[00:04] Demon
    P-Please! Spare me!
[00:07] Snow
    Do you know a red-haired demon?
[00:09] Demon
    W-With red hair? Never heard of—
[00:19] Snow
    Almost there...
[00:21] Snow
    I've almost found them.
SIGN    Night Two: "Encounter"
[01:56] Wisteria
    Ouch! Ow...
[01:59] Marbas
    Here. Take this cane, Wisteria.
[02:03] Wisteria
    Oh, thank you, Marbas.
[02:08] Wisteria
    It's kind of a surprise...
[02:10] Wisteria
    to find that you actually have a house.
[02:14] Marbas
    Long ago...
[02:15] Marbas
    A human gave it as part of a contract,
    along with a portion of his fortune.
[02:21] Marbas
    I must say, it's pretty run down.
[02:25] Marbas
    Now, Wisteria, if you could clean...
[02:29] Wisteria
    Uh, well...
[02:32] Wisteria
    I might be able to wipe things down?
[02:36] Marbas
    D-Don't tell me...
[02:39] Marbas
    I have to do it all myself, then?
[02:41] Wisteria
    I am so sorry!
[02:52] Wisteria
    The air seems a lot clearer now!
[02:55] Marbas
    I just did housework. Unbelievable...
[02:59] Wisteria
    You say that, but you seemed
    to be pretty engrossed...
[03:04] Marbas
    Did you say something?
[03:05] Wisteria
    No! Nothing at all.
[03:10] Wisteria
    Uh... um...
[03:12] Wisteria
    I haven't eaten anything
    since yesterday, so...
[03:15] Marbas
    Right. Humans need to eat, don't you?
[03:19] Marbas
    Which means...
[03:22] Marbas
    I have to go and get it, don't I?
[03:25] Wisteria
    I am so, so sorry!
[03:32] Marbas
    You'll need to be presentable
    to go out into town.
[03:35] Marbas
    Yes, this one's not bad.
[03:38] Wisteria
    I'm sorry, but this is more frilly
    than I'm used to...
[03:41] Marbas
    You don't like it? Then maybe...
[03:45] Wisteria
    This one seems very... puffy.
[03:50] Wisteria
    I think it might be too big for me?
[03:52] Marbas
    What? You say that, but...
[03:55] Marbas
    In that case, tell me
    what sizes to look for.
[03:58] Wisteria
    Never mind that!
    I'll do the shopping myself!
[04:03] Wisteria
    Despite what I said...
[04:06] Wisteria
    I don't know what's in front of me.
[04:09] Wisteria
    I should probably call a clerk...
[04:14] Diana
    Oh.
[04:16] Diana
    Is something wrong, miss?
[04:18] Wisteria
    Oh, I...
[04:21] Naberius
    Well, hell, little lady.
    You can't even see, can you?
[04:25] Diana
    Naberius, manners.
[04:26] Naberius
    Ow...
[04:27] Diana
    You need to show the fairer sex more respect.
[04:29] Diana
    Pardon him. My name is Diana.
[04:32] Diana
    My father is of the
    Blackbell family, and an earl.
[04:35] Diana
    I am Lady Diana Blackbell.
[04:37] Wisteria
    An earl?
[04:40] Wisteria
    Y-You're an aristocrat?!
[04:42] Wisteria
    Forgive me, I...
[04:44] Diana
    Come now, it's all right.
[04:46] Diana
    But I'm curious...
[04:48] Diana
    It must be dangerous for you,
    out here on your own.
[04:50] Diana
    You don't have a companion?
[04:54] Wisteria
    I did. But, well...
[04:57] Diana
    Well, I'm not clear on the details,
    but your situation seems complex.
[05:01] Diana
    He'll be coming back for you later, then?
[05:05] Wisteria
    Yes.
[05:06] Diana
    Then, until he does... why don't
    we pick out some clothes together?
[05:10] Wisteria
    I-Is that all right?!
[05:12] Diana
    Of course!
[05:13] Diana
    To be honest, I've never done this sort
    of thing with another girl my age.
[05:19] Diana
    I'd love to have you join me.
