Ichise and Doc come to the realization that everyone above ground is dead already. They're just waiting for it to become permanent. Doc, realizing that she's the same, stays while Ichise heads back to Lux. Ichise meets his father's ghost on the way and tells him that he now knows he was framed. Toyama and several other Shapes run the train into the barriers collapsing the tunnel underground. He kills the other Shapes and tells Ichise that Ran has been taken by Kano. He then tells Ichise that he admires him too much and that is why he must kill him. The two battle at the entrance to the tunnel.
