The trio were having there usual slacking off session over at a near by stream, it was quiet but fast flowing body of water, hidden away from the campsite but it wasn't far away. Shungo usually spent his summer traveling and camping with his family so it wasn't a surprise that he would know the area. "Hey you guys we haven't even gotten any fire wood, let alone chop them..." Tori said to the two other boys who was in the water. Shungo with a net and Yuuya with a fly fishin rod. The three were pretty much in there fishing uniforms, with Tori sitting next to a bucket that already was splashing with Two fishes. "oh we got lots of hours before sundown we can find it then, right now I want me some fresh clean natural dinner" Shungo replied waiting for Yuuya to pull in another fish. " I guess your right, but ...we will need a fire to cook the fish, I can't believe you forgot to pack food Yuuya" Tori argued in a childish way somewhat pointing the finger at Yuuya. " hey listen I'm fixing the problem arent I and this way we don't need to ask the girls to share with us" Yuuya said and casted the line onces more. "yeah... okay...just help me get the fire wood later...we didn't even set up our tents yet..jsut a couple more and then we are good to go" Tori mentioned as then he noticed his two friends stopping to take a look at another visitor. "who can that be?" Tori said spotting a young women sit down on the other side to sketch some scenery of the nice day.

"Hey I know here isn't she that new English teacher?" Yuuya said as the boys just stared across the water to see her. Natsuki removed a sketch book from her backpack and started drawing the scenery "Ayame is always late...isn't she" Natsuki said as she begun to draw the scenery.

Ryo had arrived at his office the next morning and walked in and saw everyone up and about doing their jobs and he went into his office and hit his playback on his telephone to play the messages he had and the first one was from the old man who had showed him the G4 armor and he said," So I hope you were impressed by G3 and G2 yesterday during their battle. I know you must have many more questions you would want answered, but we need to test something. If you can please go outside at two a clock there will be a limo waiting to pick you up, then you will be given are location so you will be able to come whenever needed without a escort." Understanding the message Ryo looked at the clock and saw that it was two so he rushed down to the outside of the precinct and he walked towards the limo and got inside it.

Being escorted to the headquarters of the organization wasn't as nervous as it was the first time. While they were driving Ryo thought," What will the other two be like, I hope they aren't brats." He then remembered his brothers and he thought," Never mind I hope they are." Arriving at the headquarters Ryo walked into the testing area like before and saw the men sitting around and a orange colored armor similar to G4 shooting in a target range and he said," Ok so like before on the message you want to see my strength?"

Rei was able to get Natsumi to stop yelling at Etsuko, and the green haired girl was still angry somewhat. "You should have told us before hand that you brought those other tents along...why didn't you?" Etsuko was still a little nervous. "Well...I just wanted everyone to bring their own if they wanted...some people prefer those old fashioned kind of tents to the new ones..." Natsumi's eyes twitched again. "Are you calling me old fashioned?! Next you'll be saying my fashion sense sucks!" Etsuko just smiled nervously. "W-Why are you so touchy right now?" Another round of shouting started and Rei again was trying to mediate, though the expression on her face showed that she was in pain from her headache.

Tsukiko looked on, still concerned. Rei-san has been having those headaches ever since...well, shortly after my accident from what she tells me...it's kind of strange...She needs to rest, in any case. Tsukiko got up from the log she was sitting on and approached Rei, putting a hand on the purple haired girl's shoulder. "Rei-san...go ahead and rest...you look like you need it." Tsukiko still said this in a low voice, but it wasn't as quiet as before. Turning her head to her friend, Rei noticed her concern and nodded before heading to her tent, which she had set up beforehand.

This left Tsukiko with Natsumi and Etsuko, with Natsumi not noticing that Rei just left. "Natsumi-san? Natsumi-san...Listen!" Raising her voice, Tsukiko caught Natsumi's attention as the green haired girl looked a bit shocked by her friend suddenly raising her voice. "We came on this trip to relax...please don't let these small things ruin it for us..." Natsumi looked down at the ground before looking back at her black-haired friend. "Ok...I'm sorry, Tsukiko..." Letting out a small giggle, Tsukiko reassured her friend. "Don't worry, Natsumi-san. I'm not mad at you. So, uh...do any of you need any help?" Natsumi shook her head as did Etsuko, though they only did so because they didn't want Tsukiko to overexert herself. The black-haired girl sighed. "Okay...I'll just go back to my spot, then."

