**[00:26] ---**
Chronos is here!
**[00:27] ---**
Shoot! Shoot them down!
**[00:35] ---**
You've allowed the enemy to invade?!
**[00:37] ---**
Hurry up and surround them!
**[00:40] ---**
Aghh! Chrono Numbers!
**[00:44] ---**
So you know about us...
**[00:46] ---**
Arghh! Shoot! Shoot!
**[00:48] ---**
Out of our way!
**[00:58] ---**
Aghh! Run!!
**[01:00] ---**
You cannot escape my arrows!
**[01:06] ---**
Geez, what a flashy show
you all are putting on!
**[01:10] ---**
Today's cards are sharper than usual.
**[01:27] ---**
Apostles of the Stars...
**[01:29] ---**
The power of Chronos...
**[01:31] ---**
Experience it for yourselves!
**[01:34] ---**
*That's how it always starts...*
**[01:36] ---**
*under the azure sky*
**[01:39] ---**
*After making a vow,*
**[01:43] ---**
*I now set off*
**[01:59] ---**
*Yeah, the desert glitters with a golden hue*
**[02:04] ---**
*(The wind is scorching)*
**[02:05] ---**
*I'm searching for a diamond flower*
**[02:10] ---**
*(I keep on wandering)*
**[02:12] ---**
*Now, for the first time in my life,*
**[02:19] ---**
*I live for someone else*
**[02:25] ---**
*There's something I wanna protect*
**[02:31] ---**
*I'll never, ever lose it again*
**[02:38] ---**
*Resound, my heartbeat!*
**[02:44] ---**
*A heartbeat smaller and fragile,
but tougher than anyone's.*
**[03:04] ---**
"The Sprinting Cat"
**[03:08] ---**
The Numbers have engaged our troops!
**[03:11] ---**
They're headed this way!
**[03:16] ---**
The Numbers are on their way, Creed.
**[03:19] ---**
Creed! The Chrono Numbers are...
**[03:22] ---**
Chrono Numbers?!
**[03:24] ---**
Echidna, you know who I'm waiting for!
**[03:39] ---**
Hey, are you guys all right?
**[03:41] ---**
Where are we?
**[03:44] ---**
Kraken Island.
**[03:45] ---**
Where's everyone else?
**[03:46] ---**
I don't know.
**[03:50] ---**
What's the matter?
**[03:53] ---**
It's nothing.
**[03:54] ---**
It seems it's beyond this.
**[04:07] ---**
Why you...!
**[04:19] ---**
Are you the girl from that time?
**[04:21] ---**
Leon!
**[04:22] ---**
I haven't had much exercise lately.
**[04:25] ---**
I'll take you on.
**[04:32] ---**
Hmm... Looks like I can
have a little fun with you...
**[04:36] ---**
Promise me one thing.
**[04:38] ---**
Huh?
**[04:39] ---**
If I beat you, you'll leave
the Apostles of the Stars.
**[04:43] ---**
Huh? What're you saying?
**[04:46] ---**
Before you say such things,
worry about your own safety!
**[04:51] ---**
No one's around...
**[04:54] ---**
It's like a ghost town.
**[04:56] ---**
As it is... Elly's parents
are probably also...
**[05:02] ---**
The enemy!
**[05:06] ---**
We have a welcoming party, huh?
**[05:10] ---**
Well, let's do it!
**[05:16] ---**
Small fries can stay outta here!
**[05:20] ---**
You're...
**[05:24] ---**
Why don't you play a bit?
**[05:28] ---**
Dammit!
**[05:29] ---**
You small fries are really annoying!
**[05:35] ---**
Silphy!
**[05:52] ---**
What the hell is this?
**[05:54] ---**
Now, it's his turn!
**[06:00] ---**
Another one of those?
**[06:02] ---**
This one's different
from those half-baked samples.
**[06:07] ---**
I wonder if you can handle him.
**[06:09] ---**
What?!
**[06:10] ---**
Have fun!
**[06:13] ---**
Hold it! You won't get away!
**[06:16] ---**
Take that!
**[06:20] ---**
It's faster than the earlier ones!
**[06:22] ---**
Sorry to butt in from the side!
**[06:24] ---**
Snake... Fist!
**[06:30] ---**
Did you get him?
**[06:36] ---**
Bastard!
**[06:40] ---**
Wh-What?!
**[06:43] ---**
Fudou!
**[06:46] ---**
Are you all right?
**[06:48] ---**
Hmm...
**[06:51] ---**
Mundock-*san*!
**[06:52] ---**
You think maybe...
**[06:54] ---**
that even someone like me made
a bit of a difference in the world?
**[06:59] ---**
Yes!
**[07:00] ---**
Really?
**[07:02] ---**
That's good.
**[07:04] ---**
Please rest a bit.
**[07:07] ---**
I'll take over from here.
**[07:13] ---**
Comrades? What're you saying?
**[07:16] ---**
My only comrades are
the Apostles of the Stars!
**[07:19] ---**
The only comrade I can
trust is the power of Tao!
**[07:22] ---**
No, you're wrong about that.
**[07:27] ---**
You're so bothersome.
