"{1}"  =  Opponent's opening message

"{2}"  =  Player's victory message

"{A}"  =  {2} messages said to opponents when their {1} script is the type
          that is located at the bottom of this part of 02'00.


* - The "Sisters" are dressed in nun attire.

    On days 1, 2, 4, and 5, the player chooses an opponent from a set of three
    random characters. Each playable character has predetermined opponents for
    days 3, 6, 7, and 8, so those opponents will not appear in the random sets.
    The character being played will not be fought at any time.

    Bad Ending : Win the final battle via depleting the available time
    Good Ending: Win the final battle via depleting the enemy's health


* - This is the {1} script that is triggered due to prior battles. If the player
    defeats both of the characters that Heart and Kamui can mention, then they
    will refer to the one encountered first. Which of these messages can be
    triggered with a given character is noted by that character's {A} script.

Heart     : Stop! You're the one who was bullying Mao-Mao! I think you owe
            my friend an apology! Didn't anyone ever teach you to love people
            instead of bullying them!?

Heart     : Stop! You're the one who was bullying Saki! I think you owe
            my friend an apology! Didn't anyone ever teach you to love people
            instead of bullying them!?

Kamui     : You are the one who harmed Konoha. Apparently, you did not foresee
            the consequences of this! I will have you atone. Prepare yourself!

Kamui     : I did not think the day would ever come when someone would actually
            defeat the Kasuga Family... I'm not sure what technique you used,
            but I must defend the Kasuga's honor. Accept my challenge.

Kira      : Did you hurt Mei-Fang!? Her creator and I are colleagues...
            I owe her some professional courtesy! You should be more careful
            when choosing your enemies! You will pay with your life,
            foolish peasant!

Konoha    : You hurt Miss Kamui! This is unforgivable! Konoha, the Millennium
            Guard, must avenge Miss Kamui's defeat! Get rrrrrrrrrready!
            Ruff-ruff!

Lieselotte: Heart Aino vas mein mark. How am I supposed to capture her
            if you beat me to it? Nein, zis ist unacceptable.

Lilica    : Look, you totally went postal on my friend Yoriko... and Mike too,
            I guess... What's your deal!? I thought I'd get to relax today,
            but now I gotta teach you a lesson!

Maori     : The Thousand Years Protector was defeated? I still can barely
            believe this has happened... I don't know the outcome, but as head
            of the Kasuga Family, it is my duty to purify you.

Mei-Fang  : Ever since I arrived in Japan, Kira has been like a friend to me.
            The Professor programmed me to repay kindness and do the right
            thing. I will fight you, for Kira's sake.

Saki      : I've been waiting for you. What did you do to Heart? I'm sorry,
            but after what you did to my friend, I'm not going easy on you!

Yoriko    : Yo: Huh? YOU'RE the one who hurt Lilica!? How could you do
                such a horrible thing!?

            Mi: Yoriko, don't try to stop me. I'm so angry right now
                I'm going to gnaw this idiot's eyes out!

* - Ministry of Elemental Affairs:

Sister    : The most recent readings show the dimensional bend over Tokyo
            is increasing rapidly. Satellite scans reveal the boundary will
            enter meltdown in approximately 200 hours, just over 8 days.

? ? ?     : Excellent work, Sister. Continue the analysis, and report to me
            if any changes occur.

Sister    : Yes. I shall resume my observations. You can count on us.

? ? ?     : Failure is not an option. We must succeed, for the sake of
            a new and better world...


* - Floating Palace:

<game>    : Fiona Mayfield disappeared in England two years ago, never to be
            seen again. This was the 'Mayfield Incident.' A bend in the
            dimensional boundary between our world and the Elemental world
            caused a rift that swallowed her.

            Thrust into the world of the Elementals, Fiona finds herself
            becoming one of them and struggles to return...

Fiona     : Milady told me to just leave it all to her, and she'd get me home.
            However, I need to do this for myself!

#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$

Kamui     :{1} Fiona Mayfield...? Why are you here? This doesn't seem to
               line up with what the MEA told me...

           {2} To be honest, I don't really know what happened to me either.
               All I know is that... I'm here.

Konoha    :{1} Oh, a maid! ...But why does she have such a large sword?
               Konoha wonders if she sweeps with that sword...

           {2} Aw, wait, I just wanted to play with you...! You remind me of
               my puppy back home...

Lieselotte:{1} You too are in mein vay.

           {2} What? I thought you were on our side...? What's going on?

Lilica    :{1} Maid outfit, huh? Looks like SOMEONE is trying to keep up with
               fashion...! Hey, what's with the sword!?

           {2} You know, if I had wheels on MY shoes, it'd make cleaning
               the castle a lot easier... Oh, but how would I stop...?

Maori     :{1} A sword of that size... in the shrine? I'm sorry, but those
               aren't allowed in here...

           {2} Y-You're a Miko? A Japanese priestess? Can I ask you something!?
               Wh-Where can I get a costume like that?

Mei-Fang  :{1} This query will not take long. Please share any information
               you have on the Professor's location.

           {2} The Professor? You mean Mei Ling Hua? I believe she's assisting
               Milady right now. Y-You're not allowed up there...

Yoriko    :{1} You don't have to prove anything, Mike. I believe you're a
               Demon King! Huh? That girl's evil!? You sure!?

           {2} Demon King? Really!? In fairy tales, don't you lot usually
               look more... respectable!? You ruin my fantasy...


* - Kamui (Konoha/Maori), Konoha, Lilica, Maori, Mei-Fang, Yoriko:

Fiona     :{A} Oh, uh, I'm sorry about that...

           {B} I really wish you wouldn't just blame me... I know I was in
               the wrong, but I don't think I was the only one...

           {C} I promise, I'll stop by your home later and apologize over
               a nice glass of tea...


#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#
$#  Day 3: Battle  #$
#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#

Kira      : You! Lazy maid! Shouldn't you be out cleaning, and not relaxing
            by MY pool? I hate useless servants...

Fiona     : I'm not your servant! ...And it's not nice to pick a fight
            just because you don't like maids!

Kira      : Are you talking back to Dr. Kira!? One day, you'll be working
            for ME! I think someone should teach you manners!

Fiona     : I assure you, there's nothing wrong with my manners. And no,
            I won't work for you! I already have a mistress.


* - After the battle:

Fiona     : *sigh* My mistress will be so proud I didn't lose!

Kira      : How did the great Dr. Kira lose to a maid!? I won't forget this...
            ever! YOU WORTHLESS BRAT!

Fiona     : *gasp* 'Brat'!? Y-You're aware I'm older than you, right!?

Kira      : Don't mock me! I'm Dr. Kira, and when I take over the world,
            I'll abolish all you insolent maids!

