Author's Note: This chapter is a bit shorter that I expected. Sorry about that.

I feel as though Sawada's been visiting me very often recently. I shake my head I as walk into the training room. It must be because I'm not on their side of the base very often. "Is there something that you needed?" I ask.
Sawada looks surprised that I showed up. "Eh?! Sato-san!"
"Hibari-san said that he didn't want to show up, so I got sent in his place," I reply as I cross my arms. "I feel like a messenger," I mutter.
"Kasumi, it's your turn to try riding the airbike," the Arcobaleno commands.
"Ha, it almost seems as though you expected me to come in Hibari-san's place, Arcobaleno," I comment. I look at the weird looking motorcycle. "It looks like a hovercraft…"
Giannini nods. "It works on the same theory."
"Are the controls the same as a motorcycle?" I ask.
"Yes. They're pretty much the same." I smile a bit as I hear this. I walk over to the airbike and sit down. I start the airbike up and drive around the room pretty easily. It's a bit worrisome being up in the air, but it's easy to get used to.
Sawada comments, "Sato-san knows what she's doing…"
I go back to where the airbike was originally and brake before getting off. "It was bit weird floating up in the air, but it's easy to get used to," I reply.
"Did you already know how to ride?" the Rain Guardian asks.
I shake my head. "It's my first time on a real motorcycle. A while ago, we went to an arcade though and Ken really liked this motorcycle game. I think that the controls on the game were the same as riding the real thing…" I explain.
"Y-You learned it from an arcade game…?"
I start to walk out of the room. "I'm assuming that this is for the Choice battle. I guess I'll be back for practice tomorrow," I say. Then, I walk out of the room. The idea of battling like it's a game bothers me. It's not something that's supposed to be taken lightly like some kind of board game or video game. Real lives are being put on the line. I frown.
I walk into the training room again. Giannini let me know that the motorcycles were done. "Oh, you even made a black and white one for me," I comment. I'm a bit surprised actually.
"Yes, those colors seemed to suit you the best," Giannini replies.
I smile a little in appreciation. "Oh? Thank you," I reply. "You too, Spanner-san," I say. I walk over to the motorcycle and start to go around the room. It seems like the other Guardians are practicing too. I start to try out different speeds and see how fast I can go until I get scared. The problem is, once I get scared, I go back down in speed and have to build it up again. I frown and continue to try and handle speeding up while avoiding getting hurt.
In the end, even though I tried my best not to get hurt, I fell down a few times and ended up getting scratches and bruises here and there. I sigh as I walk back to Hibari's side of the base. It also seems like the airbikes are powered by Deathperation Flames. This makes it kind of exhausting in a way too.
"You're hurt," Hibari says.
"Yeah, I fell off the airbike a few times," I reply. Even though I say this pretty casually, I end up wincing. Hibari frowns and blush as I realize that he's worried about me. "I-I'm alright though."
Hibari seems doubtful, but he walks away. I hear him ask Kusakabe, "Vice Chairman, go pick up the dinner for tonight." I continue to blush a little as I sit in front of the table.
I'm not sure when I fell asleep at the table, but I didn't have dinner. I open my eyes slowly and sit up. This causes the blanket that was thrown over me to fall off. I stare at the blanket with a blank look for a bit. It was thrown over my head before too, so it could only have been Hibari who threw the blanket on me. Somehow, I doubt that Kusakabe would throw the blanket over my head. I smile a little to myself before I pick the blanket up as I stand. I start to walk to my room, but I pause when I go by Hibari's room. "Thank you," I say quietly. Then, I continue to walk to my room.
