we wanna be there even if we had to twist the world all around to get there
without you, i guess i couldn't even find the future here today
i was always trying to take nothing for granted
for the day i might lose them
but you just came in to my black and white monochrome destiny
and colored it all over
we won't be satisfied with the routine future
we were born to make a new history come true
there's absolutely no absolute thing in this world
this road goes on forever
as long as we won't give up

"Battle Festival"
Well?
She's behaving herself.
She may be grounded, but there's no need to stand guard, right?
There's no choice.
Sid-sensei has been killed, Meme is missing, and Anya is going home.
We may not know exactly what's going on,
but the fact that Meme is one of their suspects is...
Where's Anya?
It sounds like her escort is here. From DWMA, straight to the airport.
I heard she won't be stopping by here.
Yes?
Princess, let's be off.
Th-Thank you...
I will be taking Sid's place and heading things up for a while.
I'm sorry about all this, but...
...if you would.
Right.
Their Various Resolves!
Traffic jam, huh?
It's the Battle Festival.
Now, of all times...
That's the kind of school this is.
Kill them... Kill them... Killed... Kill... Kill them...
Kill them...
- The real harvest festival starts right now. - Killed... Kill them... Kill...
Huh?!
Are they DWMA students, too?
Watch yourself.
They're acting strangely.
Poison?!
What the...?
It looks like they're making their move.
Damn!
You would assault me, knowing that I am the Lightning King Commander?!
Ox!
Are you okay?!
Let me take care of this! You hurry up and get to safety!
Ox, sir, get in the car, quickly!
Don't open that!
Please, do not die!
Start driving!
What's going on here?
Everyone who comes after me, whoever they are, I'll kick their butts!
Don't go overdoing it.
Just leave it to me!
What in the world is going on?!
Give me a situation report!
NOT students are running wild all over the place!
We can't make contact with the Battle Festival grounds!
Getting multiple assistance calls from the police!
Any witch readings?
Unable to verify.
Contact Dr. Stein!
Yes, ma'am.
Call an emergency summons! Get everyone in here!
This year's Battle Festival is getting really charged up, huh?
This is no time for jokes!
How is the antidote coming?
I've got some fine samples here.
Just a little bit longer.
Forgive me, but please hurry!
Man, what a slave driver.
The girls' dorm is being locked down?
What's going on?
I don't know all the details,
but the Battle Festival grounds are under attack all over.
And you're saying we may be under attack here, as well?
What's worse, the ones doing the attacking appear to be NOT students.
In any event,
to keep the casualties from spreading any further,
no one will be allowed in or out of the girls' dorm for a while.
You think this is the doing of that witch?
Yow-w-w...
What are you doing?!
I have to go!
Huh?
Meme could be out there!
You can't! We're not allowed out of the girls' dorm today!
And you're grounded in the first place.
Even so, I have to go.
Meme is waiting for me.
What can you do all by yourself?
I won't be alone! Miss Anya is out there, too!
But she's well on her way to the airport.
Still, I made a promise!
I promised that I'd pick either Miss Anya or Meme as my partner
by the end of the day!
I still haven't told either one how I feel!
Have you decided on one or the other?
Not yet.
Ow!
Calm down a bit, will you?
Still, somehow, I can tell...
Miss Anya isn't going to leave us here and go home.
When Mr. Clay snapped at Miss Anya, she was probably very mad.
About how everyone was secretly deciding things without asking her,
and mad at herself, for not realizing it sooner.
It must have been awfully frustrating.
When I called out to her, and she didn't look back at me,
she probably just didn't want me to see her...
...crying out of frustration.
That's why Miss Anya... won't go home feeling the way she does.
Soul resonance?
Kim...
Tsugumi, this is not a game.
I know.
Even so...
Well, your injury's no big deal.
Right! It's all about mind over matter!
Ow!
Don't get in over your head. You're still a weakling.
Sure about this?
I know what she's going through.
Wanting to protect someone dear to her, even if it means breaking rules.
Housemaster!
Miss Tsugumi...
I'm sorry, but I simply must...
It's all right. Go ahead.
Huh?
Such vitality is just right for the Commoner of Flanders!
This is just the Mary that I wanted!
Okay...
Need this?
No, thanks.
Please stop the car.
Huh?
I have to stay at Miss Tsugumi's side right now.
Are you still on about that?
You know, I...
...feel just as sad about Sid-sensei being killed as you do.
Especially since it was Miss Meme...
Right now, with the people I care for suffering,
there's no way I can leave them and go home, is there?!
Even so...
Just like earlier! Why didn't you help Mr. Ox?!
That was...
I'm still a DWMA student!
Please stop treating me like a helpless little girl!
Hurry up and stop! Alfred, that's an order!
Princess! Please, stop that!
H-Hey!
Now!
Everyone stopped coming, huh? Even after we did all this decorating.
The Battle Festival is in full swing, huh?
Miss Liz! Miss Patty!
Oh, Tsugumi...
What's wrong?
Miss Liz! I need to ask you for something!
Candy?
No, not that. Miss Anya is going back to her home,
and is headed to the airport. I want to go and get her,
but there's too much going on in town!
The buses aren't running, but still, I have to go...
Stop hounding us and get to the point!
Master!
Trick or Treat!
Hmm?
We need to borrow your scooter.
Huh?
Just make sure to be careful.
Let us worry about that!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Stay outta my way, or you're dead!
Hey! Miss Liz!
It doesn't look like we'll get it running again.
No.
I'll call and get us another car.
I'm going back to town.
Huh? Hey!
One moment please, Princess.
Our mission is to see you safely to the airport.
We cannot very well say "Oh, all right," and allow you to go back.
You understand, don't you?
