Haruka lets out a yelp as she shuts her eyes in response as STARISH members try to call her attention and warn her. "NANAMI!" they yell, before Shining throws a smoke bomb into the room making the three of them disappear into the fog.

"AHH! WHERE DID NANAMI GO?" Otoya calls out frantically, a look of concern on his face. The other group members quickly respond to his call, and they all look around the room with confusion and worry.

Just as the boys begins to panic, Camus speaks up sternly, "Stop acting like fools," his tone annoyed. "Just because Saotome decided to speak with Haruka privately in his office is no reason to panic. It is obvious where she went, and that it does not warrant any panic or concern," he adds, sighing.

"Which is, unfortunate. I was looking forward to speaking with her." Eiichi comments with a shrug, his tone betraying a hint of mischief, causing STARISH to collectively cringe for a moment.

Van chuckles gleefully and places a firm hand on Eiichi's shoulder, giving him a light squeeze, "Haha, don't be such a weirdo, Eiichi. You're scaring 'em!"

Eiichi laughs softly under his breath, seeming to enjoy the effect his words had on the other members of STARISH. Looking around at them with a devious smirk, he replies, "Hahaha, no, don't worry. I'm certainly not trying to scare them."

He pauses for a second, "At least, for now..." The room, like a pin-drop, falls into a stony silence.

Natsuki breaks this silence with a chuckle and a playful tone "Hahaha, you guys certainly did make a grand entrance!" He says, laughter in his voice.

"Seriously! Man, I thought we were being attacked..." Syo exclaims with a dramatic facepalm.

"It's only natural~ We're all about making a big entrance~" Nagi replies, "It simply wouldn't be HEAVENS if it wasn't grand." he says, smirking. Syo rolls his eyes and throws up his hands, muttering, "Whatever, just knock normally this time..." A quiet, but playful laughter fills the air.

Ranmaru clicked his tongue in a tone dripping with irritation, as he couldn't hide his displeasure from his expression. "A grand entrance? Pft, what a way to be annoying," he muttered to himself, never even glancing at HEAVENS.

Yamato's eyebrows twitched and looked at Ranmaru with a hint of irritation on his face. "Oi, what did you just say?" His harsh tone demanded an explanation for Ranmaru's comment.

Seeing the rising tension, Reiji quickly steps in and tries to defuse the situation. "GAN, GAN! Ran-Ran... Even if you feel that way, don't say it like that!" Ranmaru sternly tells Reiji to back off, leaving Reiji surprised at his shift in attitude, slumping his shoulders in acceptance.

Yamato's expression fills with anger and it is evident he is about to take issue with Ranmaru in a way that will undoubtedly cause trouble, but Eiichi cuts him off swiftly. "Yamato... we're not here to cause trouble."

His commanding tone diffuses the rising tension. Yamato's angry gaze is broken by Eiichi's command, and the tension that is building within him seems to disappear, at least for the time being. "Tsk, Whatever," he crosses his arms and turns away from the group.

Kira's voice breaks the current tension, sounding sincere and apologetic, "We apologize for... Yamato's reaction..." His tone is serious and genuine as he bows his head to QUARTET NIGHT.

"Yes!" Eiji backs him up with a slight smile on his face, "We would like to say sorry for barging in without warning..." his tone sounding sheepish and light.

Reiji chuckles cheerfully and poses in a peace sign as he makes his entrance, seemingly trying to lighten the mood of the room. "Hmmm? It's okie-dokie! No need to be so formal." he quips with a lighthearted tone.

...

Meanwhile, the other members of QUARTET NIGHT continue to ignore HEAVENS and their attempts at conversation, leaving only an awkward and tense silence. As Reiji and the others sweatdrop from the lack of interest, the atmosphere of the room grows even more awkward and tense, the feeling of discomfort increasing with each passing second.

The sound of heels clicking echoes through the room, breaking the silence. All eyes turn in that direction, the mystery of its origin leaving some confused and curious.

"Minna-san!"

is heard as Haruka's presence is welcomed by them, with their tensions being released as they sigh in relief at the sight of their beloved composer.

As Haruka makes her way towards the center of the room, Van calls out boldly to her with a cheeky grin on his face. "Ha-chan, Ha-chan!" He says with cheer in his tone, as he waves enthusiastically upon seeing his crush.

As this occurs, STARISH looks over at Van with a mixture of disbelief and annoyance, trying to hide their reactions to Van's bold display of affection for Haruka.

