01x22 - A Brother's Determination

[bunniefuu]

Many years ago, mankind faced a divine

fury in an event known as the Day

of the Cataclysm. Our entire world was b*rned.

The fire raged with an intensity that

threatened to reduce mankind to ash.

The places they lived, the languages they spoke,

the culture they had built. None could escape its wrath.

This is Yonah. Yes, that's right. He's

still cut off from most of company.

Eight. No signs of movement from the two of them so far,

but it's a matter of time.

Shinra Kusakabe and commanders sho will make their second contact.

All shall transpire as the evangelist foresaw.

Lathom. The show is just getting started.

I think I'll try to find a place

to spectate from. I'll come too.

Don't sneak up on me like that. You startled me. How may.

A person with an adolla burst who

isn't me or sho has come here.

Right? I feel like it's finally happening.

Yes. After nearly two centuries on the solar calendar,

I dare say the evangelist will be pleased.

The Adolla burst is known to some as the primordial flame.

To some is the flame of perdition.

It's one of the world's greatest mysteries

because it never belonged in the world that you naves inhabit.

This is where the adolla burst belongs.

Here in this charred dimension of bones and black flames.

So any burst is a flame from this other dimension.

But if they don't come from Earth,

then how do I have one? Tell me.

Because absolute power cannot be confined to any one world.

Yeah, what's that mean? And as long as I've got you here,

is this place a source of spontaneous human combustion?

I'm seeing this Sahara Adolla link. Right.

What is it, really? It's the underworld. Odola.

But you'd know it by the name

it received from the first people who saw it.

You look upon the evangelist nave, the one

who protects me, who grants me strength.

And troubleshoot. Mayday, mayday, mayday. Pakistan. Six,

six, one. Sir, we've lost one engine.

Take what you got and leave now.

You're wearing out your welcome. No one

here wants to see you here. Yeah.

Why you want to.

Shepherd. Try to save yourself like you. Every branch we.

Scream May.

So you're the evangelist. You're the one

who's using those bugs to turn people into infernos.

We're back here.

Hey, Gina. You okay? What's going on? Did something happen?

Because of the grace of the evangelist,

I am possessed of an absolute power.

You may have an a dollar burst, but you can't win.

He's feeling heat.. From the rest

of the universe as it cools.

The universe's expansion slows down. That's. Always able to make time stop.

That doesn't sound possible, even with an adult burst.

Your ally has the right of it.

I call the universe to slow its expansion,

which lets me stop time..

So it doesn't matter how fast you can move.

Shinra. If he can literally freeze time,

then you've got no hope of catching him.

I know it's a long sh*t. But that doesn't

mean I'm gonna give up.

Damn it.

No matter how fast you attempt to fly,

my power will freeze you in place. You're a cocky little brat.

The.

It's no use. He'll destroy you.

You have no hope of victory. A knave

like you could never best me.

What did you say? I called you a hopeless knave.

Yeah. You've been calling me Knave this whole time.

Where did you even learn that stupid word? Here's an idea.

Show some respect and call me brother.

You've really gone and done it now.

Let's do this, punk. One way or another,

I will catch you. You've got this big, bro.

You're not my bro. Let's get back to our game of tag now.

Last time we tried to play was

a bust. You couldn't quite walk yet.

Cease your rambling. It means nothing to me. Now start running. Show

your brother, is it? And he's coming in hot.

New.

I'm starting to wonder if you've ever done this before.

You can't hit the tagger show. It's against the rules.

I have no intention of playing your foolish game.

Oh, yeah? You're scared you'll lose.

Here's the thing. I didn't come all

the way down here to pass the time.

Hey there. Ready to play a game with your big bro?

He forced to link with me.

This is crazy. I think you're getting even faster. Shinra.

Got pretty close, but I was faster than I thought I'd be.

Guess that messed up my timing. What are you doing?

I see why shows ability is so strong.

It must be because he has such a powerful connection to Idola.

In a dull link. I felt a weird

sensation in my feet and then suddenly I was faster.

Was that because of an adult link to.

As for the evangelist, who is that really?

Or should I say what?

I don't need those answers.

I just need their grace or whatever. It'll make me strong.

But how do I get it? Air.

I've experienced a doula links on accident more than once.

Gotta make it happen.

The way this is going. I don't think I'm going to last.

Severed universe.

Oh.

I.

It's a matter of time before you collapse.

Twice now, the emotions of another person

have found their way inside me.

First, there was Lieutenant Conroy's need for

help, and second was Giovanni's bloodlust.

I get it now. Those were caused by an adult link.

Up to now, I've only been on the receiving end.

But this time I'll be the one charging him.

I'm telling you, when a doula burst without grace, can't win.

Yeah, I'm aware of that.

Ha ha ha.

Hey, Shinra. I think we should run.

If this keeps up. You're just gonna get k*lled.

Why, when it's this.. Obvious, there's no hope.

Why do you keep charging forward?

Because my brother needs me.

Because even now, we're still family. Why

do you place importance in blood?

I don't know you, and I'm not bound to you.

The thing is, there are people in my life

who I can look up to.

Well, if you think he's alive, then so do we.

We'll strategize around the premise that Shinra's

brother is with the white clad.

We were talking about how weird you'd been acting.

There's no reason for companies outside of the eighth

to meddle in the Eighth's affairs.

I want to see the white clad stopped for good.

So let's stop them together..

Until you figure out what means the world

to you. I'll take your help.

I heard about your brother's show. Keep him safe. Okay?

What's your point?

It's that as your big brother,

I need to show you the kindness that's been shown to me.

I get it. I'm No. One to you show.

I'm just some random person who turned up out of nowhere.

