared which consisted of takoyaki, sandwiches, mochi and a vegetable salad.
"Ummmm...Akari...," Hiroki looks at me, shooting me with a weird look. Not just him but the others as well.
"I'll just cut down to the chase. What the heck are the brats doing here with us?!" Jun asked, annoyed at ermmm...the duo pranksters' presence.
"Giee!" Yu's brown haired friend screeched, hiding behind Yu out of fear of Jun.
I just laughed awkwardly as a response. Hopefully, they will get along. But as far as I'm concerned, I can feel a war incoming. I hope I'm wrong.
"I want to get to know Yu, Iris and Yu's friend more," I answered then I turned my head to look at Yu's friend, "Ummm...who are you again?"
"I'm H-Haru...Haru Kobayashi. I-It's ni-nice t-to me-meet y-you," Haru introduced himself.
"Honestly, Akari. You're too kind for your own good," Jun sighed out of frustration.
"Akari has a kind heart," Alice pointed out.
"Akari-senpai, you're funny!" Yu giggled, "Yu just told Haru's name earlier."
"She's right," Prince Charming sided with Yu.
"I can't help it," I sighed, "This is a condition I need to live with."
"Hey! No bullying my bff!" Wanda exclaimed, "It's something
"I'm truly blessed to have a kind buddy like her!" Prince Charming said in an appreciative tone of voice.
"Yu is so lucky to meet you two," Yu said, sighing dreamily while peering at us.
"No more being a bad girl, okay?" Prince Charming told Yu in a cute way which made Yu melt.
"Aye, aye, captain!" Yu responded enthusiastically, giving him a salute.
"Oh yeah. Did you know where the erm...weird one went to?" Dorothy interjected.
Oh yeah. Where did Hisoka go?
"Should we look for him?" Jeanne asked.
"Nah. He said that he has something to do so he can't come," Hiroki informed us.
"When did the two of you get close?" I asked since I'm quite outdated. Either that or I'm not really aware.
"When you were really busy, we would usually hang out, fix our decks, give tips and so on and so forth," Hiroki shrugged.
"Wah! We're out of snacks!" Yu screamed.
"No worries!" My mother suddenly appeared out of nowhere, bringing us another plate of takoyaki and sandwiches, "I'm here to save the day!"
"You're the best, mom!" I gave her a thumbs up. She gave me a thumbs up as well.
It's sad that Hisoka won't be able to be with us. I hope he's doing alright.
"Why did you suddenly disappear on them like that, Hisoka?" My buddy, Soushi, asked while we strolled around the academy, "You left before the final match for the day is over."
"Don't you find the tournament strange?" I answered Soushi's question with my own.
"You mean the disappearance of Genma Todoroki?" Soushi guessed.
"Yeah. That one," I said, "Genma Todoroki...the leader of the Seifukai...a highly respected leader...a serious person...I'm sure that he's not the type to just disappear so that rules out him running away from the tournament which can only mean one thing..."
"You don't mean..."
I nodded my head, "As much as I hate to say this but there is a possibility that Genma's been kidnapped."
"But why would they do that? And how's that even possible?!" My buddy asked, "Isn't he strong?"
I stop on my tracks and look at Soushi with an "Are you serious?" face. Soushi sweatdrops at my expression. I start to explain, "Genma disappeared the day the tournament began. It cannot be the days before the tournament since I've seen him a couple of times. So it can only mean that he disappeared today. And why? It's because it looks like that they want strong contenders to disappear."
"Then what about my other question?"
"I'm getting to that," I sighed, "It's absurd to get the Seifukai leader caught off guard since he's fully trained. However, normally, it would be even impossible to just call out the Seifukai leader for a chat...unless you have the power to call him out."
"So you mean to say...is that why we're here in the academy?" Soushi got my message exactly.
I nod my head in response, "Let's get going to the student body's room, shall we?"
"How can this be?! I can't believe I lost to a...a...kid!" Shido vented out. Sofia just sighed.
They are right in front of the door. Shido slid the door to the right, revealing Hisoka and Soushi seated on the couch.
"Hiya, Mr. President, Ms. Vice President," Hisoka greeted, giving them a smile.
