Angel Sanctuary - Assiah Act I: Electric Angel, Part 1 -- Paradise Lost -- those who turn the ocean into minerals, cover the forests with sand, pollute the wind with filthy cloud, humans who torch the sky. Adam's first wife became the bride of hell, that wild woman is to be blamed for everything. once the greatest light in heaven, turned into the rebellious and beautiful fallen angel humans would repeat their mistakes please hear the cry of the winged being soaring in the heavens above. (an angel lie dead on the ground) text : they are the messengers of god, creator of the world, the ones who warn of the final day of judgment, they are neither god nor human... angel (wounded) : how is this possible...? for thousands of year, evil beasts and treacherous angels have been sent to the fifth heaven where they were imprisoned. the guards outside are chosen from the best warriors... text : their name is angel angel : I don't believe it, these two easily finished us off, we, the principalities... (struggle to stand up) damn it, where did they go? I can't let them get their hands on that thing! such humiliation... they are only two demons! (someone hits him from behind, he falls and dies) arakune (in shadow) : we are not your ordinary demons, angel. heheh (kurai stands next to arakune who is dressed as a very sexy women. kurai is holding a broken wing from some dead angel) kurai : I am the gehenna flame emperor's fourteenth son, the dragon master kurai, and this is my cousin arakune! arakune : our purpose is to retrieve the Crystal Angel. kurai (walking down a long hall) : it's been such a long time... we've spent such a long time trying to find it, if we fail again, I'm afraid we would turn into fossils. when angels work with us demons, they become fallen angels. and the highest punishment for a fallen angel is to separate their body and soul, and freeze the body in the crystal, until the day this world ends! you were once the greatest angel... we finally found you, alexiel... (they reached the last room and in the center, chained to the surrounding is a large crystal with a women sleeping inside.) kurai : oh, you are still so beautiful... same as back then when the battle of heaven and hell... arakune : but this is only her body... alexiel's soul was sent to an unknown corner in Assiah, until her sins are erased... or else her body would forever be sealed inside the crystal! we must find her among the innumerable humans. kurei : we will find her! no matter how much she has changed, I can still recognize her immediately... and when alexiel is resurrected, then, god, angels and humans will meet their end!! It will be our era to begin a new century! (on earth, in tokyo, tv news report) reporter : according to the official record, the victim died from a broken neck. text : -1999 tokyo area S- reporter : up till now, there have been five students, nation wide, who died while using an computer. the computers themselves didn't register any errors, details are still being investigated! (a cd box with the cover that says Angle Sanctuary/Digital Angel, with blood splattered on it) text : oh god! if you really exist, please listen to my pleas! youji : MUDOU SETSUNA! (a few high school kids fighting, lots of "bang" and "ouch", one guy standing on the side, reading a book) youji : what the hell?! is this guy a monster?! our punches have no effect on him! fuck! we'll see how long you're gonna last now! fucking freshman! (he grabs a stick, kira looks up from his book, setsuna breaks the stick and hits the guy back at the same time.) guy : ouch! (he's bleeding, setsuna reacts to the blood) setsuna : [blood!] (he begins to fall back, looks really tired.) katou : what the hell, why is he suddenly fainting? youji : come on! now! kill him! (they grab setsuna, kira closes his book, setsuna is on the ground, someone grabs his shirt) kira : hey, isn't that enough? youji : huh? aren't you gonna get up? I thought you were really good? come on! hit me! kira (tap him on the shoulder) : you-chan, you-chan, that's enough! youji : shut up! I'm talking to this little bastard! kira, if you say anything again, I'll beat you up too... (the book leaves kira's hands, and he kneed you right in the stomach) kira (holding you) : did you hear what I said? youji (trembling from pain) : I...I heard you, I heard you...! (the students leave, some of them cursing) youji : [damn it, only if I brought my sword with me, I wouldn't have lost to that annoying guy] kira : that was unfortunate, they just hate your brown hair and the way you stare at them. well, that can't be helped, I'll just remain neutral between you guys. (kick setsuna) hey, setsuna, say something! are you dead? setsuna : I... I want to have sex. kira (looks funny) : you actually fainted in the end? maybe a little pathetic? they were already very beaten up. setsuna : the blood... kira : what? setsuna : I can't stand that smell... every time I see blood... kira (carrying setsuna who's still dazzed) : [you are kinda heavy] setsuna : I want to go to sleep! (a girl walking toward them) [a long time ago, every time I see blood, I would become uncontrollable homicidal. I wonder if it's to suppress my nature, that I began to fall asleep. the feeling... (the girl walks closer) why... why is it so familiar...] (he gets slapped across the face, mega-hard, by sara) setsuna (holding his cheek) : s... sara! sara : didn't I tell you not to fight anymore? do you think fighting with those guys is more pleasant than going out with me? SETSUNA! setsuna (sitting on the ground) : you make me sound like a masochist! kira (big smile) : hey, sara! your violent outbursts and your missionary school uniform go together really well. sara (pointing to kira) : kira sempai, are you trying to mess up my brother again just like in junior high? kira (holds sara close, while setsuna has a funny expression) : what did you say? you wanna see my room? of course, no problem, let's go! (sqeeze) sara : are you listening to me at all? setsuna : sem....... pai.......~~~ sara : and, brother, you forgot again? after mom and dad got divorced, we would meet once a month! that would be today! setsuna : so annoying, I'm gonna go fight some more!! sara (beating him up) : what did you say? setsuna : ouch! ouch! OUCH--! (kira is laughing, another girl standing on the side watching them) sara (realizes her existence) : oh! that's right! I almost forgot! brother, this is my classmate Saiki Ruri. ruri (shy) : h... hi... sara : she has psychic powers, and sees and halos and stuff, pretty cool, huh? setsuna (recovering) : [ouch, that really hurts] huh...? ruri (shocked) : [so big!] setsuna : ? (ruri sees huge wings in light on setsuna's back) ruri : [it's the first time I've seen such bright light, such large wings!] setsuna : what!? crazy woman! sara (trying to comfort her) : uh... ruri (trembling) : i... (run away) I'm sorry, I'll go this way, I'm going home! sara : ruri! (turn around) you... (she looks scary, setsuna looks scared...) sara (beating him up again) : STUPID BROTHER! kira (turn around, he's use to this, isn't he) : [I'm leaving] (later, in the park) sara : why? brother, why were you late today? setsuna (leaning again the edge) : huh... because... it's not right for siblings around the same age to get too close... it's a little strange... because our grandfather was british, both of our hair are brown. but other than that, we don't really seem like brother and sister. sara (kinda sad) : ... why... why did they get divorced? why is mother so kind to me, but to you... setsuna : dislikes me? I know! because I'm very quiet, I'm different... sara : what? (she slips) uh! auh! (she falls on setsuna, he holds her for a moment where time seems to pause, they both fall down) sara : i... I'm sorry, brother... are you alright? setsuna : [s... shit!] (heart beats fast, pushes sara away) uh... don't worry sara, you are the voluptuous type. sara : AH--- (bang) text : oh god, how can I even be thinking about stuff like this? (in school) I'm a normal boy. I can endure this so far, but... (tending his wounds) [mostly made by sara] kira : it's no use, no matter what you do, girls around here will still flock to you. setsuna : that would depend on the size of their butt. teacher (outside, catches setsuna's attention) : computer game? (picking on a small