Worse than death? So shall it be.
Still, few hope against those who bargain their soul.
Hope that they will one day fall.
That the clamor of light will end it all!
And only in true light, shall we see darkness fall.
Beyond the twilight, embracing the light, now we will fly.
Beneath the stormy clouds, the city waits.
Our destined place.
Burning our faith.
Slaying the evil inside.
Fire in our eyes. Slaying the evil inside.
We are one.

This is simply an allegory.
An unreliable fairy tale.
There was a young man in a city that had been completely destroyed.
The young man had nothing.
Nothing he should protect. Nowhere he could return to.
Everything was buried under debris.
The young man noticed a child that had been buried alive.
The young man moved the debris, without regard for himself.
Without complaining of his skinned fingers and torn nails.
But after saving the child, he realized that the mother had also been buried alive.
The young man moved the debris again, without regard for himself.
Despite his torn nails, he grabbed a fork and dug at the ground.
When each person had been saved, another in need appeared.
The young man continued moving the debris, again and again, without regard for himself.
Covered in dust, he forced himself to go on.
The young man had nothing.
There was no reason for him to go that far.
But the young man could hear it.
The groaning that came from under the debris.
The lost children's voices seeking their parents.
The sound would simply not leave his ears.
People saw the figure, unselfishly pushing himself, as a hero.
When people try to pull themselves out of despair, they become heroes.
They can fight, holding the twisted fork in their hands.
This is simply an allegory.
An unreliable fairy tale.
However,
right now, here stands a young man,
having lost the girl he cared for,
torn by his inability to protect her.
Yet he continues to fight.
Yes.
A hero stands here.
Even the twisted fork may become a sword to sever evil.
Currently, Arkham City's ability to function has been lowered to 43%.
The police are handling the evacuation of the citizens to shelters.
The Dreaming Divine Mother?
It is still over the city. Still eerily silent.
I see.
Demonbane's maintenance should be complete in a few hours.
It's an enemy raid!
What appears to be an agent of the Black Lodge has infiltrated the base!
He is alone!
Just one intruder!
I've come for him.
To avenge Caligula.
The countermeasures systems at points J and K are down.
They have been broken through.
The intruder is continuing towards the central area.
Guards equipped with ES arsenal are heading to gate A26.
Gate A26 has been broken through.
Point L has gone completely silent.
He's too fast!
The intruder has stopped at point N!
What's happened?
I do not know.
But I am detecting another mystic reaction, different from the intruder's, at point N.
This mystic reaction, it couldn't be.
So you came.
I've been waiting, Daijuji Kurou.
I think you know that you killed Caligula.
You'd better not think that you'll get to die easily.
Don't act up, you brat.
How reckless.
Sonja, send a retreat order to Mr. Daijuji immediately.
Let us believe in him.
Winfield!
We have something we must do as well.
I'll make you into a beehive!
Hey, hey.
This is pathetic, Kurou!
What?
"I can't fight without my grimoire, Al!" is it?
Stay down.
I'll send you to where Al Azif is soon enough!
A mechanical doll?
So you guys took Hadou's side?
Elsa's always on Darling's side -robo!
Fuck off!
Hey, hey, hey!
Your back's wide open!
Are you stupid?
No, but you are.
What?
Mystic Cannon, "Dig-Me-No-Grave"!
Shit!
Fire!
Are you all right -robo,
Darling?
You saved me, Elsa.
Checkmate.
I won't show you any mercy because you're a brat.
Because of you, Al...
Al...
This is it!
Shatter!
Goddamn it!
Bastard! I won't let him escape!
Anticross has gone through block six and is heading north.
Partitions are being destroyed one by one.
Anticross has changed directions.
Beyond there is gate 13.
Demonbane's hangar.
Makoto, Sonja, lock the gate immediately.
Darling.
He's after Demonbane during its maintenance -robo!
I see now.
I won't let him!
Darling, we're going to gun it -robo!
Anticross has arrived at the final gate before the maintenance hangar.
This is terrible!
The wall won't last. It will be broken through.
I wanted to meet you, you stupid hunk of junk!
