pg. 175) Crowd: What is it? What is it? A fire? Crowd: Don't you know? You know that all those women that have been kidnapped lately. They say the kidnapper is at the Royal Hotel Soala Hong Kong. Crowd: A kidnapping? Crowd: It seems there was an anonymous tip to the police and it has caused quite a stir. Crowd: Ho...yet another terrible event.... pg. 176) Crowd: Ah! Look out! pg. 179) Pai: Does it hurt? Are you OK Yakumo? Yakumo: Ah... Thank you! pg. 180) Yakumo: Hehn! What's with that attitude. I saved her didn't I. Isn't that right Pai? Yakumo: Pai? pg. 181) Ling Ling: Err! What do you think your doing? How many times to I have to tell not to be goofing off at times like this!! Ling Ling: There's a hellicopter on the roof. We'd better run there quickly, this place is going to be a sea of fire soon. Yakumo: That's because you over did it isn't it? pg. 182) Ling Ling: Ha ha ha! Don't worry about it! Don't worry about!! It's all right!! The weapons, ammo, everything is being paid for by Ms. Wong! Yakumo: That's not what I meant!! Yakumo: There are some women being held captive here!! Ling Ling: Waste not want not! Ling Ling: Everyone has fleed downstairs. Since Ms. Wong notified the police, they should all be rescued down there. Yakumo: Whaa! pg. 183) Ling Ling: Come on! Hurry! To the roof!! Yakumo: Of course. Now that I think of it, Ryouko has dissapeared. If you hang out around here too long, you'll just get enveloped in the flames and die. Ling Ling: At any rate Ling Ling: Since we were armed, and we got the statue back, we don't need any help from the police. Thus it's better to do things in a fancy way, cause a great confusion and escape in the helicopter. Yakumo: But we'll just be tracked in the helicopter. Ling Ling: We're going to ditch it in the ocean. Ms. Wong will pick us up with her Cruiser. Yakumo: You have everything planed don't you. Ling Ling: Me along with Wong's secret army. [lit. "followers" or "subordinates"] pg. 184) Yakumo: Weapons and followers.... That Ms. Wong person is really somthing isn't she. [note: In Japanese the first pharse becomes "buki ni buka" which is somewhat of a play on words because of the similarity between "followers" and "weapons"] Yakumo: However, becomeing involved in something like this is bad for my reputation. Pai: Eh he he. Not at all. I don't think your reputation is dameged for saving Meixing. I just think you're I nice guy! Yakumo: That's not what I ment... Pai: It's OK, I understand. Pai likes Meixing *too*. Yakumo: Uh! Yakumo: I don't think anything at all about Meixing [in other words he's emphatically stating he has no love interests in Meixing]. pg. 185) Pai: You're lying! Yakumo: It's the truth! I don't think anything at all of that bitch... Meixing: Hey! Yakumo: ahhh! Yakumo: Wha..What is it that you want? Since we're in kind of an emergency situtation here, be gentle... Meixing: It was wrong of me to doubt you..... I'm sorry... and thanks. [in Japanese with a Chinese accent]. Meixing: You're right hand... for me.... Yakumo: Ah! Don't worry about.... I'll just grow another one soon. pg. 186) Meixing: I'm sorry. Meixing: I damaged.... your boyfriend... Yakumo: Boy Pai: friend? Yakumo: Ah ha ha ha ha, Um, well, we're not yet... That is we like each other but... Pai: Yakumo isn't my boyfriend. He's my "dachinko" (Friend) pg. 187) Meixing: Da-chi-n-ko? Pai: Academically speaking, its what they call "friend" in the study of primates. (Pai is really cool isn't she). Meixing: The..then he's not you're boyfriend at all? Pai: Not at all!! Yakumo[thinking]: Not at all!? Meixing: Ah ha ha ha ha is that so ah ha ha ha ha Pai[thinking]: eh he he. I wonder what a "boyfriend" is? Meixing: Ah ha! Somehow I suddenly feel much happier!! Really!! I'm so glad I didn't become a sacrafice for this Kaiyanwan or whatever guy. pg. 188) Pai: Kai Pai: Yan pg. 189) Pilot: Instruments OK!! Engine OK!! Fule OK!! Yakumo[thinking]: A dachinko huh? Yakumo[thinking]: Well, I guess that really is true isn't it. We're not really boyfriend/girlfriend