[02:03] ---
    Caw!
[02:04] ---
    Kana-chan, you'll be late!
[02:06] ---
    Caw!
[02:07] ---
    It's morning!
[02:08] ---
    Caw!
[02:09] ---
    Wake up!
[02:37] ---
    Oww...
[02:46] ---
    "Merida Island"
[02:51] ---
    Continuing on, take a look at this.
[02:53] ---
    This is from a certain operation
    which Sergeant Sagara took part in.
[02:57] ---
    It's an AS unit which we've
    fought with previously.
[02:59] ---
    Code name: Venom.
[03:03] ---
    What I want you to pay particular
    attention to is this...
[03:07] ---
    As it emits this light,
[03:09] ---
    some sort of power renders all attacks
    against it virtually useless.
[03:14] ---
    A device called the Lambda
    Driver is involved in this.
[03:18] ---
    It's probably almost the same as
[03:20] ---
    what's installed on board
    Sergeant Sagara's Arbalest.
[03:23] ---
    Lieutenant Commander!
[03:24] ---
    What is it, Sergeant Weber?
[03:26] ---
    What is the Lambda Driver?
[03:29] ---
    I will have the captain explain that for you.
[03:32] ---
    Captain?
[03:35] ---
    Because this is a classified matter,
[03:37] ---
    I have not given you a
    clear explanation before.
[03:41] ---
    However, I would like to do so now.
[03:43] ---
    The Lambda Driver is a device also known as
[03:45] ---
    a "Hidden-String Repulsion
    Field Generation System."
[03:50] ---
    So, in other words...
[03:52] ---
    In plain terms,
[03:53] ---
    it is a device which transforms the user's
    mental image directly into physical power.
[03:58] ---
    For example, it can deflect
    a bullet or destroy a target.
[04:01] ---
    What the heck is that?
[04:03] ---
    Do you think that I'm joking?
[04:07] ---
    Then I have a question!
[04:08] ---
    Yes, Sergeant Major Mao?
[04:10] ---
    If it's that versatile and powerful,
    how come Sousuke hardly ever uses it?
[04:14] ---
    I've never really seen Sousuke use it.
[04:19] ---
    In fact, that very thing
    is one of the main factors
[04:22] ---
    which causes the effectiveness
    of this device to be unstable.
[04:25] ---
    It reflects the user's will,
    exactly as I mentioned before,
[04:30] ---
    however, using its power
    requires tremendous focus.
[04:34] ---
    Focus?
[04:36] ---
    It is a kind of device which will
    only activate in extreme situations,
[04:40] ---
    such as when life is at stake.
[04:42] ---
    So if things don't get to that
    level, it ends in a misfire?
[04:46] ---
    Exactly.
[04:48] ---
    The enemies I fought before seemed
    to have complete control of it.
[04:54] ---
    How can they do something like that?
[04:56] ---
    I cannot say for certain,
[04:58] ---
    but they probably either
    had extreme training,
[05:00] ---
    or are using some kind of drug to
    artificially induce that kind of mental state.
[05:07] ---
    Then...
[05:08] ---
    Yes, Corporal Yang?
[05:10] ---
    Are there any other machines besides the
    Arbalest which have the Lambda Driver?
[05:14] ---
    We would like to further research and
    develop new technologies within Mithril as well,
[05:20] ---
    but the reality is, due to various
    circumstances, there are no plans for it.
[05:24] ---
    So, in other words, you're saying that
    only Sergeant Sagara can fight them?
[05:28] ---
    Not necessarily.
[05:30] ---
    However, if we do fight them
    without Lambda Drivers,
[05:34] ---
    we should expect a large
    number of casualties.
[05:40] ---
    No talking without permission.
[05:41] ---
    We are currently investigating methods
    of countering the Lambda Driver.
[05:45] ---
    Once we receive a report,
    you will be informed.
[05:47] ---
    That is all. Dismissed.
[05:51] ---
    Captain.
[05:52] ---
    Yes, what is it?
[05:54] ---
    We have received this report from
    Sergeant Sagara about Wraith.
[05:58] ---
    Again?
[06:00] ---
    Understood. I suppose I'll look over it.
[06:04] ---
    Bodyguard mission, huh?
[06:07] ---
    And now that we don't even know
    who is targeting Miss Kaname,

[06:10] ---
    we might not be prepared enough
[06:13] ---
    with only Mr. Sagara and Wraith
    protecting a Whispered like her...

