Pre-Scene Dialogue[]
(UNSF Facility)
Ares Enduwa: ...OK, the coast is clear. This way, Cage.
Cage Midwell: This is the inside of the facility? There really isn't anyone here.
Ares: It's proof that Deckson is doing his part within the plan.
Myona Alderan: Who knew that there were all these underground passageways...
Ares: It's the legacy of the colonists. The earlier immigrants were all specialists of their respective fields. Even these so-called temporary routes can still be used today. It's rather amazing, actually.
Myona: How did you know about it? It's not even on maps anymore, is it?
Ares: Past experience. Shall we?
Myona: (...What is it? ...I feel like I've met him before...)
Ares: Hm? What happened?
Myona: Um, nothing. Let's go.
(Facility)
Cage: ...Hey, is there any other way in besides the vents?
Ares: Would you prefer to knock on the front door and be let in?
Cage: But with the size of these things, neither you nor I will be able to get through.
Myona: Don't worry. I'll go.
Cage: Myona... Are you going to be all right?
Myona: I wouldn't run from danger when I was the one who said I wanted to come with you to begin with. Besides, I want to help out, too. I'll be fine. I won't do anything stupid.
Ares: ...Let's leave this to her. It's not too bad to wait sometimes and hope for the best.
Cage: Um. OK.
Myona: Thank you. Uh, Cage. Um...your button... Can I borrow it?
Cage: Wha?
Myona: Oh, er, if you don't want to lend it to me, it's fine! It's just... I just wanted a lucky charm. It's a pretty song, too.
Ares: ...You still have that thing?
Cage: Well, it commemorates our friendship.... It's my prize possession. But if this is going to help you, Myona, by all means, please take it! Here!
Myona: Thanks. I'll be very careful with it. And Ares... This song... what is it called? I know I've heard it before, and I've been meaning to ask you.
Ares: ...It doesn't have a title, and the composer was an old friend of mine. I'm sure you haven't really heard it before...
Myona: Oh... I see... I thought that maybe it had something to do with my past....
Ares: (...if you can't remember, it's probably best to keep it that way...)
Myona: Well, here I go.
Ares: ...Myona?
Myona: Yes?
Ares: Be careful.
Myona: I will!
Cage: Good luck, Myona.
Myona: Thank you!
Cage: (Myona... Are you going to be okay? ...I'm so worried about you...)
Ares: Cage, are you worried about her?
Cage: Huh? How... how did you know?
Ares: Heh heh... you are so simple! You can read your face like a book...
(An alarm sounds.)
Cage: Did Myona get caught? Oh no! We have to go and help her...
Ares: Wait, I don't think that's it. It doesn't seem like the alarm is going off because they found her...
Cage: Ares! There's something going on outside! I'm going to go and check it out!
Ares: Wait, Cage! Come back!! (Tsk... Why doesn't anything ever go as planned...)
Scene Dialogue[]
Before Battle[]
Cubick: ...As our information suggested, security was light and it was easy to get our prize this time, wasn't it?
Digit: This kind of thing is so easy for us Mars Angels.
Cubick: Shall we, ladies?
Palme: ...Well, I think I will excuse myself now...
Cubick: Oh? And where to? We have plans to celebrate at Madame Monica's.
Palme: Well....
Digit: Ohhh, I know. That older man with the moustache??
Cubick: The gentleman we happened across last night at the bar? Miss Palme? Would you like to explain what is going on?
Palme: ....
Digit: Did you forget our vow? Our triple wedding? How could you push Cubie to the limits like that and get yourself a boyfriend?
Cubick: A, anyway!! If that is what you are going to do, we cannot allow you to act individually.
Palme: ...We are doing nothing but experiencing what has already been decided previously. He and I were destined to meet each other on the "Crimson Sphere". You did things to ignore the great prophecies, which is why you have still not...
Cubick: I believe you said the same thing before? Your fate lacks credibility.
(Cubick appears.)
Palme: Ah, a poor lamb who is afraid even to enjoy the provisions of life... Meandering; lost for all eternity... aging all the while... <<snicker>>.
(Palme appears.)
Cubick: Oh! Ha, ha, ha, ha...
Digit: (Oh no... Not again....)
Cubick: You seem to think that if he knew that head of yours emits nothing but spaced-out ideas, the relationship could continue - and THAT is simply thoughtLESS.
(Palme dodges an attack from Cubit.)
Palme: That is not a good strategy. If you're jealous, you should just admit it!
(Cubit dodges an attack from Palme.)
Cubick: And what might you be doing?
Palme: ...You started it.
(Digit appears.)
