It is said that every several hundred years,
the goddess Athena is reincarnated.
And now a new Athena has been born into this world,
but, this time, under a dark prophecy
that she will lead mankind to ruin.
The warriors who protected the goddess Athena
were known as Knights.
Today, a new generation of Knights
control the fate of the world.
They are called the Knights of the Zodiac.
Previously on Saint Seiya...
I'm a Silver Knight.
You're nothing but a Bronze Knight.
You don't stand a chance.
Mavrou Trippa!
Impossible.
Pegasus Rolling Crush!
What happened to Long, Magnus, and Shaun? Where are they?
The other Bronze Knights are still alive for now.
Then, I have to go and find them!
What are you doing, Marin?
Seiya, what is a Knight's purpose?
There's no time for your lessons.
I have to go find them and the Gold--
What is a Knight's purpose?
To protect Athena.
Then, do you understand why I sent you to the tournament?
Because Sienna is Athena.
So now you know the answer.
Go and save her.
But I promised her I would bring her back the Gold Armor.
The Gold Armor is not as important as Sienna's life.
I promised her.
If Sanctuary has decided
to send Silver Knights after you,
that means they'll come after Sienna.
They are going to kill her,
and there is no one to protect her.
Now go save her.
That is the destiny of the Pegasus Knight.
But I promised...
Seiya, the Knights of Sanctuary
believe that, in times of chaos and great evil,
the goddess Athena reincarnates to save the world.
But, this time, when Sienna was born,
she was born with a prophecy,
a warning that Athena would fail
and the dark forces of Poseidon and Hades
would reign victorious,
wiping the human race from existence.
The Knights of Sanctuary
struggled to accept the prophecy.
Their sole reason for existence was to protect Athena,
but, if Athena's return meant the end of humanity,
then why should they protect her?
The conflict divided the Knights into two groups,
those who accepted the dark prophecy
and felt they had to kill Athena,
and those who believed the prophecy was false
and trusted in Athena.
The Knights trying to disprove the prophecy and protect Athena
called themselves the "Right Ones."
Seiya, I believe in Athena.
Aiolos did what he could to protect her.
Now it's up to you to do the same.
That's why you must go to her and protect her.
She cannot do this alone.
You asked me once what I saw in you,
why I trained you.
This is why.
Now go.
Don't waste your time here.
Fulfill your duty as a Knight.
Go to Athena, and protect her.
Wait. What's going to happen to you?
I can handle things here, but I need you to protect Athena.
Now hurry up, and go!
Sienna, I'm on my way.
I'm going to find you and find my friends.
Morris, must you always make such a grand entrance?
You know it, Asterion.
So, Marin, what happened to Misty?
We felt his Cosmo burn out and disappear.
Misty?
What the hell happened here, Marin?
What is this?
These aren't the Bronze Knights.
Sanctuary gave us orders, and we failed.
Why aren't you telling us anything, Marin?
You need to explain.
As if you could stop me.
You can't hide what you've done, Marin!
You're responsible for all of this, you and Seiya.
I can read your thoughts like an open book.
Damn it! We were tricked.
We killed and buried the wrong guys!
So you've mastered the technique of reading a lady's mind.
You witch.
There's no escape for a traitor like you.
It's over, and you know it.
Time for you to pay for your crimes against Sanctuary,
and, man, do I love making people pay.
She didn't leap! She's right behind you!
Huh?
Damn, you're quick!
Ryu-Sei-Ken!
It's another trick!
Huh?
You almost had me that time.
But I'm better.
It doesn't matter how many illusions you use, Marin.
I see your every thought.
I guess the rumors are true.
You two aren't very tough at all.
How dare you?
You know the penalty for disobedience
to the Grand Master of Sanctuary is death.
Who's the tough one now, Marin?
You don't have a problem with me killing her, do you?
- Look out! - Huh?
- Agh!
You witch!
Morris, move!
Hah! I told you I could see your thoughts!
Don't forget about me!
You don't stand a chance
against two Silver Knights.
As if that would work.
I almost feel sorry for you.
How about this?
Whale-Spout Bomber!
Heh. This is it, Marin.
End of the line.
- Wait! - What?
Don't kill her yet.
Why not? She deserves it.
This little cat humiliated me!
Calm down, Morris.
