Yami laughed and says to Hikari "Well, it's like what did happen in the past isn't it?" Hikari didn't know what should he say. He just talking with them like normal.
When they were talking, one of Aimi's friends ask Hikari and Ayasa "How long did both of you were together?" Hikari shook his head. He says to Aimi's friend "Well, we're not like what did all of you think. we never close to each other like what did you think. right, Ayasa?" Ayasa agreed with it. Suddenly Aimi goes to them says to them "They just too shy to talk about it. They're both tsundere. Trust me!" When Aimi says that. her friends believe in it. So, they can know how serious a relationship between Hikari and Ayasa.
they can't say anything when that happens. So Hikari asks all of them "Why are we. No, why all of us meet here by all of the sudden?" They didn't know what should they say. But Aimi looked at Hikari and says "It because my fate is to live forever with my precious Onii-chan!" Hikari just didn't believe it. he never thought that he will return to the state he is before. Neu and Nimura saw Hikari looks like he was misunderstood it. so they tell him the truth.
"Sabu-sama said that he sent us here just for a competition. it's not like we're going to make an anime. keep calm."
When hearing that from them, it reminds Hikari of something that happens in the past. He says to them "I hope someone still knows who is me in the past. Because I would like to tell them that. when I see this. it reminds me of the past. the past on where did everything started here." they were so shocked when they hear that. they ask Hikari if he has come there before. Hikari smiled and says "Of course, in my life. this is where did I start my life alone. sometimes, I'm hoping if I can reach that dream with them." Hikari talk like he knows about that place. they didn't know what did Hikari do at there before. But they believe that it was Hikari's precious memory.
When their orders arrived and they eat them together. Hikari looked at them when they were eating. It reminds Hikari of something that happens in the past. At that time he thought in his mind "I wonder if they still remember me. Maybe we will always like this. always be to-" Ayasa saw Hikari still didn't eat yet. she asks Hikari "What are you wondering at? Your food is getting cold. I-It's not like I care about it! Just don't waste your food!!"
when the others saw that. they say "I see.... a secret relationship?" Both of them say that it was wrong. It just normal talk between them. They agreed with it. But suddenly Aimi says "Stop it, everyone. just let them be. It's not good if we're disturbing the others sweet moments."
Hikari and Ayasa disagree with it. They say "Stop it right there! We're not like that. Anyways, just eat our food, and let's go away." All of them laughed when they hear that. Since it looks like Hikari and Ayasa were so serious when talking about it. They just eat.
.
.
After they were done eating, Hikari says to them "So, we're going to separate from here. Thanks, Ayasa!" when the others hear Hikari thanked Ayasa. They ask Hikari "What did both of you done just now?" Hikari didn't answer it. He says to Neu and Nimura "So, let's go. we still have work isn't it?" Before Hikari goes, Aimi smiled and says to him "I hope we will meet again the other day. See ya, onii-chan!"
Hikari just smiled back at her and go away. When they walked away, Hikari asks Neu "So, where we're going?" Neu showed Hikari the location that he got from Sabu-sama. Neu says to Hikari "Sabu-sama says that we need to participate in this competition and win it. As what did he tell me, it just a competition of making arts. So maybe in this competition, we will meet with people that greater than us." Hikari agreed with it. he says to them "even that so, we just can't give up on it yet. let's do all of our best!".
When they were walking, Yami says to Hikari "Doesn't it looks like you're going to do a lot of things? Are you okay with it?" Hikari just smiled and answer it "Of course, You just don't know who is me back then. Maybe you should just follow me this time and take this chance to understand me." Yami understands it then they just keep moving.
When they arrive at the location, There was one man was waiting for them. Neu goes to that man and asks him about the competition. He gives that man the name of their group and members. That man was so shocked when he knows their team name. Nimura is the first one who saw it, He asks that man "Is there was something wrong?" That man shooked his head and give them a file. That man tells them that the info about the competition is all in there. So they can go from there.
That man walked ahead and dropped a letter on the floor. Hikari takes it and going to give it back. But that man just ignores him. Hikari looked at it and saw his name on it. Hikari keeps it with him and asks Neu and Nimura "So, where are we going?" Neu showed Hikari the next location that he got from Sabu-sama. So, they just go there.
Hikari wants to read that letter. But he was thinking that must be a reason why did that man do that. He didn't want to make Neu and Nimura know about it. So he didn't read it. he waits till a time that he can be alone.
When Hikari was walking, he got a call from Sabu-sama.
"Hey, where did all of you go? I didn't tell you about it. but the thing I want all of you to do is drawing a manga."
Hikari was so shocked when he heard that. he stopped walking. Neu and Nimura saw it. they looked on Hikari. But suddenly Hikari says with a high voice "WHY YOU NEVER TELL US ABOUT THIS?! DID YOU THINK WE CAN FACE IT WITHOUT PLANNING ANYTHING?!"
"That is who you really are, right? Aigami Hikari. The one who always do miracle things and things that no one will do."
