Chapter six - Saki Comeback
Saki kissed Haruto to his surprise. When she was done Haruto asked him, "Why?" To that Saki answered, "Because I want to become famous." Then she flew out of the Valvrave.
-000000000000-
L-Elf looked out through the glass of the control room as he saw Saki fly out of the Valvrave one. He smiled to himself. "L-Elf-kun!" He turned back to see the short brunette. He narrowed his eyes to see the girl. What is she doing here?
Hikari breathed heavily. Then she looked through the glass to see Saki fly towards the green Valvrave. Her eyes widened. "Saki-chan! No!" She exclaimed and swiftly flew to go towards the exit. But L-Elf was in no mood to get his plans hampered. He went swiftly towards her and caught hold of her wrist. Irritated, Hikari looked at him and tried to free her hand. "Leave me! Let me go!" she squealed.
But it was useless, as her strength was nothing as compared to him. His grip got even stronger. She turned to look out of the glass to see Saki already entering the Valvrave. Hikari gasped violently. "Saki-chan! Saki-chan!" She shouted, however it was useless. "Leave me! Please, please let me go!" She pleaded him, but he took no heed. "If I don't stop her then she will turn into a…" But then Hikari's voice tailed off, as she realized what she was about to tell.
L-Elf looked at her with narrowed eyes. "She will turn into a what?" L-Elf asked her. Hikari looked at him and gulped hard. Then her notice went to the green Valvrave. She saw it changed its color from white to black. "No." She whispered under her breath. L-Elf let go off her hand. "Hikari, there is something we must talk about." He said giving her a suspicious look. Hikari turned to him. "You seem to know a lot, don't you?"
-000000000000-
Saki went towards the Green Valvrave and saw her own reflection on it and entered into it. Haruto went after her calling her, "Rukino-san! Don't get into it!" But Saki was already in. "It's cursed!"
Saki Switched on the Valvrave and looked around it. Her surroundings became transparent. She saw above her that Haruto was banging and calling her out.
"The whole world will listen to my song. Rukino Saki? Yeah, I know! Lalalalala! Right?" Then she looked down to the screen.
It is necessary to answer the following question before you start VALVRAVE.
Do you resign as a human being?
YES NO
"Sounds good! I hate humans anyway, and now at least I'll become special! So, it's all fine!" she said it to herself excitedly and pressed the "YES" button.
Then she was injected with something, which made her excited. "Huh! This is so…"
-000000000000-
Haruto moved back as the Valvrave made some strange noise and then saw the Valvrave changed its colour. "Is Rukino-san… okay?"
-000000000000-
Seiya was watching an old video of Saki singing "Good Luck for you". Saki-chan… you are so amazing!" He exclaimed as he saw the video.
-000000000000-
The Green Valvrave flew out of the hanger and flew around in the sky like a lively bird.
"This is amazing! I feel like a bird!" Saki exclaimed. Then she shook her head. "Wait… I'm a vampire now, so that makes me a bat!" She flew over the highways and the scaring off the deer roaming around. She chuckled at this. She enjoyed herself piloting the Valvrave.
"Rukino-san, come back!" She heard Haruto's voice from behind her. She saw the Valvrave one fly and come towards her but she dodged him. "No." She said.
The Green Valvrave flew and landed at desolated place near some factory. The Unit 1 landed behind it and Haruto said, "We don't know what could happen! You can't just toss your humanity aside!" His voice sounded worried and excited. "Don't you think the people dear to you will be sad?!"
The green Valvrave turned around and the cockpit opened and Saki emerged out from it. Seeing Saki coming out of the Valvrave Haruto also came out. He saw the hand of the green Valvrave stretched out towards his and Saki moving towards him. "Watch out!" Haruto exclaimed.
"I'm fine." Saki responded. "It doesn't matter. I'm immortal." Then she said in a grave tone. "And I really don't care about anyone, anyway." Haruto seemed astonished to what Saki said.
She slowly moved towards Haruto. "Poverty. Violence. Alcohol. Crime. I would have been better off without my parents." She said. "To escape from them, from that horrible world, I had no choice but to become famous." She ended.
