Sachi, meanwhile, took a rest: really, anywhere would do. She wasn't picky.
 
	 
 
	This had been an odd past day, all things told. Half her teammates were insane; Amagi-senpai, for all she talked about 'denpa waves' and 'becoming the best sorceress in Kamogawa' was one thing, but these people, with their hallucinations of caves and suicidal behaviours, was another. The enemy was nothing she hadn't faced before; she wasn't like her sister, but she knew her way around a fight. And the other half of the team; they seemed hostile, almost as if they didn't want to be here. They seemed only tied together by a collective aim and no more. She was willing to bet that, if it weren't for these creatures, they would've killed each other by now.
 
	 
 
	Hikari was alright; Sachi saw a kindred soul in her. Edmond, Magna, Alexandria; she rattled those names off in her head. She scarcely knew anyone else; everyone was so distant or so hostile. Or just so hard to talk to. It felt hard to talk to these people. Some of them knew what they were doing; the other half were too lost to.
 
	 
 
	Whatever she was here to do, she would do it to the best of her ability. You're likely to succeed if you try; Mio had always said that, in those days so long ago in the Hero Club, with everyone else when it was so much simpler and she knew everyone.
 
	 
 
	Sachi sighed, taking the hairpin from her hair, contemplating it. It was a nadeshiko; Mio's symbol. It had always been hers. Sachi had no right to take it.
 
	Mio was the strong one, not her. She would know what to do. If Mio had been here, she would've taken control of the situation, taken charge, whipped the team into shape and figured out a game plan. If Mio had been here, they might've not had the accident that that weird man with the shotgun had. If Mio had been here-
 
	But she isn't.
 
	Instead of getting the more competent sister, they had Sachi. She barely knew what to do, or how to do it. She wasn't a leader, but a follower. 
 
	 
 
	She sat there, looking at the hairpin, almost oblivious to everything else. 
 
	If only I was stronger. Then....I'd know what to do, just like she did.....
