Those people!
Those people who do these kinds of things! Logos!
I won't forgive them!
NOOO!!!
Damn! Stop it right now!
You don't know a thing! That pilot is...
Shinn!!
Shinn? Shinn!
Rey.
You were having a nightmare.
Are you alright?
Ah...
Thanks.
Athrun and Meyrin, I...
They were enemies. They betrayed us, Shinn.
It couldn't be helped.
I-I know that! I know that much!
It's just that...
Was your nightmare about that?
I should've done the job.
You're far too kind.
And that's a weakness.
You won't be able to protect anything because of it.
In honor of your distinguished service during the Heavens Base battle...
...we hereby award you, Shinn Asuka, the Order of the Nebula.
Congratulations.
It's your second one. That's marvelous!
Thank you very much.
In addition, these are for Shinn Asuka and Rey Za Burrel.
Mr. Chairman.
Do you object?
N-No, not at all! I don't object!
It's just...
This is merely an acknowledgment...
...of how much we rely on your strength.
It is my sincere hope that you will wear them with pride...
...and continue to display your strength and not betray this moment.
I'm honored. I will do my best.
Me, ah, I... I will also give it my all!
- Excuse us. - We'll be on our way.
Yes. Thank you.
Congratulations, Shinn.
Thank you very much.
You're awesome, Shinn.
- That's two now. - Yeah, but...
It scares me that you won't say anything, Talia.
I must get going too.
I was sure you would have a word or two...
...about me making Shinn and Rey FAITH members.
It's a bit late to talk to me about it now.
There are many things I want to say...
...but not the kind of things I can blurt out here, so I'll stay silent.
If you have no intention of listening...
...to what I have to say, please don't bring it up.
No intention of listening? Come on.
I'm still not satisfied with the incident regarding the attack...
...against Athrun Zala and Meyrin Hawke.
I know you feel that way, however...
Mr. Chairman!
What is it?!
We know where Lord Djibril is.
We've received word from the Carpentaria lnformation Section.
From Carpentaria?
So, where is he?
Orb, sir.
What?!
The Seirans have taken in Djibril?!
Are you sure about that?!
Yes. There's no mistake.
In addition, it appears that ZAFT already knows about it.
As we speak, a fleet from Carpentaria is being deployed off the coast of Onogoro.
What is going on?!
- Where is Unato Ema?! - We need to send out an escort fleet, now!
Unato...Why would he?!
In any case, we demand that he be handed over to us!
Given his role in the Heavens Base battle...
...and through numerous statements we have obtained, it's clear he is a criminal.
The act of giving refuge to that man is not something that can be forgiven...
...by any stretch of the imagination!
A fleet has already left Carpentaria in response to our orders...
...but we will also take emergency measures to be sure we get him.
The Minerva is to launch immediately.
Our ship? From here?
We must show them that we are serious if we are to negotiate with them.
The Minerva should get there in no time.
I'm sorry to ask this of you. After consecutive battles, you must be tired.
But I'm counting on you, Captain Gladys.
Not only does Orb pride itself on its advanced technology...
...it's a nation with a route to space, because of its mass driver.
Honestly, that has me concerned.
Huh?
Should Djibril take Orb's military force...
...and unite with the Alliance forces on the Moon...
...there's a chance that the PLANTs' homeland...
...could find itself in danger again.
You haven't forgotten that he is the leader of Blue Cosmos, have you?
Are you suggesting Orb will help him?!
He's in Orb right now.
It's unthinkable that Orb is the only nation...
...that doesn't know that we're looking for the man!
Orb is a camp for Logos!
Damn Blue Cosmos!
That must be why they didn't join us when the Chairman called out to the world!
Until the Junius Seven incident, we considered Orb a friendly nation...
...and felt close to them.
When I think about it, I can't help but be disappointed.
But we have no intention of backing down in this situation!
We will no longer tolerate Logos and their actions behind the scenes!
We will bring him in, this time for sure!
Yes, sir!
Why aren't they sending us out there?
They're sitting right on the edge of our territory, right?
What? At Onogoro again?
Yeah, that's what the rumors say.
What is it this time?
What?! The government hasn't announced anything yet?!
No. It seems that the press isn't being allowed to report on the situation either.
What in the world is Seiran up to?
How much longer until all work is completed?
Engines, electrical network, restocking... To finish everything, at least two days.
Could you please hurry things up?
It will be pointless if we can't get out there in time.
Right.
Athrun!
Hey, hey.
Moving around like that isn't gonna do you any good.
Stay still and get some sleep.
