Shadow's Back.Akira and Aya are in 'Bar Still' when Kengo appears, demanding to know why Aya is accepted as a comrade and he isn't. Annoyed, Akira points out that he can't bring someone who is a nuisance/useless in battles. Angry by the rejection, Kengo walks away and gets into a fight with a few guys, saving Haruka (from ep1) in the process (who was being bullied). After the fight, he leaves Kengo behind because "there are times that someone wants to be left alone". Meanwhile, Akira lies on the grass and Aya tries to persuade him to apologize to Kengo since he's always there for him...
