Maki and Lance walked into the gates of the school as they saw Anton standing near a tree. "Hey it's Anton, let's go say hi to him. Yo Anton!" Maki and Lance walked up to Anton, he seemed confused at first but he remembered his friends. "Sorry I have been thinking a lot lately. We saved the world. But when your father completed this task he lost his life and everyone briefly forgot what happened. Why did this not happen with us?" Maki thought about Anton's question for a bit before Kojiro walked up. "Well, it's probably because Maki had both her own power and that of her father's running through her, so she had the power to beat Nyx without needing to give up her life or lose everyone's memories. And cause that Nyx wasn't from this universe originally." Anton nodded as they all ran into the building. It was early March and they had to get to the graduation ceremony.

At the end of the school day everyone gathered together on top of the school roof as bother parents and kids had a laugh as they enjoyed the view of Tatsumi Port Island's sunset. Maki stood at the railing as she felt a presence next to her. She looked over and smiled, standing next to her was her father Makoto. 16 years old and happy his future would bring about a daughter who saved the world just like he did.

"Thank you." Maki said to her father. Everyone looked over and saw Maki looking off into the distance. She figured she was the only one who could see her father so she smiled as she looked back at the sunset. Makoto nodded to her before vanishing. "Maki, sweetheart. I'm so proud of you. I know your father would be too. If only he were still here to see it." As everyone stood next to Maki watching the sunset they all smiled to one another. Then they heard crying, but it didn't sound like a normal person crying. "Junpei!" "Junpei-kun!" Everyone turned around. "Chidori!" Junpei ran. Chidori was standing at the roof door holding their new-born child. Junpei hugged Chidori as she handed him his child. Standing next to Chidori was Fuuka Yamagishi. Maki remembered Fuuka when she was younger as she would visit them from time to time. "Fuuka! Were you with Chidori this whole time?" Yukari asked. Fuuka nodded her head as everyone came together for another group hug.

Maki, Minerva, Lance, Anton, and Kojiro would be moving on and becoming third years. Yukari was so proud of her daughter and the young woman she'd became. Mitsuru treated everyone to the nicest restaurant in all of Japan that night. The world Maki and Makoto fought to save had finally received its happy ending. "Farewell my friends" Igor claimed.