As Tsukiko walked back over to her sitting spot, Etsuko couldn't contain her excitment. "This is great! Look, she's already feeling better!" Her joy was dampened slightly as her thoughts when to her other friend. "Rei, though...I noticed she was in pain..." Natsumi gave a playful pat on her friend's back. "Cheer up...she'll feel better. Tsukiko already does..."

"Hey I know here isn't she that new English teacher?" Yuuya said as the boys just stared across the water to see her. Natsuki removed a sketch book from her backpack and started drawing the scenery "Ayame is always late...isn't she" Natsuki said as she begun to draw the scenery.

In another part of the forest, a white haired woman was making her way through the worn paths that had been made by other camp goers over the years. She had a serious look on her face, and the tranquil scenery didn't seem to change her attitude any. Soon, she came to the stream where Natsuki was and saw that the black-haired woman was drawing the surrounding area on a sketch book. Hissing under her breath, the woman walked up to Natsuki. "What are you doing?!" The woman then spotted Tori and the others across the water and lowered her voice so they wouldn't hear. "Natsuki! Why are you wasting time doing this?! The orders were for you to meet us at the site, but instead I get a call back saying you're going to enjoy the scenery?! This isn't a vacation!"

Being escorted to the headquarters of the organization wasn't as nervous as it was the first time. While they were driving Ryo thought," What will the other two be like, I hope they aren't brats." He then remembered his brothers and he thought," Never mind I hope they are." Arriving at the headquarters Ryo walked into the testing area like before and saw the men sitting around and a orange colored armor similar to G4 shooting in a target range and he said," Ok so like before on the message you want to see my strength?"

G2 had been destroying the targets in his sight with great accuracy, nailing them close to the center each time. Hiroshi wasn't happy with his performance, though. "Tch, I'm off. I can usually get them dead center." Looking out the window, he could see Ryo speaking to Iwao. "Oh? Who's this?"
Iwao looked at Ryo with those same wild eyes he had given Hiroshi before. "Yes, Ryo-kun. We want to see how your abilities are compared to G2. We would have liked to do a comparison with G3, but the user is out on assignment. The data we gather will lead to better research for the other two units." Taking another puff from his pipe, he pointed to the training area again. "I bet G2's waiting to see his new partner, so get to it."

Ryo walked in the direction of the testing area and saw his armor and G2 and said," Hello." Walking over to G4 Ryo stood into the armor and then the assistance said," Are you in?" Ryo nodded and they locked the armor into place. Being handed his helmet Ryo placed it infront of his head and the back came out and he placed his face completely in and the back formed locking the helmet in place.

Ryo walked off the armor's platform and said," Well whenever you are ready I am prepared, and remember I am not going to hurt you." Ryo took a fighting stance and said," Ok you make the first strike."

Seeing a white haired woman talking to their English teacher, Yuuya's curiosity took over. “Hmm, a new transferred teacher, the gym wall crumbing down and now a cold looking woman, what an interesting match.†He turned around, shoving the fishing pole to Shungo, and whispered, “I’m going over to listen to what those two are talking about.â€

Just as he was about to stand up, he got dragged by down by Tori. “Eavesdropping isn’t nice, now leave them alone and let’s back before they worry about us.†Yuuya complained, “Eh... It might have something to do with the gym incident though.†With a forced smile, Tori said, “We. Are. Heading. Back. Okay?â€

Both Yuuya and Shungo sighed and muttered in unison, “Yes, yes, captain.†The three picked up the bucket of fishes and the pile of firewoods that Tori gathered alone and hiked back towards the camp site.

