TW// Violence, blood


Sei is fighting Adira.

ADIRA: Why are your eyes glowing?... Oh I remember now. Your parents, no your mom. She was one of us. Too bad she was a traitor, just like Akane.

SEI: She isn't a traitor.

ADIRA: Isn't?

She stops.

ADIRA: Oh wait... She's still alive?

Sei doesn't say anything.

ADIRA: Ohhh. My dear sister is still alive.

SEI: You are not going to hurt her! You won't find her.

ADIRA: Oh honey. I don't need to find her.

She pulls out five small knives.

ADIRA: She'll come to me!

She throws them at Sei, stabbing him. He falls down. She comes to him. She takes a knife and lifts his chin with it.

ADIRA: Let's call her.


Akane is looking at the rock. Suddenly she drops it and her body freezes. She sees her sister holding Sei by his hair.

ADIRA: Hi sis. I heard you're still alive. Why don't you join us we're all having so much fun.

It shows everyone captured.

ADIRA: Come here or they all die.

Akane unfrozes.

AKANE: N-no!


Everyone is outside and Akane is walking towords them.

ADIRA: Hi sis! Last time I remember you were dead.

AKANE: You won't kill me that easily.

ADIRA: Maybe not you, but it'll be easy to kill them.

She snaps her fingers and they push Sei in front of her. Akane flinches but she doesn't move.

ADIRA: Common Akane, why don't you help your boyfriend.

Akane makes a fist with her hands.

ADIRA: Are you angry huh?

She takes her knife and puts it on Sei's neck.

ADIRA: It'll be a shame to kill such a beautiful man.

AKANE: What do you want?

ADIRA: You know exactly what I want.

Akane reaches in her pocket and takes out the rock wrapped in her coat.

MIRA: When did you take the Uglax? Why did you take it?

Sei looks at Akane confused. Akane looks at him. Sei remembers that she asked him to trust her. So he nods. Akane looks back at Adira.

AKANE: I never abandoned my mission sister. All of this was part of the mission.

SHIRO: Akane... What are you talking about?

AKANE: I have the Uglax now, we can go home.

ADIRA: You're lying!

AKANE: I was taught not to lie.

TAGGI: Akane stop!

AKANE: We can go home now.

ADIRA: What about them?

AKANE: Leave theme here... They are nothing.

AI: What!?

ADIRA: Give me the stone first and I'll leave them.

MIRA: Akane don't do it!

Akane looks at the stone, covers it, walks to her sister and gives it to her.

AKANE: Let's go.
