Episode 34: It's Name is EpyonEpisode 34: It's Name is Epyon Treize: Don't die. Fight, and live. You... all of you mustn't die yet. Title: Its Name is Epyon Heero: Is this the end for me? ...Relena. Suicidal Pilot: Treize Faction, banzai! Heero: Hey! Suicidal Pilot: Take care of... Treize-sama... Dermail's underling: General Dermail. Dermail: What? Are you coming to report the destruction of the Treize Faction? Dermail's underling: Uh, no, actually... Dermail: We sent out all that firepower... How could they have survived? Dermail's underling: Gundam. Dermail: What? Dermail's underling: Gundam Zero One was there. We lost half the Mobile Dolls and the battle appears to have fallen into confusion. If it keeps on like this, it's just a matter of time before Treize Kushrenada escapes his confinement. What shall we do, General? Dermail: Send out all the forces we have on the Earth. Have them proceed to Luxembourg with orders to attack the Treize Faction and the Gundams. Dermail's underling: Yes, sir. Dermail: After all, Treize is just a fascinating image to the soldiers. Just like the Gundams are used to stir up rebellion. But Treize and the Gundams must not become allies. Security computer: Your identity will be confirmed by a fingerprint check. Please state your name. Heero: Heero Yuy. Security computer: Data confirmed. Please enter. Treize: Thank you for coming, Heero Yuy. A messenger of the peace that I love. I welcome you with all my heart. Heero: Are you Treize? Treize: I think you know. Well. Shoot me. In order to bring a conclusion to the fighting. Treize: What's wrong? The war will not be over as long as I live in this world. Didn't you come here because you think that? Heero: I want to hear why you let me in. Treize: I input that in the computer some months ago. I thought that one day you or another Gundam pilot would come here and we could talk. Heero: I have no interest in you. Treize: Of course not. If you are thinking only of the peace of the earth, no, of all of space including the earth. Heero: I don't think of anything except fighting. Peace is only the result that comes after war. Treize: Then I'll ask. Who is your enemy? Me? OZ? The Romafeller Foundation? Or those faraway colonies that betrayed you? Heero: My enemy is anyone who stands in front of me and tries to kill me. Treize: There is no end to fighting like that but... It's... a matter of fate. Heero: Probably. But I will fight. There's nothing I can do but keep on fighting. And it doesn't matter to me when I die. Treize: You don't have any desire to change(?) your fate. In that respect, Relena Peacecraft is stronger than you. Treize: You can see that there is a limit to how long you can keep fighting. But the reality is, no one can change the flow of the times. Heero: You could change it. You used to have leadership in your grasp. You just have to do the same again. Treize: I have no desire to do so. Heero: I see. Treize: Speaking with you was the highlight of my life. Treize: And I came to understand. My death and yours must occur together. Let us meet God together, looking into one another's eyes.(?) Heero: You're a poor loser, aren't you. But that's fine with me. Treize: A soldier who doesn't hate death? I think that's the proper way for proper human beings to fight. But now, you are losing your enemies. Just like me. My fighting is already over. Heero: It's not over. Right now, soldiers are dying for you. There's no way your fight is over. If something's finished, no, if something must be finished, it's this futile, pathetic resistance of mine. Treize: Heero Yuy. Please don't sadden me further. You must not be the same as I. Treize: Here is something that will guide you in the way you should live from now on. Scarecrow 5: This is Scarecrow 5. Wing Zero confirmed. We will now begin its destruction. Leo pilot: This many should do the trick. It's enough to destroy three Leos. Scarecrow 5: Right. Go back to your Leo. Howard: They're really going to blow that up, huh? Zechs: Of course. For OZ, no, for the Romafeller Foundation, anything with the name of Gundam has the image of being an obstacle to their rule. Howard: Hn. Shall we show them the real value of a Gundam? Scarecrow 5: Okay. We will now explode the Wing Zero. Leo pilot: An object is heading this way at