[00:08] S
    A Black Star Type 54...
[00:13] S
    That gun...
[00:15] S
    What...
[00:17] S
    What is it doing here now?
SIGN    Death Chaser
[02:28] S
    The meaning of strength...
[02:30] S
    The meaning of combat...
[02:35] S
    I thought if I kept watching him,
    watching Kirito...
[02:38] ---
    that I'd understand it someday.
[02:44] S
    I don't want to give up!
[03:19] S
    A grenade?
[03:42] S
    Kirito?
[03:50] S
    That's enough.
[03:52] S
    Leave me...
[04:09] S
    The horse is no good.
[04:12] S
    You can go off-road, but it's too hard to use.
[04:31] K
    Sinon, destroy that horse with your gun.
[04:38] S
    Okay, I'll try.
[04:53] S
    Why?
[04:59] S
    I can't do it.
[05:03] S
    Why?
[05:06] S
    I can't pull the trigger!
[05:13] K
    Sinon, hang on!
[05:30] S
    Can we escape?
[05:31] K
    Damn. Not yet...
[05:33] K
    Stay sharp!
[05:46] S
    Why?
[05:48] S
    He'll catch us.
[05:50] S
    Go faster!
[05:52] S
    Go! Go!
[06:17] S
    No!
[06:22] S
    No...
[06:23] S
    Save me! Save me!
[06:34] K
    Sinon, can you hear me?
[06:37] ---
    Sinon,
[06:38] K
    at this rate, he'll catch us.
[06:40] K
    Shoot him.
[06:42] S
    I can't!
[06:43] K
    You don't have to hit him.
[06:45] K
    Just distract him!
[06:48] S
    I can't!
[06:49] S
    He's... He's...
[06:51] K
    Then you drive!
[06:53] K
    I'll fire that gun!
[06:56] S
    Hecate...
[06:58] ---
    It's a part of me.
[06:59] S
    No one can use it but me.
[07:16] S
    I can't shoot.
[07:18] S
    I can't...
[07:19] S
    My finger won't move.
[07:21] S
    I can't fight anymore.
[07:24] K
    No, you can.
[07:25] K
    Everyone can fight.
[07:28] K
    It's just a choice of whether you should!
[07:33] S
    If I have a choice, I choose not to fight.
[07:38] S
    I don't want to suffer anymore.
[07:42] S
    I thought I could be stronger in this world,
[07:45] S
    but that was only an illusion.
[07:49] K
    I'll shoot with you.
[07:51] K
    So do it once...
[07:53] K
    Just move your finger.
[07:59] S
    I can't!
[08:00] S
    It's shaking too much to hit him.
[08:02] K
    It's okay.
[08:03] K
    The shaking will stop in five seconds.
[08:05] K
    Two, one, now!
[08:11] S
    How can he stay calm in a situation like this?
[08:16] S
    No, it isn't that he's calm...
[08:20] S
    He's just giving it all he has.
[08:22] S
    He's continually chosen to fight with all
    his strength instead of making excuses.
[08:28] S
    That's the source of his strength.
[08:42] S
    I missed.
[09:23] K
    Jeez.
[09:24] K
    It's so wide open, there's nothing to hide behind...
[09:33] S
    There's probably a cave over there.
[09:36] S
    If we go there, we can avoid the satellite scan.
[09:39] K
    Okay, let's go.
[09:53] K
    For now, let's avoid the next scan here.
[10:10] K
    He just appeared next to you, right?
[10:15] K
    Does he have the ability to make himself invisible?
[10:20] K
    And is that why he didn't show up on the scan?
[10:24] S
    I think so.
[10:26] S
    It's an ability called Metamaterial
    Optic-Distortion Camouflage.
[10:33] S
    We should be all right here.
[10:35] S
    The ground is rough sand,
[10:37] ---
    so even if he's invisible,
    he'll still make sound as he moves,
[10:40] S
    and we'll see his footsteps.
[10:42] S
    He can't just appear right next
     to us like last time.
[10:46] K
    I understand.
[10:47] K
    Then we need to keep our ears sharp.
[10:55] S
    Hey, is there
[10:59] ---
    any chance he died in that last explosion?
[11:03] K
    No,
[11:04] K
    right before the truck blew,
    I saw him jump off his robot horse.
[11:09] K
    I doubt he's unharmed,
[11:12] ---
    but I can't believe it killed him.
