It was a dawn of a new day after the defeat of Bloody Mary. The students and mages of Mahora have all been cured thanks to the assistance of Nocturne and everyone returns to their normal lives.

Inside Setsuna's dorm, Chie begins to pack her things as today is her last day in Mahora. After a serious battle against Mary, Chie's wounds healed up thanks to her healing factor and the rest was patched up by Eliza.

"Are we really going to leave this place, Big Sis?" Nanako asked while she swings her legs.

"Yeah, our mission is over. So there's no need for us to stay any longer." Chie replied as she placed her katana inside her guitar case.

"But, everyone would be sad to see you leave, Big Sis." Nanako said.

"I know, but it's Master's orders. We can't change his mind once he give us our task." Chie said. "I know we'll miss them, but we will only make things harder if we were to stay any longer."

"Oh..." Nanako looked down sadly, agreeing on Chie's decision. She then realize something. "Oh yeah, that reminds me! The ice lady wants to talk to you, Big Sis." She said.

"Eva?"

She finished packing her things and heads straight to Eva's cabin. She knocks on the door and it opens to reveal Chachamaru.

"Uh hi, Eva wanted to see me so, here I am." She said.

"I will notify Master immediately." Chachamaru replied as she let her in.

Chie followed Chachamaru to Eva's resort and they are transported inside. After entering the resort, they heads towards the castle balcony where Eva lounges on her chair, accompanied by both Ako and Akira still under her control.

"Master, Chie has arrived." Chachamaru said.

"Good, you may take a seat, Chie." Eva said.

Chie does what she says and takes a seat. She felt uneasy seeing both Ako and Akira serving Eva as she commands Ako to fetch her a cup of tea, which she obeyed. Ako then returns and pours a cup of black tea and sets it near her.

"Eva..."

"What is it?" She asked. "Are you concerned about my servants?"

"Well kind of. Why are you still controlling them even though the war is over?" Chie asked with concern. "They're your classmates so..."

"Because, I want to have a bit of fun with them a little longer. Besides, it's fun to see his reaction seeing his fellow students under my control again." Eva replied with a sly grin, referencing Negi.

"Uh-huh..." Chie said as a bead of sweat slides down from her head. "Anyways, you wanted to see me right?"

"Yes. The reason I called you here because I have a favor to ask you." Eva replied.

"That is?"

"I want you to fight me, one last time."

Chie was surprised by Eva's request. "Fight you? But why?"

Eva flashed a grin at her and replied. "Because, I wanted the thrill to fight you not as Scarlet, but as you. I wanted to see who's the strongest: you, Chie Izayoi or me, the Dark Evangel."

"But didn't we settled this before?" Chie said.

"That's only because Scarlet interfered and beat me, that victory doesn't count." Eva replied. "But now that you have your powers as Scarlet back and your newly formed Pactio with your dhampir partner, I want to settle our score once and for all!"

Chie sighed. "I don't have any choice, don't I? Fine, let's settle this, Eva...!"

Eva grinned as they both get up from their seats and moves to the courtyard. Chie then summons Sinclair as Eva creates an ice rapier.

"Are you prepared to lose, Chie?" Eva said.

Chie shook her head. "No, are you?"

Eva chuckled grimly. "Oh, I wouldn't say the same. This is going to be the most fun I had since fighting with Springfield! Now then, en garde!"

They both dashed at each other and clashed their swords, glaring down at each other as they are in a blade lock.

Meanwhile inside the school, Class 3-A, Negi and Vincent continues to teach the class with the notable absence of Chie, Eva, Chachamaru, Ako, and Akira. After a long lesson, Negi begins to make his announcement to them.

"I have an announcement, class. As of now, you all welcomed Chie with open arms as our new student, I could've said the same to Mr. Noctis but...anyways, moving on. I have some sad news regarding both Chie and Mr. Noctis but, I would like to have him give you the message." He said as he passes on to Vincent.

"As of today, this will be my final teaching days as Mr. Springfield's aide. This will be also the final day of Chie's attendance in Mahora academy, you all are aware of her absence as she remains in her dorm packing her things.

The class became surprised about the news and begins to murmur.

"I know this is hard on you but, since the rest of you are aware of our identities, it's safe for me to say that our business here in Mahora are finished, we're no longer needed to stay here any longer." Vincent said.

"That's a lot of bullcrap! Chie can't just leave after all she's done for us!" Asuna shot angrily at Vincent, enraged upon hearing the news.

"While I don't like saying this, I agree with her! As class representative, I say that Chie is allowed to stay here as a student of 3-A!" Ayaka said.

"I know that you're all upset on Chie's departure, but this is the Director's orders, you can't deny the fact that our mission is complete." Vincent said.

