I'm going to kill your boyfriend!
Because I want to see you cry!
Su-Sumire...
Run away!
Sumire!
Sumire! Sumire!
Mika?
You're kind of spaced out.
Huh?
Oh, I'm okay! I'm perfectly fine!
Really? Ah! Oh yeah!
I went to the cake store in front of the station that we were talking about before, but...
Really? And how was it?
Well, about that... Listen to this!
Huh? What? What?
It was so delicious, I ended up eating two!
That totally ruined my diet!
Thank goodness. Nothing's wrong with Kyoko.
But...

What's wrong? Are you tired?
What do you expect?
Lucia!
More bullets! More bullets!
Here!
There sure are a lot lately, aren't there?
They may be low-class, but with this many...
we should have brought Sumire along after all.
Enough chit-chat.
Whoa, there's so many!
They're coming.
Bitter Damage
Good work.
Hmph. It was nothing.
After all, I have to pick up the slack after a certain SOMEONE goofs up.
What did you just say?
Lyla, that's bad manners.
It wasn't a dream.
I'm sorry. Sumire
Incoming Call Kusanagi, Yoshiki
I'm sorry.
An enemy the vaccine doesn't work on, huh? This is going to be trouble.
Do you want to try increasing the dose?
The strength of the bullets will decrease, but...
Now we have to worry about the distribution. Would you show me?
Yeah!
The number of Virus appearances has increased, too.
We have to do something.
Just the requests we get are too much to keep up with.
But we have to make our moves, too.
Improve the vaccine, investigate the reason behind the sudden increase in Viruses, and...
figure out who that Luca woman is, and what she's after.
We've got a lot of problems to tackle.
Thank you, Sumire.
Are you still taking time off, Sumire?
Sorry.
You're still worrying about that young man, aren't you?
Don't worry, don't worry!
That Yoshiki person wasn't hurt much.
He made it through safely. Let's just leave it at that.
It was my fault!
If I had just been able to protect Yoshiki when that happened...
You're right.
If you had been able to fight properly, that man Yoshiki might not have been hurt.
Lucia!
You have a weapon to fight with, don't you?
Use it properly.
I... I'm not like you, Lucia!
Right.
We'd better get going.
Lucia?
It's time for work.
Lucia! What are you doing?
They were wilted.
Honestly.
Sorry, but please watch the store, Sumire.
Don't worry, I'll give her a stern talking later!
Lucia, weren't you a little hard on her?
Yeah!
She's the kind of girl who suffers more
when other people get hurt than when she gets hurt herself. So...
That's exactly why she has to fight.
If she doesn't, then even more people will get hurt unnecessarily.
You have a point, but still...
Right now, focus on the Viruses.
I understand.
Yo.
What's your problem? You take one look at a guy's face and scream?
How rude.
Shut up, will ya? I've had enough from you.
That was close!
Who's there?
Oh, it's you guys, huh?
Wait just a minute, will ya? I'll be done here soon.
Stop messing around!
Be careful! This guy's the same as that Luca girl!
This fragment is all mine!
Fragment?
Mr. Nahashi.
Yeah.
Now then, for you guys.
Hands off, alright? Or I'll get yelled at, you know?
A Virus... What?
Well, there you go.
If you don't want to get hurt, then scram.
I'll let you slide.
Don't mess with me!
What a pain in the ass.
Oh well, I guess I'll have to rough you up just a little bit.
Here we go!
Sumire, out of the way, out of the way!
Lucia...
I'm fine.
Okay, Lucia...
Yeah.
Medicine, medicine!
You'll be fine now.
Thank goodness!
Stay in bed.
You're making too much of this!
These wounds aren't that bad.
Laura, take care of Lucia.
Sure, sure!
Mr. Nahashi.
Sumire, I'd like to take a little bit of your time. Do you mind?
Sorry about this. We were starting to run out.
Oh, not at all. But...
This sure is a lot.
Lucia hates hospitals.
I always do this for the kinds of wounds she usually gets.
But, if she gets seriously hurt or something...
I'll find a way to bring her to the hospital somehow.
We aren't related by blood, but I still consider myself Lucia's father.