Anticross has broken into the hangar!
Mr. Daijuji.
You're late, Kurou.
I went to the trouble of waiting for you.
You'd better be grateful!
Bastard!
Suffer!
You shithead!
Stop it!
Let's play!
How do you like it? My stage?
It was perfect.
Message from the hangar, Commander.
They have succeeded in stopping Anticross.
I...
I see.
They did it. They did it!
Winfield?
What?
Warrior Winfield,
I've come to settle things with you.
Mistress, please retreat to a safe distance.
Winfield.
If the enemy has called me out,
then it is courtesy to answer him.
I thank you, Warrior Winfield.
Then, here I come!
Hey!
What's going on?
Has something happened?
Something odd is going on in the command center.
No!
When did I say I came alone?
Hey, don't forget,
I'm your enemy.
Hastur the Unnameable!
Lord Byakhee!
Deus Machina!
Mr. Daijuji?
We're going to activate Demonbane.
Winfield is dealing with the Anticross.
Just concentrate on defeating that Deus Machina.
Winfield?
Hurry and activate Demonbane!
Yes, Mistress.
Hurry!
He's just a doll without anyone inside!
I'll break him apart with Lord Byakhee!
Damn it!
I won't be able to get in, let alone activate it!
That's not true!
What?
Mr. Kurou!
Hurry! Now's your chance!
Okay!
Elsa!
Roger -robo!
Demonbane, activate!
B-But the mystic machinery is only 30% operational!
I can't get the output any higher!
I believe the cause is that the Anticross creating havoc...
...is lowering the base's operational capabilities.
Reroute all electricity in the base, except here and the evacuation shelters, to Demonbane.
Mistress!
Prioritize the activation of Demonbane!
Hey, hey! What's wrong?
Gonna fall already?
Annoying bastard.
No matter how much you small fries struggle, it's pointless!
It's no good -robo.
We can't stand up -robo.
26 seconds until full charge.
20 seconds left.
If you don't plan on waking up, I'll tear you apart here and now.
We're done for -robo.
Don't whine. Trust the princess!
This is the end!
What?
This, this is our Demonbane!
Demonbane has been fully activated!
We did it!
Mistress, please evacuate!
Looking away during combat?
You're mine!
Winfield!
What?
Ultimate attack, Fortissimo.
I'll slam you into the ground!
Not likely!
Timaeus, Critias: activate!
You bastard!
This is where it really starts, you damned brat!
Do you plan on continuing?
Of course.
Exciting.
Incredibly exciting.
This is the way it has to be.
If you were not here, there would have been no reason for me to come.
Give me your life!
The battle is mine.
No!
I'm going to shatter you with my full speed!
Screaming bird!
Darling, what will we do -robo?
Lemuria Impact.
Robo?
I'll complete Lemuria Impact in time with his charge.
Darling, that's so reckless -robo!
Princess, send me the Naacal Code.
Princess?
What's wrong, Princess?
Darling, he's coming again -robo!
What?
Looks like you can't do a thing without Al Azif!
So you should just die quickly, without resisting!
Understand?
You, who could not throw anything away.
And I, who threw everything away for power.
In the end, that decided the outcome.
Win... field...?
Winf...
Winfield!
Winfield, open your eyes!
Winfield, please open your eyes!
Commander, Demonbane is requesting the activation of Lemuria Impact.
No!
Winfield! Winfield!
Mistress!
No! No!
Mistress Ruri.
Winfield!
Have you forgotten what you must do?
Demonbane is...
Master Daijuji is waiting for you.
Now please stand up, Commander.
Do what you must do.
Winfield.
Please support me.
Understood!
I approve the activation of Lemuria Impact.
My forefathers, Betelgeuse's flame of cleansing,
unleash the giant's right hand,
the sword of ultimate victory!
Send the Naacal Code!
Darling!
All right!
I'll show you, Claudius, the power of our Demonbane!
This is for Caligula!
Shatter into oblivion!
You're the one who's going to be shattered!
Lemuria Impact!
Caligula!
He did it!
Yes, he did.
We did it -robo.
Darling!
Yeah.
Thanks to the princess.
I'll do it.
I'll fight to the end.
Right, Al?
So, it's my turn.
The piled-up assortment of time is maturing kasaneta irodori toki wa michite

Taking root in the vast earth, they resemble budding flowers daichi ni nezuite mebuku hana ni nite

Demonbane, if you're just cold metal, I'll share my blood with you.
So give me a sword. Steel that will never break.
Next time, METALLIC WAR CRY.
The sword that severs evil is yet to be broken!
