Seeds Of Agito

A double feature in this chapter as Class Q goes on an undercover investigation involving missing person and this took place during episodes 17 to 21 of the anime.

Meanwhile Team G3 are going to keep an eye on Class Q as they secretly followed them in case an "Unknown" shows up since Kyuu was almost killed in their recent encounter which resulted in the G3 suit getting the first damage.

Somewhere near the tunnel leading to Kamikushi Village, the G3 Trailer was parked near a forest area where no other passing vehicles can notice it, and the scene shifts inside the huge vehicle as Hotoku and Minoru are helping Fuu assemble the G3 suit as Icchan is almost finished in installing new weapons for G3, such as the GS-03 "Destroyer", a high-frequency sword, mounted on left arm when in use, and GA-04 "Anthares": A wire-anchor hook, mounted on left arm when in use.

Fuu was wondering if Hikaru would be alright on her own though she is unaware that she is on her way to the island where she spent her time as an amnesiac, and was wondering why Tomoyo insisted that Team G3 go here to watch over Class Q, though Icchan explained to her why and that it's a logical mission for them to be here.

"Remember…Kyuu Renjou of Class Q was almost killed, and though we could say it's just a random attack, I have a feeling that the murders carried out during the DDS entrance exams a few weeks back could be connected, and so Commissioner Hiiragizawa told us to watch out for an Unknown coming here…"

"I say he's right, Fuu…"

"And a good opportunity to try out the new weapons we made…"

Fuu could only sigh as the helmet is installed on her head and she is ready to go and prepared herself for a confrontation as the G3 Trailer's computers have picked up something and the team realized that an Unknown is nearby so G3 went out of the trailer and began her search and hunt for that Unknown.

Several minutes later, Class Q arrived at the town after passing through a long tunnel that connects the Kamikushi Village and Hyoutan Village, and Kyuu was thankful that he didn't experience another bout of body pain or that his classmates notice a strange, whitish glow around his belly during the trip. He wasn't sure how to explain it but since nothing else happened after getting off the bus, he rather keep this to himself.

While on their way, Kyuu's suggestion to keep their status as investigators secret was accepted by Ryu since the culprit would target them should he/she find out about this and the rest of Class Q agreed on it. After several minutes they approached the hotel so they can lodge in, and are greeted by a few people wearing strange masks which spooked Kyuu and Megumi.

"Boo…"

"AAAHHH!!!"

"KKYYAA!!!"

The people removed their masks which revealed to be visitors who arrived earlier and they introduced themselves as media personalities to cover this town's status as a supernatural show, though they also stated that they're also going to cover this footage to find hidden treasure. However, the town's hotel owner, and also a resident of Kamikushi Village, wasn't pleased that his tenants are making fun of the sacred masks, and threaten to have them evicted if they continue to make fun of the "sacred masks".

"Come on, pops…we're just having a little fun…we'll stop, okay?"

"Yeah…these masks have a supernatural feel to it…"

"Hmph!"

As the hotel owner left, two females, an elderly and a teenager, came to greet the newcomers. One of them is Mio Fuuma and she told them she is the hostess of the hotel. The elderly woman told Class Q that she has never been to school because she has never left the village. However, Mio was smitten by Ryu's charm and left, so the five DDS students settled for getting their rooms. Megumi got her own, Kinta shares with Kazuma, and Kyuu shares with Ryu. The two began to converse about this village's history.

"Eh? This place was once a testing site for what???"

"A small pox virus…it was meant to be used as a biological weapon…but due to an accident it got leaked and spread in this village, and so to prevent it from turning it into an epidemic, a portion of this place was sealed, trapping those infected to their doom. Thus many started to worship their God of disaster."

"That's terrible…"

Several minutes later, Class Q assembled t a hall to discuss what they got so far, and are now planning to split up in order to find clues and to figure out a way to flush out the culprit, and so Ryu proposed that he is going to station himself at the cottage near the tunnel, with Megumi reluctantly volunteering to go with Ryu, and Kyuu felt a bit of jealously but was fine with it. And as the two groups split up, they meet up with the village chief, wearing a very foreboding mask and warned the newcomers that if they are not careful they might be the next victim.

But then Kyuu went into another bout with body pain and clutched his waist, feeling like he's throwing up, much to Class Q's concern, and the villagers with masks gasped as they assume that the curse is once again taking place.

"Not again!"

"Kyuu!"

"Kinta…has this ever happened before???"

"A few times in the past…"

"Especially after Kyuu and I encountered an Unknown a week ago…"

- - -

Inside the tunnel that connects Hyoutan Village and Kamikushi Village, the Kangaroo Lord was stomping on the head of another visitor to the two villages, and it's a woman, who happened top be one of the Akatsuki passengers who survived four years ago. She is Kathy Kymco, a Korean national who now resides in Japan. Her head was already crushed due to the Lord's stomping and after making sure she's dead, the Lord extracted the seed from her crushed skull and took off, just as G3 arrived to witness it.

"Darn…too late…"

As G3 checked the corpse's wallet, she found out her identity, much to her dismay.

"Another passenger of the Akatsuki ferry…Icchan…contact the MPD and have Commissioner Hiiragizawa or Inspector Mizuki to look into the list of passengers of the Akatsuki Incident…check out for those alive…have them placed in protective custody…"

"Say what?"

"An Unknown is spotted…near where Class Q is located…and it killed another Akatsuki survivor…I'm going to pursue it…"

"Okay…be careful…"

As the Kangaroo Lord moves away, G3 goes into pursuit, moving away from the site near Class Q is, and Kyuu slowly recovered from his pain , much to the others' reliefs but the villagers are now wary of this and started praying.

Later in the night, Rio Azegami was alone at the middle of the village square looking up in the sky, daydreaming about exposing this village's secrets, and even hoped of being the first to discover the hidden treasure and that being able to rise her station's rating, until she was attacked by someone from behind, a very painful death that no one have noticed.

- - -

Thirty minutes later, the scene shows that G3 and the Kangaroo Lord are now outside the Hyoutan Village and into the main road, and a fight is already underway, and is now she has activated the GM-01 "Scorpion", and opened fire, managing to stager the Lord back, and then activated the GG-02 "Salamander", attaching both weapons and formed a higher-powered weapon.

"Now you're dead!"

G3 opened fire at the Lord, but the Lord jumped quite high and over G3, as the blast struck the portion of the hillside which triggered a landslide and boulders fell down, burying G3 alive, and the Kangaroo Lord went back inside Hyoutan Village, sensing someone else having the aura of the mystical seed.

- - -

Back inside the G3 Trailer, Icchan, Hotoku and Minoru tried to contact Fuu, but all they got was static signal, and no response came from G3.

"Fuu! Fuu! Can you hear us???"

"All we got was static!"

"Darn! This is not good!"
