**[00:01] ---**
You're here to look for that clock part, too?!
**[00:05] ---**
I believe this is our first time meeting. Shall I introduce myself?
**[00:09] ---**
I'm Samuel.
**[00:11] ---**
You're that Exceed Natsu and the others were talking about!
**[00:13] ---**
That's right. I'm usually referred to as "the brains of Legion".
**[01:51] ---**
This is the clock part?
**[01:53] ---**
It's bigger than I thought it'd be...
**[01:57] ---**
If we don't find some way to get it out of here...
**[02:00] ---**
Hey!
**[02:01] ---**
Still got fight left in you?!
**[02:02] ---**
No. I've lost completely.
**[02:05] ---**
I manfully acknowledge my defeat.
**[02:07] ---**
So now will you tell us about Legion's goal?
**[02:12] ---**
Yeah! Like what that clock is and the reason you're collecting the parts...
**[02:17] ---**
We'd appreciate an explanation.
**[02:20] ---**
Alright, already!
**[02:23] ---**
At this point, I might as well give in and tell you everything!
**[02:28] ---**
Alright, I'll fill you in on who I am and what my aim is.
**[02:32] ---**
Let's begin!
**[02:34] ---**
Why with a picture-story?
**[02:39] ---**
Something Beyond Reckoning!
**[02:43] ---**
I, Dan Straight, was born in a town called Cedar.
**[02:48] ---**
They had knights there that protected the town and the church.
**[02:52] ---**
People depended on them.
**[02:54] ---**
The people in my family were knights for generation after generation.
**[02:59] ---**
As the successor in my family, I was raised with tender care and affection,
**[03:03] ---**
and had a happy childhood.
**[03:07] ---**
However, those peaceful days didn't last long.
**[03:11] ---**
At one point, a civil war flared up that split the town in half.
**[03:17] ---**
You have a surprisingly hard past...
**[03:20] ---**
Then your family became embroiled in the battle too and suffered...
**[03:25] ---**
No.
**[03:26] ---**
The battle was over after half a day and none of my kin were harmed.
**[03:30] ---**
Everybody in town quickly patched things up, too.
**[03:33] ---**
That was fast!
**[03:34] ---**
Wasn't it more of just a fight than "civil war"?
**[03:37] ---**
But now I'm getting to the main point!
**[03:40] ---**
At the time, there was a beautiful girl who went to my school
**[03:44] ---**
and I fell in love with her, my first love.
**[03:47] ---**
However, after the battle was over, that girl was missing!
**[03:52] ---**
Missing? Then she was caught up in the battle...
**[03:56] ---**
Did she lose her life that day...?
**[03:59] ---**
That girl bore a slight resemblance to Lu-nyan.
**[04:04] ---**
It's so sad!
**[04:06] ---**
So that's why you fell in love with Lucy at first sight, huh?
**[04:09] ---**
You can never understand a person's situation until you hear about it, you know?
**[04:13] ---**
So what happened to the girl?
**[04:18] ---**
The next day... I found her and she was fine!
**[04:21] ---**
What's that?!
**[04:23] ---**
I would whisper of love to her and ask her hand in marriage nearly every day,
**[04:27] ---**
but it seems she was frightened by how happy that made her.
**[04:31] ---**
I'm sure she thought, "I'm not worthy of Dan-san's love."
**[04:36] ---**
I was charmed by that modesty, too.
**[04:39] ---**
The pictures don't really seem to match the story...
**[04:43] ---**
She obviously didn't like him.
**[04:46] ---**
Ultimately, she refused marriage, and I shed tears for three days and nights.
**[04:51] ---**
Then, to assuage my sorrow, I embarked on a sentimental journey.
**[04:56] ---**
During my wanderings, I happened across various women.
**[05:02] ---**
They're all different types, huh?
**[05:04] ---**
You weren't chasing the image of the first girl you fell in love with?
**[05:09] ---**
No, that wasn't it at all!
**[05:11] ---**
To be honest, I'd be happy with any woman in the vicinity who caught my eye.
**[05:15] ---**
That offends me for some reason...