Natsuki looked up at Ayame and just showed her the picture she's been sketching. " Im sorry, HQ didn't tell me the exact location due to the classified lock, so I decided if I was in the area you find me" Natsuki said and flipped the book to a close " I'm sorry I've wasted your time and I know that you don't like me too much, but could you at least pretend to work with me?" her phone then rang and she answered " yes...okay" She then looked over to Ayame again and waited for her to lead the way " The G3 system is at the site now"
....................

Tori Arrived at the camp with the other two, "I'm going to go and stack the fire wood you two can go rest and prepare the food" Tori said as the other two nodded and left. Natsumi made sure to be away when Tori came back, Sighing he just stacked the wood, but notice that Tsukiko was at a nearby log. "might as well try" Tori said quietly the approached the very quiet girl " hey Tsukiko how are you doing?" He hid something behind his back then reveal a flower and gave it to the girl "I was keeping it for Natsumi but she'll probrably just destroy it, beside you looking like you need some cheering"

Meanwhile, Mai, who had been searching for a source of freshwater, somehow found that she was not able to hear the sounds of rushing water. Instead, she just noticed the path fading, winding to an unfamiliar part of the forest. "I hate to admit this, but I think I'm lost," Mai sighed, putting down another sizeable rock to mark her path as she proceeded with the path. However, upon following the fading trail, she would eventually stumble upon something she has never seen before: a cave in the middle of the forest. "Well hellooo.....this is new..." she mumbled to herself, approaching the cave cautiously. As she got close, she noticed that the sides of the cave were rather smooth, as if it was really intended to be an entrance. Pulling out a Swiss army knife from her pocket, she opened up one of the blades and cut away a portion of the vines covering the sides of the cave, revealing a symbol that was etched on the side of the cave, one she knew all too well. "That is....!" Mai gasped, somehow recognizing the symbol: a hornlike emblem with the horns spread out into three sections each. At the same time, she heard a sort of howl echo throughout the area along with the wind. So much for a fun camping trip....I better head back to camp..... Mai concluded to herself, following the trail of rocks she left behind as she headed back to the campsite.

Tsukiko was again lost in her own thoughts, still concerned about Rei and her headaches. Poor Rei-san...she's been suffering as well...but no one is helping her...I need to check to see how she's doing... Before she could get up, however, Tori arrived and started to talk to her.

"Hey, Tsukiko, how are you doing?" He hid something behind his back then reveal a flower and gave it to the girl "I was keeping it for Natsumi but she'll probably just destroy it, besides, you looking like you need some cheering up."

Tsukiko was a bit skeptical at first. Tori-san isn't just playing a prank on me, right? "...what's this for?" Tori just laughed slightly. "I'm not going to play a prank on you. I just see someone who looks a little down is all." After hearing this, Tsukiko took the flower and blushed slightly as she spoke. "T-Thank you, Tori-san...I just haven't been the same since...well...you know..." Another chuckle came from Tori. "What do you mean? I think you being quiet like this has made you cuter...it's kinda better to be around someone that's nice and quiet...don't tell Natsumi that, she'll hurt me, heh heh..." This brought a small giggle from Tsukiko. "She can be pretty loud, can she? ....don't flatter me like that, Tori-san...I don't deserve it..." Tori seemed a bit puzzled by this. "Why not? You're like her opposite, so quiet..." A frown developed on Tsukiko's face. "...I wasn't always like this, remember? Before the accident, I used to be like Etsuko-chan...it was...my sister who was the quiet one..." Tori started to blush at the mention of Tsukiko's sister. "Oh, you mean the one I had the crush on? Haha, you're just like her now...then again, you are twins."

