Rogan wakes up and sees Himari by the window, writing something. He walks toward her...
Rogan: Good morning.
Himari: Good morning, Rogan.
Rogan: What are you doing?
Himari: Writing a letter to my mother.
Rogan: A letter?!
Himari: Yeah.
Rogan: I didn't know we could… Who delivers it?
Himari: At the beginning of every month, a man comes. You give him the letter and the address, and he delivers it in his own way… Don't tell me you've never heard of this before.
Rogan: No, I haven't.
Himari: But… there's a catch.
Rogan: What is it?
Himari: He reads the letter before taking it. You're not allowed to mention our location, what we're doing here, or anything about the Pyarod Army.
Rogan: That's fine. The important thing is that our families know we're safe. Alright, I'll let you finish.
Himari: No problem.
Rogan: Somiko!!! Where's Somiko?!
He goes to Somiko's room but doesn't find him—or any of their friends. He calls out to Himari...
Rogan: Where are the Explosion fighters?! Don't tell me they haven't returned yet?!
Himari: That's impossible!
Rogan: We have to find them.
He and Himari rush out. As they walk for a while, they see someone lying on the ground, asleep. They approach him...
Rogan tries to wake him up, and he suddenly jolts awake, startled and frightened.
Trainee: Stay back! Stay back! What is this?!
Rogan: What's wrong with you?! What happened?!
Himari: Forget him! Let's keep going!
They continue walking, only to find more and more trainees asleep on the ground every few meters. They search tirelessly for Somiko and finally find him. Rogan shakes him awake...
Somiko wakes up suddenly and screams at Rogan—only for Rogan to scream back at him!
Somiko: Stop it! Stop it! Get away!
Rogan: Somiko!! What's wrong?! Tell me what happened?!
Somiko: The training… The training, Rogan…
Rogan: What happened during the training?!
Somiko: Our trainer, Zordo, is a human demon! As soon as we arrived at the place behind that waterfall, he gave each of us an iron ball. Then, he grabbed a metal rod, heated it up, and said, "If you can't do it by the second try, I'll burn you with this."
Somiko: I think I tried more than ten times before I finally succeeded… But it didn't end there. When we finished, he looked at us and said, "Now, it's time for you all to blow my head off."
Somiko: We all stared at him in shock… Then he screamed, "Come on!!" So we all charged at him… And now, a quarter of us are in Pyarod's Medical Center!
Rogan bursts into laughter… then Himari joins in!
Somiko: What's so funny?! Look at my hands!
They look—his hands are covered in more than ten burns… but instead of stopping, Rogan and Himari laugh even harder!
Somiko walks ahead, irritated, while the two continue laughing behind him...
