Hey,
What is that?
It's something that must have...
fallen down with us.

No...
I think it came with us on purpose...
It's...

#6 - Those Who Stood Idly By

152)
What are you, happy, sick, or just being cute?
I don't get you.
I can naturally feel the emotions of all living things.
Should I stop?
I'm sorry.
Apologizing?
You're a really serious person, huh?

154)
QUICKLY!!

155)
Get out of here!
Please, run away!!
Haha, like they'll make it outta here...
They'll never be able to pass me!!
The one they should be running from is you, hypocrite!!
You cursed devil!!
What happened that day in July...
I'LL HELP YOU REMEMBER!!!

156)
Wai...
Wait a second!!
You remember, right?
Me...back then...
That wasn't my fault!!

157)
Just die already!!
That shining light...
can you really forget such a thing?!?
That twisted hole...
That burned-out void!!
DESTROYED...
Left with nothing but a ravaged seed!!

158)
Everything I had...
YOU STOLE IT ALL FROM ME!!

159)
I was pretty surprised at first.
Those two...their "flow" is unbelievable.
It's almost like a gate.
And everything collects there and begins to grow...
It's funny, you know...
They're identical in every way...and have watched over us for so long.
We've been able to coexist with them...
Well...
Actually, we really couldn't exist without them.
Get it?
They can exist all by themselves.

160)
Vash...
Knives...
I don't know whether it's through evolution or experimentation...
But they aren't humans. They're "Plants."

161)
For decades, mankind struggled simply to survive.
All that time though, as the human race struggled on, they were watching.

162)
And then...

163)
Pretty...
scary, huh?
We've been nearly wiped out twice now.
I doubt he's changed much at all.
So, tell him he had better watch out...
Because not even I know the extent to which Knives' hatred goes.

164)
I need to be taking this seriously...
He IS one of the Gung-Ho Guns, after all...!!

165)
But...
he's already made his attack!
I'll return that ten-fold...
Dammit!!
My A note won't work!!

166)
It's heatin' up in here, Hopperd...
And if we waste too much time, we'll lose our edge.

169)
Man, what's wrong with you?
If you don't wanna die, you should really point your gun this way.
I mean, you're almost too pathetic to kill at this rate.

170)
You can still get there through Shijou Street!
No way!! It's way too dangerous down that end!!
Shit!! What are we gonna do?!
Sean! Sean, where are you?
Gramps, leave it!
Woah...yeah, over there, that's him! That's HIM!!
But what the hell is that?
I dunno, it looks like a monster!!
We have to get outta here, or we'll all die too!

171)
Wolfwood-san!!

172)
Please, Wolfwood-san, hang on!!
Dammit...
That cocky bastard...
Are you alright?
Hey! Big chick!
That's what *I* should be saying...
Where's...
Spikey?!
Let me take it off.
Don't touch it!

173)
Wolfwood-san...
I...
See, you're scared.
That's why I told you to stay behind!!
I can't believe I let that bastard get away...
He finally bested me...
It doesn't matter though. I'll get him soon enough...
Go find shortie.
From here on out...
I'm gonna go it alone.

174)
Eh?
Are you two alright?
What the hell are you doing down here!?
What, there's still people left...?
Dammit, this is worse than I thought...
Argh!

175)
The "Punisher" has taken over this town...
Now I have no choice but to search in the darkness.
The kidnapper!

176)
Welcome back.

Why the hell are you still here!?

177)
You barely made it out, huh?
...yeah.
Because of "Chapel."
I was just playing him, though.
Hmm...you sure?
Shut up.
Once Knives wears out your usefulness, what will happen to you?
I mean, this is your last mission, right?
He'll strike us down whenever he feels like it.
We really have nowhere to run to anymore...

178)
Oh shit...
He's EARLY!!
Everyone...
We're all going to be tied up in this confusing mess.
