Hana to Yume
2000 vol. 14, episode no. 82
Translation by Yuki-chan
Episode title page...? Well it's a bit on the ecchi side... It features Tsukasa and Ryuji, who are both clothed but their position is on the sexy side...
Text: From here on no kids allowed... [I'll leave the rest up to your imagination...]
Akira: "------..." He frowns as he examines his police cruiser. {...What's this......? Why is the trunk open......... And on top of that, why is a huge batch of the counter drug missing? Who could have......} He thinks a minute and sweat beads the side of his face. An image of Munakata pops into his mind. "......" A shadow passes over his face. {...C... Could it be---...}
Akira's phone rings all of the sudden. It's a different sound from before. He switches it on.
Akira: "...Kise here." He listens for a moment. His face crumples all of the sudden. "!! Munakata-san!! Where did you disappear to------!!? E!? WHAT---!?"
Back in the terminal, Munakata switches off his phone, his ear ringing. [Both he and Akira have the ear-piece like type of phone which has a small mike on it].
Munakata: "...Man... That guy (Kise) is getting increasingly hisuterikku every day." {It's like I'm being scolded by a superior. He did hear my request I hope.} [hisuterikku = hysteric. This is grammatically incorrect since it should be hysterical. When English words are introduced into Japanese, often grammar is ignored. Now you know why FFVIII's song "Eyes on Me" has screwed up lyrics. Now you know why some Japanese people have really strange English. Now you know why I have so much trouble translating (T_T)]
Asago, with her arms crossed: "Anyone working in combo with you would become hisuterikku. Helping out the gokudo like this. Are you aware of your duty as a cop!?"
Munakata: "...Well yeah but,"
Text pointing to Munakata's speech bubble: Liar.
Munakata: "Sneaking into enemy territory alone seems interesting so I followed."
Asago gives him an exasperated look.
Munakata smiles slyly: "A. You just thought that was kakkoii." {The way I live.}
Asago yells back at him: "I'm amazed at your way thinking!!"
Tsukasa: "...Ryuji, you're pretty cut up. ...Are you all right...?" Asago and Munakata turn at her voice.
Ryuji: "...Aa..."
This picture must be described... Tsukasa has her hand up to Ryuji's cheek, and Ryuji has his hand on hers. There are sparkles in the background... They're looking lovingly into each others eyes... [Oomaiga~~~~!!]
Tsukasa: {...If I was by his side, I wouldn't have let him get so injured...}
Ryuji: "...It's nothing... I was just able to follow their movements with my eyes..." {If it was like Rui's level, then even I would have been toast...}
Asago, sweat dropping: "......" {...What... an out-of-this-world conversation......} [Asago's really matured, since she's not about to blow Tsukasa away with her gun... Or maybe it's because of her feelings for a certain cop...]
Munakata looks on in confusion: {......What's with those two...? Are they homo...?}
Tsukasa: "...Still, you were insane for coming in alone." Shiki, who's in the background is slowly trying to sneak away. "......"
Tsukasa: "How many were there?" She doesn't flinch or anything while Ryuji's hand is on hers.
Ryuji: "Four of them." In the background, Shiki is seen to be slowly backing off.
Tsukasa: {...4... 4...!? WHAT!? That's more then when I---!!!} She's referring to the time when Shiki had brought 3 druggies with him to launch an attack on Tsukasa in front of her brothers' apartment. {And Ryuji...! His left arm is injured......!!}
Ryuji notices a change in Tsukasa's facial expression. "...? What's,"
Tsukasa anger boils over. "What's this!! These tiny tears in your clothing!! UOOOOOUU!! It's pissing me off---!!" {You bastard---!!} "How come you're less injured than me------!!!?" She advances with kicks and punches, all of which are blocked by Ryuji without the use of his left arm.
Ryuji: "What!!?" {Why do you get angry all of the sudden!!?}
Tsukasa: "Shut up!! You--!! You're making fun of me 'cause I'm a girl right------!!!" {Damn you---!}
Ryuji: "What!!? What are you talking about?"
Both their speech bubbles are accentuated with popped veins.
Voice: "---...I see...... ...So,"
Ryuji: "!?"
Tsukasa: "!?"
Shiki: "!!"
Two figures step into the room. It's Sakaki and Misumi.
