"No, I said that they were like the Weapons in Final Fantasy 7," answered Setsuna.
Hotaru blinked. "But you play video games?"
"Well..."
"'Cause if you don't, how do you know about them?"
"I... have my ways. And that is not important."
Michiru nodded. "W have to know about these 'Titans' before we have to face them."
"Exactly."
"So, what happened?"
"Back before things had become as your past selves knew them, there was a group of individuals who were experimenting with forces great and powerful."
"Which couldn't have gone well," commented Haruka.

The four of them looked at each other in silence. This was not going to be an easy matter. In fact, they knew that they would likely have to call in the Inners on this. But there were other possibilities, and they might have to use them to stop the Titans.
And the first choice that they made was to:
