Masashi clenches his fist.
Masashi’s eyes change to nothing.
Makoto: No!
Kinche: What?
Makoto: You’ll see.
Masashi: Forgive me if this gets out of hand…
Makoto: But…I’m still learning to control it…

Makoto: Yes. My father had to stop it.

Another girl is walking of the stairs: Lorelei! (Lorelei: Hey!)
Lorelei: What’s going on?
Mamocho: New guy’s standing up to Hikoro, I think he could actually beat him.
Lorelei: No way!
Apollo: Yeah. He’s good, he maybe could even hold his own against Trige.

Makoto: Resort to what?
Hikoro: My new technuique. The Rasendou.
Lorelei and Luna: !
Hatake: What is it?
Luna: The Rasendou…
Shows Hikoro, with a little white tornado in his hand: Is a sacred move, that only few Chi Master know.
