The collapse of the "curse" that started with Kureno spread to Momiji and then Hiro. Worried about Akito's reaction, but...? |
|
#Kagura's walking past Akito's home at night carrying a box when she see's Kisa standing outside.# |
| Kagura: |
...Sacchan?
|
| Kagura: |
What're you doing here (in front of Akito's home)? |
| Kisa: |
Ah...
Um...
...Giving
...My support |
| Kagura: |
To whom? |
|
#Inside, Hiro stands in front of Akito who sits at a table reading a book.# |
| Akito: |
...
|
| Akito: |
Hiro's... |
|
*para* (turns the page) |
| Akito: |
As always, naively honest
And imprudent.
For all that
You're not particularly strong nor wise
You keep trying to hold on to your own dreams. |
| Hiro: |
...
That's... |
|
*slam* |
|
#Hiro jumps at the sound of Akito slamming the book shut, and Akito walks by# |
| Akito: |
That
Part
About you,
|
|
#Standing with her back to the window, Akito finishes by saying:# |
| Akito: |
...I
Didn't dislike it. |
|
#Haru, Yuki and Kyo talk on the roof at school.# |
| Yuki: |
"There's something I want to say"?
From Akito? |
| Haru: |
Yeah...
All of us (the 12shi) are to assemble. |
| Kyo: |
...By that
You mean me (the cat) too?
|
| Haru: |
Yeah... At the main house. |
| Yuki: |
When? |
| Haru: |
Next week. |
| Kyo: |
...... |
| Yuki: |
I wonder what (Akito) wants to talk about... |
| Haru: |
Who knows...
But...
Considering how Akito's been recently, it may not
Be anything bad... |
| Yuki: |
...Akito's
Changed recently...
|
| Yuki: |
After that incident
It seems like Akito's been fighting with a number of things
It also seems that the people "inside" are at a bit of a loss...
It sort of... |
| Haru: |
Serves them right...
|
|
*snickers
|
| Yuki: |
...Well yeah.
...But
I wonder
If (he's) fighting on his own... |
| Haru: |
...How's sensei doing...? |
| Yuki: |
Shigure?
It seems like he's been out a lot lately......
...Ah~~~? |
| Kyo: |
Wah |
| Haru: |
Ahh---... |
|
#Kyo is surprised by Yuki's sudden exclamation while both Yuki and Haru seem to have suddenly realised something.#
|
| Kyo: |
Wh-
What? So what about Shigure? |
| Yuki: |
No that's...
Ah
Tha~t's right. I forgot.
I just remembered when hearing the idiot's idiot voice. |
| Kyo: |
...You've been showing less and less mercy to me lately haven't you...? |
| Yuki: |
But they say that teasing... is a form of expressing affection...
Sorry...
I'm really sorry... |
| Kyo: |
Never mind that and just tell me already!! |
| Yuki: |
Honda-san's to be released from the hospital tomorrow.
Uotani-san had said.
|
| Kyo: |
Say that sooner!!! |
|
*bata bata bata bata* (Kyo runs off) |
| Yuki: |
Sorry...
I'm really sorry...
*kusu kusu kusu kusu* (laughs) |
| Haru: |
Come to think of it...
They're supposed to tear down
That secluded building.
I wonder if.... he'll be a bit freer
and if he'll be able to be together with Honda-san now...?
|
| Yuki: |
Yeah... |
| Yuki: |
It must be nice
Those two-... |
|
*bata bata bata bata* |
|
#Kyo runs to the classroom where Arisa and Saki are sitting together.# |
| Kyo: |
I heard!! She's being released!?
It's all right, right!?
I can go to meet her right!?
*pants* |
| Arisa: |
That Prince, he's already told him...
Talk about soft |
| Saki: |
That's no fun... |
| Kyo: |
It's all right, right!? |
| Arisa: |
Huh~~
Boy you're annoying, all right already.
But
|
| Arisa: |
Don't regret it if she ends up running away, okay?
Afterall, she thinks she's been rejected...... |
| Kyo: |
.........
...It's
It's all right. I'll do my best. |
| Arisa: |
In that case, do your best now.
Which do you think would suit her, Kyon? |
|
*basa* |
|
#Arisa holds a catalogue in front of Kyo# |
| Kyo: |
Clothes? |
| Arisa: |
We were thinking of giving her a present to celebrate her being released. |
| Kyo: |
...
...Well
I... don't really know... about...
girl's clothing...
So any of them... |
| Arisa: |
Hey he~y
This is another aspect to being a man you know? |
| Kyo: |
R-
Really...?
Isn't it a bit dirty old mannish...? |
| Arisa: |
Ah
But before that,
|
| Arisa: |
If she knew you'd chosen it...
She might not wear it |
| Saki: |
My, how awful... |
|
Afterall, she thinks she's been rejected............ |
| Kyo: |
......... |

#Outside the student council room Machi talks to Yuki before he can go in.# |
| Yuki: |
I envy |
| Sign: |
Student Council Room |
| Yuki: |
Those two |
| Machi: |
President.
I've finished
taking care of the books.
...?
President?
|
| Yuki: |
...Yeah.
Thank you.
That was fast. |
| Machi: |
...I
Pushed myself a bit. |
| Yuki: |
...Honda-san
Already knows
That Kyo is different
Compared to
Normal human beings,
But
I
|
|
#Before Machi can go into the Student Council room, Yuki grabs her arm surprising her.# |
| Yuki: |
...Machi
......
...I
If
I......
|
| Kimi: |
He~y?
