Asuna ShirokiDisturbance detected above the government building. Public safety is... Their weapon has been deployed...
Asuna Shiroki...with Shota Kuroi piloting. It appears to be headed for the government building. We were... too late...!
Dr. SimmonsI won't allow it. Such an ugly machine...
Dr. SimmonsI quit because I couldn't stand the idea of being forced to make something like that.
Dr. SimmonsThe Dr. Yuki I respect would never.
PlayerDr. Yuki is the man who adopted me.
PlayerYou seem to know a lot about my adoptive father...
PlayerHe's my adoptive father... He disappeared on me.
Dr. SimmonsWhat are you talking about? If that's some sort of joke, it went over my head.
Dr. SimmonsDr. Yuki is an anime character.
Dr. SimmonsHe's from a series I will always love, "Agent Alpha."
Dr. SimmonsDon't tell me you haven't seen that anime? You're seriously missing out.
Dr. SimmonsDr. Yuki disappears during an experiment, and his child, the protagonist, goes looking for him.
Dr. SimmonsThat's the gist of the plot. But I can talk about that anime for hours.
Dr. SimmonsThat series means so much to me. It's the reason I became a scientist to begin with.
Dr. SimmonsWhat's wrong? You don't look so good.
Dr. SimmonsTruly deplorable... What would Dr. Yuki say if he existed?
JunomonWhile bound by Chronomon's rage... I provided various things to the humans.
JunomonDigimon and their special structural data... all of which went into the making of that weapon.
Dr. SimmonsKuga was an obedient little lapdog. Not a shred of pride in that one, I'm afraid...
JunomonThe weapon is beyond the ability of anyone to control now. For you see...
Junomon...it, too, is now an incarnation of Chronomon's bitter rage. The Digimon core was installed for this reason.
JunomonChronomon's aim is, in the end, a clash of forces... The space-time rift born from the war will open the sealed door.
JunomonAnd then you and Chronomon shall meet... The victims of this conflict are but offerings to bring this about.
Dr. SimmonsIf war itself is the point... then Chronomon probably doesn't care if it's Digimon or humans who are dying.
Dr. SimmonsDestruction ad nauseum, all for a selfish purpose... If we don't stop that weapon, so much blood will be spilled...
JunomonI will try to connect the gate to somewhere near the site. Please let me know when you are ready.

AegiomonInori... Where the heck did you go?!
AegiomonI've gone back over and over and over... but I still can't save you...!
AegiomonI can't find a future where you're safe...!
AegiomonIt's like... the gods have made up their minds about you disappearing.
AegiomonHow many more times do I have to go back before I can see your smile again...?
AegiomonI won't give up... no matter how many times I fail. I made you a promise, didn't I? A promise to protect you...!
AegiomonInori... Inori... Inori...! Inori Inori Inori Inori INORI INORI INORI!!

