*Third Person POV*
~Road To A Prison~
Meanwhile, a prisoner truck carrying Kiyotaka, Suzune, Kikyō, and Yōsuke is on its way to a prison, where they will be locked up for some time.
~Inside The Truck~
Kiyotaka: ...
Suzune: ...
Kikyō: ...
Yōsuke: ...
Guard: You lot shouldn't be so gloomy. At least, you'll still be together like you requested.
Kiyotaka: ... Oh, I am not being gloomy. I'm just being patient.
Guard 2: For what? Getting to the prison?
Kiyotaka: ... For someone to pick up a beacon.
Guard: What beacon?
Kiyotaka: Oh, you'll see.
*Flashback*
{Final Battle}
Kikyō: *Seeing them leave* Wait. *Reaches out* Wait! Wait for us!
Kiyotaka: Kikyō.
Kikyō: *Turns to him*
Kiyotaka: It's over.
Kikyō: ... *Begins to cry* ... Kiyo... *Hugs him*
Kiyotaka: ... *Whispers* You know what to do.
Kikyō: ... *Sniffling* ... Hm?
Kiyotaka: Start it up.
Kikyō: *Realizes* Oh. Right. *Pulls out a necklace* (Never thought I'd try this.) *Finds and presses a hidden button on it* There. *Pockets it*
Kiyotaka: Now, wait.
Kikyō: ... *Nods* Okay. *Gets on her knees and puts her hands behind her head*
*Flashback ends*
Kikyō: *Gazing at her necklace*
Guard 2: What exactly is there to wait for? There's nothing out here, but- *Spots something* What the...?
Guard: *Spots it as well and stops the truck*
~Outside~
Up ahead, a big rig, appearing to have broken down, is blocking the whole road, with only one guy in a scarf trying to fix it.
Guard: I'll go check it out. *Exits the prisoner truck and approaches the other one* You alright?
Man: Yeah, my rig broke down. I'm not sure what happened though.
Guard: I can help if you'd like. I gotta get my truck to its destination as soon as possible. *Approaches the hood*
Man: Sure. Thank you.
Guard: *Examines the engine* So, where are you headed?
Man: I work for an independent tech company. I was heading to the local facility with some necessities... *Grabs the hood* when... *Slams the hood onto the guard, knocking him out* ...my engine suddenly popped.
Guard 2: *Exits the prisoner truck* Hey! What was that for?!
*A beam of water shoots out of the rig's passenger side and knocks the remaining guard unconscious*
~Inside~
*Suzune, Kikyō, and Yōsuke turn to the front upon hearing the commotion*
Kiyotaka: Looks like they're here.