Digit: ...Okay you two, now is not the time to be bickering...
UNSF Soldier A: You three pilots of the unregistered LEVs there! We know that you unlawfully entered the facility! Stop where you are, and disembark immediately! Otherwise...
Cubick: Well, then I would like to say that I know you drank my tea. Did you really think that I wouldn't find out?
Palme: ...Nature's gifts are for all to share. Gluttony is a sin!
Cubick: Then I have the right to go along with you too.
Palme: Now that is a different matter altogether.
UNSF Soldier B: Hey! Are you listening?! Get out now, or we'll....
Palme: ...Ok, you're really starting to bug me...
(Palme attacks UNSF Soldier C.)
UNSF Soldier A: Aaaaaaaaarrrrghhhhhhhhh!
UNSF Soldier B: You're going to... rebel?!
Cubick: Really, please stop fussing!
(Cubick attacks UNSF Soldier B.)
UNSF Soldier B: Uggghghggh...!
Digit: Cubie, Palme, you are so cool!
UNSF Soldier C: You... You've displayed disrespectful behavior within the UNSF compound! You... you hear me?! Get them out of there!
(Several Unmanned units appear.)
Digit: ♪Oh yay! There's so many of them!♪
Cubick: Miss Palme, would you look at this? I suggest we continue this later.
Palme: ...Gladly...
UNSF Soldier C: Heh heh heh.... It's the newest unmanned anti-terrorist machine, fresh from the factory! (There's enough of 'em; they'll take care of it from here... I'm leaving) Go!!
(The UNSF Soldier leaves, and Cage enters.)
Cage: Pharsti, you've been waiting for me?
Pharsti: Yes... Cage? You are very early... Are you already going to escape?
Cage: No. Things feel weird, so I just came back alone... Hey, what is going on?
Pharsti: I do not know. The LEV with the pink line arrived suddenly... It does not seem to belong to the UNSF.
Palme: I don't feel animosity from that frame, so I don't think it's with the UNSF.
Digit: If they're in the facility, and they're not UNSF, they must be... in our industry???
Cubick: My, what lovely form!
Cage: Oh, er, thank you. Who are you?
Cubick: If you are going to ask somebody's name, you really should state yours first.
Cage: Huh? Oh! Excuse me! My name is Cage... Cage Midwell!!
Cubick: (...Not bad... a few more years and...)
Palme: ...This is not the kind of situation where we can afford leisurely chatter. Hurry, let's take care of business.
Digit: OK. That's right - you don't want to be late for your date.
Cubick: That's true... To begin with, we shall destroy them... then we'll think about what to do next! Cage, is that all right with you?
Cage: Wha? Oh, yes.
Pharsti: Cage... Are you sure?
Cage: I... I don't really know what's happening, but they seem like they need help... and if we make a racket outside, it might make it easier for Ares and Myona to get in!
Pharsti: ...Roger. In this situation, we do not have much choice... Let us proceed!
Cage: Got it!
Ares: ...An LEV with a pink line. So those are the 'Mars Angels'... What are a bunch of nouveau-riche thrillseekers doing here?
??????: How am I supposed to know? We can just get rid of their sponsor and get rid of them.
Ares: Don't bother with the little people. More importantly, you got rid of all those people for me. I'll go ahead and finish my business.
??????: The old man's here, though.
Ares: ...It's not a problem. Actually, it's exactly what I wanted.
??????: Hmm. OK. Well, you go ahead and do your thing. Ending communication...
Ares: .....
Turn 1 Enemy Phase[]
UNSF General: Hey! What are you doing? Are you in contact with the team that went after the terrorists?
UNSF Soldier: Uh, Sir, there seems to be some jamming surrounding the compound, and I cannot establish contact!
UNSF General: What?!? Find out what happened!! Prepare the attack system!! Don't forget that Mr. Zephyrs is here! You mess up and it's not only your job that's on the line!
Soldier: Y-yes sir!
UNSF General: That female... took that LEV...
Turn 2 Start[]
Myona: ...There. This must be the spot....
(If the enemy was obliterated in the previous scene:)
(Mebius appears.)
Mebius K. Lylekraft Hmm, Cage? What are you doing? That's pretty bold of you.
Cage: Ms. Mebius!
(Warren appears.)
Warren Lumenlux: We finished our part early, so we rushed over here to help out... Aren't you supposed to be invading with the others?
Cage: Mr. Warren! Um, well, it's a long story...
Warren: It doesn't matter... Are the two inside? Let's provide a distraction outside... But make sure to get out before the support team arrives!
Cage: Yes sir! Oh, the LEVs with the pink line aren't enemies! Please be careful!
