## Plot

A boy woke up from his room, had breakfast with his family and went out saying that today is going to be different.

Neo Alliance discussed about recruiting new members for the coming war and battles. Cross suggested recruitment from several gyms, but Ryoma said that they're looking any kind of people, not just those who rely on muscle and strength. Whizaru suggested interviews, but Ryoma didn't anyone to leak the true location of the base. Ryoma suggested they use a billboard. Eyes refuses as not only it is risky and they can't afford one. Ryoma asks Icea for an idea. But she was nowhere to be seen. Cross asks where is Icea. Whizaru tells them she is visiting a family and babysitting someone for today.

Icea walks to Cerebal Street where she'll meet Sora's family. The mother was thankful of Icea for visiting and taking care of their daughter. Icea asks where Sora is, she told her Sora went to apply for a job. Sora's parents soon left their daughter under Icea's care. Later at night, Sora returns home, unable to get a job. He finds Icea and his sister in the living room. Sora hugs Icea and thanks her for visiting. Later, DarkArmoras appeared at the house and attacked. Icea fends of the DarkArmoras. Sora hides along with his sister. After Icea defeats the remaining DarkArmoras, Icea called Cross about the recent attack. Later, Icea tells Sora to pack up because she wants them to change locations in case the DarkArmoras come after her or they attack here again. Soon, Sora's parents understood and moved out of their house. Before getting in the car, Sora requests to join Neo Alliance. Icea was reluctant at first, but as recalling the call earlier from Cross that they need new members. Icea accepts. Sora says goodbye to his family. Icea and Sora walks to the mountain.

At the base, Ryoma welcomes Sora to Neo Alliance. Cross tells Sora that his training starts tomorrow. Whizaru escorts Sora to his room. Sora was pleased with his new place. He finds interesting things about the base such as the base is hidden inside a mountain and has several buildings.

Sora wakes up and finds the others in the lounge room. He eats his breakfast and goes down to the ground building to start training. Cross presents Sora a variety of weapons. Sora picks a key-shaped sword. Whizaru explains the weapon he chose has various forms but it'll take Sora some time to get used to them. Cross trains Sora for hours. At first it was difficult, considering Cross' level. But Sora quickly rose up to be a great warrior.

Suddenly alarms blares, the computers shows that several battalions of DarkArmoras are attacking Neohattan City. The team moves out. Sora sees the large numbers of DarkArmoras. Cross tells him that it's ok to be afraid but they'll have to overcome their fears eventually. They then fought the DarkArmoras.
