Into the Dream

The Christmas Candles

At the Student Assembly, Kaoru asks for the abolition of the Sorority. Rei is horrified at first, believing that it would destroy Fukiko's pride, but ultimately decides that she has to learn to live without the Sorority in order to be truly strong.

The Assembly

Two Sorority members, Ogiwara and Komabayashi, persuade Aya's friends, Miyuki and Megumi, to steal and burn the petitions. Rei stops them. Aya intentionally takes the blame to protect the girls, saying that she'd ordered her friends to do so.
