6	After their rescue by Lamar, Tari and Theo find themselves in the company of MD-5, a trio dedicated to bringing down Lucks and TAS Corp. In order to prove herself to their leader, Masa, Tari must duke it out with him in the shooter game ''Battle Blaze'', soon realizing how a human opponent can be more difficult than any in-game challenge. Meanwhile, Lucks, finding something familiar about the symbol on Tari's shirt, sends Belle to investigate an abandoned lab within TAS Corp that he thinks might have answers...
