"Sakura, stands up." - Kallen takes out a handkerchief, then help Sakura gets up. "Don't cry."

And the doctors starting to come out, they go away.

"... Let's come in..." - Theresa said, while wiping her tears.

"..."

"Kiana-chan... Let's go." - Mei tries to take her hand, but Kiana runs away from there, she left the hospital. "Kiana-chan!" - Mei wants to chase after her, but she was stopped by Himeko.

"Leave her alone, Mei. She needs to calm for a bit. Even thought this is her responsibility, no one shall blame her. Because no one will know the result on the path they choose. No one." - Himeko said.

"..."

They come inside, sees a doctor sitting on a chair next to your bed, you are sitting on it, face to the Valkyries, but your eyes, it's empty, soulless.

"... Captain..."

"Doctor..."

"I'm sorry to say this... But we've try our best. I'm truly sorry for your lost." - The doctor said. Then he left the room.

And the Valkyries, they couldn't hold their tears back, sees their beloved Captain is now... What should i call it? Half dead? They starting to crying, and calling your name.

But all is useless, you are there, but also not there at a same time.

"... We've gotta do something... Bronya suffer was worse before, but she wake up, right?" - Sirin said.

"Yeah... But how are we going to do it?"

The door opens, a blonde man comes in.

"You're...."

"Kono Otto da!" - It's OTTO APOCALYPSE!! (YES, I AM)

"Why are you here?"

"Ai-chan did send the report to me, he was my friend after all, so i wouldn't mind if i came here, and excuse me, Valkyries, can i have a talk with Fu Hua?" - Otto said.

"Huh?"

10 seconds later. Outside your room.

"Okay, why don't you did something by your Divine Key, and help him like you helped that girl like earlier??" - Otto ask.

"Well, it's easy, but i'm just too scared, it doesn't work all the time. If i failed, may cause his life."

".."

"And besides, no one can know my true identity, no one."

"Okay, i'll get them out, give you about 5 minutes."

"... Okay."

Later, only Fu Hua and Otto in your room now.

"Begin." - Otto said.
She active the key, and go inside your mind right now.

There are nothing, just a dark place.

A place darker than the dark.

"What the hell... Is this? I haven't seen such thing like this before..." - She said, and keep looking further.

But she sees nothing, for 10 minutes.

She have no other choice but to get out, she've reached her limit.

"... Did it go well?"

"No,... I can't do anything... It's so empty and dark..." - Fu Hua said, then she start to cry.

"I'm so sorry... But don't give up just yet. I won't let him dead, not under my watch."

"What are you planning?"

"There are people... All around the world has recovered from the same situation, so we have a hope."

"..."

"My friend, i won't let you die." - Otto said, then he left.

And everyone else comes in.

"What did he said?" - Durandal ask.

"... Nothing, he told us that we shouldn't give up all the hope. Not now."

"... Okay then..."

2 months later, Hyperion still working as its used to be.

But Himeko and Theresa on the Captain's position.

Meanwhile, they've get you back to Hyperion, back in your room.

Kiana has been missing from that night, no one knows where she went. Mei and Bronya has been looking for her all the times, but there are no tracks of her.

No one knows where she went, and what she's planning on.

Sirin also disappeared, a week after the accident.

Bronya lock herself in her room, she don't come outside often now.

The Hyperion's staff come visit you everyday, they couldn't just accept it, losing their best Captain.

England, London.

In a random street, the taxi stopped at a head of the road.

"Miss, i can't take you any further, this street is full of dangers. So sorry, but at least, if you want, i can take you away from here, you sure wants to stop here?" - The Taxi Driver said.

"Yeah, here's the cash." - The girl gives cash to the driver.

"But miss, this seems..."

"Keep the change."

"Okay... Good luck here."

"Thank you." - Then the girl stepped outside the taxi, and the taxi drove away.

It's snowing outside, no one can see anyone away from them about 20 meters.

It's Kiana, she's here because she heard there is someone who sell medicine can help you.

And besides, this area is dangerous af. People around here called this the Dark Street, very often people come this area. Most of them got robbed here, and some of them was killed.

