"I'm asking you once more, who are you?" Victoria insisted.

"Look, my dear," Nobara interrupted as she was annoyed, "he is merely a dog with an ordinary superpower. Do you insist for more?"

Nobara glared at Victoria with malice and intense repugnance. Victoria returned the glance with a revulsion expression and she looked down on Nobara like a goddess. Victoria closed her eyes and sighed momentarily. She lifted her wooden staff and raised it to the air like a flag. The spiral top end of the staff glowed red with black stripes of thin shadow, lighting up the darkness with bright red light. The crowds were spellbound by great unwitting inquisitiveness as they watched the source of the bright red light.

The opened ceiling was veiled with massive darkness, every eyes in the arena locked their eyes on the necromancer. Some suffered from trepidation and some were quite intrigued.

Victoria twirled her staff slowly and black shadow exuded from her staff thus creating a massive black shadow sphere. The shadow burst into a bright full moon with dark clouds protecting it as fences. Yuu lifted his head up and gazed upon the full moon. He hugged and squeezed his head as he felt the ray from the moon slowly manipulating his spinning brain. He groaned and screamed in pain, Victoria watched him with her sleazy iridescent eyes.

"Yuu!!" Cried Nobara while embracing Yuu. "What have you done to him! The full moon leads him to the awakening!! I demand you to put this to an abrupt halt!"

Nobara released Yuu as his body grew larger and extra long and sharp claws grew from each of his soft paws. Yuu screamed and bawled and his voices deepened and soon only wolf's voices could be heard from his larynx. He was conscious but his mind was completely hypnotised by the moonlight. He grew larger and larger; his fangs were big, his fur was thicker than his dog form. His body stopped growing as he reached the height of six metres; he became the biggest wolf ever to exist. He howled then growled as he saw Nobara who was numbed. Victoria watched Yuu as he raised his large, sharp claws paw to the air.

"Abunai!!" Victoria shrieked and briskly jumped to Nobara then they fell off from the heptagon before Yuu could leave a scratch on Nobara.

Nobara's jaw dropped as she was speechless and numb. The crowd gasped and cried with enticing trepidation. The emcee stood numbly on his high level platform, unable to conduct further script in his head as he was mesmerized by the huge wolf on the 7th diamond. Yuu snarled and growled with a deep and hoarse voice. He glared at Nobara with his glowing emerald eyes and his saliva kept pouring from his huge jaws. He opened his jaws and before he could plunge to Nobara and Victoria, large and stout chains with ochre flames fetched his neck first. Yuu turned to Era who caught him with chains connected to each of her fingers. She pulled him like a marionette on a string but he was too tough and too large to be moved freely.

Yuu struggled and eventually broke the chains into pieces with his lightning bolt which he induced from his paws then Era fell down on her knees. Benditto caught his neck with strands of bluish seawater to avoid him from charging to Nobara. He barked and growled, trying to deteriorate the cold flow of water around his neck. Hayabusa clapped his hands together, raising the pressure of the streams.

"Yuu," cried Nobara softly with her teary eyes begging him to calm down.

Era seized Yuu's large limbs with her imaginary stout chains and locked them together then he fell heavily on the floor.

"Victoria, now!!" Era shouted with an angry tone.

Victoria was numbed as if she was preoccupied. She decrepitly stood and grasped her staff tightly, undoing the full moon. The full moon exploded and scattered into dark crimson dust which faded into the still air. She fell on her feet and stared at the floor arduously. Nobara looked at Yuu, who hadn't changed in shape and was still a huge wolf. Victoria set her eyes on the huge beast and her eyes widened, witnessing her great mess.

"I don't understand, why is he still a wolf? The moon has gone and yet he still-" Victoria was suffocating for air and breathed heavily.

Yuu moved arduously to the left and to the right until the chains broke and the streams around his neck buffeted off. He extricated himself from the tormenting chords. He opened his jaws and a ball of blue electric grew from his mouth then he fired it randomly around. He had become a berserker. Nobara without further daydreaming, she charged to Yuu and plunged to his huge hairy neck. She embraced him tightly. Twenty-six golden cannons with the head of a Chinese dragon appeared and floated in a circle above Yuu. Instead of firing balls and chains, they continuously fired lumps of soothing snow. The cannons covered his fur with a thin blanket of snow to cool down his heated body.

Nobara released Yuu and spread out her arms. Her eyes were burnt with light red flames, her body was glowing bright red and a dark orange magic circle glowed underneath her feet. The other sentinels lent her a helping hand; Era caught Yuu's neck with thick glowing yellow vines, Benditto tied his limbs with high pressured stream of water, Hayabusa held down Yuu by increasing the strength of the gravity force specifically underneath him, Ruthbert's adorable greenish purple with red scattered spots blob engulfed every ball of lightning he launched, Adalbert covered his visions with clear white clouds, and Victoria tried to manipulate his mine.

