Chapter 70
The one I want

PAGE 03

Kyouko: Tezuka-san, it's an emergency!

Kyouko: Tezuka-san, are you there?!

Rei: Who are you...? / We don't have any change to spare...

PAGE 04

Kyouko: I'm Rain... / I'm not here for change!

Amamiya: ...the original!

Ron: Can't breathe....!

>lil txt: Forced to be her companion.

Rei: Ahh, Ron.....then you must be Amamiya-san!

>lil txt: Come on in.

Kyouko: P....pardon the intrusion!!

Rei: Amamiya-san, you're being targeted by the army right? Don't you think that get-up is a little suspicious....

Kyouko: Well I'm ordinarily a very normal person. So this boisterous disguise is perfect for me!

Rei: You have a point...

>lil txt: Forced to be her companion.

>lil bubble: Actually Oda.

PAGE 05

Kyouko: Rather than worrying about that, take a look at this.

Kyouko: I got another e-mail from Clay.

PAGE 06

Rei: What's this.....?

Kyouko: Photo's from a military satellite. It's a large military base in the north.
>Look closely.

Kyouko: There are holes.....

Rei: Holes....? It can't be...

Rei: When were these photos taken?

Kyouko: According to the e-mail, 13 days ago....The destruction has all been to military installations, that's why there hasn't been any reports about it.
>How did Clay get these from the army....

PAGE 07

Anzu: It doesn't look like the picture is a fake...
>--Certainly the army's information security units on the internet have increased their activity over the past two weeks......

Anzu: I can't be certain....but it may be the real deal.

Yun: But....isn't "Clay" supposed to be a joke......?

Kyouko: I certainly thought that at first.
>However....

Kyouko: He has sent more than enough e-mails to get threats from the army.

Kyouko: A normal person wouldn't send these things. They wouldn't even know about them.

PAGE 08

Kyouko: Because Clay was a member of the army.....

T/N: You wanna know what Clay's saying, go look up the chapter it's in.

Rei: And this picture?

Rei: If this picture really is the real thing---

PAGE 09

Rei: It means the "heart" is finally beginning to move....!!

PAGE 10

Tama: Megumi, what's that?

SFX: paku or munch

Tama: It's delicious....

>lil txt above guy: Thank you, come again.

Megumi: Ahahaha. Don't exaggerate, Tama-chan.

PAGE 11

Tama: Hnn...what's that...

Megumi: Awwww. We can't really see the fireworks well from here.

Tama: Hee~~~~yyyyyy!!

Tama: Come on, chop chop!

SFX: clapping her hands

>lil bubble: grrrrr

Taisuke: What's with that rude way of calling someone~~~~!!

Taisuke: What the hell are doing now?!

Taisuke: Ouch!

Megumi: Sorry Taisuke, for making you come out with us.....

PAGE 12

Taisuke: Don't worry about it......Corn-dog?

Rei: What about things there, Taisuke? Has anything changed?

Taisuke: Nothing...

PAGE 13

Taisuke: Ah....Meg was happy that Tama's sense of taste returned.

Rei: Sense of taste?

>lil bubble: scratch scratch

Taisuke: Well.....I don't really understand it myself....

Rei: Okay, that's good. I'm relying on you to continue keeping an eye on the Mitama.

Taisuke: No problem.

Rei: Oh, and by the way....

Rei: Do you guys not plan on returning to your homes?

Taisuke: I've...decided not to go home until this is completely over.
>I can still call though....

PAGE 14

Rei: But what about Megumi-chan? Is it really okay for her not to return home?

Taisuke: .....Meg was probably....

Taisuke: Meg!

PAGE 15

Taisuke: Meg!

Megumi: Wh...where are we going?!

Taisuke: To your house!

Megumi: What for?

Taisuke: You want to return home don't you?!

PAGE 16

Megumi: Will I not be able to come back!?

Taisuke: Meg was probably

Taisuke: Manipulated by Katsumata....

Taisuke: ....I knew it.

