Honoka meets up with Iks on her way to the Steel Gorge. When they arrive, they discover a great army of The Third's units, led by Joganki, are waiting for them.

After saying goodbye to Iks, Honoka visits Joey and discovers he's been barred from working because he infringed upon the Technos Taboo.

Deep inside the facility, Honoka finally confronts Rona Fauna. Rona tells Honoka that she's killed Joganki and challenges her to a fight.

Having narrowly managed to win against Rona Fauna's combat model, a severely injured Paife returns to the tank and entrusts Iks to the rest. Meanwhile, Honoka discovers Rona's body preserved in a vessel.

The Tank Killer, a specialized anti-tank chopper, appears before Iks, Paife and Bogie! In the meantime, Honoka and Blue Breaker investigate the inside of the facility...

Honoka isn't ready to return to town, so she and her new traveling companion arrange to meet up with the mechanic Zankan and his young daughter, Millie. However, their plans are disturbed by some unexpected guests.

Honoka, in her PSP, and Blue Breaker split up from the group and carefully make their way to where Rona Fauna awaits.

As Honoka's group is about to depart, Fila reveals she has one more companion for them: Zankan's killer, the most powerful autonomous soldier on the frontier, Blue Breaker.

The Wormhole Driver has been hijacked! Unresponsive to The Third's attempts to regain control, it fires and eradicates a huge portion of a mountain range. Meanwhile, Honoka meets with an unexpected potential client: Fila Marique. From Fila's tone, it seems something strange is going on among The Third...

Millie and the others look on as a seriously injured Honoka hangs on the brink of death. During this time, the Wolf suddenly appears and escorts Millie further into the desert, but for what reason?

After three days of pursuing the fairy and the wolf through the desert, Honoka and Millie are still unable to bridge the emotional gap between them, but there is a sandstorm on the horizon.

Honoka and Millie continue their travels, but Iks can sense there is still a rift between the two girls. As they battle the desert's dangers, Millie hears a gentle voice...

Honoka decides to take Millie on a short vacation out in the desert after Paife tells her Millie was found asleep at school. At the same time, a hunter named Leon seeks out Honoka. He wants her to guide him in his search for the legendary "fairy" of the desert...

While Honoka and Paife are engaged in their respective battles, Iks attempts to talk with Gravestone. Time is swiftly running out...

Honoka and the others come face to face with the dome of light, which continues to expand. But despite Paife and Iks' pleading, Honoka continues to advance toward it.

When Honoka's group catches up with Iks, he takes her aside aside and suggests they turn back. But aside from the fact she's out on a job, Honoka has another reason for refusing.

In a devastated world overrun by monstrous bugs and ravaged by outlaws, there's only one person to call when you really need a job done right: Honoka. With a sixth sense for danger, sword skills that are second to none, and a smart-aleck A.I. tank by the name of Bogie, she's ready to tackle any job and solve any problem for her clients. But while crossing the desert one night, she finds a young man alone in the wasteland.
