Misaki Chronicles

Misaki Chronicles Divergence Eve

My friends are more important than anything!

(Maybe) My friends are more important than anything!

(Maybe) We even have matching cell phone wallpapers

We even have matching cell phone wallpapers

And we walk along together, holding hands...

I don't wanna be by myself, because it makes me feel scared and lonely

I need lots of friends to keep on going

Kiss, kiss, kiss! Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Hug, hug, hug! Yeah, yeah!

Don't stop now! Keep on doing what you're doing! Oh!

Kiss, kiss, kiss! Kisses and...

Hug, hug, hug! I need you!

Stay by my side, my dear friend, my dear friend, my dear...

Kiss, kiss, kiss! Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Hug, hug, hug! Yeah, yeah!

Don't stop now! Keep on doing what you're doing! Oh!

In the end, it's all about friends

I want my friends to appreciate me!

All of them, forever, for sure!

They're the ones who understand me

Friendship is something that goes beyond love!

A friend is someone who accepts your feelings and emotions

Gravitational fluctuation has increased by a factor of 35!

The temporal barrier's deflection factor has synchronized with the gravitational flux.

What's happening?

Or rather, what is about to happen?

We've received word from Lieutenant Commander Ertiana!

They're coming this way!

Have them hurry! At this rate, crossing the temporal barrier will be very difficult!

Well, what are you waiting for? Get me an analysis of the situation immediately!

What the...

The Watcher's Nest that had appeared before us disappeared just as quickly,

leaving the Quantum Core behind.

What's that?

Ensign Kureha?

Lyar...

Prim? What is going on here?!

How could Prim... No, there's no way!

Lyar... There is something I must tell you.

It was Misaki who connected the other universe with our own.

What?!

Misaki is calling... to you and the others.

That is why she has connected the two universes.

Ensign Kureha did? I don't understand!

Misaki... wanted your help...

...used the Quantum Core...

as a contact point between the two...

Prim! Wait!

Misaki is "calling"?

The Two Watcher's Nests

Two universes have been connected, with the Quantum Core as the contact point?

I believe you'd understand if you were to visualize two sheets of paper superimposed at an angle.

At one point along the temporal axis,

this other universe has broken free of the divide and shifted a distance of just one parsec,

upon which it connected to our own universe.

It is likely that would explain why Watcher's Nest appeared before us,

though by rights it should have been destroyed.

So what's happening on Earth right now has also happened on a universal scale?

One theory states that time, rather than being a continuous flow,

is in fact made up of layers of an infinite number of universes,

each of which span one Planck time, the smallest quantifiable unit of time.

Based on this,

one could hypothesize that some sort of shock has caused a break in the temporal axis,

in much the same way that a sudden impact to the Earth's crust might dislocate geological strata.

Enough of your difficult theories!

So you think that the same force has caused a dislocation on Earth and in our region of space?

Looking at it that way, it could also explain why the Quantum Core

has become the contact point between our universe and that one.

The Ghoul...

Normally, creating a temporal rift would require a limitless amount of energy.

However, if the Quantum Core truly has become the contact point between the two universes,

it could produce a tunneling effect capable of penetrating the temporal barrier.

So this is just a hypothesis, eh?

Yes, but it seems Lieutenant Commander Ertiana is already convinced.

Her report made mention of contact with another universe via the central nucleus.

The Integral System... What a mysterious device.

Well then, who among our personnel can withstand crossing through the rift?

I'd surmise the experience to be equivalent to breaching the temporal barrier surrounding Earth.

As such...

So it could only be these three...

Nervous?

No.

It's all right. You're going to a place you know nothing about.

It's only natural to be afraid.

Still, there's one thing I'd like you to keep in mind.

What's that?

To trust Lieutenant Commander Ertiana, no matter what happens.

Lieutenant Commander, did you tell the commander about Ensign Kureha?

I didn't. Because even if I had, I doubt he would have understood.

Still, why did Ensign Kureha...

Everything's ready, Lyar!

What about Suzanna?

She was down below just a minute ago...

I'll go see.

She might seem a little tough, but Lieutenant Commander Ertiana is a trustworthy captain. So...

It's almost time, Suzanna!

You're being summoned.

Thank you very much.

Go on now, you'd better hurry.

Yes, Ma'am!

Do your best.

Thirty light years lies beyond a single "sheet of paper," eh?

RC101, entering inverted space in T-minus 20 seconds.

Electromagnetic wave interference has exceeded limits!

Suspending all communication.

