And look at all the cop-out plot twists: characters appearing out of nowhere, or just happening to be in the right place at the right time, or developing important special powers at just the right moment. Even those presumed dead have an annoying habit of making dramatic comebacks. What can be even more frustrating, though, is that plot developments are quickly glossed over; instead, more pages are dedicated to fight scenes and other physical struggles, meaning that any deeper explanations will have to wait until next time. Not that there's much of a "next time" left.
When Éclair is pushed past the breaking point on a new mission, however, it becomes apparent that even having lost her memories won't prevent her from repeating the actions of her forgotten past. Her rebellion against Eclipse's orders gets her and Lumiere stricken from the ES roster and labeled as renegades, to the amusement, shock, and/or dismay of their fellow ES members. Éclair and Lumiere are left to fend for themselves when an elite strike force is sent to hunt them down, though Amblast (who is still traveling with them) might have something to say about the matter. . .
