Kouki wished Akira had been her sister in truth instead of just pretense. She was not the bright one or the powerful one of her actual siblings, but instead, the quiet, dutiful daughter that was forgotten between Takatora and Mitsuzane.

One day, she'd just faded out of that life. Taken a few clothes, left her siblings a note, and started looking around for a safe place to stay. That had been internet cafes for a few nights until she came to Akira's notice, lonely and hungry. Akira had taken her in, made her feel like she was more than an in-between sibling.

She'd even supported Kouki's desire to dance with team Gaim, at least for a while. There, she could at least talk to her younger brother, though Mitsuzane kept arguing that she could come home. But she couldn't go, not back to where she'd fade away and become part of the wallpaper.

And he was becoming disturbingly protective of her. Even though she was the first of them to gain a Driver, he always acted like she was the younger sibling, not he.

Kouki had complained about it to Akira, who had reminded her of the importance of family - and sometimes, how silly boys were.

Personally, if she didn't have a responsibility towards Gaim, she would have disappeared. She was good at fading away, disappearing. But these were people she was responsible for, so she didn't leave. She didn't run.

She didn't fade. Even if she so much wanted to.
