[Flashback] (4 years ago)
In Rakudai Academy. Yukina was walking on the hallway when she bumped a blue haired guy. Her hair is too short on that time.
"Sorry!"
"It's okay! No need to problem!" The blue haired guy response as he continue to walk. He dropped his ID on the floor so Yukina take it and tries to call him. but he's gone. She looks to the ID to know his name.
"K-karatsu Himegami?"
"H-he's my classmate. Shall i give this to him later?" As she enter the bathroom and washes her face.
Yukihara and her mother visited her school. She noticed that Yukihara is not happy. So she try to make her happy but it never work.
"I will leave your little sister to you for a while. I have something to do to my Job. Take care!" Yuki said.
Her classmate including Karatsu looked after her when she's holding Yukihara's hand. She think that bringing her younger sister on her school ruin her reputation.
Yukina leaved Yukihara in the Infirmary room and the nurse of the room take care of her.
After the class, Yukihara is gone missing. The nurse told her that she ran away after her leave.
Yukina didn't hesitate to find her.
"Yukihara!? Where are you?" She keep saying those words to look for her younger sister.
Then she spotted Yukihara in a manhole. the blue haired guy holds her hand to take out of her in the manhole.
"Hang in there! I can take you out there! Hang on!" He said.
"Who are you!? Leave me alone!! I want to die!!" Yukihara replied.
"Idiot! You're still young to die! I think your parents are worried about you!"
"Worried!? They don't care about me! They just leave me when they do something nonsense!"
Yukina didn't do anything just watch what's going on.
the blue haired guy take her out in the manhole. as he closed it then look seriously about her.
"They just do their best just to help you for your future. Go home, i think they were looking at you. Don't ever do that again." he pats her head then leave. Yukina take his ID on her pocket to take it back to him but she never give it to him.
Yukina come closer to Yukihara and hugged her tightly.
"Are you okay, Yukihara?"
"I-i'm okay.."
[End Of Flashback]
Karatsu's phone suddenly ring. Someone was calling at him.
"Hello?"
"Karatsu! I know it's sunday and you want to rest this day. But i have a bad news to you." Hidashi said.
"What is it?"
"Yukina is missing. and also Yukihara!!"
"What!? Also Yukihara?"
"Yeah! Her parents visited the club to asked me about their daughters. They said. Yukihara escape on their house last night. She left a letter and it said. " This is last time that i will do this, I guess if i die you'll understand why we do this." that's the letter said. What shall we do?" Hidashi's voice is worried.

Karatsu remembered the day he meet Yukihara at the Rooftop. He saved her that time when she's trying to commit suicide by jumping in the rooftop. Yukina noticed him talking with someone so she listened to it.
"Hidashi. Can you meet up with me in school? I know Yukihara was there."
"What do you mean?"
"JUST GO!!" Karatsu shouted then hang up the phone.
Karatsu start preparing his clothes and immediately goes outside. Yukina follows him.
(At St. Lucario Academy)
Yukihara slowly walks in the hallway. Ishida, Fumi and Ayami noticed her.
"Yukihara!? What are you doing here?" Ishida asked.
"Would you like to join with us? A voice lesson with Ishida-kun!" Ayami added.
"What's wrong Yukihara?" Fumi asked as well.
Yukihara ignores them as she goes in the rooftop immediately.
"Let's go back to our lesson. Ayami and Fumi." Ishida looks away from her as he continue his lesson.
Yukihara looks in the sky as she sits on the higher part of the rooftop. looking on the bottom as she saw a empty soccer field.
"Sorry.. Onee-chan... Onii-chan.."
She thinks about her rival (Rin) then smiles
"You'll never meet your rival again.. Rin.."
Karatsu arrived at school with Hidashi. Yukina keep following him.
"Did you see Yukihara?" Karatsu asked
"Ahh.. yeah. she was heading on the rooftop" Ishida replied.
"Thank you!"
"Why? What's wrong?"
"I will tell you later!" Karatsu replied.
Yukina enters the Music club and look at them.
"Yukina.. Is there something wrong between you and Yukihara?"
"Fighting is not good right?" Fumi added.
"We're not fighting. I think Yukihara is tired on everything. I hate my entire family.." Yukina responded.
In the rooftop.
"Karatsu! Yukihara was there." Hidashi pointed his finger on that direction.
"Yukihara!!!!!"
Yukihara noticed him and get shocked and her foot slips and she was going to fall in the ground.
"Kya!!!" Yukihara holds in the side of the wall and Karatsu and holds her right hand.
"Hold on!"
"Let me go! Leave me alone!" Yukihara shouted.
"SHUT UP! YOU IDIOT!! Do you think you can resolve your problem by committing suicide!? Don't be ridiculous! Do you think no one will cry if you die!? You're wrong!" Karatsu said.
"I hate my family! My sister does too! My brother too! We hate our family!!"
Yukihara's parents arrived in the rooftop.
"Yuki...hara." Yuri was shocked and tries to go at Karatsu but Hidashi stopped him.
"Leave it to him, Old man" Hidashi smiles as they look on the situation.
"Yukihara! Me and your father loves you! We finally realized everything! I know you want freedom. we will give it to you now but we want to be your side! Sorry for everything on what we have done to your brother and sister." Yuki cries when looking at them.
"Please! Don't do it!"
Yukihara starts crying as Karatsu finally got her and save her. After hearing those words from their mother Yukina and Akashi (Yukimura) walks away.
"Yukihara.." Yuri and Yuki and hugs her.

