Ch.1 The girl with the strange name

It was night time when Shido Itsuka was having a nightmare, one that he only recently began having for the last three nights. The dream took place at DEM headquarters with Shidou watching in horror as a spirit who he doesn't recognize floating through a massive hole in the roof shooting blasts of energy into the distance creating explosions which made the outside resemble a post apocalyptic wasteland. Shido can only scream at her to stop, but what truly disturbed him was the spirit looking at him with a warm and gentle smile and the only thing he can hear is.

"All for you…."

From the spirits mouth as he cannot hear the rest of her words. The dream ends about there every night; only today he woke up due someone elses voice.

"Shido Shido get up!"

Shido suddenly wakes up and sees Tohka standing above him with an excited look on her face.

"What what's going on!"

Normally he wouldn't wake up in such a way, but the dream has him feeling on edge.

"There's something on TV you need to see, come on hurry!"

Shido humors Tohka and goes into the living still in his pajamas to see what she is so excited about. On the TV was an advertisement for a foreign carnival coming to town, but what Tohka was actually excited about were the confections that were being displayed in the background. Fancy foods on sale for cheap, colorful desserts of all colors, and of course the surplus of soy flour bread that they were displaying which made Shidou suspicious, and that's when he notices Kotori missing from the apartment. As soon as he noticed Kotori contacts him on his earpiece.

"I see Tohka's watching the commercial huh"

"Yeah she is, do you have something to do with this?"

"Kind of I had to call in some favors to get them to display the food so blatantly, but other than that this has nothing to do with us"

"I assume you want me to go on another date I'm guessing"

"Yup but not with Tohka"

"What then why…"

"Easy your going on a date with Miku, Tohka will be coming with Yoshino and me while you're on the date"

"Okay but aren't you supposed to help me on my dates"

"Normally yes but in this case no since Miku adores you and we wouldn't be much help so good luck"

Shido takes out his earpiece (and neglects to put it back in) and gets ready for the day, but first he has to call Miku to invite her on the date (She was more than excited to say yes) and dress nice. Down in the streets Origami passes by a lottery booth and sees that the prize is two tickets to the carnival, enters, and wins the two tickets. Feeling somewhat excited she is about to call Shido on his phone, but then sees he's walking close by. Shido is walking on his way to meet Miku at the carnival; while walking he sees Origami standing in front of him holding up the tickets.

"Shido I have tickets to that special carnival, do want to go with me?"

"Well uh thanks but uh you see I already have tickets and I'm going with Miku so… hey why not ask Mana you two are friend's right I'm sure she'd like to hang out with you"

"So you're going on a date with that girl this time"

"Yeah I'm really sorry but how about I treat you to lunch tomorrow how about that?"

"Just the two us fine"

Origami leaves without another word with her usual look as Shido continues on his way until he reaches the entrance gates of the carnival which resembled more of a gigantic circus since it was under a massive tent which obscured the wonders inside. Miku stood at the gate wearing a blue dress with matching shoes wanting to look nice for her darling.

"Sorry were you waiting long?"

"Not too long to see you darling"

Miku clings to Shidos arm as they enter the tent. The inside was magnificent there were rides tons of stands filled with games and food, and all of it looked expensive. First they went to try some of the rides as they began their date Shido fails to notice Tohka eating all of the bread in one stand after apparently winning some contest (thanks to Kotori) while Origami and Mana just walk around (Origami is actually trying spying on Shido) looking at all the stands. While Origami isn't looking Mana sees someone who catches her eye buying some kind of candy in a bag. From behind the person appeared to be Kurumi however after turning Mana becomes a little relieved the person she saw was actually a young girl with long hair tied in a ponytail which hanged in the front of her body. Her hair was blue, but the ponytail portion was dyed black, she wore sunglasses, a black biker outfit, with white boots, and white gloves, with a yellow ascot the outfit was kind of familiar to her. Not feeling too worried Mana left her alone and continued with Origami and decided to play some games.

Two hours later

After many rides (including a tunnel of love ride) Shido and Miku decide to sit down and eat something, Miku sat down while Shido went to get something they saw earlier. In front of him was the girl Mana had seen earlier she was ordering a beverage, but as she turned and saw him she gasped for a split second as if she was surprised to see him. Shido got a glimpse of one of her eyes which was red; the other one however was covered with an eye patch which caused him to spontaneously ask.

"Why are you wearing an eye patch with sunglasses?"

"My you don't know and yet you ask about my fashion sense do ask all girls why they wear the things they do, naughty boy"

"Huh no no no that's not what I meant, I mean it's just so strange"

Shido then notices her manner of speaking which made him think of Kurumi, but this girl looked different enough not to be her since her presence felt different to him.

"Hehehe I'm just teasing you, no what I meant to say was…."

Before the girl can finish her sentence the tent is attacked by 5 DEM bandersnatches which target Shido and all gang up on him while everyone else in the tent is in frenzy. Shido tries to use Tohkas power to materialize Sandalphon to fight back, but he he gets blown into the food tent and can't get up. The young girl pulls out a weapon, a double barrel sawn off shotgun with blades on the sides and between the barrels which she wields with one hand.

"Guess this is you're lucky day…Shido"

The girl shoots at one of the machines six times blowing it into pieces; she then attacks the second with the blades on her gun slicing it into six sections. The other 3 set their sights on her and attack all together with great speed, however she dodges with impossible speed so fast Shido didn't see her move at all, she then appears in front of Shido with her arm extended to help him up, which he accepts.

"Hey what about those …."

The other 3 bandersnatches fall to pieces covered in slash marks and bullet holes.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, but are you spirit"

"That's my little secret and you should never ask a girl her secrets, but I know you're a good boy"

"Uh yeah right hehe…but could you at least tell me your name?

"Oh my name well it's (chuckle) Saburo (chuckle) Komyoji hahahaha"

"What's so funny?"

"Nothing Saburo Komyoji"

Miku arrives at the scene just now because she had difficulties with the crowd of people, Origami and Mana arrive combat as they saw the bandersnatches while Tohka, Kotori, and Yoshino were outside with other civilians waiting for the crisis to settle.

"Darling are alright, you weren't hurt were you..(points at Saburo) did you attack my darling Shido you hussie!?"

"Miku it's okay she saved me"

"Oh then in that case…(gets closer)I'm sorry for my harsh words how can I thank you for protecting my darling"

"That's alright, Shido I'll see you around"

The mystery girl Saburo flashes away leaving Shido wondering confused about what just happened. Why is DEM after him again and who is Saburo really. At an unknown location Saburo converses with a young man who is can't be seen.

"Saburo Komyoji? You really chose a hell of an alias this time"

"I know, wonder how long it takes them to notice if at all hahahaha"

"Still don't forget what we're here for don't interfere too much and he must protected at all costs"

"I won't forget…. dearest brother"
