History
Edit
Rockwell Hill
Edit
During the Claymore Rebellion arc at Organization Headquarters, the shattered remains of Hysteria barely clings to life. Hysteria's soliloquy describes two Claymore warriors that fought Hysteria on Rockwell Hill—the then No. 4, Rosemary. And a mysterious, smiling warrior, resembling Teresa, a new single-digit that is never named. The smiling warrior's attack weakened Hysteria, allowing No. 4 to deliver the coup de grace.[19]
Godar Hill
Edit
Campfire meeting
Edit
One night years later, a Man in Black, Orsay, meets Teresa. He gives Teresa, now warrior No. 1, a new assignment—a black card belonging to Rosemary, the former No. 4 that rose to No. 1, then demoted to No. 2.[20]
Rendezvous
Edit
At sunrise, Teresa reaches Godar Hill. Rosemary awaits. With her sword, she attacks Teresa.[21]
Jealousy
Edit
Rosemary, angry at losing her No. 1 status to Teresa, awakens into a 3-jaw crustacean-like awakened being. She tells Teresa that she awoke before sending her black card. Teresa says that she is relieved. She was afraid it was her fault that Rosemary awoke. [22]
Eventually, Teresa kills Rosemary.[23]
Aftermath
Edit
When Orsay sees Teresa's disheveled state, he asks if Rosemary awoke. She says no and that Rosemary was euthanized as normal.[24]
Additional details
Edit
- In the original Japanese version of Extra Scene 1, Teresa says she had no regular contact with Rosemary
- In the VIZ Media translation of Extra Scene 1, Teresa says she never met Rosemary,[25] despite fighting together on Rockwell Hill
