## Plot

### Part 4

The volume starts with a flashback on which Kalita is wondering if she should lose on purpose to get the money to pay the orphanage or fight for Team Starkiller. The surprise visit turns out to be Mellow who wanted to give Team Starkiller information about their opponents. He spied on Nyarai to find out about Freydar sand her Combagals. He tells them that the key to winning is defeat the first Combagal of Team Resurrector quickly and then focus on the second one afterwards. The first Combagal is revealed to be Nyarai.

Muko faces against Nyarai for the first time since the Masato Match. Muko manages to land a couple of blows on Nyarai, but the cheetah is still her better. After Nyarai insults Daikarin, Muko unveils Nyarai's mummy costume, leaving her alone in a bikini. She the tags out so that Kalita can fight.

The fight with Kalita is an equal one for Nyarai as the two pummel each other. After twenty minutes of fighting, Kalita tags in Muko, intending to have her partner defeat Nyarai while she's exhausted so that they can defeat Nyarai's partner together. Muko manages to land an effective attack on Nyarai and tickles her feet since that's her apparent weakness according to Mellow. However, Nyarai reveals that she knew Mellow was spying on her and gave him a fake weakness.

Nyarai takes control of the fight and starts beating up Muko. As Kalita watches, she remembers her past. She used to have a friend named Sadie with whom she wanted to be a Combagal. However, as they grew older, Kalita befriended bullies who badmouthed furry fighting in an effort to fit in. One day, Sadie got into a fight with the bullies. Kalita desperate to keep her friends, kicked Sadie in the face, making her lose an eye when she broke her glasses.

Horrified at ruining her friendship, Kalita runs away to become a street urchin. She learns to survive at Bulwan Park where Straws, the raccoon bun she saved from the Roda Kira Gang years later, takes care of her. Kalita tells Straws about her past, but Straws tells Kalita that she should learn from her mistakes. This inspires Kalita in the present to illegally tag to defend Muko from Nyarai's finishing blow.

Though Kalita tags in, Nyarai ultimately proves to be the better fighter. As Kalita is on the brink of losing, Muko tags in after discovering Nyarai's weakness. Muko then defeats Nyarai by using her fear of being choked, strangling her into submission while Nyarai remembers her past. Seeing that Nyarai is defeated Freydar takes her out of the ring.

Freydar remembers waking up from her coma two years ago after he last fight. She is met by Shun, who informs her that Cookie did not visit her while she was unconscious and forbid the Fortune Gals from seeing her so that they can focus on the match. Realizing that her manager abandoned her and that she lost most of her strength, Freydar dedicates herself to her rehabilitation. After weeks of hard work, Freydar recovers and agrees to train Shun's Cyclone Crushes in exchange of getting Cookie out of furry fighting.

Back in the present, Freydar calls out Cookie for abandoning her and puts in the second sarcophagus on the ring. She then declares that the match is as good as over since the Combagal inside is someone who could have defeated her two years ago in her prime. Cookie begs for forgiveness, but is heartbroken when Freydar informs her that she doesn't feel hatred for Cookie, telling the squirrel that she means nothing to her.

Muko feels intimidated by the new opponent, but Kalita reassures her that they will win the fight. The coffin explodes, revealing that the next opponent is Sephario, the most dangerous Heel in furry fighting.

## Trivia

* The name of this volume emphasizes Freydar's grudge against Cookie, as she blames her former manager for the destruction of her furry fighting dreams.
