By morning I was woke up and turned to see 31Darkstar awake then we got out of bed "alright let's focus" I said, so we left the vacant dorm and walked into Riko's office but Darkstar and I were shocked to Beta, Tazuna and Yayoi talking to Riko "what's going on?" I asked with a confused tone. "We decided to forfeit, we got tired dealing with Corona's rumblings" Beta admitted "so switching sides" said Darkstar "that's right" said Tazuna. Beta looked at the remaining Umamusunes under Corona spell and freed them all. "I'll help you this point forward" said Beta "okay then Beta" I said then looked at Darkstar then Hantavirus, Beta, Darkstar and I walked outside. Darkstar sees a building that has a logo showing a triangle with a castle at its centre. "That building has a logo of a triangle with a rook piece at its centre" said Darkstar handing the binoculars to me as seeing the building at the distance "I recognise that logo, that's Rhode Island a faction from Arknights not be confused with Arknights: Endfield" I said. "Looks like that's where we are heading next, Rhode Island a faction from Arknights, lets go" said Hanta so Hantavirus, Beta, Darkstar and I left Tracen Academy and headed to Rhode Island an Arknights faction. At the Rhodes Island facility entrance there was fight going on between Amiya and Crownslayer and the unknown enemies known as Viral Drones "this is bad" said Crownslayer "I know Crownslayer but we must not give up" said Amiya suddenly Amiya and Crownslayer heard footsteps getting closer as a viral drone tried to attack a wall of golden ink appeared protecting Crownslayer and Amiya they turned to see me using my Arts "Darkstar!!" I shouted, as Darkstar jumps into the air holding his Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker in his hands taking out the Viral drones. Amiya and Crownslayer recognises me "Inkcanius, thank goodness you're here" they said together. "Things are about to get very confronting" Darkstar admitted. I comforted him "I know its not for the faint of hearted" I said looking at the destroyed viral drone seeing blood oozing from its electronics, "lets get up to speed at the Rhode Island facility" said Darkstar, "good idea Darkstar" I said. So Amiya, Crownslayer, Beta, Hantavirus, Darkstar and I walked inside the Rhodes Island Facility.
"Instructor Dobermann!! Where are you!!" Amiya shouted, Dobermann came out of the shadows "Amiya, Crownslayer thank goodness you're okay" said Dobermann "we had help" said Crownslayer before looking at me and 31Darkstar. Dobermann was amazed "Inkcanius!? I wasn't expecting you at all" Dobermann admitted, "its okay instructor, we just arrived after we left Tracen Academy" I explained, "noted right now this facility is the only baston left to defend, all of the operators that is under Corona's influence has gone rogue" said Dobermann. "I see, defeating them won't be that easy" said 31Darkstar "you must Darkstar, friend of Inkcanius?" Amiya asked "yes I am friend of Inkcanius" said Darkstar. Darkstar and I walked into our temporary living quarters. 31Darkstar and I got comfy "first Shattered Inkopolis, next was New Yoke City, after that is Tracen Academy and now Rhodes Island who knows where will go next?" said Darkstar "only time will tell" I said. Once rested Darkstar, Hanta, Beta and I were walking around the battlefield as we turn a corner, we saw a hooded figure then the figure pulls the hoodie back to show herself "you won't stop Corona, Amiya" she said. "Yato a Pionner Vanguard" I said unsheathing my X-Blade. "You will be free from Corona's grasp, Yato" I said. As the battle between Darkstar and myself against Yato is about to begin.
