Seeds of Agito
As Umi returns and is getting together again with Class Q, our mysterious, "alternate reality" version of Kyuu makes another appearance and finally gets to meet with Kyuu Renjou…in a rather bizarre way…
More than 15 minutes have passed since leaving the astronomical laboratory in Tokyo, Ryu, Kyuu and Kinta are heading for the bus station to get back to the city proper when the Lord that has been following them has revealed itself and it is identified as the Gorilla Lord, and suddenly, Kyuu clutches his upper body as pain shots in as his Agito seed began to resonate just like before when he started classes at DDS.
"UUUHHHNNNHHH…!"
"Kyuu? What's wrong?"
"Are you in pain?"
"My body…it's aching again…!"
"Huh? An Unknown!"
"Blast it! Ryu…get Kyuu out of here…I'll hold that thing off!"

144: Ochita uchū hikō-shi, Kikyō
As the Gorilla Lord approaches Kyuu, both Kinta and Ryu tries to stop it but they were shoved aside as it makes a finger-sign gesture and the two Class Q members are baffled as the Lord appeared to be interested only in Kyuu, Kinta tries to muscle in against the Lord but is again thrown aside and now the Class Q leader is about to be slaughtered, as the body pain he experienced in the past kicks in again in the worst timing. Kinta and Ryu stared in horror at seeing their classmate just seconds away from meeting with death.
"Blast! Why is my body in pain again? I can't move like this!"
"Blast! Kyuu!"
"Kyuu! Run!"
However, a blinding light of fire came down and almost hit the Gorilla Lord but the impact seem to affect only the monster and the smoke cleared up, which shows that it was Fourze who arrived, laying on his back with his legs pointing up in the sky, and the three Class Q members are in a state of disbelief in seeing that what appeared to be an astronaut coming and indirectly saved them.
"Kyuu…are you okay?"
"Y-yeah…I guess. Still feeling a bit painful…huh? D-did you see that? An astronaut came falling down!"
"He's right…but…he doesn't looked like one…he looks like a NASA-type robot or something…"
Fourze gets up and tries to get its bearings back and saw Kyuu, waving at him and spoke to him, which surprises the Class Q leader and the others.
"Hi. Are you Kyuu Renjou?"
"Uh…yeah…"
"Good. Stay alive…and leave the orangutan to me…"
"Uh…okay…wait…you seemed to sound like me…"
Their conversation is interrupted when the Gorilla Lord gets up and charges in towards them, and Fourze starts to fight back by kicking and punching the Lord, but then he starts to feel the Lord's brute strength so he decided to up the ante and toggles the switches of the FOUR-Driver, which summons a weapon.
FOUR-Driver: "ACTIVATE ROCKET ARM! ROCKET ON!"
Within seconds Fourze's right arm is armed with what appeared to be an arm-sized rocket, in which its thrusters sent him towards the Lord and there he uses the weapon's impact to knock the monster back and the three Class Q members watched the scene in surprise as the Lord is slowly being overwhelmed until Fourze toggles with the FOUR-Driver, and activates another weapon.
FOUR-Driver: "ACTIVATE DRILL LEG! DRILL ON!"
A metallic drill appeared and fastens around Fourze's left leg, and then presses another button on the FOUR-Driver.
FOUR-Driver: "ROCKET DRILL - LIMIT BREAK!"
Fourze then uses the rocket arm to steer himself and then the Drill Leg to smash and destroy the Gorilla Lord for good, resulting in an explosion and Kyuu is saved for now.
"Wow…this is for real!"
"Okay…you're safe now…"
"Thanks, whoever you are!"
"Thanks for saving our friend."
"You're welcome…"
"Who are you? Are you really an astronaut?"
"Yup…aeronautic student from Milky Way High…"
"Er…okay…"
"Got to go…I have an appointment…"
"Okay…see you…"
After that, Fourze uses the rocket arm to fly his way out and clumsily flew into the sky, which Kyuu and Ryu sweat-dropped at the sight, and there Kinta suggests that they leave at once, which they all did before police arrive. As Class Q is gone, Kojima and his men arrived and was dismayed that the Lord is not around and demanded his men to search the area for Agito.
"Blast it! We missed it again!"
"Sir…we don't know if the mess is caused by an Unknown or Agito itself…"
"Don't give me an excuse! Just go and find Agito! Capture it! Or else you're fired!"
"Yes, sir…"

Later within the day, Kobato and Ringo's corpses were picked up by police as Kazuma is talking with the police about the incident which he managed to convince them that the Lord is behind the murders and carefully described how it killed the two girls and made it appeared that it kidnapped Miyuki and further claimed that the remaining survivors of the Akatsuki Ferry incident must be found and protected. The police believed him and he is given permission to leave.
"Okay…thank you for your cooperation, DDS boy…"
"Sure…and thank you for coming…"
A brief flashback scene is shown that several minutes ago, Kazuma and Megumi brought Hikaru to a nearby hospital where she is given first aid treatment while he leaves for the nearest police station and tells the police about what happened and led them to Ringo and Kobato's corpses, where Miyuki is nowhere to be found and he deduced that she has fled the scene. He is saddened by this and is sure that Kyuu and Hikaru would be upset once they hear about the news.

