**[00:01] Angelico**
Listen, if we don't know,
then we should go back.
**[00:04] Raphael**
I don't want to go home.
**[00:06] Angelico**
Come on, Raphael.
**[00:08] Angelico**
Raphael, let's go home!
**[00:26] Kiki**
Good grief!
**[00:28] Kiki**
I figured I should keep an eye on you,
and wouldn't you know it?
**[00:31] Elena**
Miss!
**[00:33] Kiki**
Yeah, okay, put a lid on it!
**[00:35] Kiki**
Unbelievable... What are you doing,
just wandering the streets at night?
**[00:41] Raphael**
Grandpa's house...
**[00:44] Kiki**
Never thought the intel we had Maurice
swipe would prove useful in this fashion.
**[00:53] Raphael**
Excuse me. I'm here to see Grandpa.
**[00:56] Guard B**
Who are you kids?
**[00:59] Raphael**
Um, my name is Raphael Delico.
**[01:02] Raphael**
Please, let me see Grandpa.
**[01:06] Guard B**
Wait, Delico as in...
**[01:08] Elena**
We had better thank that nice lady.
**[01:11] Elena**
Huh?
**[01:12] Lucia**
Miss?
**[01:15] Henrique**
I never dreamed the kids would drop by
Lord Johannes's place on their own.
**[01:20] Gerhard**
I'm just relieved they aren't hurt.
**[01:25] Gerhard**
What's wrong, Dali?
**[01:27] Dali**
It makes me wonder how much I really
understand my own children...
**[01:32] Dali**
I'm a sad excuse for a father.
**[01:33] Gerhard**
The same could be said for me.
**[01:36] Dino**
Likewise, I'm afraid.
**[01:38] Henrique**
It's okay, though. The kids will grow,
and we'll grow as parents alongside them.
**[01:44] Dali**
Yes, you're right.
**[01:46] Dali**
Let's take the children back to the
nursery and be especially kind to them.
**[02:58] Sign**
Delico's Nursery
**[03:25] Sign**
Battle Amidst Flames
**[03:41] Johannes**
I suppose this is the nursery now.
**[03:46] Johannes**
Your father is Sir Dino, correct?
**[03:52] Johannes**
The Classico family is one of great prestige.
**[03:55] Johannes**
You'll likely stand at its head one day.
**[04:02] Johannes**
I'm curious... Have you had coffee before?
**[04:05] Theodore**
N-No, sir.
**[04:06] Johannes**
Well, would you care to give it a try?
**[04:08] Theodore**
Y-Yes!
**[04:28] Theodore**
It's bitter...
**[04:30] Johannes**
Yes, indeed, I suppose it's not
to a child's tastes.
**[04:34] Theodore**
I'm not a child.
**[04:39] Johannes**
I won't chastise you for trying to act older,
**[04:41] Johannes**
but your childhood is something
you only get to experience once.
**[04:45] Johannes**
Once it's gone, you'll never
have anything like it again.
**[04:49] Johannes**
You'll be an adult soon enough,
whether you like it or not.
**[04:53] Johannes**
Which is why you should
enjoy these youthful days.
**[04:58] Bear**
*What's with this geezer?*
**[05:00] Bunny**
*He's got a point, though.*
**[05:03] Secretary**
My lord, someone has come
to fetch the children.
**[05:07] Johannes**
Oh, it sounds like Sir Dali and the others
have arrived. Show them in!
**[05:15] Johannes**
Who're you?!
**[05:32] Henrique**
A fire?!
**[05:33] Dino**
Where are the children?
**[05:36] Gerhard**
Dali!
**[05:37] Dino**
We're going too!
**[05:44] Dali**
The Police of the Blood?
**[05:53] Dali**
Unbelievable...
**[05:55] Henrique**
Dino, are these guys...
**[05:57] Dino**
Yes.
**[05:58] Dino**
It seems they've all fallen
under someone's initiative.
**[06:08] Dali**
They're just being controlled!
Don't kill them!
**[06:12] Gerhard**
I know!
**[06:13] Gerhard**
Dali, leave this to us!
**[06:16] Dali**
Good luck!
**[06:29] Catalina**
Hi!
