Several years ago, young Ameri was sitting on her father's lap and asked: "Can I ask you something? When you work everyday, are you out catching the bad guys?"

"That's right." Replied her father, "I capture the demons who have forgotten their promise to the Netherworld."

"Awesome, Daddy!" Beamed Ameri in admiration, "I'm gonna catch them, too!"

Her father chuckled and gently patted his daughter's head and asked: "Are you now? But it's not just demons we capture. It's other creatures as well."

"Creatures besides demons?" Asked Ameri.

"Yes, indeed." Replied her father, "For example... Humans and their elk."

In the present day, twins from the human world, Ryūko and Iruma Suzuki, and their housemate Isabelle Abaddon were on their way to the First Year's Tower of the demon school Babylus while being drowned in attention ever since they won the Tricky Award from the Battler Party.

Student 1: "Hey, it's Isabelle, Ryūko, and Iruma!"

Student 2: "They won the Tricky Award."

Student 3: "Super tricky!"

Student 4: "They're Gimels now. Wow."

Student 5: "His hair tuft looks like a sickle."

Student 6: "Did you see her crown? She looks like a princess!"

Now with all of this popularity thrown onto the trio, it got incredibly stressful for Iruma. Ryūko and Isabelle, on the other hand, was already used to the attention, but not in a way that they want to be popular, anyway. Ryūko was touching her new black cherry blossom ear cuff on the right ear, thinking of her beloved soulmate, Kirio Amy, as they walk.

"Hey-o, Isabelle, Ryūko, and Iruma!" Addressed another student from the audience.

"I saw the special edition!" Said a demon girl.

"Oh. Why thank you." Bowed Ryūko and Isabelle regally.

"Thanks..." Bowed Iruma. "That's reeally nice."

"He's adorable cute!" Complimented a different demon girl.

"His sister is a beautiful hit of ice!" Added a demon boy.

"Isabelle is radiant, like the morning sun." Said another demon girl.

'W-We're couldn't standing more if we tried...' Thought Iruma.

'Now that I raised to a Gimel, I hope I did Amy proud.' Thought Ryūko, now in a love-like state in her head, 'It's only been today that you got taken away to Demon Border Control, but... I still miss you. We did spend a lot of time together, anyway.'

Acheron then appraoched the trio and greeted them: "Hey, guys. I see you're being swarmed by other students, huh?"

"Yeah." Said Isabelle.

"The same thing happened to me, as well. Except, that there are a lot of jealous people especially my own classmates. At least Eiko, Dariss, and Gaako aren't jealous that I'm a Gimel now."

The two of them shared a chuckle.

In the Misfit Class' Room

When Isabelle, Ryūko, and Iruma got in the classroom, they noticed Clara Valac, a friend of theirs, looking at the front page of the school newspaper and exclaimed: "Ooh, the special edition! Way to go, Ryūko-kins, Issy-kins, and Iruma-kins!"
