After Ryoushi had fallen in front of the school, he was rushed to the hospital.
"The doctors say he will be fine, the wound was not too bad and all he needs is some rest and a blood transfusion," said List as they all stood outside his room.
"This is all my fault, Shirou would never have targeted him if not for me," said Ryouko, her whole body shaking as she sat in a chair looking through the open door at the boy laying in a bed.
"You can't blame yourself," said Saburo as he walked up.
"What are you doing here?" asked Ringo.
"I heard what happened to Ryoushi, so I thought I would check on him and you," said Saburo.
"Did I hear my name?" asked Ryoushi from his bed.
"We didn't think you would wake up this soon," said List as they walked into the room to talk with him.
"Guess I'm lucky," said Ryoushi with a smile.
"Too lucky if you ask me," said Shirou as he stood in the doorway behind them.
"Why are you here?!" asked Saburo as he put Ryouko behind him in order to protect her from the madman.
"I came to offer a challenge to Ryoushi," said Shirou.
"What kind of challenge?" asked Ryoushi as he glared daggers at the other boy.
"In two months the two of us will fight, and the loser leaves the country to never return," said Shirou.
"Why would he agree to that?" asked Ryouko.
"Because I'll go after all of you and your loved ones if he doesn't, and you know what I'll do to them so it's either he fights me or you lose everyone," said Shirou with that evil smile of his.
"Then I guess I have no choice," said Ryoushi.
"I'm looking forward to this," said Shirou before turning to leave while laughing.
"Are you sure about this?" asked Ryouko with a worried expression.
"It's alright, Ryouko, I have a plan to beat him," said Ryoushi who was smiling which shocked the others.
