There is... nothing left for me any more.
Really, such a poor girl.
Being left sick, and losing your parents in a plane crash...
Though, you don't have anything to worry about here, with the doctors available at all times, right?
Indeed! That's very true!
Well, we'll stop by to check up on you once in a while. Okay, Chiho-chan?
After that, they only came to visit me when they wanted to discuss the sale of the house.
Yes... I've lost my parents, and I've lost the house we lived in as well.
I don't have... anything left.
That is what I thought.
Until I met her.

Tenth Wing
The Ending Sky
Onee-chan, how long have you been sick?
Since the day I was born.
Since... you were born?
Yes. But I never thought I was unfortunate because my parents took very good care of me.
Where are your mom and dad?
They're not here anymore.
Not here?
Are you alone?
I'm not...
I still have Uzume-chan by my side.
Uzume, tell us your reason! Why must you fight us?
My reason? There's only one reason possible, isn't there?
Because... we are Sekirei!
That time, I finally realized the reason why I was born.
Honestly, why do the tenants of this inn have to do the shopping?
You're always just lazing around anyway, aren't you?
Lazing around...?
Listen here, Miya...
Oh, right! I wonder if I already received the last month's rent from you...
Oh, okay! I'll dash for it right away!
Being a Sekirei sure is handy at times like these.
Well, I don't feel like participating in the Sekirei Project at all...
But in that case... I wonder why I was actually born?
This is the shopping I did...
Huh?
I-Is that...?
No!
Don't get tangled up!
Huh?
Wha- Wait!
I have no idea what happened, but suicide won't solve anything!
Huh?
Just as I thought...
This girl is...
My...
Who are you...?
What's your name?
It's... Chiho.
I found you.
Excuse me?
The reason for me to live, perhaps.
That's right, it's to protect Chiho!
Uzume-san, you're serious about this, right?
I am.
You're absolutely serious, right?
Yes, I am...
You're absolutely, completely sure that you're serious, right?
You're so annoying!
Then I shall fight you, with all my pride as a Sekirei!
I'm strong, you know?
I've gotten stronger from the Landlady's training as well!
Musubi!
Your attitude there gives off a really good vibe!
What's the matter? You should come, too.
One against one is the basic rule of a Sekirei battle.
Since Musubi moved out first, I'll oversee this battle until the end.
Is that so...
She could have just called us out one by one...
I don't know your reasons,
but did you really think that putting yourself in disadvantage would make you feel better about deceiving us?
Stubborn as usual, I see. Though, I guess that's just the way you are, Tsukiumi-tan.
I truly liked all of you!
Where are they?
There's no way No. 10 would succumb to her emotions, as long as her Ashikabi's life is on the line, right?
Ashikabi... Chiho-san's life...
Is that why she asked Musubi-chan and Tsukiumi to...?
A time will come when you'll have to fight, even if you do not want to...
Honestly, why do the bad predictions come true all the time?
You're doing pretty well. I expected nothing less of you, Musubi-tan.
But we're only getting started!
Got you!
Cloth drill!
Musubi-chan!
Minato!
Stop this, please!
This is-
Tsukiumi?
Sekirei fight for the sake of their Ashikabi.
That's what Uzume is doing right now as well.
S-Still... The two of them fighting is just...
Tsu-Tsukiumi...?
Uzume-san, you're really strong!
You finally realized?
But... I won't let you defeat me!
Me neither.
Oh?
Uzume?
This is it, huh?
Uzume-san...
You've really become strong, Musubi-tan...
You're amazing yourself...
Wha- What...?
Musubi-chan!
She used up all of her energy.
This battle ends in a draw.
Musubi!
Tsukiumi!
Y-You scum!
No. 18, Ichiya. I'll be taking your life.
You are...!
No. 16, Toyotama.
As the master commanded, I will erase you.
Water Spear!
Tsukiumi-san!
Tsukiumi!
No!
Don't come any closer!
This is a Sekirei battle!
Tsukiumi! Behind you!
Two against one is a bit unfair, don't you think?
Homura?!
We will be your opponents now.
Kazehana!
Yes. The reinforcements have arrived.
What would you like me to do?
It doesn't matter any more. Retreat.
Understood.
That's the signal to retreat.
Hmph, and it was just getting entertaining.
Running away?!
Oh, no!
Kazehana!
I'll be taking your life!
Musubi-chan!
Uzume-san...
I see! You won't be lonely as long as you have Uu-chan, right?
Yup.
To me... Uzume-chan is the most important person.
That was uncalled for...
Scum, how dare you-!
Kazehana?
Uzume-san...?
The Sekirei crest is...
Yes... No 10. suddenly jumped in and Toyotama...
Oh, well. That works too.
Very well.
Aww... I was supposed to be the one to take care of her...
Well, what a shame.
You were too late, Nee-san.
Honestly...
Wearing only your underwear again?
You really don't care what the public thinks, do you?
Uzume-san...
You protected me, and...
Somehow... My body reacted on its own...
I'm so stupid, aren't I?
Uzume-san...
Say, Sahashi-chan... Can I ask you for a favour?
Could you please help my Chiho?
I don't think I can do anything for her any more...
Instead of me...
But...!
Please. Promise me.
I will.
No matter... No matter what happens, I will definitely protect her.
So don't worry about anything, and just leave it to me.
Chiho, you really like looking up at the sky, don't you?
But...
Hm?
I wonder how many more times I'll get to see it.
Be it one hundred or two hundred times more, I'll show it to you again.
Uzume-chan...?
If it's for you, I'll show you anything.
So...
So... Give your whole self to me, please.
Yep. I will.
I will always, always protect you, okay?
I love you, Chiho.
This wide blue sky... I wish I could've shown her more of it.
Sorry... I'm so sorry, Chiho.
That's why Kuu gave it her best!
You're amazing, Kuu-chan.
Yup!
Huh?
Onee-chan...? Are you crying?
I heard... just now...
This is a farewell... right?
That outfit...
It's hers. Does it suit me?
You've been drinking all night, haven't you?
Have I?
You took those from the kitchen, didn't you?
If Miya finds out...
I don't feel drunk no matter how much I drink, though.
Then why don't you quit drinking altogether?
M-Miya!
These... I'm just borrowing them...
Maybe I should have some too.
This place has gotten really quiet now.
Miya...
Uzume was happy, right?
Yeah, I'm sure of it.
Thank you for the drink.
You two make sure that you always return, no matter where you go.
One person living here, who doesn't pay the rent or ever come back, is enough.
Oh, I've entered the wrong room again.
C'mon, Sahashi-chan! What's up with the gloomy face?
Please forgive me, Chiho-san.
It's not your fault, Sahashi-san.
Uzume-chan made the decision herself.
And all of it... for me.
Onee-chan!
Chiho-san!
Uzume-san saved me in the end.
That's why I'm going to win the Sekirei Project, and bring Uzume-san back to you!
Please, believe in me.
Wishes do come true!
They do!
She's right! Uu-chan will come back!
Kuu-chan...
Onee-chan will get better, too!
My Onii-chan will definitely make that happen!
That's right.
Nothing will happen if I shut myself in my room.
Matsu-san! I need to talk to you!
Oh, I was just about to call you.
Oh?
I did a lot of research afterwards, and...
it turns out that Higa was holding the key to Chiho's treatment.
Really? So that's why Uzume-san...
I tried looking for the methods of treatment, but the data was already erased.
Then we can't...
We can't keep her in a hospital controlled by Higa at this point.
That's why I moved her to a small private hospital for now.
Wh-What about the M.B.I. hospital where I stayed the last time?
You have to be either an M.B.I. official, or someone related to the Sekirei Project to...
But Chiho-san was...!
Since she lost her Sekirei, all the rights of an Ashikabi were nullified too.
But that's...
Matsu-san.
Oh, what is it?
Isn't there a way to meet this Higa guy personally?
Meet Higa?
I know it's dangerous...
But I believe that meeting him personally, and asking about Chiho-san's treatment method is the only way.
I was waiting for you to say that!
Eh?
My blood is finally starting to boil!
Playing around with the sacred bond between an Ashikabi and a Sekirei is unacceptable!
If someone starts a fight with me, I will gladly take them on!
Ma-Matsu-san, what are you planning to do?
Not much. I'm just going to make Higa want to meet you, even if it's against his will.
I'll make him feel the wrath of an ex-member of the Disciplinary Squad!
Higa-sama!
The systems of our daughter companies are crashing one after another, and seem to be unrepairable.
There's not much we can do against such a fast and accurate attack on this scale...
And that's not all of it. Our stock price seems to have greatly decreased as well.
I see. So this is all their doing.
Eh?
It means that physical battles are not their only option.
So... you mean...?
It's an attack from the North, there's no mistake.
From the North?
Goodness... They really are reliable.
They'll definitely go bankrupt at this rate!
Switching to the top speed mode!
A-Amazing...
Is that the attack we've launched against the East?
I'm not sure what's going on, but Matsu's not bad when she actually tries, eh?
I don't understand at all, but Matsu-san is amazing!
Wow!
After having done all this, Higa will have to contact us, whether he likes it or not.
Hello?
Yes, hello...
What?
Mina-tan?
It's the hospital...
They said Chiho-san's state has become critical...
Onee-chan...
Her condition suddenly changed, and the doctor said they have no way to treat her...
Onii-chan?
Damn it!
Sahashi Minato-kun, I presume?
Um... Yes.
That was quite an impressive attack you pulled off.
Attack...?
Then you're the one from the East?
It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Higa Izumi.
So... we finally meet.

Higa Izumi of the East.

Mikogami Hayato of the South. And what about you?
Sahashi Minato of the North.
Why do you sound southern then?
Well, I can't help that...
