Pro opened her eyes and sat up. She was on the same stage as the last dream and the masked girl sitting across from her was playing with a figure from Rider's Cue, making dynamic poses while Pro lied in front of her. "You're doing well, hero. Your first tempest completed. I foresee many more later on. The people are too lost in despair, but you inspire change."

She placed the figure down, having it balanced perfectly on its feet. "Even if the inspiration is little now….It'll grow."

Just what was she going on about…?

"I know you have a lot of questions, but I have an important request. Hopefully this isn't too much to ask from you hero, but my cat ran away somewhere in this garden of shadows. I think you understand the severity of this."

Severity? It was just a cat that was missing, not a dangerous beast… unless that cat turned out to be such a creature. Pro dropped a sweat in concern for herself.

"Don't worry he's a cute cat." The Masked girl reassured but Pro was still on the edge. "You'll find him located at a specific garden in Shibuya's forest. I trust you'll succeed."

Pro's vision blurred and everything fell--engulfed in darkness.

The weekend came by, finally. Freedom from the confines of the classroom; the sun was shining despite the gray cloudy skies of late January. Pro stopped walking to get a full look of the sunflower library, the place where it all began. Now dressed in casual clothing; a red and black striped hoodie, black skirt and red shoes--she felt different in a way coming back to the place where her crazy journey started and where it would get much worse.

Requests upon requests of the most absurd variety. When she stated such desires as 'I want to get a girl to look at me' she wasn't kidding. Joined by Maine, she had to pretend to be fighting for the boy's affection to create a love triangle scenario in order to make the girl jealous. Naturally the boy had zero charm and the girl passed by him ignoring his gaze and entire being, but scoffed towards Maine and Pro for being tools to the whims of the school.

'GRRRAAAA!!! You unattractive boy! Learn to have charisma!' cried Maine to her client. After that she found a love letter tied to the council's door from the girl the boy wanted to attract. Resulting in a real love triangle scenario; 'GRRAAAAA!!! I leave for a few days and the school becomes like this?!' cried Maine again.

It was half a month? That was apparently enough to lose their talent dealing with the students at the school. Remy, being so blunt, wasn't the brightest, and paired with Luka's misplaced strategies, it resulted in causing a student to bawl her eyes out for weeks. Presenting her with a dead cat--

'Ah, I regret to inform you but your pet has died.'

--It wasn't even the right cat! That was a stray, the cat in the photo she was given was a darker black and wore a collar. Pro found the real lost cat later on and had to apologize for her friend's inconvenience. Behind the scenes in their council room they were given a stern scolding.

'I apologize, Pro. but Wagami-san came to the final conclusion. I merely followed.' Pushing the blame? Where was your shame Remy?!

'Sorry Pro, but they looked the same.' A guess?! Did you even try Luka!

Now she was here at the library joined by this lousy bunch to show them properly how it was done.

"Pro! What's up?!" Maine surprised Pro from behind, quickly hopping in front of her. "You really came! I thought you were just going to skip coming with us." She had a blue and black letterman jacket over a white buttoned dress and black leggings with blue shoes. Her peach colored hair was slightly shorter than Pro's hair and accompanied by twintails with black ribbons.

"Oh you're early." Remy commented while walking over to the two. "I assume Kyokai and Gachi are not coming with?"

The fox rushe was dressed in a white buttoned shirt, black capri pants and black shoes. Her white hair was held in a low bun by a blue ribbon.

"I'm here!" Luka came to a halt beside Pro. She wore a striped navy blue dress, the upper half transparent along with the sleeves. White knee socks and black shoes.

"So, is everyone ready? I think our client is inside." Maine asked and the Pro nodded in response. Together they entered the library, now rampant--full of students from various schools and people just looking for a good book to read. They looked left and right for their client but couldn't find the male who said he would still be wearing his uniform on the day they were to meet.

Maine then took the paper form out of her jacket pocket and looked over it. "We're looking for…"

"That guy right there." A boy beside Maine pointed at their client.

"Alright thanks-- Hey wait a minute!" She looked at the uninvited guest beside her. He had brown hair and green eyes and a sharp youthful face. Well dressed in business casual attire; a white striped polo shirt tucked into belted pants and a navy blazer over it. He waved at the group with a grin "Hello council president and others."

"Others..?" Maine dropped a sweat at his rude remark.

The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.

"What brings me here you ask?" The guest said.

"We didn't ask--"

The guest cut Pro's sentence short. "I'm here to meet with someone just like you. Funny that we all gather here on the same day." He eyed Luka in the corner of his eye, a smirk flashed and he looked back at the group. "I'm still waiting for my repayment from you Pro."

"Repayment? I should be asking you that for leaving the council." Pro responded.

"Who is this guy?" Maine spoke up again.

"Roymond von A. Harway. Some aristocrat." Remy answered unimpressed by the noble's invasion and motioned her hand for Roy to move. "We're kinda busy, so if you will move along..?"

"My apologies. Take care, and Pro." Roy had a more serious expression when calling her name. "Remember that bonds are your strength. Never forget that."

