Benjamin decided to walk and around the Plaza while Homura wasn't there, he have plenty of time to go around the stores or eat something.

While he were sitting in the bench drinking a milkshake, Benjamin started to hear music… Very good music in fact! From what he can hear, it looks like a mixture of rock and opera.

'Hey I liked the rhythm,' Jack comments.

"Me too, I wonder were this music is coming from?" Benjamin asked.

He tried to carefully listen to where this awesome music is coming from. Benjamin stood up and start to follow this sound; He kept walking and each time the sound was increasing and increasing until he found where this sickly and awesome sound was coming from: the abandoned theater right in front of them.

"Hey let's see who is doing this?" Benjamin ask Jack.

'Hell yeah! Let's enter.' He exclaims excited.

Benjamin opens the door of the abandoned theater and he slowly starts passing through the food booth into the giant doors that stood right in front of him; Keeping his pace, he opened the door revealing the seats and the main stage where a girl with multicolored hair was playing a guitar and singing together with an ghostly choral.

She was playing and singing with a skill equal to a professional, she mixed both styles perfectly but there was one thing that Benjamin found quite unnatural… WHY IS THERE A GHOST CHORAL SINGING?!

But Benjmain is not an idiot, if the choral was hostile it would already attacked her so they must be friends. He keeps on listening to her for some minutes until she stops.

"And that was 'Battle of vengeance!'" She says quite excited.

Benjamin can't hold his feelings and starts clapping. The girl turns around and is surprised to see him but quickly smiles and jumps from the main stage and walks into his direction.

"Hey! You liked it?!" She asks Benjamin quite excitedly.

"That was awesome! You play very well."

"Really?! Thank you!!!" She starts jumping around in glee, "I am Akemi Watanabe!"

"Benjamin Williams it's a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e."

Akemi suddenly stops getting all excited and looks at Benjamin in a very awkward manner.

"Heh, thanks for your awesome commentary about my song but you see… there wasn't supposed to be anyone in here, there was a magic barrier around here blocking the sound unless…"

She gets really close to him.

"Are you a Verger?"

Benjamin stops for a second; so now he start putting the pieces together… She was a Verger all this time. Well since the truth is up there's no need to lie about who he was.

"I am a Verger; I suppose that you are too?"

"Yeas I am!" She starts getting excited again. "That's so cool! It's my first time meeting another Verger! Here, meet my partner! Erik come out!"

From her shadow a tall figure stands behind her, he was wearing very luxurious clothes with knife gloves like Freddy Kruger, he had dark hair and one part of his face was covered with a very macabre opera mask.

"It's a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e to meet both fans of my angel of music, I'm Erik the Phantom of Opera," He says out loud.

Jack starts to appear from Benjamin's shadow.

"Nice to meet you both I am Jacob, better known as Jack! Don't worry I won't kill you both, it would be a waste to kill such talent!"

Now that's just impressive, she is contracted with the Phantom of Opera the motive of the contract is obvious…

"Let me guess he heard you singing and made a contract with you."

"Whoa, are you an ESPer?" She asks dumbfounded.

"Nope, just logic."

"So…how did you contracted with Jacky?" She says all giggly.

Akemi don't give the most famous serial killer a cute nickname!

"We could say that the kid was following the wrong man at the wrong time."

"Ohh interesting! You need to tell me this story one of these days!"

And so the two continue to talk a little; Benjamin discovered that she was a student at Itsumo High, a first year and one of those rare types of people that he didn't had any dirt on.

He admits, she can be very energetic but she is very nice; this is one of those few rare times that he want meet this person again.

Times flies again and now it's 6:55 P.M. it's time to begin operation Sister Agenda.

After saying goodbye to Akemi, Benjamin is now back at the plaza waiting for his target to appear.

'The secret of getting woman to talk with you is smiling and then talking first, next you make her to follow you and then you go for the kill,' Jack comments.

"We're not going to kill nobody!" Benjamin says. Then he come up with a very interesting question, "Hey Jack, I know that this skull is not your real face, it's a mask; can you show me your real face?"

'Uhhh maybe another day,' he says rather bored.

Then a red haired girl passes next to Benjamin and continues her way, it's Homura.

"Let's go," He whisper to Jack.

Benjamin starts following her and he prepares his camera to take photos. She looks normal.

Without any trace of emotion, he continue to follow her until she stops in a very familiar place.

'This place again?!' Jack screams upon seeing that she stopped at the park.

'This doesn't seem to be a coincidence,' Benjamin thinks before following her.

"Found it!" She exclaims and runs next to a dark portal.

'Oh you got to be shitting me with this one!' Jack comments.

Yet again a supernatural event occurs in the park, now without a doubt there's something very strange occurring behind the scenes in Itsumo!

"Now! Soul Emotion Transform!" She says before a great fire covers her entire body.

When the fire dies down Homura now sports an red scarlet vest with red gauntlets, ribbons and boots.

'No…no…stop world…stop…' Benjamin thinks to himself.

'You got to be f.u.c.k.i.n.g with me...' Jack deadpans.

'SHE IS A MAGICAL GIRL!!!' Benjamin screams internally.

"Now Libere Emoção," She says and the portal expands transporting the two into a new location.

They are now at a graveyard with dead trees and broken toys; in the distance Benjamin can see a… draft of a dog? Wait what the hell is that?!

"Homura the emotion this time is loneliness, be careful I'm reading a great amount from the north," A strange ghost holding a lantern said.

"Got it!" She excitedly says.

Benjamin doesn't have enough words to describe this… magical girl… that is just… just… you know what? Benjamin can't even describe what he's feeling, he'll just follow her!

But Benjamin was more surprised by the fact she can fight pretty well, calculation where the next enemy will appear and she can cast some very destructive magic, walls of fire and brimstone falls from the sky while the enemies burns to a crisp.

'She's good,' Jack comments.

'Yup, but let's be wary about this, we can't let her be hurt.'

At the moment that Benjamin finished that mental sentence they hear the ground trembling. He was confused and he searched the surrounding; In the end, he found the one who is making this mess… a giant 3-D polygon Grave Keeper.

But something was wrong… what are those strings near Homura?

Wait… Shit!

"So you're the boss prepa-"At this moment Benjamin tackles Homura making her fly, and like he have imagine the string were cut and a strange trapdoor opens in the sky.

From there a rain of monster comes crashing down and makes a hole in the ground!

"W-W-Who are you?!" She screams seeing Benjamin on top of her.

He quickly gets up and brush away any possible dirt from his body. He then take her hand and helps her stand up.

"Name's Benjamin the motive of my presence is because your brother was worried about you."

"Baku?!"

"Yup, look we can keep talking but we need to defeat the badly rendered grave keeper over there. Don't worry I know how to deal with supernatural occurrences."

"Look I know how to deal with Emoções, I'm pretty experienced!"

Based on the previous fight, Benjamin was convinced!

On that moment the grave keeper cut some more strings and clones of him started to appear; Homura's confidence goes down the hole.

"H-Hey, I-I k-kind need some help now." She says trembling.

"Oh really?" Benjamin smirks.

"I-If you help me! I will bring you to my teacher! He is very powerful!"

He stayed silent and walk some steps forward.

"Verge" Benjamin smiles.

Dark energy covers Benjamin's entire body and he feels his senses and powers going into whole new levels; Now he sports a black suit, cape and top hat and on his face was a skull mask.

"Let's destroy this bad CGI animation!"