Sakaki: "You are a girl........." He's carrying a sheathed sword.
Asago and Munakata: "!!" [Assuming that Munakata was actually listening, he now knows that Tsukasa is a girl...]
Sakaki sneers. "...I get it... Your resemblance to Wakasa explains Shiva's interest and obsession in you."
Asago: "!!"
Tsukasa: "...!"
Asago: "........." {---...Baka-zuki......? ---...Resembles---... He said... 'Wakasa'...? ---To her (the kage no seisai)------...? No way------!! That guy's connecting that baka to the woman I admire!! I'll kill him!!}
Sakaki: "...Gaki, so you're really Wakasa's......" Earring dude suddenly jerks his head to the left as he notices Tsukasa's blade coming straight for his face. Misumi looks on without expression as the blade impales the wall to his right.
Sakaki: "......"
Tsukasa, looking fierce: "...Say any more of that... ... and I'll beat the crap out of you......!!" She moves into fighting stance and the end of her chain can be seen hanging off her belt.
Asago's in shock. {...W...What...? What's this...!? What's this atmosphere...!!?}
Sakaki: "...I don't like this...... The look of those eyes and your hotheadedness... [is there such word?] No~w I know why you were so obsessed with wanting that gaki...... In the world there are 3 people that look exactly like any one person you said? Do you remember what I asked you the first time I saw that gaki? Shiva...!!?" He takes Tsukasa's knife out of the wall and points it at Misumi's throat.
Misumi: "---..."
Sakaki, glaring at Misumi: "... 'Doesn't that gaki resemble someone'...!!? Why didn't you say anything then!!?"
Misumi, coolly: "...Because...... ...there was no reason to say so."
Shiki is in the background again, slowly trying to sneak away. "......"
Misumi: "So what if she was a boy or a girl. So what if she was someone's child. As long as we get the 'kagi' it doesn't matter."
Sakaki: "That's a lie. You knew that if I found out about the gaki's identity that if you didn't kill her, I would."
Misumi: "..."
Sakaki: "... ...How many lies has it been now---...? ...When I just called you out, that answer to my question must have been a lie too........."
Moments earlier.
Sakaki, Misumi and bindi guy were in a discussion.
Sakaki: "Why? Trading off the drugged people like that!! Why are you so interested in that gaki!!?" {Why that gaki at a time like this!?} "Why do we have to take that gaki with us!!?"
Misumi, coolly: "...That will become our last trump. If we use that as a shield then Kuryugumi won't be able to move." [In Japanese, the word are can mean that/he/she/it... but Misumi is most likely meaning "her" as in Tsukasa.]
Sakaki: "---..."
Bindi man: "..."
Sakaki: "That was a plausible excuse, but we saw clearly that the drugged civilians had a great enough impact on Kuryugumi. To me, it just sounded like you were doing that to justify your actions."
Tsukasa: "..." {...What's this...? ...Seems... that things are getting a bit tense here... between those 2...}
Sakaki: "The thought entertained me for awhile now, that would betray me someday because of your obsession with Wakasa !!"
Munakata and Asago notice as Shiki moves behind Misumi and Sakaki. Tsukasa notices as well. Misumi is standing there calmly, with no expression.
Sakaki, who's still holding the knife to Misumi's throat: "...If you put 'Wakasa's daughter' and us (Garyukai) on a balance, you'd ditch us (Garyukai) just like that. You're that type of guy. Our (Garyukai's) plan to have the world at our fingertips. ...Before that happens, we'll (Garyukai) dispose of you. From now on,"
Tsukasa: "A...!"
Sakaki: "I'm ruling Garyukai---!!" Sakaki pulls his arm back, then thrusts the knife towards Misumi.
Four razor sharp claws embed themselves into Sakaki's forearm.
The man looks up in surprise.
Shiki: "...Where are you trying to point that thing...? Aa...? ...And in front of me too..." Shiki's clawed weapon had stopped the blade from striking Misumi.
Sakaki: "!!" Blood drips from his arm.
Shiki: "...Don't get so hyped up mister Sakaki..."
Sakaki, smiling slyly: "...... Who's the one that's so hyped up...?"
Shiki suddenly has a gun pointed to his face as bindi man steps in. "!!!"
Sakaki frees his arm from Shiki's claws.