**[07:29] ---**
This is why I say girls are...
**[07:31] ---**
Oops!
**[07:34] ---**
That won't work!
**[07:37] ---**
Eve, if you ever see Leon somewhere,
**[07:40] ---**
there's something I'd
like you to tell him for me.
**[07:43] ---**
"We're all waiting here for your return."
**[07:47] ---**
Will you tell him that?
**[07:49] ---**
Yes...
**[07:50] ---**
Thank you.
**[07:51] ---**
Sure...
**[07:53] ---**
because I'm your...
**[07:55] ---**
uhm... friend, Layla.
**[08:05] ---**
Wind?!
**[08:12] ---**
You can't defeat me
with that level of attack.
**[08:35] ---**
You think you can hide in the water?!
**[08:41] ---**
I see you clearly!
**[08:44] ---**
She's so fast!
**[08:52] ---**
What the...?!
**[08:54] ---**
Transformation?
**[09:15] ---**
Why you!!
**[09:22] ---**
Dammit!
**[09:24] ---**
Why... do you fight?
**[09:27] ---**
For my comrades in
the Apostles of the Stars!
**[09:29] ---**
No...
**[09:30] ---**
your comrades are not
the Apostles of the Stars!
**[09:34] ---**
Shut up!
**[09:49] ---**
The legs?! It can't transform its legs?!
**[09:56] ---**
River!
**[10:05] ---**
River, now! He can't move!
**[10:07] ---**
Blast him!
**[10:12] ---**
I ain't gonna give you time to transform!
**[10:21] ---**
Geez, you've wasted our time!
**[10:24] ---**
Hey, River!
**[10:28] ---**
Look, River!
**[10:30] ---**
Yeah...
**[10:31] ---**
Looks like that was just the first one...
**[10:33] ---**
But we know how to beat them now!
**[10:36] ---**
I'll smash every one of 'em!
**[10:57] ---**
Ha! Nothing but small fries...
**[11:00] ---**
Then I'll take you on.
**[11:11] ---**
Well, here's a staunch... no, meaty one.
**[11:15] ---**
Sephiria, leave this ball of fat to me.
**[11:19] ---**
Ball of...
**[11:21] ---**
David...
**[11:22] ---**
I can handle this meatball by myself.
**[11:25] ---**
Meatball?!
**[11:26] ---**
I understand. I will leave
this hunk of flesh to you.
**[11:30] ---**
Hunk of... Hey, are you running away?!
**[11:34] ---**
Gravity Thrust!
**[11:37] ---**
Hold it! I said I'm your opponent!
**[11:41] ---**
I see... then prepare to be smashed!
**[11:43] ---**
Here!
**[11:46] ---**
Here goes!
**[11:51] ---**
What?!
**[11:52] ---**
It's useless, so useless!
**[11:54] ---**
I can manipulate gravity
to create a high-G-force area.
**[11:59] ---**
Any projectile weapon, bullets, whatever...
**[12:02] ---**
is useless against me!
**[12:04] ---**
Oh, thank you kindly for that information.
**[12:08] ---**
Die!
**[12:09] ---**
Gravity Bomb!
**[12:12] ---**
--Damn! I'll be in trouble
if I take a direct hit.
**[12:14] ---**
--Gravity Thrust!
**[12:15] ---**
--Damn!
**[12:19] ---**
You're not much, Chrono Number!
**[12:23] ---**
Take that! And that! And that!
**[12:29] ---**
If my cards don't work,
I guess I have no choice...
**[12:33] ---**
You won't get away!
**[12:36] ---**
Darn it!
**[12:44] ---**
Ha! You can go to hell!
**[12:51] ---**
What?! It's huge!
**[12:55] ---**
You or me? Who has the stronger bones?
**[13:09] ---**
Creed...
**[13:11] ---**
Creed is the only adult
who acknowledged me!
**[13:14] ---**
The Apostles of the Stars
is a revolutionary group
**[13:18] ---**
that will bring peace to this world!
**[13:23] ---**
Your back is wide open!
**[13:30] ---**
You can even do that?!
**[13:33] ---**
But this time, I'm coming from here!
**[13:42] ---**
Wha...?!
**[13:44] ---**
You can do anything, huh?!
**[13:49] ---**
What?!
**[13:52] ---**
H-How can I lose to
someone soft like her?
**[13:56] ---**
Why can't I win?
**[14:01] ---**
Why doesn't my power work against her?
**[14:04] ---**
I risked my life to become a
member of the Apostles of the Stars...
**[14:07] ---**
and I obtained the power!
**[14:14] ---**
Playtime is now over.
**[14:17] ---**
My next... my next
attack will end this battle.
**[14:21] ---**
I'll put all of my *ki* energy into it!
**[14:25] ---**
What the...?!
**[14:30] ---**
David!
**[14:37] ---**
Black Cat...
**[14:40] ---**
After all this time...
**[14:43] ---**
you have to see me like this!
**[14:45] ---**
But that guy looks
worse than me, doesn't he?
**[15:04] ---**
Death Twister...
**[15:07] ---**
I'm not gonna fool around.
**[15:09] ---**
This is my ultimate technique!!
