Rock Out With You Socks Out:
(Mina takes everybody to the concert of her favorite IDOL)
Dann couldn't figure out why Mina would request part- time work at his family's cafe one day when his mother was going through applicants. She could have asked him about filling in for one of his brothers on day she didn't have school. Left his mother hire her for the front desk since she wasn't very good waitress Reika or kitchen hand like Mako. All she would do was stand behind the pastry display case with her best smile and greet who ever walked through the door. Which would get her paid by the hour and plus tips for actually begin cheerie and not faking nice to customers. Furthered upped the cafe reputation for having a lively new waitress with bright smile and kindness 'Kon'nichiwa'. Showed in the increase of cash flow they got that for pass month during their special autumn menu. All everyone was given a slight bonus in their paychecks made Mina squeeze Dann harder when given his usual hug.
She ended up doing odd jobs for most of her class mates at school, that ranged from babysitting younger siblings to walking a dog. Having a hard time handling the small stuff at first since she wasn't dog person and her and kids didn't get along. Didn't mean she gave up when she looked forward to being paid each time she finished one of these tasks. Ones that involved her needing to be a tutor for a certain school subject or help out with homework when asked. She borrowed Amelie's notes or had Andor act as private instructor all for free since he liked teaching others over getting paid. Ones that came to her were ones about fashion advice or someone needing her to delivery a love confession. Put to use with many a girl or guy needing to know what one should wear to their first date after notes was delivered. Anything else earn her pocket change she would spend on arcade games or crane machines, like she usual did.
Things got even more stranger when he found out from Hiddenite, that Mina used his cell phone, her cell phone and the house phone. To called into a morning radio show to win four tickets to some concert that was happening in Tokyo. She called and redialed that number to be lucky called number 14 when the host started accepting calls. In the living room her parents and brother had found her camping out with ringing phones on one side of her, and radio on the other. Mumbling to her about needing to win this over and over like a mantra before getting through. She made sure to scream yea to everything before being told she won the tickets and couldn't wait to get them. A private messenger would end up leaving her prize with the doorman of her parents apartment complex that day.

Angel had to cover his ears when she showed up at his house holding her tickets within her hands with this wide grin. Dressed oddly in Powder Blue haori over her usual clothing with a headband with name of her IDOl written across the center. Her tote purse that hung off her shoulder just matched her haori had blacken out line pose of whoever this person was. Their stage name beside them imprinted on the both sides and held a fan and strange flashlight with lit up dome. Left Angel to open the door still in an apron with ruffles on the edging and oven mitts on each of his hands. Allowing the excited Mina inside while informing her that she needed to be quiet since Dann had become sensitive to loud noises. Her banging on the door wasn't helping since she could have called them before coming over.
"Just keep the volume down, he's just suffering from sensory overload from this world's magical flow." Angel assured Mina. "He'll be better in a few days."
Mina covered her mouth to keep herself from screeching to loudly before asking about helping Angel with caring for Dann. She was turned down when told Il-Seong was nursing his brother while he was in the kitchen area making food. Left her to walk into the living room and find Dann laying on a pulled on sofa with strange crystal laying next to his head. She was carefully in removing her shoes and headband with just a whisper on her lips to ask how he was doing. Taking a seat close enough to his head to watch him open his eyes and notice brightest to his eyes that usual never there.
"You could be your own nightlight." Mina teased at his glowing eyes.
"More like battery with magic in him." Il-Seong corrected her.
He graced her barely with a smile when he rolled over upon hearing her voice that almost made him glow like center of her front bow. She notices when her own Star Power Stick started to take on a eerie luminescence without transforming her. Fell out of from sleeve of her haori when she went to fluff one of the pillows under his head. Would be picked up and placed near Dann's lepal pin on the ledge coffee table by Il-Seong as Mina notices other items. Hand bell she guessed was being used to call people when rung by Dann with half eaten cup of tea and familiar soup.
"You have any visitors? Besides Angel being here to watch you." She asked Dann.
