In the Makai Priest temple, Rian is being prepared for the ritual that would make her into the new Zedom's Requiem singer. On the way to the Hill of Zedom's Head, when Rivera brings up their friendship, Rian is a bit heart broken when Enhou explains that Horrors have no friends. When Enhou is alerted by the SG1 that the Makai Knights are heading to their position, Rivera leaves to deal with them while Enhou takes Rian to their final destination. Upon arrival, Rian is forced into drinking a poison that Tousei explains will compel the Makai Priestess to sing Zedom's Requiem. However, with Aguri and Takeru holding back Rivera and her minions, Ryuga manages to stop Enhou from having Rian absorb the seeds. However, one of the seeds falls into the seal and awakens Zedom, frightening Tousei. Annoyed with Rian telling him that it is his fault that the Horror is waking up, Tousei orders Enhou to capture the girl while he escapes. Ryuga and Enhou battle, eventually taking their fight outside while she remembers who she was and that in their meeting she made him the victim, Ryuga battles Enhou with Rian also intending to end her friend's suffering. Managing to hold Enhou in place, Rian enables Ryuga to land the deathblow on the Mad? Horror. Upon seeing that her friend has died with a smile on her face and her body still human, Rian decides to make sure that Enhou does not die a monster by using a spell to assume her form. Arriving just as Rivera rallies the SG1 to kill Aguri and Takeru, "Enhou" tells the soldiers that Rivera is their true enemy and tricks Rivera into attacking her. Rivera deals a fatal wound to "Enhou" and Rian uses a smoke bomb to replace herself with the real Enhou's body to give the illusion that Enhou was murdered by the Mad? Horror. With the SG1 turning their weapons on her, Rivera is forced to escape with the soldiers turning their attention to Enhou's body as they take their captain away. Watching the events unfold, Ryuga holds Enhou's necklace and senses the lamentation of her humanity over what she has done. This makes him promise Rian that there will be no more Mad? Horrors. Later that night, Rian has a dream of meeting Enhou in what appears to an ideal Vol City and she wonders if this is what her friend dreamed of.
