Konoha/AH3 Storyline

## Main Storyline

### The Stamp Rally!

After a long day of summer school, Konoha makes her way home when Nazuna approaches her, demanding they finally settle their struggle. It's time to figure out who would be the best for Kamui's attendant. Konoha refuses and she demands a fight, but seeing that she has no other choice she finally gives in.

Once the battle ends, Nazuna declares it's a tie, but Konoha doesn't understand since she clearly won. Rather than linger on it, she wonders why Nazuna doesn't like her so much considering they *both* look after Kamui. They should be able to get along. Nazuna doesn't respond, instead asking her what she came to school for. After Konoha mentions having two classes, she takes delight in only having one class she has to attend for summer school- but it's short lived after Konoha correctly guesses it's for swimming.

She teases Nazuna until Akane joins them, and she suggests that Nazuna work on improving her physical strength if it really bothers her, but Nazuna claims she doesn't need to know this stuff since she will use her celestial power and intelligence to serve Kamui. Akane goes on to scold Nazuna for not being nicer to Konoha, but she tells her that as an enemy clan, she doesn't need to be. They are joined by Heart, who hands the trio a flier for the *Tokyo Arcana Stamp Relay*. She explains how there will be a prize for anyone who manages to arrive at the goal, then brings up how she is planning on joining with Maori and Saki. She also knows that Lilica and Yoriko will be entering too.

Nazuna is inspired to take part in this, deciding that she and Konoha can use this as a way to determine who truly wins between the two of them. Akane drags her away, concerned that she will keep going. As she is yanked away, Nazuna threatens to never forgive Konoha if she doesn't participate. Seeing her mood has lowered, Heart offers to rub and pet Konoha for a couple of minutes, but after she refuses, Heart suggests that she asks Kamui to join her for the stamp relay.

Just then, Kamui arrives to pick her up since she wasn't able to rest at the time. Heart takes off to give them some privacy, and as they begin to head back for home, Konoha thinks about how much she would like to ask Kamui to be her partner, but she's sure she has to do it on her own to make sure it's more meaningful. By this point, Kamui happens to take notice of her behavior and asks if she is alright, causing her to quickly claim she's fine. Kamui decides to believe her for the time being, but informs her that she can always talk to her if she needs anything. Konoha agrees, then brings up that she will be busy the following day.

The next day, Konoha is shocked to see how many people have showed up. She gets in line while lamenting how she was almost late. But now, she isn't sure what to do now- and not seeing Nazuna or Akane she looks around to try to find someone recognizable.

Unknowingly, Kamui is there observing her.

### Zenia is a Bully

Konoha continues to wonder around when she spots Akane and Nazuna. They are a little confused, believing that she has already gotten the first stamp but she admits to not understanding how this works, causing them to ask why she's there...

**To Compete Against You** - She reminds Nazuna that this was her idea. However she would rather just be friendly with Nazuna and work side-by-side with her. Nazuna is too stubborn to accept this, but her mood is better knowing Konoha *is actually trying*. However, Akane doesn't think she entirely understands, and when Nazuna realizes she's right, she angrily tells her off.

**I Want a Prize** -

**Huh....?** - Konoha is unable to recall why she's there, causing both sisters to get annoyed. Akane comments that while she was suspicious of Konoha being clueless- she didn't think it was *that* bad. Nazuna snaps at her, mistaking her forgetful nature as being ignorant and attacks her out of anger.

Akane tries to calm her upset sister, while Konoha watches with confusion, then she goes along to slowly explain the event, saying that it starts at nine and ends at three pm with a total of five checkpoints to visit. Nazuna remains in a foul mood before scolding her sister for wasting their time earlier, getting on the nearby stage to perform. It set them back; and being reminded of the large line Konoha hurriedly rushes back to it.

She gets her first stamp and reads the clue "*\_kebukuro. Hinodechou Park.*" But while she recognizes the park as the location of where she used to live, she is confused by the circle mark and reads it as "*circlekebukuro*" and decides to return to her old home in search of something. She hasn't been there for a long time anyway.

Kamui continues to watch her from a distance, but she expresses concern that Konoha was unable to solve the clue. She watches as Konoha arrives, delighted to see how much everyone enjoys the location and has been using it as a park and playground for children. She finds herself feeling nostalgic however, and thinks about...