"Rukino-san…" "It doesn't matter what happens to me." cried Saki, "I have neither family nor friends." Haruto came to her. "Rukino-san, I… Is there anything I could do for you?" He asked her. "Why?" Saki asked. "My friend is crying in front of me. Of course I want to help her." Haruto answered.
"Haruto… You are such a nice person." Said Saki and then embraced him. Haruto was a little surprised. "I'm sorry." said Saki. "Rukino-san?" "I was just kidding." she said and then bit him.
-000000000000-
Hikari and L-Elf were face to face with each other. L-Elf looked at the girl with utter curiosity. Hikari's gaze was averted from him. She looked down at her hands.
L-Elf thought to himself. This girl, Tokishima Hikari, she seems to know a lot about this module, the system of the module, the students, and the Valvraves. She seems to be a very intelligent and wise girl.
L-Elf recalled his last meeting with girl…
Flashback
"L…Elf, L-Elf-kun, we need to talk. I have something important to talk to you." said Hikari in a grave tone. A smile crept up in his face and he said, "So, someone seems to be thoughtful, huh?"
Hikari looked straight into his eyes. "I want to talk to you." "What do you want?" L-Elf asked her. "I want your help. I want your help to protect this module and the ones residing here." Hikari answered. "And why do you think that I should do that, Tokishima Hikari?" He asked her. "There are reasons and you surely won't be at a loss." Then she added. "And besides, do you have any choice left either? You are already stranded here, on this module. You don't have any way left to return to Dorssia. And even if you do, you have no way left to get yourself back to business, because you have already been labeled as a traitor."
L-Elf looked at her with his eyes narrowed. "And," Hikari said, "I also know that anyone who betrays the Dorssian army is executed. And you surely wouldn't like to be executed either, not because you are afraid to die, but because your plan won't be executed." She finished.
L-Elf was astonished; however he still kept his face straight. "I know you must have some plan as well. I don't know what it is, but it has something to do with a revolution. And for that plan of yours you need our help, don't you?" L-Elf did not respond. "I will help you, but in exchange to that you must help to protect the ones who are important to me."
She seems to be a very clever girl. She is not like all the other students out there. Neither is she so naive like her brother Tokishima Haruto. She was able to figure out my point of disadvantage and use it as a plan. Not half bad. But she is quite unaware of my capability. Or perhaps not. She is aware of my capabilities as well. And that is the very reason that she asks for my help. And she seems to know something about this place as well. I better not cease this opportunity. L-Elf thought all these.
Then he answered her, "I will think about what you said, Tokishima Hikari. You can be a lot of help to me." Hikari suddenly said, "Please, don't call me Tokishima Hikari. If you need to call me just refer to me by my name, but don't add the Tokishima before." L-Elf raised his eye brows. Seeing his expression, Hikari said, "There is a reason behind everything, so please…"
"We'll talk about this matter some other time, Hikari." He said and left. Seeing L-Elf retreating, Hikari also walked away.
End of flashback
"So, now the time has come to talk about what we were supposed to, Hikari." L-Elf said Hikari. Hikari slowly looked up at him. "Tell me, what you know about the Valvraves and this module." Hikari gulped. "First you have to promise me that you will not hurt anyone in the module any further." "I will try." replied L-Elf. "You have to help me in return to convince Tokishima Haruto." L-Elf added. "Well… I will try." Replied Hikari. Cocky indeed. L-Elf thought.
"So, Hikari, answer the questions that I will ask you."
-000000000000-
"We are counting on you Nanami-sensei. You will hereby be the representative of New JIOR." said Figaro to Nanami through a web cam from his air ship. "How can I be the representative?" asked Nanami. "You are a teacher. Leading the students is your job. Good luck." Figaro winked and the projection was gone.
""Teacher?" But I am just a trainee…" Nanami said to herself.
-000000000000-
In the control room, Aina sat with some of the Student Council members, doing something. "Yes, on the floor below that too." said Aina. "Is this it?" she asked. Kibukawa was appearing on the screen. Then he disappeared and the screen showed 'Connecting' and then the cockpit of Valvrave one appeared.