We'll use her as bait.
Bait?
Seiya should still be somewhere around here.
Once he realizes Marin's in danger,
he won't be able to stay away for long.
Something doesn't feel right.
Marin!
If Sanctuary has decided
to send Silver Knights after you,
that means they'll come after Sienna.
They are going to kill her,
and there is no one to protect her.
Now go.
Don't waste your time here.
Fulfill your duty as a Knight.
Go to Athena, and protect her.
Sorry, Marin, but I can't leave you behind.
Marin!
Seiya. You came back.
Looks like I was right.
Where do you think you're going?
Get out of my way.
You're not going to stop me this time, Asterion.
Hmph. Whatever you want, Morris.
Come on, Seiya. If you want to save Marin,
you'll have to go through me.
But you'd better hurry.
Looks like she doesn't have much time left.
You're a fighter. There's no denying that,
even when you're on the losing side.
Look who's talking.
So you're a part of the Right Ones, huh?
If you have to call yourself "right," are you, really?
You betrayed Athena and everything she stands for!
Sure, sure, whatever.
We've heard all about you, the hotshot Bronze Knight
and how you lost your sister when you were little.
But did you know that Marin lost her brother?
Funny coincidence, huh?
What does that mean?
Could Marin...
Seiya!
Hey! What are you gonna do with my sister?
Give her back!
Patricia!
You can ask Marin all about it
when you're reunited with her in the afterlife!
Whale-Spout Bomber!
You're so surprised,
you couldn't even defend yourself from my attacks!
But there's no way she could be my sister.
Come on, Pegasus Seiya.
Is that all you've got?
I'll make you shut your mouth!
You're way out of your league, little Bronze Knight.
How much longer is this going to take?
Finish him.
Relax. Let me have a little fun now and then.
Marin!
Still won't stay down, Seiya?
Asterion is right.
This has gone on long enough. Time to end this.
Be careful, Morris!
He's going to attack!
So am I!
Whale-Spout Bomber!
Sorry, Seiya. It's all over!
Huh?
What the-- You sprouted wings?
Seiya, you finally let your Pegasus go.
Aah! Damn it!
This is for hurting Marin!
Morris, Seiya's next attack is the Pegasus--
Pegasus Ryu-Sei-Ken!
Wh-What?
I'm not finished with you yet, Morris.
And this is for messing with me!
Pegasus Rolling Crush!
Hold on, Marin! I'm coming!
I teach...
but you never listen.
It's not over yet.
You're confident, aren't you?
You think you can best me?
Then, prove it.
I don't have time for you!
- Out of my way!
She's gonna drown! Move!
Not until you take me down.
Pegasus Ryu-Sei-Ken!
Didn't see that coming, did you?
Did you enjoy my illusion?
- I'm all but untouchable.
What's going on?
Now let's see how you handle my attack.
Behold the awesome power of the Silver Hound Knight!
Pegasus Ryu-Sei-Ken!
Million Phantom Attack!
My Million Phantom Attack is double the speed of Ryu-Sei-Ken.
You're too slow and too predictable,
and now you've lost.
Marin.
I've wasted enough time on you.
There are still three more Bronze Knights out there
for me to put down.
Farewell, Seiya.
What?
Impossible.
Marin? But you were--
How did you--
You were so wrapped up in your own self, Asterion...
you didn't even realize.
Seiya's attack wasn't meant for you.
I read his mind, but I didn't see his true target.
Clever.
But it was all in vain.
I also saw one more thing.
He wonders if you're his sister.
Let's find out, shall we?
Why can't I read your mind?
Your mind is completely blank.
That's impossible!
No one can hide their thoughts from me.
I can't read your mind.
I'm fighting blind!
I don't understand.
How are you doing this?
No one's ever been able to shut me out!
My mind is iron.
Because I've thrown away my past,
there's nothing left for you to read.
You must be joking.
That's just not possible!
How about this?
Million Phantom Attack!
It's over, Asterion!
What? No!
Eagle Claw Flash!
Marin, you must be mad.
Are you really going to betray Sanctuary?
Marin, can it be true?
Are you Patricia?
Are you my sister?
Our destinies have to carry us in different directions for now.
Stay safe, Seiya.
Protect Athena.
Our paths will cross again soon.
