Episode 20 - Touya Dies
I wonder what it is, this bad feeling... Because it's been a while since Touya hasn't been here at night? What am I gonna say when he gets home? He'll probably be surprised. "I'm pregnant. It's your's, Touya." Will he be happy? Will he tell me not to do it? But I... I want to have it. I want to have it for you, Touya. We've gone over the scheduled time. Yuuhi, please get in the boat. Yuuhi. We can't wait anymore. Get in! What about the other guys... and Shouta? And Touya? He probably... won't return again. Like hell! Everybody was fine and alive just a while ago! Of course he's gonna return... Shouta! Oniichan (=brother, but here not literally. He is referring to an elder person - Yuuhi). The doctor... Doctor Kiritani was...! Doctor Kiritani! Throw away your weapon. Or I'll snap this child's neck. Let go of Shouta. I won't try to escape. Doctor! Shouta. It's ok - go. Doctor... OPENING Chapter 20 Touya Dies I'm home. Touya, you're home, right? Hey... you're there, right? So it was that after all. I thought maybe it might be... But I bet Touya is overjoyed. How do I say this... I think that he was wanting this... you know, a family with blood relations. So? What do you want to do, Aya? Touya wanted this too? A blood related family for Touya... I... want to have it. Next tiem, I'm gonna have to give Touya a preparatory lecture for becoming a Dad. Oh, Doctor... Should I get the nurse that just arrived to go buy stuff for food? If it's not... any bother. It's nothing of the sort. Don't hold back, eat lots! Oh, Doctor... ... if you don't, you can't become a great nurse! Man, I'm full. Shall I make some coffee? Yeah, please. You too, Aya? Yes, I'll have some please. Oh, yeah. I tried asking Gen-Jiisan (Jiisan = oldman) from the village about the hagoromo. He said there was one in Niigata. A fragment of a Tennyo. I don't know if it's true or not but the ladies... ... were apparently good at fishing, and when they put the hagoromo on, they could actually become the fish or something. What? Is that true? He's just randomly making things up again, isn't he? Actually around a hundred years ago, there's some story about a part fish part human body being discovered. Well, it's what that old man says. So it probably isn't that credible. Are you sure, you're okay without me taking you home? Yes, thank you very much. Doctor Kurotsuka, he was really like a father. Goodbye. I should have... I should have gone sooner. For myself, for the hagoromo, for the Mikage family. I... am going to the Mikages. It's been quite a while since we've relaxed and sat down to dinner like this. Your job, is it keeping you busy? I'm carrying out a large project. My marriage to you... I couldn't even make the postponement date. Please give my apologies to the Toudori (= head / president). We don't mind. My father is even scolding me to work more diligently in my training to become a wife. Besides, it's quite fun polishing up all the plans for the wedding. For example, about the baby... Kagami, a boy or a girl, which would you...? I don't want one. What? I don't want a child of my own. O-of course. We don't have to rush things, do we...? A human woman, huh... The Military Organization signed to cease fire on July of 1953... Wrong!! (en concurso televisivo) We will strive to make a kind environment for the Earth! For the Earth? For yourselves you mean... And now, this incident is a shocking story about a young mother who is threatening to throw her 1-year-old baby off the third floor of their mansion, but... It seems like, "Again?" Recently, there have been an increasing number of cases where mothers are killing their children because of breakdowns caused by childcare. In this case... Okaasan (=mother). I'm sorry! Okaasan! You're a Mikage child, you know?! Are you aware of that? You're a Mikage child! Next time for sure... Next time for sure I'll be first so please! (lo dice Kagami de pequeñín) Abroad, drug addict parents are abusing... What is it? (qué pasa? por tfno) What? Aya? Got it. I'll be there in another 10 minutes. Put that thing on her. Congratulations on your pregnancy. As your cousin, I will give you my best wishes too, Aya. I'd hardly call these handcuffs. It doesn't matter. You won't escape. Because here, is where we have the hagoromo that you've been looking for. That is... the shield created by the C-Genoma's magnetic forces. Hold down Ceres' desires. Where is Touya? He died. You're lying. Later, I'll give you a memento. Then show me his body. It's not here. Alec threw it away in the ocean. Autopsy? A cell preservation as