Phase 2: Let's Have Some Fun


Timeline: 10-640.Later Part Of Year

Session 7: Mystery at the Academy

Location: PAX
The club meets as the holidays are beginning to look, a single decoration up so far, and the members beginning to wear somewhat more festive outfits to signal the upcoming holidays. The three magical girls are together and hanging out, spending actual time together for once and getting to know one another as Sabrina, Sparkling Justice, and Nicolette chat with one another and compare notes, with Nicolette the go-betweener. They discuss what each other does as magical girls, while Asha also comes to see what the club is also about and takes in the club's sights, learning what all there is to learn about the PAX. While they discuss Meth Gators and tentacles being Magical Girls' nemesis, Shion shows up for food and alcohol for those old enough while Taiga begins the mission, saying she got a request to go down to Geyze for Lumi.

Arriving at Geyze, the team finds snow all over the place with decorations up that are winter based/Celsius and Shiva as well as some other decorations. From there they meet up with Lumi who tells them about their problem in one of the girl's showers and despite briefly setting up stuff to monitor it, they can't see anything going on. It seems the girls are complaining about feeling like someone is watching them and going through their belongings, as well as some stuff being taken like panties, but nothing shows up on the cameras, and Lumi notes they can't keep the cameras up due to the invasion of privacy. So they are hoping the team can find something that Lumi and Sasha are missing with their mages and investigators before the school term ends.

Going to the showers the team investigates and they find nothing out of the ordinary as they begin to look it over, trying to come up with various ideas. The place has poor lighting in some places and it does give off a creepy feel as they look around in it. As they look around the winter weather begins to worsen and the howl of it can be heard as they move about. Kaelan volunteers to shower to try to lure out whatever is causing it while the others look around and wait, noticing how despite the lighting being good in the place, it looks way too shadowy. During the shower, Sparkling Justice feels someone touch her back and Kaelan's panties are taken by the time she gets out. They begin to search the lockers one by one and Sparkling just blasts one, causing a thud to be heard. Going toward the sound of the thud, she bumps into a person and hears them land on the ground, causing her to cry out that they are invisible.

Chasing the person through the school hallways, the team manages to corner them in one of the classrooms eventually. Trying to locate them inside the classroom they eventually manage to use their powers to make him appear and discover he is one of the older students in his 30's and a magi, sobbing for them not to hurt him. Taking him back to Lumi and Sasha, the man pleads forgiveness and promises he won't do anything like it again, while Thena tries to get Lumi to join her harem and she promptly shuts it down. The man is sent off to community service and the team leaves to go back to the club and out of the cold.

Back at the club the team relaxes and enjoys the warmth of it as they talk and sit back. Sabrina and Sparkling talk about Maka things while the others sit around and drink a little and Durt offers drinks to those old enough. Rio hands out Santa hats to those who need them and the team relaxes as the holidays continue to approach.

Session 8: The One About The Holidays

Location: PAX
The club gathers on New Year's Eve to celebrate the coming New Year and to celebrate Christmas by exchanging presents among friends. As they all gather, many dressed in various festive outfits like Santa outfits or hats, or not like Adeline who is already hitting the alcohol despite being 16, they all soon come in. Even Theau shows up with Shion bringing a bundle of gifts from Isis to hand out to everyone and Taiga is quickly on her way to getting blasted from drinking too much as she hosts the club party. Ren and Yuki show up as well in a well treat, and to support their mother, chatting with Kaori who is doinga cosply like Japanese Christmas outfit. While Kitty shows up all nicely dressed up in a cocktail outfit, Hess shows up in her pajamas, probably being the strangest dressed, and one by one others like Moira, Rachael, Valen, and so also appear.

