Well, here we are. The Duelling League. Dean was really excited when he first heard about it, mostly due to all the Golems he read about, though they're called strange names like mechas and Super Robots here. Personally, I thought this was just like that fighting game show that Duo tricked us into participating once. I told Dean about this, but I don't think he was really listening after he saw a picture of that Xeno-something or whatever they called it. Honestly, he can still be such a kid even after all that we've been through.

No, I'm being unfair to him. The truth is, it wasn't just the Golems that caught his eye when the letter first came. There was a name included in that invitation, the name of a person we thought we would never meet again, but whom Dean never gave up on...

And now we're here. And somehow, so is that person. I don't know how I really feel about this. On one hand, I was overjoyed and my tears just kept on flowing when we met again, and I wasn't the only one. I guess it must have looked funny from the outside, but we didn't care since our hearts were so flooded with relief.

However, a small part of me felt a pang of something else. Partly jealousy, but mostly bafflement. Especially after I learned that they brought in both of them. I don't quite get how that one worked. I asked some of the other people around, and they just pointed at this dark-skinned pony-tailed martial artist and the red-headed albino he was having lunch with.

In any case, it's great to have a good friend return, even if it does make my life a lot more complicated again, but that's all part of the fun I suppose. I'm still not sure what I think about having to fight in front of so many people. Honestly, it makes me feel all jittery inside, and I don't understand why some of us aren't allowed Mediums, but I plan to give everyone a good show with my Acrobatic Shooting. With my speed, a little luck, and a few extra bullets snuck in before whoever I'm facing has a chance to fight back, I might even get a championship. Maybe that will finally get Dean to notice my feelings for him.
