**[00:14] Keith**
Hey.
**[00:15] Keith**
Hey, girl, wake up.
**[00:18] Keith**
Wake up, damn it.
**[00:20] Keith**
Come on.
**[00:22] Kiki**
Just a little longer...
**[00:26] Keith**
You're dead!
**[00:34] Lucia**
You're amazing, Kiki!
**[00:37] Kiki**
You think? Am I really that amazing?
**[00:40] Elena**
You too, scruffy!
**[00:43] Keith**
This ain't a damn show.
**[00:45] Catarina**
This feels a touch spicy
for a bit of morning exercise.
**[00:49] Lucia**
Hey, hey, Catarina!
Can you do stuff like that too?
**[00:52] Catarina**
Oh, of course, honey. Piece of cake.
**[01:00] Catarina**
Excuse me? We need these hostages.
Don't do anything stupid.
**[01:05] Juras**
This isn't a nursery.
**[01:07] Juras**
Rotten noble brats...
**[02:13] Sign**
Delico's Nursery
**[02:41] Sign**
Thus Spoke Juras
**[02:51] Keith**
Yo.
**[02:52] Keith**
So much for the proud, noble
scion of the Vlad family, huh?
**[02:59] Johannes**
Pride is more than a mere matter
of appearance. Nothing has changed.
**[03:04] Catarina**
I find it lovely how strong you're
trying to come across, sir.
**[03:07] Catarina**
You're actually quite dashing.
**[03:09] Keith**
Well, let's get right to the damn point.
**[03:14] Keith**
Where can we find TRUMP?
**[03:21] Johannes**
The TRUE OF VAMP, eh? You honestly
believe in that fairy tale?
**[03:27] Keith**
It's a little late to start trying
to blow hot air at us, pal...
**[03:30] Keith**
seeing as the guy in the mask here
has met TRUMP before.
**[03:43] Johannes**
What do you intend to do
upon finding the TRUE OF VAMP?
**[03:46] Keith**
Good question.
**[03:48] Keith**
We're acting on the boss's orders, and I've
got no idea what the hell he's thinking.
**[03:54] Keith**
But he wants us to suss out
where TRUMP is hiding.
**[03:58] Johannes**
The TRUE OF VAMP is a very precarious deity.
**[04:01] Johannes**
We can't risk direct interaction.
**[04:04] Johannes**
All we can really do is keep watch.
**[04:08] Keith**
Yeah, that's not what I'm asking.
**[04:12] Catarina**
You could really stand
to slow down some, you know?
**[04:17] Keith**
TRUMP can't die, right?!
**[04:21] Keith**
Makes me wonder how you kill what's
supposed to be immune to death...
**[04:27] Keith**
That's as far as my interest goes.
**[04:30] Johannes**
A cocoon period addiction?
**[04:32] Juras**
Lord Johannes.
**[04:35] Juras**
We're willing to wait one week.
Take that time to think it over.
**[04:40] Juras**
If you remain unwilling to tell us where
to find TRUMP by then...
**[04:44] Keith**
We start killing the brats one by one.
**[04:47] Keith**
Right in front of you.
**[04:50] Johannes**
Do as you will.
**[04:51] Johannes**
The survival of our kind takes precedence
over the lives of even children.
**[04:57] Keith**
It'll be interesting to find out
if you're not just playing cool.
**[05:11] Catarina**
Say, Kiki, what is all this?
**[05:14] Keith**
What did you do?
**[05:17] Kiki**
Well? Pretty amazing, right?
**[05:19] Kiki**
Abraham and I put this all together!
**[05:25] Kiki**
I used a good chunk of my money to make
sure the kids won't get bored.
**[05:30] Kiki**
Abraham went halfsies with me. Didn't you?
**[05:36] Catarina**
Well, now it really does look like a nursery.
**[05:39] Keith**
Have you lost your mind? This isn't a game.
**[05:41] Catarina**
Oh, what's the harm?
