A refugee living in Japan has plans to "reset the world" and change things. But are his plans merely violent daydreams, or something more sinister?

A routine live-fire exercise goes wrong, leaving a fleet of AI controlled helicopters flying above a refugee area, firing on anyone who comes near. And a mysterious and creepy man known as Gohda arrives to tell Section 9 how to handle it.

The Major and Batou are flown to Berlin in an effort to track down a terrorist called "Angel's Feathers". While there, Batou attracts the attention of a young girl in a wheelchair.

The tables seem to be turning in favor of Section 9, but the nuclear missile is still being prepared for launch.