yet. But still.... At least she could be a little embarassed or her face could turn red before she ansered "no". pg. 190) Yakumo[thinking]: But just saying we're only friends without even hesitating, I...I.... Ling Ling: All right, we're going!! Everyone's on right? Ling Ling: Here we go!! Yakumo: Pai!! Where's Pai!! Pai's not here!! Yakumo: What is this? She's still in there!! pg. 191) Yakumo: Pai!! Ling Ling: Don't go!! It's too dangerous!! If it's Pai, she's fine. I met her on the 30th floor and told her the way to the elevators. Yakumo: But still, I have to go save her. Everyone go on ahead. Ling Ling: Yakumo!! pg. 192) Ryouko: You!! I won't let you leave alive!! Yakumo: Ryouko!? You're still alive!? pg. 193) Ling Ling: Yakumo!! pg. 194) Long: It's no good.... With the defence field he's putting out with his wings, no matter what weapon we used, we can't hurt him. Ling Ling: This is no time for you're lectures... Long: It's... If only we could prevent him from using his wings... Yakumo: It's no use!! We already got the statue of humanity... Yakumo come back!! You'll just be killed! Yakumo: I won't die!! Yakumo: Everyone has something that is more important to them than themselves. Yakumo: For me that something is... pg. 195) Yakumo: Pai! Ling Ling: Tha...that forehead!? Long: Wu!? Ryouko: Wh.. what the... pg. 196) Yakumo: No matter what happens, I won't die!! Therefore, everyone go on ahead. Ryouko: It can't be!! It can't be!! Is there really another Sanjiyan other than Kaiyanwan!? Ryouko: It can't be!! It can't be!! pg. 197) Ryouko: Wait!! Meixing: No! Don't go!! I won't let you just leave them behind. Ling Ling: Be quite!! Ling Ling: We're not going to leave them behind. We'll wait right up to the last second. pg. 200) Sanjiyan: Don't remember....Pai! The things of your past.... Sanjiyan: You went to all the trouble to forget.... Sanjiyan: Don't remember.... Sanjiyan: He's gone now.... pg. 202) Ryouko: It's a lie! It's a lie! Ryouko: You can't be an Wu!! Ryouko: Die! Die! Die and let me tear you skin off!! Yakumo: Uhhhh Yakumo: Ha! pg. 203) Yakumo: Grrrr... All you do is get in my way!! Yakumo: You!! Yakumo: Rrrroowww! Ryouko: Wha..what!? Yakumo: Die and go to hell!! pg. 204) Yakumo: Down! pg. 206) Sanjiyan: Y..you are....

pg. 207) Sanjiyan: He...help me Yakumooo.. pg. 208) Yakumo: I'm coming Pai!! pg. 210) Yakumo: I...I can't believe it. Yakumo: It feels like a surge of energy is suddenly flowing through my body. [lit. Like a lie, my body is filled with power] Pai. Pai is calling me!! Yakumo: I have to hurry!! I have to hurry and get Pai out of here... Ryouko: Ooohhh.. Please stop. Please don't kill me... pg. 211) Yakumo: So you go and kill all those women, and no you are pleading for your life!! Ryouko: It wasn't me... Ryouko: I did the sacrafices because I was ordered to by someone. It wasn't because I wanted to... Ryouko: That "someone" is searching for a way to bring back Kaiyanwan. He's having many beings of darkness try all sorts of different rituals.... pg. 212) Ryouko: I'm just one of the many.... Yakumo: Wha... Ryouko: Therefore, I beg you! Spare my life. Ryouko: If you are an Wu, then you are one of us....Work for the resurection of Kaiyanwan and establish the creatures of darkness as a nation of undead!! pg. 213) Man: How surprising... A Sanjiyan still alive. Man: What are you doing here? Sanjiyan: The same as you... I came for the statue. One of my followers was able to find it immediately using a tracking device. pg. 214) Man: Follower? Is the statue with them? Sanjiyan: I'm not going to tell you. Man: What do you want? Do you want to become human? If you give me the statue, I'll make you human. Sanjiyan: Rather than that... Sanjiyan: What has happend with Kaiyan? Sanjiyan: Why are you seeking the statue? Kaiyanwan is supposed to be sealed in the Seichi (Holy Land). pg. 215) Man: An old seal like that isn't something that can bind my leader forever. The resurection of Kaiyanwan is only a matter of time now. Sanjiyan: And that's why you