	"Humans are illogical, Kaname. It's not like I want to fight with a superhuman, but depending where and how he makes his move, I have to act. Even if the odds are stacked against me." I replied, making it clear that we might still have a confrontation. Tension ran through the air of the sports warehouse.		"Humans are illogical, Kaname.

-Kaname had experienced two failures recently. Arcanum Duo, and the Lumberjack. It seemed that these experiences had 'cured' her, so to speak. She realised that she was worthless as a weapon, and losing in the duel broke her self-confidence. She seemed to living a normal middle-school life. The middle-school she's going to is far from normal, though. I started to see less and less of the scientific swords she was so proud of. Well, that's a good thing. Aria, who starts firing over who gets to use the remote, or Riko, who sets up landmines for fun, were the ones in the wrong. Kaname should live like a normal person. That was my conviction. She was at an age where she could still turn her life around.

She was at an age where she could still turn her life around.
 I also felt like Kaname's attitude towards me had changed dramatically. It sort of seemed like she had started keeping a little bit of distance from me, appropriate to the brother-sister relationship she insisted we were in. She stopped clinging to me the way Riko did at least, which was a huge relief. But still, she was a total kid, and very attached to me. From time to time I would catch her doing some incomprehensible things, like staring at me from hiding. That was the kind of thing that I'd see in Jeanne's shoujo manga, plotlines like: "I've fallen in love, but my crush is my brother so I can't express it." There were a lot of things like this that made it hard for me to stay home, but it was better than when she used to threaten to stab me thirty times because I was hanging out with other girls. I supposed that I could bear it.

The Third was taken to Los Alamos from Harvard Medical School when he was fourteen years old...she was the only one in the laboratory that treated him nicely. She believed in {{Furigana\|the artificial savant project\|Genioso}}'s power to stop conflict. Kaname produced a Butei handbook, as good as new, and took a photo from inside.

She was staring at the photo, seemingly lost in reminiscence.

			"Where is she now? Still at Los Alamos?" Watson probed further.

			"She's dead." Kaname answered.

-"He's not someone you can hope to win. Not even with HSS or {{Furigana|abilities|Stealth}}. And fighting against something strong than you is the most idiotic thing you can do, Kinji."

			"...Tamamo told me to recruit G-Third into Deen, and I do understand her strategy. If he's willing to negotiate, I'm willing to try."

			"So it all depends on him..."

			"There's no substitute for violence. Cao-Cao and Aria always say that I'm a pacifistic idiot, but even the Japanese brain isn't so filled with butterflies as to keep trying to talk to someone who doesn't bother responding." I spit out.

			"You can't win, Kinji." Watson and I spun around.

			"K-Kaname." She sprung out from inside the bulletproof vaulting horse that had saved Aria and my lives in April. Was she in there the whole time? This was a bad conversation for her to be listening in on. Watson had hidden behind me, almost reduced to whimpers...Kaname, still in spats, ignored her, sitting on the vaulting horse.

			"The Third is strong. He's the perfect outcome of {{Furigana\|the artificial savant project\|Genioso}}. I wouldn't even call him a human." Not like we could do anything about the fact that she had heard. And Kaname's eyes were serious, so I turned to her.

			"G-Third's brain was a complete failure. We've done our own investigating. And if he isn't a human, what is he?"

			"A superhuman." Kaname spoke.

			"If G-Third's objectives are aligned with America and England's, they will hire him. They intend to provide and maintain weapons as compensation. 'You may not be able to chain the beast, but you can feed it for helping you.' Currently, you could say that the simplicity of G-Third's actions is lost on the major countries. Which is why they're asking you. Is G-Third good or evil?" Watson asked me. I thought for a moment before answering.

			"From my perspective, it's simple." I chose to give my simple opinion.

			"Good and evil are entirely dependent on time and place. Even in a fight between two people, your idea of which one is right is entirely dependent on which side you see things from. Even middle school students know that."

			"So he's neither good nor evil?"

			"Yeah. But he's a criminal." I said clearly as Watson's eyes bored into mine.

			"If he comes to Japan with the intent to commit crime, I will arrest him. Because that's what Butei do." Watson nodded.

			"Tohyama." I was gulping down some stomach medicine at the water stand when Watson appeared, clutching red cones under her arm.

			"Is this about your rehabilitation? I'm not going to help you now. Choose a better time and place. If we were seen by Shiranui again..."

			"I haven't even said anything yet. We'll save that for later. But anyway...you didn't use the cooldown as an excuse to touch me anywhere weird right? Like...h-here, or here."

			"What're you getting angry for? Who would want to touch that anyway?"

			"Ah...I did see him do that twice. Sounds about right." Guess there was no way to find someone like him.

			"He can't make his past disappear, though. Have a look at this." Watson took out a few pieces of A4 paper from her back, and passed them to me. Were those papers there throughout the sports festival? No wonder I thought I heard those paper noises when we put our backs together to stretch.

			"...I can't read this. It's in English." I shoved the cinnamon smelling papers back at Watson.

			"Come on. Study a little, Tohyama." Watson sighed, the sound a little feminine. She sat down, and I noticed that her curvy butt was definitely not masculine at all.

			''Uhhh...''

			Damn it. My sense of smell is way too good. Maybe it was 'cause she was sweaty from the sports festival, but...Watson smelled good. It sort of felt like she had something like pheromones in her scent. And she's dressed like a guy. I'm just surprised that it hasn't gotten out that she's a girl yet if she has such a girly scent. The image of her short-shorts above her mostly naked thighs was very healthy, or suggestive, or...I just didn't know anymore.

			'Tohyama, why are you looking at my legs? You're a perv." Watson licked her ring finger with her raspberry coloured tongue before flipping through the pages. I guess it was a habit.

			"I-I wasn't looking. Who would want to?"

			"You're rude." We had this conversation just a minute ago.
