*MEANWHILE*
*LOCKER ROOM - GOLDEN CALF HEADQUARTERS - AKIHABARA - CHIYODA - TOKYO*
*P.O.V SWITCH - MIKOTO*
Kami-P is pissed off. Like he drank a premium bottle of '2021 bottled rage'.
He's not the only one who wants to kick back at those Nijigasaki girls and their genderbend leader.
That Kanata Konoe may look docile. But deep down, she's a demon! Someone needs to put a muzzle on that mouth of hers before she kills someone!
Before she kills me!
HITOMI: "She took me down... Nobody's ever landed a blow on me. Karin Asaka, Lanzhu Zhong... Finally, the challenge I've been waiting for.
I'll break their faces with my fists, I'll stand proud over their broken bodies to show how strong I am!
I'm strong, I'm not weak! I can't lose to them! The next time I see them I'll-"
CHIZUKO: "Now, now, Jin. There's no need to be so angry. You know how much I love you."
HITOMI: "Not now!"
CHIZUKO: "Ooh, did you cut your hair? It's really pretty, I love it! You know, behind closed doors we can drop our idol personas and be ourselves!"
HITOMI: "The hell are you talking about?"
CHIZUKO: "I'm talking about idols of course. Do you really believe that whole 'dating is prohibited' stuff?
They've all got someone special behind the scenes, usually it's their producer or another unit member."
HITOMI: "Good freaking grief..."
CHIZUKO: "I know how much you must hate Karin Asaka and Lanzhu Zhong for what they did to us.
Sure you went too far, but I never wanted to see them hurt you.
But you've gotta admit that time we spent together locked up in that closet was special!"
HITOMI: "Seven hours in hell."
CHIZUKO: *Chuckle* "You're so cute!"
HITOMI: "Shut up."
CHIZUKO: "I know Karin Asaka personally, you can just leave her to me."
HITOMI: "Like hell I'm going to give up a worthy opponent!"
CHIZUKO: "She caught you by surprise. It's Lanzhu Zhong who landed a kick on you."
HITOMI: "True... I've heard all about how strong and confident she is. It'll only make it more satisfying when I conquer her."
CHIZUKO: "I'll take Karin, you take Lanzhu. Deal?"
HITOMI: "Suit yourself."
CHIZUKO: "Let's close this deal with a big hug! Bring it in!"
HITOMI: "G-Get back you demon!"
*SLAP*
These two!
MIKOTO: "Stop fooling around! You both let yourselves get locked away!"
HITOMI: "At least I didn't run away."
MIKOTO: "Kanata Konoe is a demon! I had my reasons!"
HITOMI: "Ya know what I do with demons? I beat them with a stick. Next time she comes near, you give her one of these!"
MIKOTO: "No! That's illegal! Wh-Where did you even get that?!"
CHIZUKO: "Then get back at her some other way. Her weakness is her sister, right? You could totally use that!"
MIKOTO: "ARE YOU KIDDING? She'd kill me!"
HITOMI: "Get a grip. Are you gonna be a victim forever or are you going to strike back at your opponents?"
MIKOTO: "Easy for you to say with your black belt and military family! I'm 147cm! If I hit someone they'd shrug it off! If someone landed a blow on my face, do you know what would happen?"
HITOMI: "You get to hit them back?"
MIKOTO: "NO! My skull would shatter! I'd get a disgusting bottle of '2021 bottled death'!"
CHIZUKO: "You worry too much, you should take up a hobby."
MIKOTO: "I don't have time for hobbies! Not when I'm stopping you from randomly hugging people and Boss from randomly hitting people!"
HITOMI: "I've always got to challenge the strength of others. What reigns supreme in this world...is power."
CHIZUKO: "And love!"
HITOMI: "SHUT UP!"
CHIZUKO: "Come here my love!"
HITOMI: "Oh shit, NOT AGAIN!"
CHIZUKO: "Embrace me!"
HITOMI: "I won't take this any longer! You leave me no choice, we settle this today!
I'll take you down... WITH MY OWN JUSTICE!!!"
*SLAP*
These two are going to be the death of me. We're supposed to be protecting Liella! and Katsuo!
Though Mr. Pretty Prince Boy said he didn't need protecting, and that he's got some business to take care of somewhere.

*MEANWHILE*
*DARK ALLEY - SOMEWHERE IN ODAIBA - TOKYO*
RYU: "Yeah, I saw what Suzuki did at Diver City."
???: "Like a moth to the flame he attacked, but he got burned. Soon, we'll have everything we've ever wanted."
RYU: "You've got this whole plan written up with your Producer, right?"
???: "Yes, you idiot. Even Diver City was planned. In the end he gave Liella! a ticket to the Main Stage.
Soon, he'll lose his mind. I know his weakness."
RYU: "No shit, it's those bitches."
???: "Once his weakness is exploited, he'll finally give in. Which will open the path for me to finally compete on the Main Stage."
RYU: "Heh, no doubt about it, Boss."
???: "Soon, I'll need you to take care of him. Can I rely on you?"
RYU: "Me and the gang wanna kick his ass."
???: "Excellent. As per our agreement, I'll get you what you want. Their contracts will be yours. What you do with those girls is up to you, I don't care. Just so long as I get my Main Stage Moment."