a sample?! You intend to use him even after he's died?! I'm sorry, Touya. If I can't return you to Aya's side, then I'll at least give you to the ocean that you couldn't let go off. I won't believe it. Then, what do I have to say to have you believe me? Chief, you're not going to show her here, are you? I don't mind. She is the original anyway. Parasu, send the Type A image to Monitor 3. Now, this way. (enseñando camino) This is the ovum we extracted from Chidori Kuruma. This is where they are hybridized with sperm from specifically chosen men. We had planned to return the artificial fertilization to the interior of the womb and make them deliver that way. What the hell is that? Half of the C-Genomas here are the same as you, pregnant women. Among them, there were some virgins as well, but they all agreed to it. Anyway, fertilization is nothing amazing. You have a natural pregnancy. Here, it is artificial fertilization. What's born is the same. You're wrong, it's not the same! Well of course, maybe we've influenced genetic alteration a bit. In any case, whatever is born... they are excellent children. Because I loved Touya! That's why it happened! That's why I can say... "Your Dad and Mom loved each other and that's why you were born." I see. "Isn't there love?" you´re asking? Then, let me ask a question. Why do males and females have sex? The answer is simple. To leave descendants. It's the act of regeneration set in the genetic codes of one species. In the beginning, an organism without any definite sexuality divided into male and female... two different genetic codes in order to unite and reproduce. That encouraged evolution and - adapting to environmental changes and bacterial resistance - we gained a flexibility. In the biological world, it is the survival of the fittest. You know they exist. For example, an incompetent female sleeps with a stupid male for money. It sickens me to think of a stupid woman who gives no thought to the future at all, bearing a child and becoming a mother! One day, destruction will come - what's so wrong about preparing new descendants for that? Tennyo, as women, possess incredible beauty, intelligence, and capability. If they're aliens, so much the better. Who the hell do you think you are?! You're really that great?! Even if I don't do it, somebody will do it in some other way! This is just a trend in one big flow! Even love, it's just a illusion in order to reach regeneration. That's why, surely one day it will become cold. And then you will betray each other, hate each other and kill each other's hearts. You're wrong!! Oh right. I'll give this to you. Touya's memento. Your brother and your husband... this is the result of their fight for you. If you die, you can't even express your love. A gun huh. I'd never used one before but now I see it's quite powerful. H-hagoromo... to Ceres... return it to her. That is... a Tennyo's possession. Hmph. The hagoromo doesn't even... You have to return it! I know you're recreating it here at this laboratory. What? I see. That bastard Kagami... You have to return it. Release her from this bloodstained earth. It's not only Aya. All the people involved with the Mikage family. Aki! Stop hiding in that guy! Aya has been waiting forever! For you... Shut up! Go home to her, Aki. To your little sister! Aki... the hagoromo... to Aya... Shut up! Aki... SHUT UP!! Give that to me! So, you want to die that badly? I wasn't going to cut your breath short in order to lure Aya but... Aki... Aki!!! Master... T... Touya... OPENING 2 FIN
Episode 21 - The Ancient Tennyo
Will she wake up? She seems to have taken a lot of mental damage. Ceres will awaken. The hagoromo is here, after all. What about Aya? I don't know. Either way, it wasn't a good thin that Shiso found out about the re-creation of the hagoromo. According to Wei, supposedly, he temporarily turned back into Aki. Did the shock from killin Touya reawaken him? All I wanted was to know the mystery of the legend. And that, if it was for mankind as Chief said... Please return, Aki. Then, will you give the answer to ease my troubled mind? Ceres, that woman is close! She's my woman! What is this? Who tied me down?! Kagami, once you've got the hagoromo in your hand, am I just dismissed?! I'll kill you! Aside from the woman, I'll kill you all! The drug! It's useless. From being drugged and put on the machine everyday, the Shiso himself is going insane. If Aki doesn't return anymore, we're all ruined. OPENING Chapter 21 The Ancient Tennyo So, it was you who woke up after all, Ceres. You've been sleeping for three