But since it's about your life, Kiana ready to do it. Especially when she was the one put you in this situation.

Suddenly, she sees 3 people running towards her, they're all female.

"Yahoo!!"

"There is one! Another prey!"

"Take everything from her!"

"I see, so this is why people doesn't come here much." - Kiana said. "But i'll have to deal with them, take the medicine back to Captain!"

"Kya!!!!" - 2 of them charges straight to Kiana, they kick her, but Kiana blocked it by using her arms. "What?"

Kiana quickly kicks them out. They fly away.

"You're pretty strong, don't you?" - The last female standing in front of Kiana, she's wearing a top hat. Suddenly, she pulls out 2 knives.

And she charges straight to Kiana, she throw a knife. Kiana doesn't dodge it, she catch it with her bare hands.

"What's wrong with this one? She didn't dodge?" - The female said, then she stab Kiana.

Suddenly, Kiana doesn't bleed or fall down, because she stabbed something hard.

"What?" - She surprised. Then Kiana kicks her away.

"Hmph, i don-" - Kiana realized, more people shows up, they have weapons on their hands. "More?"

They approaching Kiana, but the female she just kick away gets up.

"Stop! If anyone lay a finger on that lady over there, i, Steelhorse won't forgive it!"

"What?" - They all looked to the girl claim herself Steelhorse.

"Hah..." - She gets up, approaching Kiana. "Why don't you kill us? These things... When i stabbed earlier, was guns, right?"

She pointed at the hole on Kiana's jacket, there are guns.

"Tell me, why don't you kill us? You definitely can kill us back there."

"I went here, is too take my responsibility for my actions, i don't come here to kill anyone, i come to save an important person to me." - Kiana said.

Steelhorse looks to the others, 2 girls from earlier gets up, they don't suffer much damage.

"... What's your name?"

"Kiana Kaslana."

"Okay, Kiana Kaslana, there's a guy on the other side of the street sell medicine, come with me, i'll lead you to him. He's a trickster, be aware of it." - Steelhorse said.

"Thank you, your name is?"

"My name is Lucia Steelhorse."

Then they go along on the road.

Back to Hyperion, it's around 8PM in the night now, everyone is having dinner.

Usually, back to 2 months ago, dinner doesn't be so quiet like this, because there was you and Kiana.

Now, everyone doesn't said anything.

Seele suddenly stands up, take a disk with her.

"Seele, where are you going?" - Fu Hua ask.

"... I'm bringing this to Bronya-neechan... Hopefully she'll eat."

"Yeah..."

"..."

They go silent again.

"Anyway... Tomorrow, we're going to find Kiana." - Theresa said.

"... I don't think we should." - Fuka said.

"Why? You don't care about her?"

"No, because... This is her fault, she knows it too, and she'll take responsibility for it."

"...."

"Fu Hua, you said it, but inside, you're very worry about Kiana, right?" - Himeko said.

"... Maybe."

"Don't too worry about her, she probably is finding a way."

"... But how? Even world's greatest doctors can't..."

"They said believe in miracle."

"..."

The door opens, a staff comes in.

"Pardon me, Major, we need you on the bridge now, there is something."

"... Okay then, sorry Mei, but it appears that i can't enjoy this dinner with y'all." - Then Himeko goes with the staff to the bridge. "What is it?"

"There is a scout team from Anti-Entropy around this area, they've lost contact with this team. Since Overseer have relationship with Anti-Entropy, he wants to help them a bit. So he told us send a Valkyrie squad down there find and rescue them."

"I see... Ready a jet, i'll go there alone."

"But wait, Madam. We've also deteced a strong Honkai signal down there. It's good to get some comrades with you. It's snow like hell down there, you'll end up by losing direction."

"... Understand... But who would go at this time?"

"Let us go with you." - Theresa come with Mei and Kallen with Sakura.

"... You sure?"

"Yeah..."

"Then ready yourself."

A few moments later, they landed at the ground by using the jet.

"Stay close, girls." - Himeko said, then she lead the way, hand holding a torch.

They didn't come back for 2 hours.
