SDK 184 - To Be Called a "Monster" 1 Yuya: [Santera...] Yuya: [Metamorphosized...!?] Santera: Kill... 2 Yuya: Santera... she's melting everything around her!! Yuya: Kyaa!! Yuya: It's some kind of toxic mist that makes everything melt... it's even worse than what Sasuke-kun described... Akari: And she turned into a butterfly person somehow... Yuya: [But that's not all...] Santera: Ah... um... Yuya: [Everything about her has changed!!] Santera: Kill... 3 Santera: KILL!! Yuya: Kyaa!! Yuya: Oh, what should I do... I don't know... Akari: Yuya-chan, I'm borrowing this. Yuya: Huh!? Akari: Time to quit playing fairy princess. 4 Akari: Tch!! As I thought, totally useless. Yuya: WHAT!? Yuya: What do you think you're doing!? When did you take my gun!? Akari: Yeah, so...? Santera: Kill... Santera: KILL!! 5 Yuya: Kyaa!! Yuya: A.... Akari-san.... Akari: Ah, that was a surprise! (Scary!!) Yuya: What!? Yuya: Why are you hising behind me!? (Aren't you one of the Shiseiten!?) Akari: Yeah, so? I don't want my kimono getting dirty!! Yuya: SO!? YOU CAN'T JUST USE A PERSON AS A SHIELD!! Akari: But your style is kind of blah anyway, Yuya-chan, so I thought it wouldn't matter. Yuya: WHAT!? Why don't you try acting like a man!? Akari: Wah, I'm not a boy! (Poo!) Yuya: Don't go "poo" at me!! You really are a bratty little boy!! Akari: Whatever... more importantly, take a look at what happened while we were arguing. Yuya: Don't go changing the subject... Yuya: !! 6 Yuya: How are we going to get past that hole to make it to the second gate...!? Akari: Yeah, what a pain in the ass. Yuya: Akari-san!! Did you do that with your Air Vamp!? Akari: Ugh, no way!! That is sooo unstylish!! Yuya: ...Unstylish!? Yuya: What are you talking about...? 7 Yuya: It's melted on both sides!! There's nowhere to run!? (When did that happen!?) Santera: ...Kill. Santera: KILL!! 8 Akari: Damn it, we don't have time to play around. Akari: I've got to bring Kyo his body... then I'll be his bride... Akari: WAHHH!!! M... m... my beautiful hair!! Yuya: Akari-san!! Akari: How could you!? MY HAIR!! Santera: Kill... Akari: .... Akari: YOU WILL PAY FOR THAT!! I hope you're ready, girl!! 9 Akari: AIR VAMP!! Santera: Kill!! Yuya: Akari-san!! Yuya: If she uses Air Vamp, she'll suck up Santera's poison too!! Of course, Akari-san is way stronger, but... is this really Santera? Akari: A woman's hair is her life!! You will feel my wrath, little girl!! Akari: I'll suck your life force right down to the last drop!! 10 Akari: What... Akari: Yuya-chan!? Yuya: KYAAAA!! 11 Akari: Damn it!! Akari: Y... Yuya-chan!? Akari: Are you stupid!? What were you thinking!? Akari: If I hadn't stopped myself, you'd be dead, you know!? Yuya: I... I'm sorry, Akari-san... Yuya: But when I looked at her, I just had to do it... Akari: What...!? Santera: ...I don't... 12 Santera: Kill... Santera: I don't want to kill... Santera: Kill... Santera: Kill... Santera: I don't... want to kill... 13 Akari: Santera... Yuya: She doesn't want to fight... it's that drug that made her like this!! Yuya: Those... Yuya: Were always her true feelings... Santera: I don't want to fight! I don't want to hurt anyone!! Akari: Yuya-chan... Mekira: You don't want to fight? Too bad...? Mekira: Santera, you're a soldier created by the Mibu for the sole purpose of fighting... Whether you want to fight or not is irrelevant... Mekira: You live to fight. You die to fight. You are a doll... Mekira: Whenever you don't like something, you whine... poor little monster... no one wants to be near you... Mekira: As long as they live, there is no higher purpose than to serve the Mibu!! Akira: ...Monster... 