[06:18] ---
    But there are only so
    many people we can spare.

[06:22] ---
    Still, that doesn't mean we can let the enemy
[06:24] ---
    have any more of the knowledge of Black
    Technology that the Whispered possess.

[06:29] ---
    Whispered...
[06:32] ---
    If only Miss Kaname and I
    couldn't hear that voice...

[06:37] ---
    I wonder if we could have lived
    our lives as normal girls...

[06:42] ---
    Good morning, Kana-chan!
[06:44] ---
    Oh, good morning.
[06:45] ---
    Hey, take a look at this!
[06:47] ---
    I found this fun website yesterday!
[06:50] ---
    Let me see.
[06:52] ---
    Huh?
[06:55] ---
    Huh?
[06:58] ---
    My test data...
[07:01] ---
    I worked three hard days on that...
[07:06] ---
    I wonder what happened?
[07:13] ---
    You say there's something on the roof?
[07:15] ---
    Oh, you're right!
[07:16] ---
    It's huge!
[07:18] ---
    What is it?
[07:20] ---
    Geh!
[07:23] ---
    Ah, Kana-chan!
[07:28] ---
    Oh, Chidori! Take a look at this radar.
[07:30] ---
    Now we have good air def...
[07:32] ---
    Turn it off, right now!
[07:34] ---
    What was that for? That hurt, you know.
[07:38] ---
    "Do Not Use" "Jindai High
    School Student Council"
[07:40] ---
    Honestly!
[07:41] ---
    He just never makes any progress!
[07:43] ---
    Now, now, Sagara realizes
    what he did was wrong...
[07:47] ---
    Sagara.
[07:48] ---
    What is it, Kazama?
[07:49] ---
    Sorry to bother you at a time like this,
[07:51] ---
    but could you take a look at this?
[07:53] ---
    "Totally Crush-Worthy High School Girls Forum:
     The 100 Day War of the Teacher on Night Watch"
[07:55] ---
    It's some forum.
[07:57] ---
    Those pictures have been up since last night.
[07:59] ---
    I don't know how they took them, but...
[08:01] ---
    Oh no. This is bad.
[08:03] ---
    It's like revealing her to the enemy.
[08:05] ---
    We should find the culprit
    fast and stop him...
[08:08] ---
    Hey! Sagara!
[08:10] ---
    What do you want?
[08:11] ---
    It... It's nothing. Don't worry about it.
[08:13] ---
    What's wrong, Kazama?
[08:15] ---
    I don't think you should tell the victim.
[08:17] ---
    I'm sure it would hurt her.
[08:18] ---
    Is that so?
[08:19] ---
    That's the normal reaction.
[08:21] ---
    So we have to somehow do it
    without her finding out that...
[08:22] ---
    What's going on?
[08:23] ---
    What have you two been
    whispering about over here?
[08:25] ---
    N-N-N-Nothing at all!
[08:27] ---
    Carry on enjoying your usual high
    school life to your heart's content!
[08:31] ---
    That was blatantly awkward...
[08:39] ---
    "Hong Kong"
[08:48] ---
    Big Sis, how is Sensei doing?
[08:51] ---
    He's stabilized a little.
[08:54] ---
    The medicine seems to have started working.
[08:56] ---
    Yes.
[09:00] ---
    Oh yeah...
[09:02] ---
    What is it?
[09:04] ---
    We've run out of bandages.
[09:07] ---
    We'll have to go buy some later.
[09:09] ---
    I will go.
[09:11] ---
    I see.
[09:12] ---
    In that case, I will wipe down Sensei's body.
[09:25] ---
    I wonder how much longer
    Sensei is going to live.
[09:32] ---
    But Sis...
[09:36] ---
    I'm happy.
[09:38] ---
    About what?
[09:40] ---
    That we could see Sensei again.
[09:45] ---
    I see.
[09:47] ---
    You're right.
[09:59] ---
    It's a job.
[10:04] ---
    I hate that man.
[10:07] ---
    Bear with it.
[10:10] ---
    Let's go.
[10:24] ---
    What is up with him?
[10:25] ---
    Miss Chidori.
[10:26] ---
    Here's the CD you said you
    wanted to check out before.
[10:31] ---
    What the heck are you doing, Sousuke?!
[10:34] ---
    Okay, no problem.
[10:35] ---
    There's a big problem!
[10:39] ---
    Oh, Chidori. About that