kid) you've been absent for a while, was it for this thing? and you dare bring it to school, I'm going to confiscate it. matsuno : NO! I can't leave it at home, some one might steal it or misplace it! teacher : a strange title... Angel Sanctuary? matsuno (pushes the teacher to the wall) : GIVE IT BACK! teacher : matsuno? classmate A : wow, setsuna, what happened to him? setsuna : I don't know classmate B : I always thought matsuno's really quiet, so he finally snapped? setsuna : he probably studied too much. (meanwhile, in sara's school, girls surround ruri) girl A : hey, saiki. can you really see halos? you probably just made that up! [is it in your own little world or something?] girl B : Maybe you've been on the computer for too long, beginning to have vision problems? ruri (scared) : ah, that hurts! ouch! sara (calling out the window) : ruri, the teacher's looking for you, you are on duty today! ruri : thank you, sara. sara : they are only jealous that you are smarter and the teacher likes you more. it's alright to fight back sometimes, surprise them! ruri : yeah... but... never mind. [because, it's true... i... I can never be like sara...] sara : ruri... (ruri is walking home alone, someone stops her) katan : do you believe in god? ruri (turn around and run) : ah... I gotta go! let go of me! katan (grab her arm) : excellent! I'm glad to finally meet a human like you... (hand her a CD) seems like the number of the victims is increasing! deep in your heart, you have a power from god, locked in that tiny body like pandora's box... you are special... because you are the chosen one. the reason I'm giving this to you is... you host a power equal to it... once the brightest star in heaven, equal to god... give yourself to rociel. (a foot... setsuna kicks katan in the back of his head) setsuna : what the hell is this foreigner talking about? ruri : sara's brother?! setsuna (pulls her) : don't just stand there, run! katan : huh? (sees setsuna's face) ! ROCIEL!? (shocked) damn... that's not possible... that face... could it be... alexiel!? ruri (breathing) : fuu, fuu, ah! (her glasses fell and broke) my glasses broke! setsuna : get those things some other time, but if that guy catches us, we're in big trouble! ruri : ah... (flashback) setsuna : crazy woman! ruri : thank you... setsuna : hn... you look cuter without your glasses. ruri (really surprised) : [the things he said a few days ago, and what he just said... maybe he says anything that's in his head at the moment...] setsuna : what did that foreign professor give you? ruri : [to be able to face himself and anyone so bluntly] oh... that... (take out CD) setsuna : what the hell is this? ruri : [like a child... no, I would say innocent like an angel...] setsuna : cd? Angel Sanctuary... I thought I heard that somewhere before. here. (toss it back) ruri (setsuna walks away) : setsuna... the halo I saw...! (later at ruri's home, she stares at the cd thinking about setsuna) ruri : [setsuna...] I wonder what's on this. let's see... screen : please enter your name type : saiki ruri (light emitted from the screen, ruri freezes) ruri : [wh... what is this?!] voices (flashback) : spirits don't exist! depressing people cause the whole mood to shift! you only care about yourself! the only thing ugly here is good at is studying. yeah! ruri : [no! stop it! not in my mind...] stop it! computer : don't cry! ruri. from now on, I'll speak directly into your mind. you will become stronger... prettier than anyone else, no one will pick on you again! you are the chosen one, a very special girl... and the word ruri is the spiritual stone Lapis Lazult. ruri : [why? why does it feel exactly like when that foreigner placed his eyes on me?] really? (crying) is it, reallly? [am I dreaming this?] who are you? (type) computer : I am an angel, lapis lazult. (the next day in school) girl A : really! that's it THE saiki ruri?! girl B : why is she suddenly so different? girl C : she doesn't cry, it's no fun anymore. girl B : I heard she's got a guy, that's just too much! ruri (smile) : sara, I like setsuna! can you help me set up a date? sara (in shock) : what? WHAT? what's so good about him? [don't you remember what he called you awhile ago?] ruri : [that's alright!] why? don't you want to help me? oh! sara's jealous! sara : w... what!? ruri : no matter how close you two get, you are still siblings, don't you think it's kinda strange? sara : hey! (jump up) don't get this wrong!! I'll help, happy? (sweatdrop) ruri (they hook fingers) : deal. don't forget... (humming) sara : [ruri?] (later setsuna's at sara's school) setsuna : oh yea, why did tell me to come to your school's auditorium? sara? ruri (smile) : hi! I wanna thank you for what happened a few days ago... setsuna (looking around, not paying attention) : I thought guys are not allowed inside these places... ruri : yes, but it's open to the public for mass once a month. sara : [ruri is so scary after she changed...] katan : such resemblance... (standing outside on another roof top gazing down through the auditorium window) but I can't sense the presence of a guardian angel around that boy. even though he has a very strong light about him, it's different compared to the official angel's. but he's not human either... kurai (from behind) : so, what's a high ranking angel doing, breaking the taboo and coming down to assiah? katan (surprised, turn around, he sees kurai and arakune) : demons?! (a symbol appears on his forehead and he turns back to the appearance of an angel) katan : I don't have time to play around. kurai : ! arakune : the letter on his forehead, lamedo? is he... he's a cherubim? one of the highest rankings... why... kurai : fuck! I'm gonna kill you! [should've done that in the beginning!] (kurai attacks, katan disappears.] kurai : hey, don't run away! fight me! coward! arakune : hey! kurai! this is bad! (the attack is heading for the window) kurai : because that guy just disappeared-- arakune : everyone inside will die! (window breaks, setsuna is the first one to notice. he jumps on sara) setsuna : duck! sara! (ruri simply stands there, shocked, a cross falling down heads for setsuna. in his mind, an angel who looks more like death holding a sword, strikes) death : die! treacherous traitors of god! rociel : [are you... going to kill me?] setsuna : s... shut up!!! (his power explodes and shatters the cross) stop talking inside my head! kurai (shocked) : such power... (shattered glass all over the place, setsuna sits up, holding sara) setsuna : what... what the hell happened? why am I the only one who avoided the glass pieces? why... mother (flashback) : I'm afraid of him! setsuna is... [no matter what happens, he doesn't get hurt. I was seriously injured by his side. I don't think he is my child!] it feels like the devil is protecting him! setsuna : ...... sara : hn... setsuna : sara! sara : huh? setsuna : are you hurt? sara! sara (shaken up) : hn... [look, I'm fine!] you blocked it for me... setsuna : heheh... oh yea... text : oh god! it seems that you know what I'm thinking now! the only woman I ever wanted is sara, and sara alone. (someone approach) huh? kurai : a... (jump on setsuna) ALEXIEL! sara (sweatdrop) : who the hell is this kid? [what?! is he gay?] kurai : I found you in such a short time, I credit this all to the greatness of my love! it's me! have you forgotten? I've longed to see you again! arakune : wait! WAIT! kurai! look at him. he's a GUY! [don't you always hate guys?] (kurai freezes, and then pulls down setsuna's shirt) kurai (screaming) : No! what happened? what happened to your sexy body? why did you turn into this? you big moron? setsuna (sweatdrop) : who the hell are you? [weirdo] (grab his shirt) I am mudou setsuna, I've always been a boy, idiot! people : hey, are you all alright? arakune (drag kurai across the floor) : people are coming! kurai! kurai (shock) : how can this be?