Tozawa and Masane investigate a strange string of murders, and hope the crimes have no relation to the lonely man recently befriended by Rihoko.

After Masane gets spotted during a fight, she must attend a fancy dinner party as punishment.

Rihoko falls ill and must be tended to by someone besides her mother; after battling the Cloneblade Nora, Masane finds herself in the hands of the NSWF, with Father waiting.

The NSWF studies the captive Masane, looking for insight into the relationship between bearer and blade; the agency gets a much closer look at the Witchblade's power than they expected.

Masane and Rihoko go on the run after the Child Welfare Ministry attempts to use DNA evidence to separate mother and daughter; Dr. Nishida tasks Nora with hunting them down.

As Reina and Rihoko's relationship suffers, Masane's mental state suffers too; Maria rises to the challenge and embraces the Cloneblades.

Reina and Masane rush to save Rihoko from Maria's jealous rage, but the action unfortunately attracts the attention of every X-Con for miles around.

As the residents of the Natsuki Building head off for the beach, Takayama warns Masane that Witchblade and Cloneblade alike take severe tolls on the life of the bearer.