As the party begins, the gift giving begins slowly throughout the evening as the group hangs out with each other and the gifts range from thoughtful to rather lewd. Adeline getting a personal gift from Jaime in the form of a crystal shard of sorts, to Kaori getting one from Ren in the form a sex book, Kitty getting from Ren and Yuki a spirit holder for her 39 Sprites and for Hess a lucky coin and rabbit foot, as well as clothes made by them, and from Taiga a personalized game console for Kaori. However, during all this, Valen has begun to become a happy drunk and is reacting to things and Zegretta acts a little huffy for a bit, still a little snotty these days. When Durt insuates that Kaelan likes Valen, she reacts rather violently and that she doesn't like boys at all that way and gets huffy like Zegretta, making her comfort Kaelan.

While Taiga brings out a giant cake made by Shion for everyone to eat on, nearly tipping into it due to being drunk, Reikana begins to perform songs for the club. As Shion cuts Theau the first slice of cake, Erevis arrives with Xanatos to the club meeting, getting some greetings. During this Moira has Valen passing out on her while talking and when she tells Durt to leave him alone, the man instead just slaps prods him alone, leading to Valen to getting sick and needing to puke from his drinking. Pulling out garbage, or a trash can, who knows, Durt offers it to Valen to throw up in/on. While Kitty takes Taiga off to sober up as well during this in the back room since she can barely walk, Valen opts instead to swallow his puke, making Moira make a remark about losing all interest again.

After a bit, Valen is escorted out and Rachael gives Moira a look and goes to find him, leading to Moira feeling guilty and following him, but the two cannot locate him. But not before Rachael smashes cake in Durt's face as she goes and Shion insists he eats the cake and not waste it; Kaori calling for the Cake Police to arrest him and Thena calling herself the Cake Police. The rest of the group mostly ignores the chaos, as Erevis and Xanatos dance and enjoy themselves to Reikana's singing and the atmosphere going on. After a bit Taiga notes it's time to do a New Year's Eve game and proposes the King's Game, which Kitty quickly vetos and Xanatos notes that no one plays True American anymore, getting stares. Finally Taiga just gives up and tells them to do whatever they like to do.

They finally count down to the New Year and Racheal and Moira return, with Rachael ignoring Durt and claiming he likes to rewrite history. As it hits the New Year, Rachael seems to be doing something that causes her healing powers to be activating under her clothes as she stares out with a look. Erevis and Xanatos share a kiss for the new year and Xanatos notes this group reminds him a little of the old days. As the party slowly begins to end and Bix is left cleaning the club up as 10-641 begins though Shion promises to return to help later.

Session 9: Looking Into the Clones

Location: PAX
As the club opens Kitty brings Taiga something to drink as she looks tired and grump, tapping her pen on the desk. As the two converse, the others begin to pour in slowly and Kitty gets some snacks through a ripple since Shion seems to be taking the day off by sitting on the couch instead of serving everyone. Informing the team that she doesn't have anything on the docket - before cutting off that no they are not going to look into Meth Gators - she opens it up to anyone having anything that needs to be looked into right now. They discuss Hess a bit not being there due to not feeling good and Kitty notes when a Weapon feels bad it must be a while, which makes Chad raise an eyebrow, and Taiga jokes that maybe Kaori got her pregnant, earning a look from her. Shion discusses that her mothers have been acting weird lately but since they are weird by nature it might be nothing and the club dismisses getting involved with family drama from Kellin to Moira who even says not my family drama.

Thena suggests a pirate adventure which Taiga point blank ignores as she keeps jotting notes, stating she has been keeping an ear on the ground and noting she has been hearing things, in regards to Shion's statement, but moves on. Eventually Taiga calls an end to the club since there seems to be nothing and some in the club are tired, then walks out of the room. Kaori and Kitty make plans to go see Hess after doing some shipping, while Zegretta and Kaelan plan to hang out with people who want to do it. Shion heads out to keep an eye on Theau to make sure he doesn't get into any trouble and walks out herself. Kellin asks if these meetings usually go this way, acting like he always attends them, and Jaime notes Taiga seemed a little tired today while Zegretta states she seemed to outright not give a shit. Kaori tells about a weird dream she had where there was a world with burgers trying to eat people and the dream sounds a lot like the events going on over at Geyze lately with the Mirror Universe. And with that she finally steps through the ripple into the market to shop with Kitty.

