- A bird, covered in fresh stitches, perches on the side of the narrow cellar window.
- Wildcard-kun is laying on the floor, looking up at the open dark space surrounding him.
- The one source of light was obstructed by the bird, which prompts him to look at the window.
- "Aye, t'be free. What a wonder...", he mutters in an envious tone.
- As he gets up to scare off the bird, he notices the bird is picking at something on its body: a stitched wound.
- "Oi! Yer gannae tear yerself open if ye keep't'up!", the maid shouts through the window, knowing the bird can neither hear nor understand him.
- "Feck...do whateva.", he says, no longer caring, as he slumps back down onto the floor.
- The cellar door unlocks. It's Jin!
- "I'm here to bail you out, funny cat lady-san! We must act fast, however.", he says, looking behind him constantly while doing so.
- "Jin, my boy. I've 'cepted me fate. Freedom? Hogwash. It jus' ain't gannae hap'in.", he says in a somber tone.
- Jin says nothing, but looks down angrily.
- "Besides, if that scary sibling of yours were to see you here, he woul~"
- Jin angrily walks up to him, and grabs his wrist.
- He has a surprisingly strong grip for someone his age.
- "H-Hey! Wha t'ell are ye~"
- "Mako-niichan is too occupied with something to notice the difference. Please, don't give up! We are out of here, now.", Jin says, pulling him by the arm.
- "B-but~"
- "NOW."
- As the two exit the cellar, Jin says, "You're innocent. I know you are, funny cat lady-san."
- The cat would usually have said no, but this boy, for some reason emitted an aura that made him the perfect fit to be a natural born leader. A soothing, reassuring aura. It was hard to say no to him.
- "T'ank ye, Jin-san.", the maid says, sheepishly smirking.
- "Of course, funny cat lady-san.", beaming happily up at him.
- "I-It's Haru, remember? Ye can call meh Haru, or Abe-san, or wuteva. Nae need f'r t'at ol' name.", he says with a bead running down his temple, hoping he doesn't refer to him by that name in front of a group of people.
- "Ha...uh...Abuhh...uhhh...", Jin tries to say.
- "C'mawn, laddie. Ye got it!", Haru encourages him.
- "Habeeehhh...funny cat lady-san?", he says, giving up.
- "And ye were close, too.", the neko says, lying a little.
- "S-Sorry.", Jin says with a wry smile.
- "Never mind t'at. Can weh be movin'?"
- "Aye.", Jin says happily in his best nekomeido impression as they continue onward.