    report the other day...
[10:42] ---
    Don't struggle!
[10:47] ---
    No problem.
[10:47] ---
    No, there's a big problem!
[10:50] ---
    So, you're dead set on following me in there?
[10:53] ---
    Is that not possible?
[10:54] ---
    Of course not!
[10:56] ---
    Why the hell should I have to have you
    wait for me in front of the toilet stall?
[10:59] ---
    There's no problem with that, is there?
[11:00] ---
    There are plenty of problems with that!
[11:03] ---
    In that case,
[11:04] ---
    at least let me conduct a thorough
    inspection of the stall before and after you...
[11:10] ---
    You pervert!
[11:12] ---
    Kana-chan, calm down!
[11:12] ---
    Take this! And this! And
    this! And this! And this!
[11:15] ---
    Take this! And this!
[11:16] ---
    "Girls Locker Room"
[11:17] ---
    Sagara's acting a little
    strange today, isn't he?
[11:20] ---
    I can't stand it when he
    hangs all over me like that.
[11:23] ---
    But it's kind of similar, don't you think?
[11:25] ---
    What is?
[11:27] ---
    The way Sagara's been.
[11:29] ---
    It's like how he used to act when
    he first got here, isn't it?
[11:31] ---
    Really?
[11:32] ---
    Hey, what do you think you're doing?
[11:35] ---
    What's wrong?
[11:36] ---
    Don't give me that! What the
    heck are you doing in here?
[11:38] ---
    An investigation.
[11:39] ---
    Of what?
[11:40] ---
    Stop it right no...
[11:41] ---
    Stay still!
[11:45] ---
    So it's up there.
[11:47] ---
    Wait, what do you mean?
[11:49] ---
    Cut it out!
[11:52] ---
    Jeez! Don't break it!
[11:59] ---
    No! My computer!
[12:02] ---
    For crying out loud! Why does it
    always have to end up like this?!
[12:18] ---
    So that's the equipment
    they left behind, huh?
[12:23] ---
    Must be Mithril.
[12:25] ---
    No, not necessar-
[12:26] ---
    Head south.
[12:33] ---
    Those footprints are from M9 models.
[12:35] ---
    Most likely three of them.
[12:36] ---
    There is no solid proof of that.
[12:39] ---
    It looks like they paradropped in,
    then destroyed all hostile targets,
[12:41] ---
    and avoided the anti-air
    artillery as they pulled out.
[12:44] ---
    Perhaps they changed their rendezvous point?
[12:46] ---
    One of them separated from its troop.
[12:49] ---
    It headed for...
[12:51] ---
    Most likely the anti-air formation, I guess.
[12:54] ---
    We cannot confirm that from here.
[12:58] ---
    It deflected a direct hit from a tank.
[13:01] ---
    That would be impossible
    without a Lambda Driver.
[13:05] ---
    I would hesitate to draw that
    conclusion from this evidence alone.
[13:07] ---
    There's no doubt about
    it. It's that white AS.
[13:12] ---
    Color is easy to change.
[13:14] ---
    Now the white AS breaks through
    the defense and runs away!
[13:17] ---
    Look at him run!
[13:18] ---
    Oh no! Here comes enemy fire!
[13:21] ---
    So, what do you think, commentator Dazz?
[13:24] ---
    Huh?
[13:25] ---
    Oh my! He threw down his
    weapon! Is he out of ammo?
[13:27] ---
    And just as he reaches the bridge,
    there's a pincer attack waiting for him!
[13:30] ---
    He's in trouble now!
[13:31] ---
    Oh! Can you believe it? He turns
    toward the river and dives!
[13:38] ---
    Well, I suppose it went something like that.
[13:42] ---
    I guess I'll go meet the client now.
[13:45] ---
    Make sure you never let this happen again!
[13:48] ---
    Do I make myself clear?
[13:49] ---
    Understood!
[13:53] ---
    How did it go?
[13:56] ---
    Listen, Sousuke. What
    is wrong with you today?
[14:00] ---
    No matter how I look at it, you're
    acting a little too strange.
[14:02] ---
    No! It's nothing.
[14:04] ---