**[05:18] ---**
And yet, no matter who she was, there was a compelling reason
**[05:22] ---**
why we couldn't be together.
**[05:24] ---**
Love and peace aren't permitted.
**[05:27] ---**
That's the fate of a knight who lives to fight.
**[05:30] ---**
Again, the story and pictures don't match up.
**[05:33] ---**
I bet they all turned him down.
**[05:35] ---**
That makes me think, who drew these pictures?
**[05:40] ---**
Hughes and Sugar Boy drew them based on my diary and photos.
**[05:46] ---**
They relied on guesswork to fill in the blanks, so the truth is mixed in with something else.
**[05:50] ---**
I'm positive the drawings are a better representative of what really happened.
**[05:54] ---**
And somewhere along the line, I became a Legionnaire.
**[05:57] ---**
Right now, I'm following Byro-sama's instructions to gather the parts of the clock.
**[06:03] ---**
The end! I explained who I am and what I'm after!
**[06:07] ---**
And they all lived happily ever after!
**[06:08] ---**
Um... What we want to know
**[06:11] ---**
is what Legion is and what *Legion* is after!
**[06:15] ---**
I can't talk about Legion's secrets!
**[06:18] ---**
If I did that, Byro-sama would punish me!
**[06:21] ---**
Then what was that story of yours?!
**[06:24] ---**
And on top of that, it turned out he has a humdrum past...
**[06:26] ---**
Of course, I was talking about myself so you would get to know me better!
**[06:31] ---**
Now let's get married, Lu-nyan!
**[06:34] ---**
Lu-nyan!
**[06:36] ---**
Yeesh. I've *so* had enough of him...
**[06:39] ---**
What should we do, Natsu-nii? There's no point in hanging out with the likes of him.
**[06:42] ---**
Lu-nyan!
**[06:43] ---**
Get away from me!
**[06:44] ---**
But we can't leave yet.
**[06:44] ---**
Let's get married!
**[06:45] ---**
Never!
**[06:46] ---**
Lu-nyan!
**[06:47] ---**
We promised to rendezvous with the other members of the guild here.
**[06:48] ---**
Lu-nyan, come on!
**[06:51] ---**
Oh, well. Guess there's nothin' to do but wait.
**[06:53] ---**
Don't just wait there, help me!
**[06:57] ---**
Huh? What happened to the other Legionnaire?
**[07:03] ---**
You mean Coco! Maybe she got hurt again somewhere...
**[07:07] ---**
More likely she escaped.
**[07:09] ---**
There's no need to worry about her. She's the enemy.
**[07:12] ---**
But I think that girl is kind and sincere at heart.
**[07:16] ---**
That's the same as me!
**[07:18] ---**
Stay away from me!
**[07:21] ---**
Wait for me!
**[07:21] ---**
If possible, I don't want to hurt her...
**[07:22] ---**
Get away!
**[07:23] ---**
Let's get married!
**[07:25] ---**
What are you saying, Coco?!
**[07:27] ---**
You're a Legionnaire, so you've got to carry out your mission!
**[07:35] ---**
If you wanna fight, just bring it on, Sammy!
**[07:39] ---**
Don't take it upon yourself to abbreviate my name. It's *Samuel*.
**[07:44] ---**
I'll take care of him.
**[07:46] ---**
The rest of you find that clock part as soon as possible.
**[07:49] ---**
Panther Lily...
**[07:51] ---**
You're an Exceed, older than me.
**[07:53] ---**
I suppose you're like a "big brother" figure to me.
**[07:57] ---**
You got no reason to call *me* your big brother!
**[08:00] ---**
Don't be so cold.
**[08:02] ---**
As fellow Exceeds, we should be friends, don't you think... Nii-san?
**[08:07] ---**
You tryin' to bug me, Sammy?!
**[08:10] ---**
Gajeel, Lily's right! Let's hurry and dig up that part!
**[08:14] ---**
Yeah, alright... but you better not lose!
**[08:18] ---**
I know about you. Even though you're an Exceed, you supported the humans
**[08:22] ---**
and went through hell because of it.
**[08:25] ---**
It was based on faith.
**[08:28] ---**
I don't think it was a mistake.