I don't mind such things.
**[05:47] Lucia**
Wow!
**[05:49] Angelico**
Can we play?
**[05:51] Kiki**
Of course! You can do whatever
you want while you're here.
**[05:56] Lucia**
Thank you, Kiki!
**[05:58] Kiki**
You're welcome.
**[05:58] Catarina**
Help yourselves.
**[06:00] Twins; unmarked AD**
Thank you!
**[06:03] Angelico**
Come on, Raphael!
**[06:05] Raphael**
O-Okay.
**[06:08] Angelico; unmarked AD**
Over here!
**[06:12] Kiki**
What's wrong? Don't you want to play?
**[06:18] Theodore**
When will you let us go home?
**[06:21] Kiki**
Uh, well, that's a good question.
**[06:24] Kiki**
I don't actually know myself.
**[06:26] Kiki**
Hey, Keith, how long are
the kids gonna be here?
**[06:30] Keith**
How the hell should I know?
**[06:32] Kiki**
He is such a pain.
**[06:34] Catarina**
I'm sorry we had to drag you into this.
**[06:37] Catarina**
I don't know when it will be,
**[06:40] Catarina**
but we'll make sure you get home,
so don't you worry.
**[06:43] Theodore**
I can't trust anything bad people say.
**[06:46] Catarina**
Listen here, sweetie. Children really are
supposed to be, you know, childlike.
**[06:50] Theodore**
I'm no child.
**[06:52] Kiki**
Well, if you're not a kid, then what are you?
**[06:56] Theodore**
I am the proud future head of House Classico.
**[06:59] Theodore**
I'm an aristocrat.
**[07:00] Theodore**
Nothing like you people.
**[07:07] Kiki**
Hold it.
**[07:10] Kiki**
What the hell is this?
**[07:13] Kiki**
Wanna see what happens
if you do anything to them?
**[07:15] Kiki**
I'll beat you to a pulp.
**[07:20] Juras**
Suit yourself.
**[07:23] Kiki**
What's his problem? You think he hates kids?
**[07:27] Catarina**
I wouldn't say it's *all* kids.
Just the babes of aristocrats.
**[07:32] Kiki**
You sound like you know what his deal is.
**[07:35] Catarina**
Well, maybe I do.
**[07:41] Kate**
So, what did you want?
**[07:44] Dali**
Kate Lorca, chief of the
Vlad Agency's intelligence office...
**[07:48] Dali**
I'd like to make a small request of you.
**[07:51] Kate**
Sir Dali.
**[07:52] Kate**
You must know that I do not care for you.
**[07:55] Dali**
Why, I appreciate your honesty.
**[07:59] Kate**
Lord Johannes seems to think highly of you,
**[08:02] Kate**
but I can't endorse your brazen bucking
of order in the execution of your duties.
**[08:09] Gerhard**
There's no contest against that.
**[08:12] Dino**
Quite. Keep going, in fact.
**[08:15] Kate**
I also haven't forgiven you
for dragging the children into this yet.
**[08:21] Kate**
That said, I realize you never
intended for this to happen.
**[08:27] Dali**
I appreciate that.
**[08:29] Dino**
A very productive outlook.
**[08:31] Dino**
You appear to have a
fine partner, Sir Henrique.
**[08:34] Henrique**
I know, right?
**[08:36] Dino**
She frankly seems wasted on you.
**[08:39] Henrique**
Hey, I don't know about that!
**[08:42] Henrique**
Right, Kate? I'm a good husband, right?
**[08:46] Kate**
We're on duty. Enough personal chitchat.
**[08:50] Henrique**
'Kay...
**[08:51] Kate**
Now then, what do you need from me?
**[08:54] Dali**
I need intel. About the incident at
Nebula Village dating one year back.
**[09:02] Kate**
Nebula Village?
**[09:06] Kate**
As you're aware, dhampirs are
the offspring of vampires and humans
**[09:13] Kate**
and outcasts to both populations.
