Overview

Jiro, Ichiro, Reiko, and Akida are once again being chased by machines sent to capture Akida. They are saved by another Kikaider. This Kikaider is Jiro and Ichiro's younger brother, known as 00 or Rei. As they continue to run, now with Rei by their side, Reiko remembers the place as somewhere she's been before. She tell the three Kikaider brothers that she's been here before and they head down there to check it out. As soon as they got down there, a barrier surrounds the Kikaiders, paralyzing them. Gill then shows up and tells Reiko that she is actually a android created to protect Akida and he was the one that put the memories into her head. Reiko refuses to believe Gill until he makes her transform. As Gill gets ready to kill her, Beijinder transforms into her robotic form and grabs Akida and Reiko. She then breaks the barrier surrounding the Kikaiders and flies off with Akida and Reiko. As the Kikaiders fight more machines, Beijinder and Reiko are flying through the forest. AS Beijinder takes the lead, Reiko drops the 'Pinnochio' book she got from Jiro earlier and heads back with Akida to find it. As she spots the book, she puts Akida down and goes to retrieve it. As soon as the book was in her hand, Gill shows up and shoots her. Akida watches in horror as Reiko falls to the ground. When the Kikaiders show up, they find Reiko's bleeding head and from out of the bushes, a sad looking Beijinder also discovers what's left of Reiko as well.