Il-Seong mumbled about someone with long white hair and glowing blue eyes arriving with a pint of chicken soup, made from Japanese recipe. A few supplies one to handle sensory overload were also brought by this person. Had Mina bouncing off the sofa cushions despite Dann getting nauseated from shaking of when she got to her feet. Il-Seong ended up having to pick up the bucket kept next to the the bed since Dann was found in this state. Making her way toward to the kitchen to find Angel in middle of turning oven off and about to pull something out. Giving Mina enough attention to answer her question about who was else was here besides himself, Ammar, and Dann.
"I think your brother is still here." He tried to remember if he was still here.
He then told her that Ammar moved into the basement while his new place was currently under going restructuring. Seemed he was in middle of entertaining a guest in form of Hiddenite since they met at that 3- day training camp. Had Mina kindly asking Angel where he would find entrance to the basement while keeping her angry in check. Was given as he busied himself with taking out two trays of muffins with the smell of mint and chocolate flowing off them. Caught Mina when she inhaled their scent and didn't pay attention to someone entering the kitchen.
"Just up here to check in on..." Underwear clad Hiddenite stopped talking.
Being leered at by Mina was something he gotten used to since their mother always used that look on their father whenever they fought. Just doing it while wearing a pair of mini boxer shorts with print of a butterflies in flight on the front. Rest of hard muscle that made up his body from his sculptured torso made up pectorals and abs covered in light dusting of hair. Formed a trail that was cut off at the waistline of the undergarment he decide to pull on when he came up here.
"What do you want?" He asked owner of the leer. "I am using a few days off to spend with Ammar while we figure a few things out."
"Meaning your moving out?" She figured.
"Yes, your not here to play nurse?" He looked over her shoulder.
"What's wrong with helping Angel and Ammar out?" She huffed back.
Angel ended up sighing with sight of siblings auguring while he was portioning the fresh muffins into a Tupperware container. He sealed and placed within a bag he was packing for a trip to go see Mako at her parents apartment this evening. Trying his best to not interrupt what was pointless conversation he never had with anyone of his siblings. He ended taking a calming breath with his steady hand combing through his hair as he slowly turned toward the two.
"Can You Please Cut It Out!" He tried to keep his voice from being not loud. "I don't have time this! One of our guardian wolves is watching my sick brother. Is not going to be enough since I have plans for this evening with Mako's family. "
"..." Mina went quiet.
"Ammar and I can take care of him while your away." Hiddenite offered. "Mina can keep your guardian wolf company."
Angel agreed to his terms, only if they text him every hour and a half about anything that goes wrong with Dann or Il-Seong. Making it clear Dann will feel better after the excess magic he's been absorbing in his system dissipates, or gets used up. Mina helped him pull on his jacket and cross shoulder bag as he checked for his keys and his communicator. Out the door he was escorted by her with her promising the house would be mentioned while he was away. He held her to that vow with the light above her head flickering on and off a few times before he closed up the door. Lock to the knob closing on it's own further creeped Mina out to a point she slowly backed away from the self locking door.
"You witnessed his gifts?" Il-Seong asked with Dann sitting up and watching her. "Sit it's time to talk."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Angel ended up taking back ways to the training station when he popped in his bluetooth ear piece and tried to call Mako. Concentrating on electrical field all around him when he turned a corner and waved to someone in passing. Ringing he got on her end of the line didn't last long when her brother ended up answering and asking where he was. Mako could be heard in the background as they talked wanting her brother to hand over the phone to her. Never happen when Tremolite moving around the whole time to further speak with Angel before his were to arrived. Mostly one doing most of the talking as the other was force to listen and say yes or grunt his response with rolled eyes. Counting the step he needed to take when he got closer and closer to the train station to get to the right line.
"Yes, I understand." Angel would hang up.
He sighed still unable to handle the over protectiveness that came from Tremolite when ever he wanted to inter act with Mako. Left him to spend the rest of his small trip from entering the station by getting a hold of his step- mother and father. Informing them of the change of the guard at home how he'll be late coming as he purchased his ticket to get pass the gates. Boarding a train and keeping hands of creeps from touching him that become the problem for him. Highschool to college girls always were the worst when laying hands on him to trying to get his number by flirting. Made him turn his head the other way as he removed his ear piece to take in the passing sites through train's windows. Taking in the silence he was given before he would have to get off at the stop and start walking again.
