"Why am I feeling so strange?" "Is it because Toya's not with me tonight?" "What'll I tell him when he returns?" "He'll be so surprised." "I'm pregnant..." "with your child." "Will he be happy?" "Will he tell me to get rid of it?" "But I want to have it." "I want to have your baby, Toya." "Time's running out." "Yuhi, please get on board." "We can't wait any longer." "Get in!" "What about the others?" "Where's Shota?" "And Toya?" "They probably won't make it." "That's ridiculous!" "They were all alive just minutes ago." "They have to come back!" "Shota!" "Yuhi!" "Dr. Kiritani..." "Dr. Kiritani is...!" "Dr. Kiritani!" "Put down your weapon." "Or I'll break the kid's neck." "Let Shota go." "I won't try to escape." "Dr. Kiritani!" "Shota, go now." "But Dr. Kiritani..." "I'm home." "Toya, are you home?" "Come on... you're here, aren't you?" "So you're pregnant, huh?" "I thought you might be." "Toya will be so happy." "I think he's been hoping for... a real family." "But what about you?" "Toya's been hoping...?" "For his very own family?" "I want to have the baby, too." "Well, I'd better give Toya... my lecture on becoming a father." "Hot!" "Oh Doctor!" "I sent the nurse on duty to buy some groceries for dinner." "I hope I'm not a third wheel." "It's not like that!" "Come on, dig in!" "Oh, Doctor!" "You have to eat!" "Or you'll never become a good nurse." "Boy, I'm stuffed!" "Shall I make coffee?" "Good idea!" " How about you, Aya?" " Yes, please!" "I asked Old Gen in Sado about the celestial robe." "A family in Niigata claimed to be descended from angels." "I don't know if it's true... but the women were good at fishing... and when they wore their robes they'd turn into fish!" "What?" "Is that true?" "You're putting us on again!" "A hundred years ago, a carcass of a creature... that was part fish, part human washed up on shore." "But they're an old man's stories." "I wouldn't put much faith in them." "You sure you don't need me to take you home?" "No, its okay!" "Dr. Kurotsuka." "You're just like a father to me." "Good bye." "I wish I had come much sooner." "For my sake, for the celestial robe... and for the sake of the Mikage family..." "I'm going back to the Mikage." "It's been a long time since we had a relaxing dinner together." "Are you busy at work?" "I'm working on an important project." "That's why I've had to postpone our wedding." "Please convey my apologies to the chairman." "Don't worry." "Father told me to use the time to polish my domestic skills." "And besides, planning the wedding has been quite fun." "I've been thinking about children." "Would you prefer a boy or a girl?" "I don't want any." "I don't want any children of my own." "You're right." "There's no need to rush." "Hmph... a human woman." "The military cease-fire committee has..." "No, you're wrong!" "Our goal is to create an earth-friendly environment..." "Earth?" "You're only interested in yourselves." "In this shocking case... the young mother of a one-year-old baby... threw the infant out of her third-floor window." "It's like, "not again"?" "Recently, there have been an alarming number of child abuse deaths." "In this case..." "Mother, I'm sorry!" "Mother!" "You are a Mikage!" "Do you understand that?" "!" "A Mikage!" "Next time... next time, I promise to be the best in my class!" "What is it?" "What?" "Aya?" "All right." "I'll be there in ten minutes." "Put it on her." "Congratulations on your pregnancy." "I wish you the best as your cousin, Aya." "This isn't much of a handcuff." "It's all right." "I know you won't run away." "Because the celestial robe you seek is here." "It's actually a shield created by the power of the C-Genomes." "It will resist any force unleashed by Ceres." "Where's Toya?" "He's dead." "Liar!" "I'll give you a memento of him later." "Then show me his body." "It's not here." "Alec threw it in the ocean." "After the autopsy, preserve the body for cell samples?" "!" "Chief, you're going to use Toya even after his death?" "!" "Forgive me, Toya." "If I can't return you to Aya... let me at least return you to the sea that you loved!" "I don't believe you!" "Then what will you believe?" "Chief, are you going to show her...?" "It doesn't matter." "She is the founding mother." "Put Type A Pallas on Monitor Three." "This way." "They're eggs harvested from Chidori Kuruma's ovaries." "They're being mixed with selected sperm cells." "After fertilization, we planned to do an in vitro on her... and bring the pregnancy to term." "What?" "Half of the C-Genome women here are pregnant." "Some of them were virgins, but they all gave their consent." "In vitro pregnancy is nothing new." "You became pregnant naturally." "We use artificial insemination." " The babies are the same." " You're wrong!" "Well, we did some genetic selection... so the children born here will be superior." "I love Toya!" "That's why I became pregnant!" "And I'll tell my baby..." ""Your mother and father loved each other!" "That's why you were born."" "I see." "You're concerned about lack of love?" "Let me ask you." "Why do males and females copulate?" "The answer is simple." "To leave progeny." "It's an instinct for survival that is imbedded in our genes." "In the prehistoric ocean... asexual creatures separated into male and female." "This enabled the union of different genes." "Procreation... strengthening their ability to withstand... changes in environment and deadly bacteria." "In the animal world, only the fittest survive." "You know what I mean... a foolish young female will sleep with a stupid male for money." "Without a care for the future... a silly girl gives birth and becomes a mother." "It makes me sick!" "What is wrong with creating a new breed of descendants... before the final destruction?" "The celestial maiden is the ideal woman with beauty and intelligence." "Even better that she is from outer space!" "Just who do you think you are?" "!" "All-powerful?" "!" "If not me, someone else would have done it!" "What I'm doing is just part of the flow of time!" "Love is just an illusion that promotes reproduction." "The passion of love eventually cools." "And that results in betrayal and hatred." "Emotions dies." "No!" "Let me give this to you." "A remembrance of Toya." "This is the result of your brother and your husband... fighting over you." "When he's dead, your love is silent." "A gun." "I've never used one before." "It's quite powerful." "Return the robe to Ceres." "It belongs to the celestial being." " The robe has long been..." " Return it!" "I know that it's being recreated in this laboratory." "What?" "I see." "That Kagami..." "Return it!" "Release her from this blood-filled cycle!" "Not only Aya." "Release everyone tied to the Mikage family." "Aki!" "Stop hiding behind that facade!" "Aya..." "Aya is waiting for you...!" "Shut up!" "Aki, come home!" "To your sister...!" "Aki... the robe..." "Shut up!" " Aki!" " Shut up, I said!" "Give me that!" "Aya." "You want to die that much?" "I was going to keep you alive to lure Aya here." "Aki." "Aki!" "Master!" "To..." "Toya!" "He was a good man." "Much better than you." "Please, stop." "Mikagi!"
