Synopsis[]
The arrival of Diane's sister from America forces Miss America into her greatest crisis, where she ultimately must switch with another to save her team and her family.
Plot[]
Diane’s sister Catherine, comes to Japan from New York for a visit. She is escorted by Maria Nagisa, an agent that Tetsuzan Shogun sent to America to train with the FBI. Additionally, before he died, Diane’s father personally supervised her training.
However, before they can rendezvous with her, Egos captures Catherine. The Egos American branch, in tracking Mr. Foster, deduced that Diane was Miss America. So using Catherine as bait, they trap Diane. Attempting to torture her, with vampiric blood loss, Diane narrowly escapes. However, too seriously injured to fight, she asks Maria to take her place as Miss America.
In the end, although she has healed, with her identity exposed, she returns to New York with her sister, leaving Maria in her place.