#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$

* - Ministry of Elemental Affairs:

Sister    : Most recent reports show the rift will face full meltdown within
            84 hours. We have planned for all current external stimuli,
            as long as there are no unexpected events.

? ? ?     : Unexpected events? What could possibly happen! Carry on, Sister.
            I must rest and prepare for zero hour.

Fiona     : Milady!

* - ???, a blonde-haired woman, holds Fiona's face to her bosom.

? ? ?     : Fiona, you're early. Have you finished the preparations already?

Fiona     : Yes, Milady, just as you said. We can unfold the magic barrier
            above Tokyo any time.

? ? ?     : I see. Thank you. Come, Fiona, shall we rest in preparation
            of the ritual?

Fiona     : Yes, of course... *yawn* That would be a... good... idea...

Saki      : ...Fiona?

Fiona     : Saki!? Is that you? C-Can you see me?

Saki      : O-Of course I can see you...! Fiona...? How is this possible...?
            Please, tell me this isn't a dream!

Fiona     : You're not dreaming, Saki. It's really me! I've missed you
            so much It's been so long... I'm sorry I worried you so much.
            I should have come to see you earlier...

Saki      : ...No! They said you were gone! You can't be real...
            You're just an illusion!


* - After the battle:

Fiona     : Saki, are you alright? Listen to me... I think I'm a spirit now
            or something. Most people can't see me... Only you and a few other
            girls have been able to see me! I'm so happy you're here~! 

Saki      : Wait, you ARE real!? Fiona! Where have you been for the past
            two years!? What have you been doing!?

Fiona     : Sweeping, mostly. But Milady has been helping me regain my human
            self again... She's very kind to me. So, next time I see you,
            it'll be for good! Oh, I can't wait to be human again!

$#  Day 7: Start  #$
#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$

* - A flying island can be seen in the sky.

Reporter  : This is Shizuka Hyodo with a special report on the object that
            appeared in the skies over Tokyo.

            Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, Richard, it's a mysterious
            floating castle. We will have round-the-clock updates as more
            information surfaces. Back to you in the studio.


#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#
$#  Day 7: Battle  #$
#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#

Reporter  : Shizuka Hyodo, still on the scene! What we're witnessing here is
            just too incredible to describe! Richard, just moments ago,
            a strange flash of light shot up to the castle from the streets
            below.

            We've talked with some witnesses who claim it was a young girl,
            but we have no confirmation on that yet. That light moved too
            fast for us to determine what it really was. I guess only time
            will tell...


* - Floating Palace:

Heart     : This place is abnormous... I wonder if I'm lost. Hey, how you do
            even know when you're lost...?

Fiona     : Oh my, a visitor! I'm sorry, Miss, but I can't let you pass through
            here. Milady would be ever so mad at me.

Heart     : Oh, the maid of the castle! What lovely timing! Can you tell me
            how to get to the weird sky over this place?

Fiona     : I-I told you, you're not allowed to trespass here! Please, leave!
            Nooooo, get out of here!


* - After the battle:

Fiona     : I'm sorry, but I have my orders from Milady. Please follow me,
            and I'll show you the way out.

Heart     : Hey, quit that! I can walk, you know! Dragging me isn't very
            lovely...

Fiona     : *drag, drag, drag* Please come again some other day,
            we do love visitors! *throw*

            Oh, Milady will be so happy with me. I hope... I should go see
            what she is up to...

$#  Day 8: Battle  #$
#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#

* - Above Tokyo, Mildred Avalon:

    Two rows of Sisters stand before Mildred, the woman seen with Fiona.

          : Holy, Holy, Elementals... You who gained wings to explore
            the heavens... You who gained the eternal halo... Holy, Holy,
            Elementals... Create in us the True World.

Mildred   : Fiona, what's wrong? Why are you here? I thought I told you to
            stay away?

Fiona     : Yes, Milady, but... I saw my friend Saki. I was so happy to
            see her... I just wanted to ask if... you'd found a way to
            make me human again... Like you promised...

Mildred   : Fiona, I never promised to return you to the human world.
            Remember my words, girl. What did I say?

Fiona     : You said, 'There's a way you can be together with everyone again.'
            I remember it clearly, Milady.

Mildred   : Today is the day, Fiona. We've been preparing for it...
            Everyone in the world will become just like you.

Fiona     : Um, well, I don't really know what you mean, Milady...

Mildred   : It's alright. The ritual will be starting soon, and there's nothing
            left for you to do, now...

* - A battle begins, during which Mildred is encased by an object that
    resembles a mechanical insect.



* - If the battle is lost:

Fiona     : Milady! Please! Please wait!

Mildred   : Ha ha ha, I've never felt so alive! The world seems so vivid!
            I see now what it's like to evolve. All other life is inferior!
            You're dirt--No, LESS than dirt! No one can stop the worlds
            from merging, now!

            My thanks to you, Fiona, for your help. Now, would you like to
            celebrate my rebirth with me? Ha ha ha ha...!

Fiona     : Milady, the only good thing I've experienced since I was changed
            into this body was meeting you... I'll never forget how warm your
            hands were... and today, it's my turn to save YOU!


* - If the battle is won:

Fiona     : W-W-Wait, Milady!

Mildred   : Fiona, why do you keep bothering me? Why are you trampling all over
            my ritual to become an Archangel?

Fiona     : Huh? Milady, please, think about this. Do you really want to be
            like me?

Mildred   : Of course. And not just me... Everyone in the world will evolve
            into higher beings.

            ...It's unfortunate, Fiona, but I could only be a Maiden for
            so long. There wasn't much time to act... I know it's a little
            late, but thank you. You've done a lot for me, and I'll never
            forget you.

Fiona      : Milady, I didn't... I didn't think things would end up this way!

Mildred   : Hahahahaha! You're out of time. The distortion between the worlds
            has reached its limit! Can you feel it? Can you feel the boundary
            between our worlds disappearing?

Fiona     : Milady, please... This is enough already... Nobody wants this...

Mildred   : I'll become a being like you, Fiona, and maybe then I'll understand
            your feelings...

Fiona     : You'll realize one day how lonely and empty it feels. I had fun
            at first, but... now...

Mildred   : Oh, Fiona... As the power fills me and my body evolves,
            I don't see how you could say such things...

Fiona     : By the time you realize it, it'll be too late, Milady!
            I'll stop you, no matter what it takes!

Mildred   : It grieves me that you've grown so apart from me, Fiona...

Fiona     : Forgive me... Milady...

* - Mildred disappears.

Saki      : Fiona...? Fiona! What happened!? You're injured...

Fiona     : Saki, I couldn't stop... Milady...

