My body starts to melt

It was waiting for this miracle

009

You've got the chance to express you

Here comes the imagination

Time, place

Truth and lies

Joy and sorrow

Kindness, hateness

Happiness, sadness

Smile, tears, friendship

Alone, together, birth

Death, sleep, fight

Space and oneself

In that promised place

I feel it once again

The spreading of a dream that's come true

I start running today too

Joe!

I'll go on ahead!

The Mutant Warriors Arc Part 3

Episode 41: Nightmarish Future

Hey, what happened?!

Rina and 009's consciousnesses were in sync.

They were both swept away.

What?!

Phil!

Phil. He released all of his power at once.

He was trying to protect Rina with a psychic force field.

Let's go back!

Hurry!

Come on, Phil.

They got away?

This is...

Time travel?

So 009 was sent to the past or future?

Using psionic power to send him to another time...

Hey, wait a second here.

Can psionic power really be that all-powerful?

009 really was sent through time.

Still, the idea of a human mind controlling time...

Time has always been a subjective thing.

The human mind affects time by thinking about it.

"Time keeps pace with all, its individual speed depending on the person."

Even Shakespeare had a line about it.

What does it mean?

I suppose that sometimes time seems to run fast and at other times slogs on,

depending on the state of mind.

That's all well and good, but...

In other words, if you could involve a third party

in someone's subjective flow of time, it would be possible to even control time.

Logic... Who cares about logic?

Where's Joe?! Where did 009 go?!

Where am I?

This environment...

What is this environment?

Where the hell are we?

Don't!

Stop it!

Shut up!

Where is he?!

That's enough!

Is there some point to us fighting here?!

Take this!

I see. You don't understand either, do you?

You don't know where we are.

Let go!

You coming here wasn't part of the plan.

I was dragged here too because of you!

We have no reason to fight here.

The pendant...

You know about that pendant?

Nikol... Where did you get it?

Someone left it behind when they died.

When they died?

You mean the owner of that is dead?!

Do you know about him?

No.

You muttered "Nikol."

Is that his name?

Nikol...

I don't know.

I don't know him.

Yo.

What's up?

Can't sleep?

Don't worry.

I'm sure 009 is safe.

How?

How can you say that?

We have no grounds to believe that.

My bad.

True, that's a cliched consolation line.

But it's all I can say.

Sorry.

I wish I could see into the past and future, too.

If you could see even more than you do, your troubles would increase, too.

I don't care.

Get some rest, 003.

You're not the only one who's worried about 009.

I wish you would quit acting like you're carrying this tragic burden alone.

I know.

But right now, I want to be left alone.

Why do I always open my big mouth?

Nikol...

Nikol is dead?

Your memories?

Liar! You're a liar!

Nikol... Nikol can't be dead!

You remembered?

Nikol...

Phil, what happened?

I have a favor to ask you. It's about Rina.

Rina?

Nikol was murdered by psychokinesis?

That's what 001 said.

If that's true, then maybe Nikol's killer is...

Our memories were erased and then we just followed Professor Gamo's orders.

If he ordered them to do it, Mi or Kane would have...

But that can't be.

There are many things I want to ask you.

Why were your memories erased?

What is this time period?

And...

What are we?

Who is it?

You're Dr. Gamo Wisky, aren't you?

From Black Ghost...

Certainly I've pledged my allegiance to Black Ghost.

As long as they provide me research funding, meager as it is.

From your appearances, I don't believe you've come here to do me harm...

That was us.

Can we save her? Can we rescue Rina?

It's possible.

When you leaped for her, I reflexively reined in my power.

I don't believe they're in the Labyrinth.

If I can grasp Rina's consciousness,

I'll be able to pinpoint the era they went to and fly over there.

But Phil, are you that attached to Rina?

To be honest, I've felt it all this time, too.

Like we're connected somehow.

Rina may be right. Maybe we are brother and sister.

But I don't know for sure, which ticks me off...

Keeping your emotions is your salvation.

How are you going to connect with Rina's consciousness?

I'll unify consciousness from here with hers and then call out to her.

With more people, the better, if possible.

I see!

All we'd ever known was a world of endless war.

I have a feeling that this era isn't far off from where we originally came from.

I have a feeling that this era isn't far off from where we originally came from.

From the perspective of your era, the future.

The future?

This?!

All information was blocked and history was deleted,

so we survived without even knowing the original cause of the war.

All we knew was that if we didn't do anything, only extinction awaited us.

Maybe our psionic powers are a form of evolution,

to protect ourselves during the war.

But we didn't have the will to defy our fate.

We even accepted our own doom, lying in wait.

But then Nikol found a record of past memories.

It was a file that someone had left behind.

Only a fragment of history was written in there.

But from that record, we learned about peace for the first time

and that there had been a peaceful era.

I was struck by the idea of returning to the era

written about in that record and revising history.

Mi and Kane agreed with that idea.

And so the five of us used Mi's power to travel from this era to the past.

But we got separated from Nikol along the way.

We almost became lost in the Labyrinth, a space-time maze.

Nikol was my lover.

After arriving in your era, we were suddenly beset with a hyper-aging effect,

so we visited Gamo.

Psychics from the future?

I don't care if you don't believe us.

But we know about you from a historical record.

It said you were an expert on radical psionic powers in this era.

And so?

You thought maybe I could cure this hyper-aging side effect?

I would be honored.

But we'd made a huge mistake.

Gamo amplified our psionic powers, erased our memories,

and brainwashed us into being loyal to him.

So we would defeat you.

And what about the hyper-aging effect?

In the end, he didn't cure us.

If we use our powers too much, it starts again.

That annoys Gamo, too.

Oh no! Hide behind a building!

What are they?

Cleaners that always come in after a battle.

Their job is to murder any survivors that they find.

Why are they so relentless?

I don't know.

I just have to think that they want everyone dead.

The enemy is Black Ghost.

What'd you just say?!

Our enemy is Black Ghost.

We traveled to your era in order to defeat Black Ghost.

It can't be...

You're telling me they're... Black Ghost still exists in the future?!

They're pursuing someone!

Black Ghost...

009!

Run, 009!

We can't... We can't beat Black Ghost?

Then what were we fighting for?!

Can you hear me?

Who's there?!

Can any 00 cyborg hear me?

Can anybody hear me?

Who are you?

We're supposed to believe this?

They'll tell us a way to get 009 back?

It's obviously a trap.

But if it's not, it's probably our only chance to bring him back.

Unfortunately, that's right.

But how would they know?

One of their members accidentally ended up being transported to another era, too.

It hit me then.

I believe that's originally where they're from.

It seems you believe me.

Although you're rightfully on guard.

Tell us how to rescue Joe!

Are we fighting a meaningless battle?

A future in which Black Ghost exists...

That means our war was pointless.

But if the future can be changed...

That's why we have to bring Joe back to our era.

It's time for the final battle against the mutant warrior, Kane.

Dr. Gamo, Father, your mad ambitions end here.
