(After the incident that resulted at the extinction of Onis due to the deaths of Styx and Acheron, Kirihito contacted someone.)

Kirihito: Hello? Yes, yes, Kirihito here. I want to ask you a favor. Could you please carve two stone stele to form some tombs? Yes? Good. Go to the Oni Village, and crave the following names.

(Kirihito speaks their names, but not their real names as he promised to keep said names a secret. After he finishes the contact he walks past his wife.)

Kirihito: Take care of our little girl. I'll be back.

(He keeps walking as he has something on his mind.)

Kirihito: (in mind) Poor Styx and Acheron... to think their existence would be short-lived because of this damn war.

(As he walks past a room, we see Caelus Rose having a talk with Zen Maverick as they are watching over the unconscious Samuel, Rumble and Frenzy.)

Zen: (turns to Caelus) What happened to him?

Caelus: Phase 6 Protocol: Execution of organic life forms. I tried to lock it, but Dreadwing found me... before this day... only Starscream was a prey for Soundblaster... (eyes widen) Oh, shit... I shouldn't remember that...

Raymond: Wait, Phase 6? What about the other five?

Caelus: First- invasion, Second- Collecting information and introducing human clones into society, Third- Active participation in the enslavement of the planet. The fourth is the beginning of the cyberforming of the earth. The fifth is the elimination of resistance...

Riku: And the last one...

Caelus: The sixth phase is very rare... if the population of the planet is too strong, then Sixphasers are called. There are only four of them and each one is dangerous... Overlord is an unkillable warrior. Sixshot- retired, but still dangerous. Sky Shadow is a mercenary, but very secretive. Of all of them, only  Overlord is dangerous. It is not taken by nuclear missiles, nor the explosion of galaxies... nothing.

Zen: We'll find a way to deal with him.

(Opening Theme)

(After the opening, Kirihito is seen arriving at the Oni Village as he sees Kagerou holding both Dragon's Shinigami and Naught.)

Kirihito: You came too, I see.

Kagerou: They deserved a neat funeral. They fought to their last breaths for a noble cause after all.

(Kagerou then places Dragon's Shinigami on Styx's grave, and then he places Naught on Acheron's grave.)

Kirihito/Kagerou: (unison) Our condolences, comrades. We had a little time together... but they were good times.

(Kagerou then brings a bottle of wine and two glasses as he fills them. Kirihito picks one of them.)

Kagerou: They had resilient and indomitable will.

Kirihito: And chose death to protect their honor and that they would rather die and be reunited with their kin in glory than live in the night and hear gossip about the Oni.

Kagerou/Kirihito: (unison) To Styx and Acheron.

(They toast and drink their wines, Kagerou starts doubting his own ideals.)

Kagerou: Am I really trying my best?

Kirihito: Huh?

Kagerou: Am I really fighting to accomplish my ideals?