    It's all in your mind.
[14:11] ---
    Jeez, if you don't want
    to tell me, then fine.
[14:13] ---
    Miss Chidori!
[14:15] ---
    Well... Actually...
[14:21] ---
    Did you just say you're not going to pay?
[14:24] ---
    That's right!
[14:25] ---
    Your so-called "high-tech" weaponry
    wasn't even one bit useful!
[14:30] ---
    I don't owe you anything for it!
[14:34] ---
    Now get outta here.
[14:39] ---
    Didn't your mommy ever tell you?
[14:42] ---
    "If you ever meet a scary man,
[14:44] ---
    protect your wallet and
    your ass no matter what."
[14:48] ---
    What are you trying to say?
[14:50] ---
    Oh, nothing.
[14:52] ---
    It doesn't really mean anything.
[14:58] ---
    You bastard!
[15:01] ---
    Kill them.
[15:14] ---
    Ave Maria...
[15:26] ---
    What the hell is this?!
[15:28] ---
    Sneak photography, I think.
[15:30] ---
    I suggested to Sagara that we find the
    culprit before you realized what was going on,
[15:36] ---
    but I kinda just couldn't
    stand to watch anymore...
[15:39] ---
    Unforgivable!
[15:40] ---
    Whoever did this will receive God's
    wrath! God's wrath, I tell you!
[15:43] ---
    Actually, we haven't found the cul-
[15:45] ---
    You haven't found him?!
[15:46] ---
    No, but I do have a clue.
[15:48] ---
    Take a look at this.
[15:49] ---
    What is it?
[15:50] ---
    A device used for sneaking pictures.
[15:52] ---
    I found it in the locker room ceiling.
[15:54] ---
    So that "investigation" you were doing...
[15:56] ---
    was to find this.
[15:58] ---
    I've already pinpointed its frequency.
[16:00] ---
    So all we need to do is trace
    it, and we'll have the culprit.
[16:03] ---
    Sousuke, you're so smart!
[16:04] ---
    Let's get started.
[16:10] ---
    Got it.
[16:10] ---
    That was fast!
[16:11] ---
    Bearing 0-9-0. Distance, 5 meters.
[16:14] ---
    So you mean...
[16:15] ---
    It's the classroom next door.
[16:16] ---
    All right, charge!
[16:20] ---
    So you're the one.
[16:22] ---
    Drop your weapon!
[16:22] ---
    Get down on the ground with
    your arms and legs spr-
[16:24] ---
    Are you an idiot? Think about using
    some moderation once in a while!
[16:26] ---
    But this was the most effective
    method of charging into the other-
[16:29] ---
    But that doesn't mean you had to
    blow a hole in the school wall!
[16:32] ---
    The culprit got away...
[16:36] ---
    We're going after him!
[16:37] ---
    Ave Maria...
[16:54] ---
    What's this?
[16:57] ---
    They're all dead?
[16:59] ---
    How the hell are we supposed to
    collect the rest of the money now?
[17:02] ---
    But didn't you order us to...
[17:06] ---
    Don't give me that bullshit!
[17:08] ---
    Mommy always says not to blame
    other people, doesn't she?
[17:11] ---
    Hello?! Hello?! Can you hear me?!
[17:15] ---
    Oh dear... he's dead. Another person died!
[17:19] ---
    Oh, what is this world coming to?
[17:23] ---
    It's filled with cruel deaths!
[17:26] ---
    Oh, I'm sad. So very sad.
[17:30] ---
    How stupid.
[17:32] ---
    What?!
[17:35] ---
    Don't come any closer!
[17:37] ---
    Don't come any closer!
    Take a look at this first!
[17:42] ---
    No!
[17:45] ---
    If you come any closer,
[17:46] ---
    I'll distribute this embarrassing
    picture throughout the whole world!
[17:51] ---
    How evil and senseless!
[17:53] ---
    I don't think you're in a position
    to talk about senselessness, though.
[17:54] ---
    You got that? You got that? Now scram!
[17:57] ---
    Wow, he's the lowest kind of man, isn't he?
[18:00] ---
    Shut up!
[18:01] ---
    This is my revenge, got it?
[18:04] ---
    Revenge?
[18:05] ---
    That's right!
[18:06] ---
    I'll never forget how I lost to you
