"Were you able to sleep?" "Forgive me for forcing you here." "I didn't want you to be killed." "Especially since I've finally found a celestial being." "Huh?" "!" "Long, long ago, a fisherman saw a heavenly being... bathing in the waters." "He took her robe and she couldn't return to the heavens." "He made her his wife." "Then..." "I know that story!" "The story of the celestial being is an old legend." "What does that have to do with me?" "I'm just an ordinary high school student." "You are that being's descendant." "The legend has been passed down in various places throughoutJapan." "Although some of the details are different... the legend is true." "In fact, the Mikage family has protected the blood line... for many generations." "Over the course of these many years... the human side has become dominant... and they are just like ordinary people." "But in some, the heavenly blood runs strong." " Particularly among women." " You're lying!" "What're you saying anyway?" "That's just a fairy tale!" "How stupid!" "After I sensed your power..." "I had my people check up on the Mikage family." "Sensed?" "I am also descended from a celestial being." "Whaa...!" "Are you serious?" "!" "This may not be proof, but..." "Huh?" "Simple telekinesis." "It took some practice in order to do this." "But you're different, aren't you?" "Your powers are even more amazing." "I'm floating!" "It's inside of me!" "I..." "I had no idea!" "No!" "I don't have any special powers!" "I don't believe you!" "I'm leaving!" "Good-bye!" "Thank you for putting me up!" "Over the years, the Mikage family has killed... several other female descendants just like you!" "Look, I won't say anything more about your family." "Just stay here." "I don't want you to die." "Aki?" "Mother..." "I'm so glad." "You're going to be all right." "You have many cuts and bruises... but nothing serious and no head injury." "Cuts and bruises?" "Why did I get hurt?" "I went to Grandfather's with Aya..." " Where's Aya?" "!" " Don't move." "You must rest." "Mother!" "Tell me what happened!" "Mother!" "Where's Aya?" "Where's Father?" "Mother!" "I can't believe it..." "Our family is descended from an angel?" "Even if... if that's true..." "Why must I be killed?" "And father, too?" "Hey!" "You finally noticed me." "What do you want?" "Nothing..." "Food!" "Home-cooked by me." "It'll energize you." "Can't think straight on an empty stomach." "Agonize after you eat." "Oh yeah... you had some stuff in your pockets." "The birthday present I got for Aki..." "It would've looked good on him  earrings with stones the color of blood." "Hello." "I see that you're up now." "You're probably just like the others." " When it comes to Aya and my father..." " No!" "I'll introduce you to someone, Aki." "He will find both your father and Aya." "His name is Toya." "Let him become your confidant." "Leave everything to him." "You must concentrate on getting well." "Yes, on the head." "Like this?" "Yes, that's fine." "What is this?" "!" "I stayed up all night to sew it." "I call it the "Submit to Celestial Being" headband." "Huh?" "What is that?" "It's a talisman." "I sewed on the angel's symbol." "From today, you are that girl's bodyguard." "Okay, okay!" "Get used it." "I put a spell on it... so that only a heavenly being's descendant can remove it." "I'm not Son Goku!" "Why must I wear this?" "!" "It's a symbol which I remember since birth." "I guessed it's from my angel side." "Hello, Earth to Suzumi!" "Are you listening?" "!" "This is ridiculous!" "Huh?" "What's that?" "Nyoi-bo." "Enjoying yourself?" "Quite." "Twins?" "Yes." "Aki is crucial to the Mikage family... and perhaps, even to the world." "The brother must live at all cost... the sister must be killed." "Don't hurt Aya." "Keep this from grandfather." "But there is much more to her powers... much more we don't know yet." "I want to find out more about them." "Your job is to keep an eye on Aya and protect her." "We are watching her moves right now." "You know you can't refuse me." "Aren't you descendants of this celestial being, too?" "Aya is... a direct descendant." "Yes, that's it." "I'm having some terrible nightmare." "When I return home... it'll be okay." "I know it." "Welcome back." "Anything come in?" "No." "Nothing yet." "Sir, Pete from Los Angeles is on his way here." "Understood." "You're a busy man." "Yes, so let's finish this up quickly." "In order to guard Aki and Aya..." "You'll find some useful items." "Use them as needed." "Sir..." "Chief, please pick up." "It's me." ""A" has just returned to the house." "I see." "No, there's no need for that now." "All right." "Keep watch." "Yes sir." "The car is parked in the basement in stall B13." "Next to mine." "You know what to do." "How nice... all these presents." "I want to open the blinds." "Put that thing away." "It feels like it's been ages." "Aki would... always be there with his headphones on." "I'd yell out to him but he wouldn't hear me." "I'd be in the kitchen and I'd hear..." "Father calling out that he was home." "I'm home..." "I told you to stay by her like a leech!" "Didya expect me to follow her into the bathroom?" "!" " Would you have minded?" " Well..." "Mrs. Q please hurry!" "You can count on me." "Slow down!" "I fell asleep." "I know..." "This hospital..." "That's where they are." "Aki and Mother." "You're done, sir." "That's all for today." "Didn't I have a dinner appointment with... the Finance Ministry people?" "I cancelled it." "Thanks." "I'll take it inside." "What's is it?" ""A" is on the move." "She left her house and she's on the main boulevard." "Car Three is on the street." "Shall we pursue her, too?" "No, return here." "Let Car Three take over." "Roger." "It's me." "Where are you now?" "I'm heading for the hospital." "Aya is also headed there." "Perfect timing for you." "But remember, she must not see Aki." "We'll switch rooms with the mother." "Remember that." "What did you tell the mother?" "Humph..." "Simple." "We told her the truth." ""A" has just entered the hospital." "We verify that." "I think we can restrain her here." "That isn't necessary." "Let her go to her mother's room." "Yes sir." "Wei!" "Yes?" "Make sure you get all this." "Yes sir." "Mother?" "Aya, is that you?" "Mother!" "Aya..." "How do you know she's not there?" "The hospital?" "Sensed it?" "Whaddya mean?" "Just let me talk to Mrs. Q I'll give her directions." "Mother, isn't it dark?" "Shall I turn on the light?" "There's no need for that." "Mother... is Aki okay?" "700 meters straight ahead!" "Please be careful!" "Mother..." "Red light!" "Go for it!" "Mother..." "I don't know how to put this." "We should leave this hospital now." "I had a strange vision." "Please believe me!" "I knew you were here because..." "Aya!" "Why did you kill your father?" "Why?" "Tell me." "It's the Aogiri car!" "Hurry!" "Mother!" "Why did you kill him?" "No!" "I didn't kill him!" "It wasn't me!" "Sorry about the mess." "Can you tell me which room Mikage's in?" "It's all right, Aya." "I'll make amends with you." "We'll die together in atonement." "Release me..." "Let me be free." "Hurry." "Release me." "I am... the real you." "Huh?" "!" "You!" "What?" "!" "Aya?" "Aya has gone to sleep." "I am the being who descended to earth." "My name is Ceres." "My orders are to capture you alive." "You're willing to fight me?" "Wait for me..." "Aya."
