The sunset over Tokyo is spectacular and crowds are gathering in parks and city squares to view the comet. Hatomi, Yukari and Amano are at the shrine across from the school. The three are dressed casually in jeans. Hitomi has on a soft pink crop top, Yukari as best friends sometimes do, wears an identical green one. As they pass by the spot where Van killed the dragon Hitomi pauses.

Hitomi: "Go on I'll catch up in a few minutes."

Amano: " Sure I need to talk to Ukuari anyway, but don't take too long you won't want to miss any of the comet."

Amano places his are possessively across Yukuari's shoulders and leads her toward and open patch between several trees with a perfect view of the sky and the full moon hanging above the tip of the tree line. Hitomi watches them walk away then turns back to the spot she had just been looking at.

Hitomi: "I don't know why, but I feel sad for the dragon that died here. I never felt that way before."

Suddenly all goes dark and Hitomi sees a blue/green energist glowing brightly then tree men in dark robes gather around it. One holds out a long handled instrument, which he applies to the energist. The rod glows red and sparks erupt from under the energist. The energist cracks and explodes. Everything goes dark and Hatomi is again in the shrine.

Hitomi: " Oh no."

That was a vision she realizes as she tries to hold herself steady. Before she has a chance to figure out what it all means Ukuari puts a hand on her shoulder.

Ukuari: " Hitomi! Hitomi! He did it. I can't believe it I mean I was hoping.:"

Hitomi: " Hold on your speaking in riddles".

Amano walks up.

Amano: " Come on Hitomi, Yukari, the comet is coming, and by the way Hitomi, I asked Yukari to marry me, but she started babbling and without answering me ran for you."

Yukari flings her arms around Amano.

Yukari: "Oh Yes!"

Then the two kiss passionately, breaking off the embrace as they realize that for the moment they had forgotten Hitomi.

Hitomi: "Well one show is over, but I think the other is about to begin."

Together they walk over to the clearing. Yukari takes a blanket from her backpack and spreads it out on the grass.

Yukari: " You didn't think I was bringing my homework did you?"

She and Amano settle down on one side of the blanket leaving room for Hitomi on the other side. Hitomi wonders if the comet is visible in Gaea "I'd like to think that Van is watching this with me tonight.

The comet comes into view above the trees in the darkening sky.

Ukuari: "Oh how beautiful. It's blue/green."

Hitomi stands slowly, fear filling her mind. She keeps her eyes fixed on the comet's progress across the sky. She moves away from the blanket, her hands falling to her sides. As the comet passes behind the full moon a bright blue/green light bursts all around Hitomi. The light draws the attention of Ukuari and Amano. They turn to see the light evolving Hitomi. She screams in pain as her body arches backwards. She lifts her hand and a bright blue/green flame shoots out from the palm. Hatomi vanishes leaving behind nothing except charred grass.

Yukari: "Hitomi! OH NO!"