Shiki: "...Ouguro!! Even you too...!!" [Yeah!! Bindi man has a name now. BTW, Ouguro is a last name as far as I know.]
Tsukasa: "!! ...Th... They're turning on each other!"
Ryuji, calmly: "...There's always one of them... One person who will betray the family name..." {That's why the top can't live being unaware of what's happening around them without using their instincts .}
Munakata: "...It doesn't look like it's the right time to be analyzing such things." He pulls Asago back towards himself. [How cute!]
Asago: "!?"
Tsukasa: "Gege!!?"
Suddenly, several armed men storm into the room, their guns drawn.
Ryuji whips out his gun, while Tsukasa does the same with her chain.
Ryuji: "You hid them in the elevator!"
Tsukasa: "More of them!!?" [Not a direct translation but I can't think of a good phrase that fits here...]
Ouguro: "......Of course."
In another part of the airport terminal.
Akira raises his head at a faint sound. {...Gun shots---...?}
Cop 1: "Kise?"
Cop 2: "A~aa. Tying up so many like this."
Cop 3: "The only one who would do such a thing is Munakata-san."
The cops are dealing with a large number of tied up druggies. A huge cage on wheels is seen in the background, full of more of them. A number of them are tied up and are being dragged off. They look semi-conscious, and seem unable to move.
Ouguro and Sakaki stop at the top of the stairs.
Ouguro: "!!"
Sakaki: "A......"
Akira and another cop were halfway up the stairs. "......?"
Sakaki: "Dammit! This way!" Looks like he dropped his sword and Tsukasa's knife somewhere.
Ouguro follows as Sakaki takes off.
Akira: "A!!?" {They're escaping!!? How suspicious!!} "Wait there you two------!!"
Again, back in the ultra VIP room.
Man: "AAAAAAA-------!!" He pulls out an automatic rifle and starts firing away.
Tsukasa avoids all bullets though, and manages to come face to face with the man.
Man: "!!" {U!}
Tsukasa, whispering: "...You suck." She jumps up gracefully, whipping her chain around.
Man: "...O!"
The chain catches the guy around the neck, and she yanks hard while delivering a kick to the back of his head. Unravelling the guy from her chain, she races away. "Ryuji------!! Ryuji...! !!"
Ryuji: "...Oo..." He's panting hard but more or less intact. Looks like he lost his jacket completely.
Tsukasa is suddenly on her hands and knees, crying and pounding the floor. "...! ...!"
Ryuji: "..."
Munakata and Asago both have their guns at their sides.
Munakata: {Hey...} "...She seems very overwhelmed with grief." {What's wrong?} [Note, I said "she" here, but I don't know if Munakata actually said that or not. (Pronouns aren't necessary in a number of sentences in Japanese). But I'll assume that he actually knows that Tsukasa is a girl now.]
Asago: "I'm sure she's just envious that Ryuji downed more of them than she did.
Text pointing to 2 men on the floor: These two.
Text pointing to a single man on the floor with a chain still around his neck: Tsukasa's single prey.
Ryuji is seen with several popped veins on the back of his head. He accuses Tsukasa angrily. "You~~~ Didn't you come flying here 'cause you were worried about me~~~?"
Tsukasa, with huge tear filled eyes: "I did! That is until I saw that you were all right!! Getting 2 of them by yourself when you're injured like that, that's not fair!!" {How come that wasn't a tougher fight!?}
Ryuji: "Why would it be a tough one when you can fight back with guns---!!" [i.e. distance fighting (Ryuji's style if he has a gun) versus Tsukasa who can only do close up fights (hand to hand combat is it called?)]
Asago: {...She's crying and questioning Ryuji's well being...... ...What kind of bodyguard is that...? What's she thinking...?}
Thoughts start going through Asago's mind.
"---...Your resemblance to Wakasa......"
Asago: {Humph! You've got to be kidding!! What part of them is similar!!? They're totally different! Baka-zuki's only good point is her almost un-human agility and reflexes...} She stops.
Asago, some time earlier: "---Her daughter would probably resemble her mother and have amazing fighting skills."
To that, Ryuji had replied: "Asago. ...You shouldn't spin such images in your head......" {Not to be mean or anything......}
Asago with round eyes: "Oh... Why?"
Ryuji: "Because you may want to take all that you've just said back..." {Knowing you...}
Asago: "?" There were question marks popping around her head. [This excerpt was from ep. 74.]