~~~ setsuna : who the hell were those guys? [their heads have problems] sara : ah! ru... (ruri lies flat on the ground) RURI! (in the hospital, outside ruri's room) doctor : there's no need for her to remain in the hospital, her body was only scrapped with the flying glass... but sadly, your daughter's eyes... ruri (grab her bedsheet) : [setsuna... (flashback to when he saved sara) you only care about sara... sara was so cruel! we made a deal... setsuna never liked me! damn it... the last things I ever saw was...] what! [my vision is gone!] it's all sara's fault! computer : lapis lazult... I'm communicating with you again! I am your only friend! all the people who once hurt you will disappear forever! I promise! (in ruri's room, she's lying in bed, the computer is turned on) ruri : oh... angel, even though I can't see you, we can still communicate. is it true? that person would really disappear? computer : her name? ruri : mudou... mudou sara! computer : mudou sara!! understood! program initiated, executing command. delete mudou sara. everthing, deletion complete! (printer prints pages and pages with kill, kill, kill, typed all over it.) arakune : I think you are wrong. I only sensed that he's a human. kurai : he is absolutely Alexiel! arakune : why are you so sure? kurai (point to the sky) : it's the power of love! arakune : [idiot] if you're wrong, then let me eat him. he's cute, you know! [nice muscles] this boy's not only very energetic, he's got good reflexes too... kurai : oh, of course! but you know I'm right! I just know it's him! (determined) mudou setsuna! I, kurai, will awake the power inside of you! (setsuna sitting in the bath tub, he's kinda depressed) text : oh god! setsuna : a really strange day... text : please help me! am I a beast? setsuna : achu ... (sneeze) damn it... (he's freezing in the tub with large windows open right behind him) text : I don't want anyone other than sara! end of Electric Angel, part 1 top volume 01 section 02 Angel Sanctuary - Assiah Act I: Electric Angel, Part 2 teacher : does everyone understand? the equation goes here. let's try it out right now. (setsuna turn around surprised, matsuno stands up suddenly) setsuna : huh? matsuno : I have to go home! the angel has summoned me! student A : what happened? that really "good boy" kid matsuno just ran out of class! did you see the teacher's face? student B : well, he did say his reason was that the angel summoned him. student A : what angel? student B : hm... could it be that angel something computer game? it's been really popular recently. student A : I don't know... hey, setsuna, where are you going? setsuna : oh... the municipal building. student B : huh? what are you going there for? setsuna! setsuna : I wanna get my family registration book. students : registration book? (later, setsuna is very depressed, he's torn apart the registration.) setsuna : [i... I still haven't given up...] text : I knew the possibility was very small... but I still thought, sara and i... maybe we're not real siblings... heh... then after I saw the family registration... I completely believe that she's my sister... oh... setsuna : [my feelings for her, maybe it's just a temporary confusion! I'm currently in an age and state of rebellion (maybe...) extrous... (no way!) puberty (that's it!). it must be because our parent divorced and we haven't seen each other in a long time. that must be it! that's right! yes, we can't see each other anymore.] I made up my mind! I, mudou setsuna, will not see sara again before my feelings have calmed. (start walking) I swear upon a man's iron will... (freezes) sara! (sara is sitting in the park, and she's been crying, setsuna hides himself) setsuna : [why? why does she appear just when I'm thinking about her? and why...] why is she crying? [I should just go home like this! pretend I didn't see anything! but... why is she crying?] why... I can't see her right now... (take a step) I just sworn on my iron will... men are pathetic... hey... what happened? sara? [this is sad...] (he comforts sara, a picture of his iron will completely shattered... oh wellz...) sara : brother? I just went to see ruri at her house... but... (flashback) ruri : are you here to see my pain? sara! you really didn't want me to take your brother, why did you lie to me? it's all because of you! it's all because of you that I'm like this! give my vision back to me! sara : ruri... ruri (throws sara's flowers back) : go home! and don't ever come back! setsuna : she really misunderstood... sara : hn... I can understand that... because of what happened to her, she was... i.... I will go see her again, until the day she would accept me... setsuna : sara, that was an accident! it's not your fault! [and I couldn't protect two people at the same time...] it was my natural reflexes, all I thought about was protecting you... sara : huh? setsuna (nervous) : shit! uh... that's not what I meant!!! I mean... if you get hurt, mom would get all pissed again! so... sara (sweatdrop, laughing) : heheh... oh brother... this is not gonna work... you always say what's in your mind, you don't thinking about others, so sometimes you would say things that hurt other girls... setsuna : oh! sara : but that's also the reason why they like you. maybe ruri was right, I was jealous of her. therefore I feel even more guilt... I like my brother more than I thought... (setsuna stunned) setsuna : [sara...] sara (squeeze setsuna's face) : but that's enough, I have to get over this... setsuna : ouch... ouch... that hurts~~~ sara (winks) : bye! setsuna : [the things she said, it's the same problem that's bothering me right now! but... maybe it's different. the way she likes me, is different than the way I like her...] (touch his face) that really hurts... arakune : hey, kurai, don't you think he really is a moron? kurai : the worst alive! [just look at that stupid look on his face] arakune : no matter how I look at him, he really has no resemblance to Alexiel. kurai : yes, he doesn't really look like her! but maybe he normally doesn't resemble her, but a dangerous situation would summon his hidden powers. arakune : oh really... (a big ball on top of a pole in the center of the park breaks off the bindings.) arakune : we'll see... (the ball drops with a big bang, setsuna is sitting on the ground frozen as the ball misses him by an inch. kurai is surprised.) kurai : [damn it] it missed you! setsuna (looks up, kurai and arakune in the tree above) : you two again! [what the hell did you do that for?] kurai (jumps down) : that's weird, if you really are alexiel, you can break that thing with the touch of a finger! setsuna : why? she's superman? how many times do I have to tell you? moron! I'm not the person, whoever it is, you're looking for. kurai : her name's alexiel. setsuna : yeah, that's it, whatever she is... kurai : alexiel... [she was once the highest and most beautiful angel in heaven! she owns a sword which can control all the elements of earth, water, fire and wind. even when she was covered with blood, the light she emits would not diminish. she was the greatest warrior...] setsuna : angel? (confused) oh... uh... yeah, she's really great... (turn around and wave) bye, I'm going home, oh and... I think you need to get some help! kurai (furious) : wait, don't leave yet! if you don't be careful, something worse is gonna happen! (looks scary) we are savage demons from the gehenna kingdom, from a royal bloodline, we are different from other demons... arakune (looking down) : damn it! my stockings got torn by the fence wires! (kurai sweatdrop) kurai (kick arakune) : arakune! did you forget the whole purpose why we are here? (arakune falls down on top of setsuna) setsuna (sweatdrop) : hey... arakune (hug and squeeze) : oh, I'm sorry.... ha, you look pretty cute from this close. [I wonder what'll happen if I get closer.] setsuna (sweatdrop) : go away! hermaphrodite... arakune (shock) : what... what did you call me? setsuna : I'm very sensitive to these things. and besides, you don't have any breasts. arakune : pervert! how dare you touch me! setsuna : look who's talking. you are the one who jumped on me! arakune : ok, this is it! this guy is definitely not alexiel! setsuna : really... (the finger) I think I've been trying to tell you that from the start. look, if you come near me again, I'll sell you to one of those hermaphrodite bars! arakune : WHAT!? (shakes kurai violently) kurai, wake up! does he in anyway look like a beautiful angel? he only resembles her in looks, please! hello...? kurai : uh... yeah... maybe... [that stupid kid!] wait till we make sure that he's not the one, and then you can tear him apart and eat him! arakune... (suddenly, they turn around) kurai : ! (the ball that