**[09:17] Kate**
Nebula Village was founded
by dhampirs in an attempt
**[09:22] Kate**
to escape bigotry and mistreatment.
**[09:26] Kate**
Dhampirs are susceptible
to congenital illnesses,
**[09:31] Kate**
resulting in a shorter average lifespan.
**[09:34] Kate**
Perhaps the fact that the village inhabitants
worshiped the immortal TRUE OF VAMP
**[09:40] Kate**
was a natural result of that.
**[09:45] Kate**
But then, one day, the TRUE OF VAMP
descended on the village.
**[09:51] Henrique**
Why'd the TRUE OF VAMP show up in Nebula?
**[09:54] Kate**
I can't say.
**[09:56] Kate**
There's not much to be gained
from speculating on the whims of a god.
**[10:02] Gerhard**
And was it on a whim that the
TRUE OF VAMP slaughtered the villagers?
**[10:06] Kate**
It's hard to say.
**[10:08] Kate**
It was similar to the collapse phenomenon,
**[10:11] Kate**
the mass dying off of Vamps said to be
**[10:13] Kate**
caused by TRUMP's mental instability
and initiative feedback.
**[10:17] Kate**
The people of Nebula Village began killing
each other out of the blue one day.
**[10:24] Kate**
Thus was Nebula Village wiped off the map.
**[10:28] Dino**
And you're suggesting that someone
survived this collapse?
**[10:33] Dali**
Yes, that's right.
**[10:35] Kate**
Indeed, there are three confirmed
survivors who made it out
**[10:40] Kate**
of the collapse of Nebula Village.
**[10:42] Gerhard**
What became of them?
**[10:45] Kate**
One was an infant at the time
and was taken into a dhampir orphanage.
**[10:50] Kate**
One was a young boy.
**[10:52] Kate**
He was adopted by a human,
a hunter who attended to the incident.
**[10:57] Kate**
The other is missing.
**[11:00] Dali**
And who's that?
**[11:02] Kate**
Shad Juras.
**[11:03] Kate**
He was an advisor to the village mayor.
**[11:07] Kate**
He was found on the scene covered head
to toe in burns and nearly perished.
**[11:12] Kate**
He was immediately transported
to a Blood Pact hospital before vanishing.
**[11:20] Dali**
That's him. I'm sure of it.
**[11:23] Kate**
You think Shad Juras has
something to do this?
**[11:27] Dali**
Indeed.
**[11:28] Dali**
Dhampir blood. Full-body burns.
Hatred for the TRUE OF VAMP.
**[11:35] Dali**
I'm positive he's joined up with Pendulum.
**[11:45] Catarina**
He told me a story once.
**[11:48] Catarina**
I think he must've been drunk,
since he was unusually chatty.
**[11:55] Kiki**
Doesn't sound like him.
**[11:57] Catarina**
Juras hails from Gray Cat Town originally.
**[12:01] Catarina**
And he met someone very important here.
**[12:05] Kiki**
Ooh, what do you mean?
Are we talking romance?
**[12:09] Catarina**
Yes, we are.
**[12:13] Catarina**
A fateful encounter most cruel and tender.
**[12:22] Sign**
Delico's Nursery
**[12:28] (Flashback) Merchant**
Step right up and take a look, folks!
**[12:31] (Flashback) Merchant**
From beef to lamb to hare to snake,
I've got blood of all types!
**[12:37] (Flashback) Merchant**
How about it, ma'am? Nice and fresh!
**[12:40] (Flashback) Woman**
I'll take three jars of hare.
**[12:42] (Flashback) Merchant**
Much obliged!
**[12:43] (Flashback) Merchant**
Hey! You again?!
**[12:45] (Flashback) Woman**
Wait!
**[12:47] (Flashback) Merchant**
Filthy dhampir brat!