During all this Taiga goes to her lab and looks up information with her glove, bringing up screens and after determing something, she sets out through the PAX teleporters without telling anyone even though Si tails her part-way. And with that the team exits to go their own way. A few weeks later for the next club meeting, Taiga is not there and since Thena is the next Chair Person, she begins to take control of the meeting. Thena immediately begins to have them go on a pirate adventure - which seems to be really a girl's day out for a shopping trip, though she talks in heavy pirate talk and has Heaven prepared to take them to a Cartel world in her ship. The group reluctantly goes along first but soon they decide that a day off to shop sounds just the thing, especially if they can drag Chad into it.

Hess and Kitty meet them at the ship with Kaori, where Hess immediately points out she is not pregnant, and everyone boards the ship. As they lead into hyperspace to the Cartel Planet, Kitty begins to ask questions about Taiga not being there and no one has heard anything from her not showing up and Thena assumed she simply did not show up due to overwork. While Zegretta does Kaori up with light makeup to bring out her features, and Hess taking pictures of her afterward, Kitty hooks up to Taiga's datapad since Taiga allows her access to her network. There Kitty finds that Taiga went off to investigate something because she was bored and she'll be back in a few weeks as well as a pinging system to where her datapad is located back on Earth - not moving. Studying the notes Taiga left behind, Kitty finds out that she was studying information on clones, V.I, Isis, Sun V.I, Miyuki, and Chad and Aya.

Once they land on the Cartel World, those that want to come along and not go on Thena's pirate adventure use the Suisen Empire teleport network system to go back to Earth to investigate where Taiga was last located and find facility in disuse that was used to clone body parts people need. As they move inside they find the building has taken quite a bit of damage from some sort of battle, perhaps, with metal and stuff all over the place. Kitty ripples them down to the basement where the signal is coming from and they find Taiga skewered in a spiral of metal in the heavily damaged basement, bleeding out and unconscious, her datapad a few feet away. It looks like she has been bleeding out for a long time. Chad uses a medical stim to bring Taiga awake and she barely has any energy to speak and focus on them.

She informs them she was looking into clone stuff when she ran into an old enemy - a multitude of them - the V.I Venerators. Being led by someone that didn't want to reveal their face. It seems some of the clones had survived the anti-virus sweep years ago. Chad has Kitty use her ripple to cut the metal in Taiga andf free her while Jennifer and Sammael arrives on the scene and Adeline worries about running into the Venerators since one tried to take over her body long ago. At that moment something begins to try to bring the building down on them and so they leap through the ripples Hess and Kitty make to escape from the situation. Once outside of the building Chad has Kitty unlock Taiga's datapad, which brings about Mini/Chibi Taiga, the datapad's guardian to the forefront.

While they are doing this Jaime brings out the buried Venerator and he launches himself at Jaime while Si leaps out and does a flaming kick to him. While Hess does bad luck on him to make it harder for the target to fight, Kitty has Mini Taiga send the information to her server and shut down during the fight. While Michiru draws aggro and it attacks her by throwing stuff, it is thrown back and rippled, sparking from the combined attacks soon. The machine soon begins to graft metal and machines onto it's body to become bigger and stronger and Hess manages one more bad luck, giving Jaime enough time to burn it with a hyperspace attack in her Gnome combine form and reveal the core but it decombines them. At that moment, Si, Michiru, and Kaori all fire their attacks into the core and blow it up.