**[15:46] ---**
What? Are you done already?!
**[15:48] ---**
I have lots left in me!
**[15:50] ---**
Hey, aren't you gonna run?!
**[15:52] ---**
Sheesh...
**[15:53] ---**
Don't tell me you'll be
a still target for me?
**[15:57] ---**
Hey! Don't take me lightly, girl!
**[16:00] ---**
Transform!
**[16:09] ---**
It's useless... even if you
turn your whole body into steel!
**[16:15] ---**
I cannot lose! I will *not* give up!
**[16:19] ---**
Because... I promised!
**[16:25] ---**
Why?! Why isn't it working?!
**[16:31] ---**
I'll crush you!!
**[16:43] ---**
Wha...?!
**[16:49] ---**
Can't be!
**[16:57] ---**
How... could... I have... lost?
**[17:08] ---**
Wh-what? Why're you guys running away?
**[17:12] ---**
We're all comrades of the
Apostles of the Stars, right?
**[17:15] ---**
Why aren't you helping me?
**[17:18] ---**
You lost.
**[17:20] ---**
Not to make-believe comrades...
**[17:22] ---**
but to your true comrades.
**[17:23] ---**
Shut up!
**[17:25] ---**
My only comrades are
the Apostles of the Stars.
**[17:28] ---**
True comrades share
something stronger than power.
**[17:33] ---**
Something stronger than power?
**[17:36] ---**
Yes, the strength to care about others.
**[17:41] ---**
I've lost. So kill me.
**[17:44] ---**
My goal is not to take your life.
**[17:49] ---**
All I want is stop you
from abusing your power.
**[17:56] ---**
I hate grown-ups who don't make sense.
**[18:00] ---**
Everyone died because
of unreasonable adults.
**[18:04] ---**
They start pointless wars...
**[18:07] ---**
without a thought for
those who are left behind.
**[18:11] ---**
Leon...
**[18:13] ---**
Every day was hell.
**[18:16] ---**
It took everything just to survive.
**[18:19] ---**
That's why I wanted power.
**[18:22] ---**
Then I'd change this world...
**[18:25] ---**
and create a future
for those of us left behind.
**[18:29] ---**
I wanted a world of happiness.
**[18:33] ---**
People are living happily,
without your doing so.
**[18:38] ---**
You're a strange one.
**[18:41] ---**
You're just like a girl I know.
**[18:44] ---**
Yes, that's right...
**[18:47] ---**
because I'm Layla's friend.
**[18:51] ---**
I see...
**[18:53] ---**
Say...
**[18:54] ---**
Yes?
**[18:56] ---**
Was I... wrong?
**[18:59] ---**
No...
**[19:00] ---**
you just took a detour, that's all.
**[19:09] ---**
It seems Leon has lost...
**[19:12] ---**
What'll you do, Creed?
**[19:15] ---**
Leon?
**[19:18] ---**
I don't know anyone by that name.
**[19:24] ---**
Wh-What the...?!
**[19:27] ---**
Sven!
**[19:29] ---**
Eve! Are you all right?
**[19:31] ---**
Uh-huh...
**[19:32] ---**
You guys want to find Creed, right?
**[19:37] ---**
It's useless. No one can top Creed.
**[19:41] ---**
His... his power right now is...
**[19:53] ---**
Are you all right, Gallom?
**[19:54] ---**
Yeah...
**[19:55] ---**
Gallom... how about
we do it like old times?
**[19:57] ---**
Looks like the time has come to do it.
**[20:00] ---**
--Let's go!
**[20:00] ---**
--Let's go!
**[20:02] ---**
--You'll regret this!
**[20:02] ---**
--You'll regret this!
**[20:04] ---**
--We'll fight you someday!
**[20:04] ---**
--We'll fight you someday!
**[20:06] ---**
--Arghh! Dammit!
**[20:06] ---**
--Arghh! Dammit!
**[20:16] ---**
Eve! Sven!
**[20:18] ---**
Train!
**[20:21] ---**
You all right?
**[20:22] ---**
Yes.
**[20:23] ---**
This is it. Stay on your gua...
**[20:26] ---**
What's going on?!
**[20:27] ---**
Silphy!
**[20:32] ---**
You're...
**[20:33] ---**
Preta Ghoul!
**[20:37] ---**
I'll kill each and every sweeper!
**[20:40] ---**
I'll dissolve you all one after another!
**[20:42] ---**
And you can rot to death!
**[20:44] ---**
That power... is also Tao Power!
**[20:47] ---**
Train, leave him to me.
**[20:51] ---**
You go to Creed!
**[20:53] ---**
Sven!
**[20:54] ---**
I'm a gentleman,
**[20:57] ---**
and I won't stand for anyone
treating a woman this way!
**[21:06] ---**
Well then, let's start the show, shall we?!
**[21:10] ---**
You ought to just give up now!!
**[21:23] ---**
Creed-*sama*! Chrono Numbers' No. I
is in the passage on the third floor!
**[21:32] ---**
Soon... It'll soon be complete, Train!
**[21:38] ---**

Intent and Friendship,"

*from that witch's spell!*
