Deunan
This is the last of the uncontaminated ones.
Thank you.
Briareos
Briareos...
How long are we going to live like this?
Until we find our Eden, I guess.
Yeah.
What do you think we'll do once we find it?
Eat good food, work at a bar where you can drink on the job...
Maybe I'll marry someone.
Carl would cry tears of joy if he heard that.
Then again, I know this knife so much better than a kitchen knife.
Olympus

The hostages are as follows: four employees, seven guests.
The criminals number five.
Three are suspected of being cyborgs.
They're all being rounded up at 2-2.
A faction of the Human Liberation Front is claiming responsibility for the act.
They demand that their friends be set free from prison.
An exchange again?
3 through 6, you ready to go in?
3, ready.
4, ready.
6, ready.
5—
5, contact!
How long are we letting the regular police forces dance?
10-9, hold your position.
Negotiating isn't part of our job description.
10-9, roger.
Looks like you're good to go, rookie.
Hey, stop treating me like a kid!
11-3, some rabbits popped up carrying food.
10-9, I have visual for two!
Shift C to A. 4-5, 11-3, back up 10-9.
Roger. I hope you've got my back.
2-5, 8-1, stand ready at the hive.
Roger.
I'm ready.
Don't chase them too far.
Come on.
I'll catch them before they get to the hive.
Except that's against orders.
Rookie, leave it to us.
I'm fine.
Dia
Are you all right?
Yeah...
Thank you, Briareos!
Pay attention to your surroundings!
No harm done.
Partners look out for each other, right?
Executive Department
Analysis Room
Let me start with the outcome.
The contents of the case may possibly be Damysos parts of Argonaut origin.
Executive Department
Chairman Athena
The Argonauts, eh?
The Argonauts used to be under Poseidon's jurisdiction.
Did they neglect to pull them from active service?
Yes. The location where their base of operations sank could all too easily turn into a terrorist hideout,
given its value as a source of intel.
That must've been the trigger...
I can't believe this is what became of the Argonauts, famous for their mobile metropolis
and its economic power.
What? The artificial riverside?!
Where else?
We only have 72 hours off.
We have to stay close in case there's an emergency.
Oh well.
Deunan has some African blood in her.
When Deunan was ten, her mother cut across a white's path and was shot dead.
Her father, Carl, instructed her in the arts of combat after that.
They got you good.
Briareos...
Use this. It'll heal faster.
Thank you...
I want to run away from here.
Is it hard on you?
From sunrise to sunrise, all I ever learn is how to use guns and knives.
Things weren't like this when I was with Mother.
Let's go somewhere else together.
Somewhere peaceful, like Eden.
Do you think we'd find such a place?
I'm sure I can find one with you.
We can find it together.
Look, Briareos.
Waterfowl!
Hey, Briareos.
What's with your attitude?
Still in no mood for vacation?
It's about the mission this morning.
You're taking this time to lecture me?
You have to pay closer attention to your surroundings.
The regular police cordon is full of holes.
Members of the general public wouldn't be in the mission area otherwise.
Calm down.
It's simply a matter of chance.
Just because you were put into the new team—
Come on. We recovered the cases, didn't we?
I can't trust those guys.
Are you serious?
Virtually everyone on the team has more experience than us.
Put some trust into your teammates.
No way.
I trust their individual skill, but...
You're the only one I can truly trust.
You should quit ESWAT if that's your attitude.
You don't get it.
You have eight eyes, yet none of them are looking into me!
Screw Briareos!
I'm 'a party all night long!
Hitomi, lemme crash!
Hitomi?
Welcome, Deunan!
Let me introduce you.
This is Dia, a bioroid scientist from Poseidon.
Nice to meet you, Deunan.
I'm Dia Cadence.
Forget it!
I ain't goin' home.
Why are humans like this?
Hitomi
A bioroid like you wouldn't understand!
It's about Briareos again, isn't it?
Briareos?
A close friend of Deunan's.
He's a Hecaton-Kayle cyborg.
That dork of a Hecaton hasn't got a single clue about a woman's feelings.
Is she an ESWAT member?
You know her?
Yeah, kind of.
He has serious injuries all over his body from the blast.
Briareos! Briareos!
Briareos!
Sorry about this.
Don't worry, this isn't the first time.
Hitomi's a good girl.
Bioroids were designed to serve humans, after all.
How many humans are in Olympus?
We humans only account for one-fifth.
The bioroids make up Olympus' government too.
I never knew you lived so close.
Thank you so much for what happened earlier.
Just doing my job.
See you then.
Yes. Goodbye.
Briareos.
You're warm...
Mumbling in her sleep.
Deunan.
If only I'd been stronger...
If only I'd been able to be by your side...
There are indications that a black market trade in human resources will take place.
Capture the individuals on the list alive, under all circumstances.
Radio silence during the infiltration.
There will be no changes to the mission after briefing.
My armor just gets in the way!
Definitely. It's useless against hypersonic blades.
Unacceptable!
Don't be lazy. Just wear it.
It's against protocol.
Fine, fine.
Unrelenting as always.
Deunan, you can let the people here cover your back.
If you trust your teammates, you'll start seeing more than before.
"Squeeze the trigger before you see the target."
"Fire at everything you find suspicious."
Father taught me these things.
That's how I do things.
Forty seconds until the drop.
4-5, go to 11-3's position.
10-9, back up 11-3.
Roger.
Briareos' position is wide open!
Don't take your buddy for granted!
Confirming. Stay alert at all times.
10-9, drop.
10-9, over.
It's military-grade.
Well, the hardware is, but not the software.
11-3, Go! Go! Go!
This is ESWAT!
My, my.
I never would've expected this little cage to be the Poseidon chief's dressing room.
This is a harbor for international trade.
There is no difference to my country's territory.
You are violating our border.
The chairman gave the OK.
Regrettably, I am told your diplomatic immunity was suspended two seconds ago.
Poseidon dropped me?
What did Foreign Affairs Minister Aranagi say?!
We'll listen to your story in our reception room.
Your bodyguards will have to stand down as well.
ESWAT will confiscate your weapons.
Max.
That one's wanted worldwide.
Professor Leon.
Leon
He's the chief tech and contact for the Argonaut terrorists.
Vengeance cometh by my hand.
With hopes for an Eden where humans can live like humans, the Argonauts hereby secede from Poseidon!
A Hecaton-Kayle!
Briareos!
Briareos...
Go, Deunan.
Go.
I'm sure I can find one with you.
He's good...!
What's up with this armor?!
Sorry.
Our future needs you.
Our?
Yours, is it not?
Perhaps.
I can't believe you survived against that monster.
I got lucky.
Don't look at me like that.
Briareos...
Is this really our Eden?