**[12:53] Catarina**
Being a dhampir meant Juras was
abandoned by his parents at birth,
**[12:58] Catarina**
and he grew up without any family.
**[13:00] Kiki**
Well, people do hate dhampirs.
**[13:04] Kiki**
That sounds about par.
**[13:17] Catarina**
Juras managed to survive
after a dhampir woman took him in.
**[13:23] Catarina**
But...
**[13:25] Catarina**
Dhampirs don't live for long.
**[13:29] Catarina**
After his adoptive mother died,
**[13:32] Catarina**
Juras survived by drinking her blood.
**[13:38] Kiki**
Guess he really must've wanted to live.
**[13:40] Catarina**
And yet this world is too cruel for a
dhampir child to survive in on his own.
**[13:50] (Flashback) Noble Kid A**
Ew, he's drinking rat blood!
**[13:54] (Flashback) Noble Kid A**
Something stinks. He must be a dhampir.
**[13:56] (Flashback) Noble Kid A**
How can you drink such filthy blood?
**[13:59] (Flashback) Noble Parent**
Don't you kids bother with that urchin.
**[14:03] (Flashback) Noble Kid A**
Let's go. He's disgusting.
**[14:05] (Flashback) Noble Kid B**
Yeah.
**[14:06] (Flashback) NOble Kid A**
Get out of our town!
You make it smell like a sewer!
**[14:11] (Flashback) NOble Kid A**
You little—
**[14:14] (Flashback) NOble Kid A**
You're just a dhampir! How dare you?!
**[14:18] (Flashback) NOble Kid A**
See what happens when
you defy your betters?!
**[14:29] (Flashback) Rosa**
Are you okay?
**[14:31] Catarina**
And that was how Shad Juras met Rosa.
**[14:37] Catarina**
Rosa took him in and brought
him to Nebula Village.
**[14:43] Kiki**
Taking in a dhampir...
What a weird thing to do.
**[14:47] Catarina**
Well, you see, everyone who lived
in Nebula Village was a dhampir.
**[14:54] Catarina**
I'm sure Rosa just couldn't ignore
the plight of another dhampir.
**[15:01] Kiki**
Birds of a feather sticking together, huh?
**[15:04] Kiki**
Anyway, so that's how he came to live
in this Nebula Village place?
**[15:09] Catarina**
Right.
**[15:11] Catarina**
It's where Shad Juras lived and grew up.
**[15:16] (Flashback) Juras**
Hey, Carlo. Torsten.
**[15:19] (Flashback) Juras**
What's going on?
**[15:21] (Flashback) Carlo**
Rosa mentioned something
about us all having dinner together.
**[15:24] (Flashback) Carlo**
Are you joining us?
**[15:26] (Flashback) Juras**
Sure. I'd love to.
**[15:30] (Flashback) Unmarked AD**
Food really does taste better with company.
**[15:33] (Flashback) Unmarked AD**
Hey, you've got some on your face.
**[15:36] (Flashback) Unmarked AD**
So good!
**[15:40] (Flashback) Carlo**
Hey, Shad, you're spacing out.
Is something wrong?
**[15:44] (Flashback) Juras**
No. It's nothing.
**[15:47] Catarina**
Rosa had grown into a beautiful woman,
and Juras was attracted to her.
**[15:52] Catarina**
But Rosa never had eyes for him.
**[16:02] Catarina**
And then... that day came.
**[16:06] Catarina**
The TRUE OF VAMP appeared in Nebula Village.
**[16:13] Catarina**
What followed was naught
but ghastly destruction.
**[16:19] Catarina**
Because of TRUMP's initiative,
the villagers began killing each other.
**[16:46] (Flashback) Juras**
It's over now...
**[16:54] Catarina**
He might've been happier
if he had actually died.
**[17:05] Catarina**
Juras was found on the verge of death
**[17:09] Catarina**
and taken to a Blood Pact
hospital in a nearby town,
**[17:12] Catarina**
where he was revived.