days. I'm Gladys Smithson. I will escort you through the institution. Your children are waiting to meet you as well. They're your children. You're the original mother Ceres, right? You're the one who awakened the blood of our ancestor? You are all okay with this? Being trapped in a place like this. Bearing the child of a man you don't even know. Being trapped? We were protected. It's peaceful here. It's dirty outside. We are special. We have intelligence, and we're beautiful. To create descendants of specially chosen men is our duty. Those children are going to create a new world. A beautiful world. Us being with a worthless man, you've got to be kidding. We're going to throw away people's ideas, feelings. We're going to the skies! When the hagoromo is completed, each person will receive one! Then, let's go together? Ok? Ok? We'll go together? What's wrong?! What's wrong? Ceres... is she ok? Everybody, calm down. I'll go look. Ceres, are you ok? I'll call someone from the medical team immediately. Where is the hagoromo? Take me there. Doctor Howell. Take a look. Where am... what is this? Doctor. All his wounds have disappeared. Alec! Aki. Is it really you, Aki? Alec, what have I... Remove the belts. Are you all right? Hang on to me, please. Excuse me. You fool. Did you seriously think I would return the body to this brat? Where is Ceres?! Tighten the security in the building. If you can capture her alive, I'll approve the use of your guns. Yes sir! This is pretty bad. I can't stand this anymore. I've had enough. For this kind of thing, I can't... You were supposed to be prepared for this from the beginning. To carry out this project, I told you you may even have to be a devil. I can't become a devil nor a god! I'm just a human being! Chief, you're the same, just a human being! I'm here. Ceres, it's useless even if you do this. With my ID, we can only get through to the next door. Get in there. Finally I've caught you, Ceres. Master! You've given me nothing but trouble thus far. The re-creation of the hagoromo? Ridiculous. In that room right there? In front of the hagoromo preservation chamber. You must not wound Ceres in the least. Take extra care in capturing her. Bring it up on the monitor! A shield? You can't use a Tennyo's power in this laboratory. Your power is something I shared with you. Of course it shouldn't work. What's with those eyes? Speaking of which, apparently you said that I forced you to become my wife against your will. Like you could tell such a lie. You become my wife of your own free will, did you not? "I loved you." Is that what you're trying to say? What? How self-conceited can you be. I understand. I shall tell you the true story. I just wanted the seed of a man. To create descendants, that is the Tennyo's true objective. It's no wonder. Because this figure is bait. Men believe that we are the ultimate women, and want us with one glance. The thing called "man", is such a foolish and short-sighted existence. Too bad, but to me, you are nothing but "another man". You... It's not as though I accepted just any man. Only the best were chosen. The hagoromo has the power to choose those men. I simply waited for that man. The reason why I gave you power, was to make you a stronger man, and produce superior descendants. However, the hagoromo made a mistake in its selection. Shut up!! You're the one who killed Touya. Touya?! What about him? Were you planning to get his seed after being reborn as Aya? It can't be... already... He was a good man. Much better than you. You whore! Who the hell do you think you are using those around you?! Wait, please! Master, Ceres is... You're in the way! Stop! The Tennyo is our ideal! What ideal?! Get the hell outta the way! Just a seed? With another man? Don't screw around! You bastards... doing this to me... Gladys, you protected Ceres well. No matter what, I'll save you. Chief... What is it? Ideal... our ideal... Chief, you're the same, just a human being! So that person died. If the hagoromo had been completed, she maybe have been saved too. According to the legend, the hagoromo is an item that flies up to Heaven. But, you can already move around in midair. Therefore, the hagoromo has a different purpose besides that. In Japan, it's referred to as the Tennyo and her hagoromo, but in foreign countries they've been changed to various different things. Poland's white robe, Scotland's seal-skin, China's fur. Each female appeared to be a swan, mermaid, wolf, or white cat... Apparently, the Tennyo of Niigata could freely take on the form of a fish. In other words, the thing called "hagoromo" is a system designed to prompt a momentary cell change. That is why you can transform. Yes. You change and then, your figure adapted to Earth's environment. You... where did you come from? I don't know. I really don't know. Where I came from, where I am going to go. I don't even know if this is my true form. We exist only to produce descendants. That's all. I'm tired... extremely... let me rest. Ceres. Ceres. Aya, you were awake? What's going on? Didn't he make you his wife against your will? Tell me. What happened with the Shiso? You saw it, right? It's that. There's something down there... I didn't see anything. We're going home. This is... I found it in the forest. Is this yours? Yes. Was it you who found it? That is my mana (= immaterial power believed to be inherent in certain privileged people)... it itself, is my life. It is a custom in our clan, to bestow ourselves upon the one who found that. Will you... have me? The man's name was Mikage. His tribe was overjoyed, seeing it as a joining of God's will, and they accepted me. Receiving a beautiful flower every day, Mikage was the first to do such a thing. Now that I think of it, that must have been a custom of proposal... And then, one night a month later, he gave me handmade earrings in the shape of my mana. It's dull. Any flower still whithers. Maybe because you're near? But the most beautiful flower is Ceres, you yourself. So that you will never whither, I want to protect you with my own hands. If I can become one with you, I will give you my all, my life. It was my first feeling. Men were only seeds until then, but I even thought that we could live together forever. However... Mikage! I am a disgrace to myself. If only I had just a little bit of your power. Don't be so hard on yourself. Then I shall grant it to you, just a little bit of my power. So that you and your kind heart, shall never be wounded again. So that you will be protected. How is the Shiso's condition? There are no worries about his life. Just... Stop it! Don't make Aya suffer anymore! Aki. Shut up kid! No, I won't. I will never lose! Shut up!! I came back here just to see my wife. Where are you Ceres?! Mikage? I met them. I killed them. It's a massacre. I will become stronger for you. More. More! From that day on, my husband changed. As if to simply show off his power, he would attack other tribes. Those who feared my husband and flocked to him came together, and the tribe became enormous. Please! Stop this! You're not supposed to be that kind of man! Mikage! This is all for you. I'm going to give you the ultimate life here on Earth. With my power! You don't set a foot outside! I won't forgive any other man looking at you either! I was afraid of losing my power. His obssession with me became deeper with each coming day, and in order to bear my third child, I thought I would move to my other home but... Mikage! Give me back my mana! Give it back! It's my life! If I don't have it... Tonight is the celebration of our child's month. Don't spoil everybody's joy. Please give it back! If not I... Shut up! That thing, is going to take you away from me one day. You belong only to me. You're my woman. Forever. Where did he go? That person who loved me so? Perhaps he never even loved me from the beginning. From the beginning... Kaasama (= mother) hurry! Before Dad gets home! Where do you think you're going? Dad! Mom is getting weaker every minute! Please give her back the mana! Or else Mom is... No matter if it's our child, I won't allow anybody to take you away from me. Even then, in my heart I still believed. That someday... with him... But... Why? Why?! Why?!?! In the end, a man is just something that gives you a seed. What use was it trying to understand each other's hearts... it was foolish. If we just produce descendants... Don't lie! You loved him... you wanted to be loved, didn't you? Right? Ceres?! Answer me! All right, Shuro. Wanna test it? Yeah. FIN
Episode 22 - The Voice of Revenge
