"In the year 2133 the world was thrust into an era of devastation and chaos." "More than half of the Earth's population was killed off by nonnuclear global war." "It was only a matter of time before the planet itself would become utterly uninhabitable and all life there would cease to exist." "Humans searched for a last seed of hope." "they created one:" "Olympus." "those injured in the war were reconditioned as human cyborgs." "International disputes were buffered by a breed of genetically engineered... who were designed never to feel anger or hatred." "listen up." "We got a heavily armed group holed up in an abandoned church with top-ranking EU officials as hostages." "Don't know who they are or what they want." "so you know the drill." "You could be looking at combat cyborgs." "We move in at 2245 sharp." "Synchronize your watches to 2230 on my mark." "one now." "look at that." "just like I do." "The sound of it will get your ass shot." "Deunan." "He's your partner." "I'll be." "You two are made for each other." "Approaching landing zone." "Drop point confirmed." "deploy." "Let's go!" "We don't have much time!" "I'm outside the corridor and I'm going in." "Launch assault in 30 seconds." "stand by." "Deunan." "prepare to move in." "On my count." "one." "Fire!" "Fire!" "Cover me." "Fire!" "Secure the hostages." "You all right?" "Watch the hostage." "Got it." "They're all cyborgs." "What the hell's going on?" "Let's ask them." "I think they're in the mood to talk now." "Who are you?" "What do you want?" "Do you hear me?" "Answer me." "All will be one." "We will all be one." "I am Halcon." "He's gonna blow." "Move it." "are you all right?" "Briareos?" "Briareos!" "stop." "Let go." "goddamn it!" "Briareos." "Briareos!" "all units." "We have a disturbance reported in Sector B-47 involving a construction Landmate." "Request ES.W.A.T. dispatch." "proceed to WASP hangar in Delta Formation at once." "disturbance in Sector B-47." "Request ES.W.A.T. dispatch." "report to the WASP hangar in Delta Formation at once." "Captain." "Deunan?" "I heard the call." "I'm near B-47 right now." "Aren't you supposed to be off-duty today?" "things change." "We're on our way." "Deunan." "You hear me?" "Run!" "Run!" "What's happening?" "He got fired." "he grabbed a Landmate." "He's going to turn the place" "God." "Get up." "Where's the kill switch?" "On his back." "Unit 1 ready." "Don't treat me like a fool!" "Goddamn you!" "You're late." "Got it." "I saw it." "Damn it!" "Get off of me!" "Damn it!" "Get off!" "Shit!" "Get off!" "You little bitch!" "Get off!" "What are you doing?" "Let me out of here." "You bitch!" "Looks like we missed the party." "I told you to play it cool." "Where is he?" "on the ground." "Who's the new guy?" "right." "I have to introduce you." "Lance." "Today is my day off." "Meet Tereus." "Your new partner." "Nike?" "Deunan." "Did you forget that my partner is in the hospital?" "believe it." "Tereus is the only one whose fighting potential compares to Briareos." "That's not what I'm talking about and you know it." "Why does your new partner look remarkably similar to Briareos before he became a cyborg?" "Isn't that what you want to know?" "Deunan." "just like its predecessor." "We continue to create bioroids from the very same DNA as you humans genetically deleting negative emotions." "emissaries... ministers of political affairs." "Bioroids must act as a regulating force within society." "So we decided to produce bioroids with high combat capabilities to further uphold public order." "Tereus is serving as our prototype." "He fights to preserve law and order." "anger and hatred will never influence his decision to fight." "The majority of his genetic code was taken from Briareos." "Why did you choose Briareos?" "After analyzing combat data from all soldiers in ES.W.A.T we found him to be by far the most qualified of all candidates." "And then there is his Hecatonchire-class body." "Briareos is the only person who has been able to adapt to it." "His physical and mental strength is truly remarkable." "You were his former partner." "That's why we need you to assess Tereus' capabilities." "I won't do it." "I'm not asking." "you're back." "I just got back from the World Trade Expo." "I heard about Briareos." "it's Lance." "Briareos is waking up." "I'll be right there." "As the prime minister of Olympus I strongly advocate a global security network." "This