(GS3) Field: Rijuku Park

"...Trust me i know... like I said i've joined Neu as well.." he said.

"Nevertheless, i understand your reasons, but if you need someone to back you up don't hesitate.." he said.

Tsubasa knew that he would have to fight Neo sometime, whether for fun or to show him that he's not alone at least not anymore. All he can do now is play his part and since Neu's actions have left him with no choice, he wil have to continue down his path just like Neo.

"Listen young lady i'm not interested in a cardfight right now...but if you could do me a favor...please cardfight against Neo...he needs some fun to lighten him up, thx" he says, referring to the young lady who walked in between their conversation.

[NeoBuster]

Neo then noticed Ighanna in the distance and gave her a wave to tell her Neo noticed her

[Azuki Frappé]

"Hm sure I'll lighten up the mood then." Ighanna said as she sobs tearily over Neo's story about his parents. She then grabs out her deck, and notices that even her avatar, Metatron, was sobbing a bit seen from a drop of tear on her pair of glasses.

"Vermillion eh, we need to get serious then, that units no joke." Metatron whispered to Ighanna as she was getting ready for Neo to bring out his table.

[NeoBuster]

Neo noticed Ighanna staring at him as if he was expecting him to do something

"Your looking at me a certain way arent you?" Let me guess you want a cardfight dont you?" Neo said

[Azuki Frappé]

"Your pleasure, I'd be pleased to. But where would we- wait, you have your table don't you" Ighanna accepted the challenge as she asked for a settlement.

[NeoBuster]

Neo took out his portable table and set his starter down

"I hope your ready!" Neo said to Ighanna

[Hope]

Neu left a voicemail for Tsubasa:

"Hey, I know this is sudden all, but I wanna ask you out if you wanna go on a date with me tonight. It's a really nice place along the outskirts of the forest hiking trail, my treat. Also I even have a beautiful dress ready, it's formal and all, so I'll make sure to look nice and pretty as your date! Just leave me a voice mail if you wanna go."

[OverDrive]

"....huh, how did she get my number...Neo...-sigh-...wait a date?!" he gasped.

"...I wanna say this is not like her but then again I probably cannot put it past her to do something like this....I guess I should go." he thought, as he began to leave the park.

"Very sudden actually, but sure i'll meet you there I would not mind some peace after all tht's happening just make sure that dress is worth it, haha"

"Can't believe I just made a joke over voicemail...guess this means I better get a suit myself......I wonder...." he thought, as a slight tear began to appear near his eye. "....I guess a formal date requires a formal suit dad...."

Tsubasa leaves the Park and heads home to get changed before meeting Neu at the Forest

It had been a while since Tsubasa had been on a date, and he thinks of himself of as a child back then even thought it was only two years before he had done so.

"...Why the forest though...I would expect her to go for something more fancy....matter of fact why me?!" he thought.

[NeoBuster]

The cardfight went back and forth. Metatron vs Vermillion was probably something people would have payed to see, except Ighanna's fan club didnt have to pay because they got a front row seat for free to see the action. The Limit Breaks of both Metatron and Vermillion were game changers with the crows excited to see who would actually come away with the victory. It had seemed like Neo was trapped in a corner to never escape. When Ighanna's Million Ray Pegasus attacked Vermillion, the crowd cheered thinking she had claimed Victory. But when Neo checked the damage trigger, it was a heal trigger keeping him in the game. TO the crowd's displeasure, Neo finished off Ighanna with a combination of Dragonic Kaiser Vermillion and Thunder Break Dragon. Neo gave Ighanna high praise. Despite being a superstar, she knows how to use the Angel Feather clan. Neo gave Ighanna a handshake without asking for her autograph and put away his cards and portable table. While Ighanna's fans were booing me to death, Neo looked around and noticed something

"Hold on, where did Tsubasa go?" Neo asked

Neo looked around but he was nowhere to be seen

"I guess he had to go" Neo said to himself

[Azuki Frappé]

Ighanna was slightly surprised by the 6th damage heal trigger which changed the outcome of the game, however that game was already as intense as it is. She then walked to greet her fans and thanked Neo for the cardfight with a handshake. She realized right after that that she was still extremely hungry and Neo didn't seem to be able to treat her food either so she walked sadly away to a food store and bought a delicious box of lunch for herself to enjoy and quench her thirst. Metatron was probably extremely tired after the battle too so she went to sleep meanwhile Ighanna joyfully ate her plentiful of food which costed a bit.

[NeoBuster]

Neo noticed that Ighanna went to eat lunch. So he let her eat.

Neo then walked off to go find where Tsubasa went off too..

"Where did he go..?" Neo said

+3 Affinity to Ighanna

Satoshi fiddled with his phone, mumbling a bit. Tonight, his two best friends were securing their love together, something he had been waiting for them to do for ages, ever since Yukino had turned them down. They were much better for each other, after all, and his purpose lay elsewhere. Perhaps as their couples' counselor or something alongside Hana? That seemed a little silly, considering he had never actually been in a real relationship before, and Hana was even younger than him in terms of experience with love.

But, this moment of emotional connection was helping the two of them get out of both of their funks. Even though Haruka had wanted to punch him yesterday---which the Seraph did for him without trouble---perhaps he had actually realized that, in a way, his brother in arms was right. Mostly because he was, for once. Those two needed to stop focusing on Cray so much and let him and Hana handle things for a while.

Speaking of, Seph had returned from a meeting to explain to Satoshi that the War of Liberation had begun at the behest of Hana the Vanguard, and soon enough, Yukino and Haruka would know as well. "It's important that those two get back on their feet, because you four are to lead the charge in---"

The farmboy waved a hand weakly. "Yeah, yeah. I hope Ezel and Vortimer at least have the nerve to be a little patient in telling them, because this is a night they've needed for a long time, and I'm not about to see that get messed up again, after all this trouble."

"Something the matter?" Seph floated, assuming his now usual cross-legged position, next to his champion. "You seem a bit restless."

"Well, while those two are taking time off from Cray because they need it the most, Hana and I, as you just explained, should be busy." Satoshi looked about, hands sliding into his pockets reminiscent of his good friend Haruka. "So my task is to find our fifth."

"Our fifth?" Seph raised an eyebrow. "What fifth?"

"You know exactly what fifth. There may be the Triad of Hope and Hana, but there's another who was associated with that night that isn't our enemy."

Satoshi closed his eyes, and opened them once more to their normal brown color turning green instead, with leaves inscribed around his pupils.

"Jellal Kisaragi has Aqua Force. And as far as I'm concerned, that newly unsealed clan is another step in trying to free those that are currently sealed."

[NeoBuster]

Neo had looked for Tsubasa all night but never found him. So he sat on the park bench and just layed down to rest. Neo hadnt sleep for a few nights so he decided to rest up while Neu or Tsubasa came to get him.

[Beryl]

Having slept for the night against a tree, Satoshi checked his phone. No answer from Yukino, but it looked like the message hadn't even been opened. He smirked. That was a sign that the intimacy of the night was incredibly intense. Good.

He tilted his head up, still leaning against the tree. He debated getting something to eat before continuing his search for Jellal, but maybe if he found the blond Aqua Force user, they could talk over coffee or something.

[Kuro]

After using his justice at the local card shops to give fighters a reason to have a fun time, Haruki was ready to take a relaxing break at the park. He walked through the scenery of greenery looking for a good spot to lay down, but during his stroll he saw his friend Neo resting on a park bench. The young man of justice walked up to see how his friend was doing.

"Hey Neo, nice to see you." Haruki gave a friendly wave as he went to Neo.
