One night later, Satellite L. Bridget was lying on his bed in a prison cell smoking a cigarette. Just then, he heard footsteps getting louder. He sat up and saw Young Kim standing on the side of the prison bars. "Satellite L. Bridget, your decision in sparing Miyagi has decided your fate," said Young. "If it was up to me, you'd already be dead, but it looks like it's your lucky day." He punched in the prison cell code on his pad which opened the bars as Satellite stood up and smooshed his cigarette with his foot. "But I'm putting my foot down! This behavior of yours has got to stop!" Young continued. "I understand your family put you through a lot of abuse as a kid, AND that you hate being touched, but that does not give you ANY right to take your anger out on all the other students."
Satellite walked up to his teacher and, pushing his face right up to Young's, furiously whispered, "You have...no...FUCKING idea what my family did to me..." He began to walk away, but Young grabbed his arm and said, "We're not done!" Young gave a tight enough grasp on Satellite's arm that he was unable to strike back. "Are you familiar with Aoi Kazuha?" Young asked the Pandora punk. "You know, the girl who almost got raped?"
"...I didn't try to rape her," countered Satellite.
"IT DOESN'T MATTER!" thundered Young. "If ANYTHING happens to her again...and she mentions your name...I WILL kill you! And I don't care if you're the one who did anything to her or not! Understand?"
Satellite winced in pain as he felt himself subdued by the teacher.
"UNDERSTAND?!" Young said in a louder tone.
"YES!" the Pandora punk finally answered.
At that moment, Young let him go and said, "Get outta my sight!"
And he did.
Satellite began walking home to his dormitory.
"Are you Satellite L. Bridget?"
Satellite stopped in his tracks and turned around to see a young red-haired man standing right behind him. "I'm Igor Bernstein," said the redhead, "the Guardian of Order."
Satellite withdrew his sword and held it to Igor's neck. "What do you want?" Satellite asked the redhead.
"Recently, I heard you've crippled an upperclassman and his three Limiters," the redhead said while pushing the sword out of the way, "and then attempted to rape another Limiter. Am I right?"
Satellite began to walk away since Igor apparently didn't know the WHOLE story. "I suggest you find yourself a Limiter," continued Igor. "Because tomorrow at noon, you will pay for what you've done..."
The two Pandora began to walk away from each other. But little did they know that Kaoru was in hiding and eavesdropping since he held his hand over his mouth in shock.
"Are you kidding me, Hiiragi-san?" Kazuha asked after he and Arturia heard the news from Kaoru.
"I WISH I was, Aoi-chan."
"Igor-senpai is the seventh-ranked third-year, even stronger than Miyagi-senpai," said Arturia.
"Aoi-chan, if the Untouchable King asks you to be his Limiter, you've gotta say, 'no,' to him," said Kaoru. "Understand?"
He and Arturia looked to wear Kazuha was standing but saw that she was gone. They looked out Arturia's bedroom and saw Kazuha rushing to the boy's dormitory.
"Aw man!" cried Arturia.
"WHY THE HELL IS THAT BROAD SUCH A SADIST?!" Kaoru screamed as he ripped out his hair.
Satellite sat in the bathtub in his dorm room, contemplating everything he experienced:
"I suggest you find yourself a Limiter," continued Igor. "Because tomorrow at noon, you will pay for what you've done..."
"Satellite L. Bridget," Kazuha asked after taking a deep breath, "would you please accept me as your Limiter?"
"If ANYTHING happens to her again...and she mentions your name...I WILL kill you! And I don't care if you're the one who did anything to her or not! Understand?"
"STOP IT! PLEASE! STOP!"
Satellite's eyes widened at the last memory. He stood up in the bathtub and bent over to hold himself against the bathroom wall. He took a deep sigh and then stepped out of the tub before getting a towel.
Kazuha arrived at the boy's dormitory. As she walked inside, she saw two Pandora boys walking down the hallway. "Excuse me," she asked the two boys, "do either of you know where Satellite-senpai's room is?"
The two boys gave her a look of terror...
Kazuha arrived in front of Satellite's room.
