Outside the control room...

"C'mon, let's go. The map is this way" Mikan immediately walked towards the map when Natsume suddenly stops her as he asked,

"Wait, what about the antidote, not only for Ruka but Hotaru and Sophie?"

"Don't worry about that - it's already kept secure in our bag. We've received it earlier from a certain someone. Rather, did you already start causing short circuits in the wiring?" Amy inquire. Knowing that the antidote was already in their hand- though he had no idea how he was still glad. He then nodded as he reply,

"Yeah I'm already on it, the chain of explosion should start anytime soon. Btw Ruka come here, let me carry you" he offer, as he walked towards Ruka, offering to help Ruka walked towards the map. Tsubasa immediately intercepts as he offers to carry Ruka on his back. Tsubasa added,

"No, let me carry him for you. Instead, you will just focus on destroying the base to stall time and help Amy guarded any incoming attack" Tsubasa offered, not only because he is strong enough to carry Ruka, but also to make sure Natsume doesn't strain himself too much. His Alice consumes his life force after all and he's the only one with a more flexible Alice that could be of help to Amy. Understanding Tsubasa intention, Natsume slowly nodded. For the first time, perhaps just a little, he is grateful to have an older person he could trust.

Though it's only just a bit.

But it's a progress nevertheless. Natsume just quietly say under his breath,

"...thanks"

Then, Tsubasa carried Ruka- who was already half-conscious on his back with the penguin in his hand, they all started to run towards the map. However, the usually quiet penguin from earlier suddenly struggled, trying to wriggle out of Tsubasa's arm. Feeling a bit troubled, Tsubasa said,

"Penguin. Quit it. We're in hurry right now"

But the penguin continues to struggle until he jumps out of his arm and clung to Amy's left arm. Amy just sigh and pick him up. His sudden jumpy behaviour causes slight discomfort in her. She said as she carried penguin,

"We don't have much time, what are you doin-?!" Amy stops midsentence when the penguin suddenly slaps something away from Amy's neck. Looking back, Amy saw a black thing called down.

"Wha-? A spider? When did it..." A surge of worries suddenly arise- how and why...

"Are you ok amy? Did the spider bite you?" Tsubasa worriedly asked. He also never notice it. But penguin did. How?

"That's the thing, even my barrier didn't detect it... but I should be fine though. I don't feel any pain. And the spider looks like a regular spider... Still, Thanks, penguin" she pats the penguin ever so slightly. Penguin just snuggles her neck. Perhaps showing affection or worries?

Then the building started to shook as explosions started to chain one to another. Meanwhile, Mikan who was already far ahead with Natsume on tow quickly look back and urge them to hurry.

"Quickly, everything starts to crack."

"Yeah, let's go."

And so they ran towards it when a group of men appear chasing behind them. Amy immediately cast a solid wall dividing them from their pursuers as Tsubasa look around at the map.

"It should be this one! Come!" and the portal open upon Tsubasa's touched, leading them to their safety. Natsume and Ruka (with the help of Natsume) jumped in first, followed by Mikan, and Tsubasa held out his hand towards Amy. Amy, finally smile a relief. Finally...

'Thankfully, all went well...ouch!' there's a sudden sting at the back of her neck. She touch the spot where the spider was when an explosion occurred right behind her. It creates a very strong impact hitting her from the back and she blacked out.

Meanwhile, in the control room,

"What are you guys stalling around here for! Go chase them!!"Medusa roared. They were all then ready to chase and search for them when the screen one by one blacked out. Series of explosions chained causing destruction to the control room and the hideout as a whole.

"Hey, you! Report!" Medusa instructs one of the officers to monitor the screen and system. Slightly stutter, he reply,

"Sir, it seems that our wiring has been burned down and several places including the engine went up in fire. We need to evacuate sir. The whole place will be burned down in less than 10 minutes sir!"

"!!" medusa could only gnash his teeth in anger. There's no doubt, it's the work of the black cat.

"Fine, let's leave this place. We will put their name in the red list and tracked them down- especially the cat boy, the shield girl the nullification gir- cough!" surge of pain coarse through him from his torso. A solid knife went through it. He was stabbed by none other than the Azumi Yuka.

"I should have disposed of you when- cough when you lied!!"

"Unfortunately it's too late. Farewell, and as that girl say, let's never meet again." yuka coldly said, as she took a few of his blood into a vial.

"You think you will be safe-! watch your back, Azumi yuka!" were his last words. Yuka and Shiki teleported away, ignoring him and the rest.

"You set off the explosion too early, Shiki" Yuka said. Shiki just shook his head as he replies "It's definitely the black cat. Or perhaps that shield girl pointed out the location of those explosions to him" this Yuka fall into contemplation. Yuka then slowly nodded.

"...yeah, if it's them, it's possible."

"So what are we going to do next?" Shiki asked. Then Yuka replied,

"Let's head to the academy and listen to what she has to say to us... also, I almost forgot, but it seems that Silver was not there earlier? Where did that man go?"

Shiki shook his head. By the time the explosion started, Silver was no longer found. It was unthinkable for Silver to betray Medusa or Z but perhaps there's another story behind it...

Somewhere dark, hidden away from others, a man with his hair tied to his back slowly extend his hand towards the spider that crawl towards him. This spider may look harmless- but it's a special type of spider.

The kind that only that man can control.

He slowly lower his lips and gently kissed the head of the spider. Upon touch, the spider slowly disintegrated and disappear. The man looks up to the sky as he says,

"Hope you like the little gift I left you, O' eldest daughter of Tsuyuri family."

And then he teleported away.