Tsukiko seemed...offended by Tori's comment about her sister. "...don't talk about her so lightly, Tori-san...it's disrespectful to her..." In response, Tori became a bit more serious. "I'm not lying about that...everyone liked her, just like we like you...you're the reason why we're mostly out here. I should be practicing for the playoffs, but the gym is trashed...this is a little stress-relieving though." The black-haired girl's face looked shocked after hearing this, surprised about this revelation. I...I knew they were doing this for me, but...I never realized that they cared about me that much...I've...been so selfish... Tsukiko then bowed. "I'm sorry, Tori-san...I've been absorbed so much in my own grief that I didn't realize the lengths all of you have gone for me...I thank you, Tori..." Tori was speechless about this display and was silent for a few seconds. "Geez...I really don't know how to respond to that, heh, your so cute when you are grateful and polite. You don't have to thank us...you probably don't remember, but we were friends when we were younger and we are friends now...unless that was your sister I was talking too, heh. This twin thing can be a bit confusing, haha." Tsukiko giggled and corrected Tori. "It was me, Tori-san...Amaya wore her hair clip on the right side and I wear mine on my left...she was so shy when she was younger..." Tsukiko then remembered that she was going to see Rei and check on her. "Excuse me, Tori-san...I need to check on Rei-san."

"I understand. I was gonna go get the firewood ready, anyway. It was nice talking to you, Tsukiko-chan...I enjoyed it." Tsukiko again blushed slightly. "Um, I enjoyed it too...I'll talk to you later Tori-san..." With that she got up from her sitting spot and headed for Rei's tent as Tori looked on. "Hmm...she's a nice girl..." Tsukiko soon reached Rei's tent and opened it, only to see her friend resting on the ground in a sleeping bag. "Rei-san? I'm just here to check on you...are you feeling any better?" Rei looked at her friend and forced a smile on her face. "I'm fine, Tsukiko-chan. I just didn't get much rest last night..." Tsukiko didn't buy it and took a seat next to her friend. "...I'll stay here with you, Rei-san...it's the the least I can do since you've helped me so much..." Rei looked as if she was going to protest, but only thanked her friend for being with her. "Thank you..." Tsukiko just shook her head. "That's what friends are for, right?"

Natsumi, meanwhile, had come out of hiding so that she wouldn't have to deal with Tori. She then bumped into Etsuko, who had a mischievous look on her face. "Why are you hiding? Are you afraid of Tori-san? Or is it something else?" Natsumi looked irritated. "No! I just don't want to beat him up...for Tsukiko's sake...where is she anyway?" Etsuko pointed to Rei's tent. "She went in there after talking with Tori...she seems to be checking on Rei-san." Natsumi's eyes suddenly shot open after hearing this. "W-What?! Tori spoke to Tsukiko?! Why did-" Natsumi noticed that Etsuko was still giving her that look and changed the subject to Rei. "Still has that headache, huh? Poor girl..." Natsumi was shaken out of this when she spotted Mai returning to the campsite. "Oh, so you came back. I don't know why you were searching for water...Tori and the others found a stream...anyway, you look worried, what's up?" Etsuko was taken aback a bit by Natsumi's tone of voice. She's not yelling? Must be the air...it must be mellowing her out... Unbeknown to everyone at the camp site, something was circling overhead...waiting for the perfect time to strike.

Natsuki looked up at Ayame and just showed her the picture she's been sketching. " Im sorry, HQ didn't tell me the exact location due to the classified lock, so I decided if I was in the area you find me" Natsuki said and flipped the book to a close " I'm sorry I've wasted your time and I know that you don't like me too much, but could you at least pretend to work with me?" her phone then rang and she answered " yes...okay" She then looked over to Ayame again and waited for her to lead the way " The G3 system is at the site now"

Ayame just gave her colleague another cold stare and proceeded to lead the way to the site. "What we've been able to find is rather intriguing...there are numerous symbols and what appears to be an ancient language of some sort...we're trying to decipher it now." Making their way down the fading paths, it wasn't long before the site came into view, that of a cave. Entering the cave, Ayame noticed that a portion of vines at the entrance had been cut away, revealing the horn-like symbol. "Looks like we may have witnesses...we better hurry up then, before they start to come back..." Going further inside the cave, Ayame saw her other colleagues uncovering more symbols from the rock walls. She called over one of the men and he brought a stone tablet that looked worn with numerous characters in a strange language on it. "We also found this tablet...I heard you studied a little on this, Natsuki...what do you make of it?" Ayame then handed her colleague/rival the tablet and waited for her answer.

