One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
Five strong ones.
So those five are leading individual teams in the battle.
Not a Yoma. She's an Awakened Being.
She was once human.
There are too many of them.
At this rate...
Where did they go?!
What is this?
Something...
Something terrible is coming.
Impossible!
That's... Rigaldo...
The Silver-Eyed Lion King,
Rigaldo!
Veronica!
Behind you, Captain!
Quite impressive.
However...
I am going to ask you to step aside.
I have no interest in small fry.
Ah, ikutsu-mono yoru o koete
Koutta yume to kieyuku namida
Warm me, warm me, wrap me
Hito o aisenai kono mi ga nikui
Doko made aruitemo owari ga mienai
Kako no kioku o michizure ni
Kono mi wa nani-iro ni somari-yuki no darou
Kotae o sagashiteru
I'll kill you...
I'll kill you!
You certainly talk the talk, at least.
Sorry, but you are going to have to die!
Clare! Deneve!
Stay back!
You're the one he's after, Miria!
He's gotten them all!All our captains!
Damn it all!
He's not getting away with it!
I'm never gonna let you die!
Damn.
Dodge it, Deneve!
What?!
Oh-ho...
Impressive that you saw that coming.
Perhaps it would be more accurate to say you sense it rather than see it.
You won't get away with it.
I'll kill you!
Daddy... Mommy...
Brother... Sister...
Priscilla...
Let her be.
Because otherwise, she'll be saddened.
There's no need for you to be so shocked.
It's a normal thing for her, after all.
You can't live if you don't eat.
And in her case, it just so happens that what she eats are humans.
But...
She's an Awakened Being.
I told you so earlier, remember?
Is that something Priscilla...
Something Priscilla wanted?
Even I don't know the answer to that.
But she surpassed her limit in a battle somewhere.
It's the fate that burdens all Claymores.
W-Wait a minute. Did you just say "Claymores"?
Yes.
Awakened Beings are what Claymores ultimately become.
Then...
...the daddy, mommy, and brother that Priscilla was talking about...
Probably memories from when she was human.
Human...
Can't Priscilla revert back to being human?
Impossible.
Besides, there's no need for her to revert back.
But Priscilla is...
I don't know what kind of dream she's having right now,
but it's her fate that she became this way.
There's nothing you, or I, can do about it now.
We'll be leaving this place shortly.
You get some rest until then.
Just who... are you?
You'll find out in a little bit, I'm sure.
Clare...
You do not learn, do you?
Charging in recklessly will yield no results.
Damn.
Miria!
All right!
I see.
A phantom...
You move well, as a captain should.
No, Clare! Leave it to Miria!
Deneve!
How dare you?!
Deneve?! Deneve!
Damn it...
This is pitiful...
Hang in there!You're not done yet! Don't you just give up!
Nevermind me.
Go help Miria and Clare.
Don't let those two die.
Deneve...
Those two are the key to this battle.
They will determine how it turns out.
I understand!
So you stay still there and heal your wounds! Got that?!
Stay... still, huh?
What a sorry mess I am.
Any respectable Number 15 would laugh in my face.
"Don't try too hard all by yourself." Hah!
"You have friends." Who was I kidding?
I...
...not only couldn't protect Undine...
I couldn't even land a scratch on the bastard that killed her!
You're in my way.
Damn it!We can't even get close at this rate!
He's fast!
He's keeping up with Miria's phantom like it's nothing.
No...
Miria's the one who's just barely managing to keep up with him...
It's no good! I'm slow!
Why is my body so slow?!
You're free to do as you please beyond this point.
What will it be?
Now, once we get over that, we'll be almost there.
What's wrong?
You're getting slower.
Are you reaching your limit?
Damn!
Oh-ho, so you can still keep going...
Or so I would like to say, but...
It seems it is no longer possible for you to evade me completely.
Too bad for you.
The end is near.
Stay out of this, small fry.
You spoil my enjoyment.
Clare!
It's no good... Not like this...
I need more speed...
More...
Hey! No! No!
Don't go any further!
What's wrong?
Don't you stand there and ask me what's wrong!
This is no time to be here!You have to run!
Run?
We're talking about Yoma, of course!A ton of them showed up!
Considering the direction you came from, it's Pieta, right?
Yeah. There're Claymores fighting for us, but...
No, with that number of Yoma, there's no way they can make a dent in that!
That's right. You guys run, too! Or you'll be killed!
They've mobilized even their lowest ranking member,
but they simply don't stand a chance!
The lowest ranking member?
Is that true?!
Yeah, that's right! So hurry up and run!
It's Clare...
Clare's there!
I used too much Yoma power in my damaged state.
It doesn't look like I can stop it from going out of control.
So, while I'm still aware as a human,
I will take my own life.
If she hadn't stopped it then,
Clare would also have...
Daddy... Mommy...
Brother... Sister...
Raki.
Being helpless is a crime.
Please, Raki.
Let me go.
Quickly. Or else...
...my awareness as a human...
I'm sorry.
I don't want to lose anyone ever again.
It can't be helped.
Now, shall we go, too?
If you thought you caught me off guard...
You missed!
It seems it wasn't the phantom that I got this time.
Miria!
Damn!
I will take your head and it will be over.
Damn it.
Why is my body so terribly slow?
Damn it!
I promise you.
I will not die.
I will survive, without fail, and see you once again.
So, don't you die, either.
I will come find you, without fail.
So you survive until I do.
It's a promise.
We promised!
That we'd live to meet again!
So... So, this time,
I'm going to protect her!
Clare...
If only I had more speed,
I could have saved both Jean and Flora.
If only I had more...
More... More...
More...!
More!
More...
If only I had more...
What... is this?
Clare!!!

Overflowing grief, overflowing rage.
The lion's roar.