[11:15] S
    I see.
[11:18] S
    At the stadium, how were you able
    to come to save me so quickly?
[11:24] S
    You were on the outer rim, right?
[11:28] K
    I realized immediately that the Gunner X
[11:31] ---
    we were after wasn't Death Gun.
[11:35] S
    How?
[11:37] K
    It was definitely a woman.
[11:41] K
    That's when I knew we'd missed something big.
[11:46] K
    By the way, her real name isn't
    "Gunner X." It's "Musketeer X."
[11:53] K
    I defeated Musketeer-san,
[11:55] ---
    and I looked south from the stadium,
    and saw you lying on the road.
[12:00] K
    I thought you were in danger, so I
    borrowed her rifle and smoke grenades,
[12:05] K
    and ran while shooting and throwing.
[12:14] S
    If only I'd been more alert...
[12:19] K
    You don't need to blame yourself so much.
[12:23] K
    I didn't realize he was hiding, either.
[12:28] K
    If we'd changed positions, I would've been
    the one hit with the tranquilizer.
[12:33] K
    And then you would've saved me.
[12:37] K
    Right?
[12:39] S
    I'm being consoled by the man
    I thought was my rival...
[12:45] S
    He knows I'm broken and weak.
[12:49] S
    And he's trying to console me like a child.
[12:53] K
    Anyway, I'm going.
[12:55] K
    You should stay here and rest a while longer.
[12:58] K
    Honestly, I'd rather you logged out,
[13:01] ---
    but you can't do that during the tournament.
[13:08] S
    You're going to fight him...
[13:11] ---
    To fight Death Gun alone?
[13:13] K
    Yeah.
[13:14] K
    He's strong.
[13:16] K
    To be honest,
[13:17] ---
    it'll be tough to defeat him without
    his firing at least once.
[13:21] K
    If he points that gun at me again,
[13:23] K
    I might abandon you and run.
[13:26] K
    So I can't drag you into this anymore.
[13:31] S
    You're afraid of him, too.
[13:34] K
    Yeah, I am.
[13:37] K
    A while ago,
[13:39] ---
    I might've been able to fight him,
    even if it meant I could die.
[13:43] K
    But now there are a lot of things I have to protect.
[13:48] K
    I can't die,
[13:49] K
    and I don't want to.
[13:51] S
    Things you want to protect?
[13:53] K
    Yeah.
[13:54] K
    In the virtual world and in the real one.
[13:58] S
    Then just stay in this cave and hide.
[14:03] S
    During BoB, you can't log out on your own.
[14:06] S
    But as soon as it's just us and another one,
[14:08] S
    we can kill ourselves and let that person win.
[14:12] S
    That'll end the tournament.
[14:14] K
    I get it.
[14:16] K
    That's one option...
[14:18] K
    But I can't do that.
[14:21] K
    If we just wait for the tournament to end,
[14:25] K
    there's no telling how many others
    he'll point that gun at.
[14:29] S
    Oh.
[14:32] S
    You really are strong.
[14:39] S
    I won't run.
[14:43] S
    I'll go outside and fight that man, too.
[14:46] K
    No, Sinon.
[14:48] K
    If he shoots you, you could really die.
[14:51] K
    I'm a 100% melee type,
[14:54] K
    but you aren't!
[14:55] K
    He can turn invisible.
    If he gets close and surprises you,
[14:59] K
    you're in far more danger than I am.
[15:02] S
    I don't care if I die.
[15:06] S
    Back there, I was so scared...
[15:09] S
    I was so scared of dying.
[15:11] S
    I was weaker than five years ago.
[15:14] S
    Pathetic. Screaming.
[15:17] S
    I'd rather die than live like that.
[15:23] K
    Of course you're scared...
[15:25] K
    There's no one who isn't afraid to die.
[15:27] S
    I don't want to be scared.
[15:30] S
    I'm tired of living in fear.
[15:33] S
    I won't ask to come with you.
[15:38] S
    I can fight on my own!
[15:43] K
    You'll fight alone, and you'll die alone.
[15:45] K
    Is that what you're trying to say?
[15:48] S
    Yeah.
[15:48] S
    I think that's my fate.
[15:53] S
    Let me go.
[15:54] S
    I have to go!
[15:56] K
    You're wrong.
[15:58] K
    No one dies alone.