            Do you remember when we went to the mountain of spirits...
            even when everyone said not to...? Saki... I was transported away,
            in a mist of light, and you were... gone. I don't ever want to be
            alone again...

Saki      : It's alright, Fiona... I won't let go of you this time.
            And don't you let go of my hand, either...


Reporter  : Richard, I'm not sure what's happening. There's a strange light
            coming from the top of the castle... It's getting brighter and
            brighter by the minute. I think--What!? Huh!? Richard, it's no
            longer safe here. Everybody, if you're still watching,
            get out of Tokyo! Dear God... RUN!

* - The battle takes a considerable toll on Mildred's clothing, notably rending
    her corset and tearing her shirt down the middle, allowing her plump breasts
    to push it aside.

Mildred   : ...F-Fiona... I... can't... be... What's... What is...? I see...
            a light... It's so... bright...


Fiona     : *sob* Milady...

Saki      : Fiona!? Get ahold [sic] of yourself! You're not going to disappear
            in front of me again, are you!?

Fiona     : Saki...? Hee-hee, no, I don't want a repeat of what happened
            last time...


Reporter  : Wha-What's happening!? The castle appears to be shaking! Richard,
            I can feel the vibrations from all the way down here. They must be
            powerful.

            Oh no! The castle's falling! This could be a disaster.
            Oh the humanity!


<game>    : Meanwhile, Inside the Castle

Saki      : Fiona, what's wrong? Hurry!

Fiona     : I'm sorry, Saki, but I can't go any further.

Saki      : Wh-What do you mean? You're finally back!

Fiona     : I'm so happy to see you again after so long... But this world's
            atmosphere can't support us Elementals for very long... I need to
            return to the Elemental world, with the castle.

Saki      : No, Fiona... Don't...

Fiona     : Even the ancient Mr. Dragon told me he didn't know if I could ever
            be human again... And Milady's methods didn't quite work, either...

            But don't worry, Saki! I'm not giving up! I'll do whatever I can
            to come home again, one day!

Saki      : But... are you really going to be alright? Are you still clumsy
            in the other world, too...?

Fiona     : Hey, that's not nice! I'm not... THAT clumsy...

Saki      : Fiona... I'll be waiting. I promise you, I'll never forget you...!

Fiona     : Just you wait, Saki! I'll be back again one day! Wait for me!

* - Some time later, Fiona is seen walking about with a map in a forest,
    in the presence of a fairy and a sword-carrying dragon.

Fiona     : Well, there weren't any clues in the Forest of Wandering Willows...
            I guess I can put an 'X' over this forest on Mr. Dragon's map.

            Well, my next stop should probably be this over here...
            'The Valley of Forgotten Perils.' Frightening...!

            Alright, well, I guess there's no choice but to check every
            destination! I made Saki a promise I'd return!

Reporter  : This is Shizuka Hyodo with a special report on the object that
            appeared in the skies over Tokyo.

            Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, Richard, it's a mysterious
            floating castle. We will have round-the-clock updates as more
            information surfaces. Back to you in the studio.

            a strange flash of light shot up to the castle from the streets
            below.

            We've talked with some witnesses who claim it was a young girl,
            but we have no confirmation on that yet. That light moved too
            fast for us to determine what it really was. I guess only time
            will tell...

Fiona     : No, wait, please! I'm not allowed to let you pass...!

    Two rows of Sisters stand before Mildred, the woman seen with Fiona.

          : Holy, Holy, Elementals... You who gained wings to explore
            the heavens... You who gained the eternal halo... Holy, Holy,
            Elementals... Create in us the True World.

Mildred   : Heart Aino. To think, I've been trying to capture you all this
            time, and you just come here on your own! Welcome.

Heart     : Thanks... I guess... But I'm here to do something about that sky.
            Can you help me?

Mildred   : I'm afraid that request will go unanswered, but I WILL be needing
            a strong Maiden like you for my plan...

            You see, there're two worlds, my dear. There's our human world...
            and there's the world where the Elementals live. Tonight at sundown,
            the boundaries of these worlds will be stretched to their limit,
            and they'll merge! I'll be there to usher in a new age, and with
            the power of the Elemental world, I'll evolve into an Archangel!

Heart     : But that's just plain selfish! Don't you have any Love inside you?
            What about the lives you're endangering!?

Mildred   : Hahaha, that's a human concern! Angels are above your petty
            problems. I'll adorn my ascension with your blood!

* - Mildred initiates a battle, during which she is encased by an object
    that resembles a mechanical insect.


* - If the battle is lost:

Heart     : Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-What's going on!?

Mildred   : Ha ha ha, I've never felt so alive! The world seems so vivid!
            I see now what it's like to evolve. All other life is inferior!
            You're dirt--No, LESS than dirt! No one can stop the worlds
            from merging, now! Soon, my plans will be complete. I'll be
            the creator of a new world, and all will know my name!

            And of course, I'll be using your blood to complete the ritual,
            if that's alright with you... Ha ha ha!

Heart     : You're so self-centered. If you won't stop this, then I guess
            I have to puncherize you really hard~!


* - If the battle is won:

Heart     : You can't just shut yourself in and ignore the fate of the world.
            Give us back our sky!

Mildred   : Your skills as a Maiden are impressive, but the sacred ritual
            cannot be stopped.

            What is this feeling? Is this...? Is this what it's like to become
            an Archangel!? The power of the Elementals is within me!
            I am eternal!

            No one can stop the worlds from merging, now! Soon, my plans will
            be complete. I'll be the creator of a new world, and all will
            know my name!

Heart     : Then I guess it's up to me to stop you... in the name of Love~!

Heart     : Woah! What's happening? Everything is shaking and rumbling and...
            it's so weird!

Mildred   : The world is now evolving into its ancient state. I should get
            going. I'll be watching from above. You just stand there.
            I'll let YOU be the first person to enter this new world!

Heart     : N-No thanks! A-And can you please stop the weird stuff that's

<game>    : Kamui Tokinomiya, the Thousand Years Protector, has helped the
            world since ancient times. Long is her slumber, and heavy are her
            burdens. She awakes, sensing a bend in the boundary between worlds.

            With a brief report from the MEA, she heads into battle with her
            beloved blade at her side: Tamayorihime.

Kamui     : No matter what era... As long as there will be evildoers and
            scofflaws, I must continue my duties...

Heart     :{1} Saki is in trouble. I can't back off now! Love commands
               I pass through here.

           {2} Your powers can only get you so far. Some barriers require
               more than just Love to break.

Kira      :{1} A genius like me can recognize talent. I could use you as
               a sidekick! You should join me. That isn't a request!

           {2} The enthusiasm is commendable, but your technique bears
               the curse of youth. Pursue a path of peace, child.

Konoha    :{1} Woof! You do too much, Miss Kamui. Rest, and Konoha will
               bring you your slippers.

