That light... What...?!
Keith Red!
You've shown me your power.
And, with it...
you've no hope to defeat me.
Behold! the might...
of my Mystletain Spear...!!
Get him?
Up there!
What?!
It won't matter.
Get up close and use the rotors to cut him to bits!
He passed right through the rotors.
But he's still just about through!
What th'?!
We can't... We're going down!
What should we...?
Snap it up! Send reinforcements...
Ridiculous!
Tangling the rotors with a wire...
Takeshi...
Seems you've put the strategy I taught you to good use.
Going after the rotors... the weakest part of the helicopter...
The enemy never knew what hit 'em.
Lieutenant Higgins!
He's right behind you!
Fine, try it!
I've one final present for you all...
Gotta disarm that bomb in a hurry...
Very nice, White Rabbit!
But that bomb can't be disarmed!
What did you...?
The moment I stop breathing...
an automatic timer planted by yours truly will start the countdown.
But... But then your comrades will...
"Comrades"?
Listen here.
I've been ready to die all along.
But I also decided something else...
That it wouldn't be alone!
Ten minutes after I'm gone, so is this city!
That arrogant bastard Col. Gauss...
his "Snark Hunt"...
you and everyone else, in one fell swoop!
You don't value your own life...
so you take others with you!
I won't let you do it!
Impossible!
The cyber arms of the Gryphon...out!
What is that spear made of?!
Keith Red...
Behold!
The spear of my soul...
the true power of Mystletain!
Don't get ahead of yourself.
My arms will come right ba...
Why?! Why won't they regenerate??
For naught!
One function of Mystletain...
is nullifying nanomachines!
Never again will they regenerate.
You've no hope of victory.
Way to go! Hurry and finish him!!
Ah...
So your spear bears the same "Arms" properties as that of Jabberwock.
I'm more intrigued by the moment.
However, Knight!
Do not underestimate the Gryphon!
Even without my arms...
none can survive my sonar might!
My head hurts...
Damn Keith...
He's using ultra sonic power!
Well, Knight?!
Like the Gryphon's sonic power??
At this level, it's strong enough to tear your body apart...!
It's no good!
I've removed all the wires, but the timer won't stop!
What'll I do?!
It'll go off soon...
and the whole city will...
I have to do something...
anything!
There's one way...
Take this...
in my arms...
and carry it as far as possible.
Somewhere...there's no people.
And that...
I can do.
Tho' it'll probably kill me.
I want to live...
How many times have I thought...
"Why am I even alive?"
"Why must I go on?"
So many times... I thought I wanted to die.
That's right.
After meeting Takatsuki and the others, I changed.
I get it now...
my life is important.
And it was they who saved me...
taught me the meaning of living.
Takeshi...
C'mon! Don't be afraid.
You'll be fine. Don't be scared!
This time...
I'll save them!!
I'll protect the ones I love!!
What...just happened?
Fear not.
My name is White Rabbit.
I and the host body are one...
his legs, and his wings.
True courage...
the source of my power...
has awakened in your heart.
True courage...?
Yes. For even at the cost...
of your own life...
you save family & friends.
Now...Grasp my power.
Command me!
And I shall obey!
Then...fly as fast as you can!
You and I will probably disappear from the face of the earth, but...
if that means everyone else lives...
So! Fly to the farthest edge of the sea...
Before this bomb explodes!
Then you must wish even more!
All things are possible...
which first begin with desire.
That is the power...
which moves "Arms" to action!
That's it! Even more.
Hurry. We must move...
faster than the wind...
faster than sound...
faster than light!
To cut through night's dark.
Ahh... So this is "Arms"!
It is "Arms," indeed.
A pure and earnest prayer...
deep from the heart...
empowers me with speed...
faster than sound.
Our power is without end.
A new humanity, evolved!
Well, Knight?!
Is this your limit??
To a second rate machine...
like you, I shall never fall!
You are a fool.
Keith...
As you say, we may once have been brothers...
We were so alike...
both consumed by revenge.
But...
here's where the resemblance ends!
Farewell, Keith.
It should go off soon.
But we've come a pretty long way.
Thank you, White Rabbit.
