On Saturday, everyone sat around the dining table eating breakfast. Like he'd been doing for the past 3 days, Achos was trying to figure out how he was going to kill Tomoki. It wasn't like he had an immediate deadline for it, but he wanted to get it over with. He didn't want to grow any sort of attachments with any of the people he was with, because he knew that would distract him from carrying out the order he was given.

The same one that the others failed to complete, he thought, his thoughts suddenly shifting for once. But why...? What's so special about him that made them turn their backs on the Synapse? It just doesn't make sense. It was love. The Angeloids' love for Tomoki stopped them from doing what they were supposed to do. But Achos never knew the word, nor experienced the feeling. If he knew the word "love" like Chaos did, perhaps he'd be curious and ask. But he never did, because he'd never heard the word. At this point, it'd be foreign to him. Just like it was to Chaos the first time she heard it from Minos. All Achos wanted now, though, was to complete the mission that was given to him. He hadn't been instructed to do anything else. Those were the only words he'd ever received in his order: "Kill Tomoki Sakurai".

"Hey, Achos. You there?" Tomoki startled Achos, snapping him out of his trance. He shook his head and looked at Tomoki.

"Yeah, what's up?" he asked.

"Oh, I was just wondering. I'm going out to a place overlooking the city when I'm done eating. Want to come with me?" Ikaros reacted immediately to the question, looking at her master with a very deep concern.

Master, alone with Achos? she thought. She experienced a sharp pain in her reactor when she thought about it, and fought against the urge to show it. Meanwhile, Achos struggled not to smile. He knew that this was the perfect opportunity to kill Tomoki.

There won't be anywhere for him to run, he thought. Then, he nodded.

"Okay, sure. Why not?" Ikaros gritted her teeth. She couldn't stand the pain. Nymph noticed this, and looked at her with concern.

"Hey Alpha, are you alright?" she asked, placing a hand on Ikaros' shoulder. It wasn't there for long though, since she suddenly stood up.

"Excuse me," Ikaros said quietly, leaving the room and walking upstairs. Nymph suddenly became aware of what was happening. Ikaros wasn't feeling comfortable with the idea of Tomoki and Achos going out. She'd been suspicious about the black-haired angeloid for almost a week now, and this wasn't making it any better for her. Nymph didn't know what to do to try and comfort her, so she remained at her seat at the dining table.

By the stairs, Ikaros pressed her hand against her chest. The pain was unbearable.

It hurts, she thought. My reactor has hurt before... but it's never hurt like this... I don't want it to! Ikaros sobbed silently, not knowing what she was going to do. She was devoted entirely to her master, and was nothing but sure that Achos was there in Sorami City to kill him. She knew she had to protect him, but she didn't know how. She didn't know how her master would react if she tried to.

I just wish there was a way... to protect my master... Both of Ikaros' hands were now over her mouth, suppressing the sounds of her sobbing as her tears flowed down her cheeks.

A while later, Tomoki and Achos set off for their destination. Tomoki was wearing his brown jacket as well as a pair of jeans and sneakers, while Achos was wearing the outfit he wore when he first arrived.

"Trust me, you're going to like this place," Tomoki assured. "You get a good view of the whole city, and the best part is that it's so peaceful there." Achos nodded, pretending to acknowledge Tomoki's point of view.

"I hope you're telling the truth," Achos said.

Sohara and the other Angeloids were getting worried. The moment the two boys left the house, Ikaros had not stopped pacing up and down the hallway on the second floor. They tried to get her to calm down, but it simply wasn't working.

"Ikaros, I'm sure Achos is a good guy! He wouldn't hurt Tomoki!" Sohara said. But the truth was, she was growing to be a bit suspicious of the new angeloid, too. She began to fear for the life of her childhood friend.

"No. He wants to hurt him and I'm sure of it," Ikaros countered, continuing to pace up and down aimlessly. That was when Sohara stopped trying to comfort her. With her suspicion growing, all she could do was believe that Ikaros was right. Even though Achos hadn't shown any obvious signs of hostility.

"Alpha, you need to let this go! As much as I understand the fact that you're worried about your master, you can't worry about this forever!" Nymph tried desperately to comfort Ikaros, but her attempts were failing.

"But what if Master gets hurt? Or worse?" Tears welled in her eyes again at the prospect of her master being killed by another angeloid. And there was the pain. The terrible pain that resided in her reactor whenever she thought about it. She tried not to, but she couldn't help it. She was in love with her master. She couldn't simply dismiss the possibility of Tomoki being hurt or killed and assume that he would be okay. But it hurt so badly, worse than any physical pain that she'd experienced. She just wanted it to go away. To vanish. But it wasn't that easy. Ikaros couldn't take it anymore. She had to find out if her master was okay. Her casual clothing was soon replaced by her angeloid clothing, and her wings became outstretched.

"I'm sorry, but I have to go and find out if my master is okay!" Ikaros said, flying straight up and crashing through the roof. The others just stared at the hole she'd created.

"Tomoki's gonna be pissed..." Nymph muttered under her breath. Like Ikaros, she'd equipped her angeloid clothing and outstretched her wings. She then elevated slightly to match with Sohara's height and grabbed her under the arms.

"Come on, Delta! We have to follow her!" she said, flying up through the hole in the roof.

"Hey, wait up!" Astraea called out, not needing to worry about her clothing (since she was already wearing her angeloid clothing) and taking off after Nymph.

Tomoki and Achos had finally reached their destination, Tomoki standing by the railing while Achos stood behind him, hands tucked into the pockets of his hoodie. Tomoki took a deep breath and exhaled, sighing contently.

"Great view, isn't it?" Tomoki asked. He waited for a response. Unbeknownst to him while he was staring out at the city, Achos removed his hands from his pockets.

"Yeah..." Achos responded, his clothing suddenly being slowly replaced by his angeloid clothing. Instead of his black hoodie, pants and sneakers, he now wore a black long-sleeved fabric with white stripes on four corners around the centre that stretched out and connected on the back, black and red armor for his legs, and black and white shoulder plates. He soon detached a black hilt of a sword from his leg, and activated the sword, a long red blade ejecting from the hilt. It was very similar to Astraea's sword, the only real difference being the colors. Tomoki, hearing an electronic hum emanating from the sword, whipped around to see Achos in his angeloid form.

"But I want you to see something else before you die," Achos said, gripping his sword tightly.

You have got to be kidding me, Tomoki thought in annoyance as he hoped for some type of intervention.

"Meet Nemesis," Achos said, raising the sword. "This sword and I will be the last thing you see." Then, he swung it at Tomoki.