want the statue!! Sanjiyan: The statue is a two-edged sword. It can be a tool for humanization, or it can be a horrible source of power for the desruction of the world... Sanjiyan: I'm quite satisfied with the world as it is right now. I won't let it be used by those drunk with power and bent on destruction. Sanjiyan: I will never hand over the statue!! pg. 216) Man: No matter what? Sanjiyan: Of course not!! Even if it's in trade for my own life, I won't let him be resurected. Man: I see. But what are you going to do? Do you think you can kill me? Sanjiyan: Be quite!! Sanjiyan: For vermin like you!! I'll do this!! Sanjiyan: Ah! pg. 218) Yakumo: Pheww... Yakumo: This is really supprising. The foor is going to pieces. Yakumo: This room is///! Yakumo: Pai, Pai, Where's Pai!? pg. 220) Yakumo: Ah ah. Ryouko: Lord Benaresu Yakumo[thinking]: Of course! Could this guy be the General over all the monsters. Or even more than that, the Wu of Kaiyanwan? Ryouko: He he he he. Please be happy. Here's an unbelievable[?] find. An Wu. But a fool who won't even finnish off his enimies. Benaresu: The fool... pg. 221) Benaresu: is you! Benaresu: Come forth!! Touchao!! (Earth Claw) pg. 222) Benaresu: I have no need for someone who gets beat up by a little pipsqueak. Benaresu: Kid....where's the statue? Ryouko: But... pg. 223) Yakumo: What shall I do... Pai: Uhh... Yakumo: Pai!! Pai: Yakumo!! Pai: EEeeiii! Benaresu: Hmmph Yakumo: Uh.. pg. 224) Yakumo: Grrr..... Benaresu: He he he... A fight between Wu's is a waste of time. Benaresu: I will have you return the statue shortly. In the mean time take good care of the girl. pg. 225) Yakumo: We're saved... Yakumo: Whew Sanjiyan: You're slow, fool! Sanjiyan: But for you, not bad. Yakumo: You, you, I'm gonna' sock you one!! Pai: Hey Yakumo!! You're right arm is already better!! Wow!! Pai: Yakumo? What is it? Huh? Huh? Huh? Yakumo: (That's really underhanded) pg. 226) Yakumo: Shit!! Yakumo: The elevator, the emergancy ladder, everything is no good. How are we going to get out of here. Pai: I'm sorry. It's all Pai's fault... Yakumo: That's not true at all. It's all that thing's fault. Ryouko: Uhh....I don't want to die... pg. 227) Pai: I'm sorry. But don't worry. We'll save you. Pai: I'm sorry. Yakumo: Unbelievable.... Yakumo: Ryouko!! Is there another route up!! pg. 228) Ryouko: Fools. What do you hope to gain by fleeing up? Yakumo: Perhase everyone is still waiting for us on the roof. Ryouko: He he he. You're overly optimistic. Look at me. Even that undead Benaresu is only thinking of himself. Ryouko: As for ordinary humans.... Ryouko: they have their hand full just looking out for their own safety. Ryouko: Why should they wait on the roof of a burning building? What do they have to gain by waiting for you? There's nobody that thinks about others. pg. 229) Pai: Uhn uhn. That't not true at all. Yakumo: Pai... Pai: Yakumo sticks his neck out for me. Therefor, Pai is also betting her life on Yakumo. Pai: Because we are "dachinko" (friends). Ordinary humans stick their necks out for their friends. pg. 230) Pai: Meixing too, Ling Ling too. We're all friends. Yakumo: Pai.... Ryouko: Inside that column, there's a ladder going to the roof. Hurry!! Yakumo: Ryouko... Ryouko: Hurry up and go!! You're an eyesore. You're going to die anyway, so go die on the roof. Pai: Ryouko, flee with us. Ryouko: Would you hurry up and take her away!! Yakumo: Thank you! Pai: Yakumo!? pg. 231) Pai: Ryouko!! Yakumo: Give it up, Pai! Ryouko: He he he. The final sacrafice will be with my own blood. Pai: Ryouko!! Yakumo: This is no time to be crying!! Yakumo: Since he went to the trouble to tell us the way, we can't let it go to waste!! pg. 232) Yakumo: Ha.... ha ha.... (I guess there was no reason to think they'd be here...) Yakumo: Oh well... I guess.... Yakumo: ...after all... Yakumo: this is it.... Pai: Look! It's just as Pai said! Yakumo: Ah Ah pg. 233) Pai: Therefore, Pai really likes humans!! pg. 234) Pai: Dachinko! Pai[narration]: Pai, by all means, wants to become human.

