It's a day like no other, Akiko normally doesn't head outside unless it's training or school. Even then she skips school anyway. And guess what she's doing right now! Skipping school...to train. Akiko really wants to be like her Dad, Kokuryuu. However...she hasn't been able to do so since...well, let's just say she can only go by memory now.

Akiko has a claymore. Her dog plushie Hajime, sits under a tree. Hajime looks like he's brand new...but he's not.

"How was that Hajime!?"