would entail bringing all the world's surveillance as well as communication satellites under the control of Olympus." "This will enhance our.... what--?" "What are those things?" "Deunan?" "yeah." "check it out." "It's called a Connexus." "It's the most advanced personal multimedia terminal ever made." "Makes life so much easier." "Try it on." "Everybody's got one." "It's an amazing piece of technology." "And anyone can use it just by accessing the free open-source codes." "That's the best thing about it." "go ahead and open that message on the right." "What is it?" "A birthday party?" "okay?" "So how old are you gonna be?" "Just because I'm a bioroid doesn't mean that I'll tell you my age." "Briareos." "all right?" "they just put him back together." "We should be able to be release him in just over a week." "Are you serious?" "He's a lucky man." "Dr. Kestner is the chief professor at the academy not to mention the foremost expert on cyborg medical science." "he's even my doctor." "I'm afraid." "I'll leave you all to your visit." "what's new?" "It's like we thought it was." "The investigation at the church revealed all the terrorists were cyborgs." "We've taken another look at the five most recent terror incidents." "Four were carried out entirely by cyborgs." "Cyborg terrorists?" "What are they after?" "That's what I'd like to know." "But we do have a couple of leads to go on." "all of them in the surrounding areas." "Pattern looks like a puppet-master program from the war." "They're being brainwashed." "It's a possibility." "The problem is that most cyborgs out there... unlike us." "If someone is manipulating civilian cyborgs for terrorist acts" "Things are gonna get a lot hotter on our end." "we have no idea who we're dealing with or what they want." "we need you." "What are you talking about?" "I can't go on active duty like this." "When can all these wires come off?" "Don't pull." "You're not my doctor." "Come on." "Let go of that." "Here we go again." "I fixed it for you." "This thing's tougher than I am." "right?" "Yeah." "Before you came." "I don't care what they say." "no matter what happens." "get back!" "talk to me." "Are you all right?" "Briareos." "Am I--?" "Am I alive?" "you're alive." "Thank you." "even if the world comes to an end." "I know you will." "I am Yoshino from Poseidon." "the chief of staff of Olympus." "Prime Minister Athena has been expecting you." "many of the cyborgs involved in the terrorist incidents were equipped with components made by Poseidon." "I would like to know..." "Emissary Yoshino?" "We have tracked down the cyborg parts in question... and shut it down immediately." "Other departments have enacted countermeasures as well." "However it would be regrettable to draw connections between these terrorists and Poseidon." "So then you're saying Poseidon had nothing to do with the latest terrorist attacks?" "you're well aware that Poseidon is the largest industrial conglomerate in the world." "Our profits come from trade with other countries." "Siding with terrorists would give no financial benefits whatsoever." "other countries would follow your lead." "the negative impact would not be in our best interest." "but we have issued the same message to all the businesses that may have been involved." "We cannot afford to give Poseidon special consideration." "One of the topics at the peace conference is your desire to enhance surveillance by controlling international satellite systems is it not?" "This hyper-sheath contains the master control program to our satellite network." "Consider it a gift." "are we?" "Our contribution to global welfare." "Not something I'd expect to hear from a business that makes tools for war." "Olympus is no stranger to military prowess." "You know that you can't protect the world without force." "We'll review our options and speak with you at another time." "We will look forward to a favorable reply." "Great." "Keep them coming." "Hitomi." "Happy birthday." "It was so sweet of you all to come tonight." "I hope all of you have a great time." "You look great." "Happy birthday." "Yoshitsune." "Looks like you've got a surprise guest hiding over there." "get over here." "Come on." "take a look at Deunan." "You clean up nice." "Well.... enough already." "Here you go." "Thank you." "Happy birthday." "Thank you." "Have a good time." "We have good things in store for you tonight too." "Just look