No, I don't!
If your mission is to give up your lives, abandon your friends,
and renounce yourselves, body and soul,
then you should toss it down the drain!
I see we have little choice, huh?
Hey...
Clay, you stay there and watch.
We can't very well turn your blade toward the unarmed princess.
I don't need your pity! This is a real fight!
If this were a real fight, you wouldn't issue such a warning,
my proud princess.
I am going back to Miss Tsugumi, no matter what I have to do.
I cannot let you go.
Oh, my! What's a witch doing over there?!
Where?!
Hey, that was sneaky!
Let me go! I'll bite my tongue and kill myself!
Even if you do go back, Harudori may have already given up.
That is quite impossible!
Miss Tsugumi is definitely waiting for me to return...
Miss Anya!
Miss Anya! And Akane, too!
What are you doing?! There's a crisis going on!
This is no time for you to be making out!
Making out?
Miss Tsugumi, I'm sorry for everything.
It's all right. Never mind that, we have to hurry and find Meme.
Right!
What will you do when you find her?
Unless you can release Tatane from Shaula's mind control,
you'll just end up killing each other.
Besides, Shaula could be at Tatane's side.
Huh?
For Shaula, who is using Soul Protect to hide herself from DWMA,
and is thus unable to use magic,
Tatane would be a special pawn.
In order to maximize her power, there's a high probability
that she is overseeing things from a distance where she can directly control everything.
Even so...
Maybe we can't do anything about it,
but right now, all we can do is try to find Meme!
Let's go, Miss Tsugumi!
Mm-hmm! Then again...
Three people aren't gonna fit on this.
Miss Tsugumi, turn into a flying halberd!
Huh? I can't!
Remember Miss Jacqueline! Imagine it!
Mm-hmm!
Miss Tsugumi, I believe in your power.
Knowing you, Miss Tsugumi, I'm sure you can fly.
You did it!
Whoa, the balance is tricky.
Is that...
Soul resonance.
Huh?
When a meister and weapon are in close harmony with each other,
they impart each other's feelings, and are able to share imaginations.
Soul resonance?
Dr. Stein is making an antidote based on Tatane's blood sample.
Huh?!
Hey, Akane!
If I know Dr. Stein, he has just about completed it.
Hold on!
Miss Anya, hop on!
Right!
Be careful, Harudori and Anya.
Right!
Here we go!
Miss Anya, could you hop off, and give us a running start?
Okay!
Fly!
Miss Tsugumi!
Good luck!
Aren't you a bit soft on Harudori?
Am I? Harudori is cute, isn't she?
That doesn't make it right.
We should get back to DWMA, too.
Yeah.
Wah! Miss Tsugumi, go slower! The brakes! The brakes!
Brakes?!
I see.
So please, give us the antidote!
Nice and frank. Hmm, what should I do?
What kind of indecisive attitude is that?! Every second counts!
There are two reasons why I shouldn't give this to you.
Want to hear them?
Hurry!
Number one: At most, this drug only breaks down the toxin inside,
but its effects on any mind control are still unclear.
There's a chance it has no effect, of course...
...and in the worst-case scenario, she could die.
Die?!
Okay, I'm joking about that.
Is this any time to be joking?!
- If you don't cut it out, I'll take that screw in your head and...
- What's the second? - If you don't cut it out, I'll take that screw in your head and...
Naigus-sensei is currently on her way over from DWMA
to pick up this sample.
- Huh? - Mnh?
She'll take this sample with her,
then after verifying its effectiveness in actual use,
she'll mass produce it... and you'll get it in about three days.
What if something happens to Meme in the meantime?!
Dr. Stein...
The sample!
What are you doing in here?
We came to get the antidote so we could save Miss Meme!
You're supposed to be on your way to the airport, right?
Don't try anything foolish, and just do as you're told.
We're going to go test the drug's effectiveness on Miss Meme! So...
Don't be ridiculous! What do you think you can do?!
You have to trust us! We're fighting against the same enemy!
The enemy may be the same, but we want to protect something else!
The toxin should start being neutralized as soon as she takes it.
Go on, go on!
We're sorry! We promise, we'll bring Meme back!
Hold it!
Dr. Stein, what do you think you're...
There we are...
It's fun to tease the girls, isn't it?
We have to find Miss Meme quickly.
It probably won't do any good to search for her at random.
But we don't have any other way.
Unless, maybe...
What is it?
Clay said that there's a high probability
that Meme was at Shaula's side, remember?
Yes.
Then if we find Shaula first...
Is there a way to find a witch?
A messenger bat!
Huh?
That one was better than the one before, right?
In what way?!
Miss Anya, hurry! We're going after it!
Geez!
Now, kill each other!
Color the town red with your blood,
and blot out order with insanity!
Kill them...
- No one will be allowed to sleep. - Kill them... Killed them... Kill them...
- The festival ends, and the curtain now rises on chaos. - Kill them... Killed them...
Kill... Kill them...
Miss Meme!
Meme! We're here!
Kill them... Kill them... Killed them... Kill... Kill them...
With a big wave and a "See you,"
let's meet in the new day
Our shadows stretch along the pavement
coming together, then apart, then together
What do I say when the road home ends?
You are not alone. Nope, right nearby,
there are eyes looking back at you
And just like a miracle,
they can turn even failures into laughter
Thank you for a fun day
Let's do it again tomorrow
We'll open a brand-new door
chasing after dreams and love
and those nameless feelings, too
Under the witch's control, Meme attacks us!
Miss Tsugumi, stay back! I will stop Miss Meme!
Stop! I don't want to hurt anyone else...
Here goes, everyone!
We're going to take back our cheerful lives!
Next time; Soul Resonance!
