Mysterious Destinies
At a park in South City, while preparing for the next set of Crossfire competitions, Akira works up her B-Shot skills with practice runs and training. Shiro and the other Crestland B-Shots spectates and cheering her on. After completing her training course in her fastest record time, Akira suddenly felt an aching pulse from her head and begins to have a sudden headache, like what she previously experienced during the "Four-Block Match." They hurried over to Akira and asked what's going on, but Akira couldn't answer as she bares the pain from her headache. Moments later, Shiro casts "Ocean of Seraph" on Akira and fell asleep, in order to stop the pain.

After Shiro made Akira fall asleep from a sudden headache, Kamon calls up Kohana in East City, who's also joined by Miku, and explained what happened to Akira. Just as expected, Kohana and Miku were worried. When Kamon and Miku ask Kohana about what could be the cause of Akira's sudden headaches, she concluded that problem is happening in the Dream World, like with her previous experience of entering the Dream World through Asahi's dream. This surprised both Kamon and Miku by her answer. To truly find out their answer, Kohana and Miku travel to South City, to visit Akira and find out what's going on.

In the WBMA Dormitories in South City, Shiro and Gorgon were staying in Akira's dorm room to keep an eye on Akira. Eventually, Kohana and Miku arrived at Akira's dorm room and Kohana explained that they must enter the Dream World in Akira's dream, to find their answers. While Miku agreed to join Kohana's plan, Shiro was reluctant, at first. Because she didn't want anything bad to happen while she's in the Dream World. But Kohana assures Shiro that nothing bad is going to happen, unless they are being careful with their surroundings in the Dream World. After agreeing to join them, Kohana asks for permission from Akira to enter her Dream World before she casts the spell and slipped into the Dream World, with the B-Damans keeping watch of the dorm room.

The Angel Goddesses enter the Dream World and during their visit, they meet Inner Akira, the protector of Akira's Dream World created from the physical thoughts and memories of the real Akira. After meeting Inner Akira and explaining the reason for their visit. Just like the Angel Goddesses, Inner Akira was worried about Akira's sudden headaches. When Kohana asks what's happening, Inner Akira couldn't bring up a good answer, but only provide little information about what she found and share it to the Angel Goddesses, along with mentioning a "voice" speaking to her in the Dream World. Travelling through the Dream World, Kohana finds a marble floating around and Shiro asks if Scarlie, Akira's B-Daman partner, is involved with what's happening. However, Inner Akira denies that Scarlie is involved, so the Angel Goddesses kept looking. After finding more clues, most notably three different items that brings good luck and Scarlie's somewhat involvement in the situation, Kohana concluded that Scarlie is the one behind Akira's condition. Moments later, the "voice" speaks to the Angel Goddesses and suddenly takes Inner Akira away from them.

The Angel Goddesses transformed and tried their best to save Inner Akira, but the aura surrounding her figure was too strong for their powers to even penetrate it. The "voice" warns the Angel Goddesses of making Akira's condition worse and the choice of leaving the Dream World, but Kohana warned them about saving Akira by force, if they have to.

Back in the real world, Viveria and Team Mystic took down another Malevolent rampaging in the streets of South City, thanks to Pawline's "Ripple of Feathers" from the Enchant Ring. Naia sulks after another loss and disappears, returning the Malevolent World. Moments after winning, Elvire meets with Viveria and Pawline, informing them about Ashy-Mist returning to the Team Mystic and the upcoming Ceremony of Completion for the newborn Mystics from underneath the Mystic Tree and welcoming the Mystics that have completed their Mystic Trials to earn their powers, especially the rare occurrence of a Ladybug and Hyena Mystic appearing in the Ceremony at the same time.

The Ceremony of Completion
Four days later, Rika receives a letter from Elvire, saying that she should attend the coming Ceremony of Completion in the Mystic Village, after fully recovering from the previous battle against the Malevolents and the Darkalia Twins. Contemplating on whether or not she should attend the event, Rika complies and goes to the Mystic Village, as Ashy-Mist the Ninetails Fox Mystic. At the same time, Kohana brings out the "History's Legends and Myths" book, to find something that would help find an answer to Akira's condition of having sudden headaches. After learning more about what's happening to Akira, Shiro was angry that she couldn't protect her best friend. However, Kohana and the others were shocked to learn that these "sudden headaches" can lead to one of these options of Myth and Legend, though it was never revealed.

In the Mystic Village, all of the Mystics were making the final preparations for the Ceremony of Completion to officially begin. Viveria and Pawline were both helping out in the Mystic Village with the decorations until they were both greeted by the appearance of Ashy-Mist in the Mystic Village. Pawline jumped at the Ninetails Fox to give her a welcoming hug, but Ashy-Mist reminded the Mystic that she's still recovering from her injuries. Elvire meets up with her students and told them that they need to finish decorating the Mystic Village before the Ceremony begins. Viveria and Pawline separate to finish off the decorations, and Ashy-Mist runs off to help decorate the village.

Going back to the Angel Goddesses, Kohana and the others were still in shock after learning the possibilities of the "unusual happenings" that Akira could transform into from experiencing the sudden headaches. Shiro questioned why Akira was chosen, Miku and Everett gave their guesses, but Kohana denies their answers and asks Shiro, if she knows anything about Akira's past since they were both in the same orphanage when they still orphans. Even after knowing Akira for a long time during their time in the Crestland Orphanage, Shiro knows little to nothing about her past, Gorgon agreeing. Shiro suggests asking Himari, who knows Akira more than Shiro and Gorgon.