14 Mekira: Come, Santera, do it! You have no choice!! Mekira: As long as you live, you fight!! Mekira: That is why you exist!! Santera: Wah... ah... Santera: Ah... Santera: K.... Santera: Kill... Santera: Kill...!! Santera: KILL!! 15 Okuni: Hey... hey, Sasuke-kun... Okuni: These stairs go on forever, don't that? Sasuke: Dunno... until we get there, I guess... They lead to the third Yin-Yang Gate, so when we get there, maybe they'll end. Okuni: I... I see... Okuni: He's brutally honest... if I ask to take a break, he'll think I'm OLD... Okuni: I... I'm coming!! Sasuke: Okay. Sasuke: .... Sasuke: Hey... Izumo no Okuni-san. Sasuke: Shouldn't that be "Izumo no Onee-sama?" Sasuke: Hey... didn't yiou used to be Indara of the Juunishinshou? Okuni: Well... yes... Sasuke: Then tell me... 16 Sasuke: Everything you know about the True Juunishinshou... Okuni: And by that you mean I should tell you about your friend, Makora...? Okuni: ...Very well. I'll tell you... (But there will be a fee) Okuni: Everything I know about the True Juunishinshou... Okuni: They're said to be the strongest soldiers created by the Mibu, and rightly so. Each has incredible power... Okuni: They'll fight for the Mibu or for Nobunaga, but it's not like there's much camraderie. Okuni: You already know four of the berserker ones... Shindara is the type to conceal everything about himself, but Makora is truly a puzzle... Sasuke: ...A puzzle? Okuni: Well, he'll just appear out of nowhere with no warning... he doesn't really involve himself with the others... Sasuke: .... Sasuke: [Kotarou...] Okuni: Antera and Santera usually keep to themselves and stay at headquarters... Okuni: There's nowhere else they can go... nowhere else they can belong... 17 Sasuke: A place to belong... Okuni: Yes... especially Santera. She doesn't really like to fight, but the Juunishinshou want her for her power. Sasuke: Santera... Santera handwritten: I'm scared!! Santera: Please, stop!! Sasuke: ...I see. Okuni: But what can you do? Okuni: Because of her ability, she has never touched another person... she has never known another's warmth. Okuni: Perhaps she faces the most difficulty and suffers most of all... Sasuke: She can't touch anyone!? Okuni: Everything she touches melts, so even if she wants to, she can't. Sasuke: .... Okuni: I think... what the girl need most of all is to feel the warmth of a kind person's hand... Sasuke: Someone's hand... Okuni: Yes... Okuni: A hand that will not disappear when she touches it... 18 Yuya: Santera! Please, listen to me!! We don't want to fight you!! Please, stop!! Akari: .... Yuya: Come on, Santera!! Please!! Yuya: Listen!! Santera: Kill... Santera: Kill... Mekira: It's no use... that girl is a monster... Akari: .... Akari: ["MOnster!!"] Woman: Toukichirou can heal people's wounds...!! Woman: Ugh, he's creepy, I won't even go near him!! Boy: Toukichirou's coming!! He'll kill us and turn us into mummies!! Let's run away!! Man: That boy is a monster!! Chibi Akari: That's not true!! I'm not a monster!! Chibi Akari: Don't call me a monster! I just want to be friends...!! Chibi Akari: It's not true!! I'm not a monster!! 19 Chibi Akari: Look at me!! Santera: Kill... Santera: Kill... Chibi Akari: I'm not a monster!! Yuya: Santera!! Please, listen to me!! Akari: Yuya-chan... Akari: You've saved me... I should thank you... Akari: I nearly lost sight of something important... Yuya: ...Akari-san!! So you're going to fight Santera... Akari: No. Yuya: Huh!? 20 Akari: I'm going to suck the "monster" right out of her... Yuya: A... Akari-san!! Yuya: Wh... what are you saying!? Akari: We Shiseiten have a law of blood... and people who break that law get punished... Yuya: Akari-san!? Yuya: Wh... why... Yuya: What si she doing!? I thought Akari-san understood Santera's feelings... Akari: This is in, "monster" Santera... 21 Yuya: [But...] Akari: Anyone who opposes one of the Shiseiten deserves a fate worse than death!!
