"…Wow," Alma muttered. "Wait, Maria, how could you 'feel' it?"
"…It's a secret," Maria replied with a small smile. "But I could."
"Now that the thing's gone, that fairy… will she not bother us anymore?" Erika asked. "I hope not! And who the hell was she anyway?"

"Yeah…" Matsuo nodded. "Like Kireina."
"Wait, what? Kireina?!" Erika exclaimed. "You mean to say that bitch brought her family here?! W-Why?!"
"Don't call her that, Erika…" Matsuo sighed. "She's our friend."
"WAS, Matsuo, WAS!" Erika snapped angrily. "I don't want to ever see that bitch again after what she did to us!"