**My Training Days** - She came to Tokyo to follow her dream of being Kamui's attendant, but naturally Kamui rejected the offer since she did not believe it was necessary. Her grandmother insisted though, so she lived in this park training day in and day out, hoping to pay Kamui a visit and get her to reconsider. However, she is unable to recall just how long it took before she actually did agree. While it is a good memory, she remembers how much she used to cry when she was refused.

**Miss Kamui's Lap** - After joining Kamui and working with her, it had only been a couple of days before they were given the task to defeat Mildred. But due to her inexperience and desire to protect Kamui, she caused problems and got severely hurt. Kamui pet her and let her rest her head on her lap to calm her down, and happily Konoha enjoyed their time together.

**That Red Scarf** -

Snapping out of her thoughts, Konoha remembers that she has to find the first stamp- but before she can get going, Zenia suddenly appears and demands that she summons Kamui. Konoha refuses to disturb her though, since she is back at home taking the day off from work, but Zenia doesn't listen and tells her to forfeit her stamp card if she won't do it. Konoha refuses and runs away in tears, calling her a bully.

### I Won't Give Up!

By the time she stops running Konoha finds herself by school. She's glad Zenia didn't chase after her, but now she won't be able to get the next stamp. She is joined by Lilica, who offers to lend her an ear if she wants to talk, then she asks why she didn't try to fight Zenia after being updated. Konoha admits that she would rather avoid a physical confrontation if she can help it, and Lilica agrees that Zenia is scary- so she probably would have run too. She then suggests that Konoha just return to the checkpoint later and for the time being she gets another.

While it is a good idea, Konoha points out that the checkpoints hold the next clue, which she doesn't have. Lilica then teasingly asks Konoha why she thinks she's there...

**Are You taking a Walk?** - Lilica questions who would bother coming to school during the summer on a walk, causing Konoha to bring up that maybe she was lonely. When someone walks around school they are bound to find someone else, but this causes Lilica to ask her if she thinks she doesn't have any friends.

**Summer School?** -

**I have no Idea** - Konoha admits to not knowing, and Lilica encourages her to think it through a little more. She tries, bringing up that Lilica never does anything unless it is something fun, and when she is unable to find fun she will go and make some. Lilica is happy that Konoha knows her so well, but when Konoha questions if she plans to blow up the school, Lilica ends up yelling at her. Konoha claims she was only trying to think like her, causing Lilica to question *who* she thinks she is.

After calling Konoha annoying, Lilica points out that the school *is* the second stamp location. Konoha thanks her or the help, but Lilica stops her to point out that she deserves a *thank you* for helping her. Konoha quickly brings up that she doesn't have any money on hand, causing Lilica to hesitantly ask her if she's seen Yoriko. She lost sight of her after accidentally upsetting her. Konoha's blunt response to this causes Lilica to angrily snap at her, Then she makes a comment and feeling better, she takes off.

As Konoha runs to the second checkpoint, Lilica passes Kamui and they exchange a few words.

Arriving to her next stop, Konona remarks upon the line length- although it's not as bad as the beginning line. She comes across Mei-Fang, who explains she is working as the supervisor for the second checkpoint and she stamps her card. Konoha goes over the next clue "*\_erima Amusement Park*", but once again she mistakenly reads it as "circle". Mei-Fang comments on how interesting that method is before noting that she doesn't have her first checkpoint stamp. Frustrated, Konoha explains what happened and how she will return later, but Mei-Fang stops her to reveal that Zenia is at the next destination. As well as a few others. This upsets Konoha, but she comes to the decision...

**I Must Go!** - She has to keep going for the sake of proving herself fit to be with Kamui. She is unhappy since everyone there bullies her -except for Maori- but she refuses to quit.

**No I don't want to go!** -

**I don't know what to do!** - Konoha bursts into tears while trying to figure out why everyone who bullies her happens to be at the very next place she has to go to, but Mei-Fang is unable to help her. She trusts Maori, but she doesn't want to get her involved either. Konoha asks Mei-Fang for help but she tells her she cannot leave her post. But she will try to help her to the extent she can.