**[06:30] Catalina**
Didn't expect to run into you again so soon.
**[06:34] Kiki**
I guess this is round two, then.
**[06:40] Catalina**
He spews oil just as he strikes the flint.
**[06:44] Catalina**
Not the neatest solution, but when it
works, it results in full body burns!
**[06:48] Kiki**
As for me... *these* are all I need!
**[06:54] Catalina**
Come now, let's have some fun!
**[06:58] Kiki**
Lemme show you some love too!
**[07:16] Dali**
I appreciate you two being so kind
as to clear a path for me.
**[07:20] Dali**
Much obliged.
**[07:23] Kiki**
I... I can't believe he got away.
**[07:27] Kiki**
I am going to love the ever-living
daylights out of you, Dali Delico!
**[07:37] Keith**
Pretty sweet moves for
someone your age, old-timer.
**[07:40] Johannes**
I'll have you know I was
quite formidable in my youth.
**[08:03] Keith**
Wasting too much of our time...
**[08:08] Raphael**
Father!
**[08:10] Dali**
Hello, children. I've come to pick you up.
**[08:27] Gerhard**
Fighting while holding back
lethal force is quite a challenge.
**[08:30] Dino**
We could always kill them.
**[08:33] Henrique**
No way, man. They're just a bunch of officers
being controlled with initiative.
**[08:48] Henrique**
Kate?!
**[08:49] Kate**
I'm here to assist!
**[08:56] Albrecht**
Despite how I look, you'll find I'm
familiar with some pankration.
**[09:01] Kate**
Where's Sir Dali?
**[09:02] Henrique**
He went for the kids.
**[09:05] Kate**
We'll hold them off here.
**[09:08] Kate**
You three, go after Sir Dali.
**[09:10] Dino**
We'll take you up on that offer.
**[09:13] Henrique**
We're counting on you.
**[09:15] Henrique**
Man, I really have great taste
in women. You're amazing.
**[09:19] Kate**
Get moving already!
**[09:22] Kate**
Try not to slow me down.
**[09:24] Albrecht**
I'll do what I can.
**[09:27] Albrecht**
Now, I suppose it's time for work.
**[09:39] Keith**
Hurry up and end this.
**[09:53] Juras**
Die!
**[09:56] Raphael**
Stop!
**[09:57] Raphael**
Get off of my father!
**[09:59] Raphael**
You villain!
**[10:02] Juras**
Little brat...
**[10:03] Juras**
Move!
**[10:05] Dali**
Raphael!
**[10:06] Juras**
No one can get in my way.
**[10:09] Juras**
Not until I have vengeance on TRUMP.
**[10:11] Dali**
Vengeance?
**[10:18] Keith**
What, you lose your mind?
**[10:21] Dali**
It's the smell. It absolutely reeks.
**[10:23] Dali**
Like the stench of a giant gutter rat.
**[10:26] Dali**
You're a dhampir, aren't you?
**[10:34] Dali**
Sorry, but I can't die just yet.
**[10:40] Juras**
Damn you!
**[10:46] Catalina**
Honestly, could we just walk
around normally for once?
**[10:48] Kiki**
This is way faster!
**[10:52] Keith**
Tough break, Dali Delico...
You're out of options.
**[10:57] Dali**
You never know until you try.
**[11:00] Catalina**
Is that right?
**[11:03] Catalina**
There!
**[11:05] Kiki**
You're done!
**[11:11] Catalina**
I suppose it's time for the finale.
**[11:20] Catalina**
Were you trying to break my nose?!
**[11:25] Dali**
The masked one...
**[11:27] Juras**
Right here!
**[11:33] Juras**
I have you now, Dali Delico.
**[11:45] Sign**
Delico's Nursery
**[12:15] Dali**
You'll have to try harder.
**[12:17] Catalina**
Goodness, you must really hate losing.
**[12:20] Juras**
Once we scoop out his heart,
we won't have to hear any more banter.
**[12:25] Keith**
Hey, I like the sound of that.
**[12:29] Gerhard**
Dali!
**[12:30] Henrique**
Dali-boy, can you stand?
**[12:32] Dali**
Yeah.
**[12:33] Keith**
We had a little too much fun.
Fighting you people wasn't part of the plan.
