So tell me, what destructions have you got planned for today?
Just wait and see.
It’s showtime, guys! – Let’s go!
Power of Water! Power of Fire! Power of Earth!
Mastiff Man, I hope you haven’t forgotten your end of the deal!
Have you?
Remember, to keep yours.
I won’t do your bidding, if you’re lying.
As long as you destroy the Armor Heroes, the hostages will be safe.
Alright. It’s a deal.
Get out of my way!
Traitor!
Ivan, what’s happening!?
I grow impatient. I cannot wait for this battle to end!
We should do this ourselves, and destroy the Light Armors once and for all!
Patience is a virtue, my dear Nina.
I advise against rushing our plans.
Good things come to those who wait, as the old saying goes.
We cannot risk failure because of impatience.
Otherwise, we will be imprisoned for another millennium!
What are you saying…
Take a step back and watch.
It’s the only thing I learned from these humans.
You can just wait, and see the entire world change.
I got this!
Watch out!
That’s enough! Stop fighting!
Tommy!
Just stop fighting, guys!
You’ll pay!
You have to stop!
Tommy!
My thirst for battle is sated. Let’s go!
And what about him, are we going to leave him?
Hmph. His fate is no concern of mine.
Please forgive me..
What have I done!?
You got lucky in the last fight.
Tommy, wasn’t seriously injured.
But in the meantime, he needs bed rest.
He’ll have to stay here.
Bed rest!?
Right now, the team’s already one member short!
We need the Earth Armor!
You can’t be serious about keeping him here!
I’ve heard enough, Mike. My decision is final.
Tommy’s condition – is critical.
We can’t risk his life!
Now the three of you will have to manage without the Tiger Man.
Tommy needs to rest, if you expect him to be of use.
We will be fine.
I’ve already told him, not to trust the enemy!
Now look. Look at what happened.
Our concern right now, is to find the traitor.
Or else, we're all in deep trouble!
The traitor? Who’s that?
You can’t be serious.
I’m talking about Ivan!
I’ve told you countless times, he will never change his ways!
But no one listened to me!
And now everything’s ruined!
Hey Liz... listen to me…
You know… Y..you know, Ivan…
He didn’t… He didn’t… betray…
Anyone…
Tommy, you’re injured, you need more rest!
You guys… misunderstood…
We can talk later, you need to relax!
I don’t get it. Why does he trust Ivan so much?
Doesn’t he see that Ivan, is our enemy?
Instincts, observation,
... decisions...
..so..solutions.
He still believes that Ivan is an ally.
Foolish.
The situation is becoming complicated.
I need to devise a new plan.
You’re in a good mood.
It surprises me sometimes when I see you with a smile on your face.
Whenever you’re happy, everyone starts feeling the exact same way too, you know?
I see, you’re looking pretty happy too. Why?
Did Jimmy compliment your design sketches again?
Here. See this?
I designed this suit for you.
You can wear it at the nationals, after it’s done.
You should look good, for the judges.
And I’m sure the fans will go crazy, when they see you in that outfit.
You’ve been acting really nice lately, why’s that?
What?
No offense, Teresa, but you…
..are starting to get a whole lot weirder.
Eric, you’re teasing me again.
You never - worry about money, and you often work for my aunt, for free,
as a simple waitress. – am I right?
Well, I like working here.
But don’t you come from a very wealthy family?
My auntie once told me she couldn’t pay you for two months.
You didn’t complain.
What’s strange is, you never considered quitting.
That was so nice of you.
Well, I… - really didn’t mind.
Besides, you’re interested in fashion design, not in gourmet cooking.
What’s even weirder is, I’ve known you for so long, but you’ve never talked about your family.
Don’t they live nearby?
Yeah, but I think, I need to, learn how to live independently.
And so....
Aren’t they worried sick?
Not really, they know I’m alright.
Also, they’re always busy.
Then can I be honest with you? Why are you working here?
Don’t you have dreams, - that you want to fulfill right now?
I want to be a famous musician.
I have to make my mother proud.
Well then—
You should know that.
I have dreams too, but I’d rather keep it secret.
If I fulfill them, I’ll tell you all about it, - okay?
I won’t ask if they’re such a huge secret.
I won’t pry. I’m good.
...with you admitting that you’re weird.
I’m now lost in this huge web of lies.
Me too. I wanted to ask you, how the new Dragon Man’s been holding up.
