The next day was her last one. She had been fighting with the remains of the Spiders against the Blakist forces, but this time, when the Broadsword Legion came to their aid, chose that moment to attack the Dragoons for the back. They Spider's Battalion was very weakened by the previous fight (for example, Grape hadn't even managed to replace her 'Mech's lost arm) and were slaughtered. Grape tried to warn Church about the betrayal, but the Blakists, or more probably the Broadsword Legion, were jamming the Dragoons communications and she, separated from his unit, could only hear fragments, nevertheless coming to the rescue of her people.[2] However, when Church's Mad Cat arrived to the scene, it was too late.

Church still don't understand what happened, but she did it when Grape screamed her to escape... just before the Thug's foot crushed the Loki canopy like a soda can, killing him instantly, before turning to her.[3]
