Chapter 1: The first meeting

It has been a few months since Aichi and his team, Q4, won the VF Circuit(During the Season 2 of Cardfight! Vanguard). They were so popular that people from around the world and nearby in Japan wanted to learn play Cardfight! Vanguard from Aichi and his team. Team Q4 was happy with the thought of teaching new people how to play Vanguard.

But today was the day when Aichi's Q4 members were to meet at the Card Capital and talk things around. Aichi was still sleeping on his bed until Emi would wake him up.

"Wake up, Aichi!" Emi said to Aichi and Aichi woke up, eyes still sleepy and bit tired.

"Good morning." Aichi said, yawning a bit.

"Jeez Aichi, you are still the same person that I know… Always needed to be woken up." Emi said, slightly frustrated at the fact that her brother tends to sleep long until she wakes him up.

After that Emi went to downstairs for the breakfast. Aichi started by stretching himself and changing clothes. After that he went downstairs as well to have a breakfast. His mother, Shizuka greeted him:

"Good morning Aichi!"

"Morning, mom!" Said Aichi, who was pumped up for today. He will be meeting his Members of Team Q4, Misaki and Kamui once again on the Card Capital. The day couldn't be any better Aichi thought to himself as he ate his breakfast.

"Thank you for the breakfast!" Aichi said and went to put on his shoes as Emi also finished her breakfast and came to put her shoes as well. They were both going to Card Capital today.

"We're leaving!" Aichi and Emi said together to their mother and they went out of the door. Aichi and Emi were so happy today so they even ran together to the Card Capital. Aichi was thinking on his way to Card Capital about the PSY -shop where he did meet the popular Idol Group, Ultra Rare and met Suzugamori Ren as well. Aichi also got some fine cards to use on his deck thanks to the PSY –shop.

Soon after Aichi and Emi arrived to the Card Capital, Kai and Miwa arrived as well from the other end of the road.

"Morning Aichi." Kai and Miwa said together as Aichi was happy when he saw Kai and Miwa coming to Card Capital today as well.

"Hey Kai -kun and Miwa -kun!" Aichi said happily to them and waved as Kai and Miwa got closer to the entrance of Card Capital.

"How have you been Aichi?" Kai asked as Miwa was patting Kai's shoulder.

"Kai has been tempted to fight you today on the Card Capital for so long after you've won the VF Circuit." Miwa said with a smile and Kai was keeping his cool as usual. It was true that Kai wanted to test his strength againts Aichi, whether he was capable to defeat Aichi anymore. To Kai's challenge Aichi nodded in agreement.

After all the talk they decided to go inside the Card Capital. As they stepped in they were greeted by Kamui, Misaki, Morikawa, Izaki and Shin.

"Good morning Aichi onii-san!" Kamui greeted. As he also saw Emi with Aichi, he couldn't almost spell her name, because of the fact that he loved Emi.

"M-M-Miss E-Emi...G-Good morning!" Kamui struggled to say since he was blushing and couldn't keep his emotions together. To this Emi was a bit confused but said hello to Kamui as well. Kamui then almost fainted to the floor when she said his name. Kai asked Aichi if he wanted to start their battle right now or if Aichi had something else to do before starting their match. Aichi said, that he wanted to buy a Booster Pack first and then he would have a match with Kai.

Aichi opened his new Booster Pack and got some solid cards for his Gold Paladin such as: Liberator of the Round Table Alfred, Liberator of Silence Gallatin and Future Liberator Llew.

Aichi was satisfied with his cards that he got from the pack along with other cards that were on the booster pack. After he organized his deck he went to have a match with Kai. They went to the cardfight table and they chose their vanguards. As soon as they chose their vanguards they started their match:

…The match progressed to the point where they both had 5 damage total. Kai tried to finish his turn and dealing the final blow by using Dragonic Kaiser Vermillion's Limit Break, which made him battle all the front row units of Aichi's. Aichi survived Kai's final attack by guarding his vanguard with perfect guard.

It was now Aichi's turn as he stood and drew. He rode Wolf Fang Liberator, Garmore to his Vanguard circle and used Garmore's Limit Break so he could superior call Gold Paladins to fill in his rear-guard places. He superior called Liberator of Royalty, Phallon and Liberator of the Flute, Escrad. He called Little Liberator, Marron from his hand as he filled in all of his units to rear-guard circles. As he struck the final blow to Kai with Garmore after Kai had blocked Aichi's two units attack, Kai was by then defeated by Aichi's Garmore. As he drew the last card from his deck to indicate his damage check he only got Red River Dragoon(No trigger). Kai and Aichi were both happy with the match and they had fun playing the match, although Kai thought on his mind that Aichi had become much more stronger in the vanguard. Kai knew that Aichi's strength has surpassed his own strength.

After the match Kamui said to Aichi that he has surely gotten a lot stronger. Misaki also noticed Aichi's strength. Kamui also told Kai that he's still strong despite losing to Aichi on today's match. Kai took the compliment in a good way and kept his cool as usual.

Shin interrupted the talk and gave a letter that was dedicated to Aichi himself.

"A letter for me…?" Aichi wondered as he took the letter and opened it. The letter was sent from the Ultra Rare member, Kourin. "Kourin sent a letter for me…" Aichi pondered as he was curious for this letter. He read the letter:

From: Kourin Tatsunagi

"Hey Aichi

I was thinking if we could meet at PSY as I would love to talk about few things and share some feelings if possible. I want to confess you something as well. Meet me in the shop today when you're able to come."

As Aichi was reading he didn't actually realize that Miwa was behind him reading the letter.

"Seems like you're being asked to have a date." Miwa smirked as Aichi started to blush a bit. It's true that Aichi as well had feelings Kourin. Miwa still decided to tease Aichi more and made Aichi blush even more.

"W-well I guess that's h-how it seems." Aichi managed to say as he was still blushing from Miwa's teasing earlier. Truth to be told Aichi knew that he wanted to talk with Kourin as well for a long time after the VF Circuit had been held.

"...I think you should enjoy your time with her!" as Miwa smiled to Aichi. Aichi nodded to him but was soon interfered by my my… Morikawa himself!

"Aichi! Don't you dare plan to have a date with my Kourin! She's my love!" Morikawa yelled at Aichi who was now smiling weakly as he knew that Morikawa liked Kourin a lot because of her beauty. It's true that Kourin was beautiful in her Idol work and outside of the Idol work. Izaki and Miwa tried to hold Morikawa in place, but they weren't succesful. Morikawa continued to warn Aichi of the date.

Soon after Kamui arrived and defended Aichi with an aerial kick towards Morikawa. Morikawa fell down from the kick.

"Don't you dare bully Aichi, Lose-umi!" Kamui shouted.

As Morikawa stood and cleaned his clothes a bit:

"It's Morikawa, you brat!" Morikawa yelled back.

"Lose-umi!"

"Morikawa!

The two kept arguing until Misaki slammed her book to the table and gave a glance.

"If you two won't stop I will throw you out of the Card Capital!" Misaki shouted and gave a really cold glance to Kamui and Morikawa.

They both got scared and stopped the fight. After that Aichi decided to go visit PSY –shop and meet Kourin whom he got the letter from. Aichi wanted to share his feelings as well to Kourin but he wasn't sure if he was able to do it yet. Kourin was also having the same problem as Aichi. She was thinking if she could confess her feelings to Aichi or not.

"I will be going now." Aichi said as he stepped out of the Card Capital.

"I am not sure if I can confess to her my feelings..." Aichi thought as he was now on his way to PSY -shop.
