No. 6 (2011) s01e08 Episode Script

The Reason for That Is...

Follow my route!
I can't scale this cliff
Didn't you want to be my equal?
Rat where are we?
Don't resist
Huh?
Let them capture us.
The Reason
Why have you returned Rat?
Who is he?
The man who named me.
I have some questions for you
About No. 6.
I told you to forget the past and live free.
That's bull.
I'll never be free as long as No. 6 exists.
Then how will you obtain your freedom?
By destroying No. 6.
By destroying it?
Like slaying a monster?
That city is a demon.
You will never be able to defeat it.
How can you be so sure?
Because No. 6 was your creation?
Because you watched as it grew into a demon?!
He created No. 6?
That's Rikiga's
Sion here is the son of the woman in this picture.
Her name is Karan.
Karan
Yes.
And the person in the center
is you.
W-What do you mean Rat?
Why is my mother in a picture with him?
I wouldn't know.
That's why I'm asking him.
Sion was it?
Come here.
Are you sure?
He might bite you.
This kid's a lot meaner than he looks.
You brought him here.
I assume he's neither good nor evil.
Let me see the scars on your body.
As I thought it was a parasite bee
You know about the parasite bees?
Start from the beginning Sion
Tell me everything that's happened to you.
A plague?
I can't be certain.
But many people have died of unknown causes.
As I explained before
My network of contacts provides
me with reliable information.
Plus
All witnesses were detained by the authorities.
None of them have returned
Just vanished like smoke.
Karan.
No. 6 takes everything from us.
They take anything that inconveniences them
Just like they took Sion from you.
Where
Where am I
Who are you
Look her synch rate is climbing rapidly.
But of course.
Do you realize how many elites
we've sacrificed for this?
I heard the higher-ups are starting to complain.
That's irrelevant.
Once she awakens they'll shut up.
Me?
We just need to use this sample
I'm a sample?
Who is she?
I'm scared Scared
Sion Sion
Sion!
What?
Hey Sion.
Do you remember the light purple sweater
I gave you for your birthday four years ago?
Yep.
The one your grandmother knitted for me.
Do you still have it?
Oh
Well I gave it away.
Who did you give it to?
I can't tell you.
Why not?
I just can't.
Rat?
There.
I can hear it.
Soul carried away by the wind♪
What can you hear?
heart stolen away by a human.♪
A song.
Just listen carefully.
Oh Earth♪
Oh stormy rains♪
Oh heavens Oh light♪
What
What is this song?
Shelter all within your embrace.♪
Stop.
Stop
Shelter all within your embrace.♪
Stop it!
Stop it
To live in your embrace.♪
Stop it!
Get a hold of yourself Rat!
Water!
Some water please!
I heard that song again
That song?
What kind of song?
What do you mean?
Can you sing it to me?
Soul carried away by the wind♪
heart stolen away by a human.♪
Oh Earth♪
Oh stormy rains♪
Oh heavens Oh light♪
Shelter all within your embrace.♪
Shelter all within your embrace.♪
To live in your embrace.♪
Oh soul♪
Oh heart♪
Oh love Oh hope♪
Return here to find shelter.♪
Are you okay Rat?
Someone was still here to sing that song
Rat I believe fate has
returned you here with Sion.
Please tell us the truth.
As I said I want to save Safu.
And this is the second time
this has happened to Rat.
You knew my mother
you were involved in creating No. 6
and you know about the parasite bees.
And about that song as well.
Who are you? And just how much do you know?
It's your turn to talk!
Learn the truth Save your friend
Do you believe the two to be connected?
I don't know.
It was concealed hidden far away
but that's no excuse.
That's why
That's why I want to know
The truth behind this world!
You may come to regret your decision.
But I can live with it.
Elyurias.
Elyurias?
That is her name.
Not here Not here
Where'd it go damn it?
What'cha looking for?
Dogkeeper what are you doing here?
I need some information.
Don't make me laugh.
You can't afford my information.
It has to do with Sion.
What?
Is something wrong with Sion?
What happened?!
Let's barter.
I was a core member of the reconstruction project
formed to build No. 6's foundation.
The destruction wreaked by the multiple wars
had left us with six habitable areas.
We decided to build utopias
without conflict or poverty.
I
No we were all passionate about our mission.
But it didn't go as planned.
The elites who created this utopia
eventually began to flex their authority
eliminating those who defied them
those who resisted them