But...
Lady Cagalli!
I know! You want to tell me that this may not necessarily lead to a battle...
...and not to recklessly dash out...
...and to wait and see how Unato and the others respond, right?!
Yes. And Colonel Kisaka...
I know that!
However...
Well...
...anybody who knows anything...
...can see through Durandal's deception right away.
R-Right.
If he were to take over this world, you guys would have no place to go.
Well, not to worry. We will begin our counterattack shortly.
He will return to space shortly...
Then when I follow him, the Requiem will begin to play...
...and everything will end.
Requiem?
You're an intelligent man.
If you wish to be among the victorious when the time comes...
...then you know what is required of you now, Unato Ema.
The Orb government is transmitting its official response.
I'll play it through the speakers.
On behalf of the government of Orb, I hereby reply to your warning.
Yuna...
The individual by the name of Lord Djibril...
...who you have demanded we hand over...
...is not in this country.
Yuna!
What?! Why...
Keep quiet!
Furthermore, this kind of intimidation, where the threat of force is used...
...is a gross insult to our dignity as a sovereign nation.
We find it deplorable.
He thinks that by saying this...
Therefore, we demand that you
...he'll keep us from attacking.
...withdraw your forces at once.
How could he?!
Does he really believe that his words will be enough, in a situation like this?!
Doesn't look like we're going to be able to get through to them.
At this point, I'm not about to join him in his little game!
If he insists on responding to our demands with such lies...
...in the name of justice and our desire for peace...
...I must take action!
Drag Lord Djibril out of Orb!
Yes, sir!
Operation Fury is now underway!
Upgrade to Condition Red! Upgrade to Condition Red!
Target locations confirmed.
The Seiran Estate on Orb's main island...
...and the Orb government Defense Headquarters.
Team Faton's ASSHs and Team Leelou's GOOhNs are ready for take off.
All machines, weapons free.
Although our target is Lord Djibril...
...don't hold back against the Orb government. They're Logos supporters.
Either capture or eliminate the target as soon as possible.
Try to keep city damage and civilian casualties to a minimum.
Mobile suits are being launched from the ZAFT ships!
ASSHs, GOOhNs, DlNNs, BABls, GOUFs!
What about the Orb Forces?! What's their formation?!
How are the evacuations coming along?!
There's no movement yet.
What?!
No evacuation warning has been issued either. Quite the contrary actually.
The citizens haven't even been notified about the current situation...
...off the coast of Onogoro.
Lady Cagalli.
What's going on?!
Orb's main island is being bombed!
It appears to be the Seiran Estate that's under attack.
Can't we launch already?!
Impossible!
We're not done with the engines yet!
Enemy mobile suits spreading out! Forty of them! They're coming at us!
Colonel Soga! The enemy attack is underway! Are there still no orders?!
What about evacuating the citizens?!
Keep calling the government! What is Seiran waiting for?
Why is this happening?!
I clearly told them that he isn't here, so why are they attacking?!
Because they know you're lying, sir!
Why did the government decide to issue such a foolish reply?!
But in the past, when we issued that statement about the Archangel...
Both the government and the situation are much different than they were back then!
Shut up! Come on! We must hurry and take up defensive positions!
Get our escort fleet ready! Commence counterattack!
Send out the mobile suit teams!
Don't allow them to get close!
First and Second Escort Fleets, sail at once.
Intercept all enemy invasion forces.
Mobile suit teams, get ready for take off.
Teams one through four, defend the Izanagi coast.
Amagi! We can send out the Murasames can't we?
Yes.
Then let's go.
Captain! Please let me use the Sky Grasper!
Lady Cagalli?!
We'll go, even if we're the only ones.
That's crazy! Out there in the Sky Grasper?!
Orb is about to be burnt to ashes again!
I can no longer sit back and wait!
Cagalli.
Colonel Kisaka.
Miss Erica.
Let's go, Amagi! We'll borrow their machines!
Wait, Cagalli!
I said I won't wait any longer! Let go of me!
I want you to come with me.
No way!
I'd rather burn to ashes with my nation than watch things unfold from here!
I can't let you do that. That's why I want you to come with me.
Shut up! Let go of me!
Calm down, calm down.
You may go if you wish...
...but we want you to hear the words of Lord Uzumi before you do.
My father?
That's right. His last will.
You'll notice that there are words etched on that.
Read them.
"With hope that the day will never come when this door must be opened."
"When this door must be opened."
By this he meant the day when Orb was in danger of being scorched again.
And this is Lord Uzumi's legacy that has been sealed in here.
