Story

As the group is planning, Arietta has a dream one night of STΔRLIVHT being attacked by a Noise Beast during a performance, and how she, Remora, and Beyond stepped in to save them. She sees the four girls becoming the strongest NOISZ users, defeating Gaius Antiphon with great sacrifice. Afterwards, however, she also sees the story of the final NOISZ user, who'd seen through her deceptions and reclaimed what had been lost long ago. However, she had been one step ahead, as it was impossible to kill her with a piece of herself.

Awake, Arietta attempts to write down as much of her dream as possible before she forgets it, going to Remora to ask about the girls she'd seen. Remora is able to confirm their existence; Sera Hoshikawa, Sumire Hitori, Hakuno Nekoda, and Grace Kamenashi. Remora notes their next performance is at HI-LIVE, and shows Arietta the venue. She recognizes it as the one she saw in her dream, where they were attacked by a wolf Noise Beast. Remora asks what her plan is now; the mass production NOISZ units are unusable, and from the experimental variants Remora's recombinant module is the most functional. Arietta is certain, however, they were using the resonant units, and tells Remora to change the link specification to four people. Beyond, overhearing the conversation, tells them to bring her with them to the show, wanting to see if it was true herself.

The vision is interrupted once again by a NOISZ Beast- Suzaku. She tells Joker that she too had tried to avoid her sins by shattering herself, and that even if it was Arietta who killed them, their blood is still on her hands. Suzaku swears to make her recognize her guilt, and attacks.

After the fight, Joker admits that even if it was Arietta, they were both to blame, but is interrupted by Sumire and Hitori. They tell her that who Arietta is doesn't define who she is, and that the outcome might not even be what she believes it to be. Joker notices they've seen much of the past, but that her own part has yet to come up. The part that comes next, then, is Arietta's plan, where she'll learn who she is and cross the point of no return. While she told Beyond she would face the truth, Joker is unsure if she can bear leaving her reality behind to move forward.