"Gah!" Shido squealed.
"What are you two doing here?" Sofia asked in an annoyed voice.
"We're just here to...ask some questions," Hisoka answered, standing up from the couch and walking towards Shido until he was a few feet away. Soushi did the same, "So, where's the Seifukai leader?" He asked in a serious tone, glaring at the student body president.
"What on earth are you talking about?" Shido acted innocent but Hisoka saw right through him.
"Isn't it weird that the right hand of Genma was the one who participated instead of himself?" Hisoka pointed out.
"W-Well, it couldn't be helped. Genma was missing after all," Shido responded.
"I've thought long and hard about the possibilities and found out the answer. You have something to do with his disappearances!" Hisoka said with conviction, pointing his finger at Shido, "Genma is too strong to be kidnapped and I've seen him a couple of times before the tournament day so I know that he can't be missing. So there can be one possibility: someone asked them to meet up. From what I know, no one can invite the Seifukai leader to have a chat or something like that unless you're a Seifukai member yourself or at least what I can deduct or if you have the power to summon them. Of course, teachers are out which can only mean one thing: You, the student body, is responsible for his disappearance since you're the only possibility left!"
"Sofia!"
"On it."
Sofia presses something on her tablet, making the hatch open. However...
"Do you really think I wouldn't notice the trap door," Hisoka chuckled, holding his core gadget as the smoke became more apparent to them, "I've already prepared just in case. Never underestimate a detective's will."
Along with Soushi, they flew right through the window.
"Sofia, capture them!" Shido ordered Sofia, panicking since Hisoka may report it to the Seifukai.
"Da."
"Am I good or am I good?" Hisoka chuckled while Soushi simply sweatdropped as they flew.
"We're almost there now," Soushi said, pointing to the Seifukai's clubhouse.
"You're not going anywhere!"
Out of nowhere, chains suddenly bind the two.
"What the?"
"Hisoka and his buddy, captured," Sofia said in a monotone voice, appearing in front of them with longer hair, holding a glowing card.
Hisoka's eyes widened. It's not because of the predicament they are in. In fact, he found it amusing that he wanted to laugh. What really caught his eye was the glowing card which he thought that it only meant one thing...
"Di-Did you just bring that card to reality?" Hisoka deduced.
"B-But that's impossible unless you have the same ability as the Boy Wonder Cop," Soushi added.
"Don't worry, you'll forget about it soon enough."
"Huh?" I looked around the area, "Soushi, why are we at school again?"
I tried to think about it but nothing came to my mind.
"I don't know. I can't remember," Soushi responded, looking at daze.
"We were supposed to do something but I guess we've finished it," I said, still lost in thought. Is Akari's forgetfulness rubbing on me? Hmmmm...
"Since we've finished what we came here to do, want to go to Akari's place?" Soushi suggested.
"Yeah, let's not think about this," I said.
With that, Soushi activating my buddy skill, I fly alongside Soushi who's riding a dragon to Akari's place.
"You just let them go?!" Shido screamed at Sofia.
"Da," Sofia responded, not flinching at Shido's behavior.
"Wah! What are we going to do?! If they find out-"
"No need to worry," Sofia cutoff Shido, "I made sure that they've forgotten already."
Buddyfight Corner:
Wanda: This is Wanda Yumetochi...
Dorothy:...and Dorothy...
Both:...in today's Buddyfight Corner!
Wanda: Today, we're going to talk about Hisoka Satou...erm...the weird one in the group.
Dorothy: I'm still thinking for a reason on why you guys hangout with him.
Wanda: I actually don't have a clue. But anyways, Hisoka is our classmate in Aibo Academy and he's thirteen years old. He's quite known for his deduction skills in the school that people who lost something for example...they come to him and he finds it in no time so he's dubbed as the "Detective of Aibo".
Dorothy: And his buddy is Dragon Knight, Soushi...I find it weird what Soushi saw in Hisoka.
Wanda: Ditto.
Dorothy: Anyways, we're out of time! This is Dorothy...
Wanda:...and Wanda Yumetochi...
Both:...Signing off!