Mebius: I don't really understand, but OK!
Cubick: (I had suspected, but... that IS an Orbital Frame. Which means... they're BIS??)
Digit: They're your friends? We'll never lose!!
Palme: Oh!! (<<gasp>> ...That gentleman with the black glasses... how wonderful he is...)
Turn 3 Start[]
Myona: .... Now for the data log.....
??????? (Dezeele Zephyrs): Who's there? What are you doing in here?
Myona: What?!
Turn 4 Start[]
Pharsti: Cage, may I ask a question?
Cage: A question?
(1)Yeah sure.
(2)Right now... Can this wait?
(If option 2 is selected:)
Cage: Right now....? Let's do it later, I'm worried about the two of them inside.
Pharsti: That is true. Please forget I asked.
(If option 1 is selected:)
Cage: Sure, what's the question?
Pharsti: Did Ares play the song recorded on the wearable player?
Cage: Wearable...? Oh, my button? Yes, he did.
Pharsti: If it would be okay with you, I would like to hear it.
Cage: (1) Of course I don't mind...
(2) Can we do this later?
(If option 2 is selected:)
Cage: Right now....? Let's do it later, I'm worried about the two of them inside.
Pharsti: That is true. Please forget I asked.
(If option 1 is selected:)
Cage: What? I don't mind, but... why??
Pharsti: I don't know, but that music has some effect on me that I cannot quite discern. Perhaps it is being played in a special way??
Cage: ...I was... born on an emigration spacecraft, and spent my entire life on board.
Pharsti: What?
Cage: The captain raised me, and passed away when I was 13. After that, I went from ship to ship... Then last year, I boarded the Bonaparte III. By then I had become really quiet, and all I did was work and sleep. But one night, I heard that song from the lobby... I've had it every since.
Pharsti: Ares... was playing?
Cage: It's a very pretty song. It feels familiar, even when you hear it for the first time... It would make me feel happy. I couldn't control myself, and I started talking to Ares. He taught me how to play... although I never got to be as good as him. (He also showed me that a person of the same age is capable of being so much more...)
Pharsti: ...And that is how you met? I understand... So the song is very memorable for the both of you?
Cage: Yeah.... His emotions are expressed in his playing. That must be why you feel something when you hear it also.
Pharsti: Is... that why?
Cage: Yeah, I think so.
Pharsti: I see....
Palme Defeated[]
Palme: ...It's useless. Whatever calamity strikes, it cannot reach me. My expression of RAPTURE... Heh, heh.
Cage: Um, are you feeling okay?
Palme: Believe... There is supreme bliss which can be begotten through fundamentalist pride...
Cage: Uh... huh. All right, I understand that you're safe, so I'll go now and take care of some other stuff.
Palme: Oh. Humans are no more than specks of dust in the master plan... Fine. There is still time until doomsday....
(Palme leaves.)
Digit Defeated[]
Digit: Cubie, I can't hold it in anymorrre.
Cubick: It can't be helped. Do not stray too far, now.
Digit: Okay.
(If Cubick was defeated:)
Digit: Gotta go, gotta go...
(Digit leaves.)
Cubick Defeated[]
Cubick: Just as I had expected, I'm not meant for these violent, uncultured things...
Cage: Leave the rest to us, and please seek safety somewhere!
Cubick: So we can count on you?
Cage: Yes.
Cubick: We are indebted. Shall we....
(Cubick leaves.)
Unmanned Units Defeated[]
UNSF General: All gone...?! Those monsters?!
(If the Mars Angels defeat more enemies:)
Digit: Hee, hee, we win!!
Pharsti: Win...?
Cubick: Digi, when were we competing?
Digit: Hm? What do you mean? I guess I got carried away as usual…
Palme: ...My channeling abilities are telling us that we have overstayed our visit.
Cubick: I guess we best get going. Digi, would that be all right with you?
Digit: Mmm-hmm.
Palme: It’s unfortunate... You were so close to attracting good luck…
Cage: Huh? What does that mean?
Palme: Heh heh…you’ll see soon enough…
Cage: Who... are you?!?
Cubick: We are the ‘Mars Angels,’ from the Red Earth… We look forward to seeing you again somewhere. Until then…ta-ta!
(The Mars Angels leave.)
Cage: ...And off they go... (the 'Mars Angels'... Hmm....)
Pharsti: Cage, should we not help the two inside to evacuate?
Cage: Oh, you're right. Can you locate them?
Pharsti: Just a moment... Scan complete. 4 responses registered.
Cage: 4? Myona, Ares, ...and who else??
Pharsti: One of whom is apparently battling with someone. Site located. This is the room that we will be entering.
