Yes, this is the Kairima story! The two newbies in the second half of season 1! Due to this, this takes place during Rima's first days at Seiyo, with a little moment at the end taking place before the start of the last story. Actually the ending is the beginning of the last story! So yeah, here's Kairima! Minna no Kokoro: UNLOCK!
It was Rima Mashiro's first day at Seiyo Academy. After being annoyed by some pink haired protagonist, she heard about this group called the Guardians, which is basically the student council. Somehow, the next day, she managed to get into it. She was called up to the stage by she guessed it was the fanboys' fault. Rima could live with this. She even got the title of the QUEEN'S CHAIR, which sounds cool as heck. Rima noticed that a green haired boy was joining the guardians with her, as the so called "JACK'S CHAIR". "Thank you, and have a nice day." said the blonde haired boy who called her up. He turned to Rima and the green-haired boy. "Mashiro-san, Sanjo-kun, please follow me." Rima and "Sanjo-kun" followed him. Somewhy, Rima couldn't help but to stare at the green haired boy. She spoke up. "Uh... hello?" "Nice to meet you. I'm assuming you're Rima Mashiro, right?" he said. Rima nodded. "My name is Kairi Sanjo" Kairi said. Rima smiled. "Nice to meet you, Kairi." She shyly turned around. She doesn't want anyone to see her smile. "It's okay" said Kairi.
The next day, Rima saw Kairi with a cage with three small rats in it. "Uh... Sanjo. What is this?" she asked. "My class pet rats" Kairi said, "I'm in charge of taking care of them for today." Kairi opened the cage and gave Rima one of the rats. "Cute, isn't it?" he said. Rima nodded. She slowly stroked it. "Do you... like small animals like these?" Rima asked. Kairi nodded. "Two years ago, I had a small fish." he told Rima. "What happened to it?" Rima asked. "It passed away. My sister and I prepared a burial for it" Kairi said. Just then, Rima noticed the pink haired girl she saw yesterday. Kairi stared at her. Rima gotten slightly jealous... "What? I'm not jealous of that girl!" she thought, "It's not like I like Kairi that way!" Kairi looked at her. "Are you okay?" he asked. Rima turned around. "Huh? I'm fine!" Rima said. "I think we better get going now." said Kairi. Rima put the rat back in the cage and Kairi closed it. They parted ways.
It was about two years later. Rima was currently dating someone else, same with Kairi. However, she couldn't help but think about that day. Since then, they had many bonding moments at Kairi's house. Kairi's sister almost accepted her as part of the family. "Rima Sanjo, that has a nice ring to it" she sometimes jokes about. Rima's "dates" with Nagihiko mostly consisted of fighting X-Eggs and X-Charas. These was one of those nights. After fighting another X-Chara, Rima and Nagihiko detransformed. "That was tiring" said Rima. "I know." said Nagihiko. Just then, Rima received a text. She read it, and it was from Kairi! "Rima-chan, I bought a pet rat the other day" "Nagi-kun. I have to go." she said. She ran off, willing to see Kairi and his new pets.