**[12:40] Catalina**
You'd best hurry up and take care of your
darling Dali-boy before he bleeds out.
**[12:47] Theodore**
Stop! Put us down!
**[12:49] Theodore**
Let us go, you lout!
**[12:51] Angelico**
Father!
**[12:52] Elena**
What do you think you're doing?!
**[12:54] Lucia**
Put us down!
**[12:57] Gerhard**
What do you think you're doing?!
**[12:59] Keith**
Oh, we just need their help a bit.
Don't worry. We won't kill them.
**[13:04] Keith**
Not right away, anyway.
**[13:06] Dino**
You really think we'd let you get away?
**[13:11] Keith**
See you next time, you proud bunch of nobles.
**[13:15] Dino**
Damn you!
**[13:22] Dino**
Theodore!
**[13:24] Dali**
After them...
**[13:26] Henrique**
Not you, Dali-boy.
Not in the shape you're in.
**[13:28] Dali**
I'm the one who got the children involved.
**[13:31] Dali**
If I had never come up with the nursery,
none of this would have happened.
**[13:37] Gerhard**
You need to assess the situation calmly!
**[13:40] Gerhard**
If something were to happen to you,
Dali Delico, who would save the children?
**[13:49] Kate**
Ruminating on what's done
won't get us anywhere.
**[13:52] Kate**
We need to reorient ourselves
and consider our next steps.
**[13:57] Albrecht**
I agree with that.
**[14:04] Dali**
Ul!
**[14:06] Gerhard**
Crying?
**[14:07] Henrique**
He's still somewhere in here!
**[14:30] Dali**
Hello, Ul. Boy, am I glad to see you well.
**[14:54] Henrique**
How'd it go?
**[14:56] Dino**
Well...
**[14:57] Dino**
All of the officers who had been put
under initiative are now hospitalized.
**[15:04] Dino**
They've been given the usual treatment, but...
**[15:08] Gerhard**
Once placed on someone,
initiative cannot be removed.
**[15:12] Dino**
Which is why all of the officers
have been taken into custody.
**[15:16] Henrique**
Man, I can't believe they
managed to bite so many...
**[15:20] Gerhard**
Their objective is to uncover
the TRUE OF VAMP's whereabouts.
**[15:24] Gerhard**
But in order to keep that from getting out,
everyone in the Vlad Agency
**[15:30] Gerhard**
is under Lord Johannes's initiative.
**[15:34] Dino**
That explains why they went after
Lord Johannes, the head of the agency himself.
**[15:39] Henrique**
But why take the kids?
**[15:41] Gerhard**
Most likely as hostages to force
Lord Johannes into talking.
**[15:47] Kate**
The fact that he's with the
children is a small blessing.
**[15:51] Kate**
He's known for his wit. He won't
make things easy for the enemy.
**[15:57] Dali**
I'm not so sure.
**[15:59] Henrique**
Dali-boy!
**[16:00] Dali**
Lord Johannes is part of the Vlad clan.
**[16:03] Dali**
Their entire bloodline has been
dedicated to protecting the TRUE OF VAMP.
**[16:09] Dali**
And protecting TRUMP is tantamount
to defending the entire vampire race.
**[16:14] Dino**
Then it goes without saying
which Lord Johannes would choose
**[16:18] Dino**
between all of Vampkind
and the children, doesn't it?
**[16:23] Henrique**
We work for the Vlad Agency too, meaning
we might have to make the same choice.
**[16:29] Kate**
Henrique, are you...
**[16:33] Henrique**
Not that I could make the call myself.
I mean, they're our children.
**[16:38] Henrique**
If it comes down to our kind or our kids,
I'm picking Lucia and Elena.
**[16:46] Dino**
I feel no need to reproach your outlook,
**[16:49] Dino**
seeing as it will be a nonissue
if we rescue the children in time.
**[16:53] Gerhard**
Here's hoping Lord Johannes will
be able to buy us some time.
**[16:58] Dali**
We'll just have to have faith
**[17:01] Dali**
However, there's a limit to how
long he can afford us.
**[17:05] Dali**
If forced to make a choice, Lord Johannes
*will* choose TRUMP over our children.