    in the Student Council elections!
[18:10] ---
    You were in the elections?
[18:12] ---
    Anyway!
[18:13] ---
    I'm going to spread this all over
    the world, and ruin your reputation!
[18:18] ---
    You shall know my hatred and agony!
[18:21] ---
    Seems more like plain undue resentment to me.
[18:23] ---
    Stop being so foolish. Calm down.
[18:27] ---
    I told you not to come any closer, didn't
    I? I'll press the button, I swear!
[18:30] ---
    Stop!
[18:32] ---
    Very well. I will shoot him down.
[18:33] ---
    Yeah! Do it!
[18:33] ---
    No, wait, don't!
[18:35] ---
    I'll push it! I swear I'll push it!
[18:39] ---
    Chidori.
[18:39] ---
    What?
[18:40] ---
    All we have to do is make sure he
    can't transmit that picture, correct?
[18:43] ---
    Yeah!
[18:44] ---
    Then that makes it simple!
[19:01] ---
    You're kidding...
[19:03] ---
    No!
[19:11] ---
    So, was it this mouth that said those things?
[19:17] ---
    Huh? Was it?
[19:21] ---
    You mustn't say such things.
[19:23] ---
    I'll give you a spanking!
[19:31] ---
    You're no fun.
[19:34] ---
    We're leaving. Start preparations.
[19:39] ---
    Oh yeah, I just remembered.
[19:43] ---
    I heard your Sensei got
    turned into fish food.
[19:46] ---
    My condolences.
[19:51] ---
    Schlafe mein prinzchen, schlafe ein...
[20:06] ---
    Hello?
[20:08] ---
    Hi. It's been a while.
[20:11] ---
    It's rare to get a call from you.
[20:14] ---
    What do you want?
[20:16] ---
    I heard that you two had
    picked up your Sensei.
[20:21] ---
    News reaches you quickly, doesn't it?
[20:23] ---
    Personally, I would like you two
    to keep a low profile, if possible.
[20:29] ---
    Is that a warning?
[20:32] ---
    Yes, I intend it to be one.
[20:35] ---
    Don't worry. We don't plan
    on causing any trouble.
[20:41] ---
    Can I trust you?
[20:43] ---
    Of course.
[20:46] ---
    Please forgive me! I'm sorry! Let me go!
[20:47] ---
    Then tell me the truth!
[20:49] ---
    What were your real intentions
    in following Chidori around?
[20:51] ---
    It's like I just told you!
[20:54] ---
    So you insist on feigning innocence?
[20:56] ---
    Then I'll ask your body!
[20:59] ---
    I'll start with a finger.
[21:02] ---
    Which one should it be?
[21:03] ---
    Stop!
[21:04] ---
    All right, all right, that's enough.
[21:07] ---
    Why are you stopping me?
[21:08] ---
    Isn't it obvious? He's just
    a normal high school kid.
[21:11] ---
    Oh yeah.
[21:13] ---
    There was someone peeping into
    my apartment this morning.
[21:15] ---
    Was that you, too?
[21:16] ---
    Bastard!
[21:16] ---
    I don't know anything about that!
[21:18] ---
    The only pictures I took were in school!
[21:21] ---
    Really?
[21:21] ---
    It's the truth, honest!
[21:23] ---
    You're a very good actor.
[21:25] ---
    But that won't fool...
[21:26] ---
    Stop!
[21:28] ---
    Wait!
[21:28] ---
    That's enough already.
[21:30] ---
    But I wasn't through questioning him...
[21:32] ---
    That was plenty.
[21:35] ---
    But...
[21:37] ---
    I wonder what in the world
    that was this morning.
[21:43] ---
    Wow, this radar is really powerful!
[21:46] ---
    Aww, now I have to buy another cell phone.
[22:10] ---
    Ugh, I gotta take a dump.

    "Next Episode"
[23:46] ---
    An enemy whose actions
    seem somehow suspicious.

[23:47] ---
    An isolated underground battlefield.
[23:49] ---
    And my lack of trust in the machine
    I should look upon as my own.

[23:52] ---
    But even still, it wasn't
    a difficult mission.

[23:56] ---
    Next time: "The Labyrinth and the Dragon."
[23:58] ---
    A deep, complex spider web
    entangles us further and further.
