The 5 Prodigy Disciples are in a room with Kiyoshi. He gives them special armbands they have to wear until the end of the Shorai Skirmish. They all put it on.
They're all sitting on a couch. There's a table in front of them and behind that table is where Kiyoshi is standing. Daku has his feet on the table.
“Alright guys, since your new Prodigy Disciples, I thought, why not introduce ourselves.”
They all nod.
“Great, let's say our names, what element disciple group you are, one fun fact about us and a goal you want to achieve. I'll start. My names Kiyoshi. One fun fact about me is that I was originally part of the S.I.D.”
Kuragami raises his eyebrows.
“A goal I want to achieve. I want to get my brother back.”
Daku puts his feet on the floor.
“Anyways, Isamu your turn.”
“Alright. My names Isamu Denki. I am a Thunder Disciple. One fun fact about me is that my dad is a former Kizoku. And one goal I have is to become the strongest Thunder Disciple.”
Kuragami starts to chuckle. Then begins to laugh out loud. Hoshiko pinches Kuragami to get him to stop laughing. He stops laughing. Isamu starts to get angry.
“What's so funny you blue haired idiot!”
“One fun fact about you? Then you go on to say something about your deadbeat father.”
Kuragami laughs.
“Fine. One fun fact about me is that I used to bully your best friend Homura back in the day.”
“Yeah, try that now. He’ll beat your ass.”
“I don’t see him in this room. Do you?”
“The Kashikoi are old, they don’t know what they’re talking about!”
Kiyoshi slightly raises his aura.
“That’s enough.”
They both quiet down and sit back down peacefully.
“Now next, Hoshiko.”
Hoshiko giggles and stands up. She’s wearing black and yellow attire, the yellow matching her eyes.
“My names Hoshiko Heulwen. I am a Light Disciple. One fun fact about me is that I am the only person my age that can use light travel. Even if it's not for very long. One goal I want to achieve is to become the strongest female Disciple.”
Kiyoshi nods.
“Who knows, the strongest disciple could be female.”
She sits down.
“Sasaki, your turn.”
“My names Sasaki Bushida. I was born without an element. One fun fact about me is that I was born and raised outside the five sections. And I only have one goal, to become the strongest swordsman.”
“There are some insanely strong swordsman out there. Be careful.”

Kuragami chuckles. He stands up and jumps on the table. He faces the other four while his back is turned to Kiyoshi.
“My names Kuragami Nozomi! I'm a Ice Disciple! One fun fact about me is that I once found a legendary weapon of ice! And my goal is-”
They all stare at him in interest. Kiyoshi smiles.
“To open the gates of everyone’s dreams!”
Isamu scoffs. Hoshiko lightly claps.
Daku stands up.
“How childish.”
Kuragami sits down on the table.
“My names Daku Improbus. I am a Dark Disciple, the world’s most ruthless element group. There are no fun facts about me. And my goal is to become the strongest Disciple of all time. So strong that no one will be able to tell me what do, that no man will be able to limit me!”
“Strongest huh?”
Kuragami chuckles.
“You aim too low.”
“Know your place, Nozomi.”
They both go face to face with each other. Kiyoshi claps his hands as hard as he can.
“Alright guys that's it. I'll gladly beat you all up, don't force me to. Your Prodigy Disciples, you don't fight each other, you help each other. Make sure you all grow together.”
Daku and Kuragami both sit down.
“Thank you. Now I need to give you guys rules you need to follow before the skirmish.”
They all nod their heads.
“Rule 1, Don't talk to any other Shorai meaning that if they aren't Prodigy Disciples, you can't speak to them.”
“What? So I can't speak to Cherry or Homura?”
"You can't speak to them no matter what."
“What if I need to speak to them to tell them I can't speak to them?”
“No.”
“But I-”
“No!”
“Okay fine.”
Kuragami crosses his arms.
"Rule 2, no attacking or sabotaging other teams. So pretty much don't have anything to do with any of the other Shorai.”
“What if we need to go toilet and someone goes to the same toile-”
“Shut up Kuragami!”
They all say that in unison.
“Okay sorry. No more questions.”
Kiyoshi sighs.
“Rule 3, the final rule, you can't go back home until after the Shorai Skirmish.”
“So we're staying in this hotel? Cool.”
“Yeah. I’m gonna give you guys advice on the skirmish though. All I have to say is, be free there.”
They all look confused.
Kiyoshi looks at the door. Three seconds later someone opens it. They all look to see one of the Kashikoi walk in.
“Hello young Shorai. I think it's appropriate if I give you my name before you head off. My names Genji, just Genji. As you already know I'm one of the Kashikoi.”
They all greet the Kashikoi in a respectful manor.
“Now congratulations for becoming Prodigy Disciples but I didn't come here to talk to all of you. I came here for Kiyoshi and Kuragami so can the four of you leave please?”
“Wait for me outside guys.”
“Ok.”
Hoshiko pats Kuragami's head and leads the others to the way out.
The four leave without a doubt and they wait outside the building for Kuragami.
“Kuragami, how have you been?”
Kuragami seems nervous. He never gets nervous.
“I've been good. All this Prodigy Shorai Skirmish stuff has got me excited. I think I'm ready for it.”
“That's great to hear. Firstly, I would like to say sorry for your loss. Losing your father at such a young age must be very hard. After the Shorai Skirmish, we will host a big funeral for him funded by the Disciple Regiment as he is a individual who has helped us a lot in the past. He is an important figure after all.”
“Okay. Thanks. But what about my brother? Will he be able to come?”
“Um. I am not sure at the moment. We don't even know his whereabouts. It's up to him though. Honestly.”
Kiyoshi notices that Kuragami felt down after hearing that.
“Listen Kuragami, I'm close with Yuma. Knowing him he's perfectly fine. He's smart and also one of the strongest people I know. I know for a fact that he's fine out there.”
“Yes you heard Kiyoshi. Now if your brother ever communicates with you, make sure you let us know ok?”
"Okay?”
“Great. Have a nice day Kuragami. You too Kiyoshi”
Genji then leaves the building. Kiyoshi and Kuragami are by theirselves.
“Hey Kuragami, if Yuma ever contacts you or talks to you face to face, make sure that you don't tell anyone other than me. Ok?”
I wasn’t going to anyways. Why do they care so much though?”
“Because they want Yuma to go down. They think it's not safe for him to roam free. He knows too much. But you don’t have to worry.”
“Why not?”
“Because I have it all under control. Plus, Yuma told me to look after you while he's gone. He's my only friend so I thought why not. I'll protect you with my life since that's what Yuma wants me to do. If you need someone to trust and listen to you, it's me.”
“Thank you Kiyoshi.”
“Also if you somehow manage to come first in The Shorai Skirmish, I’ll train you for a bit.”
“Really?”
Kiyoshi nods.
“You’re the best Kiyoshi!”
“Now go. You got two weeks to prepare for The Shorai Skirmish.
Kuragami runs out cheering. The other Prodigy Disciples are confused to as why Kuragami is this happy. Sasaki walks up to him and grabs him.
“Why are you cheering and jumping all around the place?”
“I’m sorry you guys, but I’m winning The Shorai Skirmish.”
“Look around Kuragami’s, we’re not gonna let you!”
Kuragami smiles.
