CALL.20 - "Battle Plan"
white: The eagerly anticipated 1st volume hits shelves this week, 5/2 (fri)!!

04
SUMMARY (right)
Right after being summoned to Psyren, Ageha and co face a giant "worm" that feeds on people, along with a man who looks exactly like Asaga's junior, Tatsuo. Amamiya dives into his memories using her "Trance" abilities. Although it turns out that this man actually is Tatsuo, he's lost his free will after being transplanted with a Tavoo core. Now that it looks like the team has nowhere to run, Oboro's got an idea...!?

-Two hours earlier...
-haa
-haa
-Around 7:30 pm, present time...

-haa
-haa

-He's no longer the Tatsuo you knew
-He's a Tavoo
corner: His mind...his memories...barely anything was left

-I'm pretty sure...there's nothing we can do to save him...

-Hiryuu--we might have a plan. Come join us

-Okay...

05
-Steal Tatsuo's mask??
-That black thing on his face?

-Yep, that's the one
-I understand it's a device capable of sending out frequencies that monster can't stand
-If we can obtain it, we can make it to the Gate

-I wonder...well, you are right that he was able to repel the worm
-One thing's for sure: Sitting here won't get us anywhere
-We have to act before we're attacked again

-I think it's worth a shot!
-But the problem is how--we're stuck here in the first place because of the worm

-That's right...we need some way to divert its attention, even if just for a short while
-During that time, the other group will move in and take the mask!

-I'll help get us close to Tatsuo
-Any objections?

06
-Asaga-kun...

-I'll make it happen, no matter what
-I have to settle things anyway
-Me and Tatsuo are going to have a little chat

-Do as you like. I won't stop you
-After all, it looks like you can use that "PSI power" too...
-What's the point of trying to talk to that guy?!

-The most important thing is that we act before Tatsuo's done reloading
-We can't give him a chance to use his weapon...

-But...
-Tatsuo isn't only using Burst...
-He's capable of Rise too!!

07
-OK!! I'll go with ya, Hiryuu!
-Then we've got nothing to worry about! Right, Amamiya?
-Yoshina!?

-That would be even worse!!
-OWOWOWOWOW!!!

-No! Me and Hiryuu will go together!
-Stop being unreasonable!
-I can say the same to you!!

-Do you plan on dying to protect us?!

-I don't care how tough you're trying to act, I know you're completely drained after that last stunt! Even an idiot can see through you!
-Trying to take on him AND the worm again, together?? Cut the crap!
-...I don't want to see you in that kind of pain again!

08
-n-no...
-it's too dangerous!!
-this fight is far too dangerous!!

-I don't care if you were recovered,
-There's no way I'd let you go again

-I'm sick of it
-Having to watch you fight from the sidelines
-While trying to calm myself with the logic that there's nothing I can do
-I'm sick of it!!

-This time, I'm going to the front lines
bub: We're the pro fighters here! Leave it to us!
-This time, I'll be the one to protect you

09
-Looks like those two have no desire to back down
-What do you say, Amamiya?

-....hmph
-...fine!...do whatever you want!

-Okie-Dokie! We will~
-He's asking for it...

-ebhaaa!

-Hiryuu...

-Current time in present-day Japan: 7:55PM

10
-The sky is sure getting dark...
-Don't worry, it won't get any darker than this

-Man, this thing doesn't know when to quit!
-I wonder if HE tastes any good?
-As soon as you go forward, it's sure to attack
-Heh! Then I'll pound him in the face!
-Are you retarded?!

-Then, can I leave him to you?
-Sure...I'll run around and keep his attention

-Amamiya was reluctant, but agreed to Oboro's plan

-There's no way me and Hiryuu could run for Tatsuo and guard against this worm at the same time...
-Amamiya's the only one that can pull that off

11
-Tatsuo's retreated to a safe resting place. Using Rise takes a lot out of you...
-Probably, that just bought us 20-30 more minutes...but that's also depending on luck

12
-Only about 50% of his memories are left
-And, the way his gun is reloading is much slower than earlier

-It's because of his PSI overuse...so it's no surprise that he's slowing down
-His need for rest has given us time to rest as well

-According to our time, it's around 8PM. By my estimate, last reload took him somewhere around 2 hours
-So how long this time?
-He started this reload around 6pm...even though it's been 2 hours, the charge is only halfway complete

-That must mean he'll finish somewhere around 10 pm, I take it?

13
-Then we must act at 9:30
-Let's rest up until then
-Okay!

-Hey, Hiryuu
-I need to ask you something

-What?

-Present time - 9:15

-Hold on! Why are me and Kirisaki on standby?!
-Huh?
-I'm the one who came up with the plan! I want to do something too!

14
-Seriously, what do you expect us to do? Take you along?
-Get it?
-NO!!
-I wanna go too!!

-...what are you, a kid?
-You've got the important responsibility of looking after someone sick

-Take care of Kirisaki for us
-wha...!!

-Okay you two, don't forget my advice
-yeah
-We're counting on you Amamiya

15
-If you die,
-I'll NEVER forgive you!!

-T-that...
-scared the crap outta me...
-same here...
(t/n - can't really read the word in the 2nd bubble, raw too grainy, my guess.)

-Ready?
-You bet

16
-By the way...
-About the plan we just spoke about...
-Hah?!
-You just gave me the OK!! What is it now??

-You're going to charge at Tatsuo from the front,
-While I swing around the back,
-Looking for a chance to strike!
-But, that would make you nothing but bait!
boxes clockwise: tatsuo / you / me

-Yeah, that's right! I'm the only one dumb enough to dash across this wasteland at the risk of my life, anyway
-Besides, that guy can use Rise! That means you're the only one who can make this plan work

-Do you have any idea how dangerous this is for you!?
-I thought you wanted to save Tatsuo!!

-Say what!?

-I know what Amamiya said, but you haven't given up hope yet, right?!

-You'll return him to his senses! You'll bring him back home with us!
-I'll wage everything I've got on those odds, Hiryuu!
-Whether or not I get into trouble, I know you'll pull through!

17
-Yoshina!

-You aren't the only one who looks after their old friends, Hiryuu...

-C'mere, boy

-Let's go for a walk!
-Guuu

18
-Here they go!!

19
-TATSUOOOOOO!!

white: MISSION START! Will Ageha and Hiryuu's hopes be realized!?