high speed! Scarecrow 5: What? Leo pilot: Tallgeese! The Lightning Count is here! Scarecrow 5: Shit! Scarecrow 5: This is Scarecrow 5! Tallgeese is here!! Zechs: Why do you run from the fight? Have the Mobile Dolls made soldiers forget how to fight? Or is my thinking out of date? Howard: Zechs, be careful. Mobile Dolls are rapidly approaching. Zechs: They foresaw that I would come here? Zechs: It's only natural to use such tactics in a battle that relies on Mobile Dolls. [Commercial.] Zechs: Mobile Doll reinforcements? They're well prepared. Zechs: Fresh forces? Zechs: I see. It seems they have a high opinion of me. Scarecrow 5: [Something incomprehensible] Lightning Count! Scarecrow 5: Shit. Zechs: Tallgeese! It's thanks to you that I have been able to fight this well. Zechs: I thank you with all my heart. Zechs: I hate to part from you. Zechs: But I must keep on fighting.(?) Zechs: Farewell, Tallgeese. Zechs: My beloved machine, rest in peace. Scarecrow 5: It self-destructed? Does he think he can escape? I won't let him get away with that! Scarecrow 5: Oh, I see. He intends to switch to the Wing Zero. Hn. I believe the Lightning Count is angry. Scarecrow 5: I'll order the Mobile Dolls to change their target. Scarecrow 5: No, I'll let him have a more fitting death. Scarecrow 5: Spend your afterlife cursing the weakness of your rebellion! Scarecrow 5: This is Scarecrow 5. Mission accomplished. Wing Zero, and Tallgeese as well, have been destroyed, and Zechs Marquise has been ki- Zechs: It seems that for the Wing Zero, that was too small an amount of explosives. Scarecrow 5: What?! Zechs: But... This reaction speed! This fighting ability! Howard: I wonder if even such a perfect soldier as you can pilot that terrible machine without it making a fool of you. I pray that the road you have chosen is the correct one, Zechs. No, Mirialdo. You are Peacecraft, the guidepost to peace. Heero: It's a new type? Treize: I've had it named Epyon. This machine will show its pilot the face of his enemy, and it will show him his own future. There was no future for me that I must choose. If you pilot this machine and experience the same result, then let us die together. Heero: What did you build this thing for? Treize: I thought that continuous fighting was humanity's reason for living. But I could not find an answer there. My battles are over, but I must discover a reason for the act of fighting (?). Therefore, I built this Mobile Suit. I thought a Gundam would be most appropriate. Also, I wanted to grant a blessing to the victors and the defeated. This is a machine that makes that possible. Heero: You wanted to build a god? Treize: Certainly. For a pilot whose will to fight is pure, this machine is able to erase all uncertainty. A soldier who is absolutely sure is sublimely beautiful. In a sense, you can say that soldier is very near to being a god. Heero: I don't believe in gods. Treize: Show me your fighting and your future. Treize: Heero Yuy. I'll just give you one piece of advice. You must not win, in that machine. Gundam Epyon is not a weapon. I hope you will return here defeated. Heero: I hope the same thing. Treize: Heero. Until you kill me, I don't give you permission to die. For that reason, I've disabled the self-destruct system. Treize Faction Pilot: Shit! The enemy forces never get any less! Dermail, you [something incomprehensible]. Treize Faction Pilot: Don't give up! The only thing that has meaning is to keep on fighting! Some pilot: Something's approaching rapidly from the direction of the castle.(?) Treize Faction Pilot: New forces? Treize Faction Pilot: Is that also... a Gundam? Some pilot: [Something incomprehensible.] Treize Faction Pilot: Hey, is that... an ally? Treize Faction Pilot: It's coming! Heero: My enemy... No, that's not right... It's making me fight. Treize Faction Pilot: Now! Go! Heero: But is it them? No... Heero: It's the same. This is the same as the Epyon. Heero: Destroy everything. Heero: Everyone who fights is my enemy! Relena: Heero! Promise me! Suicidal Pilot: Take care of... Treize-sama. Treize: There was no future for me that I must choose. Heero: My... my future... my death... Treize: Did you see it? Your future. Heero: ....... Treize: I see. Well then, shall we begin? Heero: Treize... I have... no right...