Victoria's eyes widened as she read his subconscious mind and heart which was engulfed by darkness. She saw vivid images of his sorrow, intense loathe and envy for a man, and solitary. Victoria stared at Nobara who stood stiffly in front of him. The darkness which engulfed his heart led him to the awakening of the alpha power but not the demonic power. His love was rejected by the woman he loved the most. The alpha power fed on his sorrow and dark heart.

"Dr Tachibana, confess to him how you truly feel about him!! You are at fault for this awakening!" Victoria shouted while balancing herself on the first diamond which glowed with bright indigo light.

Nobara nodded. She stepped closer to Yuu. Hayabusa pulled his head to the floor with the force of gravity even though he faced difficulty. Nobara squatted in front of his huge snout and patted his huge nose slowly. Yuu locked his huge emerald irises on her but didn't blink. He snarled but his body was completely paralysed. Nobara hugged his huge snout while patting it.

"Yuu, you're my best friend, we spent our days and nights together. Without you on my bed, I can't sleep. Without you beside me, I'm lonely. I love you, I'm sorry that I never consider how you feel, since the day I saw you, I know that you're the one who must accompany me. So please, please come back, you're part of me, Yuu," Nobara sobbed slowly then kissed his huge nose.

Yuu growled and blinked his eyes. He closed his eyes then his huge body faded into glittering small fluffy and colourful lights. The chains and water around him vanished into small lights which floated and lit up the darkness. The glowing light on Nobara's lap transformed into a little puppy, a little husky. He was unconscious but still breathing. Nobara lifted him to the air as he opened his eyes slowly and embraced him like an infant and stroked his soft black fur. The black smoke faded, unveiling the natural light from the opened ceiling.

Victoria looked at the emcee and sent him a voice message telepathically. The emcee heard voices in his head then nodded as he returned his glance at Victoria. He lifted his microphone and inhaled deeply. Nobara blithely embraced Yuu and returned to her diamond then it glowed red. All of the seven diamonds glowed brightly and each light produced a long stream of light which intersected at the golden heptagon in the middle of the huge heptagonal platform. The lights mixed together and formed a temporary white beacon. The beacon formed a sphere light then transformed into a glowing blonde woman with fair white glowing skin with a crown made of vines and flowers. Her ears were long and pointed and her eyes were solid white. Her white dress blew softly backward.

She took a sample of light from each diamond and mixed them together until they formed a solid golden crosier. She took a little light from the sun as if it was a physical object, and put it on the head of the crosier. The crosier lit up amber blaze then the glowing white lady faded into the sun ray with the crosier hovered fixedly in the air above the golden heptagon.

"What a marvelous and tremendous parade by our heroes today, what we see and what they've presented varied our emotions and the mesmerising shows have won one's heart. The denouement ends here," the emcee bowed while putting his hand on his chest. "We would be honoured to see the Sentinel's Game which begins after the sun rises a bit higher to the sky tomorrow."

The huge crowd cheered and gave the sentinels a huge applause. Victoria was glad that everything went smoothly, she was just cleaning her mess.

"Nobara-sama, shouldn't you enjoy the dessert below? You waste your red satin dress," Yuu startled as he sat beside Nobara who was sitting on the roof of the palace while gazing upon the starry night sky.

"I would like to see the meteor shower tonight, I want to see them vividly from this roof," Nobara replied.

Yuu fixed his bowtie and sat closer beside Nobara without giving her a stare. He glanced at Nobara who paid all of her heed to the colourful glittering night sky. He moved his hand slowly and engulfed her hand then grabbed it tightly with his huge pal but Nobara did nothing to it. He cleared his throat then frantically kissed her cheek. Nobara opened her eyes widely and her face turned red. She looked at Yuu who pretended to be innocent.

"You," Nobara growled wretchedly and grabbed his collar by force.

"Ahh, Nobara-sama I didn't mean to-" Yuu paused as Nobara kissed his rosy lips.

Yuu was numbed and he blinked repetitively. He closed his eyes and grabbed her head. Nobara released him slowly then they exchanged glances. Nobara giggled then burst into laughter followed by Yuu. Nobara averted her eyes to the sky as the teeming meteor shower began launching and raining the glittering starry sky. Yuu glanced at Nobara who rejoiced over the glittering turquoise meteor showers. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder and let her rest her head on his cheek.

Ryuuchiro and Nozomu were watching the meteor showers from inside the gala hall through the huge baroque window together with the other sentinels. Benditto watched the meteor showers at the entrance and averted his eyes to the couple sitting on the roof. He despised looking at Nobara being clingy with another man then entered the hall while greeting the ladies with his charm.
