After Aoi and Yoshinobu leave, Kasumi talks with the other student one how they should handle the event.

When the event starts, Kasumi and the others manage to locate Yuji and surround him. As Mai draws Yuji to her, Kasumi goes to attack him but Yuji manages to evade her. As Aoi forces the Kyoto students to retreat from killing Yuji, Kasumi is glad about that. As Kasumi retreat with Noritoshi, both of them encounter Megumi and Maki.

As Kasumi takes on Maki, Maki wonders why she seperated from Noritoshi. Kasumi tells Maki that she wants to use this event in order to get promoted and help out her family. After talking, Kasumi and Maki continue to fight with neither holding back. As Kasumi fight Maki, she notices that Maki is stronger then what Mai had told her. As Kasumi is put on the defensive by Maki's attacks, she decides to take a stance in order to counter. When Maki breaks her weapon, Miwa wonder why she did that. As Maki throws a part of her broken weapon at Kasumi, Kasumi easily blocks it but notices that Maki had thrown a kunai. As Maki manages to get close to Kasumi, Kasumi defend herself against Maki.