over there." "What?" "Briareos." "Does this mean you're okay?" "Not quite." "Something's wrong with my eyescope." "I'm seeing a Deunan that I've never seen before." "Tonight we're also celebrating Briareos' full recovery." "I had no idea." "Hitomi." "How lovely." "Thank you so much." "have you?" "meet Tereus." "Briareos at last." "It's nice to meet you." "Is this supposed to be a costume party?" "This guy's wearing a mask with my old face." "it wasn't exactly my own choice." "Sounds exactly like me too." "So I have my old partner back now?" "I meant to talk to you about that." "Afraid I need you to stick with Tereus a little longer." "I'll team up with Aeacus for a while." "What do you mean?" "I saw your combat data with him." "Not bad." "is this some kind of joke?" "Because I'm not laughing." "Deunan." "They fixed me twice." "Who are you gonna partner with..." "...if they can't do it a third time?" "Then I won't partner with anyone." "Deunan." "Seems Briareos was pretty worried about you." "Do I look like I care?" "anyway?" "Another one." "Better make that a coffee." "Espresso." "With a shot of liqueur." "I know you're not too fond of me but I gotta admit that I'm really glad they chose you as my partner." "All I ask is that you stick with me a little longer." "What's the matter?" "Did Briareos tell you how I like to drink it?" "No." "Go home." "I'll drop you off." "Leave me alone." "I get confused." "I get confused when I'm with you." "No problem." "right?" "That's mythology but now it's a system that can control multiple external networks." "the only man they could find who was able to adapt to the H-class machine body." "yeah." "Lucky me." "being a cyborg and all?" "It has its drawbacks." "pretty boy?" "I mean." "Not too many girls out there who'll stay with you once you're more of a machine than a man." "It hasn't crossed my mind." "pal." "What about you?" "You got a girl?" "She making you wear jewelry?" "you mean this." "it's just my Connexus." "My daughter gave it to me." "She's got one to match it." "you're being a cyborg isn't enough metal on you already?" "Once you start you can't stop." "don't break the merchandise." "Leaders from all over the world are arriving now amid both fanfare and heavy security." "sir." "Continuing security checks." "time to go." "Right." "What's wrong?" "I" "Sorry." "Don't worry about it." "We're partners." "no matter what." "I guess I can count on you." "You didn't know that?" "This worldwide peace summit and conference of dignitaries may very well forge our future." "we will now open discussions to the floor." "Prime Minister Athena is in." "We are green." "Okay." "look alive." "Here we go." "Looks like it's starting." "All right." "Let's hope nothing happens." "partner." "ES.W.A.T. will handle it." "isn't it?" "And by merging each country's satellite systems we will create a unified global communications network." "we believe this will quell conflicts and terrorist attacks before they ever happen helping ensure peace for future generations." "this was simply an overview of the proposed global security network." "I urge you all to place your countries' satellites under Olympus' control." "The recent incident that occurred in our country was handled by the Olympus ES.W.A.T. in a very expeditious manner." "would be a phenomenal" "My country already has the means to protect itself from terrorism without having to rely on Olympus' support." "Or perhaps your country might have things you don't want anyone else to see." "What do you mean?" "Would you care to elaborate on that?" "Sources indicate that your country supports several regional conflicts" "That's ridiculous!" "How dare you make such an accusation." "Enough of this." "Why should Olympus be in control of the satellite systems?" "How do we know bioroids can be trusted?" "I agree." "This discussion has nothing to do with race." "I'm detecting an unidentified data frequency." "From where?" "Multiple signals." "They're everywhere." "be on the alert." "prepare to move out." "Code 3." "Aeacus." "Let's move." "buddy." "I'll be right behind you." "You all right?" "I'll be okay." "Okay." "you can go." "Next." "Hey." "Stop." "Stop." "I said stop!" "It's not stopping." "We're gonna have to take him out." "Fire." "Fire." "Disturbance reported at Gate E-12." "Aeacus." "I'm heading out." "A-2." "Unauthorized vehicles have breached the outer perimeter." "This is Gate