* Rurouni Kenshin Manga Translation *
* Chapter hundred and forty-four: Yumi . A sign of love *
"Here, Kaoru-san."
"Th... thank you."
(Aoiya, hacked into half by Fuji's big sword. Okina stands on a wrecked
roof and Misao takes another)
Misao: But this would not be all great! To have been demolished to such a
standard.
Okina: What be't! To put them two to two by the wars of past, 'tis indeed
pale in comparison.
"Hey! Two of you up there! Do not be carelessly stood at such dangerous
altitudes! Injuries are welcomed then!"
(Kaoru sits in deep thought holding a cup)
Hiko: Fretting much about that fellow?
(Kaoru snaps)
Hiko: Do not be so woefully inclined, the imparted Ama Kakeru Ryuu No
Hirameki be an Ougi undefeatable. Even if the direct force be avoided, the
tremendous suction shall thereafter enclamp the enemy's movement, whilst a
reverse attack may be used thereafter. However this mayst be only so too if
that fellow preserves a perfect form in good while performing so...
(Tensai Shishuo considers his Baka Deshi's abilities in doubt)
Kaoru: ... This I do conform to... but it does not matter... I place my
trust in him."
(Yahiko and Misao stares at Kaoru)
Misao: Truly so the unrest and worry not be fully casted away! But it is
something I mayst understand to relate to! Too me thinking of Aoshi-sama's
matters -----
Yahiko: This I myself do not make clear! How well so would these hidden
emotions lead to?
(Misao sends him her [here's another corny translation!] weird bird kick)
Okina: Love open or hidden shall differ in different which! Yahiko-kun. May
the love object be merely one, however the actions formed by one results in
a single variety.
Yahiko: (as he gets kicked) Cry what thee! How may you speak such words
without blush? Old-timer.
(back at the mountains)
(Shishio spits blood and flies into the air. Kenshin slips and falls to the
ground, supporting himself by his sword breathing in huge quantities, his
body already over the restrictions)
(Shishio slams to the ground and grits his teeth in pain)
Yumi: (staring at the wrist watch)
Sano: Decided... Ama Kakeru Ryuu No Hirameki...
Saitou: An effect seen indeed...
Aoshi: After the sword leaves the sheath, the first attack, added on to the
velocity spin from the second hack up's second attack. This second attack's
powress throws what I have experienced as first by far, and if standing
powers are still possible now, unless be a undying zombie...
(Shishio suddenly moves)
Shishio: Koo u u u uoo o o aaaa aaa aaAAAAH -------------!
(he spits, his eyes a complete white)
Sano, Saitou and Aoshi: (shocked) A sudden appearance of intensed pain...
Yumi: *Restricted boundary... !*
(she runs between Kenshin and Shishio)
Yumi: Stop! To further this fight proves nothing at all! Shishio-sama's
illness evolved from the fire related business before, to be able to fight
fully for merely fifteen minutes only so!
(Kenshin's shocked expression)
Yumi: (kneeling in front of Kenshin) Stop it all! Do not let Shishio-sama
prolong the suffering and pain!
(Kenshin is hesitant)
Yumi: I prithee please...
(she holds up her arms in protection of the Shishio behind her)
(Kenshin releases his grasp on his sakabatou)
Shishio: Thou art too naive! Battousai! The match hath not been resolved!
(a sword pierces through. Kenshin and Yumi are shocked at the same time)
(Shishio had pierced through Yumi to Kenshin's chest region)
(Kenshin's blood spurts out and starts falling behind in a state of shock.
Yumi's dying eyes reflect merely of Kenshin's falling shadow)
Kenshin slams to the floor: Ku!
(Shishio catches Yumi)
Kenshin: Shishi... o... thou viling fellow... a betray for thy most beloved
female for the timely victory not!
Shishio: (supports Yumi's chin) ... Betrayal? If you do not understand then
stay and do not speak. (brings himself closer to Yumi's head) She be the
one more of understanding me than not, and I be the one more of
understanding her than not.
Yumi: So... happy... first... battle to... have success... moreover within
the most... important battle... to Shishio-sama...
(she smiles)
Yumi: Moreoften than... not... do I be envious of... the little kid and...
Kamatari... to be able to fulfill... their help in fights... for
Shishio-sama... whilst I may only... take care of Shishio-sama's... health
and body... with all utmost... regrets and hatred... looking down on...
myself... but... now it... differs...
(silence by the dying's side)
Yumi: Thou must reign supreme... Shishio-sama... (turns to look at Shishio)
Yumi... shall arrive in Sheol... to await your arrival...
(she expires under tears of happiness)
Hoji: Komagata Yumi... female of misfortune to have captured her final
happiness in her final moments...
Kenshin: Foolishness! How more happy couldst a dead man get! 'Tis the
ultimate error... !
(Kenshin's wound starts squirting blood again and he falls painfully to
the ground)
Shishio: Between you and I, let us not discuss matters of them else! He who
stands to deliver a blow, to be able to hold out till the end shall have
the true triumph in this match!
(Kenshin's hands are unable to stop the bleeding)
Kaoru: Kenshin...
(she stares at the sky... as if feeling something...)
