In this chapter, we learn that Persia has been fired from her position as the Prefect of the Flower Festival. She is still angry at Inuzuka for making fun of the flower festival's "bear-panties" . She tells him that she has finished the festival decorations and is waiting for him at the festival gate. In the meantime, she has been working on the festival signs and decorations. She asks him if he would humor her for a little contest. He refuses, saying that he would rather be outdone by someone like him. He tells her that he will show her that she is not going to be outdone. In fact, he says, he thinks he told him he would get through to Persia if he showed "sincerity." He then tells her to go check out the fight going on between the two of them. He says that he has heard that they are picking a fight against a "pet prefect." He asks Persia to go and check it out.
