I do not own Elfen Lied.
Alas.

Everything will be alright. It will all end soon. Just a little longer, I promise. And then I'll let you meet your mother.
But first, I want to say a few things. First, I'm sorry. I'm sorry you had to live like that. I'm sorry you were born like this. I'm sorry I accepted this job. I'm sorry I couldn't have gotten you out. And I'm So sorry you never met your mother.
She loved you so much. She loved you, and she saved you from what I was going to do. And because she loved you, she saved you, and she died to do it.
If I had never got this job, if you had been born human, you would have grown up so loved. You would have had the perfect childhood. I would have taken you to your first day of school, and your mother would have been there to help you make cookies on Christmas Eve.
I'm so sorry.
You're looking at me now as though you don't care. But I know you would, if you had ever seen the real thing. If you had ever experienced it. And now . . .
Mariko, hold on to me now. Close your eyes. And whatever you do . . .
Don't Look Back.