Aya, she really went there alone... That idiot! She thought that she could bring back the hagoromo all by herself. At this rate, Aya will be... I know! Both of you... come with me. Who is this person? His name is Shuro Tsukasa. He is a singer popular for the young age. Before he sang a duet with someone, but now he goes solo. This person is also a decendant of the heavenly maiden. He has considerable powers. Shuro... To tell you the truth, I don't want to depend on him but we have no choice. He is our last resort. OPENING Chapter 22 The Voice of Revenge Ohh, I'm sorry. Are you alright? H... Hey! Ceres, this way please. (enseñando camino) But that girl... Don't trouble yourself over this. It is nothing. But... I see. It happened again. This makes it 29. Both the C-Genoma subjects and the decendants of the heavenly maiden have been decreased to half. There are very few that remains as the decedants of the heavenly maiden. You are going about this the same way our decendants have done in the past. Boss, the Dagunalic members are waiting for you. Dagunalic... The gods' dusk... You lost another C-Genoma subject again, haven't you, Mikage Jr.? Is the C-Genoma Project really progressing as planned? Dagunalic's purpose is to produce superior beings that will help the future. The C-Project is one of these purposes. So for that purpose, all of us have contributed our funds to your project. Junior... you even used your country in these experiments. We're counting on you. If we are a success in Japan, then the world comes next. The power of the heavenly maiden is very useful to us. I am especially looking forward to see the completion of the hagoromo. What was that all about!? With their attitude!! They knew how important this C-Project is. Just the Mikage family is not enough to process with this project. We just have to hurry up on our plans now. He must be very popular. That is out of the question! This is an important time before the concert starts! I see... Q-san, let's go. I don't mind at all. What!? It's ok, come in. I'm sorry to bother you at this busy time. To force you like this. You are also a decendant of the heavenly maiden, right? I knew right away. Well, what do you want with me? Me? You dress like a man, but you are a woman. What!? Surely I'm one of the decendants in Okinawa... my great grandmother said. Yes. I'm a woman. But you were with Kei in the men's dormitory. On our debut... Kei and I knew each other since we were little, we are relatives. Is that so? One day when he came back to Okinawa some organization tried to contact us. Because of the trouble we had with them... Kei... died... Mikage... Soon after, I noticed a change within myself. It was jut about the same time when I saw many other girls just like me in the newspaper. I was investigating it myself. All of them came from the heavenly maiden. I uncovered more details, and I discovered that there was a laboratory involved. That's why... I'm doing the concert here. Here... ... will be my last concert. Your last...? This is my decision. Your decision...? The only thing I can do now... ... is to sing. I don't know what you guys are asking me to do... But I'm going to do it my way. Aya... How are your feeling? It seems you are not well. In a moment, Shuro Tsukasa's concert is about to begin. Shuro...? A name of the heavenly maiden... Jiyuno. He is one of the decendants of the heavenly maiden that we failed to get in contact with. Her life will not last much longer. You better see your friends. Last much longer... You! You don't mean... After bringing both decendants of the heavenly maiden and the C-Genoma subjects here, some have already died!? It can't be that... All of them are starting to change little by little...? I don't have to answer that. Why Kagami!? If it is all of them... That means their children as well... This way please. Is it completed? I see. (mirándolo) This is the hagoromo. This person... Is a decendant of the heavenly maiden... My fans... One more time... Give me your strength. Give me... your strength! Amazing. Have everyone's power unite. Rise up. The last... Ultimate song. All problems... Will be solved! It can't be. Aya. Just wait. I'm coming to get you. What's this!? What!? What's going on? This is... The heavenly maiden's gravitational force. The hagoromo is in fertalization... Get it to a shelter. Yes sir! My power! This girl... She's in no condition... It's my fault... All the decendants... Everyone... Everyone... Stop it! Don't... Don't do it!! Stop the song!! Shut off all monitors!! It's no use! The computers are out of control... It's releasing excessive power. My lady... Don't do it. You'll die. Stop it!! All problems... will be solved! Aya... Aya... Chidori... Aya... Hang in there. I can't... anymore... If it's because of me... Stand up. It will be alright. A miracle will occur. I've been watching. Please, live for the sake of our lives. You are going to get back your most precious value, aren't you? Chidori... Kei... I'm going to... take back the hagoromo. I definately will! Stop right there! Don't get in my way!! It's no use. My powers are fading away. I can't seem to even fly... I must hurry... To be united with my