**[17:16] Henrique**
Dali-boy sure is taking a while.
**[17:18] Henrique**
Think he'll be much longer?
**[17:28] Dali**
Look after him.
**[17:29] Ferdinand**
We will ensure Master Ul's safety.
**[17:32] Clara**
Even at the cost of our lives.
**[17:34] Dali**
Don't say that. We shall return
with the other children.
**[17:39] Dali**
This child-raising experience has only begun.
**[17:43] Dali**
And to that end,
we'll continue to need your help.
**[17:46] Clara**
Sir...
**[17:53] Dali**
Clara, Ferdinand, we'll be back. Until then.
**[17:58] Clara**
Right.
**[18:00] Ferdinand**
Please take care, sir.
**[18:10] Clara**
Yes, I'm sure your father will
return with Master Raphael in tow.
**[18:17] Clara**
Things will just be a bit lonely until then.
**[18:27] Gerhard**
What is the purpose of returning to the
Delico estate after all that's happened?
**[18:31] Dali**
I'm curious about something.
**[18:33] Henrique**
And what's that?
**[18:35] Dali**
I noticed an odd member
among Pendulum's ranks.
**[18:40] Dino**
Spare me the intrigue.
What are you talking about?
**[18:45] Dali**
One of them smelled like a gutter rat.
**[18:47] Henrique**
A gutter rat?
**[18:49] Gerhard**
You mean a dhampir?
**[18:50] Dino**
In other words, the offspring
of a Vamp and a human.
**[18:55] Dino**
Their blood is supposed
to smell repugnant to vampires.
**[19:00] Gerhard**
What difference does it make
if there's a dhampir in Pendulum?
**[19:05] Dali**
We've been unable to find a
single trail leading to them.
**[19:08] Dali**
But this might be the clue we need.
**[19:23] Henrique**
A hidden stairway, huh?
**[19:26] Dali**
Come along.
**[19:30] Henrique**
This is kinda exciting.
**[19:33] Gerhard**
Where exactly does this lead?
**[19:40] Dali**
An underground archive.
**[19:42] Gerhard**
On what?
**[19:44] Dali**
Any and all information
regarding the TRUE OF VAMP.
**[19:49] Gerhard**
What?!
**[19:50] Dino**
You mean to say you've
taken top-secret documents?
**[19:54] Dali**
I didn't *take* them. These are all copies.
**[19:58] Gerhard**
It makes no difference!
**[20:00] Gerhard**
How could a member of the
Vlad Agency do such a thing?!
**[20:03] Dali**
Well, now that the originals have
been stolen, it should prove handy.
**[20:07] Dino**
This is a massive breach of protocol...
**[20:10] Dino**
But I say it's worth overlooking right now.
**[20:13] Dali**
I'll accept whatever punishment later.
**[20:15] Henrique**
So, what are we looking up?
**[20:18] Dali**
When I fought that dhampir,
it reminded me of something.
**[20:23] Dali**
And not some long-forgotten factoid, either.
**[20:26] Dali**
No, it was something quite recent...
**[20:30] Dali**
Here we are. This is it.
**[20:31] Henrique**
Whatcha got there?
**[20:33] Dali**
There was an incident in a rural
town roughly a year ago.
**[20:38] Dali**
This is the case file on Nebula Village,
whose inhabitants were all dhampirs.
**[20:43] Gerhard**
The Nebula Village massacre...
**[20:46] Dino**
It was even brought up among the Vlad Agency.
**[20:50] Dali**
Nebula Village was burned down and it's
population was slaughtered by TRUMP.
**[20:56] Dali**
It no longer exists.
**[21:00] (Flashback) Juras**
No one can get in my way.
Not until I have vengeance on TRUMP.
**[21:05] (Flashback) Dali**
Vengeance?
**[21:07] Dali**
He must be a survivor from Nebula Village.
**[21:20] Lucia**
You dodged!
**[21:23] Elena**
My turn next!
**[21:25] Angelico**
But I found it first!
**[21:28] Raphael**
No, it was me!
**[21:35] Catalina**
Kids can really adapt to anything, huh?
**[21:39] Kiki**
It's like we're running a nursery.
**[21:42] Angelico**
But it's mine!
