The Apocalypse has locked thirty thousand players inside the game, and no one knows what to do.  The larger guilds are taking over Akihabara, and outside the city violent groups are Party Killing other players.  A young female member of Marielle's "Crescent Moon Alliance" is trapped in Susukino, far to the north, and needs their help.  Shiroe feels somewhat embarrassed, but makes a decision.
If someone you know is crying, you help.
Weint jemand, so hilft man ihm.
Si alguien que conoces llora, lo ayudas.
Il faut aider les siens.
Se qualcuno che conosci piange, tu lo aiuti.
Se alguém que você conhece 
está chorando, você o ajuda.
Своих надо выручать.
