Gomen gomen gomen! I got writer's block for the fifth time in a row. I swear someone needs to invent a cure for that…
Anyway, to give you a little plot hint, Ari is connected to the Zoid Eve…

Chapter Three: Blast From The Past! The Return of the Zoid Eve!
(Ari's POV)
I looked up nervously
as the door opened and Blake walked in. I had every right to be
nervous…I mean, heck, there aren't many people who can capture
even a lone Organoid, let alone one with its partner. And I still had
absolutely no idea where I was.
To make things worse, I
had dropped my locket on the floor a good distance away, and I
couldn't hide it anywhere. Despite looking around frantically, I
could see no means of escape and only stopped looking when the figure
at the door spoke. "Who are you?"
I knew then that I was
definitely screwed. Judging by the tone of his voice, if I didn't
spill I wasn't going to get off to lightly since I had broken in,
so why not tell? He wouldn't believe me anyway. I gulped, then
turned to face him. "My name is Arianna Blancmanche."
It didn't quite have
the effect I'd expected. Blake paled considerably before resuming
his normal composure and narrowing his eyes. "You're lying!"
I shook my head,
backing up into the wall a bit more (which was not very easy since I
was already squashed against it in the first place).
Blake frowned. "If
you're not lying, then prove it. How can I be sure you're who you
say you are?"
Nope. He still hadn't
changed much, then.
Blake, however, got there before I did.
"Hey! That's mine!"
He didn't seem to hear me, which was probably because he had just opened my locket and was looking at the picture inside it with what could only be shock. Right when he was about to speak, a message came over the intercom asking for him to report to some lady called Sandra. Blake turned to leave, then remembered the locket and tossed it to me before exiting. I sat in my corner, still wondering where the heck I was.
(Mint's POV)
I walked down the halls in my new uniform, following a younger boy named Luke. He looked even younger than I was, though I was careful not to say anything. It probably wouldn't be very good for my health.I was about to ask him another question when an announcement sounded calling us all to the meeting room at the top floor.
When we were there, Sandra set us another task-steal a case of jewels that RD from Mach Storm would be transporting the next morning. I couldn't help but notice the look on Blake's face when the name RD was mentioned and decided I had better not get in his way. My thoughts were interrupted by Sandra asking Blake if he had found out anything about the person who broke in the other night. Blake, who had been leaning against he wall with his eyes closed, opened them and spoke for what seemed like the first time today. "Only that her name is Arianna Blancmanche."
He was looking directly at me when he said it, knowing I had come to the same conclusion as he had.
Could it be? I wondered. I decided to pay this girl a visit as soon as possible, and maybe get some answers.
(Normal POV)
As Ari slept she dreamed of a Zoid…a giant dinosaur-like Zoid with glaring red eyes destroying everything…Deathsaurer…
Ari slept unsteadily on, dreaming of a past long forgotten…
