May had gone missing again. Kazuya and Kasumi were searching for her.

"I hope we find May soon," Kazuya said. "Her batteries will run out of power by nightfall."

"She only has enough power for one day?" Kasumi said. "It's like she only has one day to live."

"Actually," Kazuya said, "she goes into a 'sleep mode', and recharges, just like everybody else...

"Still, thinking like that might help us find her. Kasumi? If you knew you only had one day to live, what would you want to do?"

Kasumi smiled sadly. Oh, Kazuya, she thought. If only you knew.