Cage: What?!? So, Myona...?
(BIS leaves.)
Post-Scene Dialogue[]
(Evidence Safe)
Zephyrs: Ah...
Myona: Stop it! Let go of me!!
Zephyrs: To think that we would meet again...!
Myona: You're over!
Zephyrs: Heh heh heh... And why did you come in here? Is this what you were looking for?
Myona: What?
Zephyrs: The data log from the Bonaparte. I should have gotten rid of it along with all the survivors, but the motherland wanted a report. A formality.
Myona: The survivors...? You didn't....
Zephyrs: It took me until now to realize, but I know that you are one of them.
Myona: Answer my question!
Zephyrs: Yes. All those aboard the Bonaparte were cleaned up. Ned Noachim enjoyed that immensely.
Myona: ...You... Monster....
Zephyrs: Hah.... Little girl like you shouldn't be waling around with a gun. It doesn't become you...
Myona: ...Don't move! Hand that over!
Zephyrs: And if I don't... will you shoot me? I don't mind. But you won't be able to pull the trigger.
Myona: ...This is not an idle threat!
Zephyrs: Then shoot me. Can a child really shoot its parent? ...Fa... or I guess I should call you Subject #479...?
Myona: What are you talking about? Stop!! Don't come any closer!!
Zephyrs: ...Put that down.
Myona: (I can't... disobey him!!? Why?!?)
Zephyrs: Strange goings-on around here... First the Iblis, then you. I never expected that you and your brother would take the Animus...
Myona: My... brother...? What?
Zephyrs: Ah well. What's the hurry? I'll take my time with you. Come along.... There's too much going on right here to have a conversation... Heh heh...
Myona: (...I... can't do anything.... I'm an extra load that everyone has to carry... Cage....)
(A song is heard.)
Zephyrs: What's the matter?
Myona: (Cage's button.... It... It's moving! My body is moving!)
Zephyrs: Hm? That song... That button....
(A gunshot is heard.)
Zephyrs: What!?
Myona: Don't move! This time I will shoot you... The disk is mine!
Zephyrs: ...Don't do it. Come back. This is your home...
Myona: Sorry to break it to you, but I'm Myona. Nobody else!!
(A door is heard opening.)
UNSF Soldier: That's enough, you little brat! Come here!
UNSF Soldier: It makes no sense to disobey!
UNSF Soldier: Hurry along now!
Myona: <<gasp>> What are you doing?!?
UNSF Soldier: Heh heh heh... We have to make sure you're not carrying any weapons...
(A sound is heard.)
UNSF Soldier: Yikes!
UNSF Soldier: Whatcha doin'?! We gotta get outta here quick! You okay? you gonna make it?
UNSF Soldier: Stupidhead! I was just trying to make things realistic...
Myona: Semmy! Is that you? And... Razma?!?
Zephyrs: You... terrorists?!?
Semyl Shambrow: Sure took you long enough. Oh, don't do THAT.
Razma Cascade Jr.: Here's a little token of our appreciation... Sleeping gas. Night-night.
(Sleeping gas fills the room.)
Zephyrs: <<cough>> <<hack>> I won't... Eggghegehe... You....
(Zephyrs falls.)
(UNSF Facility)
Deckson: It worked! ...Now, hurry! Get on.
Cage: Myona! Are you okay?!
Myona: Cage!
Cage: Hey! Myona?
Myona: Cage... I'm... Myona... right? That's who I am, right?
Cage: I, I don't really know.... But you're you. You're not anyone else.
Myona: ...You're right.... Thank you.
Semyl: (WHOA!)
Phil: (.......)
Razma: Instead of PDA, could you hurry things up? There are people back here waiting to get in.
Myona: Oh, I'm sorry!
Ares: And how did it all go?
Myona: Y-yes... Here... It's the data log for the Bonaparte.
Warren: Somehow the plan worked, then?
Mebius: That's great!
(If the Mars Angels defeated more enemies:)
Razma: Come to think of it, what's the story with the flashy LEVs that were making a scene outside? They were in before Cage and everyone.
(If BIS defeated more enemies:)
Cage: That data has been saved on Testament's memory. One of the ladies who we fought with gave it to me...
(Both dialogue versions end here.)
Pharsti: She said she was a 'Mars Angel'.
Tadamichi E. Yukito: You met the 'Mars Angels'?!
Cage: Um, yes.
Yukito: Dang! You are so lucky!! They're so hot!!! And they're really popular these days.
Deckson: We'll talk about this later. We've gotten what we went in for. Now let's get out of here!
Phil: We're heading home!
