Shota!
Mommy! Mommy!
Shota! Shota!
Mommy!
Nurse, what's happening?!
We're checking on it now. Please return to your rooms.
Miss Akiyama!
I feel much better.
I feel this healing force inside me.
But it's strange...
everything around me is breaking apart.
How can I stop it?
Miss Akiyama...
This isn't good. Everyone, get back!
Aya! Wake up, Aya!
We have to get a doctor right away.
Not only did she hit her head...
she was hit by that strange light.
She was trying to protect me.
Shota...?
Just like Mommy...
Just like Mommy and Daddy!
Shota! Wait!
Suffocation...?
No, implosion.
They never knew what hit them.
Kumi Akiyama.
Has she awakened as a celestial being?
What about the other two?
Dr. Kiritani!
Mr. Yoshizuka is missing!
What about Shota?
Someone saw him going up towards the roof...
Damn! What's going on anyway?
Aya!
Why'd you have to hit me!?
You were on top of me, so l...
I'll have you know that...!
Shota! Shota!
He blames himself for our parents' death.
He thinks it's his fault...
because they tried to save him.
If that's true, then I'm even more to blame!
I'm the one who insisted we go to the aquarium that day.
Daddy had a rare day off.
But it started to rain so heavily, he said we could go another time.
But I kept nagging them.
I wish I'd listened to them.
I wish I hadn't acted like a little spoiled brat!
That's why you're determined to take such good care of Shota...
It's not your fault.
And it's not Shota's fault.
Your mom and dad really loved the both of you.
The fact that you're alive is proof of that.
So let's do our best.
Look where Shota is!
You don't have to worry.
It doesn't bother me in any way.
Actually, I'm impressed.
You were husband and wife in your former lives.
It's not like that!
I don't understand it at all.
I was doing it before I realized it.
And I...
What's bothering you is that...
that woman now just happens to be your younger sister.
But you don't have to feel guilty about that.
Did you know there's a place in this world where...
twins are referred to by the same word as "fiancé" to signify special lovers?
In contrast, in some places in Japan...
twins were abhorred as the reincarnation of...
Iovers who committed suicide together.
There are even legends...
that the world was created by twins who joined in love.
In essence, this world is just made up of men and women.
That's all.
I'll dub the videotape Toya made.
Don't you want to see how Aya is?
Aya...
Aya... I'm going mad.
I really feel as though I'm going mad.
Shota! Shota!
Chidori!
Shota! You'll be all right! I'll be right there!
Hold it! It's impossible from up here.
Any more weight on that and it'll collapse.
Shota, listen up!
Just stay like that and start crawling backwards.
If you go slowly, you'll be all right.
I-I can't! I can't move.
I can't move!
I'll go around to see if I can get over on the other side.
What's that?!
I can't! I can't move!
I can't move!
Shota! Try harder!
If you stay like that, you'll fall!
But I can't move!
I'm gonna die!
That's better for me.
Mommy and Daddy are gone. My legs don't work.
I'm just a burden to everybody.
I can't stand it anymore!
If I die, I can go to Mommy and Daddy!
I won't have to suffer anymore!
Don't be ridiculous! How old do you think you are?!
I've had to rely on other people to help me.
But I'd never give up from the very start!
What do you know about suffering?!
Say that when you've lived in this world a little longer!
Don't act so sassy!
Aya!
When times are hard, go ahead and depend on someone.
If it helps you overcome your problems, that's great.
Then you can do something for someone else later.
But...
You must not hurt your sister who believes in you so much!
What are you going to be when you grow up?
A pilot!
And I'll take you and Mommy and we'll go around the world!
That would be so nice.
Daddy... Mommy...
- Shota...! - Shota!
Slowly... don't try to rush, Shota!
Shota!
Yuhi!
That's not him!
You're hurting me!
Does that hurt? Are you in pain?
I'm in pain, too! Please help me!
I believe that's patient Yoshizuka.
He was one of the C-Genomes.
Stop! Please stop!
Don't hurt Shota any more!
Chidori!
Don't... touch... Shota!
Chidori!
Please! Please don't run away!
I'm not doing this on purpose!
Everything around me is breaking!
Please... help me!
Did you kill her?
I made her unconscious in order to capture her.
Capture her?
The Mikage spread false information that...
there was an outbreak of a deadly bacteria in this region.
They vaccinated people in the area.
Your body reacts if you have the C-genome.
If it agrees with you, your powers awaken.
If your body rejects it, it kills you.
Looks like this girl may overcome it.
The two left are Yoshizuka and Shota.
Shota?!
Did something happen to Shota?
Where are you going?
Your duty is to capture celestial beings.
If you do something unwarranted again, you'll be considered a traitor...
Doctor Kiritani.
So... I've been watched, too?
Who did this to me?!
Why am I in so much pain!?
Tell me what you know! Otherwise, this kid is...!
Let Shota go!
Who did this?!
Why must I suffer so much?!
Let Shota go!
Who did this?! Answer me!
Chidori...
Let him go!
Shota!
W-What did I do?
What're you doing?!
I'm taking her.
Toya! How long must you act like a puppet of the Mikage?!
Even if you can't remember the past... whoever you are...
Toya, you are still you!
I don't want you to look so sad.
If you must capture someone then capture me!
Doctor, please stop!
- Hey! - Shota!
I'm okay.
Shota!
Doctor, I'll do my best!
I'll listen to you. I won't run away.
So please don't take my sister away!
Shota!
Chidori!
Shota!
Are you all right?!
I stood up just now.
Chidori... did you see?
Yes, I saw!
Toya!
Shota!
Chidori!
I'm so glad!
But what a shock! Chidori transformed.
Does that mean she's a C-Genome?
C-Genome Kumi Akiyama.
She survived the vaccination.
Was she the only one?
Yes.
Hmm... that Chidori Kuruma is an unusual case.
There haven't been any C-Genomes since Aya...
who could cause changes on the cellular level by themselves.
Yes.
Chidori Kuruma...
Someday, we'll take her into custody like Ceres.
Shota didn't have any reaction to the C-Genome, after all.
Yes... I'm so glad.
Even if he was the only one.
What'll you do now, Chidori?
Oh... I'm going with you all.
What?!
What about Shota?
Shota said for me to go.
He said that he'd be okay.
He's going to be a pilot one day.
He won't give up just because we're separated.
But you're still in grade school.
I'm in high school!
- What?! - You must be kidding!
That's why I told you... I want to be your girlfriend.
Aren't you lucky? Such a cute girlfriend you have now.
It's no good.
I won't be able to remain as I am.
Please protect Aya.