F-7." "Our position is also being overrun." "Copy that." "Keep the premises secure at all cost." "Order the Landmates to start mobilizing now." "I need you to back up the police in the area." "Keep the assailants away from the conference hall." "sir." "areas around the conference hall are under attack." "Suspend proceedings and ensure your safety." "Nonsense." "We will continue." "Unauthorized Landmate." "Fire." "It's a construction Landmate." "It's not a cyborg." "What's going on here?" "Deunan." "You okay?" "Yeah." "What the hell is going on here?" "Those aren't cyborgs." "They're humans." "You still here?" "sounds like all hell's breaking loose." "Do you need something?" "All will be one." "We will all be one." "I am Halcon." "Aeacus?" "What was that?" "Is it a terrorist?" "We must get out of here." "It's an explosion." "Look!" "We stop this meeting immediately." "We should evacuate." "please." "There is no need to panic." "This conference hall is heavily fortified." "please return to your seats." "Let us resume the discussion." "Aeacus." "What's wrong?" "Answer me." "Stop it!" "Everyone get back!" "Get out!" "Let's get out of here." "Take a good look!" "This is the reality of the world we now live in." "The time to decide on this proposal is now." "Or do you want to create more unnecessary casualties?" "Stop!" "Aeacus!" "Briareos!" "All will be one." "Do you understand?" "Stop it!" "Damn it!" "Stop it." "Aeacus!" "no!" "why?" "Briareos." "I...." "Briareos!" "It's a robot!" "The frequency's coming from the doves." "Looks like the Tartaros Conference Hall is stabilized and under control." "Signal's gone." "Hey." "What's happening to them?" "The attackers at each of the gates have been suppressed." "Several casualties." "The unidentified data frequency seems to have vanished." "The Lord has called our brother Aeacus home." "Let us pray for his soul." "dust to dust." "May the Lord lead him unto heaven and grant him eternal rest." "Am I stable?" "I saw his face melt away as he attacked me." "What if I'm losing my sanity too?" "You worry too much." "Everyone knows that you did what you had to do." "Salute." "What are you looking for?" "Your flesh has melded with the matrix of the Hecatonchire system so perfectly you're practically a work of art." "no cyborg is safe from this chaos." "I know what happened to Aeacus came as a terrible shock but something like that could never happen to you." "I see." "doc." "Briareos." "Do you like this city?" "Do you believe Olympus truly is a utopia that's worthy of risking your life?" "I don't know." "But what I do know is that as long as there's someone in this city I care about  I intend to protect it." "huh?" "I have found those ideals led only to human anguish." "Wouldn't you agree?" "I don't." "Not always." "but it does." "Although the peace conference was temporarily disrupted by an organized attack discussions ended successfully with regard to its primary topic allowing world leaders to...." "As a result of our debate at the Olympus Assembly we will resume normal trade with Poseidon with one notable exception." "Certain cyborg parts." "for your consideration." "I'll let our headquarters know immediately." "We've received the latest report on the attack at Tartaros Conference Hall." "There's something that concerns me." "What is it?" "I am Halcon." "Impossible." "Halcon is nothing more than a memory." "There's no way they could be involved." "ID verified." "Thank you." "Can I ask you to spar with me?" "Why not ask Deunan?" "I'd prefer to spar with you." "kid." "That was a good kick." "Are you content now?" "Nobody can compete with Briareos." "That bioroid did fairly well." "We've determined the unidentified data frequency detected during the incident was being transmitted by the robotic doves." "We believe they were responsible." "triggering the uprising." "What we don't know is how regular non-cyborg humans were involved in the attack as well." "But the investigation is still under way and we should know more soon." "evidence suggests cyborg terrorists were behind this attack." "Whether or not Aeacus was collaborating with the terrorists remains to be seen." "we can't ignore the possibility that ES.W.A.T.'s virus protection programs for cyborgs may have been compromised." "we will suspend participation of cyborg troops." "What?" "This is bullshit." "Non-cyborgs were involved as well." "You treat us like