*KNOCK* *KNOCK* *KNOCK*
Satellite's door creaked open from Kazuha's knocking, so Kazuha stepped in. Satellite's room seemed pretty normal and had baby blue-colored walls; pretty soft place to live for some violent punk. She looked around and saw a magazine on his bed; it depicted a naked girl lying on a bed in a sexy matter with her hands over her breasts.
"A porno!" exclaimed Kazuha silently. She picked it up and it felt like something was inside the pages. Then she started giggling as memories flashed through her mind:
(Flashback)
"Hey, big brother," Kazuha asked as she tugged her older brother's shirt while he was napping on the bed.
"Huh, what's up, Kazuha?" Kazuya asked as he woke up.
"What's this?" Kazuha held up a magazine; the cover showed a naked girl wearing an apron and chopping up an eggplant.
Terrified, Kazuya grabbed his porno and yelled, "Where'd you find this?" to his sister.
"Uh, in your dresser," his sister answered.
"Kazuha, you shouldn't be looking in other people's stuff without their permission, okay?" Kazuya yelled in a stern tone.
(End of Flashback)
*CLICK* *CREEK*
Kazuha was brought back to her senses as she heard a door open. She turned around and saw Satellite standing outside the bathroom, wearing only a towel around his waist.
"S-Satellite-senpai!"
"W-What are you..." Just then, Satellite saw Kazuha holding his porno in her hands. Terrified, he lunged at her screaming, "NO! PLEASE DON'T OPEN THAT MAGAZINE!"
*SLIP* *CRACK* *BOOM* *THUD*
Kazuha had fallen onto her butt. When she opened her eyes, she saw Satellite standing right in front of him holding the magazine in his hand; his towel was the closest to Kazuha's embarrassed eyes. Just then, the towel came loose and fell off. Feeling it fall off, Satellite nervously looked down and saw the glans of his erect penis poking Kazuha's nose. And then...
"...KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
*BAM*
Screaming, Kazuha terrifyingly kicked the Pandora punk in the crotch.
"I am so terribly sorry," Kazuha said after a long awkward period of silence between her and the punk; she was kneeling away from him as well. Turning around, she saw the punk covering himself up with a blanket and blushing in embarrassment. "Heh," Kazuha thought, "he looks kinda cute when he doesn't look like a punk."
"W-What do you want?" asked the Pandora punk.
"What do I want?" asked Kazuha turning around. "Well, you never gave me an answer."
Satellite looked at her in confusion.
"About me being you're Limiter," continued the Limiter girl while holding out her hand. "I think you and I could make a great team if—"
"Go fuck yourself!" Satellite snarled as he slapped Kazuha's hand away.
"But Satellite-senpai! I heard you were going to fight another Junior tomorrow. So, I figured—"
"I don't WANT a Limiter, I don't NEED a Limiter, and I'm never gonna HAVE a bloody Limiter." Satellite stood up while using his blanket to cover his penis. "Now, beat it!"
*CREEK* *CLICK*
Hearing those two sound effects, Satellite dropped his blanket and sat on his bed. He picked up his porno that he dropped and pulled out a book that read "Diary" on the cover. (Yes, boys can have diaries.) He stood up, looked out his window, and saw Kazuha heading back home. Then he got dressed, grabbed his cigarette box and lighter, and left his dorm room...
Meanwhile, Igor was in his pajamas looking out his dorm room window, contemplating something:
"One must fight to protect all."
A tear rolled down his eye. Just then, he smelled something. Instead of reacting, he merely closed his eyes. "The place where Pandora gather...is like a military base. And the most important code of the military...is to honor your relationship between your peers. But you apparently don't care about that code. Do you, Satellite L. Bridget?" Igor was right; Satellite was standing right behind him and smoking another cigarette. "And for that matter, why must you always smoke when in-dorm smoking is prohibited?" continued the redhead. "And where's your Limiter?"
"Didn't bring one," Satellite responded as he spat his cigarette out and smooshed it with his foot. "So, I figured that if someone would fight without a Limiter, then he should strike his opponent when their Limiter ain't around."
*BANG*
An explosion left a huge hole in the walls of the boy's dormitory; the explosion was so great that every Pandora boy in the dorm felt it.
And within that hole, Igor was holding Satellite in the air, clutching the shocked punk by his face. "Just because I don't have my Limiter by my side," growled the redhead, "doesn't mean that I am weak WITHOUT HER!"