Roy then took his leave and Pro was left confused by the statement. What did that have to do with anything..? She shook the thought away, there was a client they needed to help anyway.

They approached a simple looking boy with glasses--their client. He explained that math wasn't his strong suit and asked if they could assist him in understanding the concepts. Well they're here for that reason, helping people, and Pro had to demonstrate to her friends how to properly communicate in a respectful and decent manner.

Seeing his notebook scribbled with notes and equations, Pro pointed at one. "Wow you're bad at this?"

With all the subtle rudeness lost on her causing a pause of awkwardness to grow between the two parties. No, no, no. Pro, you're bad at this too. Breaking this silence was Remy, being the only one to see where Pro went wrong. "Luka and I will help him with these problems. See if you two can find a useful book to help with his studies."

"Sounds like a plan." Maine grabbed Pro’s hand. "Let’s go." And dragged Pro away to the deep hallway of shelves. Like a maze, Pro found nothing but books upon books and almost got lost when Maine ran ahead searching for math textbooks, only to be jump scared by her 'wan wan wan!' on the other side of the shelf. She had a notorious fear of dogs. When they joined back together in the school aisle they examined the bottom row of books related to math.

Maine lightly brushed her hand across the books then turned to Pro. "Find anything?"

"Not yet…." Pro's reponse trailed off when she caught a glimpse of a small cat-eared girl struggling to reach a high book. She dropped a sweat watching the small girl fail over and over to reach the book. Helping people she didn’t know well wasn't Pro's thing, but this was just pathetic watching her stand on her toes and jump trying to grab the edge of the book and barely reaching it. So Pro grabbed the book the girl couldn't reach and handed it over.

"I didn't need your help. I almost had it." The small cat-eared the girl hissed.

Pro looked at the book then back at the girl. "Want me to put it back?"

"Tch! Asshole. Don't talk to me ever again." She walked away without even taking the book she needed.

"Jeez…"

"Pro, be careful around her!" Maine exclaimed. "That's Cocoa Monomoni, the former prime minister's daughter. She could get you arrested whenever she wants."

"That's ridiculous." Pro replied bluntly.

"It is but I've seen it happen before. Once, a girl had to transfer schools because she called Cocoa a lousy worker. Poor girl lost her dream of being a filmmaker." Maine sighed. She then poked a book and slid it off the shelf. "Here's one. Let's look for more!"

Pro and Maine continued further in the hall of books. Afterwards, they helped their client study. It went rather perfectly for the council members (because Remy did most of the teaching while they were gone) and after that their simple mission was done without any screw ups. A solid win for the student council but there still was the task of finding that masked girl's cat in the superdimension. A garden… but where? When Pro walked in she didn't feel the intense magic steaming from the ground like the first time she was dragged here.

While Maine and Remy were off looking for a book on their own, she leaned closer to Luka whispering, "Hey, let's go to the superdimension."

"Huh? Why?" Luka tilted her head.

"The masked girl told me to find her cat."

"This again?" Luka closed her eyes and tapped her cheek, "Hmm, it's a bit risky to transfer with so many people nearby. Maine and Remy are here too and we can't just leave them so suddenly."

Pro let out a bored groan. After having a taste of freedom she wanted more.

BAM!!

Maine slammed her book on the table upon her return. Thankfully it wasn't loud enough to make the entire library stare in silence, but her rambunctious nature did draw a few glances. Sitting on Pro's right, sitting way too close, she mouthed off. "I miss the times we hung out like this Pro. Life is too boring without you." She grinned with a toothy fang showing, "Because there's always something cool and amazing you get yourself into. I wanna experience life altering adventures."

They heard a yelp followed by a loud thumb and several books falling. Cocoa stumbled out of the hall of book shelves pissed from the stupid law of gravity that betrayed her. And glaring to the table closest to her--that'd be Pro's group

"What are you looking at? Avert your gaze!" Cocoa said. A threat that lacked tone, monotone like Pro. She stuck her nose up and walked away coughing. Amongst her wheezing they heard muttering about stupid purple flowers.

"Purple flowers? Sounds like a mystery, heh! Well we're gonna get going. See you Pro." Maine stood up and left the library with Remy.

Pro looked at her phone, at the mysterious app given to her. A notification displayed 'tempest nearby' was displayed which was strange given the lack of magic in the area. For now she breathed out a sigh and relaxed off for the next few days.

Unknown to Pro's gaze, the light haired female accompanied by her partner, were watching from afar. They had their faces hidden with a book while Pro and Luka walked by on their way to the exit. Once passed, the light haired female lowered her book, her jacket's hood shrouding her face in darkness. "Nothing has been going on with Maine at all. I don't think it was her that caused those killings nor caught the culprit."

Her partner closed her book. "You said the three girls in the council find the culprit right? Err.. Luke, Gacha, and Furo was it?"

The light haired girl giggled at the names "Their names are Luka, Gachi and Pro hehehe! But they told us that it was the yakuza who did it but… mmm."

"It's becoming a distraction now. Let's forget about it for now. There are still many dragons in Shibuya.”

And with that they took their leave from the library.
