\beginscript

\say Yakumo: I'm Yakumo Fujii, age 16.

\say Yakumo: I was just a regular high-schooler, but that all changed when my life was saved by Pai, a legendary creature called a triclops.

\say Pai: Yakumo!  C'mon!  Hurry up!

\say Yakumo: Pai wants to become human, but, to do that, she needs the Statue of Humanity$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: But, even with the help of Ling-Ling Lee, it disappeared into the sky.

\say Yakumo: So I left the matter of the statue to Ling-Ling and the others,

\say Yakumo: as Pai and I returned to my regular life back in Japan$\ldots$

\medskip

\say Yakumo: Hey, Pai!  Breakfast's ready!  Wake up, will ya!

\say Yakumo: Geez, Pai -- how long are you gonna sleep?

\say Yakumo: What're you looking at?

\say Pai: This picture Yakumo's in.

\say Yakumo: That?  That's a picture of everybody when we were out on a road trip.

\say Pai: Who are they?

\say Yakumo: My pals.

\say Pai: Pals?

\say Yakumo: Well, we go to school together, have fun together, eat together, take trips together$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: You know -- pals.

\say Pai: Like friends, you mean$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: What?  You knew?

\say Pai: Sure!  Pai's got a pal, too!

\say Yakumo: You idiot!  Don't do that in here!

\say Yakumo: That's a pal, huh?  Not a face I'd like to see in the morning$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: Well, I'm going to school$\ldots$

\say Pai: Pai wants to go, too!

\say Yakumo: No way!  I'll be back soon, so just wait here!

\say Yakumo: Looks like I'll be walking from now on$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: Guess I'd better get moving$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: I bet everyone'll be surprised that I've turned into an immortal hero$\ldots$

\say Pal1: What's with this ``immortal hero'' crap?

\say Pal1: That's your excuse for breaking your promise to take a road trip with us?

\say Yakumo: Watch it!  You don't know anything about it!

\say Yakumo: Dammit, Ta-chan -- I was fighting monsters in Hong Kong!

\say Pal2: Hmmm, no fever$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: C'mon, Hidei$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: Hey, Saru, you've gotta believe me!

\say Saru: I'll believe you if you give me a souvenir from Hong Kong$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: You guys don't believe me?!

\say Principal: Hey!  You four!

\say Pal1: This is all your fault, Yakumo.

\say Natsuko: Standing outside again, huh, guys?

\say Yakumo: Hey, Natsuko -- it's been a while!

\say Natsuko: Yeah, right!

\say Natsuko: Is it true, what everyone's been saying?  That you went to Hong Kong?

\say Natsuko: That tears it!

\say Natsuko: Just kidding!  I'm not mad!  How 'bout taking this \#2 tour?

\say Pal1: Nope.  Not only did the twerp ditch us and go to Hong Kong, he took out a loan,

\say Pal1: and he even managed to trash his scooter$\ldots$  We can't go anywhere.

\say Yakumo: Sorry.

\say Natsuko: This sucks!

\say Pal1: Well?

\say Pal2: OK!  Looks like there's enough usable stuff.

\say Natsuko: So we can head out to Karuiza the Saturday after next!

\say Pal3: OK!  Let's fix this sucker!

\say Pal2: That plug's still good -- just clean it up a bit!

\say Natsuko: Fujii-kun!

\say Natsuko: This seat looks OK -- let's take it off!

\say Pal0: Hey, Yakumo -- take care of this rust, will ya?

\say Yakumo: Sure, sure, sure, sure$\ldots$.

\say Saru: Hey, Yakumo.

\say Saru: I'm thirsty.

\say Natsuko: Me, too.

\say Pal0: Me, too!

\say Yakumo: And guess who gets stuck with the leg work$\ldots$

\say Natsuko: What're you grinning about?

\say Yakumo: All this teamwork -- I was just thinking that I've gotta be in Japan$\ldots$

\say Natsuko: Oh, geez -- spare me!  Get going!

\say Yakumo: OK, OK!  I'm on my way!

\say Yakumo: Road trip the week after next, huh?  Sounds like fun!

\say Pai: Fool!

\say Yakumo: The triclops?

\say Pai: What are you doing?  What about your promise to make Pai human?

\say Yakumo: Hey!  The Statue of Humanity disappeared, and I DID go to Hong Kong, right?

\say Yakumo: What can I do?  I've got school!

\say Pai: Yakumo, we're leaving this place.

\say Pai: So long as you're a zombie, you'll never be able to lead a human life.

\say Pai: If this keeps up, your confidence will be shattered.

\say Yakumo: No way!

\say Natsuko: What're you doing?  Hurry up with that juice!