[05:23] Wisteria
    Of course! I'd be glad to!
[05:27] Naberius
    This is gonna take a while, isn't it?
[05:30] Diana
    What kind of guard dog are you,
    if you can't even wait?
[05:34] Naberius
    I'm not your bloody guard dog, damn it!
[05:37] Diana
    Very well, then, you can take off
    for around an hour.
[05:41] Naberius
    Figure I'll do just that.
[05:45] Naberius
    And little lady...
[05:47] Naberius
    You wouldn't happen
    to have a cat, would you?
[05:52] Naberius
    Nah. Couldn't be.
[06:02] Marbas
    I suppose I should go and get her.
[06:04] Marbas
    I must say, I truly don't understand humans.
[06:09] Marbas
    What is this sudden, offensive presence?
[06:12] Naberius
    Ugh, human women can be such a pain.
[06:16] Naberius
    They wear me right out.
[06:20] Marbas
    N-Naberius?!
[06:24] Naberius
    Well! Well, well.
[06:26] Naberius
    I haven't seen you in a dog's age...
[06:28] Naberius
    What the hell are you doing here, Marbas?
[06:32] Naberius
    I should be asking you that.
[06:35] Naberius
    Like me, he was one of the
    Thirteen Calamities of the Wasteland.
[06:40] Naberius
    Committer of Atrocities.
    The Watchdog of the Netherworld.
[06:45] Naberius
    The great demon, Naberius.
[06:49] Naberius
    This is perfect.
    Got something I wanted to ask you.
[06:53] Naberius
    Come with me for a sec.
[06:56] Diana
    Thanks to you, I was able to make some
    wonderful choices. I appreciate it.
[07:00] Wisteria
    Oh, I should be thanking you.
[07:03] Diana
    Oh, Naberius.
[07:06] Diana
    There's a gentleman
    with long red hair next to him...
[07:09] Wisteria
    Marbas? Is that you?
[07:13] Diana
    Don't tell me. Is he a friend of yours?
[07:15] Naberius
    Hell, no. You can't tell
    there's bad blood here?
[07:18] Diana
    Never mind that. What do
    you think of this red coat?
[07:22] Naberius
    Not a big fan of red.
[07:25] Naberius
    If you're done, let's head back.
[07:27] Diana
    Now, hold on!
[07:28] Wisteria
    Excuse me, Lady Diana?
[07:31] Wisteria
    Will I ever meet you again?
[07:33] Diana
    Of course!
[07:35] Diana
    If you ever need help, you can turn
    to the House of Blackbell.
[07:39] Wisteria
    I'd be glad to!
[07:41] Marbas
    You seem to have enjoyed yourself.
[07:44] Wisteria
    Yes.
[07:46] Marbas
    The girl chose some decent
    clothes for you, as well.
[07:49] Marbas
    You could easily pass for someone
    from the upper classes.
[07:54] Wisteria
    Uh... I was wondering...
[07:56] Wisteria
    Where in the world are we?
[07:58] Marbas
    A dining hall.
[08:00] Wisteria
    I'm pretty sure it's a lot fancier than that!
[08:04] Marbas
    This is a private room, incidentally.
[08:07] Marbas
    You needn't concern yourself
    with manners, here.
[08:10] Wisteria
    It's less manners I'm worried about
[08:11] Wisteria
    than whether or not
    I'll end up breaking dishes.
[08:15] Marbas
    I suppose you're right.
[08:18] Marbas
    Here.
[08:20] Marbas
    Open your mouth already, Wisteria.
[08:22] Wisteria
    Th-This is embarrassing!
[08:24] Marbas
    Would you get on with it?
    Or do you enjoy having me play servant?
[08:28] Wisteria
    R-Right!
[08:32] Wisteria
    Delicious!
[08:34] Wisteria
    What dish was that?!
[08:36] Marbas
    I believe it's the "seasonal vegetable soup."
[08:40] Wisteria
    Are you not going to eat, Marbas?
[08:42] Marbas
    Demons don't require food.
[08:45] Wisteria
    I see...
[08:46] Marbas
    Is there a problem?