Haruka appears taken aback by Van's sudden greeting, but quickly composes herself, and responds with a sweet smile to cover her surprise. "Kiryuin-san..? Um, hello." she adds sheepishly, unsure of how to proceed with such a forward display of affection towards her.

After a moment, Haruka takes time to address the rest of the bands with a soft smile. Tokiya smiles back in response, displaying an air of genuine curiosity as he asks, "How was the meeting, Nanami-san?"

Reiji immediately interrupts the moment with a burst of enthusiasm, as he asks, "Ooooh, yea! What did Shiny-san and Ragie-san have to say?" "Shiny-san and Ragie-san...?"

Everyone's faces show confusion and surprise as the nickname that was just spoken aloud rings in their heads. Haruka shakes her head forcefully to snap herself out of the confusion and provide a clearer picture for all present.

"Right! Um, the meeting went smoothly," she replies with a relieved smile. "And both of them thankfully approved of the concert! Now, we can prepare for the concert as planned. I'm sure all of you will make a wonderful and flawless performance," she says gently with a warm smile.

There's a small wave of excitement amongst the bands as several members of the three bands begin to smile and nod at each other. "Dang, that surely pumps me up!" Van grumbles quietly as he pumps his fists his voice rising in volume.

His words are met with a soft chuckle from Eiichi, who quickly follows up with a supportive reply. "Good! You can count on us, Nanami Haruka." He says with a slightly amused expression.

"Ahhhh! I can't wait to sing for Nan-" Otoya says before freezing and looking around in a panic, forgetting where he was and the people he was with.

"I mean! O-Our fans! I wanna sing for them already!" he adds with a nervous laugh, as he tries to brush off his slip-up. Several nearby members heard his original statement and looked at him with puzzled expressions.

"...How? With what material? Haruka hasn't even started composing yet." Ai declares in a monotone voice, seemingly confused by Otoya's eagerness. His words elicit a few smirks and laughs from the bands. Haruka chuckles softly to herself, before taking in a breath of determination.

"Ah, in that case, I'll get started right away!" She cheers, causing the tension to melt away and everyone to relax and enjoy themselves.

"Fool... The theme hasn't even been announced by Saotome yet," Camus remarks flatly, turning his gaze away and crossing his arms. Haruka drops her head slightly, and quietly mutters, "Oh. I might have got carried away.."

A lighthearted, carefree laugh escapes from Natsuki, and he speaks to Haruka with a mischievous smile on his face. "Haru-chan is sooooo cute!"

Haruka's face erupts into an intense blush and she tilts her head shyly to the side, "E-Eh?"

Natsuki continues to tease her as a playful grin spreads across his face. "If you continue being so cute, I may have to steal you all~ for myself!"

Syo's head spins towards Natsuki with surprising speed, almost breaking his neck in the process. "DID I HEAR THAT RIGHT!?" he exclaims, sounding almost frantic as he looks at Natsuki in high alert and disbelief.

Natsuki looks surprised, not expecting such a strong response to his teasing. "Syo-chan?"

"Don't SYO-CHAN ME!" Syo exclaims in disbelief. Ren laughs and closes his eyes, before glancing at Haruka with a brief, coy smile. "My lady."

Haruka looks over at him, "Yes?" she responds.

Ren continues to speak his tone growing with curiosity. "Well, are there any more things we should know about?" he asks, his eyes fixed on her as he waits for her response.

"Ah, right!" Haruka says, snapping out of her confusion, "That's another thing... The president informed me that all of you will be paired together to form Special Units."

This announcement causes all the members of both STARISH and QUARTET NIGHT to perk up in surprise. While the members of HEAVENS seem to be unfamiliar with the concept of the Special Units, causing them to exchange confused glances with each other.

As their eyes meet, Nagi raises his eyebrow in confusion and asks, "Uh, what are Special Units-" "Hold on." Ranmaru suddenly interrupts the conversation, "A Unit? For the concert?" he says, confused.

"...Y-Yes?" Haruka hesitantly confirms.

"What even made them think of an idea like that?" he asks in a slightly confused tone. "C'mon, Ran-Ran! Don't be a killjoy!" Reiji says in a playful tone, as he places his hand lightly on Ranmaru's shoulder.

Nagi sighs impatiently, bending his body and waving his hands in the air to get everyone's attention. "Heeellooooo~?" he implores, followed by a frustrated sigh.