We've done all we could.
I...have no regrets.
Not yet.
We've still something to do.
Even "Arms" cannot bear...
the full force of the explosion.
We must carry the bomb...
where the blast will be weakest.
Deeper...deeper still.
To the ocean's depths.
Do or die, huh?
We'll see if my body...
can bear the electrical shock.
Here. Clothes.
Sorry...and thanks.
You're lucky the shop over there opened for me.
If you kept walking around town like that...
they'd think we were all perverts.
Listen here...
It's not like I'm going around naked in the middle of the city...
'cause I want to, you got that?!
Anyway, Al... Thanks.
For what?
When I...almost died, I heard you crying and calling out my name.
Ex scuse me?! Who cried?!
When was that?! What time?!
I just wanted to say thanks, okay?
You too, Carol, Old Man.
It's we who should be thanking you, Hayato.
Has this managed to purge you of the feelings of revenge...
that've consumed you for so long?
Yeah...that's over.
Nothing is over, Hayato Shingu.
It's only beginning.
Hear me...
It was not I who killed your father.
Do you follow me, pitiful brother?
Enough joking!
After all this, you're still making up stories...?
It was burned into my sight...
the look of your face, that night!
And, perhaps someday, you shall understand the truth of that.
If you survive the battle for this city, that is.
I'd hoped to reach such heights...
By using Jabberwock's power...
I'd intended to climb even higher than those who gave me my orders.
However...it was not to be.
Does that make me just another defective piece of their machinery?
"Their"...?
You...and I...
We're just puppets in the arena of someone else's research.
Our actions...our will...
No more than data for a grand scheme that's long been planned.
This is the core chip.
It controls all nanomachine functions, the heartbeat of "Arms."
Each of you has one, too.
It breathes life into "Arms."
And when destroyed, "Arms" dies.
Such is the extent of your existence.
If I'd been able to kill you tonight...
you may in fact have been better off.
For what awaits you now...
is nothing short...of sheer hell.
In life, he was a warrior.
In death, a pile of mere ashes.
For one who lived his life as he...
his death was suitable enough.
Yeah, right. I'm nothing like you.
And even if we are just guinea pigs...
in someone else's experiment...
I'll break down the cage and be free!
Whatever hell lies ahead...
I'll overcome it, if only through sheer will...!
White Rabbit...
Can you fly?
Electric shock has shutdown...
80% of my functions.
But once I'm back up to 50%...
I'll be able to fly.
All right. When you're powered up again...
Let's go back to the city.
Everyone's waiting.
And everyone's alive...
in our city.
I can hear voices!
Hayato, and Takeshi!
They're faint, but they're okay, and they're calling out for Ryo.
Takatsuki? Hayato?
Can you hear me? Is everyone all right...?
Takeshi!
You're alive!
Hayato...?
Yeah, I'm still here.
Yugo! Your telepathic powers, they're back!
Yes, but not yet all the way.
Give me a bit of time, and I'll be back at full strength.
Yugo found the enemy command post. We're very close.
It's at...
Aisora Stadium.
Gotcha. We're on our way now.
Yugo... You okay?
I just need a bit more. I'm sorry.
It's good to know everyone's okay.
Let's get a move on.
Okay, but...
that trailer.
It could be a mobile command base.
It seems they've special equipment set up inside, for security.
Even I, the Queen of Hearts, can't see through it.
And that's not to mention how heavily this area is under guard.
To be completely honest...
I don't think we'll make it out alive.
Maybe not, but we've still gotta go.
To bring this battle to a close...
To protect this city, and our friends!
Keith Red has been destroyed...
Higgins is dead...
and our special bomb strategy has been foiled.
Jabberwock will come any time now.
But...even Keith, he wasn't able to defeat those original "Arms."
And this Jabberwock is supposed to be the worst of them...?
Do we even have a chance to win...?
What nonsense do you speak?
Wielding a sword against sword...
A gun against a gun.
That's what fools do.
Throughout history...
what weapon has destroyed more lives than any other...?
Not swords, or guns, or even nuclear weapons.
Watch and learn.
There is no such thing as defeat, not for a true hero.
