Head takes a license from his position as leader of glittering star's "Vanishing Age" squad and leaves another member, Marino You, aka Manticore in his place. Little the order know that Marino's twin sister Mizuno is actually one of the four maidens.

Takuto and his classmates play a baseball game against Mizuno and Marino's class. During the match, Marino's growing interest on Takuto brings forth the anger of one of Manticore's subordinates who decide to challenge him in in Zero Time.

Determined to bring revenge upon Kanako by taking over the glittering star's leadership, her assistant Simone devises a plan to fight Takuto with the aid of Takashi who gains a second chance to confront Tauburn.

Kanako is determined to become leader of the glittering star by defeating Tauburn in combat, but before challenging Takuto, she invites him to a date.

In order to confront Takuto once more and regain her position as a Star Driver, Benio volunteers herself to be a test subject in a experiment to reactivate destroyed Cybodies.

Having successfully managed to reactivate a broken Cybody, the Glittering Star uses the same process to repair Manticore's hoping to use its special ability to discover the identity of the West Maiden, but soon they find that maneuver a mistake when it escapes Marino's control and goes berserk.

Mizuno and Marino's estranged mother returns and a desperate Mizuno tries to leave the island to avoid her, but her maiden powers prevents her to do so. Wako conforts her and finds that she is the West maiden, a fact that Glittering Star already knows.

Having captured Mizuno, the Glittering Star manages to break her seal and reach the Third Phase. While Mizuno manages to glimpse on Takuto's past and his days before he gains his mark, he struggles against Head, whose cybody resembles his own in both appearance and abilities.