"Seriously," he continues, "is anyone gonna clue us in on what Special Units are, Or are we supposed to use our magic powers of telepathy to guess? We're not Akinator, ya know?"

Ranmaru raises an eyebrow and then asks with a bit of confusion in his voice. "Aki-what now?"

"Wow..." Nagi is left speechless as he opens his mouth in disbelief. "You guys sure are old."

"Nagi!" Eiji exclaims, giving him a warning glance.

"What?! I'm just saying!" Nagi just shrugs his shoulders and raises his hands in defense.

"According to my data," Ai begins to explain, "Akinator is an online web 'Genie' that can tell you what you're thinking about by asking you simple questions." Ai's words gain the interest and curiosity of a few band members, who glance at him with surprise as his words sink in.

"An online genie..? Amazing!" Cecil exclaims with genuine excitement as he hears about the concept of the online genie.

"Yea? Anyway!" Nagi glances at Ai with confusion and interest, a small smile on his face as he ponders what he said. "According to your data? Weird. You talk like some kind of robo-"

Syo widens his eyes and looks to Haruka for help, "N-Nagi-kun! I'll explain what units are!" Haruka calls out immediately, with a panicked look on her face as she glances over at Syo.

Nagi's head whips back and he stares at Haruka, surprised. "You will? Ugh. Finally~" Nagi's voice becomes light-hearted and grateful as he looks at Haruka. Syo's panic dies down as he mouths the words 'Nice save!' to Haruka, letting her know his appreciation of her quick thinking.

A hint of relief crosses Haruka's face as she smiles at Syo. She glances back at Nagi and clears her throat. "Well," Haruka murmurs, "The way the president explained it to me is that once one member from each band gets selected, they go through a matching process to form a trio." Her voice is soft, but it carries a note of confidence.

"I see, so it's pretty much like the duet projects!" Eiji interjects with a bright smile. "Except this time, instead of two people, we would have three." His eyes sparkle with enthusiasm as he discusses the new project with the group.

"How interesting..." Eiichi comments thoughtfully, placing his hands on his chin and studying Haruka with an expression of mild curiosity. Finally, he leans in closer and whispers, "You will be composing all of the songs, correct?"

Haruka looks up in surprise, but before she can reply, Eiichi has already stepped back with a small smirk on his face.

"M-Mhm. I'll be composing for this concert." Haruka says firmly, but her voice falters a bit as Eiichi chuckles. His eyes narrow slightly in amusement, and he gazes at her. "Good!" he exclaims, and a faint blush spreads across his cheeks, his glowing glasses catching everyone's attention.

"Even though you are not ours," Eiichi says, and his gaze locks with hers. "For you to write for us is a great honor." Haruka looks up, a bit bewildered, then smiles, unsure of how to feel.

"Ain't that impressive?" Ranmaru adds, his voice dripping with bitter sarcasm.

The hostility in his voice draws the attention of the other band members, who look at him with shock. "Coming into our agency, thinking you're hot stuff just because you're working with her? What a joke," Ranmaru says, sneering at Eiichi as he crosses his arms and glares.

Ren tries to lighten the mood by saying in a nervous chuckle, "How about we don't do this today? It's only been an hour, after all."

But Eiichi ignores Ren's attempt to ease the tension and instead keeps his smirk as he faces Ranmaru, who stands, glaring back with defiance in his eyes.

"It didn't occur to me that you'd be the jealous type, Kurosaki Ranmaru." The atmosphere is charged with the growing tension, as Ren tries to maintain civility, but Eiichi and Ranmaru's eyes remain locked on each other.

"Ha?" Ranmaru's frown deepens the longer he looks at Eiichi. "What the hell are you talking about, four-eyes?"

Haruka thinks anxiously to herself as she watches the tension between the two idols increase with each passing moment, and if someone doesn't intervene soon, it could end up spiraling out of control.

'What should I do-?'

'...Eh?'

She suddenly jolted out of her thoughts when she felt a gentle hand on her shoulder. She turned around to see Ren placing his finger over his mouth. Haruka blinks a few times in confusion "Jinguji-san..?" she says, looking up at Ren with a slight look of surprise that he noticed her panic.

"It's best if you don't involve yourself, my lady," he says gently. Haruka takes a moment before considering what he said before nodding in understanding. "O-Okay."

