[start of the return to glockgate arc]
[masahiro paces around the palace]
Masahiro: so, does anyone have any ideas?.
Okuda: Yeah, how about we go out there and kill them.
Masahiro: Too many.
Okuda: [sigh] then what do you have?.
Masahiro: Well, we find a place to gather weapons then attack the demons while there in a blank state.
[okuda looks at masahiro surprised]
Okuda: That's a good idea.
[masahiro smiles]
Masahiro: thanks.
Masahiro: Now, let's exterminate the demons of this city.
[okuda smile]
Okuda: ok.
[Masahiro and okuda grab there swords and rush out of the palace]
Yonome: Wait, what about me?.
[yonome drops her head down and starts to tear up]
Yonome: Am I that worthless to this team?.
Yonome: Why am I still here? I'm just dead weight.
[yonome picks her head back up]
Yonome: You know what, I'm tired of being useless.
[yonome heads upstairs to the palace bathroom]
Yonome: I'll protect them like how they protect me, this isn't one sided.
[yonome notices a knife on the floor]
Yonome: I'll need this.
[yonome enters the palace bathroom and locks the door]
Yonome: no more being useless.
[yonome pulls the left sleeve off her dress]
Yonome: no more being weak.
[yonome pulls the right sleeve off her dress]
Yonome: And last for all, no more feeling bad for myself and staying idle.
[yonome takes the knife and cuts her hair]
Yonome: Now, I'm gonna go out there and protect him like how he protects me.
[yonome unlocks the palace bathroom]
Yonome: [sigh] I hope he still will like me after this.
Yonome: [tch] what am I talking about of course he will.
[yonome leaves the palace bathroom and sees a passage written on the wall]
[yonome looks at the passage confused]
Yonome: was that there before?.
[yonome takes a closer look at the passage]
Yonome: "the user that finds this passage will be reborn with an incredible amount of strength and will protect all with the power of the black cross, the only forbidden magic still legal in the world".
[black markings appear on yonomes left arm]
Yonome: the black cross, huh.
[yonomes left arm begins to burn]
Yonome: [ugh] why does my arm feel like this? It burns, it's like it's on fire.
[yonomes arm engulfs in black flames]
Yonome: What is this?.
Yonome: Why is my arm on fire?.
Yonome: This can't happen.
[yonome rushes out of the palace and her arm begins to shoot black flames]
[masahiro and okuda turn around and see the black flames]
Okuda: what is that?.
Masahiro: I'm not sure, let's go check it out.
Okuda: ok.
[masahiro and okuda rush over to the entrance of the palace and they see the ground covered with black flames]
Masahiro: yonome!!!.
Okuda: yonome!!!! ,Are you ok?!!!!.
[yonome stops hiding behind one of the pillars]
Masahiro: ok good your safe.
[masahiro sees the black markings up yonomes arm]
Masahiro: So was that you?.
[yonome runs down the stairs into masahiros arms]
Yonome: What is this?.
[yonome starts crying]
Masahiro: Hey, it's ok.
Yonome: There's something weird going on with my arm and it's scaring me.
Masahiro: I'll figure out what it is, don't worry.
Yonome: It really does scare me. Will it always be like this?.
Masahiro: I'm not sure.
[masahiro plays with yonomes hair]
Masahiro: I like what you did with your hair.
Yonome: really?.
Masahiro: Of course I do.
Okuda: hey why don't we get inside where it's safe.
Masahiro: right.
[masahiro,okuda and yonome enter the palace]
Okuda: So were you shooting those flames?.
Yonome: yes.
Okuda: So do you have some kind of power now?.
Yonome: I'm not sure.

Masahiro: So what happened?.
Yonome: I'm not really sure.
Okuda: there had to have been something.
Masahiro: Alright, that's enough questions, let's try and figure out what this is.
