Isola used her Huddle-Up Strike attack which Gunvolt, Copen and Lumen easily dodged while Atari and Zeno were temporarily blinded. Isola knocked the two over by running into them. Afterwards, Isola's EXSIA projections fell to the ground and stretched to the ceiling as she generated two copies of herself. Luckily, Gunvolt could see the true Isola apart from the two fakes.
After she was tagged and flashed, Isola initiated her 2nd battle phase. Copen used Shred Storm and eradicated Isola's armor. With a tornado, Atari made Isola dizzy and almost fall off her floating "stage" before knocking Isola into a wall and making her pass out. Isola woke up when she sustained enough damage to initiate her final battle phase. Gunvolt used his Azure Striker Septima to dissolve the EXSIA bits. However, the beams eminating from Isola grew twice as strong.
Isola moved left and right above, damaging and blinding everyone except Lumen. Using her Muse Septima, Lumen restored the others sight and increased their power. Copen used the Rising Cyclone Ex weapon to deliver the final blow.
"Phew, glad we finally got that data. Though it looks even more heavily encrpted than the others." Lola commented.
After returning to the sanatorium, everyone noticed how late it was. Copen stayed up decrypting the data whiel everyone else returned to their homes. Atari entered her apartment, only to find it completely devoid of any signs of life. Gunvolt was walking by and stopped to talk with Atari after he noticed her.
"What happened to my apartment?" Atari squeaked.
"The landlord found out you were an Adept." Gunvolt stated.
"Then why haven't you and Joule been kicked out?" Atari wondered.
"I don't know, what I do know is you'll have to find somewhere else to stay. If you're seen around my apartment, Joule and I might get evicted." Gunvolt answered.
Atari began to shake nervously.
"I'll have to stay at the sanatorium." Atari panicked.
"You can stay for the night since it's so dark outside." Gunvolt supposed.
Atari ran to Gunvolt's apartment and waited outside the door. After Gunvolt opened the door, Atari hid behind him.
"What are you doing?" Gunvolt questioned.
"I still remember coming here with you the first time. I hid behind you. It'll make Joule happy to see me so it might negate her sadness from hearing I got evicted."Atari explained before walking into the apartment as Gunvolt closed the door.
"Atari! W-what are you doing here!?" Joule exclaimed.
"I got evicted, I'll have to move into the sanatorium tomorrow." Atari sighed.
"You can sleep on the floor in my room." Joule offered. Atari shook her head.
"I'll just sleep on the couch." Atari denied.
Joule got Atari an extra blanket and pillow from her room. In the morning, Gunvolt and Joule went with Atari to the sanatorium.
"I guess this really is my last resort." Atari pouted.
Just then, Gunvolt got a phone call.
"Hello?" Gunvolt greeted.
"Hey Geeves, I heard Lily got kicked out of her apartment. Tell her if she wants she can stay at my place." Zeno notified.
"I'll put you on speaker so you can tell her yourself." Gunvolt informed.
"Hey Lily, I just wanted to tell you my house is available if you want to stay with me." Zeno offered.
"Sure, i-if that's okay with you." Atari agreed.
"I'm on my way to the sanatorium right now. Maybe later we can get some stuff to decorate the room." Zeno suggested.
"Alright, I'll see you soon." Atari confirmed.
"Ah, young love." Lumen teased.
"Love? What's that? is that some kind of insult?" Atari pondered.
"It's nothing." Lumen giggled.
"Sorry I'm late, I had to get some things together." Xiao apologized.
"All we're waiting on now is Zeno." Gunvolt stated.
"GV told me about what happened with your apartment, I'm sorry about that Lily." Xiao notified.
"It's alright, Zeno said I could stay with him." Atari smiled.
"The data I've collected shows that we need to go to one more facility to get the password." Copen elucidated.
"I wonder why they had so many passwords to get the location. Maybe the Sumeragi wanted to fool us." Atari rambled.
"It seems that way, this facility is the last one for certain before we get the facility location. It's the Sumeragi's Omega facility." Copen confirmed.
"How far is it from here?" Gunvolt questioned.
"It's 45 minutes away, it shouldn't take long to get the data and come back." Copen replied.
"After this can you all take a break? You've all been working yourselves to the bones. I'm worried somebody's going to pass out from exhaustion or something. Resting helps make you more alert and function better." Atari fumed.
"That may be true, but the quicker we get this done, the easier and longer we can rest." Copen denied.
"Whatever helps you sleep at night." Atari muttered angrily.
Zeno walked in to see Copen staring at Atari with resentment. Believing that literally getting in the way would help, Zeno stepped in front of Atari.
"We'd better get going, it's best you stay here with Mytyl again, can't have you causing any trouble. We'll need you as backup Zeno." Copen remarked.
Atari had a fist balled up, luckily Mytyl heard the commotion, saw Atari looking at Copen with a balled up fist and ran to her.
"We'll be back soon Mytyl, don't worry." Copen reassured as he left with Gunvolt and Zeno.
