Short Synopsis
Teresa realises how strong Priscilla is and begins to fight harder. Just as she is about to take her head, Irene steps in, blocking her. Noel and Sophia also leap into the fight but Noel is kicked away into a building and Sophia is slashed. Though Priscilla disapproves of a five-on-one fight, she agrees to let the others aid her. They all release their Yoki and begin to fight Teresa. Despite this, she is able to evade their attacks and wound Irene. Distraught, Priscilla tries to help her but is commanded to help Noel and Sophia. All three of them are soon down without Teresa having to release her Yoki and Irene realises she has misjudged Teresa's strength again.