\say Pai: Trust me, Yakumo -- by the week after next, you won't have your old life.

\say Natsuko: No way!  Did you see that?!

\say Kermit: The triclops!

\say Natsuko: What was that girl?  She had three eyes!

\say Yakumo: Natsuko$\ldots$  That was$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: Look out!  Natsuko!

\say Kermit: You're$\ldots$ not$\ldots$ the triclops!

\say Yakumo: Bastard!  Who the hell're you?  Put down Natsuko!

\say Kermit: You're a zombie, huh?  Where's the triclops?

\say Yakumo: The triclops?  What do you want with her?

\say Kermit: I'm going to eat her flesh and drink her blood -- just like this!

\say Yakumo: Stop!

\say Kermit: Don't mess with me!

\say Kermit: Falling for that -- what an incompetent$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: Bastard!

\say Yakumo: Let go of Natsuko!

\say Kermit: If you tell me where the triclops is, I'll spare the girl's life.

\say Pai: Keep your place, scum.

\say Yakumo: The triclops!

\say Kermit: I've finally found it!  It looks delicious!

\say Kermit: I'll eat you and become immortal!

\say Kermit: I'll be immortal, and then I'LL give the orders!

\say Pai: How typical$\ldots$

\say Pal1: What happened?

\say Pal1: Natsuko!  Hey!

\say Yakumo: Natsuko$\ldots$ You're safe$\ldots$  Great$\ldots$

\say Pai: Understand, Yakumo?  You're leaving this place with me.

\say Yakumo: What's she talking about?

\say Yakumo: Pai, you idiot -- going outside as the triclops$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: She should try to be a bit less conspicuous$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: Mama!  Mama, are you there?

\say Mama: Asshole!  Stop pounding on my door!

\say Mama: What?  Yakumo?

\say Yakumo: Hey,sorry$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: Mama, that mud pack nearly scared me to death$\ldots$  and I'm immortal$\ldots$

\say Mama: This is terrible$\ldots$  Have the police been here yet?

\say Yakumo: The police?  Well, I thought that maybe Pai$\ldots$

\say Mama: Pai's over at my place.

\say Mama: She was hungry and cold, so I let her in.

\say Yakumo: Mama, the truth is$\ldots$

\say Mama: I can't believe it$\ldots$

\say Mama: All that about Pai having two personalities and three eyes,

\say Mama: and you becoming immortal$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: I still can't really believe it, myself, but the truth is the truth$\ldots$

\say Mama: You've been an idiot since you were a kid, but you've never been a liar$\ldots$

\say Mama: You wouldn't make up a lie like that as a joke.

\say Mama: So, you're saying that the things that're after Pai trashed your place?

\say Yakumo: My old man was the one who believed in monsters -- why is this happening to ME?

\say Mama: So, you can't go back to the good old days?

\say Mama: It's like Pai said -- until you end this by becoming human again, you won't be able to lead a normal life.

\say Yakumo: No way$\ldots$

\say Mama: This city's got too many lies in it$\ldots$

\say Mama: Everyone works hard, chasing after their petty dreams$\ldots$

\say Mama: That life might be bad$\ldots$  but if you throw it away, where do you end up?

\say Mama: Like me$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: Wait up!

\say Yakumo: Where'd you guys go?  I've been looking for you!

\say Yakumo: Just kidding!

\say Yakumo: Thanks for yesterday -- the scooter works great!  I'm looking forward to heading out to Karuiza!

\say Pal1: Well, hey, I'm running late!

\say Pal1: See ya!

\say Pal2: M..me too!

\say Yakumo: Hey, Natsuko!

\say Yakumo: You OK?

\say Natsuko: Sorry!

\say Daremo: No way!

\say Daremo: Really?!

\say Saru: Yeah!

\say Saru: A bridge fell on Yakumo yesterday, and man, was he messed up -- but he was still moving!

\say Onna: What d'you mean?

\say Saru: I don't think that the Fujii walking around now is the real one!

\say Onna: What is he, then?

\say Saru: A monster!

\say Yakumo: A monster?

\say Yakumo: Saru, listen to me!

\say Saru: Forgive me!  I'm sorry!  I didn't mean it!

\say Yakumo: Listen to me!  Saru, I$\ldots$

\say Saru: Save me!

\say Yakumo: Well, I guess the only thing I can do is leave$\ldots$

\say Pai: What're you doing, Yakumo?

\say Yakumo: What're YOU doing, surprising me like that?

\say Pai: Pai wants to go to school, so Pai's going!  Pai wants to make lots of friends, just like Yakumo!