criminals for this." "we have no choice." "That is all." "Dismissed." "forget this." "I'm out of here." "I don't need this crap." "I'm with you." "Yoshitsune." "Yeah?" "Would you run some tests on this?" "Some sort of biochip?" "Where did you get this from?" "will you?" "No problem." "I'll check it out." "Thanks a lot." "Tereus." "Let's have a drink." "I'm busy." "The backup always follows the point man." "You heard the lady." "Centralized management of each country's satellites along with the proposed system of information sharing could be a first step towards fulfilling the wishes of those who long for peace in our postwar society." "So where to?" "Feel like a pub or sports bar?" "Sports bar." "Sports bar." "Pub." "That's what I meant to" "Pub." "That's what I meant to" "We go now live to a message from Prime Minister Athena." "we will demonstrate what can happen when the satellites of 32 nations come together to form a willing alliance." "According to Greek mythology the olive tree is a symbol of peace and prosperity." "It is my belief that mankind's desire for peace will soon unite our world." "It's like a carnival." "Yeah." "Looks like fun." "Look out!" "Briareos!" "Nobody's driving it." "The information terminal?" "Briareos!" "Stop it." "What's gotten into you?" "What's wrong with you?" "Look out!" "Tereus!" "What's happening to you?" "stop it." "Briareos!" "What are you doing?" "Briareos!" "Error in the satellite monitoring system!" "Electrical supply system malfunction!" "We're being hacked into from the outside!" "Code yellow!" "just to be safe." "Copy that." "Switching to B." "The unidentified data frequency wasn't detected in that area." "So they ruled that out as the cause." "I think they wanna conduct drug tests and a psych exam on him." "So where is he now?" "in the isolation ward." "Did you see him?" "so no." "I see." "I can do that." "Of course." "I'll go on my rounds and be right back." "Turn around." "Okay." "Thanks." "This birthmark." "Briareos had the same one." "What's happening to Briareos?" "That biochip you wanted me to check out?" "Part of a Connexus." "I put a Connexus on this lab rat." "Watch what happens when I transmit the same frequency from one of the robotic doves to this rat." "It's like he has no control." "the Connexus emits a signal that stimulates nerve tissue." "it can potentially be used to manipulate both humans and cyborgs at will." "That would explain why non-cyborgs were involved in the attack." "Exactly." "then." "Just being used like the people in the riots were." "This isn't simple cyborg terrorism." "This is something much bigger." "Then the terrorist attack on Tartaros was just some kind of test." "but we gotta get these things off the street." "Is it true?" "Did I really attack Deunan?" "What's happening to me?" "!" "What?" "!" "and that's why she's worried." "She wants to see you." "No." "Not now." "Maybe there's something I can do." "Richard Kestner." "He's been with the Olympus Science Academy since 2135 but he worked for Poseidon before that." "Poseidon?" "Keep going." "What else does it say?" "Let me try to access Olympus' host computer." "Chief Technician of New Technology Elizabeth Xander." "Halcon Laboratory." "Halcon?" "I'll look it up." "Everything has been erased." "Is Kestner behind this?" "Kestner never would have been able to remove that amount of data from a global network on his own." "Someone else must be behind this." "It must be Poseidon." "cover your ears." "no!" "Stop it." "don't do this!" "You could get" "Over here!" "Hey!" "Where do you think you're going?" "We have to evacuate the hospital." "I have to find someone." "Go." "You can't." "We have to leave." "Aren't you listening to me?" "Leave me alone." "Hang on." "citizens:" "The Connexus is now considered to be a harmful product." "If you are a Connexus user...." "What are they talking about?" "I can't live without this thing." "the Connexus is considered to be a harmful product." "We'll be lucky if even 10 percent of the population turn them in." "I want enforcement measures taken as early as tomorrow." "Of course." "Nike." "What is it?" "Briareos has escaped from the hospital." "He's taken Vice Minister Hitomi hostage." "You're all aware of Briareos' capabilities." "Don't you ever let your guard down." "move out." "Deunan Knute." "I want you to withdraw from this assignment." "What are you talking about?" "That's a direct