Asago starts and watches Ryuji play fighting with Tsukasa.
Tsukasa, pointing vaguely in the direction of the door: "You bastard---!! Look! We're trapped in here again--! This door only opens from the outside---!"
Text pointing to the wall: The door's around here somewhere.
Ryuji: "That's not my fault---!"
Tsukasa: "Yes it is! Your fault! Your fault!" She starts pulling on his cheek.
Ryuji: "Okay, okyay. I'll kyontah Kamohima!" [When translated it becomes "okay, okay, I'll contact Kamojima"] He starts pulling on Tsukasa's cheek too.
Asago stares in surprise.
Sakaki, earlier: "...---Gaki, you're really Wakasa's---..."
The truth hits her suddenly.
Shiki: "---Hey... Are you all right...? You're not hit by any bullets right?"
Misumi: "...Aa. ......I'm not---..."
Misumi's covered in blood, slouched up against the wall. But the blood doesn't seem to be his. Shiki, who's standing protectively over him is covered in blood and panting heavily.
Tsukasa and Ryuji stare in shock: "... ..."
Tsukasa: {...S... Scorpion...!? ...He...... he protected Gonzaemon and let himself be the target......? ...Why...!? WHY...!? Why is Scorpion obligated to go that far for Gonzaemon...!? Wasn't it for Scorpion, Gonzaemon was the cruel master who used him...?}
Ryuji: "---...What's with those 2...? ...Are they HOMO...?"
Tsukasa puts her fist to her palm. She starts whispering loudly. "That's right, I almost forgot. It seems that Gonzaemon is pregnant, since it seems like it's not just his body. From my thinking, the father is Scorpion and those two are husband and wife."
Ryuji: "......!"
Shiki, pointing angrily: "Don't be whispering strange stories like that------!!" {I can hear you there uh------!?}
Tsukasa looks up in surprise: "...!!" {...Scorpion looks pretty lively, though he's lost enough blood to be half dead.}
Shiki is panting heavily. "..."
Misumi is sitting with his arms crossed. "......"
Shiki: "...I ...... ...I don't care if that guy dies or not... But ...the... only thing I want to protect is his body..."
Misumi: "---..."
Shiki: "Souryou Misumi...!!"
Tsukasa: "......" Question marks float above her head. "...What's he saying.......?" {I don't get it.}
Ryuji: "......." {...I don't understand it well either but. ...But...} "...... ...It sounds like he's saying that that guy and 'Souryou Misumi' are different people."
Tsukasa: "...Ha!?" {But he's Souryou Misumi. He even said so himself.} She recalls the incident at Niko-Niko Tower. {Who else could he---}
Suddenly the thought strikes her.
Sakaki, earlier: "------...SHIVA...!!"
Tsukasa stares at the long haired guy sitting on the floor. {---...'Shiva'---...? ---...Different people...?} "........." {---...No way---... ---but... is that sort of thing... possible---...? That in the person 'Souryou Misumi', there's a different person called 'Shiva'------...!?"
Flowers in the background all of the sudden. Kamo-san appears, with a goofy looking smile.
Tsukasa almost trips.
Behind Kamo-san in the cramped elevator is a number of people, including Ryuji's bodyguards, Tsubaki, Azuma, the Kozuki brothers, clan heads and some kumiin in camouflage wear.
Kamo-san, apologetically: "...Um... We took some time trying to find the room...... ...We came in a hurry but, are we interrupting/bothering something---...?"
Azuma is seen leaning on Tsubaki.
Tsubaki: "Azuma~ You're heavy~"
Azuma: "I'm sorry.
Bun-san has nothing to say. In front of him are the Kozuki brothers.
Sho: "Uha---! Taku-nii! You're heavy-- I can't breathe--!"
Taku: "We're here already."
Toshi: "A!"
Tsukasa: "...Wh...!?" Even Ryuji looks surprised.
The people start pouring out of the elevator.
Clan head: "Sandaime! Thank goodness you're all right...!"
Kamo-san: "...This tense atmosphere..."
Kyuragi: "A...! Sandaime!"
Toshi and Sho: "A! Tsukasa---!"
Tsukasa, showing fangs: "Eei!! What's this traffic jam---!!"
Shiki turns in surprise to see the horde of people pouring out.
