Ep. 12: Kotori's trauma and Kamui's dragon choice lead to tragic confrontation

Kotori experiences a mental shock upon seeing Tokiko's blood, recalling Saya's death. A Clamp Academy member transports her for treatment, citing a promise to Tokiko to protect her sacred sword. Inside a shared dream, Kotori meets Kakyou Kuzuki, who recalls a vision of Kamui and Fuuma fighting. Meanwhile, Kamui reads Tokiko's testament, which offers him a choice: become a Dragon of Heaven to protect humanity or a Dragon of Earth to destroy the Earth. Disregarding the fate of the world, Kamui decides his priority is solely the safety of Kotori and Fuuma. Enraged, Fuuma attacks Kamui, revealing that Kamui has unconsciously become the Dragon of Heaven destined to destroy mankind. Fuuma, now possessing psychic powers, destroys the building and kills Kotori. As Fuuma attempts to kill Kamui, Kakyou possesses Kotori's corpse to seize the sacred sword. Fuuma flees when Sorata, Arashi, and Subaru arrive, while Kotori vanishes from the dream, relieved that Kamui survived.