But the best thing would be for her not to get hurt at all.
I have to do everything I can to keep that from happening.
Mr. Nahashi...
What's the big idea, doing something like that?
They're the ones who started it. It was self-defense.
Well, it was no big deal anyway.
Lady Sonoka, you seriously think it's her?
Perhaps I miscalculated?
Oh, hey, if you did, can l take their fragments?
Hey! Guy!
I AM interested in seeing what kind of glimmer they have.
Lady Sonoka?!
Awright! Then see ya later!
Lady Sonoka, are you sure about this?
Yes. I'll let him give it his best shot, if you know what I mean.
Su-mi-re!
Let's walk home together! Well, at least part of the way!
Uuuhh... Excuse me!
W-W-W-W-Would you like t-t-to see a movie with me?
Nene, and Riku too...
So, who was the one who teased you?
Huh? I-I wasn't really...
Don't lie!
It's me, Nene! I've always protected you, because you're such a crybaby.
Now tell me! I'll get even with her!
Thank you, Nene.
But I'm okay, really!
All right.
But, but, you'd better tell me if things start getting out of control, you hear?
Because you have me, Nene, on your side!
M-M-M-Me, too!
Thanks.
It's still too soon, Lucia.
You have to rest a little more, you have to!
Lucia, that outfit...
Stop her, Sumire!
Lucia said she's going to go after Viruses again today!
What? But what about your wounds?
They've healed.
But...
If we don't go out there and kill the Viruses, there will be even more damage.
Nahashi, let's go.
Understood.
Mr. Nahashi!
Watch the shop, Sumire.
Laura, continue developing the vaccine.
Okay.
What's her problem?! Honestly!
Lucia's so pig-headed!
Lucia, if I think you're pushing yourself too much, I'm going to stop you.
Yeah.
No!
Sumire!
Oh, what?
Chocolate! Have some chocolate!
Oh, thanks.
So good!
What's wrong?
Look.
Huh?
How lousy-lousy!
Those are...
You didn't notice? Lucia did it.
I think this is the first time Lucia's arranged flowers.
But, why?
You always arrange flowers, so she probably did this in return, you know?
Lucia did this, for me?
But she's really lousy at arranging flowers, isn't she?
Lucia did this...
for me?
I have to apologize to her when she gets back!
But they sure are taking forever to get back, aren't they?
Huh? Yeah, you're right.
Crap!
You bastards!
Lucia... are you all right?
Yeah.
Found ya!
Now then, I'll be taking your fragment today.
Who's there?!
Sumire?
I'm sorry, Lucia.
Nahashi and Laura, too. I've caused trouble for all of you.
Sumire...
I will fight, too!
That ain't gonna work, missy.
I've decided.
If you had been able to fight properly, that man Yoshiki might not have been hurt.
If we don't go out there and kill the Viruses, there will be even more damage.
I've decided to protect!
Protect the people important to me!
What the...
You bitch!
Sumire... Don't tell me she's...
Controlling her berserk form?
Sumire...
You're interesting...
Real interesting...
Take that!
That!
And that!
Hmph. Go!
Sumire!
I can still fight...
I'm not finished...
Oh shut up.
Give it up already.
See ya.
No...
NO!
Lucia!
She's using her left eye...
You again? You never learn, do ya?
Let Sumire go.
Let Sumire go!
What?
No!
Lucia...
How...
How beautiful...
Lucia!
That light...
It is them after all...
It looks that way.
What the hell was that?
I'm gonna hold this against you, Lady Sonoka!
Sumire!
Sumire! Thank goodness!
I...
Lucia!
She'll be all right. She just used too much of her power.
But!
Mr. Nahashi...
I guess it's almost time...
I was finally able to fight.
But I was still too weak.

Hi! I'm Laura.
Now I'm not supposed to tell you this,
Mr. Nahashi has been a studious man ever since he was young,
and he reads lots of hard books on stuff like magic and alchemy!
I wonder if that's why he's always like, "Hrrrmm..." and has a stern look on his face?
But when he was younger, Mr. Nahashi was cool and SO good-looking!