To be surprised when Mako would ran up to him after he got off the train by ambushing him in a sweater and over grown scarf. Stating she got excited about him coming over to official meet her parents while her brother made a decent meal. She snuck out the house just to come down here and greet him without the watchful eyes of her brother. Got her handed the sealed tupperware container filled with his homemade muffins from his bag being handed over to her. Had her gushing about the recipe he used and when he could get the it to her before the next time they met. Earned her arm for their walk back to her family's apartment complex with them chatting about starting a cooking video. Stopped when Mako noticed the sight of a face just standing outside the building and looking upward.
"Mateo Kobashigawa?" She spoke a name outloud.
This person jumped when she spoke their name before they slowly turned to Angel and Mako with worry on their face. His hands were trembling with a USB Charging Station tightly held within his fingers as he tried to muster up a smile. Got a raised eye brow from Angel asking Mako if this Mateo was alright while Mako invited this Mateo with them inside. Who nervously nods their head up and down when they struggled to use actual words to answer her offer. Behind the pair this Mateo would walk with their head looking around the place and shaky step each time a foot was out down.
"Are you alright?" Angel would ask him directly.
"I cam to return this Mr. Tremolite." This Mateo finally gave the reason their were here.
Mako remembered her brother looking for his USB Charging Station last time he returned from a lecture on ways to gather intell. Doing a handful of favors for their father on other side of the Japan for about three weeks he was away. Who knew he caught the eyes of someone from the region to the point they came all the way here to return a item.
"How did you and my brother meet?" Mako asked with Angel listening. "I never seen my brother make any friends."
"He's hasn't been really friendly to me." Angel mumbled.
Mako had his arm slightly pull as a reminder that her brother was behaving this way until trust was gained and a bond was formed. Left him to apologize for his attitude before he grew silent and let Mako take over most of the talking. Only pressing the button for the elevator when patted on the shoulder by her when she reacted to something Mateo said. Pulling his back and listen to the ding of the elevator that would tell them that doors were opening for them to enter. Took place in about half hour with Angel standing silently beside Mako and this guest until door slid open. In the three of them would all walked with them taking opposite ends of the small space and Mako pressing the button.
"I just hope Tremolite and my parents don't bother you about not reaching my next upgraded version..." Mako whispered to Angel. "...as a senshi..."
"Lets focus on here and now." Angel took her hand in his own.
She smiled lifting tupperware container that held his muffins with her saying how this could enough of a distraction of topic. Being that her mother fell in love with the last homemade dish he brought over a few weeks ago during his last visit. First spoonful of a his soup had her completely giddy with excitement for wanting the recipe he used. Which he would grant, since he found a kinship in Makoto since both had impressive cooking skills and trying new recipes.
"We're here." Mateo pointed out the their floor coming up.
Mako ended tightly clenching Angel's hand until his skin become a new shade of blue which he didn't notice or stop her from doing. Since the doors sliding open to reveal a plush carpeted hallway lined with doors that led to a suite of rooms forming one residence. One these was called home by Mako with Angel and Mateo being guided after stepping out. She acted as a guide on where to turn and where to walk straight when she pulled her keys from her pocket. Going on about the collection of plants and flora her mom was going to have in every room would seem excessive. Followed by a warning that Angel or Mateo had a pollen allergy, they need to speak up now befor she opened the door. She got a head nods from both of them was all she needed to know before swinging the door wide open. Welcoming them into a open floor plan of a living room with Terrence and kitchen/ dining area on one side and bedrooms on other side.
Her brother could be found walking around the MANY plants kept in the space of the dining area with watering can in hand, Answering his sister that she just missed their parents daily phone call stating they weren't going to be home dinner. She and her guests were just going to have to go on with out them since he had plans to go out. Ended with he looked up and saw that one of these Guests came in the form of Angel and way his sister held his arm. Had him taking a calming breath while the watering can was put down on the table with steps he took toward her. Stopping close enough to bow down toward her height and ask what she was doing with Angel before she answered. By letting go of Angel and reaching for Mateo's arm and pulling him more forward to face her brother a shw wore a smile.
"Mateo Kobashigawa, my brother." She looked between them. "Tremolite Kino, a admirer that traveled a long distanced to see you."
