"I'm so glad Suzumi is all right." "Somewhere in Japan at this very moment... others may fall victim to the Mikage's dirty plot." "I must stop them." "Look at this." "Huh?" "A mysterious bacteria discovered in Tochigi?" "Yeah..." "There's never been an outbreak of it in the prefecture... but a gamma vaccine is being distributed." "A gamma vaccine?" "Suzumi says we may want to look into this." "Suzumi said that?" "Do you think the Mikage are up to something?" "That may be a real possibility." "He-l-l-l-o-o-o!" "Is Yuhi Aogiri here?" "An elementary school kid?" "I found you!" "I'm so happy!" "You're so cool!" "Hey!" "W-What's going on?" "!" " Pedophile!" " Pedophile!" "It's a mistake!" "Is this the woman who was flying with you?" "Huh?" "This is...?" "When I came to Shinjuku a month ago..." "I just happened to take this photo." "You've got the wrong person!" "I don't know anyone like this woman." "You kissed her enough times!" "That's enough!" "This is Ceres?" "My other self?" "Boy, up close, you don't look like her at all!" "The woman in the picture is much more beautiful... and mature, and sexy." "And elegant..." "I mean, gee, there's no comparison." "Well, excuse me!" "It's not like I transform into her because I want to!" "Transform?" "Please..." "My name is Chidori Kuruma." "I need you to come meet my brother." "Please come with me to Tochigi." "Tochigi?" "Why, we're in Nakagawa." "It's referred to in the Hagoromo legend of Tochigi." "Tochigi also has a legend of the celestial robe?" "The village, Amago, still exists today." "I wonder if the celestial being of this legend returned to heaven?" "Huh?" "So your brother's condition became bad... after the outbreak of the bacteria that was mentioned in the news?" "Yes." "Most of the people, including myself, took the vaccine... without any side effects." "But a few started to get sick." "My brother was hospitalized three days ago." "It's a strange story." "Hey!" "Shota!" "It's me!" "Chidori!" "Shota!" "I brought the people in that picture." " See?" " Hello!" "Chidori, you really brought them!" "Aya!" "Come over here." "But can you really fly?" "Of course she can!" "Go!" "Fly!" "This is the seventh floor!" "You're a scary kid!" "Thought so... you can't fly." "Shota!" "Aya was just embarrased to fly 'cause she's wearing a miniskirt." "Never mind." "There's no way she can fly anyway." "She can!" "And if you try hard enough to walk... some day, you'll become a pilot and fly, too!" "The doctors said there's every possibility that you'll walk again!" "Why do you give up before you even try?" "!" "Are you going to give up your dream of becoming a pilot?" "I haven't been able to move my legs for two years." "There's no way I'll ever walk!" "You're just giving up!" "Aya, you'll show Shota how to fly, won't you?" "Really?" "You'll show me how to fly?" "Sure." "You shouldn't have made such a promise." "But... !" "Chidori is so determined for her brother." "Well, it's all up to you." "I'll check out this bacteria... and those sick from the vaccine." "Don't spill this." "Aya..." "Don't worry." "I'll always look after you." "Yuhi..." "Toya." "Dr. Kiritani, what's the matter?" "Dr. Kiritani?" "That white coat is starting to suit you..." "Doctor." "Is Kagami involved this time as well?" "I'm sorry Yuhi." "I'll be right back." "Are you here on orders from the Mikage?" "Tell me... what is this bacteria and this gamma vaccine?" "What are the Mikage up to?" "Why don't you answer?" "Say something!" "Toya!" "In the hallway... you saw Yuhi holding me." "Why do you act like you don't care?" "Why don't you yell at me for letting another man touch me?" "!" "Tell me!" "You never give me anything!" "I don't know what words you want from me." "The only thing I can give is what I know." "Is it wrong of me to be vague?" "Show me with your actions!" "Now!" "Then you won't waver!" "If you love me you should be able to take me in your arms!" "A man can take a woman even if he doesn't love her." "Don't give yourself so easily to such a creature." "Nothing is absolute." "How can you rationalize like that?" "!" "Dr. Kiritani." "Please come to Internal Medicine Ward 3 immediately." "What's taking Aya so long?" "She's only been gone 20 minutes." "I mean, you really need at least an hour... for lovemaking." "What lovemaking?" "!" "Forget I said that." "I shouldn't have let her go." "Yuhi!" "I love you, Yuhi!" "Hey you..." "Seeing you holding Aya made me so jealous!" "It really stirred my maternal instincts!" "Sorry." "When you've grown up a little more," "I'll give you some consideration." "How rude!" "I AM grown up." "See?" "I have breasts already." "What are you doing you pedophile?" "!" "Hello Aya!" "Thank you for coming to see Shota." "And making such a wonderful feast." "Boy!" "This is a super feast!" "Are you a professional chef?" "Nah..." "It's just a hobby right now." "But after high school, I plan to apprentice somewhere." "It's my dream to someday run a restaurant with the girl I love." "Funny, huh?" "Yuhi..." "I wish I knew how to respond." "They're our parents." "Two years ago, a bus skidded in the rain." "Shota