Haruhi apologetically tells Junna that she cannot explain everything to him and he must be the one to choose his future, but she'll accept whatever he decides. No later, the town is suddenly engulfed in a fog, and because of this, everyone is instructed to stay home. Junna sees Tomo again and follows her down an alley, remembering that she told him that she'll watch over him. On his way, he does not see Senna, who has come to talk to Junna with the dial. Junna ends up on the school roof, and Tomo reveals herself as the Keeper of Time. She says that only Junna can decide what he want, and takes him back to the time of his childhood, on the day he was separated from his parents and Haruhi.