They exchanged soft smiles before shifting their attention back to the ongoing banter between Eiichi and Ranmaru, as they continued to challenge one another.

Eiichi adjusts his glasses in a cocky manner, his voice dripping with a condescending tone. "It's sad to see you in denial, Kurosaki Ranmaru." His smirk is haughty, and his words are filled with the attitude of someone who knows they have gotten under their opponent's skin.

"If only you were honest with yourself..." The room is quiet as Eiichi and Ranmaru face off, their pride stopping either from backing down. Everyone watches, their attention firmly fixed on the two, waiting to see how this showdown will play out.

"You know, you're starting to piss me off..."

The tense air is suddenly cut through as Ranmaru stands from his seat, his temper appearing to have reached a boiling point. His expression turns threatening as he faces Eiichi, and his voice fills the room with anger.

"Everyone." Tokiya breaks the silence with a serious expression, commanding attention and stopping this situation from escalating further.

"Please settle down and refrain from having arguments." His tone is firm, and it seems to affect the two dueling egos. Eiichi and Ranmaru step back, and for a moment, it seems as if the situation has calmed, as everyone starts to release their held breath.

Ai spoke up with a disappointed sigh, "Unbelievable, we've already wasted 2 minutes and 19 seconds." He says in a deadpan tone that seems to imply more irritation than anything else.

"If we continue like this, there's a 100% guarantee that Shining Saotome and Raging Otori will end up discontinuing the joint concert." He turns his gaze towards the two feuding egos as if to let them know that the consequences of their actions are not just between them, but that they affect other members of the band as well.

"No way..." Haruka gasps, looking around the room, and everyone else is similarly taken aback by Ai's words. His statement has caused a tense, heavy silence to fill the room, as the weight of the words sink in.

Eiichi is silent, as is Ranmaru, and the two are reflecting on the words they have heard. The room is still for a moment as everyone tries to process what has just happened.

The heavy silence continues, and as it drags on, Masato finally breaks the silence with a calm voice. "It can't be helped..." he says, slowly moving his fingers to his chin as he speaks.

He continues, his voice even and level. "It is important that everyone sets their interests aside, and work together for the concert," he states calmly, and the air in the room softens a little bit more.

"Right," Tokiya confirms, and his gaze sweeps across the room. "If we set aside our concerns, we can finally focus on collaboration as a collective, and make this concert a masterpiece," he states, his voice filled with determination.

Ranmaru narrows his eyes at Eiichi with a firm gaze, crossing his arms before sinking back down onto the couch. Eiichi adjusts his glasses on his face. After a short moment of considering the options and coming to a silent agreement.

"Now, let's all quietly discuss-" Tokiya begins, but he is quickly cut off by Shining's loud laughter. "BWUUAAAHAHAHA!" Shining roars, making everyone look over in surprise.

'...When will I get to have a moment of peace?' Tokiya asks with a sigh, his brow glistening with anxiety and sweat as he tries to manage everyone's wild enthusiasm.

"BWUAHAHAHAHA!" Shining continues to laugh, and to everyone's surprise, he attempts to do a cartwheel in the middle of the room.

For a second, it seems like Shining might actually pull off the move, but then, to everyone's horror, he misses a step and crashes straight into the wall.

A chorus of exclamations erupts from the rest of the group as they react to Shining's mishap, their voices unified in surprise as they exclaim: "PRESIDENT!?"

As the entire group is left in a state of stunned silence, Nagi's monotone voice breaks the tension. "Did he die?" "A TRUUE IDOL MUST PUSH PAST HIS LIMITS!" Shining shouts and everyone looks over at him. "Oh. Never mind."

Shining emerges from the rubble, his clothes and body covered in dust, and his energy seemingly untamed. He points forcefully toward the ceiling as he says in a loud voice, "He must step outside his comfort zone, or he will never learn!"

Shining turns around, and when he sees that Ranmaru is paying close attention to him, "KUROSAKI RANMARU!" he proclaims loudly, in a commanding tone.

Ranmaru's eyes widen in surprise as he realizes that the words are meant for him, and he quickly shifts his attention towards Shining. "I'm sure it's no surprise that you don't always get along with your workmates. But you have grown since then. HOWEVER!" His tone changes as he raises a finger and continues, "This situation was enough proof that you haven't changed in a ti-ti-tiny biiit..."

Ranmaru's facial expression changes dramatically as he listens to his words. He averts his eyes and sighs deeply, "I know. I get it already." he says, his tone is serious and weary. He takes a step back to consider the situation more carefully.