\say Yakumo: I don't know what the hell I'm supposed to be feeling right now$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: Give me a fucking break!  Thanks to you, I've lost all my friends!

\say Pai: You didn't lose your friends!  You've got lots of friends at school!

\say Pai: Pai's going to school!

\say Pai: Is Yakumo coming, too?

\say Yakumo: Maybe I said too much$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: She's right, I guess$\ldots$  I'll have to go looking for the Statue of Humanity,

\say Yakumo: so I can become human again and come back soon$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: Guess it's time to say goodbye.

\say Natsuko: Didn't you have three eyes?

\say Pai: You're one of the people in the picture!  You're Yakumo's friend, right!

\say Natsuko: Y..yeah.

\say Pai: I'm Pai.

\say Natsuko: What happened to Fujii-kun?  You know something about it, don't you?

\say Natsuko: What are you to him?

\say Pai: Pai$\ldots$ Pai is$\ldots$

\say Pai: Are you that worried about Yakumo?

\say Natsuko: I'm worried.

\say Natsuko: What do you think about him?

\say Pai: Yakumo, huh?

\say Pai: He's my slave.

\say Yakumo: S..slave?!

\say Pai: My clan is able to use magic to conceal our great power$\ldots$

\say Pai: But every time we use some magic, the body must sleep.

\say Pai: During that time, we are unable to protect ourselves.

\say Pai: That is the purpose of the indestructible zombies -- tools for protection.

\say Yakumo: T..this ain't funny$\ldots$

\say Natsuko: Then make a zombie out of someone who's stronger -- who's better at fighting!

\say Natsuko: Turn Fujii-kun back to normal!  Please!

\say Pai: What?

\say Yakumo: So you think I'm a tool, too, huh, Pai?

\say Natsuko: I'M the tool!

\say Yakumo: You're still alive, you bastard?

\say Kermit: When I become immortal, I won't make a powerless incompetent into my zombie$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: Turn Natsuko back to normal, you asshole!

\say Kermit: That won't happen 'til I die.

\say Yakumo: Shit!

\say Kermit: I'm going to blast you into pieces so small that you won't be able to regenerate!

\say Kermit: You're mine!

\say Yakumo: T..triclops$\ldots$

\say Pai: Takuhi!

\say Yakumo: What about Natsuko?

\say Yakumo: Why?!  Why hasn't she turned back to normal?!

\say Kermit: Fool!  That was only a part of me!

\say Yakumo: What?

\say Kermit: I've been inside the girl all along!

\say Kermit: This girl's life is in my hands$\ldots$  If you want to save her, turn me into a zombie!

\say Yakumo: I haven't got the power to do that!

\say Kermit: Then the triclops can do it$\ldots$

\say Kermit: What's the problem?  She's going to die soon!

\say Yakumo: Stop!

\say Yakumo: Triclops -- make him immortal!

\say Pai: Nope.  Who would make a zombie out of scum like that?

\say Yakumo: Triclops!  Save Natsuko!

\say Pai: Are you trying to give ME orders?

\say Yakumo: Please!  I don't care what happens to me, but please save Natsuko!  Please!

\say Pai: Whether that girl lives or dies, it's no concern of mine.

\say Yakumo: Hey, monster -- you want an immortal body, I'll give you one!  Whatever you've gotta do, take mine!

\say Kermit: Very well.

\say Yakumo: Goodbye, everybody.  Goodbye, Pai.

\say Pai: Fool!  If you're my slave, why don't you start acting like one?

\say Yakumo: Triclops$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: I'm sorry, everybody$\ldots$  I put you all in danger.  I'm going to be leaving Japan.

\say Yakumo: Let's go, Pai.

\say Pai: Pai knows these people!  You're the people in that picture!  You're Yakumo's friends, right?

\say Natsuko: That's right.

\say Natsuko: We're all friends -- comrades.  Isn't that right?  Right?

\say Pal1: Yeah.

\say Pal1: We're friends.

\say Asura: I was a jerk, Yakumo.

\say Yakumo: So, that's when Pai and I began our journey.

\say Yakumo: I didn't know what the triclops really thought of me, but$\ldots$

\say Pal1: Take care!

\say Natsuko: Good luck!

\say Pal2: Turn back into a human real soon, so you can come back!

\say Pai: Pai wants to become human soon, too, so she can make lots of friends!

\say Yakumo: But, as for me, as for Pai and that monstrous triclops$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: I$\ldots$ like her.

\say Pai: I can't stop this thing!!

\say Pai: The Statue of Humanity$\ldots$

\say Yakumo: I can't die, dammit!

\say Pai: Yakumo puts himself in danger for Pai, so Pai's gonna risk her life for him!
