**[00:15] Rudo**
*I don't hear anything anymore.*
**[00:40] Gris**
We can't use our chokers down here.
**[00:42] Gris**
Get topside and call for backup.
**[00:46] Gris**
I'll check on Zanka.
**[00:53] Gris**
Thank goodness.
**[00:54] Gris**
Looks like he just finished.
**[00:56] Gris**
Zanka, were you injured?
**[00:58] Gris**
How'd you leave the Raiders?
**[01:15] Jabber**
White hair... darker at the ends.
**[01:19] Jabber**
Sour expression... circles under the eyes.
**[01:21] Gris**
Who are you?
**[01:28] Jabber**
So it's you, is it?
**[01:30] Jabber**
The Sphereite Giver...
**[01:33] Gris**
He's...
**[01:34] Gris**
a Raider?!
**[01:42] Gris**
He blocked the exit!
**[01:48] Follo**
Damn it.
**[01:50] Follo**
There are more of those thieves here...
**[01:53] Gris**
He's a member of the Cleaners.
**[01:56] Gris**
Going after him will make you
an enemy of all of us!
**[01:59] Jabber**
I was late, okay?
**[02:02] Jabber**
I got a bad sense of defec—uh, direction.
**[02:06] Jabber**
I got all turned around, and by the time
I got here the other guys were down.
**[02:11] Jabber**
Sorry. Didn't mean to give you so much time.
**[02:20] Gris**
Hey. Where's Zanka?
**[02:22] Gris**
There was another Cleaner
the way you came from.
**[02:25] Gris**
What's he—
**[02:25] Jabber**
There's someone who really
wants to talk to you.
**[02:31] Jabber**
How's about you come with me,
my little Sphereite friend?
**[02:38] Jabber**
You don't need that. No trash beasts here.
**[02:43] Rudo**
What did you do to the Cleaner with the staff?!
**[02:46] Jabber**
Oh, the guy with the bad attitude?
**[02:50] Jabber**
No worries.
**[02:52] Jabber**
I try to go gentle when an opponent is strong.
**[02:56] Jabber**
I just knocked him out. He's not dead.
**[03:00] Jabber**
Although...
**[03:03] Jabber**
I don't think he's *enjoying*
my venom, exactly...
**[03:11] Jabber**
Just come along quietly.
It won't hurt a bit.
**[03:17] Jabber**
What's the call?
**[03:34] Jabber**
You've got potential.
**[03:38] Jabber**
You, I don't need.
**[03:44] Gris**
I'll protect my team at all costs!
**[03:47] Gris**
No matter who I have to fight,
I'll protect their...
**[03:50] Gris**
their worth!
**[03:53] Jabber**
Oh, yeah.
**[03:56] Jabber**
I heard the Cleaners kept weaklings
called "supporters" in their ranks.
**[04:02] Jabber**
What can a weakling protect?
**[04:08] Rudo**
Hey... Gris...
**[04:11] Rudo**
You can't fight him unarmed.
**[04:14] Rudo**
Just fall back, okay?
**[04:15] Rudo**
You don't need to protect me!
**[04:19] Rudo**
I can handle him myself.
**[04:21] Rudo**
Come on, out of the way!
**[04:24] Jabber**
Hey, Sphereite, man...
**[04:27] Jabber**
Promise that you won't get upset, but...
**[04:31] Jabber**
I think he's already dead.
**[04:39] Jabber**
But hey, don't worry.
**[04:43] Jabber**
Weaklings are completely worthless!

**[07:14] (Flashback) Regto**
Rudo?
**[07:16] (Flashback) Regto**
Hey.
**[07:17] (Flashback) Regto**
What the hell are you doing?!
**[07:19] (Flashback) Regto**
Stop it, Rudo!
**[07:25] (Flashback) Regto**
What in the world?
**[07:26] (Flashback) Regto**
Why are you bashing your head into the wall?
**[07:30] (Flashback) Rudo**
You told me... not to hurt other people.
**[07:38] (Flashback) Regto**
And you took that to mean
you should hurt yourself?
**[07:41] (Flashback) Regto**
Why in the world...
**[07:45] (Flashback) Regto**
Rudo, I thought you'd settled down a bit
since the pain in your hands dulled some.
**[07:52] (Flashback) Regto**
You're avoiding people, too.
**[07:55] (Flashback) Regto**
So what else is there?
What led you to do this?
**[08:03] (Flashback) Rudo**
Nothing.
**[08:06] (Flashback) Rudo**
There's nothing else there.
**[08:10] (Flashback) Rudo**
Nothing at all... but...
**[08:14] (Flashback) Rudo**
The only thing I've had... all the time...
**[08:21] (Flashback) Rudo**
is this angry feeling.
