Donna tried to catch up to Mercurio but the duel was moving everywhere, making it confusing on where they went. At the same time the Tallgeese on self-destruct was launched as an improvised bomb and to avoid the blast she was forced to leave the station.
The explosion created by the Tallgeese was seen by Milou. "You can rest now sis." He thought.

The destruction of the Sol Invictus was seen by the surviving pilots. "Sol Invictus is destroyed!" Tano exclaimed.
"But where's Mercurio?" Donna thought. Her worries were remedied when the Artemis escape from the blast safely.
Milou fond her observing the explosion. "Sorry Donna, Your brothers didn't survive." Milou informed her through the channel. "I heard how they fought to the end."
The Gundam pilot felt that she expected the outcome. She had a larger chance of surviving compared to them with the Gundam. She had the thought of the only surviving member of the famity left while she returned to the Executor Rising, She entered the depressurisation chamber before entering the locker room.
Quatre was waiting for her there. "I got the news also. Sorry for your loss." He said.
Donna noticed the Instructor's voice. "But I think winning this was all that mattered."
"Mercurio's back." Quatre pointed out to his student just when he entered the room.
Donna gave a hug to Mercurio and feeling the embrace she was happy to find him real. She was worried with how Milou would react but seeinf his approval she returned to Mercurio. "You survived..." She said to him. She was also reminded of how he kissed her suddenly and decided to give him a light slap. "Also never kiss without consent again." She told him before hugging him again. "I also found out that the money collected for the huge was for wine. Suchart left it for me and Milou but we haven't touched it."

Tano thought about what is going to do now. "I'll resign from the Coalition military." He thought. "My work is done, but is there anywhere else I can go?"
Milou had in mind about how he is now forced to take Naina's role as well. "I'll have to tell dad." He pondered with reluctance. "I just hope I can do as well as how sis was meant to..."

With their mission complete Donna wondered about what everyone will do. "Milou, you're returning to Mars right?" She asked him.
"Have to." He verified. "Also have to take sis home." It also reminded all of them that the victory's price to heavy.
The Gundam pilot went to Quatre next. "Instructor, will you be returning to the Colonies?" She questioned.
Quatre thought about it. "I'll be organising reparations from there." He replied. "I wasn't also able to attend to Katherine for a long time so I'll go see her as well."