A golden... mobile suit.
Cagalli.
Father.
Should the day come when you are in need of additional power...
...I shall respond to that need with this gift.
There are many things that I wasn't able to teach you.
But if you have the desire to learn, I'm sure you can fulfill that wish...
...with the help of those around you, who love and support you.
Therefore, I can only provide you with this.
Power is no more than just that, power.
Foolish are those who hope for it in excess...
...yet equally foolish are those who resent it for no apparent reason.
Think of it as a sword for protection. If you need this now, take it.
If it will assist you in doing what you must do...
...take it and proceed along the path you have chosen.
Father.
However, I had hoped the day would never come...
...when this door would be opened.
Now that you have opened the door, these remarks may be inappropriate...
...but please live happily, Cagalli.
Father! Father!
Cagalli.
Will you pilot the Akatsuki?
Akatsuki?
ORB-01, Akatsuki. System activated. Please launch.
Cagalli Yula Athha! Akatsuki, taking off!
They've broken through Aramatsubara's secondary defense line!
The main island defensive lines are collapsing!
We need to regroup fast or we'll be completely wiped out!
Then do it! Whatever you need to do! Hurry!
We're waiting for you to issue orders!
That's nonsense! If we lose, it'll all be your fault, you know!
What?!
What?! Reinforcements?!
The defensive line needs to regroup if we're to hold them off!
First we'll seize the Defense Headquarters, and then work on reforming the battle line!
I want one team to come with me!
The rest of you, get to the defense line!
Yes, ma'am!
Colonel Soga! Reinforcements have just arrived offshore.
What?!
The identification codes belong to machines aboard the Takemikazuchi!
Are you sure?!
What?!
Also, one unknown mobile suit is approaching us with Murasames.
What's that?!
A golden...
l am Cagalli Yula Athha, daughter of Uzumi Nara Athha.
Defense Headquarters, can you hear me?!
Because of my sudden return, you may question the validity of what I'm saying.
Can you put the Commander in Chief on, please?
Cagalli! Cagalli!
Oh, you've come to help me! My honey!
Thank you! You're my goddess!
I'm the Commander in Chief! It's me!
Yuna.
Are you saying that you acknowledge me to be Cagalli Yula Athha...
...Chief Representative of the Orb Union?
Of course! Of course! Of course!
There's no question about it in my mind! She's who she says she is!
Then I use my authority to issue the following order.
Soldiers, arrest and restrain Yuna Roma Seiran at once...
...for the crime of treason.
Under those orders, we are taking you into custody!
C-Cagalli!
Get Yuna to cough up the whereabouts of Djibril!
Unato's with the Cabinet I take it! Get him on the line!
All Orb Forces! As of this moment, I am taking command! Is that clear?!
Yes, ma'am!
All remaining Astray Teams, gather at Takamitsugata.
Deploy two teams of Murasames to give them air cover.
We must protect our land! Everyone, please give me strength!
- Lady Cagalli! - Lady Cagalli!
- It's Lady Cagalli! - She's back!
The Doze Team has been bombed! They're retreating!
We're being pushed back in coastal area twelve.
What in the world is going on? They were on the verge of collapse moments ago.
Yes.
Send them another two GOUF teams.
This is one nation we'd like to see fold, once and for all.
Right.
Minerva, at eight o'clock.
Distance twenty.
Anything on Djibril?
It seems they haven't found him yet.
They seem to be putting up quite a fight.
Shinn.
There's no need for all of us to sortie. I'll go out alone.
No! I'll go.
But Shinn...
Yeah. Don't go.
No, I'm going!
If anyone's gonna destroy Orb...
...it's gonna be me!
Destiny, standby for take off. Activation of all systems confirmed.
Commencing launch sequence. Opening hatch.
Catapult online. Course clear. Destiny, please take off!
Shinn Asuka. Destiny. Taking off!
What?! Shinn?!
Ah, but he...
He made the decision himself.
But still...
Shinn made that decision on his authority as a FAITH member...
...and I approved it on the same basis.
Please understand that, Captain.
What's that?!
Lady Cagalli! Please be careful! ZAFT reinforcements!
Why, that's...
Your appearance is similar to mine
It reverberates to my chest
As though it's quietly crying
I was being swayed, searching for the path I should be on.
I fought, believing it would lead to saving the world.
However, all I got were pleasant, encouraging words...
...and a much different truth hidden behind them.
Hoping for needed strength, what is Athrun and Kira's next move?
Next, on Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny...
..."Refrain".
Tear down that wall of confusion, Gundam!