           {2} I have had enough of rest. Now is the time for action.
               Konoha, please rest while I take care of this...

Lieselotte:{1} You vill make a nice trophy indeed... I make you mein prey.

           {2} Such an evil, crimson gaze... I haven't seen horrors like this
               since the last World War...

Lilica    :{1} This is my turf. Move it or lose it.

           {2} Felchenerow's daughter, huh? *sigh* Seeing you grown up really
               makes me feel the passing of the years...

Maori     :{1} The Thousand Years Protector must be tired. Please, allow the
               Kasuga Family to take care of this.

           {2} Impressive are your family's skills. Your ancestors must be
               proud.

Mei-Fang  :{1} My information database tells me you are affiliated with the MEA.
               You must know where the Professor is.

           {2} My, how technology has changed since the last World War!
               I should really get an e-mail account...

Kamui     :{A} I meant your friend no harm. Please accept my apologies.

           {B} I know I cannot seek your forgiveness, but know that you and I
               fought because we had to.

Kamui     : I'd recognize that temper anywhere... Could it be...?

Mike      : Let go of me, Yoriko! She's the one to lame for my staff-infection!
            I want to gnaw her limb from limb!

Kamui     : Don't blame me for your misfortunes. Wise men say, the only thing
            to blame is blame itself. Ow, quit biting!


* - After the battle:

Kamui     : Allay your temper, Michelangelo. It was the Ministry of Elemental
            Affairs who ordered your body to be sealed.

Yoriko    : What!? I thought it was my fault... I thought I made a mistake
            with the incantation...

Mike      : You DID! But that's only half of it. Kamui is the one who separated
            my soul from my body! Damn you!

Kamui     : Learn to forgive and forget. It is better to bend like a reed

Saki      : Well, you transferred to our school but don't wear our uniform,
            and you carry a katana everywhere you go...

Kamui     : But I tied my hair back... I thought my disguise was foolproof...
            Oh well, I must prevent you from going any further. Return to your
            regular life.

Saki      : I don't know what you're talking about, but I can't back out now.

Kamui     : Go home, Saki. Forget about the Mayfield Incident. Forget about
            what's happening in the sky above.

Saki      : What...? How do you know about Fiona Mayfield...?

Kamui     : Fiona Mayfield disappeared two years ago. My reports name YOU as
            the only survivor of that incident. The MEA has briefed me on all
            these reports, and I'm sorry about your friend...

Saki      : I don't want to lose anyone else. That weird sky took Fiona away...

* - A flying island can be seen in the sky.

Reporter  : This is Shizuka Hyodo with a special report on the object that
            appeared in the skies over Tokyo.

            Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, Richard, it's a mysterious
            floating castle. We will have round-the-clock updates as more
            information surfaces. Back to you in the studio.


#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#
$#  Day 7: Battle  #$
#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#

Reporter  : Shizuka Hyodo, still on the scene! What we're witnessing here is
            just too incredible to describe! Richard, just moments ago,
            a strange flash of light shot up to the castle from the streets
            below.

            We've talked with some witnesses who claim it was a young girl,
            but we have no confirmation on that yet. That light moved too
            fast for us to determine what it really was. I guess only time
            will tell...


* - Floating Palace:

Fiona     : Excuse me, Miss. Thank you for visiting, but this castle is off
            limits. Can I ask you to leave?

Kamui     : Fiona Mayfield...? I see that you've become part of the Elemental
            world. No wonder you're classified as missing...

Fiona     : Huh!? 'Missing'!? Hey, how do you know who I am? Who are you?

Kamui     : I'm sorry, but I don't have time for this. Stand aside or face
            my blade.


* - After the battle:

Kamui     : That will do. For Miss Tsuzura's sake, I must end the battle here
            before I harm you further.

Fiona     : Tsuzura!? Y-You mean... Saki!? How is she? Is she alright?

Kamui     : Your friend is secure. You may speak with her if you want.
            Just put your mind to it, and you can do anything.

            Now, I must be going, before the dimensional bend becomes an
            even bigger problem.

#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#

* - Above Tokyo, Mildred Avalon:

    Two rows of Sisters stand before Mildred, the woman seen with Fiona.

          : Holy, Holy, Elementals... You who gained wings to explore
            the heavens... You who gained the eternal halo... Holy, Holy,
            Elementals... Create in us the True World.

Mildred   : Welcome, Kamui Tokinomiya. It is an honor to have the Thousand Years
            Protector try to thwart me!

Kamui     : Mildred Avalon. Director of the British MEA. You're attempting to
            trigger the boundary meltdown...

Mildred   : Well, it seems nothing gets past you.

Kamui     : You aren't the first person to try this. But the worlds must NOT
            be merged, Mildred. You'll lose your earthly form completely,
            like the Mayfield girl. You can't live your way out of that!

Mildred   : The next step in our evolution will be to shed our flesh and become
            higher beings. As the sun sets, the rift will open, and I shall be
            able to evolve into an Archangel. I won't let you ruin my plan!
            I'll use your blood to finish the ritual!

* - Mildred initiates a battle, during which she is encased by an object
    that resembles a mechanical insect.



* - If the battle is lost:

Kamui     : What is happening...? Is she... becoming an Archangel!?

Mildred   : Ha ha ha, I've never felt so alive! The world seems so vivid!
            I see now what it's like to evolve. All other life is inferior!
            You're dirt--No, LESS than dirt! No one can stop the worlds
            from merging, now! Soon, my plans will be complete. I'll be
            the creator of a new world, and all will know my name!

            And of course, I'll be using your blood to complete the ritual,
            if that's alright with you... Ha ha ha!

Kamui     : You're pathetic. Quit speaking of evolution and new life,
            now that you've decided to throw yours away!


* - If the battle is won:

Kamui     : There is still time to draw back. Reflect on your actions and
            let me set this right before it's too late.

Mildred   : Your skills as a Maiden are impressive, but the sacred ritual
            cannot be stopped.

            What is this feeling? Is this...? Is this what it's like to become
            an Archangel!? The power of the Elementals is within me!
            I am eternal!

            No one can stop the worlds from merging, now! Soon, my plans will
            be complete. I'll be the creator of a new world, and all will
            know my name!

Kamui     : You're a fool... And as the Thousand Years Protector, I must do
            everything in my power to save this world!


#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$
$#  Bad Ending  #$
#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$

Mildred   : Hahahahaha! You're out of time. The distortion between the worlds
            has reached its limit! Can you feel it? Can you feel the boundary
            between our worlds disappearing?

Kamui     : This is pitiful. The boundary between worlds is... starting to...
            melt...