Taisuke: Katsumata, that bastard! He used his power on you....!

Taisuke: That unbelievable bastard!!

PAGE 17

Megumi: What are you saying so suddenly......Don't you know how nice of a person Katsumata-san is?

Taisuke: There's no way that's true.....

Taisuke: He's the one who kidnapped you two years ago....!

Taisuke: From just being with Katsumata, Hirose....

Taisuke: was turned into nothing but a murderer.....!!

Megumi: Wh...what are you saying, Taisuke? You're starting to scare me....

Taisuke: It's the truth!

Taisuke: How many people have died because of that bast----

PAGE 18

Megumi: Hirose-kun would never do such a thing!

Megumi: ....I..I'm heading back.

Megumi: Tama-chan will be waiting for me.....

PAGE 19

Taisuke: That hurts!

Taisuke: Tama....

Tama: I hear it....

Tama: It's finally moving....

PAGE 20

Tama: Akuro's heart is coming....!

Taisuke: Eh.....

PAGE 21

=No Txt=

PAGE 22

Katsumata: The heart has started to move.....

Katsumata: The other two who possessed a fragment of the heart,

Katsumata: have already been killed.

Katsumata: The only remaining fragment is in me....

Katsumata: I can't just let it do as it pleases.

PAGE 23

Katsumata: But it may be too late to do anything to stop it.....

Katsumata: We're already.....out of time.

Katsumata: If Hirose-kun isn't quickly made to awaken.....

Michele: Hahh~~~~~?!

PAGE 24

Michele: What do mean by that?! Katsumata-san!

Michele: It'll be impossible for just Ludger and me to go take the heart!

Michele: In the first place, if it were that easy,
>then why haven't we just gone and done it before?!

Katsumata: ....Well, listen.

Katsumata: Before recovering the heart, we had to wait for the "mitama" to be raised.

PAGE 25

Katsumata: The mitama has been happy with just getting her hands on the fragments so far.

Katsumata: But now,

Katsumata: It is finally possible for Mitama to accept the heart.

Michele: But....!! Trying to take the heart on the platform was a major disaster!!
>For us to try to recover it just isn't....

PAGE 26

Katsumata: With your power to manipulate gravity,

Katsumata: and Ludger's ability to copy other's powers.....

Katsumata: Certainly you will be able to take the heart from Hirose-kun.....

PAGE 27

Katsumata: ....I'm counting on you.

PAGE 28

Katsumata: ....I need for you two to fight with Hirose-kun.....

Katsumata: That was your role from the start anyway...

PAGE 29

Michele: Is this it? The place Katsumata-san said it would be.

Michele: Now we can beat the hell out of Hirose, take back the heart, and then it's case closed!

PAGE 30

Ludger: ....Michele.

Ludger: Do you have an odd feeling of doubt....?

Michele: Huh?
>What do you mean?!

Ludger: Sometimes....

Ludger: It feels like there's "something" I'm not understanding....

PAGE 31

Michele: What's that about, Ludger? Your acting kind of funny.

PAGE 32

Michele: There....

Michele: We've found it!

Michele: Cooomee.....
>Dow~~~wwwnnn!!

PAGE 35

Michele: A....all right!

Michele: Ludger~~!

Michele: Copy his power and defeat him!

PAGE 36

Ludger: The power....of nothingness....

Ludger: I am going to.....use this power.....?

Ludger: ....no...

Ludger: I don't desire this power....

Ludger: I just....want an answer and yet......why...

PAGE 37

Michele: Hey! Hurry up!! Copy his power and....

PAGE 38

Ludger: This is...the power of nothingness.....

Michele: Ludg~~~eeerrrrr!!

Ludger: Ah....

PAGE 41

Ludger: Ahh.....he has no body....

Ludger: There is nothing to wound.

Ludger: He has no blood to flow out.

Ludger: But.....we're the same....

LUdger: Perhaps in him,

PAGE 42

Ludger: It's a complete void as well...