Her brother blinked a few times when his eyes fell upon a face he hadn't seen since his series of lectures about gathering intell. Angel and Mako would end up escaping to the kitchen to see what milk was waiting for them in the fridge. Turned in a small tour of a mid- sized kitchen out from Better Homes and Gardens magazine done by a talkative Mako. Who stopped by a small drying rack next to the sink to pull two glasses while Angel put the muffins down. He followed instructions on where to find the milk carton in the fridge he opened at request of Mako to help out. Stopping when the sight of strange piece of fruit on the second shelf caught his eye and had him asking about where it was found. She walked to his side and spoke of how her mother was always visiting farmer's markets around Crystal Tokyo. Buying produce to make all kinds of dishes she usual services to her fellow senshi and her husband's friends.
To only grab Angel by his arm and pull him away from the strange piece of fruit when she noticed when it
started it move. She then pushed him to the ground as quickly as she could when this fruit started to spin around in place in their presence. To end up hovering in place when it shot out of the fridge toward a path that led it to the center of the dining room. Mako shouted at her brother to watch out for the Daimon pod near him and Mateo when she got to her feet. Tremolite slowly looked toward what was only a few feet from the top of his head by shifting his eyes in pod's direction. Slowly lifted his hand toward Mateo's shoulder with a plan to get him out of the way before pod implanted. Hadn't happen fast enough when pod stopped turning when the USB Charging Station dropped from Mateo's hands.
"I need you to run out of here." Tremolite advised Mateo.
"but I..." They tried to speak.
No time to finish a sentence was given to them when told to get out of here without much understanding about what was happening. Since the pod would end up turning the Charging Station into a humanoid outlets with limbs and a head. USB cable sticking out of back end was where the black star could be found at the end part of the tail. Word heart snatcher being repeated at those yellow electric colored irises looked between pairings for potential heart crystals.
"You sure they can't sence which one of us carry a pure heart crystal?" Mako whispered loudly to her brother.
"Pretty Much!" Tremolite tried to raise his voice.
"What are you taking about?" Mateo asked looking between the two.
Topic quickly changed between Tremolite and Mateo about either one knowing a teleportation spell that left Angel sighing. He ended wrapping an arm around her waist before stating needed to make a b- line for front door when he said say. Mako openly objected with her brother staring at Angel when he started to reach for his lapel pin on collar of his coat. Skin of his fingers tips about to trigger his own transformation when nimble fingers that gave off a static charge. Pulled him right onto her lips in a o- shape with his bottom caught between what he could future out was moist lips. He tasted infused passionfruit with hints of pineapple bits and hibiscus pass from her lips to his from her own. Put him into a state of shock and unable to move like he wanted when sight of green skirt moved passed him. He blinked a few times at the sounds of Mako yelling at the Daimon while her brother grabbed Mateo by the arm, and pulled him behind him.
Mateo wasn't given a chance to stick around or get answers to must of his questions when guided back to the front door. Be forced opened and he was forced through with a barely a good bye before the door was slammed and locked in his face. Tremolite ended up relived he didn't have a civilian to worry about since his sister was charging in. He had to save her from having her heart crystal from being pulled out by a Daimon, she was currently distracting. Trying to figure out what she was to do by allowing that thing chase her around their mother's kitchen without being touched. Space was limited and didn't give someone a means to hide properly or move around as much as he wanted. She was sliding across counter tops and dodging the plug tail in the limited space she had to move around.
"Not how I pictures her working in a kitchen." Tremolite ran back.
He ended up whistle just loud enough to pull Angel from his stupor and even gain the eerie glowing eyes of the Daimon. Who swung their tail at him when Mako was corner near the sink and where their mother kept her good china. The black star started to take on a dark glow at pointed toward Tremolite's chest with distance between the tail and him. Getting shorter and shorter until Mako grabbed the expendable nozzle from beside the faucet and pressed the handle. Spraying the Daimon in ounce after ounce of luke warm water while calling it every insult she could come up with. Worked in her favor over her brother when Angel got to his feet and finally triggered his transformation. Creating a sphere of pure electrical energy around his person that blinded everyone in the small space, but Mako.