almost fell on setsuna suddenly explodes into very tiny pieces. later in school) kira : those two people are really weird. oh setsuna, is your problem solved? setsuna : oh... that... [it's fine] kira (smile) : so you're not gonna see sara anymore? (setsuna surprised) I saw you two together yesterday. that look on your face... it's so obvious. setsuna : n... no, that's not it! kira sempai, what are you talking about? kira : hn? then, sara's mine, setsuna. I'll fool around with her for a month or two, until I get bored. (stand up) setsuna (upset) : no... NO! if you touch her, I'll kill you! (push kira down, they stare at each other) kira (setsuna grabbing his shirt) : hey kid, why do you always trouble yourself with these painful and complicated emotional conflicts? setsuna : huh? friend (running) : oh, setsuna! I found you! matsuno's head exploded, he's dead in his house, it was frightening... setsuna :what happened? (image of matsuno) friend : all the reporters from new channels are down there right now, I mean I was shocked! I heard he got some computer game from a foreigner... it's called angel sanctuary... setsuna (remembers katan and ruri) : [foreigner... CD... angel? angel sanctuary...] that man... (run away) friend (screaming) : hey! setsuna! kira (mysterious smile) : setsuna, be careful! the moonlight tonight will be brighter than usual. (later, at sara's school, setsuna talking to a girl) girl : sara went over to ruri's place... huh? her address... setsuna (ruri's house) : sara! are you there? (sara in the living room, ruri's parent lying on the floor) sara : brother? what happened? setsuna : that's my line! what's this...? sara : I don't know, they were like this already when I came. I can't wake them, no matter what I do! and ruri locked her door, she wouldn't let me in! setsuna : I know! I'll go, sara, you stay here! (outside ruri's room) ruri! open the door! ruri! ruri (in front of the computer) : oh, angel! are my eyes really going to be healed tonight? will sara really be erased? computer : of course! lapis lazult. sara will be deleted as you wish. right now, all your comrades in region S are working on it. (other people just like ruri sitting in front of their computers) come! everyone, synchronize with me, and repeat the spell over in your heart. you too, lapis lazult. (ruri typing and repeating some spell. a light emits from her window, the whole region s is glowing) katan : it's show time. kurai (observing) : such power! he was actually able to convert all this human electricity output into spiritual energy! this is really getting interesting! the resurrection of angolmore is coming! the second war between the angels, demons and humans begins! katan (looking into heaven) : dear god! please forgive me... my hands are stained with blood, they can no longer be purified... I was no choice. rociel... (lamedo appears again on his forehead. he summons his powers) katan : no matter the cost, even if I fall to darkness, I will use the forbidden black magic, I will release rociel! [and for that purpose, I summon all the cyber energy gathered above this city.] (ruri's computer flashes, she falls back covering her eyes) ruri : AHHHH! citizens : huh? a blackout? the streets are in complete darkness! it's so dark, I can't see anything! hey! watch it! girl : eh... i... I've never seen the moon being so large before... ruri (surprise) : huh... I can see! my eyes... I can see now... great angel! (she turns around and a bright image of a brilliant angel is projected above her.) rociel : lapis lazult... ruri (shock) : [that face...] set... set... setsuna's face? rociel (touch ruri's face) : I am rociel, before I was sealed on this earth, I was once the most brilliant angel in heaven... I alone, received all of god's love as I stood at the highest ground... thank you, lapis lazult! only with your help, was I able to break my seal... I will honor our contract! but I do have a request first, would you assist me again? (rociel holds ruri who's still kinda out of it, wires extend from rociel's body and they wrap around ruri) ruri : ! rociel : would you please let me absorb your data and what remains of your energy? lapis lazult!

I don't know you, we've never met! rociel (cling onto setsuna) : that's cruel! don't tell me you've forgotten me, alexiel. are you evading reality for the guilt deep inside? you killed me...

RURI! setsuna : no! don't open the door now! there's a monster in there with wires all over his body! there are bodies all over the place, covered in blood! (door open, the father turns on the lights) no, don't turn on the lights! no! (closes his eyes, then open them again) huh? ruri (voice) : mom, dad, please come in. I'm alright. (she looks very strange) my eyes... they healed. an angel... an angel healed my eyes. sara, I'm sorry to have caused you any trouble. sara : r... ruri! I don't know what happened, but... but your eye can finally see again... (happy enough to cry) that's great! it really is! ruri (hugs her) : sara... setsuna (wondering) : [weird... then what the hell was that thing before (rociel with wires)? that was frightening... was that an angel?! (later on the streets, sara is very cheerful because ruri was cured) sara : this is great! the whole city's got a blackout, the moon seems so large! it's kinda annoying to take the train home all the time. but don't you think it's sorta strange, why was there suddenly a blackout? good thing I live pretty close by. setsuna (thinking) : cheerful like a little kid... [she was just crying before...] (near by warehouse, youji and another student carrying some merchandise) guy : wow, it's pitch dark in here, so the cameras are all out!

I'm so jealous~~~ youji : hey-- look at her uniform, she's from St stella mallis parochial school! guy : yo, cutie, forget him and go have fun with us! youji (grab sara) : come on!

(setsuna kicks him, he looks kinda insane) setsuna : too bad, hahaha, I can't see any blood in this darkness! (beats up youji) so I won't fall asleep like last time! now come on! youji : UH... sara : stop it! stop it, brother! you'll kill them! I don't want this to get serious, like when we were young... so, stop it! please!

(flashback) [a student from the nearby college...] student : ain't you cute, sara... you're like an angel. do you want to go play back there? sara : [he was always very nice to me... but that time, it was different.] mister, where are we going? mister... (little sara sitting in the corner, the student kneels down, sara is very scared) sara : [I was so scared, so scared...] student : shhh... be quiet... sara : [I couldn't think] student : don't worry, there's nothing to be scared about... setsuna (behind him) : STOP! what the hell do you think you are doing with my sister?! student (push him away) : get away, kid! setsuna (hurt) : that really hurts... (he picks up a baseball bat lying next to him and whacks the guy in the head.) sara : brother... setsuna : are you alright, sara? sara (point to setsuna's elbow) : you're hurt... (crying) setsuna : [don't cry] it's only a small wound, just lick it and it'll be fine... sara : really... (she licks his wound) [is it better?] (the college student is lying on the ground) sara : after a week, that guy was still unconscious in the hospital... from that time on, mother has forbidden me to be with my brother. (back to reality) not again! please don't do this for me... I don't want brother to get in trouble again just for me... (setsuna leaving with sara) let's go home, brother... youji (lying in garbage cans) : ... fuck! I'm gonna kill him! that little bastard... sara : ...are you going in to see mom? setsuna : no... I think it's better this way... sara (point to his elbow) : hey look! you're wounded at the exact same place. setsuna : hey, you're right! sara : [it'll be fine when I lick it...] setsuna (sara licks the wound) : even though that wound healed, it left a deep mark in my heart. a mark that will never disappear... mother (sara turn around surprised) : sara!! sara (gasp) : m... mom!! what are you... mother : I was worried about you, so I came out to look around! setsuna : hi mom, long time no see... mother (pulling sara) : get inside, sara, you must be hungry. sara : mom... mom! brother walked me home...! setsuna (door closes) : wait! mom! sara!! sara : brother...