[08:48] Wisteria
    N-No...
[08:51] Wisteria
    I grew up poor.
[08:53] Wisteria
    But when I was little,
[08:55] Wisteria
    the bread that I shared with
    my brother was what tasted best.
[09:00] Wisteria
    When I saw him always working so
    diligently for our survival...
[09:04] Wisteria
    It made me hold my head higher.
[09:07] Wisteria
    I aspired to be the kind of person
    who would make him proud, too.
[09:12] Wisteria
    So...
[09:13] Wisteria
    Even through all the pain, I was able to
    make it without breaking thanks to him.
[09:18] Wisteria
    That's why I think food is great
    for sharing things like fun and joy.
[09:25] Wisteria
    And it had been a while
    since I'd thought about it...
[09:28] Wisteria
    So, I thought it'd be nice
    to share a meal with you.
[09:44] Marbas
    I'm a bit amazed we finished it all.
[09:50] Marbas
    Wisteria?
[09:52] Wisteria
    I'm sorry. I'm just... so happy.
[09:56] Wisteria
    And relieved that, even though I'm blind,
[09:58] Wisteria
    nothing has changed about
    the time we spend together.
[10:03] Wisteria
    I didn't expect to have someone
    to enjoy meals with again.
[10:07] Wisteria
    Marbas, I'm so grate—
[10:09] Marbas
    Don't misunderstand our relationship.
[10:10] Marbas
    I took you into my care to distract myself
    from the eternity of boredom I must endure.
[10:15] Marbas
    It's no different than
    picking up a new hobby.
[10:21] Marbas
    That said...
[10:23] Marbas
    I take my hobbies very seriously.
[10:27] Marbas
    I tend to fixate, you see.
[10:29] Marbas
    And if I hadn't been interested,
[10:31] Marbas
    I wouldn't have agreed to a contract
    involving keeping you around until you die.
[10:36] Marbas
    A human's lifespan is no more than
    fifty years and change, right?
[10:40] Marbas
    My attention span isn't so short
    that I'd toss you out that quickly.
[10:46] Wisteria
    So do you mean...
[10:49] Wisteria
    You're telling me not to worry,
    because you won't abandon me, yes?
[10:54] Marbas
    Well, I suppose that
    interpretation isn't wrong.
[11:00] Wisteria
    Right!
[11:04] Marbas
    Now, then...
[11:06] Marbas
    Before we set out, we'll need supplies.
[11:10] Marbas
    And I have to wonder...
[11:12] (Flashback) Naberius
    Another one of the Thirteen
    Calamities of the Wasteland...
[11:16] (Flashback) Naberius
    Astaroth. She's been killed.
[11:20] Marbas
    If what he says is true,
    who could've done it?
[11:28] Snow
    Who is that guy?
[11:30] Snow
    Tall, with waist-length red hair...
[11:33] Snow
    Just like that rotten bastard described.
[11:36] Snow
    But more than that, my gut
    is telling me he's suspicious.
[11:40] Snow
    I'd better make sure.
[11:53] Snow
    Hey, mister...
[11:56] Snow
    Mind if I sit here?
[11:58] Marbas
    By all means.
[12:03] Marbas
    The Sword Cross...
[12:05] Marbas
    He's the same one from before.
[12:10] Marbas
    Your manners are as poor as I'd expect.
[12:14] Snow
    My name is Snow Langley.
[12:17] Snow
    Wisteria Langley is my sister.
[12:21] Snow
    Then it really was you...
[12:23] Snow
    I'm here to let you know
    that I'm taking my sister back.
[12:27] Marbas
    I see...
[12:28] Marbas
    I suppose if you live long enough,
    coincidences like this really will happen.
[12:34] Snow
    Why is Wis with you?
[12:37] Snow
    A demon wouldn't help someone
    without demanding something in return.
[12:42] Snow
    Hell, you couldn't if you wanted to.
[12:45] Snow
    What are you after?!
[12:46] Proprietor
    Here you are, sir.
[12:48] Proprietor
    Your coffee.
[12:50] Snow
    What? I didn't order any—
[12:52] Marbas
    What am I after? That's simple enough...
