Full Metal Panic!

Two months after Sunan, Sousuke and Kaname are in a holding pattern. He'll fire his rifle off the school roof, she'll yell at him to stop, lather, rinse, repeat. That all changes one day, when Sousuke's commanding officer Teletha "Tessa" Testarossa shows up at his apartment, trying to hide a key to a terrorist superweapon of unprecedented power. Tessa is brilliant, pretty, and the same age as Sousuke, and her presence might put a serious crimp on his relationship with Kaname... assuming the city survives the night!

On orders from Mithril, Sousuke has been forced to abandon Kaname to focus on learning the secrets the Arbalest and the lambda driver. Meanwhile, Kaname-left to the care of a remote and anonymous intelligence agent-feels the threat from a mysterious pursuer drawing ever closer. Their challenges will lead them both to the tension-racked streets of Hong Kong, a city even more divided than the burgeoning couple's destinies. And a series of climactic showdowns will bring them to a reckoning with enemies old and new!

Clouseau and Mao lead the charge in Afghanistan to prevent nuclear war, while Sousuke and Tessa invade Merida Island, intent on stopping Leonard and his world-changing TARTAROS device. With resources depleted and the very world changing around them, their desperation to find each other is all they have left. Will Kaname awaken from her nightmare? Will Sousuke get through to her in time? Will anyone survive?! All bets are off in the explosive final volume of Full Metal Panic!