Mildred   : The world is now evolving into its ancient state. I should get
            going. I'll be watching from above. You just stand there.
            I'll let YOU be the first person to enter this new world!

Kamui     : Mildred, please consider your actions wisely. This event will
            resonate throughout history.

Mildred   : You should thank me! After this world disappears, you won't have to
            be the Thousand Years Protector anymore!

* - Mildred disappears.

Kamui     : You... fool...!

Konoha    : Miss Kamui, are you alright?

Kamui     : Konoha... Please forgive me for the state we are in. I was weak...

Konoha    : Miss Kamui is speaking nonsense! Konoha is your Millennium Guard!
            Konoha will be by your side no matter what comes our way. Woof!

Kamui     : If I allow you to perish at my side, I am... not a worthy master...
            Whatever happens... let us be... as equals...


Reporter  : Richard, I'm not sure what's happening. There's a strange light
            coming from the top of the castle... It's getting brighter and
            brighter by the minute. I think--What!? Huh!? Richard, it's no
            longer safe here. Everybody, if you're still watching,
            get out of Tokyo! Dear God... RUN!

* - The battle takes a considerable toll on Mildred's clothing, notably rending
    her corset and tearing her shirt down the middle, allowing her plump breasts
    to push it aside.

Mildred   : This... can't... be... What's... What is...? I see... a light...
            It's so... bright...


Kamui     : Curious... The dimensional rift did not get out of control...
            It's as if some force prevented a full meltdown.

Konoha    : Miss K-Kamui! Konoha h-has come to fetch you! Are you alright!?

Kamui     : Good girl, Konoha. Be tranquil, for we shall not perish here.


Reporter  : Oh no! The castle's falling! This could be a disaster.
            Oh the humanity!

            Huh!?!? Richard, we here at ground zero can't explain it,
            but the castle just... disappeared...? I'm speechless, Richard.
            There is no explanation for this... (I KNEW I should've gone
            into nursing.)


<game>    : A Few Days Later

* - Castle Gardens:

Konoha    : Miss Kamui, that was AMAAAAAAAZING! Woof-woof! Konoha wishes she
            could have helped more... I'm sorry *sob*

Kamui     : Worry not. I have had more experience in battles of this sort.
            The Third Reich, the Divine Army, the--

            Pardon me. I should not speak so much of the past. It ages the soul
            to dwell on events of another era...

Konoha    : No, Konoha LOVES when Miss Kamui tells her about the past.
            What will we do now?

Kamui     : Although the incident has been amended, the aftershocks will be
            immense. Like ripples on a pond. We shall enjoy our brief respite
            and wait for the MEA to contact us.

Konoha    : Can Konoha perhaps come with Miss Kamui when she returns to
            her slumber?

Kamui     : To disobey time itself... Only one soul must bear this task.
            Knowing the ones you love will grow old and leave you is a pain
            I do not wish on even my enemies.

Konoha    : Konoha will stay with you always! Konoha will endure hardships
            alongside of you! Konoha will not leave you!

Kamui     : You have your whole life ahead of you, Konoha, and-- Wait!
            I sense something... The dimensional rift does not enjoy stability
            at this time. I fear an unearthly presence may escape...

            Let us save our talk for later. Our task is not yet over.
            Onward, Konoha! Mairuzo!

Konoha    : Woof-woof! Konoha will follow you!

Kamui     : There are lesser entities crossing over! We must keep them at bay
            and seal the rift before others come!

Konoha    : Yes, Miss Kamui! You can trust Konoha to guard your back! Woof!

Kamui     : Hear me, beings from the other realm. Our worlds are not prepared
            for an exchange of souls. If you will not heed my warnings, I must
            fight to protect this world. Please forgive my actions!

Maori     : ...Huh? I'm afraid I don't understand.

Kira      : The two media that a world leader needs to secure are broadcasting
            and religion. I claim this shrine.

Maori     : This shrine has prayed to Ohtsuchi since ancient times, and it would
            be heresy to stop. Please, you should go.

Kira      : 'Heresy'!? When I'm in charge, I'll decide what's right and wrong!
            Now, bow to me, you idiot!


* - After the battle:

Kira      : Ha! With the Kasuga Shrine, I'm one step closer to global
            domination! This place needs some remodeling, though.

Maori     : Global domination...? Kira, please, don't tread that path.
            You will only bring sorrow...

Kira      : On the contrary! I will give orders, and people will obey.
            It will be perfect, and everyone will be happy!

Maori     : The MEA has its eyes on you, and you will be classified as a
            dangerous person. Please, you must stop...

Kira      : Go lecture somewhere else. Actually, if you feel the need to
            lecture, spread the news about Dr. Kira!

            And make sure you get some paint and redo the sign out front.
            This place is now known as the 'Kira Shrine,' okay?

            just too incredible to describe! Richard, just moments ago,
            a strange flash of light shot up to the castle from the streets
            below.

            We've talked with some witnesses who claim it was a young girl,
            but we have no confirmation on that yet. That light moved too
            fast for us to determine what it really was. I guess only time

* - Floating Palace:

Fiona     : Miss, I'm afraid I must ask you and your... creature... to leave.

Kira      : I think I'll claim this castle... but it's filthy! Does that maid
            do anything all day? Lazy peasant!

Fiona     : Um, I'm sorry, but this castle is already spoken for by my mistress.
            Please, there's no trespassing today.

Kira      : Enough! You will address me as your 'Supreme Master.' When I'm
            in charge, there'll be no slacking on the job!


* - After the battle:

Kira      : We have battled for the rights to this castle, and you have lost.
            Now, grab your belongings and leave!

Fiona     : Wait, please! *sob* Nooooooooooooo! This castle isn't fully paid off
            yet! I was entrusted to keep this castle safe. If you steal it,
            she'll punish me...!

Kira      : That's enough back-talk! We overlords hire bumpkins like you

* - Above Tokyo, Mildred Avalon:

    Two rows of Sisters stand before Mildred, the woman seen with Fiona.

          : Holy, Holy, Elementals... You who gained wings to explore
            the heavens... You who gained the eternal halo... Holy, Holy,
            Elementals... Create in us the True World.

Mildred   : Welcome, Kira Daidohji. Let me introduce myself. I am Mildred
            Avalon. We spoke earlier...

            You never answered me earlier... Should I assume you've decided
            you want to help me, after all?

Kira      : No! This world is MINE to conquer! I've come here to stop you
            before you become even MORE delusional! If I allied with you,
            I'd be choosing the weaker path, and clearly, I'm much too smart
            for such a thing!

Mildred   : Foolish girl, you don't stand a chance. Thanks to Professor
            Mei Ling Hua, my plan is right on schedule.

Kira      : YOU kidnapped Mei Ling? (Hm... If I rescue her, she'll owe me big.
            It'd be nice with another brain on my team...)

