When negotiations for peace turn sour and civil war breaks out in the small country of Barik, Mithril is the only force capable of infiltrating ground zero to save the innocent refugees caught in the crossfire. While the Special Response Team executes their plans with precision, the Barik army returns fire with weapons that Mithril never saw coming. Will they be able to escape the turmoil of this war? They better… Sousuke has a test the next day and he still needs to study!
Someone has been peeping on Kaname, the proof being compromising pictures taken unsuspected and posted on the web. Sousuke sets out to find the culprit, dogging Kaname's every step and creating his own brand of high-tech havoc. He hasn't acted this weird since his first days at Jindai High School! But thousands of miles away, Mithril's most recent battlefield is being inspected by a crazed arms dealer who knows the tell-tale signs of a Lambda Driver… And he's dead set to find it.
Yanked from his studies, Sousuke and the SRT are deployed to shed some light onto a political nightmare. A terrorist group has kidnapped delegates from the cease-fire negotiations between the warring factions of North and South China. If the hostages are saved, the cease-fire stands and everyone is happy. If not, the brutal civil war between these two halves will begin anew. The stakes rise ever higher as communications go down, mixed signals and static… And Sousuke has a math test tomorrow!
Mithril is hot on the tracks of the loose cannon Gates in the subterranean tunnel system… Or is it the other way around? The situation quickly turns dire when their communications system is hacked by one of their own. Now that Gates knows each movement Mithril makes, ambush waits around every corner for Sousuke and the SRT. The goal: Capture the Arbalest! Separated and operating in the dark, can an earlier paradox guide their steps to see them safely through?
Having betrayed Mithril, former Intelligence Operative Vincent Bruno has gone into hiding with the mafia in beautiful Sicily. Seduced by a dark-haired delight, he painfully learns that the SRT has crashed the party. As the plan goes offline, Sousuke shows up in… the getaway car? It's a high-speed gunfight in eveningwear, when Kaname calls to chastise the young Sergeant… He's missing his mid-terms! As the pursuit becomes high-tech, a mysterious M9 shows up to cover their escape.
As Sousuke finally faces his exams, the recaptured traitor Vincent Bruno is being put to some rough questioning of his own. From him, Mithril learns of a mysterious organization running things behind the scenes, known only as Amalgam. Seeking to make sense of it all, the internal rift between Operations and Intelligence becomes apparent. Post exams, with his future weighing heavily on his mind, Sousuke lets the girls talk him into a much-needed haircut. But can he learn to relax and let his guard down?
