Synopsis
Light appears at the sky of London, appearing as an angel or some sort- giving the citizens of London hope; believing that the angels had come to save them from the Nazis. Until a voice comes from one of the angels, who shouted that they're the angel of death. "The inquisition will now render its judgement," he shouted. The accused FREAKs, along with the accused London will be given the sentence of death; he repeats, multiple times. As the citizens of London realizes that they are not, in fact, the "savior" that they had hoped to be- they scream at the sight of armed men in helicopters. They are, however, pitiful; but Maxwell will not forgive them; with the voice of greed and unsatisfied, Maxwell shouts "float like a butterfly, die like a be," telling them all heathens and heretics, protestants and Anglicans to all die in vain, like a fruitless, burning flowers.

At the top of Deus ex Machina, The Major heard Maxwell's speech; saying that Maxwell isn't all bad when he puts his mind into his speeches. As the ninth crusade gets ready to land, the Last Battalion gets distracted; awaiting command from The Major on what they should do. Raising his hand up, The Major commands his army to dawn Anti-UV Radiation gear to prepare for their uses of UV rays, as well as the soon to be rising sun as Warrant Officer Schrödinger watches; smiling. Below, the Last Battalion instantly assembles, and puts on their masks. The Doctor then goes up to the roof of the zeppelin, losing balance; begging the Major to come inside as the place is hazardous.

However, the Major avoids this and went straight to the point- asks the Doctor "if we can use it yet," to which, the Doctor says that yes they could- but it's extremely unstable. Nervous, the Doctor finishes his sentence; stating that it is dangerous however, he did what the Major asked him to do. Pleased by his answer, the Major says that it is splendid, and asked the Doctor if it's good- "him." The Doctor says that while it was not easy, "he" is certainly a wonderful base. He continues by saying that he did not have much time, so it was a crude surgery, to which, Schrödinger says "way to go, doc." This basic and boring reply angered the Doctor, calling Schrödinger a blockhead and says that he could so some work to, to which, Schrödinger says that he has been working; he went all the way back to the Hellsing Manor to see Zorin.

The Vatican's Crusaders touch down with shield and rifle in hand. The battle lines are drawn as Millennium and the Vatican stare each other down. In excitement, Maxwell shouts "look over this way" twice, to see the eradication of their enemies as Maxwell goes insane. Swinging his right arm back, Maxwell says "your objective lies before you," then swings his right arm forward with his palm open wide, states and shouts "execution." Immediately, helicopters originating from the Vatican began firing at Millennium; releasing their payloads all at once. The Major's Deus ex Machina was not save from this attack, instead, multiple of the missiles sent from the Vatican were headed directly onto the Major's zeppelin.

The Doctor, taking cover, begs the Major to get inside; if they do not move the ship, even with the special light metal armor the ship has- it won't hold for long in the attack. He then screams the Major's name, multiple times before witnessing the Major puts his arm in the air; and begins to play what's know as the "battlefield music," and the Major states "I am playing music, the battlefield music. No once can interfere," then suddenly, helicopter rises in front of the top of the zeppelin.