She suggests that Konoha wait a little bit before going and offers to let her have some lunch that she prepared for the Professor earlier. Konoha eagerly agrees and she is delighted when she likes it, announcing that Zenia is no longer at the park. Konoha thanks her and asks her to come by the Mansion so that she can repay her, and she agrees. After Konoha leaves, she tells Kamui she can come out now, and she reveals herself, thanking Mei-Fang for the assistance. She would also like to repay her, and she takes off.

### Stop the Petting!

At the park, Konoha finds herself momentarily distracted as she sees how much fun everyone else is having. She reminds herself that she must return to the first checkpoint for the stamp and scolds herself for wasting time. But she is happy knowing the others left and hurriedly gets into the shortened line. After she gets her stamp she reads the clue "*\_lteda Celestial Shrine".*

This time she doesn't get the same notion as before, but she still can't identify it. She feels like she has *heard* the name before, but isn't sure. But for now she won't worry, and she hurriedly returns to her goal until seeing a crowd up ahead. She finds Dorothy putting on a show for everyone and they exchange greetings. Dorothy is happy that she had fun watching her, but she's surprised to see she isn't with Kamui like usual. Konoha explains that it is just them, but she happens to notice how odd Dorothy is acting. She claims it to be nothing, although she warns her that she spotted Zenia earlier.

Konoha is quick to flee in terror, but she gets lost further in the park. She is found by Heart, who approaches with Saki and happily greets her. Konoha explains that she's decided to participate on her own, but when they see how sad she looks, she explains how she got lost and is disappointed by how poorly she's doing. Heart suggests that she tags along with them since they will be heading to the goal next, but Konoha turns down the offer since she still needs the first checkpoint. She refuses to tell them the truth and claims she got lost back then too, so Heart offers to help her and hands their stamp sheet to Saki, promising to catch up later.

With that the duo take off, with Konoha impressed that she didn't get lost. She's glad not to have run into Zenia again, but just then Catherine shows up. She reveals that she saw what happened earlier and intended on lending a hand, but she was busy at the time and Konoha ran away before she could get there. She claims that Zenia didn't mean any harm though, and Heart asks if something happened before offering to pet her again. Konoha refuses, and Catherine brings up the stamp sheet, explaining that nobody is there at the time so she should get into the line. Konoha agrees and gets her stamp, causing the other two to congratulate her.

After Konoha admits not to knowing where the last location is and explains how she was solving the clues- but Catherine initially assumes she was only joking, explaining that the spotted circle isn't meant to be read as part of the clue; then calls anybody who would fall for this type of trick to be stupid. When Konoha doesn't respond, she is shocked realizing that she *wasn't making a joke- she meant it*. Heart admits that she doesn't entirely blame Konoha, so Catherine explains how the clues actually work, allowing Konoha to determine the answer for the next clue, *Alteda Celestial Shrine*.

Before Konoha can leave, Heart tries to convince her to let her pet and rub her, but Konoha continues refusing. She is unable to understand why Heart has such an interest in petting her though, so Catherine suggests that they just hook up later on to pay Heart back for her help. Both girls are unhappy with this, but Konoha agrees to a single pet from Heart right now instead. When Heart refuses to leave her alone though, they get into a fight.

Heart refuses to stop petting Konoha despite this, and explains that she wants this experience to last her a *life time*. Konoha tries to be understanding and apologizes before running away.

### Victory for Konoha!

By the time she escapes Heart, Konoha finds Yoriko and brings up how she met Lilica earlier and recalls what happened. Yoriko wants to see Lilica, but she's still upset and can't bring herself to face her. Konoha manages to convince her to try though, then invites Yoriko to join her at the finish line. Yoriko refuses and decides to wait here a bit longer. Before leaving, Konoha surprisingly remarks on how quiet Mike, her staff has been.

Upon arrival to the Shrine, Konoha happens to realize that nobody else is there. She proclaims herself the winner when she is joined by Nazuna and Akane, reminding her of what was agreed. Nazuna claims that she was stuck with a handicap -her sister- so it isn't fair considering Akane kept stopping to goof off and is a big idiot. Akane pouts and points out how she had fun being with Nazuna, causing her surprise before she claims to hate her.