Ensign Kureha...

Misaki... They're all coming.

Kotoko! Verify our current coordinates.

Roger.

We've broken through the temporal barrier!

Okay.

She did it.

Ensign Marialate, I've restored functionality to the bunker.

Prepare for descent.

Roger.

Nobody's here, huh?

The systems are still online?

What's going on?

They should have been locked down during the Exodus.

At any rate, we're going to see if we can still use this place.

It's just not possible!

We don't have enough people to get the tracking systems working!

It's all right. That's why we brought Kotoko.

If we can get the energy supply lines working again, the tracking systems will come back online.

It's just...

Look at the time display.

What is this?

All the other clocks are the same, too.

Morozof said that this universe had broken off from our own along the temporal axis.

Then that means...

Perhaps the point where it separated was just before the Exodus.

So the time here is just before the evacuation began.

We should find all the answers in there... When we find Ensign Kureha.

Suzanna, are you...

What happened?

Did you fry your brain synchronizing with the Integral System?

Don't you regret it?

Huh?

Participating in this mission.

Well, I guess it's not something to be asking now...

You said it yourself. The captain was against me coming.

So... how is it going?

I think I decided to do this for my own sake.

You remember that friend of yours?

Yeah.

When you told me that story, it made me feel sad.

I wanted to somehow meet that person.

Suzanna...

Oh no! I completely forgot about our dinner! Could you take care of things here for a bit?

We can't have the Lieutenant Commander getting so hungry she can't stand it anymore!

What made you remember her massive appetite NOW?

What's wrong, Lyar?

I forgot about the most important thing in the wide world.

What? Marriage?

Wrong!

Lieutenant Commander!

I've brought you your dinner.

Ah, you're a life-saver!

I was just starting to show signs of caloric deficiency.

Is that right? Well, I'm glad I made it in time.

There wasn't a whole lot I could prepare, though...

It's okay. If it'll go in her mouth, Lyar will eat anything!

Ensign Marialate.

How are things over there?

We've connected to the laser gyro's energy supply system. Everything is okay.

Good.

Energy line is up-and-running at 20%.

I'll divert as much power as I can to the observational systems.

I'm counting on you. Ensign Marialate, what about the surveyor?

The data link has been restored. We can begin observation at any time.

Good. Begin a search in passive mode.

Got it.

It's the same pattern as on Earth, isn't it?

Ensign Marialate, set the gravitational scanner array to beam-shaping mode and pinpoint the location.

Pinpointing location via beam-shaping mode...

The nucleus? I wonder if those responses on Earth were caused by the Ghoul...

Kotoko, we're going into the Quantum Core. Stay here and relay instructions.

Roger.

Suzanna, Ensign Marialete. It's time to go.

Lieutenant Commander, I...

Suzanna, I want you to remain in orbit on the Rampart Carrier.

Kiri and I will go into the core on our own.

You'll be fine.

The autopilot will take care of the flying.

But you learned all that back during your basic courses, right?

Basic courses...

I'm counting on you, Suzanna.

Ensign Marialate, let's go.

Lyar, Specular response detected!

Where is the predicted Materialization point?

This is bad...

It's going to attack the Rampart Carrier!

What?!

Abort descent! We're heading back to the Rampart Carrier!

Roger.

Suzanna, do you read me?

Get out of there immediately!

Yes, Ma'am!

You've finally come for me, Lieutenant Commander Ertiana... Kiri.

I'm going to attack. Cover me!

Attack? But that might be Ensign Kureha!

No. Ensign Kureha is...

Ensign Marialate! Eject!

Ensign Kureha! Have the Ghoul stolen your soul?!

No, you're wrong. I...

I... I just wanted to see everyone again!

Suzanna! Get out of here!

What is that?

What's the matter? Hurry up and go!

Suzanna!

Was that Kotoko?

Lyar? Suzanna? Kiri? Are you guys okay?

Answer me!

And the demon of time smiled.

So, how do you plan to escape... from the cage of time that holds you?

What is this?

Commander Woerns!

We've received an alert from the gravitational field detector.

Something resembling a Ghoul response has been detected in the vicinity of Titan Hole near Saturn!

Next Episode

Far, far away, Misaki waits for Lyar and the others.

She calls out to them, but her voice is thin and frail as a spider's web,

and disappears as soon as they begin to follow it.

No! Can we not save Misaki after all?

Everyone is engulfed in confusion and unease.

Just then, a shadow appears.

A cold response... and then the shadow of LeBlanc appears.