OperatorIt's been a while.
OperatorI'm sure you've realized by now...
Operator...realized you aren't a normal human being.
OperatorThe one who created you must be quite satisfied.
OperatorYou've done well to fulfill your role thus far.
OperatorTo honor your achievements, allow me to tell you who you are.
OperatorSince Aegiomon disappeared, you've been mistaken for the Great Guardian...
OperatorI'm sure you can understand why.
The Cycle of Time 5 4 lines
OperatorYour creator... is the higher being that was challenged by Chronomon to battle.
OperatorThis higher being's name is Homeostasis.
OperatorChronomon's plan has disrupted the equilibrium between worlds and threatened their very existence.
OperatorYou were given a role to eliminate anyone who upsets natural law.
The Cycle of Time 6 5 lines
OperatorThe higher being chose a certain existence to act as a base when giving you life.
OperatorThat being was Aegiomon, or the "dark shadow."
OperatorAegiomon had been scattered across countless timelines after traveling through time again and again.
OperatorYour existence is based on the dark shadow in one of those timelines.
OperatorThere is a clear reason why that method was used.
The Cycle of Time 7 6 lines
OperatorThe higher being has a strong aversion to directly and excessively intervening in the world it watches over.
OperatorTo minimize its influence, it chose to take advantage of these dark shadows.
OperatorWhat the higher being hoped for was a sort of "self-purifying effect" on the world.
OperatorAegiomon, who lost someone important to him and who was driven by pain, disrupted the laws of time.
OperatorAnd thus the higher being tasked him with righting his own wrongs.
OperatorIt took an instance of a dark shadow from one of these timelines and crafted him into your form.
The Cycle of Time 8 5 lines
OperatorADAMAS, your personality, your memories... were all prepared for you to help you fulfill your mission efficiently.
OperatorThat goes for me as well. I only exist in your head.
OperatorYou are the agent in charge of maintaining the world's equilibrium.
OperatorWhen establishing your character, we used some of the memories of the dark shadow.
OperatorIt was the wish of the dark shadow for us to do so.
The Cycle of Time 9 8 lines
OperatorThe dark shadow's wish... In other words, it was Aegiomon's wish.
OperatorAegiomon wanted to reunite Inori Misono with her little brother.
OperatorHe tried to accomplish that by taking her brother's place.
OperatorInori's little brother was a big fan of a certain character. He often liked to pretend he was that character...
OperatorYour appearance, your memories...
OperatorThey were created in part from the memories of Inori's little brother.
OperatorThe reason you're being mistaken for Aegiomon is because you were originally born from him.
OperatorAs the time of integration approached, your form was naturally returning to that of Aegiomon's.
The Cycle of Time 10 8 lines
OperatorChronomon gave birth to Aegiomon. Aegiomon gave birth to countless dark shadows.
OperatorAnd you were created from one of those dark shadows.
OperatorLike the cycle of time, equilibrium is maintained when all things are connected.
OperatorYes, all things in this world are nothing but gears of time. However, that in itself is no cause for dismay.
OperatorWhat should cause alarm is when those gears go awry, stopping the proper flow of time.
OperatorThat is exactly what happened to those dark shadows... to Aegiomon.
OperatorWhen time moves forward and we can progress onward...
Operator...we can choose our future. That is where all our hopes lie.

AegiomonI see. So that's how it is, huh...?
AegiomonI get it now.
AegiomonA me that lost it from losing Inori turned the world all crazy, huh.
AegiomonThat's... the truth behind the Shinjuku Inferno.
AegiomonAll of that happened because I have the power to alter time.
AegiomonMe going back in time prevented time from moving forward. The world's time just stopped.
AegiomonI probably... never should've used this power of mine...
AegiomonYou came to help me, didn't you?
AegiomonYou came to encourage me, to tell me to move forward and restart the flow of time.
AegiomonBut is that really what you want?
AegiomonIf I move forward and stop trying to repeat time...
Aegiomon...the dark shadows will disappear. That probably means you'll cease to exist, too...
PlayerWhy do you suppose I exist in this form?
PlayerDon't you have someone you want to see again?
PlayerThat's the reason for everything that's happened so far.
AegiomonOkay...
AegiomonI'm sorry...
Aegiomonbut...
Aegiomon...thank you!

JupitermonI'm sorry for keeping you waiting.
JupitermonI need you to lend me—Jupitermon—your strength.
JupitermonLet us take down Chronomon and move forward...
Jupitermon...forward into the future.
JunomonWhat a truly divine sight...!
JunomonI still remember your warmth when you were just an egg. Being able to see you in this form has made it all worth it.
JunomonChronomon is linked to that weapon the humans made.
Junomon...so it is trying to destroy the world's very foundation—time itself.
JunomonAnd when he—the Keeper of Time—disappears, his goal will be complete.
JunomonSo, in a sense, defeat is in fact what Chronomon truly seeks.
JupitermonI think I understand a little of how Chronomon feels.
JupitermonI felt the same way when I lost Inori.
JupitermonI couldn't care less what happened to a world without Inori. That's what most likely caused the Shinjuku Inferno.
JupitermonBut I can say this now. I was wrong.
JupitermonYet there was someone encouraging me. That bond finally made me realize...
JupitermonI can't just keep living in the past. I have to choose the future.
JupitermonSo let us defeat Chronomon and move forward!