She is very bitter of losing to Konoha, then chases after her when she heads to the finish line. Konoha suggests they cross the finish line together but Nazuna refuses. They don't have very much time before someone else shows up, but Nazuna won't let Konoha finish unless they both stand a fair chance. They agree to a quick fight to decide who crosses first, but by the time Konoha is declared the winner- it is announced that someone else got the final stamp. The girls are shocked, and Konoha begins to cry while Nazuna weakly tries to apologize for getting in the way. Akane decides it's time for them to go and pulls her along as Konoha continues to cry.

Just then, Kamui shows up to calm her down. She explains that originally she did plan on staying home, but she got worried about Konoha and decided to follow her instead. Along the way she ran into Lilica and Yoriko, who didn't finish the relay; but they did leave hand-in-hand. While Konoha may not have finished her original goal, she was able to help the others, and she had fun, so in the end she shouldn't feel so down. She's still proud of her.

Konoha perks up right away, but she's disappointed in knowing Kamui followed her and she didn't notice. But she's too happy to care, and together they take off.

The next day, Nazuna and Akane wait outside of the school. Nazuna has come early to apologize for how things went; until Konoha and Kamui show up and she hears Konoha bragging about how she *would* have won if they didn't get into a fight. But she *had* to humor Nazuna. Hearing this, Nazuna is shocked. Enraged, she chases Konoha around, threatening her while the other girl is led to tears trying to avoid her, begging Kamui for help.

## Sub Story

### Athletics Festival

Konoha sadly tries to determine what she should do regarding the upcoming Athletic Festival. She has a special bib sewn for her by Kamui, but she will be unable to participate if she doesn't wear the glasses too. Nazuna accuses her of being selfish and calls her a coward, then storms off after telling her to just do it.

After school she is found by Kamui, who questions her poor mood. She claims it's nothing, but when Kamui doesn't believe her, she confesses. Kamui is glad she's so thoughtful, but the time she spent practicing will go to waste if she is unable to participate. To ease her pain, Kamui offers to switch with her, since she will need to wear hers anyway. Konoha offers to make it up to her by sewing her bib, and Kamui agrees.

### Nice Weather Today...

Konoha enjoys the nice warm weather they have been having recently and decides to do the laundry knowing Kamui will be able to sleep well. After finishing, she decides to prepare some tea; but while drinking it she suddenly gets sleepy and falls asleep. Kamui returns home a while later and helps her to bed.

Konoha awakens a bit later to find Kamui petting her. She attempts to get up but Kamui suggests she just takes it easy because she's probably tired from working so hard. Konoha feels badly for not finishing, but she's enjoying their easy-going time and forces herself to give in.

### Playing with Paper

Konoha is saddned by the fact she can't have lunch with Kamui. But she decides to hurry up and eat so that she can go out to play. Once again Nazuna approaches her to demand a duel to settle their battle- much to Konoha's annoyance. She suggests that Nazuna come and play with her outside, but Nazuna quickly rejects by claiming she doesn't like to go outside and play. But she begins to reconsider once she sees how sad Konoha looks; only to express annoyance when she realizes she's already left.

Konoha runs outside and waits to see if Nazuna joins her, but to her disappointment she does not. She wonders if she is still inside and she heads back in to find Nazuna folding paper. Startled, Nazuna asks her why she came back inside and Konoha explains that she reconsidered in order to hang out with her. Nazuna is initially confused, then she outright refuses to teach Konoha how to make origami since she is convinced it'd be better for her to learn. She watches in silence as Konoha tries to teach herself, but after her first try goes so poorly, she snaps at her before showing her the *proper* way to do it.

### Kamui's Affection

Konoha and Kamui eagerly anticipate trying out a brand new curry shop until Konoha discovers they cook onion in the food, so she can't have any. Kamui suggests they just head home, but Konoha insists they stay so that she can at least try it out. Kamui refuses to do that, as it wouldn't be right to eat in front of her. Unless they can both eat, they'll just have to leave. She suggests that they make some curry at home and omit the onion; but in the end neither of them know how to actually make it.

They track down Heart and ask her for help. Kamui mentions that while it might take them a while- but she promises they will learn to make it and eat it together.