**[08:30] ---**
It seems you're not favored by nature. You should face things in a more clever manner.
**[08:35] ---**
Like me...
**[08:37] ---**
Unfortunately, I'm not made to reckon profits and losses, and then act accordingly.
**[08:42] ---**
I see. Nii-san, it appears that you and I...
**[08:45] ---**
...are just incompatible, huh, Sammy?!
**[08:48] ---**
Now you're talking...
**[08:52] ---**
Here I come!
**[08:53] ---**
Brains aren't my only strong point! But I'll show you what I mean!
**[09:10] ---**
What is this?!
**[09:12] ---**
Ruins with weird faces...
**[09:21] ---**
Tryin' to get away?! Stay here an' face me fair and square!
**[09:24] ---**
Clashing with each other directly is what slow-witted beings so.
**[09:29] ---**
The clever ones think of strategy, the process, and results before fighting!
**[09:41] ---**
We Legionnaires have performed rigorous ascetic exercises that you couldn't even imagine, Nii-san,
**[09:46] ---**
We're trained to deal with every type of situation!
**[09:50] ---**
What?!
**[09:53] ---**
This is all working out according to my calculations.
**[09:56] ---**
I impress myself!
**[09:58] ---**
According to my calculations, you've fallen somewhere around here.
**[10:04] ---**
I'm right here, Sammy!
**[10:08] ---**
You're a tenacious cat, Nii-san.
**[10:10] ---**
You won't be able to get me with the same trick twice!
**[10:13] ---**
Gajeel and them are probably about to dig up that part any second now! You have no chance!
**[10:18] ---**
I don't know about that. These ruins are mined with various traps.
**[10:22] ---**
Traps?!
**[10:24] ---**
What the hell?
**[10:26] ---**
I don't see anything that could be part of a clock.
**[10:30] ---**
Hey, somethin's written on here.
**[10:32] ---**
Um... It says, "I'm hungry."
**[10:37] ---**
Hey!
**[10:38] ---**
Here. Isn't this like the face of a clock?
**[10:43] ---**
Then... it's indicating snack time?
**[10:47] ---**
That's it!
**[10:50] ---**
So we just gotta move this, right?
**[11:00] ---**
I told you I've got more going for me than smarts alone!
**[11:03] ---**
I study various forms of martial arts like this, too!
**[11:08] ---**
Gajeel... Be careful!
**[11:36] ---**
We finally found it!
**[11:37] ---**
It's a clock face!
**[11:42] ---**
What are you doing?!
**[11:44] ---**
This thing's made of iron.
**[11:47] ---**
Isn't there any other way you could've figured that out?
**[11:50] ---**
Something's written on it.
**[11:52] ---**
Let's see if I can decipher it.
**[11:53] ---**
We don't got that kinda time!
**[11:57] ---**
W-Wait!
**[12:06] ---**
It says:
**[12:07] ---**
"Warning! The stone guardian won't abide by anyone trying to steal this!"
**[12:17] ---**
This is why I told you to wait! Careless blunderer!
**[12:21] ---**
You're sayin' this is my fault?!
**[12:22] ---**
Yes, it's your fault, Gajeel!
**[12:24] ---**
This is no time to argue!
**[12:26] ---**
It seems they've activated something.
**[12:30] ---**
But this is also according to my calculations.
**[12:32] ---**
You... That's why you separated me from Gajeel and the rest?!
**[12:37] ---**
After all, you're strong and can fly, Nii-san.
**[12:40] ---**
You're a troublesome opponent, so I had to keep you apart from them.
**[12:49] ---**
It looks like that red thing on its head is what controls the rock!
**[12:53] ---**
Then that must be its weak point!
**[12:55] ---**
Alright! Time for Shadow Gear to show off some teamwork!
**[13:00] ---**
First, we have to get it to stand still!
**[13:02] ---**
Solid Script!
**[13:04] ---**
Oil!
**[13:10] ---**
I'm up next!
**[13:12] ---**
Chain Plant!
**[13:23] ---**
And I'll finish it off! High Speed!
**[13:28] ---**
Did you see? That's Shadow Gear's teamwork!
**[13:31] ---**
Not too shabby.
