notes:
unless you're into yakuza, i doubt you'll understand what kantou shuuei-kai means. I don't care to translate it since it's just a (fictitious) gang name. The kai part is kinda like gang or family, kantou is a region of japan, and shuuei is the actual name part.

01
bold: Kagetora is captured!!
CALL.49 - "Writing on the Wall"
Iwashiro Toshiaki
-You sure he's still alive?

-Forget about today's plans. We need to vacate this place now
-Laon, pack the boxes and get them in the truck. Take him, too

-...I understand the situation. That idiot!
-Matsuri-sensei, I'm going after him but I don't have any clues

SUMMARY (left)
This is the tale of a young group of teenagers as they travel between the present and future to unravel the secret to the world's destruction. Ageha returns to the present from Nemesis Q's alternate dimension. Ageha phones Kagetora with the intent to help him hunt a group of criminals, but instead overhears as they capture him. Immediately Ageha springs into action, but now Elmore's children have also joined the chase...!?

02
-Sorry, but I'm in Melborne right now
-MELBORNE!? Where the heck's that?! Ngh...Damnit!!!

-I know! Listen, pay a visit to the Kanto Shuuei-kai
-That was Kagetora's old stomping grounds. I bet they were who gave him the job, too
-Their leader is...more or less, an old acquaintance. I'll call them up in advance

-Ageha. In order to find this person, I need one of his belongings. I don't suppose we can procure something?

-OK, Shao

-Whoever these guys are, they took out Kagetora. Don't lower your guard for a moment!

03
-Right, just leave it to me. I'll rescue him!

-...hey, granny. I'm happy you're lending me a hand, but you sure it's okay to get the kids involved in this?
-Of course

-This will be valuable practice for when they'll have to face far worse...

-You should be grateful!
-Because I, the future star Frederica, am lending you a hand!
-You need to support my rise to fame, got it!?

04
-Tell you what, I'll even let you become one of my servants!
-No thanks!

-Now that we have an objective, let's head for the Kantou Shuuei-kai!

-...i knew it.
-I shoulda guessed from the name...

sign is "shuuei-kai"

05
-We've been expecting you. Come on in.

-I've got a bad feeling about this...

-GRRAAAAH!! STOP RUNNING AROUND THE MANOR, YOU STUPID BRATS!!
-Fuu-chan, you'd better listen to him!!
-Kyahahahaha!!

06
-This is all I have of Kagetora's...it's enough, I hope?

-Yes, more than enough. We can't thank you enough, Miyoshi-kumichou
(t/n - kumichou is the title for a yakuza boss)

-Geh, heh! After receiving a call from that gorgeous pianist Kagetora's head over heels for,
-I'd have least expected the great Tenjuin Elmore herself! What a day this is turning out to be!

-You know him?
-I think he was one of my old clients

-For as timid and clueless as I am, I've prospered greatly thanks to your help

07
-Tiger-man! Tiger-man!!
-THAT ISN'T FOR YOU TO WEAR, RUNT!!!

-My, what lively children

-So...Kagetora-san has been captured by the criminals. Do you have any idea where he might be?

-Sorry...I haven't the slightest. He always makes it a point to work alone.
-Or should I say, he's never been able to find a partner that can keep up with him

-I left everything in regards to this case up to his judgment
-I'll I can remember is something about the Nakano area...

-We should leave at once. We have what we need.

-Uh...Fuu-chan! We really should be going!!

08
-Marie!!

-I found it!!
-MOGYAAAAA

-P-p-put that back!! Hurry up and hide it, stupid!!
-Huh? Did you just call me stupid, Marie?
-COME ON OUT, YA LIL' FLEABAGS!!

-If you happen to have free time again, do come on by and visit
-Children, say thanks to the gentleman
-THANK YOU~!

-Are you Yoshina Ageha?

-Tora spoke of you highly. He said you were someone able to keep up with him

-I'll send my men out to help search, so don't worry

09
-Go for it, Shao

-Understood

-"WHITE FU-CHI" / kanji: 風導八封白蛇 (something like "wind-guided 8 seal white snake", although I strongly sense chinese meaning behind this, and I don't know chinese).
(t/n - for more info, see wikipedia on "fuji". fu-chi is a chinese daoist art of spirit writing. if you're too lazy, suffice to say this is something like dowsing.)

-Catch the scent of his lingering thoughts, fu-chi

10
sfx - piku

-Woah
-Fu-chi has picked up on the scent of his mind
-He says it's not too far from here

-Okay, let's roll!!

11
-Ggh...I feel sick...Laon, got anything I can take??
-Haruhiko, honestly

-Do you really think we can trust Inui?

-Sure we can...
-...why are you bringing this up now? Didn't you need the cash??

12
-...Oh I want money. So bad I'd kill for it
-But Inui's a complete nutbag. If things keep up like this, we'll be ruined

-Huh...well, when I first met him, he never struck me as that crazy...

-Yeah? Well I can't stand him! Always scribbling that nonsense on the wall
-Haruhiko...that symbol that stands out from everything else, do you have any idea what it means?

-Dunno. All I know is he's all into some kinda dangerous new cult...that's why we're in danger
-Eh, so long as I get my share of the cash, I couldn't care less

-What are you discussing? We're here.

13
-W..welcome back, bro...y-you're early I see... heh heh

-Did you clean the house?
-The bath? The toilet?

-Y-
-yeah, everything! So why'd ya hit me!?

14
-How many times do I have to tell you, SHUT the curtains when you leave the lights on!!
-Go take a shower, you smell

-Damnit, having a worthless brother like you is nothing but a hassle
-Augh--

-Who's that guy?
-Inui's younger bro...hup!

15
-Grandmother, we found a room
-That's good news

-But it's empty, like someone already moved out

-They've already escaped?

16
-Damn!!

-Without a doubt, they were here. But we were one step too late

-What're these? Maps?
-Blueprints. Looks like an office

-Shao, try getting another reading--before they get too far away

-Right away
-WOAH! THIS IS NUTS!

17 (notice the kabbalah on the left...hm)
-Man, somebody wrote all this?
-Disgusting! It's like some primitive race

-What's up there? I can't read it
-Keep staring, and you'll go crazy too

-...huh?

-This is...!!!

18
-I've got another signal!!

-Really!?
-Yes. It's extremely weak, though. Fu-chi has already started after it

-But, if our target is on the move, we'll lose sight of the signal if we don't get going
-Everyone, hurry up!!

19
-Guys!! Kyle, Frederica, Van!!
-Get in the car!

-Van!

-"mon maître amagi miroku" (My master, Amagi Miroku)
-"je vous consacre ma vie" (I consecrate mine life to thee)

-VAN! Come on! We gotta run!

white: "Amagi Miroku"...The WISE's "symbol"...So close, and yet Aghea fails to notice these important clues...!!
