Lag: Ngh...
Lag: Gauche...
Lag: Wake up!! Gauche!!!

Lag: This is bad!...
Lag: At this rate, our Hearts will be eaten by the Gaichuu!

Lag: I've got no choice but to fire a Heart Bullet!
Lag: Even if it uses up all the Heart I have...

-28-
Lag: Back to Sylvette...
Lag: To Aria-san...
Lag: And to the Bee Hive...
Lag: I'm going to bring Gauche Suede back to them!!!

Lag: *pant*
Lag: *pant*
Lag: Where's the weak point...

Lag: *pant*
Lag: Where...
Lag: Ngh... my hand's shaking...

Gauche?: The back left wing...
Gauche: Aim for the base of it!

-30-
Gauche: The "Cabernet" has multiple weak points...
Gauche: First we have to make its flying unstable!

Lag: ...N...oir...?
Lag: ......
Lag: Gau...che...?

-31-
Gauche: Neither of us has got much Heart left to put into bullets
Gauche: So we both have to fire a Heart Bullet at the weak point at the same time!
Lag: Fire at the same time?!

Gauche: Don't put too much Heart in and use it up...
Gauche: You'll lose everything.
Gauche: And

Gauche: You better not make those important to you sad...

Gauche: Loaded!!

Zaji: Did he come back?!
Lag: I don't know...

Lag: ......
Lag: But... I felt it...

Lag: It was... a strong...
Lag: Kind Heart...

Lag: It was...
Lag: The strong, kind...
Lag: ...Person that I know!

-38-
Zaji: The Gaichuu disappeared over the southwest sea without heading for the capital...
Zaji: Maybe its route got changed because it lost the wing.
Zaji: I'll head back to base after checking out the section of Pius coastline it flew out from.

Zaji: Reverse might try something else...
Zaji: You need to be careful too
Lag: Yeah...
Zaji: What's with you? Still bothered about what happened to that Roda chick?

Zaji: She wasn't at the bottom of the cliff
Zaji: She got away! Somehow!!
Text, right: I don't think she'd just die like that either...
Zaji: I'm more worried about Connor... Does he want to stay back in Lamento Town forever?...

Lag: He believes that Sunny will wake up someday...
Lag: Just like how I believed... that Gauche would come back...

-39-
Zaji: Having said that... Gauche-san isn't waking up...
Zaji: But I'm sure once we get back to the Bee Hive, we can leave him with Dr. Thunderland, and he'll come up with something.
Lag: Yeah...

Zaji: What did you write?
Lag: Huh?

Zaji: The Letter to Gauche-san
Zaji: That you put in the Heart Bullet!
Zaji: You'd been struggling with it all this time, right?

-40-
Lag: Yeah... I wrote...
Lag: "I miss you"...
Zaji: Whaaat?! One sentence?! That's it?!

Lag: ......

Text, right: Well then
Text, left: Please try writing one some day...

Gauche: Even a single word is fine.
Gauche: Because even then...
Gauche: There are people who'd be so happy to receive it that they'd cry...

-40-
Lag: It reached him for sure...
Lag: My Letter...

Lag: For sure...

Vertical text, left: He conveyed his Heart, and now it's time for a peaceful sleep...
