Starlight Kid stands, staring into the camera in what looks to be the HWA Academy, her mask hiding her full expression, but the tension in her stance is clear.

Starlight Kid: Tobias-san… I read your message. You say, ‘I choose you.’ Like I am Pokémon? Your words… they no good. They hurt. You make fun of my English… my culture. Like joke? Why? In Japan, we respect. We honor each other. You no honor me. I try hard. I try fit in here. But your words make it hard for me.

She pauses for a bit, trying her best to translate from Japanese to English, trying to recall the lessons she’d been taking.

Starlight Kid: I come America to… grow. To show world I am strong puroresurā. But you… I see you. You try cheat Stu-E Price for world title. That no honor. No respect. I no want be part of dis. That not me.

She pauses again, her voice softening as she looks away, conflicted.

Starlight Kid: But… all others have tag partner. I… I have no choice. If I no team with you, I no compete. I no show my skills. So, I accept, Tobias-san. But listen. You try cheat? You try trick? I leave you. You fight alone! I fight for honor. Not for you. Remember that. See you in Seattle!

With her head held high, she walks away and the scene fades to black.