Jimmy, I don’t know what to tell you.
Tommy’s injured now, and Mike’s being stubborn.
Then Ivan sided with the Shadow Servants.
I’m losing control over the team.
Actually, I don’t think Ivan betrayed any of you.
What’s important is, we don’t have evidence to support that claim.
It’s easier to assume the Servants are manipulating him
without us knowing about it.
In fact, I’ve been thinking…
About what?
If you consider that Tommy, Mike, and Sam are all orphans,
and Ivan doesn’t know his parents,
It follows, that he’s also an oprhan.
That’s impossible. Wasn’t he raised by the Shadow King?
Parentage, - relies on blood relation. Right?
Remember, that the Shadow Realm’s old king, was the scientist Dr. Kevin.
The possibility, that he’s Ivan’s father is very slim.
Get it?
Then he’s an orphan?
Hey, during the time when I was still studying journalism, there were cases that struck me.
They were about these– freak accidents.
Is this about, the fire that burned down the old Sunshine Orphanage?
Right. The children who were injured then, were not hurt by the flames.
There were also missing children, and even cases of theft.
Within just a few hours, another incident had happened nearby.
The police went nowhere with the clues they had found,
and thought it was just an arson case.
But when they revisited the old files, - even the photographs had disappeared.
Exactly! The answer lies in that orphanage.
Everything that happened back then, can be traced back to that place.
I’ll investigate. Maybe… We can find out the truth behind Ivan’s roots.
Not bad, Jimmy.
Looks like you haven’t lost any of your investigation skills.
I haven’t forgotten, the talent I used to have.
However, this case does not have any viable leads now.
It’ll be difficult.
Don’t forget, I have various sources.
They’ll help with the work, when they’re needed.
But I’m worried that if we finally find a major clue,
I won’t have time to manage the team.
Hey, don’t worry. I know someone who can help us with this.
You mean Teresa!?
But she’ll be in danger!
You just have to trust me, Liz.
Mhm. Alright Jimmy, I leave this case to you.
I got this. Don’t worry.
Teresa.
Hi, fancy seeing you here.
Actually, I wanted to chat. Nothing huge.
Hey? Still drawing? That looks great.
It reminds me of the suit you once designed for Eric.
I hope Eric likes the one I’m making for him now.
I think, he would look like a superstar.
And that’s, - because…
Because…? What is it? You can tell me.
You called me over to talk about something, and I’m sure it’s not about designing an outfit, right?
You’re right. Do you remember… Ivan?
He’s that guy… who’s always sad.
I do! And everytime I see him, - he smiles at me.
Well, Liz told me earlier, he’s had it rough lately.
Oh, by the way, he’s actually the Mastiff Man!
You’re serious?
But I didn’t see him with Mike and the other guys.
Everyone thinks, - he’s betrayed the team.
But then, Liz and I don’t think so at all.
There must be, a good reason why he’s been acting so strange.
He’s someone… who’s always distant, so we…
Go ahead, what were you gonna say?
We think… he just might listen to you.
Me~?
But I don’t know him that well, so what would I say?
Actually, we really believe he will talk to you, Teresa.
Just think, you’re helping out someone in need.
He’ll like the fact, that he’s not pressured to talk.
Okay. Maybe a chat will do him some good.
Thanks for helping.
Mm~.
Do you think – she’ll meet Ivan?
If he’s not an enemy, he should be there.
He wouldn’t refuse the company.
Be there at three, at the park. You’ll meet someone.
If you can, talk to her, she’s a friend.
Hi there!
So it’s you?
Jimmy sent me. I was worried.
Um, - are you alright? Why do you look, - a little pale?
I’m fine. How are you.
That was quick!
Children, look! Over there. That is the harbor.
What is that!? It's a monster!!
Run!
The ship is so big, don't you think so?
Right?
Ru~n! Run, children!!
This magnetic field is becoming an utter nuisance for all of us,
we must disable it before it ruins our plan!
I agree, but it seems all too familiar to me.
This weird magnetic field… Don’t tell me… Is it…?
I haven’t felt that kind of intense energy in ages!
I don’t care where it’s coming from, I just need it eliminated before the Armor Heroes arrive!
Oh, and don’t forget to call on that lapdog.
We should have a little bit of fun.
Heh! Then let’s go!
“Armor Hero Form!”
Activate!
Chrono Stop.