**[08:24] (Flashback) Rudo**
If you ask me what I'm angry about, though,
**[08:29] (Flashback) Rudo**
I can't explain.
**[08:33] (Flashback) Regto**
I see.
**[08:35] (Flashback) Regto**
You think your parents threw you out,
**[08:40] (Flashback) Regto**
and it's convinced you that you're worthless.
**[08:45] (Flashback) Regto**
Must be such a miserable feeling
that it turns into anger.
**[08:50] (Flashback) Regto**
And you don't know how
to work through that yet.
**[08:56] Rudo**
*What does it mean to be... worthless?*
**[09:01] (Flashback) Regto**
Okay, once I've got you
patched up, let's head outside.
**[09:06] (Flashback) Regto**
One of the reasons you feel empty
is probably because
**[09:09] (Flashback) Regto**
you haven't found things
you like and want to do.
**[09:13] (Flashback) Regto**
Today, let's look around,
experience all kinds of things,
**[09:17] (Flashback) Regto**
and little by little,
find the things that you like.
**[09:21] (Flashback) Regto**
As we do that, little by little,
this empty room of yours
**[09:25] (Flashback) Regto**
will come to be full of things you like!
**[09:29] (Flashback) Regto**
Just warn me when it's time
to bring in a *girl* you like, okay?
**[09:33] (Flashback) Regto**
That's a promise.
**[10:10] (Flashback) Regto**
Well, you showed a little interest
in a few things, at least...
**[10:15] (Flashback) Regto**
but nothing hit the bull's-eye, huh?
**[10:18] (Flashback) Regto**
Well, it's just day one.
There's plenty more to try.
**[10:27] (Flashback) Rudo**
Regto. What's that?
**[10:30] (Flashback) Regto**
Oh, looks like an upstanding citizen
throwing out his trash.
**[10:40] (Flashback) Regto**
Rudo?
**[10:44] (Flashback) Regto**
Rudo! What's come over you?
**[11:13] (Flashback) Regto**
What's that making you feel?
**[11:17] (Flashback) Rudo**
It's just a little bit broken...
**[11:21] (Flashback) Rudo**
You shouldn't throw it out!
**[11:24] (Flashback) Rudo**
It's got a lot of life left!
This isn't right!
**[11:29] (Flashback) Rudo**
I want to fix it...
**[11:31] (Flashback) Rudo**
I want to fix it!
**[11:34] (Flashback) Regto**
This is more than just projection.
**[11:39] (Flashback) Regto**
I see. You can perceive the worth
in things others throw away.
**[12:01] Gris**
I see.
**[12:03] Gris**
That's why he couldn't use
his vital instrument then.
**[12:10] Gris**
We got it all wrong, didn't we?
**[12:13] Gris**
Rudo's power isn't to turn the objects
he touches into vital instruments...
**[12:31] Gris**
It's to bring out their full
and uninhibited worth!
**[12:46] Jabber**
S...
**[12:47] Jabber**
Sweet!
**[12:54] Jabber**
Is that your vital instrument?
**[12:58] Jabber**
What can it do? What powers does it have?
**[13:01] Jabber**
I couldn't even start to guess!
**[13:04] Follo**
Gris. Hang in there!
**[13:15] Rudo**
Gris. You're the reason I remembered.
**[13:19] Rudo**
My core... the thing
I've always wanted to do...
**[13:24] Rudo**
If you hadn't brought that up,
I'd probably still be lashing out blindly.
**[13:29] Rudo**
I wouldn't produce anything real.
**[13:32] Rudo**
But it's different now.
**[13:35] Rudo**
I'm gonna disprove everything you just said,
**[13:38] Rudo**
and affirm everything you just took a shit on!
**[13:43] Rudo**
And then I'm gonna kick your ass!
**[13:46] Follo**
Rudo...
**[13:48] Jabber**
Wow, you sound pissed!
**[13:50] Jabber**
I like that!
**[13:52] Jabber**
Nothing I love more than
hard fighters and strong Givers!
**[14:00] Jabber**
The name's Jabber.
**[14:02] Jabber**
Jabber Wonger.
**[14:04] Jabber**
I think I'd like to have a little fun
before I take you back.
**[14:09] Jabber**
What's your name?
**[14:11] Rudo**
It's Rudo, shithead.
**[14:15] Jabber**
Okay...
**[14:18] Jabber**
Let's tear each other to pieces...
**[14:20] Jabber**
Rudo, my friend!
**[14:26] Follo**
The bleeding won't stop!
**[14:28] Follo**
Damn it. We need to get you help!
**[14:30] Gris**
I'll be fine.
**[14:34] Follo**
Gris!
