The gray skies covered the sky as the fog started to form around the sea. In the middle of the sea stood a ship, the ship was broken with most of its parts in the water. The engines were down and there was fire surrounding the deck. On the deck lay a girl with blood at her side. In-front of her was another girl leaning against the wall. The other girl was also hurt however there was no blood, but parts of her body were disappearing and looked liked pieces. She panted heavily as she stared at the girl in-front of her.

"It's over…" she said to herself. She could barely keep her eyes open. She gently shut them in order to rest but she suddenly awoke from the noises around her. 'The ship is trying to reform… I have to stop it' she thought. She started to crawl. "I just have to get it to the core." She continued to crawl until she reached the stairs. She reached up and grabbed the railings and pulled herself up. There was a sudden shake in the ship causing her to fall on the steps. She desperately grabbed on the railings and climbed up. When she reached the top she fell to the ground panting. She looked at her hands. They were fading.

"I have to hurry." She cried suddenly blue rings surrounded her. "Time set…. 5 minutes till…" before she could finish she heard a call sound. She reached her hand up and tapped on the answer button due to her previous battle the sound had been damaged.

"Io -, are you ok?" a male picture came on the screen.

She smiled gently and said yes. The man continued to ask her what was wrong and why she had not returned yet. His tone sounded worried as well as the look on his face.

"I'm fine." She said looking at the core figure in-front of her. "I'm only a few inches away." She continued to crawl stretching her hands even further.

"Why don't you walk it'll…"

"I would but my legs…" she laughed. "Your legs?" the man asked, looking down. He gasped horror and noticed that her legs were gone up to her knees. She continued to crawl while looking at the timer, 4 minutes she panted reaching out. She finally reached the core and sat beside it.

"Ok you're there, now get off the ship!" the male cried. She placed the bomb down and nodded but before she could move again she suddenly stopped feeling a pain in her arm. She looked at it and saw that it started to dissolve. She looked in the direction of the attack. It was that girl. 'She's regenerating faster than I thought. The girl loaded 2 other arrows and fired at her. She managed to blocked one but the other hit her waist.

"I - - a, hurry get off the boat!" with her last strength she used her remaining hand to launch an attack at the girl causing her to fall down to the deck again. She fell down and lay on the ground, no longer having the strength to move. She glanced at the timer, 2 minutes left. She also smiled and sighed. 'I wouldn't have enough time anyway.'

"Hurry Ion-, the bomb will activate soon!" the male cried. She only shook her head and smiled, "Gunzou I can't even move anymore." She said, she saw that the ship was fighting back. She slowly moved her hand and made a sword for it.

"Gunzou…" she smiled, "Thank you for helping me learn emotions. Thank you for teaching what is means to be alive…" she said raising her weapon.

The man froze at the sight. "Io - -, what are you doing?" he asked.

"The ships fighting back, I have to land one more attack." She said.

"Don't be crazy! Just hold on we'll attack from the outside, just get off the ship now!"

She closed her eyes "Live on… I'll never forget you…" she smiled

"Wait… a sec… you can't just…"

"Sayonara…. Gunzou…." With that she stabbed the boat and using the attack at full power.

She felt the ship collapsed around her. She felt herself disappearing and her sight getting weaker. She slowly gasped as she started to fade. The last thing she heard before falling hitting the water was a man's voice crying out the name 'Iona'. And the only thing she can think of is 'who is that… who is it?'