They were all amazed to see it.
-000000000000-
In the Valvrave hanger, Yuusuke was fitting the camera on the Valvrave. Kibukawa flew towards him. "It's connected. Next?" "Yes, I should check the readings and adjust the communication circuit output accordingly, right?" Yuusuke asked him.
"I like you, kid." Said Kibukawa. "You could become a great engineer. You've got the spark." Yuusuke beamed at the appreciation by Kibukawa.
-000000000000-
Haruto walked in one of the school corridor, fidgeting with his phone. "Tokishima-kun." Someone called him. He looked back to see it was Takahi. "Have you seen Rukino-san?" She asked him. "No." He answered. "She is skipping her duties again." Takahi frowned. "Just because she is a singer doesn't means…" But she stopped midway as Haruto gave her a very cocky look.
"You should relax a bit." said Haruto and advanced towards her and she was backed against the wall. He put his arm across the wall by the side of her head. "I'll protect you all." He said giving a cocky smile. "Huh?" "You talk too much. Should I seal those pretty lips of yours?" He asked smiling cockily. "Tokishima-kun?" Her eyes grew wide. He gave her an intense look. Takahi closed her eyes scared.
A pocky stick was inserted in her mouth. Takahi opened her eyes. "Insertion complete." Haruto said. "Be sure to cheer for me in the next battle, okay?" he added and slowly ran off. Takahi just looked after him with the stick in her mouth.
Haruto ran and came round a turn of the corridor and started laughing. "It's so fun to be a boy!" Said Saki to herself being inside Haruto's body.
-000000000000-
L-Elf observed Saki through a holographic monitor. "So she was compatible?" L-Elf half questioned himself. "Hidden weapons. The school. The curriculum." He looked at a paper in his hands. "Also with what all Hikari had to say. She has given a quiet correct picture of it all." He recalled what Hikari said.
Flashback
"So, Hikari, answer the questions that I will ask you."
"You don't need to ask me any question. I will tell you whatever is possible for me to tell you." Hikari answered. "I know you planned to see if Saki-chan was compatible to the Valvrave or not. Well then let me tell you one thing. Most of the students in this school are compatible to the Valvrave." L-Elf narrowed his eyes as Hikari said this. "I don't know about all the students but what I know is most of the first year and second year students are compatible to it and a few third years."
"How do you know that the students are compatible to the Valvrave?" L-Elf asked her. "I am sorry, but I cannot give you the answer to this question." Hikari answered. L-Elf gave her a suspicious look. She surely knows something, he thought. "Then how come you know that it's not all the students?" He asked. "Well, I don't know that surely. This is what I know about the compatibility of the students and the Valvraves." She answered.
End of flashback
"The conclusion is: The school was a part of the plan all along." Said L-Elf to himself.
-000000000000-
Back at the outer space, Dorssia was planning another attack on the Module.
"Why?! Why am I not allowed on this mission?!" A-Drei grumbled. "Colonel Cain's orders are absolute." Said X-Eins. "Colonel Cain." Mocked H-Neun. X-Eins gave him a stern look. "Who's higher, the prince or the colonel?" Q-Vier asked with his hand behind his head, floating in the Zero-G space. "My words are the words of Colonel Cain." declared X-Eins. "If you won't obey…" X-Eins loosely swept his hand over his holster.
"I'm a chosen man of the Karlstein." said A-Drei.
Then he recalled an old memory of his with L-Elf, both of the holding a gun on each other's forehead. "I understand the rule."
-000000000000-
Next morning in the Sakimori Academy.
The boys were brushing the teeth. Haruto came rubbing his eyes. "Good Morning…" said Haruto in a sleepy tone.
They all turned to look at him. "Hey, Haruto. Good job there dude!" said Raizo. "Huh?" "We'll be counting on you heartbreaker." said Kyuma. "Watari even cried." said Juto. "Huh?" Haruto was puzzled.
"Haruto!" Yuusuke came running along with Seiya. "What is the meaning of this?!" Yuusuke showed Haruto a picture of him and Saki lying on the Valvrave. Yuusuke groaned and Seiya cried. Haruto was totally taken aback.
