Urd is taking a hot, relaxing bath when a young girl
suddenly emerges from the water. Urd gets angry with
the girl named Skuld who immediately disappears back
into the water. She emerges from a cup of tea that Keiichi
has sitting there and lands on top of him. Urd follows
Skuld and also appears via the tea cup filled with hot
tea. She demands to know why Skuld would do this. Skuld
explains that she can only transport herself through
bodies of hot liquid.
As
the two begin to argue, Belldandy walks in and we learn
that Skuld is her younger sister. She hugs Bell and
Urd asks why Skuld didn't give her a hug as well. Skuld
lists all of Urd's negative attributes and Bell's positive
attributes. Skuld then asks Belldandy to return home
to the heavens with her. As she does, a giant, eight-legged
horse named Sleipnir appears over Keiichi. Skuld puts
on a pair of glasses and sees a rabbit creature with
eight-legs simply known as a bug. She whacks it with
a hammer (resembling a sledge hammer), killing it and
causing Sleipnir to disappear back into the floor. Then
Keiichi is literally flattened as another bug causes
problems.
Once
Keiichi is restored, Belldandy gives a long, scientific
explanation of what is going on. Keiichi figures this
problem could mean he could get sent anywhere when he
unexpectedly disappears. Belldandy fears the worse,
but he only lands in Urd's bath at her feet. The bad
things happening to Keiichi are due to him getting physically
close to Belldandy. She has a singularity inside of
her which is attracting the bugs. As bad things continue
to happen to Keiichi, the three goddesses don their
glasses and whack bugs, who have been multiplying like
rabbits. Skuld says they need a debugging program causing
Urd to question why Skuld hasn't already done so since
she is the Yggdrasil system debugger. Skuld is upset
because her sisters left her alone to do everything.
When Keiichi attempts to comfort her, Skuld asks him
not to treat her like a kid.
Urd
has had enough and launches an attack spell. The result
of this is even more bugs, several of whom open a gateway
beneath Keiichi to an alternate reality. Belldandy grabs
him and Skuld throws down a Skuld Bomb which
blows him out of the hole. Skuld then reveals she has
developed a method to resolve the bug problem which
oddly enough looks like a game of twister. This does
cause all of the bugs in the temple to be destroyed,
but with the Yggdrasil system still full of bugs, both
Belldandy and Urd will need to return to fix things.
Urd is ticked by this and launches an attack at Skuld
who counters with a Skuld Bomb. The bugs immediately
re-appear having created backups of themselves and causing
the goddesses to have to start over from scratch.
