Allen stands atop a pillar in the crescent moon's light.
"That light always led us on... Just like the Destroyer of Time..."
"Something strange is happening to the sky!?" Reiko says.
"Lenalee!?" Allen calls. "No, that form is... A monster!?"
The earth rips open in front of the building, and the building is torn apart. It collapses in the center of the Delta.
"The Black Order building!"
The reflecting pool soars into the air, carrying four balls of light with it. Two bodies are held inside.
"That's...!? Lavi! Miranda!" Allen flies after them. "Lavi! Miranda!" As he approaches, he's knocked away. "I can't get near it! Everyone!?"
"Look!" Reiko says. "That...!? Something's covering the sea! That's...!?"
"We interrupt this for a national emergency broadcast!" the TV reporter says. "This is an emergency warning announcement! First class martial law has been officially declared in the London coast area! A mysterious giant explosion is occurring in the Fire Nation coast area! The center of the Delta is also experiencing a severe earthquake of unknown magnitude. Martial law has been declared! Residents should take refuge at once..."
"Heh heh heh..." says Khione. "The time has come. Now with the energy that's been accumulated, Queen Bandiane will assimilate this planet. The time of the utilization!"
"Assimilate this planet!?"
"When the utilization is completed, this land will be one with Queen Bandiane. It will become a Black Hole. This planet will become our mother world! Heh heh heh! Ahahahaha!"
Reiko looks in her mirror, then toward the sea.
"Reiko!?"
"The sea is subsiding all at once," she thinks. "Is it foreboding a tidal wave!?"
"The sky is looking strange," thinks Reiko. "Is a storm coming? Or else, is something coming through the space...?"
"If things go like this, there will be a huge earthquake," thinks Reiko.
Reiko jumped into the air.
"Reiko!" Allen calls.
"I must protect this land."
She landed on top of a building in the corner of the Delta.
Reiko raised her weapon. "The Destroyer of Time. This planet where Allen was born."
Reiko raised her weapon. "I will defend this world!"
Reiko cried. "That is my mission!"
A beam of light shot into the sky, meeting above the Black Order.
"Making a force field?" Khione says. "Useless."
"Reiko!" Allen calls.
"When the master's utilization is completed, it will no longer be necessary for me to stay inside a human body!" She bends over. "I can't work freely!? I can't get out!"
"You won't escape!"
"Who's that!?"
"This body is still mine," Lenalee says. "You won't get out of it! I won't let you be free!"
"I thought you has disappeared near the food inside me. But you're still living, stubbornly. Your tiny soul! I took in the Exorcist's Innocence and powered up. Now I have no reason to control you. I will cast off this body and break it to pieces!"
"You can tear it to pieces! It will scatter apart! But Kanda's spirit, and his Innocence. Whatever happens, I'll protect them!"
"Impudent humans! Nobody will stop me!"
Allen attacked.
Khione raises her arm, and Allen is knocked back.
"From the exorcist's innocence," she says, "you can't take my power! Power! More power!" She looks up at the pool in the air. "The exorcist's souls!"
"Lavi! Miranda!"
The light left their bodies, and they collapsed in the empty pool.
Allen flew up to them. "Everyone! Hold on!"
Khione licks her lips.
"Oh no!" Allen says. "Did she steal their spirits!? No...!"
Lenalee sees the two exorcist's bodies floating in space. She goes over and clutches five balls of light.
"Troublesome worms!" Khione says. "Bring me souls!" Lenalee cries out in pain.
"With the power of my body, I might be able to protect the exorcist's innocence, and the spirits of Kanda and the two exorcists...! My spirit was seized by them. It is my death... But why is this all I can do? My dad is gone... I have nothing anymore... But why do I still have power? If I'm this strong... Inside of me, I feel another, bigger me. That me is saying to keep life, and save everyone. All I can do is to take these three spirits, and Kanda's innocence, and rescue them from here!"
A ball of light bursts out of Khione. "Damn!" she says. "The souls are being taken away! But, now I am free!"
Allen looks up. "That white light..."
Two lights come out of it, and go into the bodies of the exorcists. They slowly open their eyes.
"Everyone!" Allen says. He faintly sees Lenalee watching her, smiling. Lenalee turns into a ball of light and flies away.
"Lenalee!"

Kurai opens her eyes. She gets up and feels Kand's forehead. "I dozed off. Kanda..."
Lenalee's spirit sits in the open window.
"Who are you!?" Kurai says.
Two lights enter the room. One goes into Kanda's body, the other becomes the exorcist's innocence and sinks inside his chest.
Kanda opens his eyes.
"Kanda!"
"Kurai..." Kanda sits up, and sees the spirit.
"Good."
"Lenalee!?"
"I was able to save you, Kanda. I'm happy. It's good. It's strange. It must have been fate that we met."
"I thought that too," Kanda says. They hold hands. "Lenalee..."
Khione mutates into a large monster.
Lenalee screams.
"Lenalee!?"
"It's good we met. I'm glad we became friends, Kanda. Thank you. Goodbye."
Her spirit fades away. "Lenalee!?"

"Lenalee...?" Allen thinks.
"This... This sad fate..." thinks Kanda. He starts to cry. "Lenalee... There are people who must live this fate..."
Kurai's fist tightens. "Kanda," he says. "Can you fight with me, to help Allen?"
Kanda looks up. "I can fight. I won't cry anymore. I am a sailor soldier too. With the life Lenalee brought back to me, I'll fight with all my might!" He clutches Mugen. He wipes her eyes. "Kurai! You gave me strength. Thank you! We might not have power like Allen, but let's go fight together!" He runs out of the room.
"Amazing," Kurai thinks. "Wondrous, full of power. It's more like I've been given strength from Kanda. And Lenalee's power too. Allen! I'll be there soon!"
The monster roars as it rises over the Black Order
"Allen!" Lavi says. "That thing! What is it!? It looks strange. It seems like it's in pain!"
The monster screams as it approaches them.
"Oh no!"
Kanda attacked with Mugen.
The monster falls back.
"Kanda!"
"Kanda!" Allen says. "How...?"
"Lenalee saved me," he says. "She gave her life, and protected me."
"Lenalee gave her life..." Allen thinks. "She's gone... Lenalee..."
"What are you doing!" Kurai calls. "Quickly! Activate Crown Clown!"
"Kurai!"
"If you don't act, this planet will be eaten away by that thing! Reiko is using a huge amount of power to sustain that force field. Hurry and defeat it!"
"Allen!" the others say.
"Yes," Allen thinks. "I must protect it. I must save this planet!"
Allen activated Crown Clown.
"Now join our power together!"