**[14:36] Gris**
*Rudo.*
**[14:38] Gris**
* The reason you couldn't use your instrument*
* properly at our last job was because*
**[14:43] Gris**
* you had a lot of emotions—desperation,*
* anger—clouding your main purpose.*
**[14:50] Gris**
*But I don't think we have to worry now.*
**[14:56] Jabber**
Oh?
**[14:57] Jabber**
I thought you were down for a fight,
but you're not coming at me.
**[15:02] Jabber**
You even want to do this?
**[15:04] Rudo**
If you want some, come get some. Shithead.
**[15:09] Jabber**
C'mon, I told you my name before!
**[15:12] Jabber**
Call me that!
**[15:13] Jabber**
One, two...
**[15:15] Jabber**
"Jabber, my friend"!
**[15:24] Jabber**
Aw, why'd you dodge?
**[15:27] Jabber**
That's no fun at all.
**[15:29] Jabber**
Let's have some back-and-forth!
**[15:31] Jabber**
Okay?
**[15:44] Jabber**
What's this all about?
**[15:46] Jabber**
My attacks can't hit you?
**[15:50] Rudo**
Gris said he prayed to this talisman of his
**[15:52] Rudo**
for everyone to make it back safely.
**[15:57] Rudo**
"Come back safely" means uninjured, right?
**[16:01] Rudo**
To remain uninjured, you want
the best defense possible, right?
**[16:06] Rudo**
This is how I imagine that:
**[16:08] Rudo**
"Make sure the enemy's attacks can't hit."
**[16:13] Jabber**
Oh, I get it. It's a power that
increases your ability to dodge.
**[16:18] Jabber**
Sounds handy.
**[16:20] Jabber**
But though my attacks
might not be hitting you...
**[16:25] Jabber**
Your attacks can't hit me, either.
**[16:29] Rudo**
You haven't realized?
**[16:33] Rudo**
I've been evading your attacks
all this time without moving a step.
**[16:40] Rudo**
I'm not the one who's been moving.
**[16:42] Rudo**
You are.
**[16:44] Jabber**
The hell you say...
**[16:47] Rudo**
Which means I know
where you're going to end up.
**[17:00] Rudo**
I can't use this talisman to attack,
**[17:04] Rudo**
because it's Gris's prayer embodied.
**[17:07] Rudo**
So I'll use his preferred weapon, fists,
**[17:12] Rudo**
to punch your lights out!
**[17:25] Jabber**
You made *me* move?
**[17:27] Jabber**
You summon that big, scary thing,
use its power to direct my movements,
**[17:31] Jabber**
then attack with your fists?
**[17:33] Jabber**
That's so roundabout!
**[17:36] Rudo**
You said you wanted to have some fun
before you brought me in.
**[17:42] Rudo**
I'll play your game until you're
in a heap on the floor, shithead.
**[17:46] Jabber**
Hey, can you stop ending
every line with "shithead"?
**[17:51] Jabber**
I get it.
**[17:53] Jabber**
So the game's rigged against me, huh?
**[17:56] Jabber**
And you don't feel any guilt
about a guy getting beat to hell?
**[18:00] Rudo**
Not when it's you.
**[18:02] Jabber**
So glad to hear it!
**[18:31] Jabber**
Hey, good eye there!
**[19:32] Rudo**
You...
**[19:35] Rudo**
piece of shit!
**[19:56] Rudo**
Had enough yet?
**[19:57] Rudo**
Why don't you just stay down?
**[20:04] Jabber**
Been a while since I took
a beating that *good*...
**[20:09] Jabber**
And I bet you enjoyed dishing it out, too!
**[20:15] Jabber**
It's important that we both get a taste.
**[20:20] Jabber**
But I noticed a thing...
**[20:24] Jabber**
That vital instrument of yours...
**[20:26] Jabber**
It detects hostile intent directed at you,
and moves the attack out of the way, right?
**[20:34] Jabber**
When I sent that rubble at you
as a smokescreen, I noticed...
**[20:41] Jabber**
It's not triggered by things that don't
have hostile intent—any will of their own.
**[20:48] Rudo**
So what?
**[20:50] Jabber**
My vital instrument, Mankira...
**[20:54] Jabber**
The right claws contain a powerful neurotoxin.
**[21:06] Rudo**
What's he doing?
**[21:13] Jabber**
Man, every time I do this,
it's something else!
**[21:16] Jabber**
Man, that hurts! I can't think straight!
**[21:24] Jabber**
Okay!
**[21:25] Jabber**
Okay now, Rudo...
**[21:27] Jabber**
If I lose conscious control
and just rail around mindlessly,
**[21:33] Jabber**
will your instrument
perceive any "hostile intent"?
**[21:40] Jabber**
Can't wait... to find out.
