1: Are you alright?
slanted: Takeuchi Sora's memories...why does he fight...?! Here, his
beliefs become clear!
2(2b): My back's all wet and it's gross so I just don't want to move...if
I had gotten serious with those guys, they'd be dead.
3: Thinking about it now, I don't really care.
4(2b): Heheh...I like it when boys act tough like that.
5: Huh?

417)
1: More importantly...
2: The thing that pisses me off
3(2b): was that when the thugs started beating me up after I yelled at
them for cutting, the other people there just stood around and watched
like it was some kind of show.
4: Good one!
5: Let's go outside, kid!
6: W...
7: We were there...too.
8(2b): But we...couldn't do anything. That gang's really famous around
here.
9(2b): At that time...I didn't know anything.

418)
1: See ya.
2: You can keep that handkerchief.
3: I came here to check on you because I didn't want to see you dead on
the news tomorrow...I'm glad you're alright.
4: The owner of the shop was really mad.
5: If you hadn't said anything, there would have been no fight.
6: Why
7: did I come "outside" in the first place?

419)
1: The world I had been wanting to see
2: was 99% composed of trash like that.
3: Understand?
4: Hoo.

420)
1: Mrow!
2(2b): Poor things! They're shivering!
3(2b): Awwww, they really like fried chicken sticks! They're eating it
right up!
4: Mrow!

421)
1: I was called a broken product.
2: Flesh trash with no value.
3: That's why I came out.
4: To grab something else.
5: To know why I was born.

422)
1: But this world is just like me.
2: Broken!!
3: What in the world...
4: did I get this body for...?
5: Got a minute?

423)
1: That's when I got the Wind Regalia,
2: Moon Droop Bagram from that old man.
3: These wheels are...a bit special.
4(2b): (Idiot!) You think that stupid disguise is actually working? What's
he planning this time...?
5: ...hey.

424)
1: Do you...
2: believe in "spirit?"
3: I decided
4: to kill him.
5: But...I couldn't finish the job.
6(2b): We have "weight" in our bodies...and because we each have our own
mass, we each have our own gravity.
7: Somewhere within...I had expectations for him.
8: In that case.
9: I was broken...I had been called trash.
10: I wanted to know why he came all the way out here to see me.

425)
1(2b): Who decided that the soul itself has no weight?
2(2b): Mass is just clumps of energy. E = mc2...even kids know that stuff.
3: But if souls have energy...then it should be removable.
4: That's why I made those wheels.
5: To practice that.
6: Use the "wind" of the soul...in other words, brain energy, and convert
it with that system.

426)
1(2b): Takeuchi-kun...I'm thankful to you. You gave me a very important
hint.
2(2b): When Gazelle died, I learned what my own mistake had been.
3: Wings will not spread if they're only given.
4(2b): Your "body" is broken as a Gravity Child. That's why I'm giving
these wheels to you.
5: If you're weak,
6: then you need to spend blood, sweat, and tears in order to prove your
worth.
7: Energy...
8: of the soul...
9: Hey...wait a minute, old man.

427)
1: What the fuuuuuuuck?!
2(2b): We're gonna kill you once we're free! So let us go, please!
3: I don't get it!
4(2b): Stupid kid! W...who the hell do you think we are?!
5(2b): Yeah...these are the guys who beat me up a while back. I can't
believe you guys were actually famous...it was so easy to find you.
6: You're....uhhh....errr....anyway!
7: I don't know what's going on here, but we'll apologize! So let us go!
8: Huh?
9: Hmm?

428)
1(2b): Uh...ummm...
2(2b): Huh? No...uh, we're...
3: Who the hell are you two?!
4(2b): What are those!? Are you serious?! You're going to film this? What
is this, some kind of punk'd thing?!
5: Hey!
6: Come on, just call out the producer!
7: What day is today?
8: Friday the 13th!
9: You guys had some problems with these thugs too, didn't you?
10: I'll finish them off, don't worry.
11: Um...what?
12: Once I blow off their heads
13: I'll let you leave here alive.

429)
1: That's what they call courage!
2: Secure your life with your own power!
3: GET IT!
4: C
5: Crazy...
6: They're totally insane...
7: Yeah, you won't be able to clean blood off this thing...
8: Ohhhh, I like that! Nice touch!
9: It looks like an executioner!
10: I...I can't do this! There's no way!
11: Yeah! That's it!!
12: Besides, I...I have to finish reading this book by tomorrow or my
teacher will get mad at me!
13(2b): We're friends, aren't we?! I'll talk to that damn teacher of yours
for you!
14(2b): Look, now he's crying! Whenever Masashi-kun cries it takes so long
to shut up him up again! I'm going home!
15: OK, bye bye, four-eyes!
16(2b): Ggggyaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!

430)
1(2b): I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! It's my fault! I'm sorry! Please
forgive me!
2: What a waste of time this was.
3: They're not in the wrong because they did something.
4: Higyaaaaahh
5(2b): Ahhhh
6: See ya!
7: It was their "not doing anything"...just squeezing a little bit of
courage out would have given them the energy to do something, but they
were too lazy, so they died.

431)
1: I...finally understood the meaning of the human soul.
2: I just need to be put in danger...to be backed up against a wall!
3(2b): I'm just like the 99% of useless trash out there. I need to create
my own worth with my own hands in this world!

432)
1: --In order to do that
2: I shaved off
3: my life.

433)
1(2b): Oh...you can go now.
2(2b): Your life was saved by the courage you spent in giving me your
handkerchief.
3: Aren't you happy? Your soul
4: weighs as much as a handkerchief.
slanted: Forcefully leaving only worthwhile people in the world...this is
where Sora's ambition was born.