Mildred   : Your confidence is so amusing, but you don't realize I'm about to
            become an Archangel! I cannot be stopped. I won't let you ruin
            my plan! I'll use your blood to finish the ritual!

* - Mildred initiates a battle, during which she is encased by an object
    that resembles a mechanical insect.



* - If the battle is lost:

Kira      : What sort of scheme are you plotting now? Your cowardice is
            actually pretty entertaining!

Mildred   : Ha ha ha, I've never felt so alive! The world seems so vivid!
            I see now what it's like to evolve. All other life is inferior!
            You're dirt--No, LESS than dirt! No one can stop the worlds
            from merging, now! Soon, my plans will be complete. I'll be
            the creator of a new world, and all will know my name!

            And of course, I'll be using your blood to complete the ritual,
            if that's alright with you... Ha ha ha!

Kira      : Your weirdness has just about reached immeasurability.
            Stop that unnecessary drivel and fight me!


* - If the battle is won:

Kira      : Ha! Now do you understand your rightful place? You should bow
            before me! ...Why aren't you bowing!?

Mildred   : Your skills as a Maiden are impressive, but the sacred ritual
            cannot be stopped.

            What is this feeling? Is this...? Is this what it's like to become
            an Archangel!? The power of the Elementals is within me!
            I am eternal!

            No one can stop the worlds from merging, now! Soon, my plans will
            be complete. I'll be the creator of a new world, and all will
            know my name!

Kira      : You can call yourself a 'creator' all you want, but until you've

Mildred   : Hahahahaha! You're out of time. The distortion between the worlds
            has reached its limit! Can you feel it? Can you feel the boundary
            between our worlds disappearing?

Kira      : Woah, this is serious...!

Mildred   : The world is now evolving into its ancient state. I should get
            going. I'll be watching from above. You just stand there.
            I'll let YOU be the first person to enter this new world!

Kira      : Who cares about glory when you're destroying the world I'm trying
            to conquer!?

Mildred   : Such defiance... I await our next battle in the new world!

* - Mildred disappears.

Kira      : New world? Old world? As long as it's a 'world,' I'll be in charge
            of it! Don't forget that!!!!!

* - Slightly later:

Kira      : The elemental flow diffusing into this world is stronger than
            electron discharges! This isn't good.

            Huh? Mei-Fang? Professor Mei Ling? What are you doing here?

Professor : Kira, we have a problem. Mei-Fang was damaged while looking for me.

Kira      : Then fix her! We don't have time to cry about spilled circuits!
            We need to get out of here. Now! To think... Nothing to do but
            run away... This is an ENORMOUS HUMILIATION!


Reporter  : Richard, I'm not sure what's happening. There's a strange light
            coming from the top of the castle... It's getting brighter and
            brighter by the minute. I think--What!? Huh!? Richard, it's no
            longer safe here. Everybody, if you're still watching,

* - The battle takes a considerable toll on Mildred's clothing, notably rending
    her corset and tearing her shirt down the middle, allowing her plump breasts
    to push it aside.

Mildred   : This... can't... be... What's... What is...? I see... a light...
            It's so... bright...


Kira      : What!? I can't move! This energy field is preventing my escape!
            No, I have a PhD! I can't die in a place like this!

* - Mei-Fang and Mei Ling approach.

Mei-Fang  : Kira saved the Professor. Now, it's my turn to save Kira.
            Engaging Tractor Beam Rescue Arm.

Kira      : I don't NEED to be rescued... But I guess I'll allow it,
            just this once.


Reporter  : Oh no! The castle's falling! This could be a disaster.
            Oh the humanity!

            Huh!?!? Richard, we here at ground zero can't explain it,
            but the castle just... disappeared...? I'm speechless, Richard.
            There is no explanation for this... (I KNEW I should've gone
            into nursing.)


<game>    : A Few Days Later

* - No location is displayed.

Kira      : I'm sure inquiring minds are DYING to know what's next for
            Dr. Kira Daidohji, right? Well, fine, I'll tell you.

            I'LL CAPSIZE THE CAPITALISTS AND CRUMPLE THE COMMUNISTS!
            'Civil rights'? More like 'civil WRONGS'! From this point forward,
            it's government OF the Kira, BY the Kira, and FOR THE KIRA!

            The time for hesitation is over! This is my time to shine!
            Nothing can stop me now! My knowledge in statistics and advanced
            calculus tells me I'll be in control of this country in one week!
            And after that, I'll face the world head on! My loyal subjects
            and I will force our way across the globe!

            And you two! Mei-Fang and Mei Ling hua! I GRANT YOU THE HONOR
            OF AIDING ME! You can watch me crush the opposition into a pulp!
            What do you say?

Professor : ...

Kira      : Huh? What's wrong? Everyone knows, you want to befriend world rulers
            EARLY in their career. You should be grateful!

Professor : Mei-Fang, stop her, please~

Mei-Fang  : Yes, Professor. Kira, forgive me.

Kira      : Huh? Forgive you for wh-- AAAAAAAAAGH! What are you... doing...?


Kira      : *groan* How did I get... home...? Who'd've thought they'd
            betray me...? How long was I asleep...?

* - Kira stands up outside of her house, by a world map hung from a pole.

Kira      : They thought a long rest would make me change my mind? And tattle-
            tailing on me to my grandparents would stop me? Well, they were
            wrong! I'll never abandon my mission! Mwa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
            ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! HA!

            As soon as I'm no longer grounded, I'm taking the fight to the

Konoha    : Konoha would like you to stop this, Miss Mildred...

Mildred   : Your skills as a Maiden are impressive, but the sacred ritual
            cannot be stopped.

            What is this feeling? Is this...? Is this what it's like to become
            an Archangel!? The power of the Elementals is within me!

            standing up!?

Konoha    : Woof...? Miss Kamui...? Why do you look so sad...?


Reporter  : Richard, I'm not sure what's happening. There's a strange light
            coming from the top of the castle... It's getting brighter and

Mildred   : This... can't... be... What's... What is...? I see... a light...
            It's so... bright...


Konoha    : Woof? Is Konoha falling...? It's hard to stand, like riding around

Kamui     : Konoha, I am here. Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you.

Konoha    : Miss Kamui! Konoha is coming~ Woof!

Kamui     : You fought bravely, but you need to recover now. Rest here.

            You did a good job, Konoha. I'd like to reward you...

Konoha    : Woof? Is this the truth!? Can Konoha request her reward?

Kamui     : If your wish is within my powers to grant it, I'll answer it,
            Konoha.

Konoha    : Could you pet Konoha and scratch her tummy for the rest of the day?
            And maybe for tomorrow?

Kamui     : I cannot grant you that much time. You must still rest, Konoha.

