Knives reminices when he was a child with Vash and plays their duet on his own. Conrad comes in to ask what Knives was up to, only for Knives to be interrupted by the blaring alarms, alerting of a Plant's upcoming death.
Knives and Conrad go out to examine the Plants, with Knives seeing his sister's withering away, being pushed too far by human's to meet their demands. Knives orders Conrad to heal them, but there is nothing either of them can do. The humans then force the Plants into a Last Run, killing them off as they sap away their last energy. Knives falls to his knees, helplessly staring at the withered husks of the Plants.
Vash then appears and calls out to Knives, who removes his hood and looks at his brother. As he humans attempt to forcefully remove Knives from the scene, he gives into his rage and begins to kill all of the humans who come. He then looks over to Vash, asking for his brother to join him in his crusade to free their brethren.
