Mayuko starts feeling the effects of wearing the mask, where she sees her masked alter-ego. Feeling distressed, Yuri offers Mayuko to sit out, but she refuses. As they make their way to Yoshida, they reach a library, where they find a find a bat-wielding Mask. Mayuko rashly attacks him, but gets knocked out. Only then does Mr. Mask show up and kills him. Thinking that he's an enemy, Mayuko and Yuri run away, however Mr. Mask hoped they could all team up. He recalls the time where he found Rika; who Rika knows personally, but unable to vice versa. As they fight, Rika attempts to take the Sniper's mask off, but he escapes, leaving Rika in tears. The Sniper also recalls how he became an Angel; it was forcibly put on him by Yayoi Kusakabe, an Angel in a police uniform. She hopes for him to be a strong Angel for the Perfect God, and that the world will disappear once its created. Elsewhere, Mayuko collapses, believing that her masked alter-ego is taking her over. She praises Yuri for her tenacity, and she's grateful for a friend like her. She is stopped by Yuri from jumping, then gets fully controlled for a brief amount of time, but was deemed inoperable to be an Angel, then finally collapses. A nearby angry-Masked dealer explains Mayuko's state as "hibernation" of which she has less than 2 hours to live, but can be saved by a Candidate. The Angel tells Yuri that there's a mouthless mask nearby, which can grant her to be a Candidate. Vowing to save Mayuko, Yuri departs. Minutes later, Kuon saves Mayuko from her hibernation, unbeknownst to Yuri. As Yuri goes to the mask, she is attacked by a skier Angel. (Source: Wikipedia)