### Trivial Matters

Heart brings Konoha a parfait and brings up her plans to make some for Maori and Saki too, while they're busy with some after-class activities. She asks to pet Konoha, but is quickly met with a refusal. Before Konoha can start to eat, she is interrupted by Nazuna, who as usual demands a fight. Heart is quick to interrupt and asks if she can pet her tail, but again she's rejected and scolded for surprising her. Heart offers to make her a parfait, but Nazuna doesn't like to eat any food that's not normal for Japan, and parfaits originate from outside of their region. Konoha argues with her by saying they are really good though, and that she shouldn't decide without trying it first, but this causes them to bicker.

Heart is quick to interrupt the feuding girls and tells them not to fight, then she heads off to make some more. The girls are confused until she returns with a *Heart-ful Japanese-style Parfait*: which is filled with many Japanese things like sweet beans, bean paste, wafers, shaved ice, and several other items. While initially surprised, both girls take a bite and really liking it. They continue to eat and agree not to fight for the rest of the day.

### Zenia!

Konoha is preparing to leave the park when Zenia suddenly shows up. Out of fear she is quick to hide until a child runs into her, so she begins to panic out of fear the child will be harassed by her. Before she can get out to help she watches as Zenia kindly tries to calm the child down and observes its knee to see it has gotten hur. Konoha is shocked by this as the child apologizes for bumping into her. She kindly makes a remark and Konoha uses this as a chance to escape and report what she witnessed to Kamui.

### To the Beach

Konoha, Heart, Kamui, and Lilica arrive to the beach. While Heart compliments the outfit Kamui chose to wear, Konoha decides that today would be the perfect time to show how good she can swim to Kamui. She grabs her floats and runs up to the water but the girls follow after her to mention that she should warm up first, to avoid getting a cramp.

At first things seem fine, but Konoha is quick to get foot cramps and loses consciousness while the waves splash over her. Kamui is quick to use the life buoy they brought with them and she calms Konoha down after she tearfully apologizes for doing something so reckless. She warns her to make sure she does her stretches first, then asks that she always keeps in distance so that she can see her. Konoha promises and thanks her.

### On the Way Home

Konoha plays with Kouta and Koita one day at Maori's when she calls them to tell them how late it is. Konoha decides to head home and apologizes for taking so long but Maori stops to thank her for keeping her sisters occupied. Konoha wishes that she had a big sister like Maori and feels envious that she doesn't, but when Maori questions her, she is quick to lie and take off. She is approached by Kamui, who came to pick her up because of how late she is, and as they hold hands, Konoha realizes that she has no reason to be envious of the twins, because Kamui is only hers.

### Hot Meat Bun

Konoha has just finished shopping when she notices a long line. She decides to stop and grab a meat bun for Kamui, and while waiting for the line to lessen she starts to day dream over how the event will play out. She runs into Catherine, Kira, Mei-Fang, and Mei Ling along the way and in the end she's unable to get the bun, leaving her disappointed as they try to comfort her- except for Kira, who is annoyed she was ignored. Mei-Fang reveals she made some meat buns earlier though, and offers them to Konoha. She thanks her and happily runs off.

### The Aquarium

Kamui brings Konoha to the Aquarium and shows her a dolphin and brings up that a dolphin show will take place later. Konoha has a lot of fun observing everything surrounding them, including the weird-looking Ocean Sunfish and asks if they can eat it. Kamui mentions that she isn't sure if it is edible, then tries to convince Konoha that they can't try to fish for the creatures there because they are meant to be observed.

Konoha is disappointed, since she knows how much Kamui loves to eat fish and thought she would really like it because it's rare. Kamui is happy that Konoha cares about her so much to think about her, but she prefers the rice balls she makes for her anyway. With this they decide to stop for lunch.

## Various Events

*(These are found in the main Game when selecting a location to head to.)*

### Clarice

Instantly, she fawns over how cute Konoha is and she promises to take very good care of her. She tells her that she can't just stay there though, because Kamui doesn't attend that school.

### Kira

Kira is angry with dogs and because Konoha is very dog-like, she believes that by beating her up she would feel better. Konoha doesn't feel this is right, since she has nothing to do with her frustration and takes off.

### Akane

She is upset that her sister, Nazuna has a rival, but she does not. So she demands to have a rival too and begins fighting Konoha. She suggests that she goes to speak to Maori instead and takes off after the battle.

### Fiona

Fiona asks Konoha how she has become a human after being born as a dog - but Konoha tells her that she was never born a dog and mistakes her question for cruelty.

