Something will fall.

Someone will rise.

It is supposed to be the transition of spring to summer in Japan by this time of month. But in Tohoku, it is a must to wear winter clothing. This region, known for its low temperature almost all year round, is the nest of the fourth and last Zodiac quadrant. Hence, Purgatorio, Nasser Suheil and Bonten are all here for the judgment day. Their purpose is only one—which is to end Zodiac—one of their common enemies.

The headquarters of the last quadrant is found at the foot of a mountainous area and neatly hidden by the surrounding glaciers. In one glance, no one would believe easily that illegal transactions are being held in this discreet place. But that's advantageous on the part of Zodiac. To get to their base, they must use the cable cars and cross the vast pile of land with growing sugar pines and Japanese yews with snow on the tips of its branches.

From the weapons to the trucks to the actors, everything and everyone are prepared. Their plan includes splitting up into three. The first group will consist of those who will pretend to be Zodiac's new clients, Caelum, a rising underground organization from Rome who are interested in starting their illegal businesses. They are the ones about to use the main entrance. To be feared and become well-known, they intend to order explosive devices at Zodiac. Of course, such a group doesn't exist. It's only a made-up group by Sarina and the rest of the leaders to infiltrate Zodiac. They ought to destroy them from the inside when they still don't have any idea that an alliance exists. Better strike now when the enemies are on the gray.

"You guys make sure you make it back here alive." 

"For you, I will." / "Yes, Dame."

Two pairs of eyes looked at one another after answering the question of a certain black-haired. For seconds they glared at each other for existing. But the anger of the other is more visible. And to put a cherry on top, the two of them need to work together for they belong to the first team.

"Gemini is mine, Herrman." The one with purple orbs hinted.

"Want to race, Haitani?" The one with maroon-colored retaliated.

"No. Stick to the plan, Rin-chan, Lucas. Bring the three leaders alive." 

The two males, joined by Bonten and some Purgatorio members will wear disguises to pose as Caelum members and talk to the three remaining leaders of their enemy. The second group, consisting of Nasser Suheil and some other Purgatorio members have already started their hiking to the other side of the mountain to get to the other entrance of the base. According to Sarina's plan, these two groups will trap Zodiac before attacking. As for the fear of getting seen, the third group consisting of the three gangs' technology experts, together with Mikey, Conrad, Sarina, and other men are going to stay hidden in a camp they set up to monitor the events in a different point of view. From their angle, they can sight the two entrances. This group also plan to deploy decoys to create a distraction outside the base, enough to cause a disarray within Zodiac. When the enemies inside are diminished, the attack will start and hell will break loose. Sarina designed this plan after studying the blueprint of the base together with the three bosses.