"Are you going out? Are you dating?! Yuusuke demanded angrily. Haruto shivered with shock. "You can't hit on idols! It's in the bro-code!" Cried Seiya. Haruto blushed in embarrassment. "H-huh?!"
-000000000000-
Hikari looked at the pictures and the posts by Haruto on the internet about Saki. She sighed. "This must be Saki-chan's work. She must have possessed Haruto and posted all these in under his name." She sighed again.
"But… she really does have some reasons to do all this." She said to herself in a low voice.
Then a thought came to her head. I wonder what L-Elf is thinking. Was it really wise of me telling him everything? What if instead of doing something good for the module he misutilizes the resources I gave him? Was it really wise of me to trust him?
A picture of him flashed through her mind again. Hikari blushed. I really… don't know…
-000000000000-
Saki was standing on the shrine compound. "Rukino-san!" Haruto came running up the stairs calling her name out. Saki turned to look at him. "Good Morning, Haruto." Saki addressed him in a very cheerful tone. He came up panting and showed her his phone, "You cannot use people's body without their permission!"
There was a video presentation with pictures of Saki and Haruto's voice narrating, "Let me introduce my little sister today. She may not be my real sister, but she is really very dear to me."
"Great idea or best idea?" said Saki excitedly. "Now I can market myself as a relative of a celebrity!" "You can't do that!" exclaimed Haruto. "Huh! You said you'd help me!" said Saki in a childish manner. "But you lied." replied Haruto. "A promise is a promise." Said Saki. "Besides…" she added putting her index finger over her lips, "I paid you in advance." Haruto got a little flustered. "I… you… just…"
Then suddenly with a melancholic smile Saki asked Haruto, "Say, how did it feel to become a forsaken vampire?" Haruto gave her a soft look. "Rukino-san…" Saki looked very sad, "You know, I've always been…" There was a silence.
"Haruto!" There suddenly came Shoko's voice hailing Haruto. "Shoko." "Bad news! Bad news!" Shoko came running to him. "Someone posted on the net with your name!" She showed him her phone. Saki looked a little offended and said, "I doubt anyone could hack WIRED's authentication process."
"No, this can't be Haruto." Shoko said. ""She is really good at singing. She was clearly the best in that PV the other day." Haruto would treat everyone who worked on it equally!" Saki seemed a little irritated. Haruto looked happy, "Shoko!" Shoko held his hand. "It's alright. I became friends with someone who is really good at this kind of stuff. We can ask her-" But Saki held Haruto's other hand and cut her in, "Are you jealous?" "Huh?" Shoko blushed. "You mind that Haruto got close to another girl?"
"You two got close?" Shoko asked him shocked. "There is nothing between us!" Haruto said hurriedly. "It's not like we've kissed or anything!" "You kissed!?" Shoko exclaimed. Haruto got even more nervous. "No, no not Kiss! Uh… Ekistics!" "That's lewd!" Shoko shouted angrily still blushing. "What?" Haruto was confused. "I don't know, it just sounded lewd!" "What the hell!" "And you made a lewd face!" "I didn't!"
"Oh man, its so stupid." sighed Saki by looking at Haruto and Shoko quarrelling. Both of them turned to her. "Who cares about Haruto? I just wanna be famous." Saki said straightforwardly. "You are a star already. What more do you want?" Shoko asked her. "That's right. Why do you say that?" Haruto too asked her. "Because I will vanish if I don't carve my existence into the world." She said in a melancholic tone.
Saki kept her face turned with her eyes closed, while Haruto and Shoko gave her a sad look. Then there was a sudden quake with a loud explosion. "What!?" Haruto exclaimed. "Quite a rowdy entrance." Said Saki irritated.
-000000000000-
In the school stadium.
"What was that?" Raizo asked. "That's the emergency alert. We came up with it the other day." answered Yuusuke.
-000000000000-
There was an emergency announcement.
"Listen up everyone! The Dorssian Army is attacking! The Dorssians are attacking! Take shelter immediately!"
