## Event Timeline

### Pre Event

Tokyo Kingdom is build but fails within the first view years of its development. Being nothing but an expensive construction site, Dragon Gate Capital buys the land and finishes some building, but the corruption and criminal activity in the city grows.

Investigations of Section Two, confirm that Dragon Gaten Capital is financed in secret by the Chinese Union. As Tokyo Kingdom becomes a separated stronghold for crime, a powerful mafia called "Dragon Gate (Ryuumon)" proudly claims the land. Dragon Gate is opposed to Nomad, which is more aligned with the UFS.

Kiryu Sabato of Nomad sold some of their research data and DNA samples to their competitor, Dragon Gate active in Tokyo Kingdom, in secret. Dragon Gate which is connected to the Chinese Union, creates an Oboro (Clone) and puts her in charge of the Dragon Gate Hideout, she dreams of world conquest. Capturing a young female Taimanin, she tortures her and drives her into suicide after three days. Knowing that based on the data of Sabato, it could force a powerful transformation. The now loyal, artificial demon, Saya is born.

Three male, unnamed Taimanin, are sent to Tokyo Kingdom to investigate the local mafias.

Edwin Black, of Nomad, tried to re-take the research data from the Dragon Gate Mafia but is forced to retreat after fighting Saya, which damaged him strongly. Black takes over the body over a high ranked oni named Sokushitsuki and observes the situation. However, also informs Saya about three male Taimanin, currently in Tokyo Kingdom which, if killed, could lure even stronger people like Asagi and Sakura to the city. He also called for "Oboro", the one that had died in the Chaos Arena, which he revived as a Vampire to support him, as he remains within the body of Sokushitsuki.

Contact with the three male Taimanin breaks up for a week. In truth, they had already been killed by Dragon Gate.

### Event

In the year 2076, Asagi, Sakura and Yatsu Kuro are sent in by Yamamoto Nobushige to investigate the disappearance of the three male Taimanin and if the mafia Dragon Gate is responsible. Asagi and Sakura work as fake prostitutes to collect information. Meanwhile, Yatsu Kuro investigates with the help of Section Two and learns about the connection of Dragon Gate Capital and the Chinese Union. Asagi and Sakura, run into Saya which only observes them on the street the next day, as they learned from some of the Dragon Gatemembers that the three Taimanin have been killed. Feeling uneasy from the aura of the girl Saya, the sisters return to the hideout. Updating him on the state of things, Yamamoto orders a retreat, as yesterday servers of the government on this investigation had been hacked by an unknown party. Kuro, makes his way from Tokyo to the bridge to get Asagi and Sakura in one hour.

A military hit squad is sent out by Dragon Gate, and the sisters jump out of the hideout before it explodes. Landing in the streets, they encounter the Rakshasa demon, Sokushitsuki which does not reveal if he works for Dragon Gateor another faction. Asagi fights Sokushitsuki, and Sakura runs ahead but enters a fight with Saya on her own, losing. Asagi is poisoned by a needle of Sokushitsuki and is forced to escape, instead of fighting further. Reaching Saya, Asagi fights Saya, but is defeated by her strength and the poison still in her body. The bridge connecting Tokyo and Tokyo Kingdom is strongly damaged by an explosion from Dragon Gate, to stop any help from the outside.

Asagi, Sakura are both captured by Saya and Oboro (Clone), that became a high ranking leader of Dragon Gate. Yatsu Kuro arrives and fights with Sokushitsuki outside. Kuro is able to kill him, but Black escapes the dying Oni body and takes over the immortal body of Kuro to heal faster. Meanwhile, the sister's Body Modification is strengthened, and they reach their breaking point. While being abused for a long time, at a public stage. Oboro demands that Asagi kills herself to ensure a transformation into a demon weapon like Saya, instead Asagi uses the Blade given to her to slash at clone Oboro, with a shallow cut. Saya attacks Asagi but Sakura shields the attack and is pierced, Asagi thinking Sakura had died awakened to her demonic powers, and kills Saya in one hit. However, views Saya still as just another victim.

Clone Oboro escapes, with her wounds, but encounters Edwin Black that left the body of Kuro and the Oboro from Taimanin Asagi 1. Clone Oboro is killed by her "true self" for good. Both Black and Oboro recover the research data for the UFS/Nomad afterward, but Kuro is left alive and returns to the Igawa sisters. Kuro calls a rescue helicopter and Sakura can be stabilized. All three return to Gosha Village afterward.

### Post Event

Dragon Gate never recovers from the death of one of their leaders and slowly declines. Nomad takes more territory in Tokyo Kingdom.

DNA samples of Black, still, made their way into Chinese Union's hand and lead to the creation of the Ghoul (Artificial) and High Ghoul.

Multiple clones created from DNA samples of Asagi. Work as slave prostitutes or soldiers for Dragon Gate, most of these Asagi (TN Clones) are killed later on in Taimanin Asagi The Nightmare. One clone is able to survive in the Online Universes as "the Asagi (Clone)", which is taken to the UFS (Task Force G) given Cyborg limbs and brainwashed. At some point, this clone becomes her own person. Research data of Saya and left over clones turn up in the Online Universes. Reproduced Saya a failed clone stuck in the demonic form, and Saya Neo a further developed creation, Resurrection is a pure android from battle data. Neo data also is in turn used in the creation of Angers.

The data collected on Inner Demons push Black possibly further, into any ways that he could corrupt Asagi. Asagi is able to transform into Demon Asagi from this point on. It is suggested that the poison dart/needle that hit Asagi allowed her to even transform in the first place.

## Trivia

* Both TABA and RPGX, have this event play out as it is, but Dragon Gate is not fully irrelevant yet and still shares some of their powers with other forces.
* In Action Taimanin, given that Sakura is much younger and Saya has not appeared or mentioned, it is unclear if the event played out.
* The event has been retconned with Taimanin Asagi 3, and it had been confirmed by the author that it plays in 2076.