Have you seen Kimi's brush? |
|
*kacha* (opens door)
*BAN* (Machi jerks away from Yuki and hits the wall) |
| Kakeru: |
Maybe you just forgot it at home~? |
| Kimi: |
Eh~~?
But, that's the one I always carry with me?
Hey, have you seen it Machi? |
| Machi: |
No.
Not at all. |
| Kimi: |
How about you Yunyun?
Have you seen it? |
| Yuki: |
...
I haven't seen it... |
| Kimi: |
Ehhhh~?
I wonder where it could be~? |
| Yuki: |
I
|
| Yuki: |
Have to tell her
If I want us to always be together.
About that something that I don't know
If she'll be able to accept. |
|
#At night, Shigure flips through a book while Akito stands staring out the window.# |
| Shigure: |
What are you going to do
Gathering everyone together?
Did you want to have a banquet? |
| Akito: |
...
|
| Akito: |
I'm going to make it the "end"... |
| Akito: |
Say
What needs to be said |
| (Hiro:) |
(...I
I've
Been released
From the curse.) |
| Akito: |
All of it... |
| Shigure: |
...
I see.
If it makes you happy
Then that's great. |
| Akito: |
...
...You
Probably feel relieved, don't you...
|
| Akito: |
Being freed... from me.
You should
Hurry up and go away...
Me too, if it means
Being freed of your sarcasm...
It'll be a relief.
...I'm sick of
Being
Made a fool of... |
| Shigure: |
...
Your short-temperedness isn't so quickly changed is it. |
| Akito: |
!
That's why that... |
| Shigure: |
I'm not "making a fool" of you |
|
*gasa* (sets bag down)
|
| Shigure: |
I'm "giving you a hard time"
You shouldn't get that sort of thing wrong. |
| Akito: |
......... |
| Shigure: |
Also, this.
It's a present.
To commemorate *parting*. |
|
#Shigure smiles gently at Akito, who looks distressed.#
#The next morning, Kyo walks down the street towards the hospital#
|
| Kyo: |
[...Not good]
|
| Kyo: |
[For some reason
I'm getting really nervous...] |
| Kyo: |
I finally get to see her...
Ah, maybe it's nervousness because I finally get to see her?
This really isn't good.
I'm really getting more and more nervous........ |
| Kyo: |
[It's a good thing that guy's not seeing me like this.] |
|
#Kyo remembers what happened at the house a short while ago.# |
| Yuki: |
Hey...
I said hey! |
|
*jumps* |
| Kyo: |
Eh!? |
| Yuki: |
Shouldn't you be going soon?
You're going to meet Honda-san aren't you?
|
| Kyo: |
......
What about you? |
| Yuki: |
I'll refrain.
You don't want anyone to interfere in your finally being able to see her again right? |
| Kyo: |
Not- |
| Yuki: |
Not to mention
...I have something really important
To take care of.
Do your best not to screw up
And go like your usual stupid self. |
| Kyo: |
Ah----... Yeah, yeah... |
| Kyo: |
[That's right.
Be "the same as always"
But] |
| Kyo: |
Just how was "the same as always"?
How did I act with her before...?
Eh?
For some reason, I don't really know anymore... |
| Kyo: |
[For one thing]
|
| Kyo: |
[Will she still accept me, even now?
After something like that had happened
Thinking that she'd been rejected
.........And me?
Do I really
Love her even now?
What part of her do I love?
What about her do I love?
How much--]

#Kyo finally reaches the hospital and see Arisa and Saki standing outside. Saki's holding the bunny that Momiji had given Tohru while Arisa gestures at someone to come over. Kyo turns and sees Tohru walking towards Saki and Arisa#
|
|
#Tohru, holding some papers walks towards her friends when she notices Kyo# |
| Kyo: |
Aa
I see.
That doesn't matter
At all.
|
| Kyo: |
I love her.
I do love her.
I just
Love her. |
| Kyo: |
...Tohru
|
| Kyo: |
So very much*.
* lit "to the point of dying" |
| Tohru: |
...... |
|
#Tohru flushes and tears come to her eyes.# |
|
*FLEES*
|
|
#Arisa, Saki and Kyo watch as Tohru runs away. Kyo falls to his knees stunned.#
|
| Kyo: |
Ahahahahahahahah
Well, that really is an incredible go at running away...... |
|
*fuhya~~* |
| Arisa: |
You can't do anything but laugh. |
| Saki: |
I too want to hold my stomach from laughter... |
| Kyo: |
...
Dammit... |
|
*gets up* |
| Kyo: |
I'm the faster runner! |
|
*runs after* |
|
#Arisa and Saki watch as Kyo runs after Tohru#
|
| Kyo: |
I won't let you get away |
|
#At home, Yuki sits at the table and makes a phone call.# |
| Yuki: |
Ah...
Machi?
...Good morning.
I'm sorry to call you so suddenly.
Were you asleep?
......
Yeah...
Hey...
Are you
Free... any time today?
...Yeah
There's
Something
|
| Yuki: |
That I
Absolutely
Wanted to tell you... |
| Kyo: |
It kills me... |
|
#Back on the street Kyo continues to chase after Tohru. Getting annoyed...# |
| Kyo: |
...
Or rather... |
| Kyo: |
It kills me...
|
| Kyo: |
How much I want her to be mine. |
| Kyo: |
A person who's just recovered shouldn't be running all out like this!! |
| Banner: |
Yuki, and Kyo too - A happy future doesn't come if you just wait, so grasp tomorrow in your hands!!
