*The Palace, Konan Country, Kerry's room*
Tasuki: Oh no…
Hotohori: What do we do now?
Chichiri: They're so strong no daa! If they wanted to use their powers for evil…we'd be in SERIOUS trouble no daa…
Tamahome: *running into the room with Miaka and Chiriko* Where is she?
Tasuki: *almost teary* I couldn't…I couldn't stop them…
Miaka: *runs over to Tasuki to comfort him* It's not your fault, Tasuki…it's not your fault…
Hotohori: *looks down at writhing Tatara* What should we do with her?
Chiriko: Why don't you put her down…all the doors are locked…she can't get out…
Hotohori: *puts her down* Okay…
Tatara: *takes a seed from her necklace* Curse you all! *the seed grows into a giant plant that envelops Tatara, so that she's in somewhat of a cage*
Chiriko: What the…?
Chichiri: *knocks on the plant, like a door* Hello no daa?
Tatara: *from inside* Go away! Leave me alone!
Hotohori: *motions to Tasuki* Tasuki, you want to deal with this?
Tasuki: LEKKA SHINEN! *the plant goes up in smoke, leaving a quivering Tatara behind, sitting on the ground*
Tatara: FINE! Kill me if you want to, but then Amefuri and Kokie and Subaru and Toroki are going to come back here and kill all of you for killing me!
Hotohori: *kneels next to Tatara* We're not going to kill you. Why would we do that?
Tatara: *looking up in surprise* You're not? But…you kept Byakko no Miko hostage for a month!
Chichiri: No…she arrived here, and we were keeping her safe no daa…
Tatara: That's not true! You didn't want her to become Byakko no Miko, did you?
Tamahome: That's right. We didn't want her to become Byakko no Miko because, if her power falls into the wrong hands…
Tatara: And you think the wrong hands would be our hands, don't you?
Miaka: Frankly…yes.
Tatara: I'm not going to listen or talk to you anymore!