[16:01] K
    When someone dies, the part of them that
    lives inside someone else also dies.
[16:06] K
    You already live inside me.
[16:09] S
    That's impossible.
[16:12] S
    I've never given myself to anyone else.
[16:16] K
    We're already involved with one another!
[16:21] S
    Then...
[16:23] ---
    Then...
[16:24] S
    You protect me for the rest of my life!
[16:34] S
    You don't know anything!
[16:36] S
    You can't do anything!
[16:38] S
    Don't say that!
[16:40] S
    This... This is my battle, and no one else's!
[16:45] S
    Even if I lose,
[16:46] S
    even if I die...
[16:47] S
    No one has the right to blame me!
[16:53] S
    Or will you carry that burden forever?
[16:57] S
    Will you... Will you...
[17:02] ---
    hold the hands of a murderer?!
[17:12] Flashback
    Murderer!
[17:14] Flashback
    Murderer!
[17:15] Flashback
    Murderer!
[17:17] Flashback
    Murderer!
[17:18] Flashback
    Murderer!
[17:19] Flashback
    You murderer!
[17:21] Flashback
    Don't touch me, murderer!
[17:23] Flashback
    You'll get blood on me!
[17:25] Flashback
    Murderer!
[17:26] Flashback
    Murderer!
[17:27] Flashback
    Murderer!
[17:28] Flashback
    Murderer!
[17:58] Flashback
    I hate you!
[17:59] Flashback
    I hate you so much!
[18:21] Flashback
    I hate you, but...
[18:24] Flashback
    Let me lean against you for a while.
[18:34] Flashback
    I...
[18:37] ---
    killed someone.
[18:42] Flashback
    Five years ago,
[18:44] ---
    there was a robbery at a post office
    in a small Tohoku town.
[18:49] Flashback
    The media said the robber died
     when his gun misfired.
[18:55] Flashback
    But actually, I was there, and I stole his gun.
[19:00] Flashback
    And I shot him to death.
[19:03] K
    Five years ago?
[19:04] S
    I was eleven.
[19:06] S
    Ever since then, whenever I see a gun,
     I throw up or pass out.
[19:12] S
    Whenever I see a gun, I can see
    the face of the man I killed.
[19:19] S
    And I get scared... So scared.
[19:22] K
    But...
[19:23] S
    Yeah.
[19:25] S
    But in this world, I've been okay.
[19:27] S
    So I thought...
[19:30] S
    If I could be the strongest person in this world,
[19:33] S
    I could be stronger in the real world.
[19:36] S
    I could forget that memory...
[19:39] S
    But back there, when Death Gun attacked me,
[19:44] S
    I was scared.
[19:46] ---
    At some point, I stopped being Sinon.
[19:49] S
    I was back to being the real me.
[19:53] S
    I'm scared to die.
[19:55] S
    But... But...
[19:57] S
    Living in fear hurts just as much.
[20:02] S
    If I run from Death Gun and those
    memories, without fighting,
[20:07] S
    I'll become even weaker than I was.
[20:10] S
    So...
[20:11] S
    So...
[20:13] K
    I...
[20:15] K
    I...
[20:16] ---
    killed someone, too.
[20:21] K
    I told you before that I knew Death Gun,
[20:24] ---
    that guy in the cape, from another game, right?
[20:28] K
    The name of that game
[20:31] ---
    was Sword Art Online.
[20:36] S
    Then you really are...
[20:39] K
    Yeah.
[20:39] K
    What they call a SAO survivor.
[20:42] K
    So is Death Gun.
[20:44] K
    He was a member of a murder
    guild named Laughing Coffin,
[20:49] K
    a red player.
[20:52] K
    A raid-sized party was formed to imprison them.
[20:58] K
    I was one of the members.
[21:04] K
    The information was leaked,
    and we were ambushed instead.
[21:08] K
    In the horrible chaos that followed, I killed
    two LC members with my own hands.
[21:22] K
    But I'd forced myself to forget what I'd done.
[21:27] K
    Until yesterday, when I met that man, Death Gun.
[21:32] S
    Then Death Gun was a member of that
    guild you fought, Laughing Coffin?
[21:38] K
    Yeah.
[21:39] K
    He has to be one of the ones who
    survived and was imprisoned.
[21:44] K
    So...
[21:46] ---
    I have to finish things with him here,
[21:51] K
    in this world.