After the fight Kitty rubs the datapad like a cat, making Mini Taiga purr like a cat at her; when she asks to transfer the documents to him as well, she complies and sends it over to him, but he blocks it out so she can't send herself, making her huff. Back at the club, Mini Taiga sits and messes with Kitty's sprites and plays with them, while the team goes over what they learned and what might have drove Taiga there in the first plus. They discuss Theau and if he might have ties to that place or not, but in the end it will be up to Isis to look into it.

Session 10: The Ancient's Gift (Tie In)

Location: Cheryl's Mansion
Cheryl's place is filled to the brim with food that is not made by Shion, much to her huffiness, and Lemon seems ot be helping out, going back to some of her old ways a little, while Kaori eyes all the food impatiently, wanting to eat it all. While Taiga gives her the go ahead to dig in, Kitty and Shion talk about how much money she could be making over the catering while Kitty tries to figure out what the occassion is for all the food when Cheryl, wearing an oversized coat compared to last time, and Ren storm into the manor. While Cheryl seems excited as she accuses Taiga about something, Ren seems angry, calling her the b-word, causing her to hide behind Kitty as Ren accuses Taiga of having her boss - Alexander Cran - arrested. As Taiga moves to hide behind Kaori next, everyone looks shocked at the information, Taiga tries to justify her actions while they ask why she did it and admits she had nothing concrete, but they all know he is dirty.

As Taiga notes she knows Cran has one of the Ancient pieces and they can't let a man like him have it, that this is a time to look into his operations for anything dirty to shut him down. While Kitty points out that they need evidence first, not the other way around, Ren continues to be furious while the others, except Chad, seem to be all off-put at how this went about, wondering if Taiga has crossed a line. As Cheryl announces she doesn't trust Cran, Kaori and a few others point out that if Cran really is trying to turn over a new leaf, doing things like this might make him go back to an evil path for certain and Chii seems to have believed that as well. It seems like those who remember his old ways, except Chii, find it hard to believe him, while Reikana, Kaori, and the newer ones, along with Angela, believe he should be given a chance, and not be treated like this and be held in a cell.

As they are debating Sabrina arrives with Nicolette into the middle of this nonsense, the two Makas seemingly not happy with how this "justice" is going either and it looks like Taiga is having less and less allies in it. Kitty takes charge and sends Taiga to talk to Cran in the prison along with Ren and Angela, while she, Kaori, Sabrina, and Nicolette, go back to the PAX's club and prepare all the documents they need to go through, and Cheryl will lead Chad, Kaelan, Reikana, and Zegretta to go to Alexandria Corporations and talk to the Reploids and see if they can find any damning information there to see if Cran has gone back to his old ways. While Nicolette and Sabrina are caught up on what is going on, everyone moves their own ways to get started with a 48 hour time limit.

Location: Alexendria Corporation - Reploid Base
Kaelan greets the scowling Blue and Anne (who used to be what's his name), at the gates of the base as Kaelan asks after Alouette. After some struggle with Blue, they begin to search the place beginning with Cran's office, so they head up as they are followed by the two Reploids but along the way they spot someone scaling the building, so Blue heads off to deal with the intruder. While Kaelan takes pictures with various Reploids, the others begin to search for clues in the office while Cheryl knocks over a mini statue of Ariel in the corner. After some searching Reikana finds a safe behind a painting while Blue is seen falling outside the window and grabbing onto the panel, mumbling about bad luck. Cheryl uses a trace amount of her reality powers to crack the safe open to run the various combinations odds; inside they find paperwork on the Reploids, receipts, military contracts regarding them. They hope there is something in them as they all return back to the club.

Location: PAX - The Club
As Sabrina paces in the club she asks about Cran, trying to learn if he was a bad man or what while Thena complains she is bored, having arrived late to the meeting. Nicolette tries to learn more about how a military offical can arrest someone and Shion explains that Taiga turned Cran over to the police using her military position while Celeste notes she doesn't see the problem. Cheryl arrives with the paperwork and they all begin to go through it, especially Kitty, and Cheryl tells them that Cran is working with the military to start a Reploid military project and using that to up in power in the military once again, hoping to restore his old status again. Kaelan shows off Alouette, who she brought along - or nabbed - along with Anyata while they question if this is really a serious charge, or even what Taiga booked him on.