Ryo walked off the armor's platform and said," Well whenever you are ready I am prepared, and remember I am not going to hurt you." Ryo took a fighting stance and said," Ok you make the first strike."

Hiroshi seemed a bit offended by having to face G4. What, they think me and Natsuki aren't good enough to fight against the Unknown? Well, I'm going to show them that this G2 armor is stronger than it looks. Apparently, Hiroshi missed the memo that this was a test to gather data and further enhance his suit...though the professor never mentioned that detail to him, either. Taking a fighting stance, G2 suddenly lunged towards G4 and delivered a punch aimed for the black armored rider's head.

Mai, whose assignment had been to scout the area, walked back into camp with a forlorn look on her face. God....how am I supposed to tell everyone that an Unknown may be lurking nearby... she frowned, fiddling with the Swiss Army Knife in her hand as she began to approach a nearby log to rest. Before she can do so, however, she was stopped by Natsumi, who inquired about her worried look. Looking up to face the two girls standing nearby, Mai gave the two a fake smile. "No.....Nothing's wrong. Just went the wrong way while looking for water," Mai lied, hiding the fact that she found not water -- the Trio already did so -- but a mysterious cave with even stranger symbols.

Natsumi was a bit skeptical of Mai's answer. Mai...you're lying to me, aren't you? I should know...people seem to love doing that to me. "Well, the last thing we want is one of us to get lost around here...so be more careful next time..." If Natsumi sounded concerned, it was only for Tsukiko's sake...well, that's what she would tell you anyway if you asked. "I still have a tent to pitch, I'll talk to you later, Mai." Natsumi was still stubborn about her tent and also didn't want to drag the point further, as she felt a little upset with the younger girl's actions. I know she's not even part of the Brigade...but still...what is she hiding? Etsuko stayed put, however, wanting to comfort Mai. "It's okay, Mai-chan. I'm glad you made it back safely...ask one of us to go with you the next time you go out, alright?"

Tsukiko, meanwhile, was still in Rei's tent, sitting by her friend and keeping her company, saying a few things to her now and then. Tsukiko suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest again, like the time when the Tortoise Unknown appeared. No...please...why now...this was supposed to be a time of rest. Rei, of course, became concerned and shot up from her sleeping bag, despite her headache. "Tsukiko-chan! Do you want me to get one of the others?" The black-haired girl shook her head. "No...I just need to get some fresh air...lay back down, Rei..." Getting up, Tsukiko exited the tent and went to a nearby tree, using it as support. This of course, drew the attention of Natsumi, who was nearby. "Tsukiko, you're having another one of your attacks, aren't you? Damn it...and you were doing so well..." Then, for some reason, the pain stopped as quickly as it came and it left the frail girl puzzled. What's going on? They attacked right away the last two times...what's this one waiting for?

Feeling better, she reassured Natsumi. "I'm fine now, Natsumi-san...just needed to come out for a little bit, heh." She then noticed Etsuko talking with Mai, seeing that the younger brown haired girl looked distressed about something. ...she hasn't been that social with us...of course, I haven't been so either...I know I should worry about potential Unknown, but I'll take care of it when the time comes...they aren't laying a finger on my friends... "Natsumi-san, can you tell Rei-san I'll be right back? I need to take care of something." Still a little worried, Natsumi watched as Tsukiko went over to talk to Mai and the green-haired girl went to talk to Rei before going back to pitch her tent. Tsukiko...has changed some...she used to be selfish, but now...she's more liker her sister... Walking up to Mai and Etsuko, Tsukiko had her attention on Mai as she spoke. "Mai-chan...if there is anything you want to talk about...you can tell me and the others...you may not feel like it, but I consider you as a friend. You helped so much with this trip that you shouldn't isolate yourself...I should know..." Etsuko just stayed silent, not wanting to interrupt this scene. It's so good to see a friendship start...this trip has done so much good! Nothing can ruin it! Etsuko didn't know what would happen later though, or she wouldn't have been so optimistic...