-000000000000-
In the command center Aina was announcing.
"But why? Shoko-san said that we'd give the robot to ARUS if they came!" Nanami exclaimed.
Hikari, standing her ground in the command centre looked at the big screen looking at the Dorssian fleet. Narrowing her eyes, Hikari said to herself quite loud, "I knew her plan won't work." Satomi and the other standing there heard her.
"What are the ARUS ships doing?" Satomi asked. "I'll contact them." said one of the girls sitting in the control panel.
-000000000000-
"No good. We are completely surrounded." said one of the ARUS soldiers sitting on the air ships.
"But when?!" Figaro asked.
-000000000000-
"Graf Lagrange's Fleet is spearheading the attack. We've completely surrounded them." Said Kriemhild.
Cain smiled dryly. "It's not that we couldn't catch up to them.
-000000000000-
"We simply waited for a chance to catch them in a pincer attack." said H-Neun sitting in his IDEAL.
"It took long enough." said X-Eins adjusting his glasses.
"Let's go! Come on now!" said Q-Vier excitedly.
-000000000000-
In the Module.
"We said we'd give the robot to ARUS, but they have surrounded us completely!" exclaimed Youhei.
"But then…"
"What are the ARUS doing?" Satomi asked him.
"I can't get in touch with them!"
"Contact Tokishima-kun!" Satomi commanded. "Uh, right." mumbled Aina and then tried to contact Haruto.
In the display screen it showed two Valvrave units. "Huh? Unit IV? There is a new one?" Aina seemed confused. Hikari sharply turned her head. She rushed there quickly. "The Unit IV, Hinowa!" She exclaimed. "Saki-chan is really planning to pilot it?!" Hikari was knocked out of her wits. Aina and Nanami standing near her were shocked to hear what Hikari said.
When Aina opened the cockpit camera… Indeed! It was Saki who was sitting in the cockpit! She was adjusting something. "Huh!" "Rukino-san!" She exclaimed. "I want you to contact Tokishima-kun." Said Satomi. Nanami was about to say something but Hikari said impatiently, "Satomi-senpai, Saki-chan is boarding the Unit IV. She is going to pilot it!" "What?!" Satomi was shocked.
"You got me there!" smiled Saki across the screen. "Rukino-san where did you get that robot?" Nanami asked. "It's Carmilla!" Saki frowned. "Huh?" ""Robot" and "Valvrave" are so unmemorable. I'm calling my Valvrave "Carmilla". " She winked. "Oi, Why are you piloting it?" Satomi asked her. Without replying him she said, "I'm moving out. Later." The display disappeared.
"There is more than one robot…" Nanami said slowly.
-000000000000-
"I have stopped expecting stuff from people long ago." said Saki to herself while adjusting things in her Valvrave. "Got to do everything yourself."
The Unit IV was launched from the module into the space. She spotted the enemies and checked the weapon status of her unit. "My weapons…" She saw there were "Spindle Knuckles" And "Multi-legged Spine". She selected the Spindle Knuckles.
"The Spindle Knuckles. These thing."
She pressed the control buttons for the spindle knuckles and launched then. It swept and hit a Manned WAFFE.
"No one told us they had another?!" The pilot was surprised. With another hit the WAFFE. She swept out one WAFFE after another WITH THE SPINDLE Knuckles. Saki seemed to enjoy herself thoroughly as she beamed and laughed. "Carmilla, you rock!"
The Unit I came flying from behind. "Rukino-san, you are overextending!" Said Haruto through the intercom. "Who cares? We are invincible super humans!" exclaimed Saki.
-000000000000-
"There are two Valvraves?!" H-Neun half questioned himself. "Their equipments seem slightly different." observed X-Eins. "But we should still stick to the plan."
-000000000000-
Saki was targeting the IDEALS with the spindle knuckles. "My my, we got some scary looking ones over there."
-000000000000-
"According to my analysis, the Valvraves are close-range fighters." X-Eins said to himself. Then the IDEAL shot a huge shower of missiles to the Valvrave.