"Girls, you have to understand. I know that it's sad to see her go, I'm sad to see her go myself but, this is her decision." Negi said.

"But, she has done so much for us. Is she really going to leave without saying good-bye?" Konoka said sadly.

"Ojou-sama..."

"She saved us from her control, and I want to repay her for doing so!" Nodoka said.

Everyone agrees as Negi tries to make them settle down.

"Well, if all of you are really that insistent, then I suggest writing a thank you card is an order." Vincent said.

"That's a great idea! We should all pitch in and write her a thank you card for all she's done for us!" Negi said with glee.

"I'd like the sound of that. It would really be a shame for her to just leave without hearing our thanks!" Kazumi said.

"Yeah, let's all write our names on a card!" Fuka chirped.

They all chattered happily as Negi go and get a blank card.

At Lune's house, Julia handed Kanon her book, with a giant hole by Mary's spear piercing it.

"Here you go, I'm really sorry about your book, Kanon." She said apologetically.

"It's okay, Miss Asagi gave me a copy containing all of my mom's spells." Kanon replied, smiling.

"And thank god for that, if she hadn't copied all her spell to another book, then our mom's spells would've been lost forever." Lune said.

"Well, I'm glad that they're all safe." Julia said. "Well, I have to go now. I'll see you again, Kanon."

"Good-bye, Julia!" Kanon said, waving good-bye.

Julia smiled softly at Kanon as she leaves her house. She walked to Drake's bike as he sits patiently watching her leave.

"All set to go?" Drake asked.

Julia nodded her head. "All set." She replied. She sits behind him and grab on to his waist as Drake revs his bike and rides away from Lune's house.

"Drake..."

"Yeah?"

"Do you think humans and vampires should live in peace?" She asked.

Drake is slightly baffled upon Julia's words but stayed silent as he focus on the road.

"I know that you don't like vampires but, there are good vampires that we met and Alucard really helped us on our battle. I know you wouldn't agree but..."

"Julia."

She perks up, awaiting Drake's answer.

"I know you feel that way, I know that there are some that are willing to help others despite their differences. But, there are still some that threatens humanity and it's up to us to stop them. We're vampire hunters, Julia, our priorities comes first. You should already know that." Drake said.

"Oh, I see." She said.

"But still, if there are poor few, I can't turn my back on them. Even if they are out to kill me but is unable to fight, I won't raise my whip against them, it's not who I am." Drake said.

"Drake..."

"Julia, when we get back, could you whip up your homemade pot roast for me? I haven't ate anything since we got here."

Julia beamed a smile at him and replied. "Alright."

They rode down the road as they entered the city.

Back at the resort, Chie and Eva continued their battle as they clashed their blades. Eva then fired a barrage of ice arrows at Chie as she sliced them all down and launched an air wave at her.

"Lilium Dance: First Movement - Allegro Tempest!" She launched a petal twister at Eva, trapping her. Eva however, casts a spell and frozed the petals and launched them at Chie. She deflects all of them and blocks Eva's incoming attack.

"You're getting better, Chie, but not good enough!" Eva struck Chie with a hard kick to her side and send her falling to the ground. Chie quickly recovers looks up, but failed to see Eva appearing behind her. She widened her eyes upon hearing her incantation.

"Lic Lac La Lac Lilac... Veniant Spiritus Glaciales Obscuratione! Cum Obscuratione Flet Temptestas Nivalis. Nivis Temptestas Obscurans!" She blast Chie with a mighty snowstorm, trapping her in a frozen wave of ice.

"What's the matter? Giving up so soon, Chie?" Eva taunted at the frozen Chie.

"(Adeat...!)"

Suddenly, Chie's frozen prison shattered as Chie went to her Pactio form. She spreads her angelic wings as she glares at Eva with her slit-pupiled eyes.

"So, you've unleashed your powers huh? Then allow me to unleash mine! Pro Armatione, 'Queen of Ice'!" Ice wings forms behind Eva as she emits an icy aura, freezing the entire courtyard. "Let's see if you handle fighting me in my playing field!" She slams her hand down at the icy field and pillars of ice erupts from the ground surrounding Chie.

"This is nothing, I'll show you that even a single lily can bloom in this frozen field!" Chie said as her pendant transforms into her armor. "Lilium Dance: Third Movement - Ebony Sonata!" She plants her sword down and shadowy vines erupts past the pillars and heads straight towards Eva. She simply grinned and freeze the shadows but fails to notice Chie breaking free from her prison as she dashed towards her and strikes her down, but Eva blocks her with her rapier.

Over time, they went on to their battle until Chie became exhausted as her breath is visible on the frozen climate.

"I grew tired of this battle, let say we end this!" Eva said.