hagoromo. What's our status? The main computer as well as all other components have been destroyed. Use our backup power! And what of the C-Genoma subjects? All of them has gathering in the central hall... But some of them show signs of suffering. Boss! This facility is no more! Anyway, don't let Ceres leave. I sympathize for the situation that you are in. I heard the details. Words travel fast. In this situation, it will be difficult for you to continue your work. We will take over from now on. Give us the hagoromo, Ceres, and C-Genoma plus whatever else is still useful. Even if the ones that survived die soon, we can still experiment on them. The hagoromo will be able to change anything into its good form. It would be better for us if we could live a bit longer. Anyway, I will go to retrive our goods. I hope you will stay in touch with us Dagunalic members. You say you want the hagoromo...? Get real! Where is the mana...? W... Wait... I won't do anything. I am called Howell. The mana... where is the hagoromo!? Well... I myself just got out of my laboratory. I know where it is. Please follow me. Is Aki already on the ship? Yes. But the C-Genoma subjects... I ordered them, but they wouldn't listen. The outside is dirty. We will not leave this place. I understand. Where is Aya? Ceres... Yuuhi! Ceres!! Damn it!! Sister... Ceres is on that ship. We have to follow them. This is... the hagoromo. Mana... I finally found you. Are you alright!? My... strength... is... Our sponsor Dagunalic and I have separated. I still will not give up on this C-Project. If I have you, the hagoromo, and the fertilized eggs. You fool. You still want to continue... Is mana... the hagoromo...? Yes. The hagoromo is part of our body. We cannot live without mana. Without the mana... they can't live... We are only women who can't progress like human beings can. We produce mana... or mana produces us. Even now, the memories are fading away. We must keep our decendants... But even with the bodies that we use, we still can't live without mana. So a heavenly maiden without the hagoromo... Give back my mana. Mikage's child, my poor decendant... I want you to understand. I can't let you go anywhere. I will give you to noone. What's that? That is... That is... Touya. OPENING 2 FIN
Episode 23 - Mikage Revived
Touya... It can't be... Mana! Why!? Touya... Touya!!! OPENING Chapter 23 Mikage Revived Why!! (porque le dan un puñetazo) Yuuhi!! Hurry up! Why are you here? Why are you alive? You're already dead!! I want to say that it was a hard moment for me. Boss! Please get inside. I will take care of him. And this time I will make sure he stays dead. We will almost be able to see it. But... Q-san, who are you!? If you think I'm just a regular maid for the Aogiri family, you have me all wrong. But that's beside the point. Isn't that the dearly maiden's seal belt? Yeah. My sister made it for me again. She wants to fight with us. Ohh this... Chidori also played her part in making this. She was going to give it to you... before that happened... We can now see it! Alright! Take her down close! (Her = al helicóptero) Yes! After I jump, you tell my father to bring more choppers. I got it! You should stop right now. Sorry about that. That time I took your left eye. I'll give it back. Aya! Yuuhi... Don't let Aya escape! Stop right there! Touya!? You guys go on ahead. Don't chase them. I don't want to kill you anymore. Boss! Boss... Don't worry about it. Anyway, they can't escape off this ship. I will give Ceres to no one. What... is he...? Touya... Touya. Why don't you give us an explanation? You should have told us sooner if you were alive. Why do you have the mana? I was made from the mana. My purpose is to bring the mana back to Ceres. This is the mana's memory. It happened 5000 years ago. The mana is just a solid body if separated from the heavenly maiden. If it is separated even longer, it will start to break down. But that mana has been going on living. In the ocean, it sacrificed those that lived there by receiving their energy. Inside of the barrier, a life was being created. While it continued to create mana... It wanted to follow the memory of this life form To move this life form by producing celular tissue... during those 5000 years. Once the ultimate life form was complete... ... the time had come. You shouldn't do that, Touya. A person doesn't have any fangs, wings, your tails. Don't change that. Become a human being. Use a person's words... wisdom... and tools. Even though I lost all memories by accident, the mana gave me power to protect myself. Then this time