The episode begins off in the small village outside of Hage Village in the Forsaken Realm, called Britannia Village. As seen it was already the night time.
At the Shimura residence, Tony, as he was only eight years old and he was sitting with his mother, who was a former Magic Knight of the Black Bulls and the originator behind the Lightning Creation Magic, Lily Shimura.
They can be seen sitting down at the front porch, on a little steel bench.
Tony was so fixated on the beautiful and starry night sky, as he smiled. Then, he looks at his mother with the excited smile on his face.
"Mommy! The sky looks beautiful tonight!" He exclaimed as his eyes lit up in total excitement and happiness.
Lily looked down at her son and she nods, as she smiles back at him.
"I agree with you, sweetheart...Hey, sweetheart?"
"Yes, mommy?" Tony blinks and kept the smile on his face. He wondered on what his mother was gonna say or wanted from him.
Lily would take a moment to look back at the stars in the sky and then, back at Tony and places a hand over his head.
"Son, if there ever was a dream you want to accomplish someday...What would it be? What kind of person would you wanna be?" She asked.
Tony thought of it for a moment and he knows he grew up in a family full of magic knights. Even his mom, dad, and two people who are currently magic knights. He couldn't remember those two people all that well. Because it's been only a few years.He smiled and answers to his mother.
"I want to become a Magic Knight, mommy...Be the kind of magic knight will save people, no matter what the cause! Make everyone happy and save as much as people I can!" Tony enthusiastically said and this was his dream from the beginning.
Lily wasn't surprised by that answer and she was okay with it. The way he spoke of it, reminds her of how her husband, Kaito spoke about when they were young. She smiled and hugs him, as she seemed to shed a tear.
"I see. Well, sweetie...You have Momma's support, all the way. My little future Magic Knight~" She said as she let's go of the hug and pat him on the head once again, giving her son an assuring smile.
"I will do my best, mommy!" Tony said with excitement and he hugs her back, as he looks up at her.
"I know you will." Lily simply responded back and embraces the hug from his son.
During the hug, Lily looks up at the sky and thinks in her mind.
"I hope Kaito is watching...We have ourselves a future Magic Knight in our eyes." Lily thought in her mind.
The scene goes into white. Only about seven years later following this time, Tony was only 15, at this time. A few voices can be heard in the background.
"Is he awake...?"
It appears to be a young female's voice, but it was a higher-pitched type of voice. She had
A sigh can be heard too, as a male would then speak out in a annoyed tone of voice. "Can't I just punch him in the--"
"No, you can't do that, Nakato!" The female said, cutting him off mid-sentence.
"C'mon, let's go Sumire. We're gonna be late for the grimoire acceptance ceremony..." Another female spoke out to the purple-haired girl. She didn't want to be around that hot-head Nakato or that "troublesome" boy, Tony..
Nakato sighed heavily and takes a bucket, as he fills it up with water.
"Nakato! Don't do---"
The sound of water can be heard and Tony gets splashed at, as he wakes up with his eyes slightly closed. The background fades out.
"Well, he had it coming..."
"U-Ugh...Who woke me--" Tony asked, as he rubs his eyes and sees Sumire, Nakato, and Mai.
"U-Um, sorry about that Tony! Naka--"
Then, Tony looks at Sumire and Mai for a moment, but he looks at Nakato, who was holding the bucket that he used for water and waking him up with.
"...Your wake up call..." Nakato simply answered and puts the bucket back down where it belonged.
"Wake up call? Still, why did you do that for?! You could've just shaken me instead of just--!"
Tony exclaimed and was pretty annoyed, as he crosses his arms.
"Yes it is, idiot...Did you forget what today is?"
Mai asked, as she was even annoyed herself. But she was more annoyed at Tony and Nakato. Because they are the reason, that they may become late for the Grimoire Acceptance Ceremony.
"You didn't have to call him that, Mai..." Sumire said, defending for Tony.
Mai shrugged and had a remorseless look on her face. "I don't care. I just wanna go already..."
Tony had to think about it for a moment. He remembered what today was. "Oh, crap!!!! It's the Grimoire Acceptance Ceremony!!" He quickly jumps out of bed.
Nakato grunted at Tony, as he walks over to the door and opens it. He would look at Tony with an annoyed look on his face. "We'll wait for you...If you be long, we're leaving you behind..." He said, as he walks out of the room and heads outside from the Shimura residence.
"Hmph..." Mai flips her hair to the back side and she walks out after Nakato.
"Sorry about this, Tony..." Then, Sumire bowed as a way to apologize and runs out after Mai.
Tony watches his friends leave the room, as he would get dressed really fast. He shortly runs out and shouts out to his mother who was in the living room, looking at the newspaper.
"I'm off, Mom! Wish me luck in the Grimoire Acceptance Ceremony!"
"Okay, sweetheart! Good luck! Show them all whose the best!" Lily shouted back at him, before Tony had ran out of the door.
Tony had notably touched the family photo of him, his mother, his father, and two more people who was in the photo with them. He mainly touched his father's face in the photo before exiting.
"Look at our boy, Kai...He's about to make his first step into his journey...
...Into a Magic Knight..."
She said to herself, as she would look up at the large photo frame of the entire family together. As a quick highlight, the photo got a close-up of the two others in the family photo.

They were there for Nash to get his grimoire.
"If Asta and Yuno got this far of being Magic Knights. They are living proof of...Anything is possible....This is my time now!" Nash thought.
As spotted, there was yet another girl can be seen in a hoodie and covered up her face.
"I will get my grimoire and I will become a magic knight...Like no other!" She exclaimed in thought.
Then, in comes Tony, Sumire, Nakato, and Mai into the Grimoire Tower.
Tony and Nakato grinned big and he was so excited to get their grimoires.
"Here we go! My dream begins here! Magic Knights! Here I come!"
In a four-way split screen, shows both Tony and Nakato on opposite ends.
"Our journey begins here!" The four teenagers said at the same time.

As they were headed there, in the background can be seen with multiple people walking away.
Three main people, one of them had a sword in hand and the sword was dripping of blood.
The other was pretty tall and bulky, but he was very powerful.
The one in the middle was a female and her eyes were glowing, beaming in golden.
"Die, magic knight...You brought this upon yourself..." She simply thought in her mind, as she looks back at her troops and men. "Go...My lovelies, we'll catch up with you...Katsuke, Zero...You're staying with me..."
"Yes, ma'am!" Everyone vanishes away.
The evil female was smiling at how much the plan was working.
"You're next...Clover Kingdom..." She simply says.