**[17:15] Catarina**
Granted, he ran off before he healed up.
**[17:22] Catarina**
So, after losing his home and losing Rosa,
**[17:26] Catarina**
all he was left with...
**[17:30] Catarina**
were the burns covering his entire body.
**[17:33] Kiki**
Sounds like hell, surviving all that.
**[17:37] Kiki**
Not that I care. If he threatens the kids,
I'll still knock his block off.
**[17:45] Kiki**
Abraham! Keep an eye out, okay?
**[17:50] Catarina**
You're such a sweetheart, Kiki.
**[17:52] Kiki**
Yeah, I know!
**[17:56] Kiki**
Wait, so why's he working for Pendulum?
That doesn't make any sense.
**[18:05] Catarina**
Why, isn't it obvious? For revenge.
**[18:09] Catarina**
Vengeance on the TRUE OF VAMP,
who took Nebula Village and Rosa from him.
**[18:15] Catarina**
I have no idea how he managed to do it,
but he made contact with our boss.
**[18:22] (Flashback) Pizarro**
So, you're the one who's
looking for TRUMP, are you?
**[18:27] (Flashback) Juras**
Yeah. Your organization seems
like it might be able to help me.
**[18:33] (Flashback) Pizarro**
We're a collection of believers
in the primordial faith,
**[18:36] (Flashback) Pizarro**
worshipers of the TRUE OF VAMP.
**[18:40] (Flashback) Pizarro**
That's not compatible with you,
who's seeking vengeance on our god.
**[18:45] (Flashback) Pizarro**
That said... I also think that you might
be able to make my dream come true.
**[18:52] (Flashback) Juras**
Your dream?
**[18:55] (Flashback) Pizarro**
Yes. You see, I want to make TRUMP happy.
**[19:00] Kiki**
Make TRUMP happy, huh?
**[19:03] Catarina**
Why'd you join Pendulum, Kiki?
**[19:06] Catarina**
I've been curious. What's a nice girl like
you doing with a bunch of rogues like us?
**[19:15] Kiki**
I...
**[19:17] Kiki**
I just want to stay in my cocoon phase.
**[19:21] Kiki**
And I need these for that.
**[19:24] Kiki**
Which is why I'm here. To stay
in my cocoon phase... forever.
**[19:30] Catarina**
I hope you can find happiness too, Kiki.
**[19:34] Kiki**
That's not possible for me.
**[19:47] Kiki**
And if it was somehow...
it'd been in the far, distant future.
**[19:52] Kiki**
Somewhere tons of marigolds are blooming.
**[19:58] Catarina**
Marigolds symbolize despair.
**[20:10] Juras**
I'm running out of time.
**[20:12] Juras**
Need to get this done...
**[20:15] Keith**
Hey, don't go croaking yet.
**[20:20] Keith**
You've got a job that's not finished.
**[20:27] Juras**
I know.
**[20:35] Dino**
Should we really be taking
our time like this?
**[20:38] Dino**
The children could be in ever-increasing
danger as we sit around.
**[20:44] Henrique**
For now, hurrying won't help.
**[20:47] Gerhard**
Given our lack of leads, we simply
have to take things one step at a time.
**[20:52] Dali**
Right. For the time being, let us have faith
in the proud Lord Johannes Vlad.
**[21:04] Henrique**
If I'd known we'd be walking so far,
I'd have dressed lighter...
**[21:11] Dali**
There it is.
**[21:16] Dali**
Hello, young man. We're looking for someone.
**[21:24] Sekishu**
Well now, we certainly don't get
visitors out here very often.
**[21:28] Sekishu**
How can I help you?
**[21:31] Dali**
You're the hunter who attended
to the loss of Nebula Village, correct?
**[21:37] Sekishu**
Yes. My name is Sekishu.
**[21:40] Dali**
I take it this boy is the last of
Nebula Village's survivors, then?
