A year has now passed since Jirou, Kotaro, and Mimiko started to live together.

"Hey Kotaro, you're going to be late for school," said Mimiko as she called up stairs.

"I'm right behind you Mimiko," said Kotaro as he appeared behind her out of nowhere.

"Gah, man, how many times do I have to tell you not to do that, Kotaro?" asked Mimiko as she fell down on the ground.

"Sorry Mimiko, I'm still trying to get use to my new powers," said Kotaro as he walked over to the kitchen table and started to eat his breakfast.

"Look, I'm glad you are starting to get your powers, but remember Kotaro, you're school has humans and vampires so you can't use your powers to much," said Mimiko.

"Ok, by the way shouldn't big brother be getting up by now?" asked Kotaro as he looked a crossed the room at a lone door.

"He broke all of the alarm clocks I gave him, and I'm scared of waking him up myself because of that punch of his," said Mimiko with a worried face.

"I'll go wake him up then," said Kotaro. He then got up from the table and walked up to the door, opened it, and walked into a room where the only thing in it was a black coffin in the center.

"Big brother it's time to get up," said Kotaro as he knocked on the coffin. All at once the lid came flying off as a fist shot out and punched Kotaro in the face.

"How many times do I have to tell you not to wake me up in the morning?!" asked a mad Jirou as he got out of the coffin.

"Sorry big brother, it's just that you're going to be late for work," said Kotaro as he got up off the ground.

"My bad," said Jirou as he headed to the door.

"Big brother," said Kotaro as if he had seen a ghost.

"Come on, you're going to be late for school," said Jirou without turning back to face him.

"Oh, you're right," Kotaro as he followed him out. A few minutes later out in the town Kotaro was walking and talking with Mimiko as Jirou followed behind while he held an umbrella.

"So, you made a new friend at school huh," said Mimiko as she looked forwards.

"Yeah, her name's Mina, and she's also a vampire," said Kotaro as his face turned a little red.

"That's nice," said Mimiko with a smile.

"I'll wait here till you come back," said Jirou as he stopped at the corner.

"Alright," said Mimiko.

"By big brother," said Kotaro as he and Mimiko crossed a street to a school.

"Hello there Mr. Mochizuki, nice to see you again Ms. Katsaragi," said a female teacher at the gate.

"Hello Mrs. Terra," said Kotaro.

"Hey Kotaro!" called a girl with blond hair and brown eyes as she ran up to him.

"Hey Mina!" said Kotaro with a smile.

"Well, see you later Kotaro," said Mimiko as she started to walk away.

"By Mimiko," said Kotaro as he headed into the school with Mina. Mimiko then met back up with Jirou and the two headed for the Order Coffin Company building.

"Jirou baby, how have you been?" asked Rinsuke as Jirou and Mimiko passed him in the hallway.

"Shut it Rinsuke," said Jirou as he had his eyes closed. The three then came to a door and Mimiko knocked on it. The door suddenly opened on its own.

"About time you got here Jirou," said Kain who was sitting at a table along with Mitaki, Sei, Zelmon, and Zhang.

"Hey Jirou where's Kotaro, I haven't seen him of late," said Zelmon.

"He's at school," said Jirou as he took a seat next to Mimiko.

"So you put him in school did you," said Mitaki.

"Yes we did, now may I ask what this meeting is about?" asked Mimiko.

"It's about the 13th yard," said Rinsuke.

"Wait, I thought this dummy couldn't talk about that?!" said Jirou as he pointed at him.

"I lifted the spell for today only," said Kain.

"So what is it about the 13th yard that you want to talk about?" asked Mimiko.

"Last night an alarm went off on the west side of the city," said Mitaki.

"This video was taken by a camera on a light pole," said Sei as the room went dark and a video started to play.

"Wait, is that?!" said Jirou with a little anger in his voice as he saw three figures in cloaks walk up. One of them turned to the camera and destroyed it, but not before it coot her face.

"Cassa!" said Jirou with a lot of anger in his voice.

"How did she get back in?" asked Mimiko.

"Walkerman used a unicorn horn to piers a hole in my barrier," said Sei.

"What does a unicorn's horn have to do with this?" asked Mimiko.

"It can piers anything and apparently the shield around this city is one of those things," said Jirou.

"Oh, but what does this have to do with the 13th yard?" asked Mimiko.

"We all know that the Kowloon attack was just a distraction so they could locate the 13th yard," said Zhang.

"Did they find it?" asked Jirou.

"If they did they would have a hard time getting there," said Kain.

"And why is that?" asked Zelman.

"The entrance is under this building," said Rinsuke as he pointed down.

"So what does this have to do with me and Jirou?" asked Mimiko.

"You haven't told her yet?" asked Mitaki as he looked at Jirou.

"Told me what?" asked Mimiko.

"The day for me to give Kotaro my blood is coming soon," said Jirou as he avoided eye contact.

"It can't be, do you really have to give your blood to him, isn't there another way?" asked Mimiko with a worried voice.

"Alice is the only one who can kill the Kowloon king for good, and the only way for her to come back is for me to give my blood to Kotaro!" said Jirou as he got up and started for the door.

"Wait a minute Jirou," said Kain.

"I'll be back tonight with Kotaro," said Jirou as he left.

"Jirou!" said Mimiko as she started after him.

"Mimiko wait a minute," said Sei as he raised a hand.

"What is it Sr.?" asked Mimiko as she turned to him.

"I have a favor to ask you, this also goes for you Zelman," said Sei.

"This sounds interesting," said Zelmon as he put his elbows on the table and interlocked his fingers.

"Oh, it will be," said Sei.
