Seated comfortably in the backseat of an armored car, strategically parked at a safe distance from the raging battlefield, a man's lips curled into a satisfied smile as he peered into the screen of a small computer clutched within his hands. Despite his youthful appearance, it was evident from his refined countenance and the impeccably tailored jet-black suit he wore that he possessed an air of maturity beyond his years.

Fixated on the captured footage of the electrifying clash between Accelerator and the mysterious girl, his smile widened, resembling that of a child who had just witnessed an enthralling toy commercial. At long last, he had made his decision, knowing exactly what to ask for this upcoming Christmas.

"I want her power," he whispered, his voice suffused with suppressed desire and exhilaration.

"The mere thought of how it could bring me toward my ambitions is utterly captivating. And the fact that she remains undetectable... Oh!" he exclaimed, his excitement subdued yet immense.

"Ugh, so boring. I might start to think I'm getting too old for this."

Suddenly, he heard Accelerator's voice echoing through the screen, his nonchalant remark sparking a surge of anticipation within the man. It was as if he had stumbled upon an engrossing puzzle, one that reignited the flames of his passion.

"Don't worry, I'll bring you something both of us will be satisfied with." his words carrying a delicate pledge.

In the dimly lit confines of a control room or a deck, a woman of petite stature commanded attention. Dressed in a crimson coat layered over a pristine white uniform, her black tie embellished with striking scarlet sidelines perfectly complemented the vivid red of her skirt. The glow of the wide monitor before her bathed her features in an ethereal light as she observed Accelerator's battle unfold.

"What the hell? How is it that we're unable to detect her? With Nightmare and Devil already keeping us on our toes, now we have another one to deal with. It seems like our war is about to become even more challenging." Her voice carried a potent mix of frustration and confidence

Ugh, so boring. I might start to think I'm getting too old for this." 

As Accelerator's nonchalant remark reached her ears, a subtle smirk tugged at the corners of her lips. Her gaze narrowed, focused on a particular detail on the screen, as if she had spotted an opportunity amidst the chaos.

"Is that so?" she murmured; her voice laced with unwavering certainty. Her response dripped with determination.

A resolute smile graced her lips as she contemplated the impending clash, her gaze fixed unwaveringly on the figure of Accelerator displayed on the screen. Her eyes sparkled with anticipation and resolve.

Accelerator strolled leisurely past an unassuming alleyway, completely unaware that he was being observed by someone lurking in the shadows. Concealed within the darkness, a young girl with her arms folded observed him intently, her gaze fixed upon his piercing red eyes.

"Ara, what a captivating performance," she remarked, her voice laced with a playful tone. 

The girl's eyes followed Accelerator as he ascended into the sky, disappearing from her sight like a shooting star. She remained there, contemplating the encounter, her thoughts swirling with curiosity and intrigue.