I hate you, let me go! setsuna : [women's sixth sense is so sensitive! fuck, fuck!] text : mom, you're right. please use this cold and hard door to separate us, separate from my filthy hands. oh god! please rid my heart of these sinful desires! please protect that pure and innocent angel... setsuna : [protect her from a demon like me!!] (else where in tokyo, katan walk up stairs to the roof of a tall building) katan : rociel... ruri : hahah... you're amazing, katan! you actually recognized me! katan : yes, but why do you look... rociel : I absorbed her material form through her memory and simply replicated it. as long as I have data, it's quite easy to construct anything with my powers-- (changes appearance) or deconstruct them... it's been a long time ever since I last saw the moon so luminously... this nap has been too long! cherubim katan. the hateful war between heaven and hell... back then, alexiel betrayed god and invaded Atziluth with the demons... when we fought the final battle before god's tower Etenamenki, alexiel used her ultimate spell to defeat me... she sealed me beneath the earth with the curse of bondage... but at the same time she used up all her power! katan : yes, then alexiel was also sealed in the crystal angel, to be forever held at the center corridor. until recently, two demons broke through and stole the crystal... please, rociel... please come back to heaven! time is approaching the planetary cross, as demon powers became active... god has fallen into an eternal slumber to gather power against chaos. the kingdom of briah without has fallen into political turmoil and tyranny among the upper ranking angels. those who seek peace on earth has been ignored. the messengers of god are fighting each other for power, this is ridiculous! heaven is in a state of chaos! [our allies are running out of patience! to bring back rociel as our leader, I have broken the law that all angels above principalities are no allowed to come to earth. as long as I can break rociel's seal, I would resort to using dark magic, or sacrifice innocent victims!] if I was caught, I would give up my life... but I don't want those children to die pointlessly. now, the only one who can save heaven is the organic angel alexiel's only adversary, the highest existance among the angels, the inorganic angel rociel! for all the victims who were sacrificed, please come back to heaven! rociel : I can't... I can't return just yet. that boy's face, and his pulse... plus he called my name the moment he saw me... I'm sure alexiel's soul is in that body! katan : I've also noticed... that boy, mudou setsuna... but... if he really is alexiel, he must have a guardian angel. if we assume he hid his power, his aura seems like a normal human... rociel : of course. it's very possible that she purposely pretended to be a human... don't you think so? katan : then there's no reason to confront her! what if she seals you again... (rociel hits katan) ! rociel (very dangerous) : do you think I will fall at her hands for a second time? katan! katan (kneels) : forgive me! rociel... (rociel touch his face) forgive me... rociel : does it hurt? I am truly sorry... (hug katan) you broke your vow to free me from bondage, I am really grateful for that. but... I still want to investigate that boy. I've been sealed in the earth for many centuries, can you understand my pain? katan : yes... I understand... rociel : oh! by the way katan, I forgot to ask you something. am I beautiful? am I still as beautiful as back then when I reigned in heaven? katan : yes... you haven't changed a big. rociel, your unmatched brilliance will never fade. nothing in this world can rival your image. rociel : heheh... of course, that's what everyone tells me... everyone loves me, they all want me... that god is no different... he would never let me leave his sight...

(light cigarette) youji : kira, shut up! kira : didn't I tell you before that setsuna is very strong? [he use to be like a monster.] youji : he falls asleep when he sees blood, and I kicked his ass the other day. kira : his reaction of blood puts a check on himself, it stops him from killing people... youji : huh? (surprise) kira : never mind! just leave him alone! of course, unless you want to piss me off, youji... (youji is scared, later he walks on the streets alone) youji : damn it! everyone's the same! (a girl bumps pass him) youji : hey! (grab her) you also a student from St. Stella? wanna hang out with me for a while? you just bumped into me! ruri : sure! youji (later) : ... you surprised me... are you really a student from that stoic school? oh yeah, do you have a classmate by the name mudou? she's a little mix... ruri : hn... there's a girl mudou sara in my class. youji : really? mudou is not a common name... I heard that asshole's only weakness is his sister... wanna help me draw her out? ruri : draw out sara... draw out? don't you mean kidnap? youji : yes... this way, that guy'll walk right into a trap! for his dearest sister... (ruri kisses him) so are you... (shock) hn!?

(youji screams, and then his body explodes into wires and flesh) ruri : cute... this feeling is great. wait patiently, I'll bring you a delicious meal soon... (later, after school, in front of the gates, ruri waits for sara) ruri : sara! can you come with me? sara : sure! where are we going, ruri? [going shopping?] ruri : a dance, sara... it's a dance... (in setsuna's room, the moment he gets home, he finds a window broken, and in the midst of broken glass pieces, it's sara's book case with her signature bow on it's handle.) setsuna : sara!?

I really don't want to get sara involved in these things and that's why I purposely stayed away from her! I don't want to see you cry again! SARA!! kira (see setsuna running by) : huh? girlfriend : what's wrong? kira. kira (mysterious, like always) : setsuna!? wonder where he's going? I'll just follow him... kurai (from above) : if he really is alexiel... we'll find out one of these days!

I'm touched! (cling on to youji, very intimate pose) sara & setsuna : ruri!? ruri : I just have one thing to tell you, sara... in this whole world, you are the person I hate the most! even though you always protect me, it wasn't for caring reasons, I knew very well... you were willing to help that shy little girl just so you would feel superior! all you wanted was to be labeled as the good girl! you find joy in other people's pain and humiliation! just looking at this hypocrite's face makes me sick! sara : why... (crying) what are you saying such things... ruri... kurai (from a distance) : [a monster... what the hell is that thing!?] (kurai with her special powers sees ruri covered with light with huge wings.) kurai : [is she an angel!? and of the highest order... from the pulse she emits... it's filled with majestic brilliance! but why... why am I shivering? why? why do I find her so frightening?] setsuna : sara! don't worry, none of that was true! sara (look up) : huh? setsuna : I don't know why I feel this way, but I just know that she's not the ruri we know! (youji attacks him from behind with a stick) sara : watch out! behind you! (setsuna turns around and hits youji) youji : ah! (setsuna grabs him and uses him as hostage) setsuna : you assholes! let sara go! I'm not just threatening you! I'm in a seriously bad mood today! leave sara alone!

STOP IT! ROCIEL--!! youji : ahhhhh... (some power made youji to dissolve completely, rociel turns around surprised) rociel : what?

