The sun rose above the horizon, showing off its golden ray. The view of the golden sun ray could be seen shining on the roof of the sentinel's battle arena and walls of every building which faced the east.
Nobara stretched her arms upward and stretched her body to the left and to the right, in her bedroom at the sentinel's penthouse. Yuu was still napping on the bed, curling like a cat on Nobara's satin pillow. She watched the sleeping black creature then she took a huge metal bowl and a metal spoon from the small kitchen in her room. She leant them closer to Yuu's ear then banged them harder like a gong. Yuu jumped off from the bed and quivered as the side effect of the loud bang.
He crawled in every direction like a drunk dog with his eyes spinning with spiral shapes. Nobara blithely lifted him and twirled around thrice, and put him on the floor. He sat with his head spinning followed by little stars hovering above his head.

"Konnichiwa, minna-samaaaaa!!!" The emcee of yesterday shouted while facing the ceiling like a singer on his small stage.
The crowds on the grandstand cheered like a choir in church. Their tiny state made them look like undulating waves as they waved their hands and anything in their hands including props to the air. The choir proceeded like a whisper blew through the wind.
Nozomu and Ryuuchiro entered the stadium luxury box and sat on the dark maroon leather sofa. Ryuuchiro took two wine glasses from a small round wooden table abreast of the sofa and poured a little bit of champagne into it. He lent one of them to Nozomu then they hit the glasses together as a cheer.
"For Nobara," Ryuuchiro lifted his wine glass.
"For my imouto-chan," Nozomu sneered.
Right on the gate with striped white pillars, a figure of a woman with red hair, wearing a black leather bra with golden laces wrapped around her neck matched with black fitted leather skirt, rambled out from it with a sinister smile curling her lips downward. She mobiled ahead while waving her arms to the air, listening to the crowds cheering and shouting out for her. Some threw roses and flowers onto the brick platform.
"Here we are again, with Dr Tachibana Nobara has entered the battlefield with confidence! She swaggers and sashays like a supermodel, is this a gesture or perhaps a sign for a winner? Will she be able to win and overthrow her opponent from the battlefield?"
The emcee averted his eyes away from Nobara and set his eyes to a new bull's-eye who appeared from the entrance gate on the opposite side from Nobara. The man's violet hair caught the public's attention, he paced on the bricked aisle and headed to the enormous concrete heptagon with Nobara standing stiffly near an aisle on the opposite side.
"Itta, itta!!" The emcee exclaimed in Japanese with thrills and intense awe while pointing his index finger to the man who walked on the aisle with a straight face.
"Adalbert Hohenstaufen has entered the battle arena!! Eeeeeehhhhhhhh, Bari Bari mashitaaaaaa!!!! I'm on fireeeee!!!!" The emcee continued. "The two sentinels for the first Sentinel Game are now here, cheering our morning!! A battle between the Ammunition Sentinel and the Sky Sentinel, how epic the battle will be!! The game that we are awaiting every 4 years, the game that will lock us with awe! Who will win the first battle?"
The sound of the choir of the crowds got so loud that it might hurt your ears. Adelbert stopped and stood stiffly on the heptagon, facing Nobara 50 metres away from his current position. He averted his eyes to his left and set his eyes on the stadium luxury box, he watched a blonde woman, his beautiful wife who was watching him while clasping her hands. Nobara turned her head to the left and locked her eyes on the stadium luxury box, staring at Nozomu, Ryuuchiro and an old couple with matching red and blue kimono; her parents. She smiled but refused to shed some tears.
Nobara and Adalbert stood still and exchanged glances like dogs snarling at each other before they began to bite and attack each other. She bit her thumb till it bled then Tsukiyama appeared like a black blaze from her feet.
Benditto, with his shirt unbuttoned and his loosely trousers unzipped, was sitting on a red baroque medieval while swirling the red wine and crossed his legs above each other, stroking the head of a naked woman who rested her head on his lap; she was one of the servant who in charged of cleaning the sentinel. Her uniforms were messily scattered on the floor. He glared upon the flat television screen and scrutinized Nobara's close face. He took a sip of the red wine while setting his eyes on the screen with Nobara in it.
Victoria watched the flat television in her room while sitting on the red couch with her little pixie combing her hair. The female designer who sat on the floor painted the nail of her toes with pastel rosy-pink paint, the second designer massaged her shoulder and the third designer. Hayabusa in his room cheered for Nobara and jumped around and even blew the party horn together with his three female designers as if they were having a party.
Ruthbert sipped tea from a porcelain cup while paying all of his attention to the television in his room. His toxic blob assistant rested on his lap like a cat. Era watched the television with inquisitiveness and nervousness. She was waiting for the battle to begin.
The emcee stroked his head and inhaled deeply then exhaled as if he was breathing out fire. The golden crosier from the Sentinel's parade began to light and burn with royal blue flame. The emcee fixed his sunglasses on his nose bridge then smirked.
"Let the game begin!!" He screamed then followed by the loud choir of the crowd.
Even after the announcement was made, neither Nobara nor Adalbert started to move even an inch. They stiffly glared at each other and sweat trickled on each face. Nobara breathed out slowly and took her long gun from her back. She straightened her body and smirked.
"Hohenstaufen-dono, what will happen if you enter the grassy battlefield recklessly?" Nobara asked.
"There might be some mines and if you accidentally step on it, you'll explode," Adalbert replied.
"Indeed!" Nobara sneered and glared with her predator-like eyes.
Adalbert widened his eyes then briskly set his eyes on his feet. He jumped off high up to the air as he saw a mine with a timer underneath his feet. It exploded after the timer reached '0' second and beeped repetitively before it exploded. He floated in the air then he blew fog from his mouth that everything immediately turned foggy. The crowd were intrigued and gasped as the battle arena was veiled with thick grey foggy clouds. The clouds rubbed with each other, inducing lightning as the result of the spark from the friction. They glowed, rumbled and roared as the cloud sparked.
Nobara glared through the fog and stood still. She summoned Tsukiyama before he could turn himself into flame and swallowed her M134 gun. She aimed the barrel upward then fired repetitively. Fireworks like bullets accelerated upward, creating a huge hole in the cloud. The cloud emerged to the side in a second, forming a huge empty circle. Adalbert hovered high up above the ground while staring at her. A black smoke appeared on the tip of his index finger as he raised his hand upward. The black smoke enlarged into a huge blackhole and soon a tip of a white aeroplane came out from the middle of the blackhole.
The white pointed tip grew into a supersonic spacecraft which then hastily charged to her like a nuclear bomb falling from the sky. She launched 22 fire bullets to the spacecraft before it could hit her. The spacecraft abruptly hit the barrel of her gun and thus exploded, creating a huge explosion with thick black and orange glowing blaze smoke spreaded to every space. The crowds gasped at the thought of her death but their interpretation was misleading. Seven guns from each corner of the heptagon fired continuous and vile bullets to Adalbert as he dodged the bullets and created more dark grey clouds.
26 golden Chinese dragon cannons appeared in a scattering manner high above the ground, surrounding him callously. His escape routes were blocked and he charged to Nobara as the cannons fired vigorous balls of glittering fire at him. 7 classic aircrafts flew out from the blackhole above like a swirl of harlots charging out of their beehive. They buzzed and fed each cannon with their ice and snow bullets. The glowing dragon cannons slowly engulfed by the thin sheet of snow and crystal of ice crystallised the body. The cannons fell and hit the brick ground heavily.