-000000000000-
Saki was shocked to see the huge no of missiles dashing towards her. "No way!" She was unable to avoid all the missiles and a number of them hit her Valvrave.
The Unit I tried to dodge the missiles.
-000000000000-
"Which means if we keep them at a distance, we can lower their combat effectiveness by fifty percent." X-Eins smirked.
The Unit I was constantly being hit.
"If we keep whittling them down little by little, victory will be ours!"
-000000000000-
The battle went on and the ARUS ship watched from a distance.
"Haruto, what are you doing?" Figaro exclaimed.
"The enemy is formidable. It will be rough."
Suddenly an IDEAL appeared at the window of the ship and shot the ARUS ship down and blasted it. "Cheers!" Q-Vier exclaimed ecstatically on blasting the ship. "All right! That was the last battleship."
-000000000000-
Hikari, Aina and others watched the scene from the module. Hikari gasped. Aina clapped hands over her mouth.
"No way… Senator Figaro…" Nanami's words tailed off. "In a blink of an eye…" Aina cried. "ARUS is…" Satomi was at a loss of words. This is bad. What should I do? Hikari thought. Saki-chan is panicking. Haruto is not able to attack. What should be done!
-000000000000-
Saki tried to escape from the missiles as they hit the Unit IV constantly. "I have to get out of here!" She pressed some buttons which pulled her Valvrave back down and the missiles just came to her head-on. However at that moment Unit I came and shielded her.
"Haruto!" "Rukino-san, fall back!" He told her and down to battle.
Saki was panting, sweating and breathing heavily out of fear.
-000000000000-
From the Dorssian ship Cain was watching. "There are two Valvrave entities?" Kriemhild looked at him. Entities?
-000000000000-
Haruto kept on struggling.
"Haruto! I have to help him!" However, Saki's hands were shaking. "I can't… I…" She looked up, seeing that Haruto was fighting alone. "I'm scared! Even though I am invincible…"
-000000000000-
In the school all the students got tensed. "Look, she stopped." "What is she doing?" "Fight!" Raizo shouted. "Let me have a go at them!"
Shoko stood there pondering. "Rukino-san…" She squeezed her skirt. She ran out of the class and suddenly bumped onto someone and fell. "I'm sorry. Are you…" She looked up to see it was Takahi, wearing a rather revealing dress. "Takahi-senpai?" "Are you all right?" asked Lily. "Hey, watch where you are going!"
"Takahi-senpai, why are you dressed like that?" Shoko asked in a rather awkward manner. "Uh, well…." She flustered, "He told me to cheer for him…" Shoko didn't know what to say.
-000000000000-
Haruto struggled alone to get close to the enemy, but to no avail. "I can't close in. I'm gonna loose." The heat kept on rising.
-000000000000-
"I won't let you Hara-kiri." Said Q-Vier. "I'll catch you the moment you stop." The missiles kept on shooting at Haruto and he wasn't able to get any advantage over them.
At a distance, the Unit IV stood motionless. Saki was crying. "Why?! Why?!"
"Get a hold of yourself, Rukino Saki!" Came Shoko's Voice. Saki looked up.
-000000000000-
Shoko shouted through the intercom. "You are the only one who can save both us and Haruto now!" "Sashinami-kun, you can't just do whatever you want!" Said Satomi. Shoko paid no heed. "Everyone in the school has their eyes on you! Are you really gonna blow this show?" Now Hikari shouted, "Shoko-san is right Saki-chan! Don't give it up! You can do it! You are already on the stage!" And Shoko backed up, "Are you the star or not, Rukino Saki?"
-000000000000-
"A star…" Saki whispered. Then she took a deep breath and said, "It's not enough."
"Huh?"
"The crowd isn't big enough." Saki was encouraged. "I'll become the greatest star in the world!"
Shoko and the others seemed happy. "Rukino-san."
"Stream this on WIRED!" Saki commanded. "Broadcast the feed from my cockpit!"
And then it was streamed live everywhere.
-000000000000-
Saki took down one after another WAFFE.
People around the world looked at her amazed. "Look, it's that robot from last time!" "Are they fighting again?" "This time it's a girl!"