(a wirl pool appears behind him, katan is on the other end) katan (reach out hand) : rociel! over here! I'll only hold this hole for five seconds! rociel : katan! (rociel jumps to the other side, katan holds him as they both recover from that moment) katan : rociel! that man... who is he? that power which doesn't come from light or darkness... what is it? rociel (a little pissed?) : he is adam kadmon! katan : how is that possible? (shock) text : in the distant past where earth was still unpurified grounds, magic was not divided into black and white. the demons and angels who originated from the same roots both lived on earth studying and improving their magic. after a long evolution, the difference of black and white magic came into existence. adam kadmon is the legendary serafuita, the one man who controls the power of the universe at will... katan : that boy could drive such a great power? rociel! if it's true, then getting more involved with that boy is just too dangerous! rociel : you worry too much! katan : but... (rociel stops him) rociel : don't interfere anymore! katan, I won't forgive you if you say anything more! no one can stop me... I must find out mudou setsuna's true identity...

I finally found you... wait! don't go! I've waited so long to see you again... finally... please don't leave...!! don't leave... setsuna (sit up) : ... ah! (touching his face) [tears?] kurai : setsuna! you woke up! look at these guys, their injuries disappeared! everything's perfect... [that monster's gone too] everyone's alive... setsuna (surprise) : huh? you guys... kurai : that light... it's first time I've seen it too... but I can tell you are not a ordinary human! you really are alexiel's reincarnation! setsuna (sees sara) : great... everyone... (relief) [sara... I'm glad you're find... she just fainted.] listen up, you two! that angel that appeared in the light, and whatever there is about alexiel, I don't know nothing! things from my previous life has nothing to do with me! (free sara from the chair and carries her) I have more important things to do now! go back to your country, maybe there's something important waiting for you too! see ya... (leaving) kurai : my home was destroyed. Destroyed by you humans and angels. (tears falling) I am the strongest of the gehenna kingdom, therefore I was made the successor to the throne. but me and my perverted cousin arakune has always been the source of all my father's troubles. arakune (offended) : [who are you calling perverted?] kurai : With no other choice, he exiled me to the third grounds of hell Anagura. During that time, Gehenna fell sick. [acid rain fell endlessly] it's all caused by you humans who pollute the planet and thins the layers of earth... Gehenna is part of the same entity as your Assiah, such as light and shadow... [the poisonous air, the rotten earth, contagious diseases, followed by a drought.] as the equilibrium was being destroyed between the two worlds, human destructiveness was sent directly to our country! [when I returned to gehenna... (a younger kurai in shock as bones piled up like mountains) all I found was an sea of blood and endless piles of corpses. the father whom I thought was unbreakable... lied there in the midst of the bodies! the annoying old guards, my mother... and my siblings were all disfigured!] that's it! for the purpose of defeating the kingdom of gehenna on the verge of downfall, angels broke the peace treaty! broke the long quieted frontier! they attacked my home! killed all my people! even women and children were not spared... these are the things the angels did!! alexiel found me... she brought me back to the hole where all the remaining demons lived. arakune... was there among them... when my father send me to exile, he gave me the dragon stone earrings. they are the demons' treasure. three dragons god, jade, amber and agate, are sealed inside. perhaps my father gave this to me because he realized the imposing danger from the angel army, so he protected them by sending them with me using exile as an excuse! [as I was wandering in despair through the piles of bodies, I was discovered! (a hand reaching out in a flashback of alexiel) at the time I was about to be killed, you, as alexiel, saved me! you said to me : for your revenge, be strong. You taught me black magic and combat techniques.] didn't you say... we will together create a world without god and without satan, the utopia. you were most beautiful more than anyone... and filled with dignity! so... I believed in you and struggled so hard and desperately to find you... but if you were going to abandon us all, why didn't you just let me die right there? (crying) you gave me a glimmer of hope back then... why are you destroying it now? you are so cruel! ALEXIEL! YOU ARE SO CRUEL! setsuna : kurai... (kira watches everything thoughtfully from the shadow where he's standing) end of Electric Angel, part 4 top volume 01 section 05 Angel Sanctuary - Assiah Act I: Electric Angel, Part 5 kurai (crying) : even so... even so, you still think your life and this woman... is more important than us? you still can't admit you are alexiel? the real alexiel would not abandon us! never! you are not her, you are somebody else! get back to the human crowd who killed my parents.. get back and live like an insect! go back! back to your own world! I don't want to see your face ever again! setsuna (sad) : kurai... kurai : LEAVE!! setsuna : if everything you said was true, you do have a reason to hate humans. but how could we possibly know what we've done? the people in this era only tries their best to improve and perfect this world, without realizing that the fuel this earth supplies is close to drained... everyone only cares about living in the moment... because humans are too pathetic, so we must strive to live on... just look at us! we are trapped in this match box size country, struggling. [the good and evil are determined by human standards. they forced us to remove our feathers and hide our wings. schools are only mind concentration camps.] but not everyone has a goal in life, even if they do... they might not come true... wrong! I should say, most of them won't come true. everyone's painful, sad and scared. some people commit suicide because of the pressure. text : grown ups won't help us. the uncaring way of life is the simplest. setsuna : even so, we still strive to live, so we dance while covering our ears, we want to escape from our fear. I've felt the cruelties of reality... if I am really the angel who leads the destruction of mankind, then why was I reincarnated into a human? have you ever wondered about that? kurai : just LEAVE! (setsuna walks away with sara) corpse! endless corpse... is no one still alive? (flashback) ! demon (hurt, crawing) : who... who...? water! kurai (give him water) : hang on! here, water! drink slowly! [great! someone's alive!] please hang on! demon : ah.. thank you... thank you... (killed, dies in front of kurai) angels (behind her) : hey look, there's still a little kid alive! hey, she's not bad! look! it's a little girl! angel A : don't get your hands on such a despicable little bastard, you'll get punished. angel B : if people find out, you'll all be in on it! kurai (slap away their hand) : stop! don't touch me! angel B : ouch! you little bastard! who you think we are? we'll break your arms and legs if you continue to resist! kurai : NO! (she closes her eyes and tries to get away from them, but then, their blood spills on her) angel B : huh? (all the angels were cut in half. a mysterious women's sword drips with their blood) alexiel : fools... is this the real side of angels? fallen to lust and thirst for blood, a weak mind and an easily sinned flesh... how are these people different from demons? under their brilliance, the demons are purer than these angels. kid, can you stand up? if you don't give up, then become stronger. the weak will die. I am the organic angel alexiel. (taking off her cloak) from this day on, I declare war on god! (alexiel is a magnificent three winged angel in battle armor and holds the seven bladed sword) arakune : kurai! kurai (hug) : arakune! arakune : you're still alive! kurai... text : from that day on, I eagerly studied magic and combat techniques. I wish to help alexiel, I wish to get closer to her... that was my wish. alexiel : kurai, look at my hand. it's so strong, like a warrior's hand. it's been often stained with blood... so unlike a woman's hand. you don't need to be so strong, like me... a girl needs someone to protect her to become gentle. kurai : what are you saying? I think alexiel is the most beautiful person in the world! your hand is very warm, very gentle. yes! I can turn back into a boy! and I want to become stronger, better... then I want alexiel to marry me, I'll protect you! I'm serious! alexiel (kiss kurai on the forehead) : thank you, kurai. if the man I love can think like you, then none of this would have happened. but the female part of me would still mourn. if there's a second life, I want to become a man... kurai : [I wasn't joking, I was serious. I want to protect alexiel!] text : we fought together, she held an invincible sword which always changed its elements with the opponent-- the brilliant nanatsusaya mitamanotsurugi. kurai : [but then...] text : in order to seal rociel, the sword broke. (nanatsusaya breaks, and rociels falls back in a ring of light) at the same time, alexiel fell into the army's hands. we slept for hundreds of years thereafter, just to store our power and gather our comrades waiting for that opportunity. kurai : [then finally when we found that guy (setsuna) he has alexiel's face... but then he said such things...] (sound from behind her, turn around) kurai : who's there? (blast) kira : ! wow-- such power-- who are you guys? was all that you said true? it seems setsuna got himself into some really deep trouble. like you've said, he would fall deeper and deeper... kurai : he heard us... arakune : hn? how come we didn't sense his presence? but... hey, (cling on to kira) you happen to be the type that I like, so... (kira sweatdrop) I'll kill you very gently, there won't be any pain! (a needle extends from her ring) (kira easily dodges, and shocks arakune by grabbing her hand in return) arakune : ah! kurai : arakune! kira (push him to the wall) : pretty face... but a dangerous personality! woman... arakune : what did you say? really? am I really so beautiful, charming and attractive? kira (sweatdrop) : uh, yeah... [just a little too weird...] kurai : arakune!! arakune (cat) : can we please not kill him? kurai (sweatdrop, annoyed) : NO! (kira touching arakune, and suddenly lift up his skirt.) kira : huh? what the hell! you're a guy! arakune : AH~~~! kira : which country did this hermaphrodite come from? making up those crappy stories schemes for money? you know, mister, your parents will be very disappointed in you if they found out. arakune (pissed) : I don't need you to tell me, I've already really disappointed my mom, and got beaten up by my dad... but it's all the demon god's fault, not only did he make me a guy, he made me a very beautiful guy. did they ever think about how I felt? [I'm a guy with long hair, and as a member of the royal family, there are so many more restrictions...] my spirit may be a woman, but my strength is still part of a man! don't underestimate the power of a hermaphrodite! kira : ! (in about a thousand slashes, kira gets completely chopped into pieces by arakune.) kurai (sweatdrop) : didn't you say you were going to kill him neatly? arakune : that's right! I didn't even get to enjoy it and he already turned into dead meat... oh I'm such an unlucky girl... (checking kira) kurai : let's go! arakune : bye, handsome! you asked for it. (after arakune and kurai left, the air currents in the surrounding begins to change, kira is moving again, all the blood he spilled flows back to him as his wounds heal. a mark on his chest is glowing. his hand starts to move again, and his wounds completely heals.) kira : heh... hehehe... hahaha... (sit up) hahahahah... it seems like... I didn't give myself away! text (comment) : ah-- but he was just really dead... kira (smile) : kurai and arakune... it's taking longer and longer to regenerate, is this body failing? the last of the demons, and alexiel's twin rociel... must I really wake adam kadmon? no! that would place setsuna in deeper confusion! (pick up his arm) oh! forgot an arm, oops... (as the arm regenerates and attach itself to the rest of the body) but I won't easily hand over setsuna either. because in his past life, he was my woman. setsuna, do you want me as your enemy or as your ally? so then, would destruction fall on the humans, angels or the demons... it's all up to you! text : awaken! setsuna! everyone... the entire world is waiting for you, the resurrection of the warrior goddess! everyone is holding their breath waiting for the messiah with black wings-- kira : [setsuna!!] text (setsuna at sara's house) : setsuna... (sara is sleeping, setsuna sitting next to the bed watching her) rociel (flashback) : are you going to kill me? alexiel! text : I'm not a normal person, I knew that long ago... no matter what happened, I would never get hurt in an accident... but misfortune always finds the people around me. mother... and ruri... but I didn't want to admit it (his mother and father fought as little setsuna watched on) mother's hate and everyone's misfortunes, was it all my fault? "he's so disgusting!"...... "he is not my child!" from the day I heard those words... kira : what's that depressed look on your face? setsuna, let's go have a drink! setsuna : at least let me go to school one of these days! text : I became lonely, in those wild days when I hanged around sempai, I always made sara cry. but only sara would cry for me... sara : brother! I finally found you! go home! everyone's looking for you! setsuna : why? you want me to go home so I can get beaten up again? sara : I know you, my animal loving brother would never set fire to the school bird house. but I couldn't believe you were stupid enough to leave your ID at the crime scene. setsuna : shut up! shut up! does mom still wants a divorce? sara : hn... mom is always so hysterical, and dad seems to be going out with that woman at work. mom says she's taking me with her. setsuna : I don't want to go home... I want to live on the streets where no one recognizes me. where nobody would beat me or yell at me... sara : then I want to go too! sara wants to go with you. brother is always protecting sara! only you care about me when I cry... you would say "sara, what's hurting you?" text : we combined to have three thousand six hundred and twenty dollars with us. our little journey ended two days later when we were caught at the train station. but when sara told me she would come with me, I was so happy! you can't understand, sara, i... I'm not crazy... I knew, from that time on, I could only see you... I loved you so much... but I can't... if I embrace you, it would only result in your destruction! I don't want to hurt you! I really don't want to... (touch her face) hurt you... (kiss her) (he turns around, their mother is standing dangerously at the door) setsuna : mother! end of Electric Angel, part 5 top volume 01 section 06 Angel Sanctuary - Assiah Act I: Electric Angel, Part 6 text (mark 9:43-47) : and if thy doust not be cast into hell fire, cut thy hand if it offend thee. and if thy foot offend thee, cut it off. and if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out. It is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire. If thou doust not be cast into hell fire mother (hitting setsuna) : bastard! you little bastard! you're just like your father! you cruel bastard! I should never have given birth to you! sara... I don't want her to follow my path! I knew it... it would turn out this way... it's forbidden... even though I divorced your father, and even changed sara's family name... but you still can't become unrelated people! (sara overhearing everything) even if you change the blood in her body, you still can't change the truth! you are brother and sister for ever!! setsuna : [stop it... I'm losing my mind!] mother : why do you think I've been playing the bad guy all along? for both of your future, I forcefully separated you... setsuna : [don't I know this better than anyone?] mother : god won't allow for this! do you want sara to go to hell? this will only be her misfortune! get out of here!! sara : please stop this! setsuna sa... mother : sara! (sara walks out) sara : please stop this... mother. setsuna : [she heard it... everything? the evil secret that I've been trying to hide all this time...] sara : because... setsuna : [just like that... it's revealed!] sara : since a long time ago... I've always liked my brother. (smile) I like my brother the most. setsuna : [that can't be!] mother (almost violent) : sara!! you're wrong! that's not love, it's only your imagination! sara : it's not my imagination! setsuna : [your "love" is different from my "love"!] mother : there will be many more better men in your