Taiga's group shows up next with Taiga chiding Angela, asking her what was up with letting Cran look at all the Ancient pieces if he turned over his own, while Ren remained pissed off. Taiga fills the group in on what they learned and Angela's deal, making some of the group wince at the idea, and they begin to brainstorm on what to do next. Kitty hands the file over to Taiga with a thawk and the group debates on the merit of evil, and Kaelan seems angry at people assuming evil like with the Dark Ones. Taiga looks ready to cut him loose, especially with people being annoyed at him, and is about to make the call, despite Chad saying they should make him sweat it out, when Cheryl announces she might have found something; having been scanning the base when she was at it earlier, they finally anaylized a hidden room in the base, stopping Taiga in time before the call, causing her to pick up Kitty excitedly and spin her.

Location: Back to Alexanderia Corporations - Reploid Base
Blue scowls at them as they return, and mutters about them bothering her and this female intruder. When asked for more information, Blue notes this intruder kept making her fall somehow with bad luck powers and Taiga wonders if it's Hess' nemesis, Weapon XIII, which leads them to talk about Weapons some for those who do not know about Venerator and Cran, before they all teleport to the hidden room by linking heads, making Nicolette wish they had Sylph. They find an underground lab made to be slept in and made to be comfortable; it seems to have notes on everyone in it and various chambers with experiments and computer terminals. Chibi Taiga and Id begin to work to download information when a lockdown occurs when Chad messes with a datapad, starting a 20 second countdown.

As Id and Chibi Taiga work, they all begin to try to guess the password to unlock the lab, but as the two computer A.I's unlock it at the same time, Chad guesses the password at the exact moment: Family. They find more of the numbered paintings on the walls down here as they look around and begin to download stuff, and Chad talks about Weapons, claiming the man who donated his DNA for the Weapons died long ago. Though the Weapon Project was begun by Cran and Venerator, so both know how to make original Weapons like Weapons I-X. Chibi Taiga begins to through the files and reads: he was looking into the Reploids and the original Dragoons, since they have some flaws. He was also looking into making up with someone called Ariel, but most of all was also worried about Cheryl, since she did something and apparently had no memory of it. But above all he was researching a counter to the Dragoon Virus due to the Shapeshifter stealing it from the Cartel. And finally Cran has been engaging in illegal activites to fund his operations and to keep them off the radar. The piece is supposedly in a safe so they go to check it out while they argue the merits of making dummy corporations and funneling money for good causes, if that is illegal, and what not. They grab the safe and head out back to the PAX.

Location: PAX - The Club Again
The group sits around going over everything they have found, which isn't a lot. Taiga notes she will go into his dummy Corporations but that also not all of them are "clean" either, but if he's really doing them for a good cause to make money for good experiments, then going after him would be wrong. Ren chides Taiga and says she needs to release Cran immediately and Angela notes she will be keeping her promise about the pieces; Cheryl notes she will always find it hard to trust Cran, but she is not against change either. Kitty's sprites open the safe in the meantime and inside they find a note instead of the piece: Bad luck for you - XIII; along with the note is a device that looks like a gun called the D-Gun. It has strange settings labeled D-1 (previous), D-2 (current), D-3 (enhanced) on it. While Sabrina notes she and Nicolette need to show XIII justice for stealing the piece, Chibi Taiga scans the files and learns the D-Gun is called the Dragoon Gun and it is a prototype that needs more testing.

