Seeds Of Agito
This chapter will focus on Class M for now as Umi and Hikaru are going to face off a Lord in order to save someone, who is apparently one of the surviving Akatsuki Ferry incident four years ago…but expect some heavy fighting as you read on…
-x-
Meanwhile, back in Tokyo, Hikaru and Umi are halfway near the Shidou house when they noticed smoke five streets away and sensed an aura of a Lord nearby and they head to the source of the smoke where they saw a house is on fire, with a man firing his gun at an attacker, revealing it to be the Firefly Lord, and the Lord sets them man on fire, who is revealed to be Shiro Asou.
"Umi!"
"Darn…don't tell me that thing found one of the Akatsuki Ferry survivors…let's transform while no one is looking…henshin!"
"Henshin!"
Umi anatomically changes into Gills and goes there first with Hikaru summoning the Alter Ring belt, pressing the two orb-like buttons on its sides and is encased in her armor as Agito and follows Gills to halt the Firefly Lord's assault.

108: Damunēshon part 4
Near the Hououji house, Fuu is greeted by her sister, Kuu and the two girls hugged and exchanged queries on how their day is doing while their parents came after office work. They were glad to see their daughters arriving home safely and they al walked towards their gate.
"Mom…dad…!"
"Hi!"
"Fuu…Kuu…good to see you arrived safely…how are your days…?"
"Everything's fine at school!"
"I'm quite busy…I guess being a detective student and being a part-time MPD operative are not as easy as I thought…"
"Fuu…are you sure you're fine with this…?"
"It might take its toll on you…"
"Mom…dad…you worry too much…I'll be fine…really…"
By then, the G3 Trailer came and parked outside just as Icchan came out and went straight to Fuu, much to her family's surprise and dismay, seeing that their daughter is about to get herself into danger, since they are aware of her status as the operator of G3-X.
"Hah…hah…glad I guessed that you're here…"
"What's wrong, Icchan?"
"We got a call…an Unknown is attacking a suburban residential area in Southern Tokyo…it even caused a fire…you're needed there…I know it's sudden, but we're needed to be there…ambulances and firefighters will be there but the Unknown might…"
"Say no more…I'm coming with you…"
However the Hououji family was a bit apprehensive to see their daughter leave and though Fuu assured that she'll be back, her family insisted that they want to come along, and the G3-X user had no choice but to let them come along, and so everyone boarded the G3 Trailer and move out towards the scene of the incident.
-x-
Inside the G3-Trailer, Kuu and the Hououji parents watched as they saw Fuu putting on the protective body suit while Minoru and Hatoko are slowly putting on the pieces of armor to assemble the exo-suit inside her. Fuu's godfather is also there and explained to the Hououji family what role Fuu played in the MPD and though apprehensive over her safety, Mr. and Mrs. Hououji and Kuu opted to support Fuu all the way. By now the helmet is attached and there they saw G3-X in full armored form and are quite surprised to see what it looked like.
"My goodness…"
"She looked like…a stag beetle-themed Robocop…"
"Onee-sama…is that really you in there…?"
"Um…yes…it's me…Kuu…mom…dad…this is what I really do at the MPD…and for me this is the highest honor I received…"
-x-
At the residential area in Southern Tokyo, the residents are terrified at the scene that they're witnessing, as firefighters arrived and attempted to stop the blaze, but the Firefly Lord fires pyrokinetic blast which caused the fire trucks to explode at the spot, killing the firefighters along with it, and then watches the burning house and expects the Agito seed carrier to perish there, so that he can extract the seed.
"What is that thing?"
"It's one of those monsters we saw on TV!"
"Why is that thing burning that house?"
"That's the house where Hina-chan lives!"
"Oh dear! Can't someone help her?"
"How can we? You saw what that thing did to that fire truck!"
At this time Gills arrived and went straight inside the burning house and the Lord is about to stop her when Agito grabbed the Lord and began punching him away and managed to get him away from the burning house yet the Lord persisted as he trapped her in a bearhug while increasing his body heat, and Agito is starting to feel the heat penetrating her armored form.
"AAAAEEEEIIOOOOWWWW! Hot-hot-hot! Now I realize why I need to apply sunscreen lotion…I'll never go sunbathing nude ever again! I'd better do something or I'll be forced to attend school in a tanned skin…and my brothers will make fun of me…!"
Thinking fast she head-butts her attacker and managed to break free and presses a button on the side of her belt and assumes Storm form, and summons her weapon, the Storm Halberd, and brandishes as the Firefly Lord, who is not intimidated by Agito's second form. The witnesses watches the scene, opinions divided on what to think of this.
"Is that what I think it is?"
"Is that what the cops called an Unknown?"
"I heard he's called "Agito"…"
"Agito is fighting that monster…"
"If so…Agito is on our side…"
"Let's cheer for Agito!"
"Agito! Agito! Agito…!"
"Agito! Agito! Agito…!"
"Agito! Agito! Agito…!"
"Agito! Agito! Agito…!"
-x-
Inside the burning house, Gills breaks her way through the burnt debris and searches the area quite frantically as the heat starts to become unbearable despite her Agito form and tries to hold her breath as the smoke is starting to affect her breathing and hoped to find any survivors in this inferno. She had seen so many deaths, in Cephiro and the real world, so she had to do everything to preserve and save a life even if it costs her own life.
"Darn…even in my evolved form…I'm not spared from smoke inhalation...I'd better find survivors quick or I'll end up getting barbecued here…! I can't die yet…not until I get answers to these Unknown and why are they attacking people randomly…!"