life. there'll be someone who loves you and will make you happy... setsuna is just fooling around with you. sara : stop it! setsuna : [completely different] mother : right? setsuna! setsuna : [mother, you don't have to scream around with that high pitch voice of yours, I know... please don't pierce my heart so obviously, and i... I won't tell sara the truth. but my mind is completely blank right now... oh!] sara : brother, everything mother said was a lie! brother...? setsuna : [I understand...] she didn't lie. I knew it's kinda cruel, but I just thought my sister came in handy. [as long as I say the opposite of the truth...] who with any normal taste would consider a kid like you? [when we are walking together, I see a passing by boy look at you, did you know how I felt?] in other words, I'll take any girl, all I wanted to know was how much my sister is different... (smile) [without sara, everything is meaningless. other than sara, I don't want anyone else. other girls may be a hundred times better, but I just want sara. I love sara.] all I did was kiss you while you were asleep. if that made you think I like you, don't be so conceited. [I'll use all my strength to continues saying such things. using all the words I know, taking on an arrogant face, break and destroy those strings that use to bond us.] I hate stupid girls! [see? so easy, so simple, cruel and mercilessly completely shattered...] (sara cries, runs back to her room) mother : sara! (setsuna about to run after her) stop right there! for as long as I live, you won't get your wish. leave! I'm not letting you see sara again! (setsuna pin her to the wall) ah! setsuna : I don't need you to remind me... I won't see her again! but... (crying) I did all this for sara! not because you told me to! text : see? so easy... to gain is always so difficult, and to lose is so easy-- "a better man?" "a better man who will make sara happy?" forget it, mother! no matter how long you wait, and search all over the world...] setsuna : there won't be another man who loves sara as much as I do! (runs away) (meanwhile at kira's house) kira : shut up! old man! old people should just pray until their final days! father : kira!! you... you moron!! (kira leaves on his motorcycle) setsuna : kira sempai... kira : setsuna? setsuna (sitting on the stairs, depressed) : sempai, do you believe in god? I remember I read it somewhere, things like adultery, rape, and sex with animals, etc. could all be cast to hell. and there's incest. when it was someone else, I thought it was horrible... but when it involved me... kira : setsuna... you're... setsuna : sempai, did you know? I head that I was only a great angel in heaven! these two annoying demons want to use my power to destroy earth. but I don't care about humanity's troubles... I'm only thinking about sara... everything about her... and the person they want isn't this mudou setsuna, but his powerful past. not me... the only ones who see the real me... there's only sara... and... sempai. what would I turn into... (kira reaching out his hand) I don't know what to do... kira (touching him) : setsuna... you really love that girl... she's so lucky! I can't ever be like you! setsuna : I've always noticed, sempai you avoid being loved, so you always change girlfriends. just now, you yelled at your father on purpoe... kira : I have no right to be loved by my father. there are certain secrets in this world that even in death I can't reveal it! if I tell anyone, everything would fall apart! no matter how close to family, I must hide the truth... (something is amiss in the air, setsuna looks strange) kira : what? setsuna (shiver) : I just... I just felt someone's presence, it gives me the creeps... kira : do you have the flu or something? you don't look too well, stop talking about depressing stuff! go home! setsuna : sempai... kira : get yourself a drink and then go to sleep. (throws setsuna something) oh by the way, here. setsuna : huh? kira : it's my charm stone, maybe it'll be useful someday! if you lose it, I'll kill you! setsuna (looking at the stone tied at the end of a sash) : ...... ok, got it, so mean... [don't you think it's a bit of a waste?] (leaves) bye... kira : next... (turn around) how much longer are you gonna watch us? (the clouds change, rociel's face appear in the sky) rociel : hahahah... hahaha... then what are you doing here? heheh... if it wasn't for me, do you think you could've lived on? that beaten up body, how long do you think it's gonna last? hahah... of course, you're here to protect setsuna. he's reincarnated so many times... is it true that his guardian angel has disappeared? if so, I think the way you express your love is so right, very much like mine! next time you hang around him, remember... ahahaha... (his image fades, at sara's house) mother : I'll be leaving in a few minutes, sara, are you going to be alright? sara : hn... (in her bed) mother : oh! st. stella... thank you for coming. sara! your friend is here! please! come in. then I'll leave now. ruri : hello-- sara! sara (shock) : ruri! ruri : huh? are you alright? sara! here, a little present. sara : w.. what happened yesterday? ruri : it was just a prank! they were all setsuna's sempai! sara, you were unconscious so you probably don't remember. actually, setsuna's going out with me. but he tells me that his sister is always bothering him, so he suggested that I give you a little warning! setsuna (flashback) : [sara! I hate stupid girls! don't be so conceited!] sara : a lie... setsuna : don't be so conceited! sara : it's a lie! my brother wouldn't do that to me!! he's always very nice to me... he's always protected me! we grew up together! and you... you don't know anything! ruri : ... shut up! (frightening) you are the one who doesn't know anything! you bitch! you dirty whore, how dare you seduce men with your ugly body! it was only fifteen years... you only had such a short time with alexiel... sara : ! (falls) ruri : do you think you can value that more than the few thousand years we had together? alexiel... katan (intrude) : rociel! ruri : katan... I'm only absorbing her data, only this girl, I won't simply kill her! katan : you are hurting innocent people again... (holding sara) what's happened to you? rociel... (ruri wraps her arms around his neck and kiss him) ro... (surprise) rociel!! (push her away, spit out something) what is this? (a pill) rociel : no. you must obediently swallow it. like everyone else... katan : ! rociel : you are a high ranking angel, so you won't turn into a puppet. it'll slowly mature in your body, until you completely obey my orders. even though it's only synchronizing with me... [some people go wild and their heads explods.] katan : impossible... in heaven... my comrades... all those angels who support you with an iron will... they were... rociel : that's right... everyone is my adorably puppet... but... it's their free will! everyone is in love with me... they would do anything to have me... I just simply gave them their wish. katan : ... why... why do you think like that? even without doing such things... some people are still loyal to you! (rociel walk up and holds his chin) ! rociel : you wouldn't understand, I was betrayed by my twin sister, who can I still trust? innocent angels like you who still pities humans are close to extinction... you are so pure, so kind, you never understood anger or jealousy... I want to pollute you every time I see you! katan : AH! (in pain) ah!! rociel : mudou setsuna is alexiel. I must wake her, and then kill her! katan : ah! rociel : oh katan, i... katan : ah! rociel : I never believed in love, terror is my only truth!! depends if you are going to absolutely obey my orders, or would you accept me and synchronize? it's your choice! by the way... I'm not obeying Father anymore! katan : ro... (struggling) rociel! rociel : or else... I'll break your wings and then kill you! (leaves) katan : rociel!! [why did this happen? what has changed you? but... heaven still needs you, those ranking angels who wants to control heaven... also... heaven has begun the terror reign upon earth... only rociel's power can stop them! in the last war, why didn't alexiel kill rociel but instead sealed him? with her powerful sword, she could've done it! but... if alexiel is awaken again, rociel would... rociel is our last hope, we can't lose him! of course! even if mudou setsuna is alexiel, he's only a human right now! i still have time...] with my power, I should be able to kill mudou setsuna!! end of Electric Angel, part 6 top :: volume 02 ::