### Lilica

She starts by teasing Konoha, but after she gets a bit too affectionate she gets a little weirded out and tells her to stay away from her. Konoha asks if Lilica will let her use her roller-shoes, but she refuses by saying she never promised such a thing and tells her to stay away. Konoha asks to know why she's so mean to her and they start a fight. It's then she happens to spot the celestial stone and picks it up, offering to trade it for Lilica's skates - but she refuses again and tells her to just go away.

### Eko

Eko is searching for her sisters when Konoha spots her. She feels bad for her and offers to play with her for the mean time and Eko cheers right up. But she wants to play fight, much to her disappointment. She agrees anyway though, and a battle begins. Afterwards, Konoha asks about Eko's unique ability to bring her art to life and because she is so happy and had so much fun, Eko rewards her with one of the stones she found. Eko then leaves to search for her sisters elsewhere.

### Heart

Hearts demands that Konoha drops the stone, as she heard they are very dangerous. She asks to trade it by offering to give a Konoha tummy rub, but a fight ensues instead. She apologizes for not giving it to her and before going, tells Heart that she'd rather get tummy rubs from Kamui.

### Saki

Spotting the Celestial Stone, Saki asks to have it. She really needs it and doesn't have anything to trade for it though. After they battle, Konoha refuses, although she seems to feel a little bad and explains that she really needs it too, to give to Kamui.

### Nazuna

After she comes across her fellow canine-human rival, both girls demand that they have the others Celestial Stone. They both refuse though and decide to settle it with a fight to determine who can claim both stones. After she loses, Nazuna sadly hands over her celestial stone and runs off in tears while Konoha celebrates - discussing how many rubs she can get for the two stones.

### Weiss

She stops Konoha and tells her not to interfere, but tries to kindly do it to avoid being too mean or awkward. She asks to be given the celestial stone she has on her person, but Konoha tells her that she has to give it to Kamui. Weiss refuses to relent however, and she decides to just take it by force. After the fight, Konoha wins, but Weiss is able to swipe it and take off without her even noticing it. Konoha begins to bawl and gives chase after she scolds herself.

### Scharlachrot

Konoha happens to find Scharlachrot and Weiss and hears them discuss how they both had plans of stopping the ultimate weapon. However, Scharlachrot feels embittered by Weiss and how she didn't come for her, like she thought she would. She did what she could for Weiss, but now it's too late. Using her chains she binds her old friend while Weiss tries to reason with her. She asks what she plans to do now, but instead Scharlachrot mentions offhandedly that she could always just kill her now, then herself.

However, someone keeps getting in her way. So before she tends to themselves, Scharlachrot plans to kill Konoha first. After besting her in a duel, Scharlachrot demands to know why Konoha insists on getting in her way and the stones go off to awaken Ragnarok, the ultimate Weapon. Konoha, knowing that she must stop it quickly approaches the ultimate weapon and breaks it down, effectively ridding it useless and causing it to vanish in mid-air as she scolds it for trying to destroy Japan.

In the alternate path, Konoha shows up on location, having sensed more stones. Scharlachrot decides that with her two, she just needs them to get Ragnarok up and running. Konoha refuses to let this happen, realizing that she may be without tummy rubs if she was to get their ultimate weapon running and she battles Scharlachrot. Afterwards she steps in to stop the weapon after her stones are taken from her and before the countdown can end, she defeats Ragnarok and manages to destroy it.

### Ending

Konoha returns home to work on something, but she struggles. Persistent, she continues to work, trying to hurry before Kamui returns.

Meanwhile, Kamui voices her concerns with Konoha lately, as she has tea with Maori. She mentions how much time she spends in the attic lately and how she returns with an injury every time she comes out of it. Maori is sure everything is fine though, and says goodbye to Kamui when she decides to head back.

She arrives to find Konoha up in the attic. Konoha greets her before revealing what she worked so hard to make: two dolls, one of herself and one of Kamui. She asks her to accept them and explains to her that Maori helped her finish them. She made them to make up for all the trouble she feels she probably causes Kamui, and mentions that she may not like such things but hopes she will take them anyway. Kamui gently chastises her by saying that Konoha worked very hard to make them, and she takes the plush dolls while thanking her. Konoha promises to always be by her side, forever and ever.