order." "You understand me?" "Remain here on standby." "Got it?" "Pull your vehicle to the side of the road immediately." "Surrender or we will take hostile action." "What do we do?" "Do what they want." "stop your vehicle immediately." "Thanks for the lift." "Do you want a gun?" "Don't need one." "We've taken the hostage into protective custody." "The fugitive's whereabouts are still unknown." "So where is he?" "Where did he go?" "Why are you asking me?" "How would I know?" "I will simply ask myself." "Then I'll know where to go." "It looks like the fugitive took Harbor Way Number 4 and exited somewhere near Cygnus." "We're currently inspecting all vehicles within a 1-kilometer radius of the area." "You should do some decorating." "I can tell you live alone." "no." "I am never exactly alone." "What have you done to my body?" "It's impossible to control your body using data frequencies from the outside." "your little incident gave me the perfect opportunity to add a rather special feature to that Hecatonchire body of yours." "Nanomachines." "You did what?" "and now they feed off of you." "really activated the instant that your adrenaline levels rise just beyond a certain point." "You do realize that the hacking incident you caused was all part of the plan." "I found it would be very difficult to infiltrate the main control room of the satellite command center." "So I performed a little trick on their backup module." "All that was needed then was to crash the main system." "And you did that wonderfully." "Why are you doing this?" "Do you know why this world can never exist without bloodshed?" "of course." "different minds." "That is the essence of all conflict." "united consciousness...." "You're the one." "You're the one behind the attacks." "No." "I have comrades all over the world." "Fix what you've done to me!" "It's too late for that." "it's time." "System error." "We've lost control of the satellites." "All links to the satellites are cut off." "What the hell is going on?" "Backup system's out too." "Try it again." "What are you trying to do?" "Assimilation and natural selection." "Those that cannot be integrated will be eliminated." "Thanks to the Connexus and the global satellite network mankind will be united once and for all." "Imagine a world without misunderstanding or discrimination." "The elimination of all human conflict and the banishment of war." "My vision and Halcon's ideals will finally become our reality and truth." "Halcon." "The global security network is down." "we've lost control of the satellites." "They waited for the satellites to unite before hijacking them." "Even the attack on the peace summit must have been thoroughly designed." "if they use" "If they transmit that signal to Connexus via satellites.... issue an alert to the alliance nations." "At once." "Don't worry." "in but a moment you will understand." "our bodies are just vessels." "We must set ourselves free." "Kestner." "Don't do it!" "We've got him!" "He's here!" "Stay where you are." "Don't move!" "Freeze!" "Put your hands up!" "Now!" "We've found the fugitive cyborg." "There's a man down." "Send an ambulance." "Hold it." "Freeze!" "he jumped." "He went down." "Suspect jumped out of the window." "Find him!" "We will continue pursuit." "Briareos is still on the run." "He's considered armed and dangerous." "If he resists you're authorized to use lethal force." "Briareos is still on the run." "even if the world comes to an end." "aren't you?" "use these." "What are they?" "Parasite antitoxins." "They were developed during the war as a countermeasure against cyber-terrorism." "It's like shock treatment for cyborgs." "It should help him regain consciousness." "shoot this into his nervous system... if you can get it there." "So this can save him?" "but it's better than nothing." "Thanks for doing this." "I owe you one." "Good luck." "Briareos." "I knew you'd come here." "don't you?" "Briareos." "Don't come any closer." "I can't control myself." "Briareos!" "Who are you?" "Why is there another one of me?" "Why do you have what I've lost?" "Everything will unite...." "Get out of my head!" "Deunan." "Briareos!" "hold him down." "Briareos." "Deunan." "We have to" "Shut up and hold him." "I'm not giving up on you." "Open your eyes!" "Briareos." "Briareos." "Briareos." "Deunan?" "I'm here." "I'm here." "I'm always here." "Deunan." "Tereus...." "It's too late." "What is