"Damn, she is really cool!" "Do you know her?"
"She was a JIORian idol." "I thought she retired."
-000000000000-
"Rukino-san, stay back!" Haruto warned.
"I got this! I just realized something!" Saki explained.
"Numbers don't matter. You are all the same." said X-Eins casually. And he shot another shower of missiles.
"Got it!" exclaimed Saki and pressed the control buttons on her grip. The extra leg-like spikes activated and the Valvrave shot around with super speed in all direction dodging every other missiles.
Saki looked confident. But then suddenly, a missile hit her. And she recalled a past memory where her younger self was slapped hard by a shadowy figure of a man.
"Not yet!"
She tried harder and harder but was hit once more. "I have to get famous!"
-000000000000-
In the control room everyone got tensed up.
"Rukino-san!"
"She can't do it! Get someone else!" commanded Satomi.
"But if she can't do it…"
"She is getting pushed back!"
"You don't know that!"
"They took out ARUS in an instant!"
"Then who else will pilot it?!"
Shoko was pondering what to do when…
"SAKI-CHAN GO FOR IT!" Hikari shouted. Everyone looked at her. "GO FOR IT! GO FOR IT! GO FOR IT!" She cheered.
"Hikari-chan…"
Shoko followed the queue.
"DON'T GIVE UP, RUKINO SAKI! GO FOR IT! GO FOR IT!"
"What are you two doing, Tokishima-kun, Sashinami?" Satomi demanded. "We are cheering for her." said Hikari. "You said you would do it senpai." Shoko said Takahi. "But…"
"RUKINO-SAN YOU GOT IT!" Nanami cheered. "Sensei…" "Yeah, players do so much better at sporting events when you cheer for them." Nanami told Satomi. "Says who? That's utter non-sense! If winning was that easy…"
"GET A GRIP, RUKINO SAKI!" Takahi shouted. "You do it too!" She commanded Satomi. "Yes ma'am!"
And they all cheered for her.
-000000000000-
Even in the WIRED everyone cheered for her.
The entire world is watching…
She recalled about her horrible past. Her horrible mother. Her rejections. Her termination.
You hurt me… Sneered at me…
She attacked the Dorssian troupe.
"It's too agile!" "How can this be?!"
The world wanted me dead!
Dodged all the missiles.
Everyone in the control room was awed with the blaze of colors. "It's so pretty…" Takahi exclaimed.
-000000000000-
"I will not let…" Saki charged towards the IDEAL. "… THE WORLD KILL ME!"
She dodged the last of the missiles and closed on in.
X-Eins was shocked.
Saki dodged his last attempt and shot right at the IDEAL with the spindle knuckle.
X-Eins only managed to escape through the life pod.
"X-Eins! H-Neun exclaimed. "What is that thing?" X-Eins exclaimed.
"Damn it!"
"Wait! Retreat!"
"Why?"
"All units! Retreat to direction L2! I repeat! All units retreat!"
"It's an order?"
"We are running?"
"An order is an order!"
And all the Dorssian forces retreated.
-000000000000-
Everyone in the module cheered.
Haruto seemed happy.
Shoko clapped.
Hikari was overjoyed.
Saki's cockpit screen overflowed with comments and cheering.
Saki seemed satisfied. And as the window of the control room opened she looked at Hikari and Shoko and smiled.
-000000000000-
"Take X-Eins life pod to the second hanger." Kriemhild ordered. "Roger."
"I'll leave the rest to you." said Cain. "Are you certain, sir?" She asked him. "I've prepared another plan." He said and left. Kriemhild looked after him.
-000000000000-
A WAFFE landed on the rear side of the module and A-Drei emerged out of it.
"L-Elf, for the sake of our friendship, please die!"

Phew, and that was the end of the sixth chapter. I hope you all enjoyed it.
Sorry again for the super late update. I really can't help it but I really have to study for the boards and it really is very difficult. Please don't get angry everyone.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: I might not be able to write till next year again due to the heavy pressure of my studies. Please forgive me if I disappointed you. But it is my promise to all that I will finish this story.
Please give your reviews. Thank you.