pg. 236) Meixing: Ohhh! You go it! You got it! Pai: Morning! pg. 237) Pai: Hmphm (clearing throat) Good morning Yakumo! Ling Ling: (Hey! Pull in your stomach!!) Ling Ling: You're open! Yakumo: Waaa! Ling Ling: Ha! Yakumo: Wa! All right you got me Ling Ling, now stop.... pg. 238) Ling Ling: Things aren't that sweet in reality Ling Ling: If you let your back be taking this easy, you won't be able to protect Pai. Ling Ling: Tickle. Tickle. Yakumo[Naration]: It's been two weeks since we got back the statue of humanity. We've been at Ms. Wong's house [lit. been a trouble to Ms. Wong] pg. 239) Yakumo[Naration]: Leading a life of ease on the pretense that we are waiting for the analysis on the statue. Pai: You must be anxious. You're hospital release party is tomorrow. Long: Sorry to make you go to all that bother. Meixing: Take it easy on the food, brother. Long: Rather than my hospital release, why don't we celebrate your becoming human? Yakumo[Narration]: What if we become human? That's the biggest problem. pg. 240) Yakumo[Narration]: I, of course, will return to Japan. But Pai. What will Pai do? Go back to Tibet, I suppose. Yakumo's Day Dream: Yakumo: Let's live together in Japan. Pai: That would make me so happy. I like Yakumo a lot [Remember, in Japanese "like" is pretty close to "love"] Yakumo: Oh Yeah! Oh Yeah! Pai: You're so strange Yakumo. What's wrong? Yakumo: Nothing. pg. 241) Yakumo: Uh, um. If....if...we become human. Wha....what will you d...do P...Pai? Yakumo[thinking]: Now's my chance. I'll just ask her to live in Japan with me. Pai: PARTY! Yakumo: Huh? Pai: That's right. A humanization celebration. Actually, this is going to be Pai's first party. Yakumo: Huh? Pai: But, I'm looking forward to tomorrow to. Why do you suppose it is so fun living together with *everyone*. He he he. pg. 242) Pai: Isn't Yakumo happy too? LIVING TOGETHER WITH EVERYONE. Yakumo: No..no it's not that but... Pai: You're strange. Wong: All clear? Thug: Yeah. I don't think Benaresu will come after them in the middle of town. Figure: Shunkai. What do you indent to do? Wong: What are you talking about. Those two are a real Sanjiyan and Wu. We must follow Benaresu and not make enemies of them. pg. 243) Wong: If we keep them in our palm, they will surely be useful some day. Wong: And if for some reason Kaiyanwan can't be resurected, then.... [lit. the original says "in the one in ten thousand chance", a Japanese expression] Wong: we will make her the 2nd Kaiyanwan. Wong: All right. Don't go after her again, you hear? Figure: Ge he he he. Bug Eye: Understood. pg. 244) Yakumo: Arrrgh! Shit! I can't stand it. Why can't I just ask her to live in Japan with me. Yakumo: I guess my courage doesn't beome invincable with the rest of me. pg. 245) Yakumo: Sigh. I just won't be satisfied until I get this over with. Yakumo: I'll just go ask Pai what her feelings are. Yakumo: I'll just tell her to come with me, and not complain about the reply. Yakumo: Here we go. Are you awake Pai!! I'm comming in. Sanjiyan: Be quite! pg. 246) Sanjiyan: We have a guest which has taken over the body of Takuhi. Face: How are you doing, kid? Yakumo: Be..Benaresu. You're Kaiyanwan's Wu aren't you. Benaresu: That's right. Yakumo: We're about to become human. We have nothing to do with you. Go home!! pg. 247) Benaresu: I'll give you one day. Benaresu: The Sanjiyan will come to Aberdeen alone by morning two days hence. Benaresu: Don't be alarmed. I won't take her and eat her or anything. In