**[13:37] ---**
Jet!
**[13:37] ---**
Leave it to me!
**[13:44] ---**
Are you okay?
**[13:46] ---**
The oil is all sticky!
**[13:48] ---**
Here it comes!
**[13:50] ---**
Let's try this one more time!
**[13:57] ---**
Jet!
**[13:58] ---**
Crap! I can't use High Speed like this!
**[14:03] ---**
Then I'll give it a try!
**[14:17] ---**
I should've gone on a diet...
**[14:22] ---**
It looks like I've got to do it...
**[14:24] ---**
Get outta the way!
**[14:26] ---**
You know, you shouldn't use that tone...
**[14:39] ---**
There you go, Nii-san!
**[14:41] ---**
Are you an Exceed that was sent to Earthland too?
**[14:45] ---**
That's right. Just like your friends, Happy and Carla.
**[14:49] ---**
Then why are you an ally of Legion?
**[14:53] ---**
Don't you think you should talk to Happy and Carla, both of whom are in the same circumstances?!
**[14:57] ---**
Right after I was born, I was found and raised by Zentopia.
**[15:02] ---**
Byro-sama treated me well, too!
**[15:05] ---**
More important to me than Exceeds or Edolas
**[15:08] ---**
is repaying my obligation to Legion!
**[15:18] ---**
Almost there!
**[15:22] ---**
Gajeel!
**[15:28] ---**
Gotta find a way to reach that head...
**[15:34] ---**
Gajeel!
**[15:35] ---**
This is all working out according to my calculations! I'm going to defeat you, Nii-san!
**[15:39] ---**
And that thing is going to dispose of your friends!
**[15:43] ---**
After that, the plan is for me to leisurely collect that part.
**[15:47] ---**
Crap! My strength fails me when I got an empty stomach!
**[15:52] ---**
That's right! If I eat this...
**[15:54] ---**
What are you talking about?! Of course you can't eat that!
**[15:57] ---**
Don't be so serious! I was kiddin'!
**[15:59] ---**
That doesn't sound like a joke, not when you're involved!
**[16:03] ---**
Run! That thing's trying to take the clock face back!
**[16:08] ---**
If that's the case...
**[16:11] ---**
...you take it!
**[16:13] ---**
What are you gonna do?!
**[16:21] ---**
Go, Gajeel!
**[16:22] ---**
What?!
**[16:23] ---**
Secret Dragon Slayer Art!
**[16:27] ---**
Karma Demon: Iron God Sword!
**[16:36] ---**
I took care of this one! Now hurry up and finish him!
**[16:40] ---**
I can't believe it... It's impossible!
**[16:43] ---**
How can there be someone who doesn't match my calculations?!
**[16:47] ---**
I don't know what to do when things don't go according to plans!
**[16:51] ---**
Does not compute! Does not compute!
**[16:55] ---**
Battle is a living thing. No matter what happens, you have to respond and cope with it.
**[17:01] ---**
It seems you still have a lack of experience, Sammy.
**[17:05] ---**
Don't call me that!
**[17:08] ---**
You're wide open!
**[17:22] ---**
You're not a bad fighter. Try me again sometime.
**[17:26] ---**
I'll fight whenever you want.
**[17:28] ---**
Certainly, I lost.
**[17:31] ---**
Now I know that there are some people in the world whose actions I can't calculate.
**[17:35] ---**
You realized you're inexperienced.
**[17:37] ---**
I'm saying I didn't calculate enough before the battle, Nii-san!
**[17:42] ---**
I lost today, but next time, I'll do more detailed calculations
**[17:46] ---**
and then defeat you and your friends, you musclebound cat!
**[17:50] ---**
That's right! I have to make note of all the data from today's battle!
**[17:54] ---**
Who you callin' musclebound?!
**[18:01] ---**
There are all types of Exceeds, huh?
**[18:04] ---**
He called you "Nii-san"!
**[18:07] ---**
I don't remember becoming his big brother!
**[18:30] ---**
Look, Nee-chan! The lake...
**[18:32] ---**
Lisanna must have found something.
**[18:43] ---**
Good work, Lisanna.
