After his meeting with Daki, Kagari was now standing on a rooftop in Kuoh Town as he waited for someone to arrive. As he waited, he looked down at his hand and released a small amount of his aura. A purple glow can be seen emanating from his body.

He looked up to the night sky as he thought to himself....

Kagari: (It has been a few years since that day, hasn't it?)

*Flashback, 14 years ago*

A 5 year old Kagari can be seen sleeping in his bedroom after a goodnight kiss from his mother. As he slept, he began to have a dream....or rather he thought it was a dream.

He awoke to see that he was floating in what seemed to be an endless spiral of darkness. The catch was, the darkness didn't want him to fall....

The darkness was calling him.

He heard a voice call out from the dark.

???: Kagari Sanashi...

Kid Kagari: Who....Who said that...?

???: I am behind you, child.

Kagari turned around to see a huge, muscular shadow with glowing flame-like purple hair, glowing purple eyes, two curved black horns, and sharp claws. He also wore jet-black armor and a long smoky black cloak, and wielded a pure black sword.

???: Welcome to my shadow dimension, young one.

Kid Kagari: AHHHH! A monster!

Ashborn: Calm down, boy. Believe me when I say I am no monster. My name is Ashborn.

Kid Kagari: Ashborn?

Ashborn: Yes, but do not worry about introductions. For now, I wish to test you.

Kid Kagari: A test?