the mana... It took time to recreate my brain, but this shock made me remember everything. I'm going to check outside for a while. Yuuhi... The hagoromo and the sea created a person...? You can't be serious... Let's go find them!! Stop fooling around! Stand aside!! Let's go this way!! What? What is calling me? This is!? This... is what called me!? I understand. I'll let you handle the rest. Suicide... all of the decendants... Our future mothers... Because this place is dirty. Because humans are ugly. That's why we are returning to heaven. I'm going to return the mana. Because that is my purpose. If I don't lose my memory, I could give it back to you earlier. Wait! What will happen to you!? If the mana is returned then... you don't mean... Don't! Don't do it!! Never remove the mana! It's ok. No... Aya... If my mana is not returned, my body won't last much longer. And you won't give birth... Aya... you don't have to worry about me. I won't have it!! Even without the mana I can still live!! I definately will give birth to this child!! There is a baby inside of me. It's your child, Touya. My... child... That's right. Your baby... is inside of me right now. You know... I... I'm very happy. Because the life between you and me... You said it yourself... you are alone. Well, not anymore. A baby with our blood will be born. You are not alone in the world anymore. You are not alone anymore. We will start a family... because of this child. Always... into the future... It's in there, isn't it? My child. Yes. Your having my baby... Yes. I'm... really not alone anymore, huh? I... Aya... Touya... I love you. This body is carrying your baby. I realized... to love each... moves you toward the future and create life. What is this? It can't be... this... What's that!? Who the hell are you!? And what happened to the hagoromo!? What's so funny!? The hagoromo is right here!! What is it? It's him! Aya, you wait here. Touya... Take care of Aya. This is horrible... Alec. It's... too much... Isn't that enough... How many must die...? What happened to the hagoromo? I saw it... The hagoromo wrapped around him... and it united with him, creating a different person. Mikage... You survived...? Who... are you!? I am the being made from the mana you threw away. Only for herself... it exists. Is that so? You mana puppet. I never realized such a toy can get in my way. It's something to laugh at. Where is Ceres!!? Why you... I'll kill you!

After I killed Mikage. I continued to look for my lost hagoromo. Beyond the sea... Crossing over the islands... Was the last place... I reached. But I couldn't find my mana... And I had no choice but to leave... My children behind. I prayed dearly... For my children to find happiness. And then... One day to meet again... To go to where my children are... But... I really want to be alive... To live... I want to live. What the!? Mikage... He is close. He will come back again. Aya... You were always... Ceres... was always looking for this... The hagoromo. Touya... With this... I was born for this purpose. With this... you can live. For sure... And for the sake of the baby. Don't... If you give me the mana... you will... I can't be... united with the mana anymore. But Aya... because of that... I can become a human. I'm not doing this to die. Just as a human... I want to live with you. Even if it is for a short time. Always... Always... That was my wish. After I met you... Always... Always... Loved you. Touya... Aya... Always... Love you. Touya. Get out of the way. You... You won't lay a finger on her. For her... And for our baby! You!! You returned it... You've returned the mana to Ceres!!! Kagami!! Doctor!! Where is a doctor!!? Aogiri... Aya... Did something happen to Aya!? Aya! You are weak without the mana, Touya. I'm going to torture you to death! Because you stole my woman. Touya!! Stay back!! Why Mikage? Why Aya... Why did you kill Ceres!? Why is this the only way that you could show her your love!? Don't... make her suffer!! Why you!! What do humans know? You're a puppet made from the mana. You should talk like one. I'll finish this right now! Touya. Become a human being. The language, tools... and the wisdom. However... humans have a more precious thing to them. To love someone else... When you have the feelings. Aya... DIE!!! Ceres... A complete body... This is what being one with the hagoromo is... The tennyo. Get away from Touya... Mikage. Ceres... why you... Thank you. Touya. I have received the mana from you. For Aya's sake, You gave up your immortal body. Just like I did a long time ago. I was close to