At that moment Alexander Cran steps into the club after having been freed by Taiga due to her calling it in and Ren runs to his side. Due to his unshaven and wrinkled appearance the others give Taiga more of a look and go down hard on her, despite her having been apologizing the entire time. Cran notes he is there to study the pieces but learns it has been taken and after retrieving the D-Gun, and promising to work with Angela in the future, he leaves after indicating Taiga might have set this all up to steal the piece. Due to everyone piling on her, Taiga leaves and lets Ren handle the rest of the meeting as they continue to talk about her; Kitty chases after Taiga and the two talk, with Kitty rubbing her back and offering ice cream before Taiga sets out to track XIII. The rest of the group adjourns the meeting and decide to call it a day after everything.

Session 11: Reality Is What You Make It

Location: PAX
Kaori is dreaming in a place that looks like Centerpoint when Wind appears behind her, telling her is is almost time and that she needs to keep practicing. It appears that Wind has been teaching her how to use her reality powers and helping her to restore her lost powers since bringing the Mirror Universe back over to the Prime Universe. And he warns they are coming for her when Kaori wakes up inside Taiga's club, surrounded by food with a dejected Taiga ever since the events of Fumoffu Session 10. As Angela argues about the gators again with Moira, Ren suggests that maybe Kaori is sleeping too much and Kaori wonders if it's due to her eating too much. As Sabrina freaks out about student council presidents, leaving Kitty huffing since she was one long ago, Kaori receives a strange datapad message that reads: Ka#$oi. Da#$nr. Mot#$r. While Ren thinks it is spam, leading Celeste to wondering what spam is, Kaori thinks it means dinner and mothra.

Kitty A.I exits Kitty's AI, created by Taiga A.I to be a companion, offers to take a look at the message for Kaori - leading Kitty baffled at what is going on with her datapad. The message fries Kitty A.I as she tries to read the message and tells them it says: Kaori. Danger. Mother. She also informs them that the message came from no message on the holonet and they wonder if it means her mother is in danger or it came from her mother's. As they discuss Kaori's mother situation, Kaori mentions that she doesn't have a mother in the conventional sense, just Lady Kasha and Lady Miyuki, as well as Centerpoint itself. She tries to contact them and is unable to do so, as well as Ren, so they decide to go to the Nue Household in person.

Location: Earth
They arrive before the mansion and after a bit they approach the doorway where Isis snatches Kaori up in a hug before taking them inside the manison. Along the way the team is stalked by shadows and eyes following them until they meet Miyuki where they realize dozens of kitsune kits had been stalking them. They learn that one of the youngest chewed through a cord and it seems there is no problems here, outside Miyuki breeding an army, but when the two touch each other as Kaori talks about her dreams there is a glowing between them as Kaori activites some of Miyuki's innate reality powers left in her. Sparkling thinks maybe the dream is a prophecy as the house's internal defenses go off and Cobalt ships land to attack, leading to the manor's defenses rising up to protect it.

Adeline notes that maybe they should find a way out of there as not to hurt the children, a surprising concern from her for fox kits, if they are after Kaori. Kaori is guided by the voice of Wind to use her reality powers and she makes a pathway to the Crystal Pathways so they can all escape, leaving Miyuki and Isis to defend the house along with Kitty. Taiga ushers the team through and the pathways vanishes behind them even as Miyuki goes out and begins to beat the crap out of the Cobalt officers. Back on the PAX, Thena, Charlotte, Kaelan, Jaime, and Angela have found themselves abandoned at the club and left behind by everyone.

They follow the message left behind by Sabrina incase Nicolette showed up later, head down to Earth to see if they can find everyone and come across Miyuki battling the Cobalts. Even though she managed to take out the majority of them, she is finally caught and they rush in and aid her, rescuing her and taking out the remaining ones. They ponder where they could have gone after the group regroups and Kaelan thinks they went to the Centerpoint place, even though Isis points out it recombined with Yggdrasil. Miyuki decides the best option is to use her powers and try to reach where Kaori is located, using this connection to manage it.

