Here we go:
Kaori started the year in USA as a Stasi agent, trying to hunt Keinhelf Berium, she decided to watch Super Bowl which the Superbowl shuffling Bears crushed the Patriots 46-10, Afterwards she managed to find Beriums whereabouts, he had built a house out in Dallas Texas.
Kaori had to be careful in Texas, very pro-American region and a perfect place for Berium to hide.
Kaori managed to search around the city for ages and eventually found Berium, hiding in a barn
She caught him and tied him up
She gave him a punch with her only working arm.
"Why did you spy on East Germany" said Kaori coldly
"Because I wanted to unify Germany, it can only be achieved by the West, why fight it, that's why you along with the East German state needed to be stopped, but it seems you found me" said Keinhelf
"But you Westerners want War, I've seen the ambition you lot have, plus you took away my ability to play violin on one hand" said Kaori
"You killed my family, so we are even" said Keinhelf
"Shut Up, it's my mission to take you down and here we are (pulls a gun out) and lets do this" said Kaori
Then a loud bang is heard
Keinhelf sees Kaori scrunched up on the floor holding her hip in pain while he looked down to see a hole in his leg which he screeched in pain and then looked up to find a angry farmer holding a gun
"What you guys doing on my property" said the farmer
"Why are you tied up" added the farmer
"I was about to be shot by the woman you just shot in the hip, you saved my life, but I need you to call an ambulance and take us both to the hospital" said Keinhelf
"Ok, as long as you don't come here again" said the farmer as he called the emergency services who came very quickly and escorted the two to the hospital
It was revealed that Keinhelfs leg needed to be amputated as the farmers gun had completely tore it apart, as for Kaori her hip was shattered on one side by the gunshot and parts of her hip were replaced with metallic parts .
Kaori Afterwards was arrested by the police and charged with espionage, however convincing from Keinhelf, Gorbachev and Honecker allowed for a prisoner swap and Kaori was back in East Germany.
Kaori though was punished and was sentenced to 2 months of hard labour which she served well, it toughened her up and was later allowed back in the Boarder Guard.
Meanwhile
August had begun and Kōusei had competed in a competition early in the month which he did very well, getting first place as always, competing with Emi and Takashi
Later in the month: Kōusei, Tsubaki and Watari all went to a water park together which they had fun, going down many slides and Watari pulling pranks on Evreyone, putting an ice cream down Kōuseis pants and on the double boat ride on a bowl slide with Tsubaki, he chucked Tsubaki out of it leading her to slide around the bowl fast before landing in the water. It was a fun experience for them 3 and it put their minds off what had happened so far in the year from Kaoris death to exams.
Kaoris parents had gone on holiday to visit Europe and they originally wanted to go to Germany, but that place would remind them too much of Kaori, so they went to Amsterdam Instead and they had a crazy time, partied evrey night and it felt like the days of their youth had returned.
It now wasn't long until Kaoris return
