## Summary

### Day 51: September 14, 2033

After the countdown, everyone splits up and fought the kalkruts. Tidus throws a knife at Piller, but Piller dodges and falls to the floor. Tidus continued to then slap Jun for giving up his life and tells him that if he died, then Collin died for nothing. Jun asks himself repeatedly why he's weak and why everyone keeps caring for him. Keneth continued to then stab Melanie, causing her to bleed to death. During the final moments of her life she tells Jun that he's strong and to keep living. She also announces to him that her birthday is in two days and she'd be turning nine. The rest keep fighting as stopping will get them killed too. They were all devastated and depressed. Jun screams to the top of his lungs as she dies in his arms.

A girl named Roselyn catches Coen's attention while he was dashing through the trees. They have to get to Izuzunu before the war starts, but Roselyn informs him that the war already started. They both jump from tree to tree. Coen is a ninja and Roselyn is a medic, but she trained to be a ninja by herself. Lord Piller jumps onto Jun, sending both of them down a hill. Piller talks about his daughter and how he missed her and how Melanie reminds him of her. Piller explains that his daughter died to the hands of humans and that's why he hates their kind so much. If his daughter never died, he wouldn't have been so evil, he said. Then after a brief moment, Piller commands his kalrhino to then eat Jun, swallowing him whole.

Piller runs from the incident and back to the battlefield. Everyone wondered where Jun was and questioned. Piller answers and tells them that he's safe. Piller then sends shards to Tidus, which slices his legs off. George then shouts and asked why he is having war with Izuzunu. Piller explained that he wants the diamonds from the diamond valley and demands all the diamonds.

Mikey falls to the ground as George runs to Mikey. Mikey just got stabbed into his palm as he screamed. The kalkruts laugh as they mess around with George and Mikey by smacking them in the face while they're on the floor. The kalkruts slowly press their blades onto Mikey's other palm of his hands as he yells in pain. While Mikey was laying on the floor, he suddenly hears a male voice. He realizes it's his dad and his dad told him to protect his brother, George. He remembers his father and George. They're back in Mikey's memories, only those memories. His father yells in Mikey's head to fight as Mikey gets up from the ground and grabs his sword.

Mikey stabs one of the kalkrut in the head and kicks the other in the head, letting go of George, who was on the floor while a kalkrut was on top of him. Mikey tumbles to the ground and stabs the last kalkrut. After finishing, Mikey begins sobbing, telling George that he got a bit of his memories back and that George was his real brother. George was silence and shocked to hear the truth be told. Meanwhile Kayla is protecting the Druzels, she decided to make a run out of Izuzunu with the druzels.

Jun's house, Modern City, Kayla's House, and other buildings were ruined. She runs through the town with the druzels. An axer appears behind a building grabbing a Druzel. He puts his axe up to the Druzel's neck and laughed, saying that he'd kill her. Kayla calls him a coward as he drops the Druzel and walks closer to Kayla in anger. He swings his axe at her as she dodges and attacks him. Kayla shouted for the Izuzunians to run away without her. They listen while they all start running away as Kayla is left with the axer.

Kalya manages to actually kill the axer and decapitate his head. Back in Chinatown, Tidus was on the floor, legless. He tells Keneth that he's ready to kill him as Keneth runs to Tidus, thinking Tidus isn't harmful anymore, now that he has no legs. Keneth tried to stab through Tidus's head, but he blocks with his forearm and stabs into Keneth's heart. They both stood there in pain until Keneth falls to the ground and quickly dies. Tidus looked at his legs and knew he was gonna die. The rest run to Tidus to see that he killed Keneth. Tidus said it doesn't matter now that he dies because he avenged Melanie's death. Tidus continues to thank them for having him in this town and finally closes his eyes and dies due to blood loss.