Hikari never tells Sabu-sama about it. he was a bit weird about it. he quickly asks Sabu-sama from where did he hear that. But Sabu-sama just answers it calmly that he just hear that from someone that knows him. However, he just told Hikari to keep moving and focus on it. He ends the call after he says that. Hikari didn't think about any weird things because he still can't confirm that which people that already forgotten and remember him because of the effect of the battle between him and Yami.
Hikari was expected that maybe Sabu-sama is a friend of his friend that still remember him. But who is it? Hikari didn't want to make his mind blown off by that. he waits for a time that he can use to read the mail.
When they arrive at the location, they meet with a guard that secure that place. Neu found a tag in that file, Neu shows it to that man. When that man saw the ID on that card. He just let them go.
They go to the counter there for registration. Neu lends that man the file. that man takes it and checks every detail that he found in it. That man saw each of their name in it. he was so shocked when he saw the name (Aigami Hikari). He looked at Hikari and asks him "you're Aigami Hikari?" Hikari shook his head. he says. "Ou, sorry about that. My name is Higami Aikari. Our leader has a problem there." that man understands it. Then he gives each of them an ID Card. He says to them.
"To live in this place, you need to use that ID Card. If you lose it, Then you can't enter this building anymore. Because without the ID Card, you will be treated as an outsider. the outsider is not allowed here. Also, you still need it to enter your room. three of you're not going to share a room. but there will be room for each of you."
They understand it then that man told them to go to their room and wait for the things they're going to tell them. their room is on another floor of the buildings they were a bit shocked about it. They say by themself "What is this place for real?"
Chapter 5
-To the Stage of ours-
When Hikari was alone in his room, he takes that chance to read what in that letter. he saw the address in that letter. It was the address of a sender. Hikari just can't believe it. he asks Yami "Hey, Can you hear me? I have a question." Yami answer it. he told Hikari to enter the quantum memory later. after he was done reading the letter.
Hikari takes time on reading it.
" We detected that the user of Quantum memory and it will be hunted down. our mission is to have the access to Quantum memory then we eliminate the target. we have no reason to stop what did we do. until the world, gets its peace back. that human must be eliminated. no matter what did it takes. those who didn't follow these orders, must be eliminated no matter what did it takes. a balance between the light and the dark will never happen."
Hikari put down that letter after he read it. he just can't believe it. He thought that the war has ended. but why did the war has bought back? Hikari didn't want any of them to be killed because of him. suddenly he got a call from Ageru. he takes it and asks Ageru "What do you want?" Ageru didn't say anything. but Hikari heard the voice of someone else there.it looks like a rude happened there. Hikari asks Ageru "Hey, answer me. What just happened there?"
Ageru takes the phone and says to Hikari "Sorry, there was something just happened here. I can't talk about this and more of it. You do not need to worry about it. we are okay. I need to end the call. See ya."
At that time, Hikari thought by himself "It was my fault all of this happened and same as always. I can't even help them with it. Wh-" Suddenly he got a message from Akaru. Akaru says to him "Well, I know who you are. But don't worry about us. I bet that you know who are us too." Hikari was so relieved when he heard that. He put trust in them, then he enters the Quantum memory.
Hikari still thinking about what did just happened back then. But when he enters the Quantum memory, Everything just the same as always. he meets with Yami and asks him "Is there something that happened here just then?" Yami shook his head and smiled. he says to Hikari "There was nothing to worried about. everything was okay. Hikari was so shocked when he saw Yami acting like that. He asks Yami if there was something good happened. But Yami didn't tell him about it. Yami says to him that it was a secret from everyone. Because Yami was saying that, he started to figure it out by himself.
He suddenly reminded of something that Yami has done before. her quickly going to confirm about it with Yami. "Wait, don't tell me that you get out from here and do weird things again?" Yami just smiled and didn't say anything. Then he showed Hikari something.
Yami asks Hikari "Hey If you can choose to save your life or your friend's life. which one will you save?" Without asking anything from Yami, He takes a deep breath and says "Of course I am going to save my friends. I don't want them to be sacrificed for me anymore. It's enough with what did just happen. Even I got a chance to meet them once again. I don't think that I can forgive my own self." After hearing that from Hikari, He gives Hikari takes a detailed look at what did he going to show him.
When Neu enters his room, he takes out his phone and saw a lot of messages. At that time he started thinking "In 1 second, how many people have send a message to me?" He takes a look at it and he saw a message from his old friend. He was so weird because they haven't get in touch for a long time. Maybe it was something important. So he quickly replies to it.
"Hey, why with you? Is there was something important?"
"Actually...."
"Why? You can just tell me about it!"
"I saw just saw you before. It looks like you're having a problem. So I quickly sent you this message to make sure about it."
"Dude, don't do something like this again. By the way, since you live near here. want to meet me?"
"I'm busy for now. Sorry, maybe next time. I gonna end the call since I got something to do. So, bye."
After the call ended, Neu takes a deep breath and release it. He says by himself "That guy sure makes me worried. So, maybe I can make up some research about what we're going to do since both of them maybe didn't know about this.