"HELP! HELP! SOMEBODY HELP ME!"
By then she heard screams of help and followed the source and found a man screaming for help as he tries to get debris off an unconscious girl, and she went there to help. The man was surprised to see Gills but his worry was calmed as she removed the debris and carries her on her arms and the man told Gills to help her get to an ambulance and she nodded, and both leave the burning house.
"Follow me…we're getting out of here!"
"Th-thank you…"
"Thank me later once we get out of here…who is this girl…?"
"My daughter…"
The man told Gills that the girl is his precious daughter and said he is willing to pay any amount to her but Gills told him money is not an issue to her, only her well being, and when she asks the girl's name, the man said his daughter's name is Hinata Asahi. She realized that she is among the Akatsuki Ferry survivors and urged the girl's father, Mr. Asahi, to follow her as they trek their way out of the burning house.
"Looks like we got a setback here…the Unknown are attacking not just random people…all of their attacks appeared to be focusing on the Akatasuki Ferry survivors…what their hidden agenda on these attacks? Why target these people? I don't see any logic in this…!"
However, as they made their way out, they were greeted by the Jellyfish Lord and Gills gave the unconscious Hinata to her father and told him to get her out as she intends to hold off the Jellyfish Lord, and he immediately attacked her with his stinging tentacles and the brawl has begun.
"Ow! I hate jellyfishes…and I hate Portuguese Man O' War!"
-x-
Meanwhile, Agito-Storm Form is having difficulty in dealing with the Firefly Lord due to his fire-based attack attributes and the Storm Halberd only serves to block off his fireball attacks, and she could feel her hands beginning to swell and bruise due to these attacks. Because of this she couldn't get closer to make a direct hit and realize she couldn't assume Flame Form as this would only make the Firefly Lord stronger.
"Assuming Flame Form would only make things worse…and it would only make that thing stronger…hmm…if only I could use the Halberd Spin if in close range…maybe I might score a decisive win and that would solve the fire problem…"
Glancing at her opponent, she deduced that the only way to defeat him his to get close enough to deliver a lucky, but fatal strike using the Storm Halberd in order to end the battle. As she is about to summon the Machine Tornador, a SWAT van arrived and positions it near the Firefly Lord, and the SWAT team members aimed their guns at the two, though one of them expressed opinions that Agito is an ally, though the others are not trustworthy towards Agito.
"On my word…we open fire at the two…"
"Sir, wait…that's Agito…he 's on our side…"
"Can it, soldier! We have our orders…and we don't take chances…"
"Sir…I think he's right…he's stalling that monster in question…just like what we see now…why don't we take out the firefly-like monster first, and if that Agito isn't attacking us…then we can be sure he's our ally…"
"Not you too…"
However, something struck the van and it moves by itself and is shoved forcefully towards Agito, surprising the SWAT members. Although Agito-Storm Form caught it, the scene shifts and shows who shoved the van, it is revealed to be the Rhino Lord, and the Lord rammed the van again with its head in a strong force sending both Agito and the Van plowing inside the burning house, which is followed seconds later by an explosion, and the Rhino Lord roared in triumph, while the SWAT team members are shocked by what they saw while the residents feared for the worst.
"What the…?"
"It just…plowed our van and plowed through Agito…"
"You saw that, sir…? Agito is on our side…but now we…"
"Just shut up! Men…open fire!"
The SWAT Team members opened fire at the Rhino Lord but the Rhino Lord ignored them as he is focuses on seeing if Agito is killed at the burning house or not, and is roaring louder expecting that he has triumphed over his target, while the Firefly Lord began to incinerate the SWAT Team members to a crisp until not one is left, further terrifying the residents there..
-x-
Meanwhile, Gills is still fending off the Jellyfish Lord when she saw Agito and the van being thrown inside the burning house and this distracted her enough for the Lord to attack her from behind and wrapped his stinging tentacles onto her, slowly electrocuting and stinging her, which she frantically tries to break free, while Mr. Asahi slowly carries Hinata away from the burning house before it exploded.
There Gills saw another Lord there and realizes that they're outnumbered and wondered if this attack is premeditated or not, seeing that they are here for Hinata.
"Darn…I'm starting to think that these Unknown are an organized group of monsters…something I haven't seen since my days as a Magic Knight…"

My apologies for a lack of Class Q action, but rest assured that they will be back after the next chapter since this action scene takes place within the night which Class Q is having a hot spring relaxation…but Class M is here to accommodate you readers…after all, they're DDS students too…
And a surprise…the characters appearing here in this chapter are from another CLAMP series, and they're from the manga Suki – A Like Story. At the end of last chapter, Shiro Asou, who is the main protagonist of that series, made a brief cameo appearance where he is killed off by the Firefly Lord trying to protect someone inside the burning house, who is none other than the main female character, Hinata Asahi. She is mentioned last chapter where her name is among the list of passengers from the Akatsuki Ferry, thus suggesting that she has an Agito seed as she is being attacked…
Preview:
As Hikaru tries to get out of the burning house, and Umi busy tangling with the Jellyfish Lord, Fuu arrives and battles the Firefly Lord as G3-X in order to save whoever is inside the burning house as they hoped that it is a survivor of the Akatsuki Ferry Incident though the fight won't end there just yet as another Lord joins in.
Class M is now fighting together again in their secret identities (Agito x Gills x G3-X), fighting against common enemies since the Project G4 arc…
