Several days later...

Chase is getting back on his feet after the fight in Sector C, but still a bit dizzy.

Chase: "(dazed) I really need to keep myself on my toes if I want to come out of the next fight alive."

He walks out of the infirmary to see Lisa waiting for him.

Lisa: "H-Hey, are you alright?"

Chase: "Y-Yeah, I'm fine."

Lisa looks to her side.

Lisa: "Boss wants to see all of us to discuss the mysterious helper."

Chase goes ahead.

Chase: "Then let's get going."

Lisa follows.

Meanwhile...

The mysterious body in Sector D is being shipped to an unknown location on a helicopter with no pilot.

MONO: "Come to me. You're finally complete."

The helicopter takes flight.

Meanwhile...

Chase and Lisa arrive at Boss' office, where everyone else awaited them.

Boss: "Are you all right Chase?"

Chase: "No problem at all dad, just still a bit dizzy. Nothing to worry about."

Chase takes a seat.

Julie: "Well you'd better be. We've got one hell of a final assignment."

Now that everyone is here, the final briefing can begin.

Boss: "Based on your reports, Calius was taken over by MONO during your encounter in Sector C and a mysterious helper sent you a message to head to MONO Tower once you were done in Sector C."

Hammerhead: "So what does that mean?"

Boss: "You need to check out MONO Tower anyways. MONO's core programs must be terminated in order for the world to finally know peace."

Kyoya: "S-So we have to go?"

Boss: "And sadly only you. We can't spare a single man to go to MONO Tower with you. We've sent every last Accelerator and soldier to begin repairing Earth."

Everyone looks towards each other with a sense of duty.

Hammerhead: "The five of us can take care of this no problem at all."

Lisa: "Especially without any Accelerators on our tails!"

They all let out a soft smile.

Boss: "Alright then, once Chase finishes his recovery, all five of you are heading for MONO Tower."

Chase: "(smirking) Fine by me."

Their job still isn't finished. They have just one more job... but it'll be their most dangerous job yet.
