Cliff...
You're no different from those scientists at the Egregori...
You treat your allies like things.
Kei Kuruma...
Once again, your test results are beyond remarkable.
You've even surpassed previous results on visual.
It's almost shocking.
As for the physical results...
adaptability, maneuverability, attack power, speed...
you're in a class by yourself.
Further...
I'm so sick of bein' her partner...
That rookie don't even know her own limits.
Why is it always us takin' one for the team?
Team, my ass.
She ain't part of no team.
Whaddya gonna do? How can she be on the team...
when the bitch ain't even human?
She's one of those "Arms" guinea pigs who...
Kei!
Kei! No!
Who NEEDS their team.
I'll just...
live alone, by myself.
All alone.
Is he...protecting me?
How exasperating, this Ryo Takatsuki.
Jeopardizing himself to protect someone as weak as she?
Can't you even read these?!
How stupid are you?!
Here you're just a guinea pig!
You make me so angry, the two of you.
You and the comrade you're so desperate to protect...
I'll destroy you both.
30 degrees left. Crouch low and run!
What!?
Next: Keep straight ahead!
Kei Kuruma...
So your eyes read my psychokinesis!
The more fool you.
They'll be plucked and crushed for your trouble.
Carol! Stay low.
Brother!
We're right here... yet you've forgotten us.
There's no stopping you.
We're safe.
He doesn't know about these tunnels.
He can only destroy...
if it's direct line of sight.
Don't tell me you're...
Uh huh.
Hayato and Takeshi, gotta go save 'em.
Kuruma...
you stay hidden here.
You... You're crazy!
What can you, alone...
do against that "Satan, " Cliff?
His destructive ability's too strong...
He's a monster, even to the Egregori!
Looking at you, I...
I get so mad!
So they're bait in a trap...
do you have to walk into it?!
You have no strategy...
so you get damaged.
It's... It's ridiculous. Idiotic!
Kuruma... Look!
I know you're comrades and all that crap, okay?!
But keep me out of it!
I...
I'm better off without it.
Please take a moment to reflect upon your actions.
We are an organization.
What an organization needs...
are people who can cooperate with their teammates.
We've no need...
of those who cannot.
You "don't need. "
I'M the one who doesn't need.
I'll get by on my own.
All by myself.
I think maybe you don't get what "comrade" really means.
I didn't, not till I met Hayato and Takeshi.
From the day we were born, without our knowing it...
we'd been implanted with "Arms, " and...
How can I put it?
We share the same fate.
Which is why... we're like siblings.
Siblings?
Born to the same fate, what else can we be?
Even if we're not blood related...
our bond's even stronger.
Which is why, no matter what happens...
we'll never abandon each other.
Hide where you like!
I've my hostages, and...
What?!
How did... When?!
Now, this way...
Ryo won't be distracted.
But, Misa...
is this really wise?
Oughtn't we be helping Ryo?
Yes.
And this is how...we help best.
By believing in Ryo.
He'll be just fine.
My husband and I, we raised him to overcome...
any battle, no matter how difficult.
Puh leeze!
"Siblings"?
"Bonds"?
Even more pathetic than "comrades. "
Like I'd ever believe it!
You think?
You wanna buy into that crap, you guys go ahead!
Me, I'm outta here.
Wait, don't!
It's dangerous!
Who do you think I am?!
I'm a made for combat "Arms"...
the Queen of Hearts.
I can see a bullet being fired...
read a book a kilometer away...
my strength is far more potent than yours.
Kuruma!
My eyes...
Their power, mine alone.
But, really...
what is it they've seen?
Amazing... So this is "Arms"!
What remarkable ability.
What's been seen?
Because of them...
I'm seen as mere experiment.
Anger...hatred...and also...
fear.
So here you are, Kei Kuruma.
I've been searching.
You released the hostages while I wasn't looking.
You certainly are...
the Queen of Hearts, all right.
The name suits you.
I...don't know what...
Well then, what think you?
For a queen's welcome, are the likes of me enough?
I...I can't move!
It shall be grand, Kei Kuruma...
your own grand finale!
Brother...!
Kei!
Why...?
WHY...?!
Why did...?
Such a fine friendship.
But tell me...
how is it that...
still you can resist transforming into Jabberwock?
Though not for much longer.
If I were to increase your pain...
knowing how protective you are...
you'd transform at last to save them, I think.
Have I another choice...?
Brother, no!
What would be the point?!
You're mistaken, Brother.
You mustn't!
Don't tell me what to do, Yugo.
I tell you what to do!
Do it yourself, then, Yugo...
At the moment, Ryo Takatsuki...
is quite weakened.
Jabberwock is mere moments away.
Brother, what are you saying?
You know quite well.
Use your telepathy to wreak havoc on Ryo Takatsuki's psyche!
I... I won't give in.
Not ever!
As I hear it, the last time Jabberwock awakened...
was when the Katsumi girl was killed.
A dangerous illness, despair.
Who said that, I wonder?
Despair is the key to Takatsuki's death...and Jabberwock's life!
Now then, Yugo...
with all your might...
show him images of despair, of Katsumi dying!
Brother, no. I would never...
You would defy me, then?
Poor, lonely Yugo...
Your own brother... your only blood relative.
In touching you like this...
you must realize I can drain the power right from you.
Now then, Yugo!
Share your power with me, as I so desire.
Stop...
Who is it?
Torturing me...with these images.
No.
NO.
Katsumi...She's alive.
She is.
She HAS to be.
Why?
Why didn't I run faster?
Why didn't my arms reach farther?
Why...
Why wasn't I stronger?
< >
What is this?!
Such strong vibration, I never...
You're awake.
It's bad!
...Man. Yeah, I get that.
The vibration...!
It's Takatsuki, yeah.
What...
was that?
Something wrong?
A vibration.
And of such intensity, it could only have come from "Arms. "
I can only conclude...
that they've succeeded.
Such a force, only Jabberwock could emit.
Keith...
Your face...that scar.
Yet the one Jabberwock calls...
is myself.
Power...!
Power...
I want it!
Amazing.
Would you look at it!!
At last it has emerged...
the ultimate fighting machine...
Jabberwock!
Such magnificence.
For so long...
so long...
have I awaited you!
So that...
that...
is "Arms" true form.
Who are...?
Can you stand?
It's dangerous here.
Follow me.
Ryo...!
If you're to live through this...
there's something now you must do.
Run.
Ryo Takatsuki...
had THAT thing inside him?!
Ryo...
If you're to live as human...
you must confront the enemy within.
THAT...will be your true battle.
From the very day I was born...
it's been you, and you alone, I've longed for.
No...
even before I was born...
it's you I've awaited!
Brother...
Now, come! Jabberwock.
Your enemy is myself.
Allow this "Satan " to show you ultimate power!
Such energy!
This is Cliff's power?!
Hayato and Takeshi are inside. You go ahead.
I'm Misa Takatsuki... Ryo's mom.
Takeshi, let's go.
Hey!
Such ominous power...!
My brother...
such strength...
I've never seen.
You're not afraid of me?
A small girl in tears?
Ought I to be?
Cliff's forgotten me.
What a great feeling!
As though the gods themselves have descended to imbue me.
A Second Coming!
Jabberwock...
Meeting you has made me free, unfettered!
At last, the use of my full power is at hand!
Now you, too...shall feel it!
Ryo...!