was paralyzed in that accident." "My parents tried to save us." "They both broke their necks and died instantly." "See?" "I still have a scar from that accident." "What's the matter?" "My father also died trying to save me." "Really?" "We've got something in common, don't we?" "Well, I'm going to sleep with Yuhi." "Good night!" "Not on your life, you little brat!" "Aki, can you remember anything?" "It's difficult..." "How do you feel?" "So-so." "How's Grandfather?" "He's not doing very well." "Please go and pay him a visit soon." "How do you feel?" "I'm okay." "I just feel a little pain." "You like the sky?" "I was just thinking." "On the other side of that sky... where Mommy and Daddy are..." "If I could fly, I would be able to go there." "'Cuz I'm lonely." "We are all alone." "When we're born and when we die, we're alone." "But I still have my sister." "And Grandpa and Grandma." "And all my friends." "Doctor, don't you have someone too?" "No, I don't." "What about your parents?" "I don't have any." "Then you've been alone all this time?" "Aren't you sad?" "I'd hate that." "I'd be so scared." "Yes, I'm scared too." "All the time." "But I've never been lonely because I've never had anything precious." "I never had anything to lose." "But I finally found something dear to me." "That's great." "Aren't you happy?" "It's made me suffer even more." "It's made everything I say and do... seem even more hypocritical." "If I get near her, I'll only hurt her." "But I can't forget about her." "Can't you end the suffering?" "Can't you get away from it?" "I don't want to run away from what I feel." "For her sake too, I'll find myself someday." "This is the ultimate pain of happiness." "Toya." "Toya." "These are the seven who've been hospitalized... as emergency cases?" "Now if only we knew whether these seven... have ancestors from Hamagun or Shioyagun... the sites of the Hagoromo legends." "Impossible." "It's too long ago." "The descendants are scattered all over the country." "How did the Mikage find them?" "This is the room." "Kyoko Sasamine." "Whoa...!" "Hey!" "Mrs. Q. Get a doctor quickly!" "All right!" "Ceres!" "No, if I let you transform now... you'll try to kill Toya like that last time." "And Toya will fight you, too." "I don't want to fight Toya!" "Don't transform!" "B-But..." "I can't run away." "I called Aya, not you." "Aren't you going to capture me?" "Weren't those your orders?" "And you, aren't you going to kill me?" "I'm your enemy." "Why didn't you make love to Aya yesterday?" "Aren't men like that?" "I couldn't do such an irresponsible thing." "What are you anyway?" "I can't understand anymore." "You're a strange man." "I want to know the same thing." "I don't care about being all alone." "But I want to know who I am." "Do you really think the Mikage will help you?" "If you love Aya, leave the Mikage." "If I were just an ordinary man..." "I could accept Aya's love." "But..." "There's one thing I can't get out of my thoughts." "I feel as though I've known you before." "Somewhere in my memory..." "or Aya's." "Please come immediately!" "The patient in Special Care...!" "What about the other celestial powers?" "Disappeared." "Four of them..." "Toya..." "If you want to choose Aya... take off that necklace and wear this instead." "This is a choker that Aya really loves." "Why?" "It's not me." "Aya doesn't care who or what you are." "As for Aya..." "I'm going to enjoy seeing how you and Yuhi fight over her." "I feel like throwing up!" "The emergency patients are dropping one after the other." "Damn Mikage!" "They're so rotten!" "I'll bet they're all reacting to that medicine." "Only three left..." "Kumi Akiyama, Hirokazu Yoshizuka, Shota Kuruma." "Yuhi!" "What're you doing?" "Did you just jump on Yuhi's stomach with all your strength?" "Yes!" "I brought you a present!" "Okonomiyaki!" "Oh yeah..." "I just saw Aya in the corridor." "She's changed, just like in the picture I took." "She was with a super-handsome doctor, so I didn't bother her." "What this about Ceres and Toya?" "!" "Nothing happened." "Aya!" "Now then, let's go fly." "With that boy." "Chidori, will I be okay?" "You'll be just fine!" "Hang on tight so you won't fall." "Wow!" "She's totally defying gravity!" "But she looks so beautiful!" "I've never seen it in except in picture books." "I bet that's what a real celestial being looks like." "Wow!" "Wow!" "I'm flying!" "I'm really flying!" "Not afraid?" "Just a little." "Look!" "The hospital's so small!" "This is just like the story Grandpa once told me... about the Celestial Maiden." "Celestial Maiden?" "She took back her celestial robe and returned home." "Leaving everyone behind." "I wonder if she loved the sky more than her family?" "Because it's so big and huge, long ago people loved the sky." "That's what daddy said." "Humans are destined to live on the ground." "That's why they yearn for something they can never have." "But I want to fly." "And I want to walk on the earth." "And I really want to become a pilot." "Shota!" "Shota!" "I believe you're troubled because she happens to be your sister." "Let go!"
