Aya: "No!! I can't change into Ceres now!!" Aya: "I don't want to fight Tooya!!" Aya: "Don't come!!" Suzumi: [Instead of fighting fate...] Suzumi: [You should accept it, and face it.] |
| Page 101 |
|
Aya: Accept it, don't fight it. Aya: I'm okay with Ceres. Aya: I don't have to be afraid. Aya: Refusing and running away are the same thing. Aya: Remember what Yuuhi said about feelings not changing, no matter what form I take. [Tooya appears behind her.] |
| Page 102 |
|
[Tooya turns Ceres around and points the knife at her. They stare at each other.] [Tooya puts his knife away.] Tooya: "I guess no matter how hard Aya resists, you will still ignore it." Ceres: "You're not going to capture me? Isn't that your job?" Tooya: "What about you? Not going to kill me? Isn't everyone who sides with the Mikage family your enemy?" [Tooya sits down on the bench.] [Hmmmm...aren't all these people walking by noticing anything amiss here?... O.o ] |
| Page 103 |
|
Ceres: "...yesterday, why didn't you embrace Aya? Aren't men all the same?" Tooya: "I can't... do something as irresponsible as that." Ceres: "You're a strange man... you... who are you?" Tooya: "I want to know the answer to your question, too, so I chose to join the Mikage family--I'm not afraid of loneliness... I just want to... confirm my true identity." Ceres: "To confirm whether or not you're a 'normal human being'?" |
| Page 104 |
|
Ceres: "Mikage... that dirty-minded family... Do you really think they'll give you what you want? They'll just play you like a toy!" Ceres: "For Aya's benefit, I suggest you leave them as soon as possible... haven't you suffered enough under the present condition?" Tooya: "It doesn't matter what method is used, as long as things get cleared up for me... as long as I'm normal... if I'm a normal man... then I can accept Aya... but if I'm not..." Ceres: "...there's one thing I can't make any sense out of..." Ceres: "I always have the feeling that I've known you from long ago." Ceres: "Is it my memory or Aya's? Your name, you... a long time ago... somewhere..." |

[Tooya's celular phone rings.] Tooya: ! [He takes it out.] Voice on cellphone: "Sensei, please come to the isolation ward right away! One of the patients is.." Nurse: "Kyouko! Kyouko! Calm down!!" Kyouko's Mother: "Kyouko! Kyouko! Calm down!!" [Kyouko's mother tries to comfort her.] [Light bulbs shatter] Yuuhi: "WAAAHH!!" [Kyouko tightens her grasp on Yuuhi.] |
| Page 106 |
|
Yuuhi: "Kyouko-san!! Woudl you please let go of me? You're hurting me..." [Kyouko looks up... with a rotting face. Yuuhi's eyes pop out.] Yuuhi: "Kyaaa!!! Please forgive me!! I'm just a random extra!!" Yuuhi: "Ouuu.. chhh..." Kyuu [hiding behind a wall]: "What are you saying? You're the main character!!" Yuuhi: "Replace me right away! I'll just be a supporting character!" Kyuu: "How about being the main character of a High school comedy?" Yuuhi: "What the hell are you saying?!" [Another patient's door slides open.] |
| Page 107 |
|
[A patient walks out and spits out blood. Yuuhi screams.] [Ceres and Tooya come into the hallway.] Ceres: "Yuuhi!" Nurse: "Sensei! Until now, things were running smoothly. Things like electric currents were shooting through the walls, blocking us..." Tooya: "Ah, step back." |
| Page 108 |
|
Tooya: "....I wonder what kind of energy it was?" Ceres: "...It's some electric current like power, not mine--" Ceres: !! Yuuhi: "...Ceres!?" [Kyouko falls down.] Nurse: "Kyouko?!" Kyouko's Mother: "Kyouko?!" Ceres: "...The power has disappeared..." Nurse: "Shimoji-san?! Sasamine-san?!" Tooya: ... [Tooya checks Kyouko's eyes.] Tooya: ... [Tooya shakes his head. Kyouko's mother covers her mouth.] Kyouko's Mother: "...ah...ah..." |
| Page 109 |
|
Kyouko's Mother: "Kyouko! Wahh!!" Yuuhi: !!" [Yuuhi grabs Tooya's collar.] Tooya: "...What? Go ahead, say what you'd like... ask me why I'm working for the Mikages as their dog." [Yuuhi tries not to puke in front of Tooya.] Yuuhi: "THE BATHROOM... WHERE IS IT?!" Tooya: "...Go down that passage to the right, and it's the last left." [Bwahahhahahahahah!!!! oh, poooooor Yuuhi~!] [in Tokyo] |