going on?" "I'm registering riot codes everywhere." "Multiple signals." "Riots are breaking out across Olympus." "We've lost communication with the other countries." "Unidentified data frequencies confirmed." "It's being broadcast from the satellites." "Everywhere?" "This is happening all over the world." "It's war." "This is how the war begins." "ES.W.A.T. will work in conjunction with the police to suppress the riots." "just ordinary civilians being manipulated." "No excessive force unless you have to." "But don't forget these riots must be stopped." "By any means necessary." "Stop walking." "Just stop." "Son of a bitch!" "How's this happening?" "Everyone who's hooked into Connexus is being controlled is that what you're telling me?" "What do we do?" "This way!" "This is getting bad." "I've got signals everywhere." "We have to destroy the source." "that's what Kestner called it." "Poseidon is behind all this and they're hiding something." "but they can't be far." "we can do it." "come in." "Have you located Briareos?" "have you located Briareos?" "Report your status." "This is Tereus." "Briareos is.... sir." "Briareos is dead." "No need to send backup." "I just told my first lie." "I-- can I?" "I guess not." "Move it." "They don't fly themselves." "Mob numbers are in the hundreds of thousands." "My readings say they're heading towards Tartaros." "Hold your positions!" "Avoid deadly force if at all possible!" "That's it." "We're in a hurry." "No time for introductions." "I know why you're here." "We need to know two things:" "What is Halcon and where can we find it?" "Halcon is no more." "But once it was Poseidon's leading research and development lab." "Professor Elizabeth Xander was the head of research." "They designed and developed rehabilitation devices for those who had sustained severe head trauma in the war." "Using artificial intelligence and cyborg technologies they saved hundreds of the wounded." "Almost like a god...." "Their pride led them to develop a distorted sense of reality." "Did Halcon Laboratories invent the Connexus?" "Most likely." "They were obsessed with mind control." "We shut them down immediately." "Everyone was fired." "Soon thereafter...." "Elizabeth Xander died in an accident." "That doesn't exonerate you." "You silenced them to protect the conglomerate." "And now this is the end result." "Tell me where Halcon is." "This is Halcon's zero-gravity plant." "We sold it ages ago." "It's been abandoned for years...." "It's not far from here." "I'm going in." "I'm going to destroy Halcon before it destroys me." "We have to reclaim control." "We can supply you with the latest weapons and a small task force." "It's the least that we can do." "This is Arges." "He will take care of the rest." "We'll meet up at the location." "Let's go." "a bioroid and a cyborg." "The fate of Olympus rests in their hands." "How does it look?" "but I should be fine." "are you going to be okay?" "Let's hope so." "prepare for takeoff." "So this is Halcon." "It's a hell of a lot bigger than I imagined." "Halcon's main computer should be located in the central core." "Our unit will escort the three Olympus Landmates." "but we must stop it." "Understood?" "there should be nobody inside." "Use your weapons freely!" "It's moving." "Watch out!" "Move to the right!" "What the hell?" "Incoming!" "Central core coming up after we get through this corridor." "Is this it?" "That must be the core." "It's those drones again." "Get ready!" "Don't stop moving!"

"will include this Hecatonchire as well." "What are we gonna do?" "How are we gonna stop this thing?" "That would be impossible." "Surrender yourselves now and become one with Halcon." "Deunan." "Briareos." "Answer me!" "Briareos!" "Is this it?" "Briareos?" "Part of Xander is still human." "You must find her consciousness." "Deunan!" "Somebody...." "Help me...."

"But our hearts...." "Our souls are not artificial." "Xander?" "Wake up!" "Deunan." "I've reset Halcon's signals." "you're conscious!" "destroy me while you still can."

"We're back to the drawing board." "That's true." "But all that matters is that we have survived." "We will forge ahead." "We can never give up." "Hope is not lost." "Thank you Deunan." "even if the world comes to an end." "where have I heard that before?" "You remembered." "How could I forget?" "You gonna fight for her?" "I'll find someone." "Someone whom I wish to protect."