"Kurosaki-senpai..." Haruka speaks up quietly, as she gently turns her head towards his bandmates. Everyone's faces are noticeably relaxed, with their eyes closed or turned away.

Suddenly, There is a puff of smoke, and in it, Raging Otori stands, a frown etched on his face. Eiichi's eyes widen in shock, followed by a few of his bandmates.

Raging Otori glares sternly at HEAVENS, and addresses them in a cutting, angry tone. "You think you are professionals? You are a disgrace, I have overestimated your abilities." He exclaims, letting his words sink in, his voice is like a knife cutting through the air.

Eiichi clenches his fist, his expression frustrated by his father's audacity. "That was only us trying to communicate. We can't avoid-" Raging cuts him off, glaring his way.

"Who are you to speak, boy?" he hisses, and Eiichi falls silent. "It's obvious that you can't communicate without humiliating yourself. Well, it's not like this is the first time you've made a fool out of yourself."

Shining coughs to avert everybody's attention, and they all turn to him to see what he has to say. "Upon seeing your behavior, we decided that the Special Unit groups are to be anonymous."

Shining's words shock everyone in the room, and they give gasps and puzzled expressions. Otoya's jaw drops as he says in surprise, "A-Anonymous!? B-B-But-!?"

"NO BUTS! It has already been decided!" Shining exclaims, waving his finger and silencing everyone before they can speak out against his decision. The tension in the room grows heavier, as everyone seems to be at a loss for words. No one knows how they will work together without knowing each other's identities.

"With all due respect," Tokiya speaks up, his expression filled with confusion as he asks, "How will this benefit our development as idols?"

"Not revealing our possible teammates would just make it difficult to prepare for meetings, and how will our fans support us if they don't know who to expect from each unit?" He pauses, trying to wrap his head around the decision that has been made.

Shining stands straight and firm, as he adds to the conversation. "Consider this as a lesson to be learned..." he says, and Raging's voice booms from a different part of the room. "If you can't handle knowing who your partners will be, it's better not to know anything at all."

The words seem to hang in the air, as everyone absorbs their meaning. Everyone looks around at each other, considering the implications of what has just been said.

"YOU ARE ALL DISMISSED!" Shining declares with his voice echoing off the walls. In one swift motion, he reaches up and grabs hold of a nearby leash, swinging out of the room like he's been launched by a trampoline.

"Don't you dare disappoint us." Raging adds, before disappearing in a puff of smoke. The lobby falls silent, everyone staring with their mouths agape, completely stunned by what has just unfolded.

"The situation just kept getting worse." Camus sighs in exasperation, closing his eyes and shaking his head as he turns away to leave.

Ranmaru shakes his head in disbelief. "I thought I had enough things to think about, now I have to worry about the possibility of being paired up with four-eyes over here." he says deadpan, before walking out of the lobby, slouching and grumbling under his breath.

"This plan is strange. But nonetheless, interesting." Ai speaks aloud, his tone filled with curiosity and intrigue. As he turns to leave the lobby, he casts a brief glance over his shoulder as he ponders the possibilities.

"O-OY! Where are you guys going?!" Reiji calls out, a panicked look spreading across his face as he sees his bandmates moving quickly in the opposite direction. As he jogs to catch up with them, he turns around to wave at Haruka and the others with a warm grin.

"Your seniors will be making their leave! See ya!" he calls out, before continuing his mad dash to keep up with the rest of the band.

Haruka softly waves goodbye as she stares off into space. Cecil stands next to her, also looking distracted and out of it. "There they go..." He says, his words hanging in the air.

They are soon to be snapped out of their gaze, turning their heads towards the sound and chaotic banter between HEAVENS. "EIICHI! This is your fault!" Nagi complains, pointing at Eiichi with a pout.

Yamato rolls his eyes and says with a smirk, "You said we're not here to cause trouble, Eiichi. You damn hypocrite." Eiichi is seen sweating buckets as he hurriedly adjusts his glasses, a nervous smirk permanently plastered onto his face.

Van lightly smacks Eiichi on the back, almost sending his glasses flying off with the sudden contact. "Ya better take accountability for this, Eiichi!" He says, accompanied by a chuckle.

"I-I know." Eiichi hurriedly adjusts his glasses as he speaks, lifting his head and eventually locking eyes with Haruka. He sighs, before taking a step towards her way.