[At the Mikage Company. In Alex's lab.] Alex: "Ah--that was tiring, wasn't it. Aki-san? How're you feeling, laddie?" Aki: "The worst I've ever felt---!" [Aki takes off a visor.] Aki: "I can't remember anything about my past life!" Alex: "But somehow, Aya-san was able to change into her past life!" Aki: "Ceres is different. That woman uses a curse to steal Aya's body without her permission, and holds a major grudge against the Mikage family!!" Alex: "Nonono, the one who gave the lass her grudge was you, Aki-san..." Aki: "Whose side are you on?!" |
| Page 111 |
|
Aki: "...What is my past life, anyawy?" Aki: "It's because of it... that... I can't be with Aya..." Alex: "...Aki-san." Alex: "Is something bothering you?" Aki: "OF COURSE THERE IS! I'VE ONLY BEEN HERE FOR TWO MONTHS, AND THAT'S ALREADY TOO MUCH FOR ME!! Aki: "...ah... no, it's not that... but I'm just taking it all out on you. You must be upset, too." Aki: "I'm sorry." [Alex takes off his glasses.] Alex: "Buuut, Aki-san, it seems like it would be hard not being able to meet a girlfriend." Alex: "It's okay... compared with your problems, mine are just 'work.' |
| Page 112 |
|
Alex: "That's all." Alex: "In all honesty, I have an innocent interest in finding the hagoromo." Aki: "...come to think of it, why are you working here?...where were you born?" Alex: "Me? The U.K.! 20 years ago, I was born in Scotland." Alex: "When I was 10 years old, I moved to America... and later, entered MIT--then after that, I worked with Mikage International's American branch." Alex: "That's where I met the Chief." Aki: "You mean Kagami-san?" Alex: "I'm interested in the Mikage Tennyo's family line... in Scotland, we also have a similar fairy tale... ours is about a woman who lived on the other side of the sea, whose dress was stolen..." |
| Page 113 |
|
Alex: "There are ancient legends all over the world. I wonder what the Tennyo are... The Chief and I want to solve this mystery." Aki: "...and so you came to Japan...? Then your familly? Your friends in Scotland?" Alex: "...I haven't seen them in years. Studying and researching are more fun, you see... So I really don't need them." Aki: "...You should contact them... they must be worried about you." Aki: "What's more important than ancient mysteries... is where you were born, and who you've met. That's what I think." Aki: "Textbooks and machines... aren't things you can laugh and cry with." Alex: ... Alex: "...You may be right..." Alex: "That's a good way of thinking... The president, your grandfather... His condition is getting worse." Aki: "Huh?! Why didn't anyone tell me?!" |
| Page 114 |
|
Alex: "The Chief's taking a leisurely visit over at the Mikage household and will come back in a bit." Alex: "Wait in your room for him. Listen to what he has to say! Don't worry; everything will be fine!" Aki: "Really... I didn't know... that Grandpa was..." [Aki walks into Kagami's office. He stops in front of Ceres' picture.] |
| Page 115 |
|
[Aki walks up to the picture and starts feeling its surface with his hand. It stops at Ceres' mouth.] |
| Page 116 |
|
[Kagami comes into the room. His eyes widens in shock as he sees Aki kissing Ceres' picture.] |
| Page 117 |
|
[Aki opens his eyes.] Aki: ?! [In shock, Aki covers his mouth. He turns deep red and sweats.] [Aki turns away from the picture.] |
| Page 118 |
|
[Aki is surprised to find a smiling Kagami behind him.] Aki: !!! [At the hospital.] Nurse: "Akagi-san's breathing has just stopped--" Nurse #2: "Sasaki-san is in critical condition, too." Tooya: "This makes... 4 people down..." |
| Page 119 |
|