Umi returned to the Tokyo Hospital as she figured that her parents might worry if she is found missing again, but to her surprise, the doctors informed her that she is cleared to go and her parents are there carrying her clothes, and a baffled Class M beauty is perplexed as the turn of events but nevertheless played along as she figured that this is for the best.
"Ah…Miss Ryuuzaki…you're dismissed from this hospital…you're free to go and you're medically cleared…"
"Really…?"
"Yes."
"Er…my clothes…"
"You're parents took them home…and don't worry about the bill…"
"Okay…if you say so…"
Unknown to her, the Sumeragi twins happened to be there and uses a magic spell to affect the doctors and its staff into making them give Umi a "clearance" so that she can go home without arousing questions and suspicions, as the Overlord of Light instructed them to do so as he intends to meet Umi for the first time in the days ahead, intending to tell them the situation at hand in regards to the Overlord of Darkness and the mystery of the Agito seeds. As the Ryuuzaki family leaves, Subaru and Hokuto watches on, wondering where would this lead to next.
"Well…that was easy…"
"The boss is really intent on meeting her one day…"
"Does that include the remaining survivors of the Akatsuki Ferry incident?"
"Looks like it…"
-x-
Several minutes later, the Ryuuzaki family arrived home and Umi is wondering what has happened during her absence, and wondered what has become of her attacker, Naoto Kirihara, the one responsible for injuring her. She is unaware that he is already dead and now she decided to focus on getting back on track.
By then Fuu arrived and tells her that she is going to return to DDS so as she can petition Morihiko Dan to let Umi make up for the absences she had. Fuu went on to tell her about all that has happened and even told her that Kojima is still bent on capturing Agito, as she informed him about the recent capture of Kelberos and that Kojima still harasses Kyuu since Agito frequently rescues him.
"I see…"
"Yeah…"
"That Kojima…why can't somebody else has fired that jerk on the spot and from the MPD?"
"His records are still clean…and even the higher-ups see him still worthy…"
"He'd better not provoke me…"
"I hope not…and Morihiko Dan better do something about that creep…at least he won't get his hand on MPD property again…"
Umi only nodded, as she herself is troubled by the fact that she realized that Fuu is the user if the G3-X suit which she recalled unintentionally attacking her as at that time she didn't know about this, as well as that she couldn't tell her that she and Hikaru are Agito-users and feared that Kojima might coerce Fuu into attacking them and may result in untoward injuries like before. She mentally intends to tell Fuu everything once the time is right.

At Yuko Ichihara's shop, Watankuki is sweeping the garden when Fourze crashes in, almost hitting him as the astronaut-themed version of Kyuu ended up landing on the boxes with Maru and Moro making a rhyme on the new visitor, much to Fourze's embarrassment.
"Fly me to the moon… Fly me to the moon…once you land, you kick the ass of Watanuki the goon…"
"Hey! I'm not a goon!"
"Sorry about the landing…"
Then Fourze switches the FOUR-Driver off and Yuko came out to greet him and leads him inside the shop, and there Gentaro is surprised to see other versions of Kyuu, such Hibiki, Faiz, Blade, Kiva and O's. Gentaro greeted them and soon he is being told of why he came to this world and what role he is going to play.
"Hello. I'm Gentaro Kyusaragi…pleased to meet you."
"Wataru Kyurenai."
"Hibiki."
"Takyuma Inui."
"Kyuzuma Kenzaki."
"Kyuji Hino."
"Wow…you guys almost looked like me…as if we're twins…"
By then Yuko came and tells Gentaro the reason why she sent him at her shop.
"Now then…you have a role to play and why I sent you here."
"Looks like I don't have much choice. Tell me everything and I'll listen."
"Good."
To Be Continued…
Umi's back…and now she must make up for lost time by attending DDS classes and solve a case…
The alternate version of Kyuu finally meets with his other counterparts and all that's left now is W, who has yet to show up.
Oh, in case you need to know, Fourze is based on the ongoing Japanese TV show, Kamen Rider Fourze, and his motif is based on spaceflight and 50th anniversary of spaceflight, which began with Yuri Gagarin's flight in 1961.
Preview:
Class M is assigned to a case and they are going to solve something that is very baffling as it involves letters, and would lead to a foreign culprit…
That's right…a foreigner culprit…and is based on one of a high-profile anime with CLAMP indirectly involved…
