Akatsuki Strikes[]
The Hagure Sisters, as well as everyone else who had participated in the training camp, were on the bus when they found out that Alice was an assassin for Akatsuki. The Hagure Sisters did not trust Alice after hearing this but decided to go with Ikki's judgment of trusting him anyway. The Hagure Sisters then arrived at a destroyed Hagun Academy and were able to defeat the Akatsuki members who had attacked the school. Alice is then stabbed by Amane multiple times and it is then revealed that the real Akatsuki members were hiding as the ones that were knocked down were just wooden puppets.
After Stella had lost her fight with Ouma, and Touka knocked her out, Touka had given Stella's body to them so they could run away together. They agreed and ran as far as they could before they are found by the Akatsuki members. The Hagure Sisters, however, are saved by Nene who had was able to hold off most the members by simply using her gravity manipulation. The Akatsuki members eventually retreat after Hiraga points out that they had done what they needed to do. The Hagure Sisters, after the fight with Akatsuki, realized they could not compete in such a tournament and have decided to drop out of the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival.