Location: Crystal Pathways
Kaori's group finds themselves back in the Crystal Pathways, though now it seems dimly lit and barely functional. As they go along Taiga shows Kaori pictures of dark haired men trying to see if she can learn she saw in her dreams while Sparkling notes this place seems like an anime until they come across Miyuki's group. While Miyuki seems exhausted, leaning on Isis for spport, the others seem to have made the trip unscathed. Eventually Taiga gets a hit by showing Wind's face to Kaori and the team informs the group about who he was once. They eventually reach the center of a room where the find the Avatar Airym/Miyuki, nicknamed Cennie, and see that the systems have 35% power, much like how much reality power Kaori has managed to restore.

As Kaori begins to reboot the Avatar's programs, it is clear is running on low power but it talks with the group and converses with Kaori, pleased to see her. While they talk Miyuki has Hess pop out of her tail, carrying her around it seems. Adeline begins to wonder if this place is really a reflection of Kaori's heart as Hess and Kaori are reunited and she takes a look at the pathways. As Miyuki and Avatar Cennie converse about Kaori and that she is a good girl, Wind appears behind Kaori - but if he is the original deal, or a C'en copy, that is left to be seen. Wind informs them that Kaori needs to keep getting stronger because the Serpents are using pawns to try to get at Kaori to use her power and that there might even be traitors within the group. After that he touches Hess and after a painful jolt, makes her bad luck stronger.

Avatar Cennie returns them to the real world and the group appears in Taiga's club room; ice cream is all over the place, due to the fact it was mentioned last. It almost appears as if nothing has changed since they last appeared, except for the fact Kitty greets them. Taiga decides to assign a body guard to protect Kaori and will have Hess do it when that is no viable.

 

Timeline: 10-641.4.17

Session 12: Cosplayer Panic!

Location: PAX
Ren and Charlotte decide to hold a cosplaying event involving mechs/gundams that are planet/earth based and not space based and everyone has a good time, even though some like Nicolette are confused at the concept and Kitty and Taiga try to refuse to wear outfits. Eventually though Taiga decides that they should do a mission and that they can use this cosplaying thing to their advantage, either wearing the outfits on the mission or wear school uniforms, due to a high school that has been having people going missing or acting strange, as if they are being programmed. As they arrive at the school, they decide to split up as not to stand out, so Kitty, Taiga, and Celeste check out the inside of the school with Noire, while Shion, Jaime, and Ceilidh try out the shooting range and test their skills there, and the others walk around and try to eavesdrop or ask students for information.

Ren eats some of the food, though Charlotte's Dark One senses, and while Hess gets Kaori some food as well, only Ren strangely is affected by the good and goes to sleep; when a student council member tries to take Ren to the infirmary, the group firmly runs him off. Noire, Kitty, and Taiga question a crying girl in the bathroom while Celeste listens outside the door and they learn about the problems in the school and are directed to the Principal's office to search there after Noire calms the girl down enough to get information out of her. Jaime, Shion, and Ceilidh are scouted out and led to an annex building to be questioned by a teacher while a mascort, a bear/mouse that looks like the FMP Fumoffu mascot walks around scouting the area and acting all cutey spies on them going there. While Taiga, Hess, Noire, and Celeste ripple into the Principal's office to check it out and find documents that show the master mind of the school plans to try to use the kids as next generation test subjects with Weapon DNA and hidden mind slaves, with plans to frame people like Cederaton if caught, Jaime, Shion, and Ceilidah are captured to be brainwashed.

The mascot gets the others after Ren recovers and they break into the building to help free them as Nicolette, Thena, who has been sneaking around, Hess, Kaori, Charlotte, and so on take down the students and teacher and a giant mech crashes the party. As Tagia and company wrap up their file hunding and panic breaks out outside, they hurry out and the team works together to take down the old model mech as the mascot deals with the bad students by shooting them in the butt with a toy gun. After they save the day, the group resumes their cosplay event, putting the information on the back bunner for now.
