The death of Forest Straw left everyone shocked, his "Najing Wars" proved to be effective against the Black Dragons Clan. But even he cannot defeat the Black Dragons Clan entirely and died.
In a moment's notice to revert any chance for revenge on the Black Dragons Clan, the heads of each family of the Clan put a spell on Forest Straw to make him forget about the future past. In this loop, he is now a normal teenager with a normal life, unaffected by any activities of the Dragons.
Though there are dangers of retaliation by the Black Dragon Clan. All will be in the background, running in secret, and only convinced in secrecy.
Some things cannot be protected for long. The secret to his life is about to meet its fate once again upon the trigger of an innocent love living once again. Just that simple moment from yesterdays affection will leave a trail of bread crumbs into his life once more.
Born out of everyone's mystery is why the best warrior from the past is left not knowing the truth. But there are those that knows, and want to share the secret knowledge of, only in time do they have that ability. Only time will tell when it will be released.
The woman of his dreams now lies a teenager the same age as he is. Knowing the loop too well, she can only cover her lips shut with her palms and say thinking to herself: "does he remember fully?" and "Does he want to reunite?".
There walking into school is Forest Straw, looking at him from the entrance gate with cheery expression in her eyes is Reiko Sagara.
"What seems to be the problem?" - Reiko Sagara
"What problem?" - Forest Straw
In that short conversation, each felt a bliss that seemed forever long in play. A mystifying feeling that they've known each other from the past. But only one of them only truly knows what past that really was.
Reiko Sagara stared at him perplexed with a flush. He seems to have not remembered her. Their past was crucial, but she asks, "does he not know about what really happened in the past?". She asks deeply inside her head.
"Do you not remember anything?" - Reiko Sagara
"That you were very beautiful yesterday?" - Forest Straw
(Pokes punches into him)
(Then Smiles and Chuckles at him)
(Then whispers)
"It seems he forgot about the past." - Reiko Sagara
Dwindling in the wind of the aftermath lies a scar in their relationship. What seems to be a block from the memories of both, but Reiko Ssagara completely unveiled it prior yesterday at their fighting with Hans Jenfield.
This scar prohibits her from disclosing the fact of their past relationship. Making sure that they can only start anew but never repeat that same tradegy that happened once before. She says to herself "To the beautiful, "garou garou han"."
In the past lies an awful memory, upon witnessing successive victories, a pattern was witnessed to be made. That cycle, upon the unveiling by someone else in the Black Dragon Clan, produced a significant counter to his approaches.
Starting from then, he cannot perform well in the field of battle. His cultivation became dwindling, his magic output started to collapse, until only an expert in the advance level allow the ability to kill him.
Unable to protect his family from the onslaught, he said to himself upon approach to the mirror looking at his now old and greyish self: "Hou Hou, san metousan, hou hou hou, andou fallah mallah."
Now in the present, back to when things seem like they can work again. The now healthy and young Forest Straw makes known to his first love that he took an interest at her.
"You were finest back then, I can't seem to make known of it, but upon that day, I saw something in you like I saw something once before" - Forest Straw
"What is it?" - Reiko Sagara
"A recollection I can only visit in my dreams." - Forest Straw
From that point on, Reiko Sagara said to herself that the memories must have been implanted subconsciously. In a moments notice, she was about to blurt out something related to it until fear and a sense of panic struck her in the midst. A gist of wind brought forth around the corner gush in like a hurricane. Told her in mid flight the words "Petri von heimen.".
Knowing well that it is from the secret organization, she decided to let him be for now and be silent. She on the other hand, was stuttered with a very dense and emotional expression of suppressed feelings and denial of her cause.
From this point on, a meeting with the Jenfield Gang was witnessed. All were in awe of Hans Jenfield, walking down the path towards the direction of Forest Straw. Then at the end of their steps lies the showdown that started the life of a hermit.