But to me, you're more than that.

I was told that you and Mom had b*rned to death.

I didn't think I'd ever see you again.

One more time. If I could just see them one more time,

I'd repeated that wish my whole life.

And now you're here right in front of me.

So I'll be damned if I'm going to give up on you now.

Your big brother is going to swoop in and save the day.

So I'm so glad you're alive. Thank you.

I want you to know that to me, you're like a miracle.

All I can do.. Is move faster.

Faster.

He's gone. But this is my frozen world.

Nothing can move here. So where is he?

Another one seems earthquakes are getting more common.

I'm getting a case of nerves in my nerves.

I hope company eight's doing all right.

Keep the chatter to a minimum, please.

Right. Apologies. Lieutenant Onyango. Sorry to call

you out of retirement..

After Rick has betrayed you had no choice.

And if you're still at the front,

I may as well fight with you.

How's that right eye of yours feel?

Do all these recent earthquakes mean what I think?

I failed that Shinra kid. I wanted

him to stay out of all this.

Where did he go?

Should I return time to its normal speed?

No, it's too dangerous to go back without ascertaining his movements.

All right. I met my limit.

That was rough. Don't think I've ever gone that fast.

I went right past you. I don't get it.

How did you move all the way over there?

If you don't know, then I must be getting a lot faster.

This game of tag isn't over yet, so.

Yeah. I promise I'm going to catch you.

Hi show. Do you want to play a game today?

How did I get that memory? Through a link.

Just tell me a moment ago, how

did you disappear? Hell if I know.

I was just trying to go faster.

So couldn't even find Shinra by stopping time.

How could Shinra have disappeared? Just by moving quickly, though.

When a body travels fast enough, it reaches

a threshold that it can't withstand and falls apart.

If it's traveling at ultra high speeds,

it can break down to the level of invisible particles.

No. Once a person splits apart, there's no putting them back together.

Then again, Commander Cho is freezing the universe.

That's pretty wild. Maybe with the absolute power of an adult burst

reassembling a disintegrated body isn't that implausible?

How is this evangelist person making all of this possible?

Ready or not. I'll k*ll the universe before he even moves.

Matter. It still need to iron out some kinks.

Commander Show looks really surprised. I know she was crazy fast,

but could he be faster than the speed of light?

If a body goes past the speed of light,

it could go back in time.

It's possible. After he splits his hyper speed,

reverts his body to the state it was in before.

Wait. But if it keeps on moving at that speed,

he could create a mini black hole.

And if that were to happen, you wouldn't only destroy the nether,

he would probably end up wiping out the whole Tokyo empire.

He has no idea. Oh, you should warn him.

It's the right thing to do. I know.

And yet my curiosity is getting the better of me.

I could watch it all happen firsthand.

I'm starting to figure this out. You had better dodge this one,

or else you're going to be it.

As long as I use my power first, I can stop you.

I'm a bit surprised that you managed to force an adolla link,

but still, you're nothing I can't handle.

At least this fight wasn't boring.

He broke into my frozen uniform. Oh, did I land a hit?

This shouldn't be possible. How were you

able to move inside my suspended world?

And with a flame the evangelist hasn't graced.

He did what was done to me back

when I linked with Conro and Giovanni.

It was the strength of their feelings that did it.

So I used mine to connect with you.

And since you're linked to the evangelist. Well,

when I connected with you, I got some evangelist as well.

Are you saying that you stole some grace from me?

You see how it's finally happening? Yes.

Here's a dollar burst has been activated

through a link with the evangelist.

One might say it's the awakening of a fourth generation..

Commander show might.. Be able

to arrest the universe's expansion to stop time.

Machinery can stop time by moving faster than light speed.

With similar skills.

I'm keeping my promise to Mom.

I will bring show back home. He's standing right there.

I just have to catch him.

I haven't got a.. Clue what's going on.

Are you able to see it, Jamia, or no?

I can more or less. I wonder

for every word or two that passes between us,

how many blows do you think they exchange?

I'm not even human, and I couldn't say.

So did you get me last? I kind of lost track.

What are you talking about? Our game of tag.

Which one of us is it now? You or me? Ridiculous.

You're a persistent knave. I'll give you that.

But you need to accept I'm not your brother.

Why are you getting such an attitude? Rebellious phase.

Don't show up from nowhere and pretend we're family.

Doing great, bro. Keep it up. If you

catch me, I'll give you a treat.

What's this? Has your speed begun to drop off? Not a chance.

I can do this all day.

Ha ha ha ha.

It looks like you've all but overheated.

It's over. I'm taking you to the evangelist.

We have need of your burst.

Damn it. Shinra. Wait a sec. You

need to stop fighting right now.

If you get overheated while using your fire,

there's no undoing the damage it'll cause.

You've got to listen to me. Whenever

you move fast enough to stop time,

your body disintegrates. In that moment, you die.

Do you think I've been dying? You

use your flames to accelerate to the speed

of light. That's how you're stopping time.

But that tears up your body, breaks it into subatomic particles.

Then by accelerating past the speed of light,

those particles go back in time.

That's how you've been reforming yourself. But if you

overheat in the middle of that process,

then you'll actually die and you can't come back from.

You're saying I could die for real?

What's so amusing? That grin turns my stomach.

Give it a rest, will you? It's a nervous tic.

Boy. It was before, but I don't

feel nervous at all right now.

I guess I'm just happy to be playing with you.

Stop putting things into my head.

I'll do it, Sheena. You won't be able to come back this time.

I will come back. Because I refuse

to leave you alone. You hear me?

If I left you to fend for yourself again.

In what kind of big brother would I be?