Konoha    : *squeak* Konoha is sad...

Kamui     : I'll pet you for a little bit, though, Konoha. *pet-pet-pet*

Konoha    : *whinny* Behind the ears, too, Miss Kamui. Your hands are so warm!

Kamui     : Alright. *pet-pet* Good girl...

Konoha    : Miss Kamui? Konoha's Grandmamma was also your Millennium Guard...
            Could you tell Konoha stories about her?

Kamui     : Very well. Where would you like me to start? *pet-pet-pet*

Konoha    : Wait, Konoha has one more request, too...

Kamui     : Very well, do not hold back.

Konoha    : Please, Miss Kamui, don't abandon Konoha and go away...

Kamui     : I will stay with you for as long as my time permits. But even after
            that, I'll always be with you. Always.

Konoha    : Woof Miss Kamui has made Konoha a promise!

Mildred   : You [sic] reward!? Don't make me laugh. I never intended on paying
            you. You were just a decoy to stop people from interfering with
            my plans.

            As the sun sets, the rift will open, and I shall be able to evolve
            into an Archangel. When the ritual is complete, our world will merge
            with the Elemental world. A new world shall be born! All I need is
            the blood of a powerful Maiden. Since you failed to deliver Heart's

           {2} Late for school? But we're, like, ALWAYS late for school.
               We should totally just ditch today!

Kira      :{1} I don't have time to waste on numbskulls and little freaks
               with wings! Let's have a REAL fight!

           {2} Huh? You should totally stop being so sketchy. Go find someone
               else to have a water fight with next time.

Konoha    :{1} Please take off those rolly-rolly shoes. Woof! You're ruining
               Konoha's training grounds.

           {2} What a trip, are you a dog-person? You're no demon, but you have
               powers? Did someone mess with your DNA?

Lieselotte:{1} A demon from ze Felchenerow bloodline. Your blood vill fetch
               a high price on ze black market.

           {2} Wow, like what a trip. Sorry to ruin your day, but you're totally
               not qualified to fight me. Later

Maori     :{1} Lilica, we're in the same class at school...but there's rules
               against demon blood in the shrine...

           {2} Rules, rules, rules. You should totally relax and stop being
               such a square. You're like a total cube.

Mei-Fang  :{1} I see no link between the demon clan and the Professor's
               disappearance, but if you know anything, please tell me.

           {2} Hey, I'm only HALF-demon! And no, Robot Lady, I don't know
               what you're talking about...

Saki      :{1} I don't have time to go skating with you, Lilica. Sorry...

           {2} Oh, c'mon, Saki...! You know, you should really lighten up
               a little and enjoy life... You know, like ME!

Lilica    : Mom left us 'cause Daddy works late every night... But I guess

Mike      : I heard Felchenerow works a desk job at some human company, now...

Lilica    : Huh? You're creeping me out, lady. Like, who are you?

Kamui     : Sorry to scare you. I heard he had a daughter, but this is the
            first time I've seen you. You do resemble him.

Lilica    : Great, thanks. So... how do you know my daddy...? And aren't you

Kamui     : I'm an acquaintance. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Lilica    : Great. Well... this is starting to turn into a serious snooze-fest,

* - After the battle:

Lilica    : You know, nowadays we have these things called 'laws' against

Kamui     : My sword won't harm your body. It can only pierce your soul...

Lilica    : That's hardly an excuse, lady-- Hey, wait! I remember Daddy telling
            me about you! He said to look for the girl with the blue bead in
            her hair and the katana. I think that's totally you, right?

Kamui     : Indeed. You see, this contest was pointless. I am not your enemy.
            If you are in trouble, I will protect you.

Reporter  : This is Shizuka Hyodo with a special report on the object that
            appeared in the skies over Tokyo.

            Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, Richard, it's a mysterious
            floating castle. We will have round-the-clock updates as more
            information surfaces. Back to you in the studio.

Reporter  : Shizuka Hyodo, still on the scene! What we're witnessing here is
            just too incredible to describe! Richard, just moments ago,
            a strange flash of light shot up to the castle from the streets
            below.

            We've talked with some witnesses who claim it was a young girl,
            but we have no confirmation on that yet. That light moved too
            fast for us to determine what it really was. I guess only time
            will tell...


* - Floating Palace:

Fiona     : Miss, I'm sorry, but I can't let you pass. And please, stop tracking
            mud through here on those skates...

Lilica    : Maybe you haven't heard of 'reverse psychology,' but you just made
            me want to come in here, like, even MORE!

Fiona     : What? Well, I guess if that's how your mind works, then... *ahem*
            Please, Miss, go on straight through!

Lilica    : Oh, for reals? Gee, thanks!

            already?

Fiona     : *sob* You're so mean to me! What'd I do to you? You aren't listening

#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#

* - Above Tokyo, Mildred Avalon:

    Two rows of Sisters stand before Mildred, the woman seen with Fiona.

          : Holy, Holy, Elementals... You who gained wings to explore
            the heavens... You who gained the eternal halo... Holy, Holy,
            Elementals... Create in us the True World.

Mildred    : Welcome, daughter of Felchenerow. I'm still waiting for your
             answer...

Lilica     : Oh, hey, were YOU the person with that 'I'm gonna create a
             new world' speech?

Mildred    : Yes. When that sun sets, this world and the world your father
             came from will merge into one, again. I'm sure your father,
             as a high demon, would agree with my plans... What do YOU say?

Lilica     : Huh? Oh, sorry, I totally spaced out there, what's going on again?
             That whole 'world-merging' thing, huh? I kinda like the world
             how it is, and I'm sure my dad does too. Sorry, but I'm gonna
             hafta stop you.

Mildred    : Your confidence is so amusing, but you don't realize I'm about to
             become an Archangel! I cannot be stopped. I won't let you ruin
             my plan! I'll use your blood to finish the ritual!

* - Mildred initiates a battle, during which she is encased by an object
    that resembles a mechanical insect.



* - If the battle is lost:

Lilica    : Ooops! This doesn't look so good...

Mildred   : Ha ha ha, I've never felt so alive! The world seems so vivid!
            I see now what it's like to evolve. All other life is inferior!
            You're dirt--No, LESS than dirt! No one can stop the worlds
            from merging, now! Soon, my plans will be complete. I'll be
            the creator of a new world, and all will know my name!

            And of course, I'll be using your blood to complete the ritual,
            if that's alright with you... Ha ha ha!

Lilica    : This is totally not cool. Didn't your parents teach you not to be
            such a pain...!?


* - If the battle is won:

Lilica    : I definitely told you to stop, didn't I? You totally shoulda
            listened to me, you know?

Mildred   : Your skills as a Maiden are impressive, but the sacred ritual
            cannot be stopped.