becoming a human. Because I loved him dearly. But... It's time to end this. You and I... And our long waited destiny... Has come to an end with ourselves. To end this? I won't have it!! It was long... very... Our decendants... as well as the Mikage family... As foolish humans do, I was thinking of becoming a human myself. But when I was born within Aya's body... Touya's love for each other, meeting Yuuhi and Chidori. From them I once again was able to believe in the human heart. Shut up!!! I won't let you do what you please!! I have the same mana you have! That mana is not perfect. You've noticed. You can't restore your body... Because it is not used for humans! Yes. It's in the past. We don't need it. Rest in peace. For the sake of your children. You'll pay... You'll pay for this!!! Ceres... Yuuhi! Aya!!! I... I will not lose anymore. Aki! Why you!! Aya! Do it! Now that you have the chance, kill him!! I see. With the mana's power, it showed its true form. Touya... Sorry for being late. Aya! I can't hold him much longer! Now is your chance to kill him!! To kill me with him!!! Do it!!! Don't worry about me! Hurry!!! Wait! Wait Ceres!! Aki is... Aki is my older brother!!! Aya... He is... Mikage is already combined with the unperfect mana. You understand, right? We can't save him anymore. If so, With our hands... We can end his suffering. Aki! That is... his wish... Aki!!! Aya... My older brother... My brother!! My brother!!! Is this the... the result of what you wanted!!? You guys all forgot about your hearts... the most precious thing!! Without that, what can you do!? What can you replace that with!!? Get real!!! Boss... Alec... We can't control the main engine. We can't shut off the energy tank!! At this rate we'll...! Attention everyone... everyone aboard ship. I repeat. Get off the ship immediately. Boss... Boss... This is... That disk contains everything that Mikage worked on in developing this project. After everything has settled down, you will publicize it. But if I do that... If this goes down, then the Mikage family will follow. I will entrust the tennyo's children to you. Find another way... To give those children their futures. I'm counting on you, Alec. Boss... What!? You can hear me right... Touya? Why you!!! So you locked us in!! You plan on running through the fire? You can hear that sound, right? Everyone! Are you alive!? Yuuhi! Aya! We came to get you!! Hurry and go. This hip will begin to sink. Touya... Aya will become a good mother. Protect that child. Since you are the father... Kagami... Boss... Mikage... Mikage... Can you hear my voice? Yes... I've... always wanted to ask you. Did you... love me? You... didn't know...? I... loved you too. Just that... I was scared of losing you. Until I lost control I... always... always deeply loved you... Let's rest Mikage. With me. Now we can rest in peace. It's over. Finally... Investigators are now entering into the Mikage International. The police are also involved and... After how many thousands of years, is the tennyo's family line finally over? No, father. Aya... she is still there. She has overcome her cruel destiny. So by the way, where is Yuuhi? He went to go see Aya. At the Hachijou island. How are you feeling Aya? I mean your stomach? You should say "How's the baby doing?". Let's see. Hey you guys! The baby will be surprises if you (touch) it there! Your child? It's ok, it's ok. What do you mean "It's ok"!? Anyway, that's good news... that your mother is feeling well. Yeah, after I have the baby, I will take my child to see her. I too feel that one day I will see my mother again. I'll enjoy it. You'll definately meet. But until that day comes, you will be a top chef. Yeah! Yuuhi! Let's go buy the groceries for tonight's dinner. Aogiri. Touya. Aya is really doing fine. I was really worried about her during Chidori and Aki's funeral but she will be happy from now on. With you... And your child. I... might not live very long. Aya know this. One year... or two years... or more... I don't really know. But... when that time comes... Aya. Touya. I fell asleep. What's wrong? I was dreaming. Dreaming? Yeah. Everyone returned to heaven. And then... Aya... thank you. Did you pierce it on right? Aki was smiling with joy. Everyone... Everyone was smiling. I see. I have many stories to tell my child. The meaning of being born... and about living... and of love. Everyone taught me... really precious things. To be with you. Yes... To live... Together forever. We entrust the future on the many children that will be born. Bring the joy of happiness to our children. THE END
