[Magical Girl Mimi]

OOC: Nope, he hasn't; presumably, he would've been rescued with the others. I left the fates of everyone in the school when the Hunters attacked last chapter enigmatic in case anyone wished to return. =D

-==IC: Kaze==-

Kaze looked to the right quickly, just to make sure they weren't being followed, and then looked forward again, and then blinked. He quickly shook his head, and looked to the right again, as he actually noticed Sonia again this time, and frowned.
"What do you want?" Kaze asked, curiously, as Sonia blinked, and frowned.
"What do I want? What do you mean; you're the one suddenly acting as if I'm going to kill you now..." Sonia said, as she understood why, but; she guessed they hadn't heard the memo. Kaze frowned, and sighed.
"... Well, if you're here to attack us, then I'll fight." Kaze said, as Sonia stepped back, a frown on her face.
"No, wait, I-" Sonia started to say, barely having time to draw her sword, before Kaze attacked, slicing her right arm slightly, as Kaze frowned.
"Where's the overconfidence you had before? Gone with my willingness to fight?" Kaze asked, as he stepped back, and Sonia winced, as she began to heal her wound with Ki, causing Kaze to pause.
"Wait; what? You're a Guardian; you should be able to heal without Ki..." Kaze said, as he put his sword away, which caused Sonia to sigh.
"That's what I was trying to say... I'm not a Guardian anymore... I have my element still, because that was my element, but I'm not a Guardian... I'm just me." Sonia said, which caused Kaze to look shocked, but then nodded, as he turned around.
"Well then... What are we waiting for? Back to Terakou." Kaze said with a smile, as he finally noticed what he was missing earlier... Her eyes were normal once more; unlike how they were empty-looking back at the Training Camp.

-==IC: Neo==-

"I think it'll work well." Neo said with a smirk, as he nodded.
"Send word to Naikage when everything is ready. You should know when that is." Neo stated, as he leaned back in his chair, awaiting his imminent victory...

OOC: Chapter 7 - A Surprise Enemy - End.

Chapter 8 - Shattered Memories, starts now. =)

Kaze raised an eyebrow, as he reached the location where the school was; now there was a relatively futuristic-looking building, that looked more like a command centre should. Kazuki walked out, and smiled, though he seemed slightly surprised to see Kaze.
"I knew I saw you earlier." Kazuki stated, referring to when he was giving the speech in the caravan.
"It was that obvious, huh?" Kaze asked, with a chuckle, as he scratched the back of his head.
"I like what you've done with the place." Kaze said, referring to the new building, as he began to walk inside, and then looked around, pretty impressed. Kazuki nodded, as a relatively young man, who looked to be around 22 years old, stood near the entrance.
"Also; while you all were at the Training Camp, we got a new recruit. He's more used to hand-to-hand fighting, due to years of fighting on the streets before discovering his powers, but he should do well for teaching you some new techniques." Kazuki explained, as the man nodded.
"My name is Shinji. Hopefully you'll all accept me, despite being new to this region." Shinji said with a disarmingly charming smile, as Kaze frowned slightly, not sure about the new guy, but nodded.
"Nice to meet you. Right now, I think I'm going to explore this place, see what's been added." Kaze said, as he noticed a lot of the structure was similar; but looked streamlined in a way. Kali and Sonia followed, along with Kai, and Kai and Shinji exchanged suspicious looks. However, Shinji then turned around and pulled out his phone as he walked away, a picture being displayed on the screen as he did so. Shinji then deleted that picture quickly, as smirked to himself, as he walked down the halls.