"I could say the same thing...!" Chie replied as they both charged at each other and land their attacks. As they sliced past each other, Chie's armor shattered in ice, reducing to her ribbon dress as Eva's wings dissolves and she collapsed to her knees.

"Looks like I won." Chie said as she reverts to her Nocturne uniform and her wings changed back. "I guess that settles it then."

Eva scoffed. "I only let you win. But then again, you have grown since we last met many years ago."

It was then that Chachamaru, Ako, and Akira jumps down and tend to her wound.

"Mistress, are you hurt?" Ako asked.

"I'm fine, I only felt a bruise on my side." Eva replied. "Then again, why didn't you used the sharp end of your blade?"

Chie smiled lightly at Eva and replied. "I'm not that kind of person I used to be. I'm just a servant of Alucard."

Eva smiled back at her. "You really are naïve since your reawakening."

Chie then leaves Eva's cabin and heads back to Setsuna's dorm where she finish packing the rest of her things. She gazed at Nanako who continues to sit on Setsuna's bed watching Chie packing her things.

"All set to go, Nanako?" She asked.

Nanako replied and flashed a toothy smile at her. "All ready to go, Big Sis!"

Chie nodded her head and leaves the room along with Nanako, she shuts the door on her way out and exit the dorm. The evening sky gives off an orange color as Chie and Nanako meets Vincent at the main building.

"Finish packing your belongings, Chie?" He asked.

Chie nodded her head. "Yeah, I'm ready to go." She replied.

"Are you quite sure you want to leave without saying farewell to your classmates? They are sad to see you go." Vincent said.

Chie shook her head. "No, that would make it even harder for me to leave."

"I see...then shall we head back to Nocturne?" Vincent said.

Chie nodded her head and followed him to the city. They walked their way to the academy entrance when they stopped upon hearing a cry to stop them.

"Chie wait!"

Chie turned around and see's Negi and the rest of 3-A behind her as Negi holds a card on his hand.

"So you're really going to leave without saying a word?" Negi asked sadly.

"Sorry, but if I did, then that would make it harder for me to stay." Chie replied.

Setsuna shook her head. "That's very selfish of you, Chie. You're going to leave without hearing our thanks?" She said.

"Your thanks? For what?"

"For saving our school after the whole crazy incident, duh! We even wrote you a card!" Asuna replied as she tells Negi to give it to her. He does so and hands her the card. Chie opens it and became very surprised on the many signatures inside upon the quote that says 'Thank you for everything!'. Chie's eyes begins to water as she stare at the card.

"Big Sis, what's wrong? You're crying." Nanako said upon seeing her tears.

Chie shook her head and replied. "I'm fine...I'm crying out of happiness seeing this card, that's all."

"You're sad that you won't be seeing them again upon the completion of our mission are you, Chie?" Vincent said.

"You could say that..."

Negi shook his head. "That's not true. Even if you leave, you will always be our student, Chie. You're not alone, we will always be in your heart."

"Sensei...thanks." Chie said as she wipes off her tears.

"Hey, if you need our help, give us a call. Don't forget to write us a letter!" Asuna said grinning.

Chie nods her head. "I will!"

"Now then, shall we get going? The Director is growing impatient." Vincent asked.

Chie nodded her head. "Yeah. Well, this is goodbye. I'll come back to visit when I have free time on my hand!"

"Until we meet again, Chie!" Negi said as tears began to form in his eyes as he and most of 3-A sends Chie a tearful farewell as she, Nanako, and Vincent leaves Mahora and on their way back to Nocturne Headquarters.

It was a dark night, the full moon shines down upon an empty city as a woman runs for her life. She takes a sharp turn to the right but ends up in a dead-end as she is cornered by a vampire approaching her. He inches closer to her neck as his fangs is near the bare skin but he suddenly jumps back and avoids an incoming knife between them. He looks up and see's a silhouette and hissed before he makes his escape. The vampire escaped his pursuer when he is suddenly met by two more silhouettes standing on top of a building. The cloud moves away from the moon, revealing both Chie and Lune staring down at their target.

"Looks like this is the one." Lune said. "He even match the description."

The vampire tries to escape, but Grant, Nanako, and Vincent surrounds him, blocking his escape.

"You're not getting away, pal, your days are numbered!" Grant said.

Lune cracked his knuckles. "Alright, you ready for this, partner?"

Chie nodded her head. "Yeah, ready when you are!" She pulled out her Pactio card and shouted "Adeat!" transforming herself into her Pactio form as she wields Sinclair. "By the orders of Nocturne, you are wanted dead or alive for all the crimes you've committed!" She declared as she and Lune jumped off the building and they both attacked the vampire.