order to assure the resurection of Kaiyanwan, I will just have her sleep for a while. I guarantee her life, and as soon as Kaiyanwan is resurected, I will return her. Yakumo: And why should we hand Pai over to the likes of you!? pg. 248) Benaresu: If you don't want the people in the mansion to become like this, you'd best do as I say. Benaresu: Think it over well. The morning two days hence. Benaresu: I'll be waiting. pg. 249) Yakumo: Will you tell me the details. About Wu, and about Kaiyanwan. Sanjiyan: Long ago.... There was a wicked Sanjiyan who tried to become the rule over all life on this land. Snajiyan: We tried to admonish him against it, but it was no use. Instead, we were treated as enemies, and exterminated. pg. 250) Sanjiyan: Combined with the power of Benaresu, the days passed as living hell. Sanjiyan: In the end, the remaining Sanjiyan sealed him in the Seichi (Holy Land). In exchange for their lives. Sanjiyan: When I(Pai) came to. I was alone. That's all I know. I had thought that that was the end of it all. pg. 251) Sanjiyan: We must fight, Yakumo! Sanjiyan: I think that bastard will keep his promise and let Pai live. But rather than that, he will cause Kaiyanwan's resurection and set humanity on a path to destruction. Sanjiyan: Don't tell this to anyone. Not even to Pai. Nor talk of Takuhi. We take off on the morning two days hence. Be prepared. Yakumo: Und..understood. pg. 252) Yakumo[narration]: Do we really stand a chance against him? If we loose, what's going to happen. Pai: Yakumo, Yakumo. pg. 253) Yakumo[narration]: We must win. We must make this the final battle. Win, and become human with Pai. pg. 254) Yakumo: Pai... Pai: What is it? What are you thinking? Yakumo. Yakumo: Whe...when we become human, I...I will return to Japan. Pai: Yakumo.... Yakumo: Th..th...therefore, wo...wont you come too Pai? I...you [note: He's trying to say "I like you", but in Japanese the "like" comes at the end of the sentance and is omitted here]. Pai: Yes. When we become human. pg. 256) Yakumo[thinking]: I did it! With this, my little adventure that started in Tokyo will come to a happy ending. Sideline: *when* we become human... Ling Ling: Come on! Since you went to all the trouble to become undead, we could do monster extermination and make a lot of money. Yakumo: No way! I'm going to become human soon. Wong: My! You're in a good mood Yakumo. Meixing: Say! Where's Pai? Yakumo: Hm? She was jyst here a second ago. How strange. pg. 257) Pai: Yakumo.... Everyone.... Pai is going to defeat Kaiyanwan, and promises to return. Sanjiyan: Did you realize it, Pai? Pai: Yes. Takuhi's spirt told me. Sanjiyan: Going alone is foolish. There's nothing better for defeating a Sanjiyan than an Wu. Pai: I don't want to inconvenience anyone anymore. Pai: For everyone's sake, for Yakumo's sake, Pai will risk her life. Sanjiyan: But you know, if you should die, so will Yakumo. pg. 258) Sanjiyan: Never mind. Lets go. To defeat Kaiyanwan. And then. To return. To Yakumo's side. pg. 259) Yakumo: Pai! Where are you Pai! Pai! Yakumo: Pai.... Note: I'm sorry. Pai is going to fight alone. I promise to return. Wait for me OK? Yakumo: That, foolish... pg. 260) People: What is that? It's coming from Aberdeen. Yakumo: PAI!!!!! pg. 262) Yakumo[narration]: Pai didn't return.... But as long as I'm alive, I know Pai's alive too. pg. 263) Yakumo[narration]: This time it's my turn to search. No matter how many years it takes. Then, we will become human together.