[Ceres holds up a necklace.] Ceres: "...This ornament called a 'choker' is something that Aya is very fond of." Ceres: "Please take it." Ceres: "If you want to return to Aya's side, take off the thing you now wear on your neck and replace it with this." Tooya: "---why..." [Tooya takes the necklace.] Ceres: "Do not be mistaken; it has nothing to do with how I think of you. Aya does not care what you are. If you can answer to the Way You Are Now, it is good." |
| Page 120 |
|
Ceres: "Face Aya. It will be amusing seeing what kind of faithfulness you and Yuuhi have for her." Kyuu: "But, in the rivalry for love, Yuuhi..." Kyuu: "....is armed with a puke-bowl, looking very pathetic, lying on his deathbed." Yuuhi: "I'm just resting! What do you mean by lying on my deathbed!" Kyuu: "But still, the 7 isolation patients keep dying one after another--!" Yuuhi: "Son of a bitch! It must be from those drugs they took. Those Mikages!! They're doing such nasty things." Yuuhi: "So there are just 3 left... Akiyama Kami, Yoshizuka Hirokazu, Yuuhi: "...Kuruma... Shouta---" |

[Chidori jumps on top of Yuuhi.] Chidori: "YUUHI-KUN! WHAT'S UP?!" Kyuu: "Chidori-san, right now, your greeting caused a ride up to the top of Yuuhi's stomach." Chidori: "Here! I brought you a gift!" [Chidori takes out a seafood flavor pizza.] Chidori: "O-KONOMIYAKI! Ta-dah!" {barfing noises} [Yuuhi pukes into the bowl while Chidori snaps away with her camera.] Chidori: "Oh yeah! I was coming through the passage, and saw Aya-san!" |
| Page 122 |
|
Chidori: "She's become exactly like the one in the picture, so I recognized her immediately." Chidori: "Because she was with a super-hot doctor and looked pretty hot with him, I couldn't interupt them!" Chidori: "He must be the doctor Shouta was talking about.." Yuuhi: "CERES AND TOOYA WERE DOING WHAT?!" Ceres: "Nothing, really." [Ceres walks up to them.] Chidori: "Aya-san!" Ceres: "Well then... shall I fly? Together with that boy--" [At the hospital rooftop.] |
| Page 123 |
|
//doki doki doki// Shouta: "Onee-chan, are you sure I'll be okay?" Chidori: "You'll be fine!" [Ceres picks up Shouta.] Ceres: "Hold on tight..." Ceres: "So you will not fall." [Ceres flies up with Shouta.] Shouta: "Waaah!" |
| Page 124 |
|
Chidori: "Wow, cool!!" Yuuhi: "She's perfectly defying the laws of gravity..." Chidori: "---but, somehow... it's pretty!" Chidori: "I've never seen it in a fairytale, but that's definitely the feeling!!" Chidori: "'Tennyo', huh..." |
| Page 125 |
|
[In the air.] Shouta: "Wah!! So cool!! I'm really flying!! I'm really flying!!" Ceres: "Are you not frightened?" Shouta: "Yeah! Just a bit... Wah!! Look how small the hospital looks!!" Shouta: "Onee-san, it's cool, isn't it!! Just like the 'Tennyo-sama' I've always heard grandpa talking about!!" Ceres: "What..." Shouta: "Over there! That's Sakagawa beyond Modegi!" Shouta: "I heard that at Amagokou, there's a temple where the Tennyo came down to from the sky." |
| Page 126 |
|
Shouta: "Um, the Hagoromo? The Tennyo took it with her when she went back to the sky!" Shouta: "She left her husband and children behind. Is the sky really so much better than family? Why did she go back?" Ceres: "Because when you look down on earth from the sky the humans look like tiny insects, it's pathetic!" Shouta: "It's because the sky was so wide and tall, so the people from long ago longed for the it. That's what Dad told me." Ceres: "Humans living their lives walking along the earth is their destiny... so they long for things they can not have--" Shouta: "...But... I really... want to fly!" Shouta: "After we land, I'll get my legs back... I'll walk. I definitely... want to become a pilot!" |

[Inside the hospital.] [Nameplate on the wall: Akiyama Kumi] [In Akiyama's room, Akiyama opens her eyes.] |
| Page 128 |
|
[Back outside.] Yuuhi: "Looks like they're coming down a bit." Chidori: "Shouta--you can take your time..." [A lightning bolt thingy shoots up from within the hospital and hits Ceres.] Chidori/Yuuhi: !! Ceres: "Ahhhh!!!!" |
| Page 129 |
|
[Ceres loses her grip on Shouta. He falls.] [I want to become a pilot!] Chidori: "Shouta--!!" |