**[18:45] ---**
I haven't been seen much lately, so I thought I'd appeal to the people, you know?
**[18:51] ---**
What does that mean?
**[18:53] ---**
Well, let's collect this piece and take it back to the guild.
**[19:00] ---**
Where did you throw that?!
**[19:02] ---**
Huh?
**[19:05] ---**
I appreciate your efforts. Thanks to this, I can just take the part without any trouble.
**[19:11] ---**
You're...
**[19:12] ---**
...Mary Hughes from Legion!
**[19:15] ---**
You were following us, weren't you?!
**[19:17] ---**
That's right.
**[19:18] ---**
What could be easier than letting you find the part and then snatching it?
**[19:23] ---**
I'm so smart!
**[19:25] ---**
Even though it was Samuel's idea...
**[19:28] ---**
You again?! Give the part back!
**[19:34] ---**
Crap!
**[19:35] ---**
No matter what you do, the result will be the same.
**[19:38] ---**
As long as I have this tact, you're the puppets of Mary Hughes.
**[19:46] ---**
I'm surprised they don't get tired of that.
**[19:49] ---**
I'm startin' to get hungry.
**[19:52] ---**
You're such a pest!
**[19:54] ---**
It's so I can be bound to my soul mate!
**[19:57] ---**
What are you talking about, "soul mate"?! Before, you said any girl would do!
**[20:01] ---**
This may be a silly question...
**[20:03] ---**
But if any girl will do, wouldn't Michelle, who's right over there?
**[20:09] ---**
Um...
**[20:10] ---**
She's a beauty, but I like girls who are spunkier.
**[20:17] ---**
True, Lucy is more of a tomboy, right?
**[20:20] ---**
You insulted me like it's nothing!
**[20:23] ---**
Shall I be punished, Princess?
**[20:25] ---**
Lu-nyan! Wait for me!
**[20:25] ---**
Virgo! What are you here for?!
**[20:28] ---**
Come on! Lu-nyan! Let's get married!
**[20:28] ---**
You looked like you were in trouble, so I thought maybe I could be of service...
**[20:32] ---**
"Princess"? Then she's the princess of something?!
**[20:37] ---**
I see! That's why she's so beautiful!
**[20:41] ---**
What shall I do, Princess?
**[20:45] ---**
Actually, there's nothing I really need you to do...
**[20:49] ---**
Are you a maid?
**[20:51] ---**
Then bring us some food or something, so I can have a good time with the one I love!
**[20:56] ---**
I don't have any food prepared, but I could do a fun dance...
**[21:01] ---**
That again?! Anyway, you don't have to listen to what Dan says!
**[21:06] ---**
That's a lovely dance! It reminds me of a traditional dance back in my hometown!
**[21:11] ---**
That's the first time anyone has ever complimented me on this dance.
**[21:16] ---**
They've got the same taste?!
**[21:17] ---**
Both of them are a little bit "off", right?
**[21:20] ---**
It seems that I've been of service, so I'm going to disappear. Call me anytime.
**[21:26] ---**
What did you come out for?!
**[21:30] ---**
Dear me. I came to see what the outcome was...
**[21:34] ---**
That voice... Byro-sama!
**[21:36] ---**
That stupid octopus!
**[21:41] ---**
It appears you've met unexpected difficulties, Dan, Coco.
**[21:46] ---**
My apologies, Byro-sama!
**[21:48] ---**
Dan Straight is embarrassed to admit this, but he's kind of lost sight of the objective.
**[21:53] ---**
Having said that, I happened to come across my soul mate on this holy ground...
**[21:59] ---**
Divine retribution?
**[22:01] ---**
Both of you leave and contemplate your lack of competence.
**[22:05] ---**
That's...
**[22:07] ---**
...Uncle Jude's...
**[22:09] ---**
Octopus Man! That clock hand is Lucy's!
**[22:13] ---**
If you don't give it back, I'm gonna beat the crap outta you!
**[22:15] ---**
Yeah, you heard him!
**[22:17] ---**
Fine. Come and get me.
**[23:56] ---**
What the hell is with these people? Goin' on about holy grounds and stuff...
**[24:01] ---**