Faded when when he came running at the Daimon in armor plates made from electro metal plates. Single emblem of 3- teir lightening bolt was on shoulder plates. His boots had metal tip on the toes and heels with lightening bolt charm. These metallic green wrist bands were wrapped snuggly around his wrists. Had a armored headband wrapped around half of his head with emblem of lightening bolt on the front. Crossing his arms over his chest as he slammed into the Daimon. To only have its tail wrap around one of his band clad wrist and throw him into living room. Sofa acted as a cushion in catching his form instead of his going through the glass of sliding doors that led to terrace.
"Let me return the favor." He shouted with one his hands taking hold of the end of Daimon's tail.
He jumped off the sofa and pulled the Daimon behind him with the strength that his new form came with as moved toward the terrace. Stopping far enough to open the door and pull the Daimon out on to the terrace before his angered filled eyes. Just the Daimon's didn't land excellently on it's metal prong shaped feet like Knight Lightenen had planned. Since it ended up falling backwards over the railing with out disengaging it's tail from secure grip he had on it. Resulted in him being pulled over and down with the Daimon that sent Mako running after him with fear in her heart. She stopped at the edge of the terrace's dented up railing in a downward direction with tears spilling from her eyes. Fear of finding a blooding and charred mess flooded her mind to the point she didn't see the shape of a luminous horse with huge, butterfly- like, transparent wings and shade of blue to it's fur with watery eyes. Appear.
Flying in a upward with familiar knight on it's face with reins in hand and relieved he didn't fall to his death with a injured Daimon. To only have his heart go a mile a minute when Mako climbed pass the railing as she called his name. He went wide eyed at what she was about to do to get to him on the back of his ceffyl dwr with her StarPower Stick in hand. She would ended up called nuts him when he ended up flying as close as he could to the building. Lacing the reins of his ceffyl dwr in fingers of one hand as other stretched out toward her with assurance on her safety.
"Your crazy!" He yelled.
"Coming from someone on a flying horse dressed as a knight." She answered back.
They weren't able to carry on the conversation when she ended up jumping after insisting he wasn't going to finish this Daimon alone. Somehow become the cause of her transformation to original fuku consisting of a white leotard with a Forest green collar that has interlocking leaf patterns and two electric yellow strips, her shoulder pads become transparent flower petals, and a green skirt, along with a forest green bow on the back becomes enlarged and lengthened. Heel to her ankle boots become wooden, emerald earrings in the shaped of hearts, sparkling elastic band on her ponytail gains a heart charm, and a choker with emerald heart stone in the center. Her gloves were elbow length with elbow fittings. Her brooch worn on the middle of her chest bow becomes a heart shape. Landed safely with him on his ceffyl dwr.
"He got a name?" She asked feeling the electrical flow from this ceffyl dwr.
"Spark." He answered.
She excitedly wrapped her glove clad arms around his waist when he adjusted the reins back into his hands to direct Spark. Flap of wings and head nod got them tracking the now limping Daimon from where it landed on the ground. To drag mark it left when he moved away looking for someone to extract a heart crystal and a place heal it's form.
"Can you get us into close enough range to lunch any attacks?" She asked with small antenna rising out the center of her tiara.
"Give me a minute." He accommodated her.
She ended up being given the perfect chance to cross one of her arms over her chest with her pointer and thumb lengthening. Crackling grew from the connection the small piece of metal had to her tiara up to the thin tip. Released a mighty surge of white colored thunder into the sky above their heads like a single to stars above. Since within a few seconds a incredibly powerful thunder came raining down from 844.33 meters away. Warmth of this thunder reminded her of mother and stories of raw electrical energy planet Jupiter held. Her had focusing her eyes on the sight of the limping Daimon with angry in her eyes and hurt within her heart. "White Lightening Strike."
Some how extra energy she brought fourth some how acted as a fuel for what Knight Lightenen could do without his hands. He just needed to straighten his posture and clear his mind with only the limping Daimon among his thoughts. Making his muscles tensed to ends of his toes filled with the new found electrical source of vitality. "Shock Wave!"
Sight that created to destroy one Daimon on back of a horse with huge butterfly wings was going to be hard to explain for Tremolite. He stood on other side of the opened terrance doorway with broom in hand and scarf acting as a headband.