and even those who merely
expressed their doubts.
That is what No. 6 has become.
Sion and that Safu girl were
Karan?
Is something wrong?
Everything happened so quickly.
The city grew at an alarming rate
Into a monster armored by its prisons.
I had no idea what was happening
as I was still completely immersed in
researching the surrounding environment.
And then I met Elyurias
Who is this Elyurias?
The great sovereign The ruler
Absolute power beyond human capacity.
When I first saw her that was my reaction.
I became obsessed with her.
So I buried myself in research delivering
a sizable report to the higher-ups.
As a result
they tried to kill me.
By that point
No. 6 no longer hesitated to eliminate
anyone who might hinder it.
I had no choice but to escape
To this ravine that was outside the habitable zone.
So
Yes.
Everyone here was chased out of No. 6.
But the greed of No. 6 knew no bounds.
The land where I had met Elyurias
was home to the forest folk.
They respected nature
seeking only to live in peace.
They worshiped and revered Elyurias.
But No. 6 invaded their home to obtain her power!
They began burning the people living there.
Yes. Including Rat his parents his family
Rat is the sole survivor of the forest folk.
Rat
I have a question for you.
I don't know Elyurias.
I've never seen her before.
Never heard her voice before
You heard her song.
Elyurias is calling to you.
I don't know where she will lead you.
But if you seek revenge against No. 6
you too will be guilty of a massacre.
You will become the same as those you despise!
Sion come here.
All of my research is on this.
Information on the parasite bees
Elyurias the forest folk
Everything is here.
Please decipher this
once you've saved your friend.
Me?
Why?
I was the first host to a parasite bee in No. 6
and the first survivor.
This is the truth behind No. 6.
Do you find it hard to believe?
No I just don't know what to say
To be honest I also
had loved ones taken from me by No. 6.
My wife and son
She was a teacher.
She suddenly disappeared one day just as Sion did.
The only difference was that
they listed her as missing.
I can't believe this
Karan that's why I can understand your feelings.
I understand them so well it hurts
You're wrong Yoming!
This is a mistake
This isn't the way for us to make
up for what's been lost.
So
Join us.
Join our group.
Everyone has had family lovers
or friends taken from them.
By this false utopia that's nothing but
a cesspool of lies and deception.
Give it some thought.
Rat
You want to know why I hate No. 6?
Huh?
I was trying to give you some peace of mind.
Well I was expecting him to
provide some better information.
Nothing to be done there.
Let's grab a bite to eat and think this through.
Oh?
You were out rather late.
Dogkeeper! Rikiga!
Sion!
That was cold
You were going back to No. 6 alone?
That's too reckless!
Huh? But
If you want to see Karan
you should have said something to me.
Oh I was lying about that.
What?
I figured that would get your attention.
What?
You can have this back.
Ah!
I never said anything about involving that guy.
He'll only get in the way.
The correctional facility is too big
for me to handle by myself.
Fine then
It's not fine!
Explain.
What's going on?
What are you guys trying to
Didn't you hear Dogkeeper?
Sion and I plan to infiltrate
the correctional facility.
We need you and Dogkeeper to gather information
to make our job easier.
That's all.
You're going with him?
Are you insane? We're talking about No. 6.
And the correctional facility is as bad as it gets!
The facility houses some special organization
which holds the city together.
If we destroy the correctional facility
No. 6 will begin to fall apart.
The same No. 6 that crushed
your journalistic passion
Are you trying to insult me?
You aren't going to provoke me!
Then you can leave!
Huh?
You can cuddle up with that picture of yours
and dream about the past.
Dogkeeper! You're okay with this?
I've already made up my mind.
What's your decision?
Damn!
To hell with it!
Thank you.

Oh Mr. Rat.
You're back.
Thank you.
This can't be
"Mom thank you."
"I'll always love you."
I don't believe this
No
No Sion!
Sion!
Tomorrow is the Holy Day.
Yeah I can already see it.
The submissive citizens will begin to curse
and rage at this town's rotten guts!
Die if you like!
I want none of it.
Hold on
What about Sion?
We might be able to save her life.
Stage for Disaster
He was also a victim of No. 6.
I don't want you to change Sion.