            What is this feeling? Is this...? Is this what it's like to become
            an Archangel!? The power of the Elementals is within me!
            I am eternal!

            No one can stop the worlds from merging, now! Soon, my plans will
            be complete. I'll be the creator of a new world, and all will
            know my name!

Lilica    : I don't know how to say this nicely, but you have some major issues
            or something...! You're gonna get hurt.


#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$
$#  Bad Ending  #$
#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$

Mildred   : Hahahahaha! You're out of time. The distortion between the worlds
            has reached its limit! Can you feel it? Can you feel the boundary
            between our worlds disappearing?

Lilica    : I-It's kinda cool... But, wow, it's strong! If a regular human
            touches this... that could really mess 'em up!

Mildred   : The world is now evolving into its ancient state. I should get
            going. I'll be watching from above. You just stand there.
            I'll let YOU be the first person to enter this new world!

Lilica    : No, wait, you totally are missing the point here! You're gonna kill
            us all! Me, Daddy, Yoriko, Mike... everyone!

Mildred   : Lilica Felchenerow, you and your demon father will kneel before me
            the next time we meet.

* - Mildred disappears.

Lilica    : Quit harshin' our world! Hey, you hear me!? Hello? Like, Earth to
            freak...? Fine, have it your way!

Yoriko    : Lilica, what's going on? Are you alright? Whoa, why are you in
            such a hurry!?

Lilica    : Run, Yoriko! Just get out of here! As far away as possible...
            leave Japan if you can! There's no time left. Mike, I'm entrusting
            you with her safety! Don't drop the ball on this one...!

Mike      : Alright, Yoriko, hold on to me. We're going to fly far away.
            (I wonder if there's time for doughnuts first...)

Lilica    : I totally shoulda mangled her when I had the chance... Aaaaargh!
            I'm so dumb...!


Reporter  : Richard, I'm not sure what's happening. There's a strange light
            coming from the top of the castle... It's getting brighter and
            brighter by the minute. I think--What!? Huh!? Richard, it's no
            longer safe here. Everybody, if you're still watching,
            get out of Tokyo! Dear God... RUN!

* - The battle takes a considerable toll on Mildred's clothing, notably rending
    her corset and tearing her shirt down the middle, allowing her plump breasts
    to push it aside.

Mildred   : This... can't... be... What's... What is...? I see... a light...
            It's so... bright...


Lilica    : Uh oh, I don't think I can fly right now... This doesn't look so
            good for me...

Yoriko    : Mike, hurry! Faster! I'll buy you doughnuts if you hurry!
            --Lilica, are you okay?

Lilica    : ...Yoriko? Mike? Talk about showing up in the nick of time!
            Thank you!


Reporter  : Oh no! The castle's falling! This could be a disaster.
            Oh the humanity!

            Huh!?!? Richard, we here at ground zero can't explain it,
            but the castle just... disappeared...? I'm speechless, Richard.
            There is no explanation for this... (I KNEW I should've gone
            into nursing.)

Yoriko    : I thought we'd find you here, Lilica.

Lilica    : Hm? Oh, hey, you two! What's up?

Yoriko    : Nothing, really... We looked all over for you at school today.
            I figured you'd be sleeping somewhere...

Mike      : So, we thought we'd find you here, instead.

Lilica    : Well, my mom came home last night, and my dad was so happy to
            see her... I just had to get away from them! They couldn't keep
            their hands off each other. Like, totally gross!

Yoriko    : Oh, did they make up? I'm so happy!

Lilica    : They fight a lot, but then they make up real fast. It's nothing new.

            Of course, my dad missed work to spend the day with her...
            You don't think he'll get fired or anything, right?

            Oh well, whatever. Is there anything fun to do? I don't wanna
            go home just yet...

Mike      : I wanted to go to the museum to see the Pharaoh's treasure
            exhibit... but Yoriko...

Yoriko    : Hey, it's not my fault! You used up all my allowance on doughnuts!
            It's YOUR fault we can't buy tickets, Mike!

Lilica    : Museum, huh? Sounds boring... But I guess it's something to do.
            It's not far away.

Mike      : It's good to know at least ONE of you has a spine! Good work,
            Lilica.

Yoriko    : Huh!? Wait, we're not sneaking in, are we...? But what if we're
            caught...!?

Lilica    : It's an adventure; don't worry so much. Besides, it's so much more
            exciting than waiting in line...

Yoriko    : Don't worry!? But... But...

Maori     : You have to understand that sometimes friends keep secrets from
            each other... Saki cares about you...

Maori     : Oh, Mao-Mao, now you have me even more worried! Is she in trouble!?
            I must use Love to rescue her!

Maori     : I'm sorry, Heart, but I can't say anything else...


* - After the battle:

Maori     : Heart, I know you're worried, but please let my sisters and I
            handle this... You mustn't get involved in this. Saki, either.
            This is too big for you two girls.

Heart     : But... Mao-Mao... She's my lovely-lovely friend! I NEED to help her!
            Can you help me help her?

Maori     : I promise you, the Kasuga Family will bring everything back to
            normal in just a couple more days...

Heart     : ...Okay. I trust you, Mao-Mao. But please... you be careful.
            You're my lovely-lovely friend, too...

Maori     : Don't worry, Heart. My sisters and I are trained for this sort of
            situation.

#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$

* - A flying island can be seen in the sky.

Reporter  : This is Shizuka Hyodo with a special report on the object that
            appeared in the skies over Tokyo.

            Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, Richard, it's a mysterious
            floating castle. We will have round-the-clock updates as more
            information surfaces. Back to you in the studio.

$#  Day 7: Battle  #$
#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#$#

Reporter  : Shizuka Hyodo, still on the scene! What we're witnessing here is
            just too incredible to describe! Richard, just moments ago,
            a strange flash of light shot up to the castle from the streets
            below.

            We've talked with some witnesses who claim it was a young girl,
            but we have no confirmation on that yet. That light moved too
            fast for us to determine what it really was. I guess only time
            will tell...


* - Floating Palace:

Fiona     : Excuse me, Miss, but I'm not supposed to let you pass. Allow me to
            show you the exit?

Maori     : I've been sent to investigate the bend in the dimensional boundary.
            I really can't go back, yet.

Fiona     : I'm sorry, but I was instructed not to let anyone through.

Maori     : I really don't want to do this, but if I have to force my way in,
            I will.


* - After the battle:

Maori     : This is the Kasuga Family's duty. Please forgive me.

Fiona     : Oh, no... Please, you can't pass through here. Go away...

Maori     : I am very sorry... But we must proceed. Please understand...
            If a dimensional rift opens between worlds, it will be a tragedy.
            The Kasuga Family must do its part.