Haruka remains still as Eiichi draws closer, her eyes blinking quickly and her breath held. Suddenly, the members of STARISH, led by Syo, charge into the scene with the intent to protect Haruka at all costs.

They take defensive positions in various forms of martial arts, eyeing Eiichi with suspicion as they take battle positions. Tokiya and Ren remain behind, their eyebrows furrowing in confusion.

Eiichi stops in his tracks, completely taken aback by the unusual sight in front of him. He looks between Haruka and the members of STARISH repeatedly, uncertain of how he should proceed.

Shion mutters quietly under his breath as he watches the chaos unfold, "An alliance..." Eiji laughs weakly, looking at Eiichi with some sympathy. "Nii-san has got himself in a predicament, hasn't he..?"

The silence continues as everyone waits with bated breath.

Syo begins to shake from the strain of maintaining his difficult pose, and he lets out a low grumbling sound. Masato sweatdrops, but manages to maintain his stance. His voice is weary as he speaks, "Why... Why are we doing this again?"

"I'm surprised how you're even going along with this, Masato-kun!" says Natsuki bluntly, his tone filled with surprise as the ridiculous defensive pose doesn't align with the cool image he knows Masato has.

"O-Only because Ittoki pushed me to get in formation!" Masato exclaims, embarrassed.

"M-Me!?" Otoya widens his eyes and points to himself.

"Very well." Eiichi's voice catches everyone's attention, and they turn to face him. His tone is confident, and his glasses shine in the light as he speaks. "I must give a performance worthy of forgiveness!"

"A performance?" Cecil asks as a spotlight shines on Eiichi. Everyone's eyes are immediately drawn towards the light as they stare in bewilderment as Eiichi poses dramatically beneath the spotlight with dramatic flair.

He then raises a hand to the heavens, suddenly, a random piano cuts in with a sad melody, and Syo's voice drowns out his confusion.

"Where the heck did the spotlight come from?!" Syo exclaims, his voice fading as the music grows even more dramatic and heartbreaking.

"AND WHAT'S UP WITH THE MUSIC!?" He yells, snapping his head towards the source.

Kira is seen eagerly playing it with his eyes closed, utterly immersed in the music. Haruka watches the entire situation unfold with concern, as she watches Eiichi close his eyes and pose each sentence.

"Must I face this kind of treatment? In a way, I do deserve it. All I ask of you is forgiveness..." As Eiichi continues to deliver his monologue, Syo waves his hands dismissively.

"Yeah yeah yeah, we get it!" he hurriedly exclaims. Eiichi stops in his tracks as do the piano notes that were playing in the background.

"Well, that was easy," Eiichi stands up straight, snapping his fingers to turn off the spotlight. Everyone turns to him in shock, as Eiichi gives a nonchalant smile.

His watch buzzes, as he idly lifts his wrist to check it. "I'm afraid we have to leave," Eiichi says, as his bandmates walk toward the exit. Eiji waves goodbye as Van says his farewells to Haruka, while Yamato and Shion exchange glances with her. Kira strolls out casually, while Nagi is seen enthusiastically waving goodbye.

Eiichi suddenly stops and turns around to face his friends. His eyes meet Haruka's as he speaks with a calm demeanor while smiling. "We'll see you very soon," he says, As he turns around and exits the room, the last thing everyone hears is his words hanging in their ears like his shadow.

"This is just the beginning."

Ryuya's footsteps echo throughout the hallway as he and Ringo stroll through.

"Will Saotome ever go easy on those kids?" Ryuya asks with a sigh, while Ringo responds with a huff. "It's necessary! Shiny knows what's best for them~" he says, with the words echoing in the hall.

Ryuya abruptly stops in his tracks, as the two turn to see an entire section of the wall destroyed.

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO THE WALL?"

HEY! It's been a while since I last updated my story but I'm back with a new update! Sorry for leaving you guys hanging. I hope this update is worthy of paying back for my "sins" lol. Anyway, I always knew Ranmaru and Eiichi would clash and I just HAD to write it down. Also, It's the way Nagi figures out that Ai is a robot... Nagi is too insightful to be a little runt. (JK)

I've always wished we could've seen more QN + HEAVENS scenes together, so I had to go ahead and write the interactions I wanted to see in canon! That is all for this chapter, and I'd appreciate if you leave a review! See you guys soon! I'm already working on the 4th chapter ;)
