"Damn it, that blasted form again..."
Dark Zero glared at Shining Zero, who stood with his back to the sun.
Shining Zero spoke slowly. "This light exists to sever your darkness!"
Inside Zero, Shinji felt his body grow incredibly light. He felt himself enveloped in warm light as well.

Geed swung the Giga Termination hard,