"Sorry.. Sorry.. Sorry.." Yukihara hugs back when crying.
"Phew! That was close. I made it in time. Haha. It's a second time you try to committed suicide but i'm always here to save you" Karatsu smiled as he pats her head.
"Onii-chan.. Sorry.."
"If you die. Rin will be sad. She likes playing and teasing with you. You have your family and friends in Scarlet Dream. Let's take our journey together with everyone" Karatsu pats her head.

"Do you still want to hate them, Yukina?" Akashi asked.
Yukina smiles and looks at him.
"If they change and support us, I won't hate them. If not. I hate them. My idiot brother." Yukina replied.
"Hmph! Do your best for your career with Scarlet Dream"
"I know!"
(After 3 days)
[Karatsu's POV]

"Umm.. Yukimura-kun? Are you done already on that project?" Sagiri asked.
"Akashi! Call me Akashi." Yukimura said.
"Akashikyun..!!" Sagiri hugs him tightly
"Hey! What are you doing!?"

"Are you sure about this, Mom?" Yukina asked.
"Ofcourse! Yukina. I need to go overseas. But don't worry we will support you no matter what happen" Yuki hugs her and Yukihara then she looks at Karatsu.
"Karatsu Himegami, right?"
"Ah..Yes!?"
"Please take care of my daughters. I know i can trust you since you save Yukihara twice. Goodluck for your new future." Yuki pats his head.
"Understood!" Karatsu smiles then waves his hand to her.
"You're fit to be Yukina's boyfriend." Yuki laughs as she walks away.
Yukihara and Karatsu remains silence as they look to each other then Yukina punches him in the shoulder.
"Idiot! You had Kisara. So no need to reason to have me, right?" Yukina blushed.
"Ah.. Yeah. you're right." Karatsu looks away.

"We choose this path so we should continue this way right.. Onii-chan! Onee-chan!?" Yukihara smiles.

"Y-yes."
"Then what is your name?"
"I-i'm Tokugawa Natsuko. I'm here to visit you by the order of your sister."
"My sister? That Chihiro?" Hidashi asked.
"Yeah. She wants to teach you about the past and the History of Japan. So you'll know about my Grandfather." Natsuko said.
"I refuse! I prefer playing inside of my house than hanging out with my annoying sister. Tell her that i don't have a time about time. If you want me to know about Tokugawa Ieyasu. I will read it on the internet." Hidashi replied.
"If you want to talk with me about the Warring states era? Maybe next time" He addes.
"Ohh okay.." Natsuko looks down then went outside.
"Such a nuisance ehh?. Talking about the past is just a waste of time"
