As Bernadotte's men run out of ammo, a massive explosion from a [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Panzerfaust#:~:text=From%20German%20Panzerfaust.-,Noun,of%20the%20Second%20World%20War. Panzerfaust] blows their barricade away, killing almost all of them; leaving only three of the Geese alive. In a clutch, Seras then shows up to save her friends, but is cast under a powerful illusion that dredges up a past trauma she thought long buried.

Synopsis
The Wild Geese begin to kiss their asses goodbye as the Deputy delivers Bernadotte the last two AK-47 clips for him to use as he pleases. They think back on the old times, saying that this was the closest they had ever come to death save the Uganda Jungle Raid, which they had only barely escaped because they were evac'd at the last minute. The man who had lost hope suddenly has a change of heart, stating that even if they surrender- they'd all be ripped apart after many of the Wild Geese had lost hope. Many of those said that they're finished but those who continues fighting with much struggle, tells them to shut up; as they are noticeably distracted by their whining. As they continue to fire and look back on their lives, Bernadotte believes that Seras will come soon enough; he was confident until a rocket comes through and blows away their barricade, killing most of the men.

Bernadotte is wounded, having taken shrapnel to his stomach. As he struggles, he tells everyone who's still alive to report in; and as he screams for the Deputy to give a report on the damage given to the Wild Geese, what he saw was traumatizing- the Deputy had been cut in half; he was still alive though. Bernadotte screams out his name, begging for the Deputy to not pass away; until the Deputy says that he feels tired, asking Bernadotte if he can rest now. Giving in, saddened, Bernadotte allows him to do so- responding with "Yeah. At ease man, Adieu" as the Deputy passes away, ending his pain.

Bernadotte and the surviving members of the Panzerfaust attack witnesses Zorin Blitz, in her sadism, orders one of his men to fire the rocket again despite it being the last one; stating that she doesn't care if it's the last one, even though it'd be a waste- she orders him to "Blow this pitiful bunch to smithereens". He takes aims as he was ready to fire, awaiting command; and when he finally got to command and was ready to pull the trigger, he was shot by something from the back in the head directly on the eye in which, he was aiming in. Then a barrage of bullets storms the Battalion as Zorin witnesses multiple of her men dying all at once. An explosive bullet then was sent, hitting one of her men; the radius finished the Battalion, though Zorin managed to dodge and survive it. She then sees the shadow of a figure she recognizes- it was Seras Victoria giving the Geese a direct-cannon support.

The surviving members of the Geese smiles as they witnesses their trump card came right on time, with Bernadotte saying that she fulfilled her promise- she really came to kill all the FREAKs by herself. Bernadotte then says that Seras is a really good girl. He then says that he regrets not being able to force the kiss on her in a sarcastic manner. Finally, it's only them one-on-one. Seras drops her weapon after seeing it running out of ammo. Zorin smiles as Seras says that she's the last one. Zorin immediately casts a spell, pulling out her history with which to torture her. Seras tries to reassure herself that nothing she sees is real. She is taken back to the orphanage where she is being scolded for acting out due to the trauma of some past event. It is then revealed that she hoped to become a police officer due to the fact that her father once had been, and due to the horrible incident that had happened that resulted in his death.