[12:56] Marbas
    To alleviate my boredom.
[13:04] Marbas
    Let's take this elsewhere.
[13:06] Marbas
    There's a forest on the eastern
    outskirts of town. Come alone.
[13:10] Marbas
    If you truly are Wisteria's brother,
    then it might be interesting.
[13:16] Marbas
    Hopefully you'll prove amusing enough
    to be worth the cost of that coffee.
[13:20] Marbas
    Until then...
[13:30] (Flashback) Wisteria
    Even through all the pain, I was able to
    make it without breaking thanks to him.
[13:35] (Flashback) Snow
    I'm here to let you know
    that I'm taking my sister back.
[13:42] Marbas
    What is this feeling?
[13:48] Wisteria
    Marbas? Welcome home.
[13:50] Marbas
    Wisteria...
[13:52] Marbas
    This is sudden, but we need to leave.
[13:54] Wisteria
    Right now? What about our belongings?
[13:59] Marbas
    I've actually called for help with those.
[14:02] Marbas
    I appreciate your assistance...
[14:04] Marbas
    Mister Langley.
[14:09] Snow
    Wis?!
[14:11] Wisteria
    What a coincidence.
[14:13] Wisteria
    Langley is my family name, too.
[14:16] Wisteria
    Well, I'll get the luggage
    ready for you right away.
[14:19] Wisteria
    There isn't really that much...
[14:19] ---
    "I'll kill her if you do anything."
[14:22] Snow
    Why?
[14:24] Snow
    Why can't she see?!
[14:32] Snow
    Are the two of you traveling?
[14:35] Wisteria
    Yes, that's right.
    We're going to go all over the world.
[14:40] Snow
    Well, that does sound like fun.
[14:43] Snow
    But as your brother, I'm not sure
    about you traveling with this shady creep.
[14:48] Snow
    If you want to travel...
[14:51] Snow
    Then we can go together, Wisteria!
[14:54] Wisteraia
    Brother?
[14:56] Snow
    It's all right. I won't miss!
[15:04] Marbas
    Sanctified silver bullets?
    I thought as much.
[15:08] Marbas
    How sad, though. Still lacking.
[15:12] Snow
    Bastard!
[15:14] Wisteria
    Marbas!
[15:15] Wisteria
    Thank goodness. You weren't hurt, then?
[15:16] Snow
    Wis! What are you doing with this demon?!
[15:19] Wisteria
    Brother...
[15:21] Wisteria
    It really is you, isn't it, Snow?
[15:24] Snow
    Wis... what is this?
[15:27] Snow
    I thought you'd be happier to be reunited!
[15:31] Wisteria
    I am. I'm really, really happy...
[15:36] Wisteria
    But not if you intend to hurt Marbas!
[15:41] Marbas
    Come now, Wisteria.
[15:43] Wisteria
    Marbas, I won't forgive you
    if you hurt my brother, either!
[15:47] Wisteria
    I love the both of you!
[15:49] Wisteria
    So... if you intend to fight any more,
    I'm going to be very cross!
[15:58] Snow
    Wis! The only explanation that makes sense
    here is if he's tricking you somehow.
[16:03] Snow
    He said you were just his way
    of fighting boredom!
[16:07] Snow
    But me... not me!
[16:10] Snow
    I'm your only family!
[16:12] Snow
    Come with me, Wisteria!
[16:16] Marbas
    Family, eh?
[16:17] Marbas
    I'm not clear how strong
    a relationship that might be,
[16:21] Marbas
    but she's made a pact with me.
[16:25] Marbas
    In exchange for her vision,
    I'm going to stay by her side.
[16:30] Snow
    This can't get worse.
[16:32] Snow
    The order has no mercy for demons
    or people who deal with them...
[16:36] Snow
    If the commanders find out,
    they'll be out for Wisteria's head, too.
[16:41] Snow
    Which is why you need to die right here!
[16:44] Snow
    This ridiculous deal is over!
[16:49] Marbas
    Suit yourself. You'll get no mercy from me!
[16:52] Snow
    That suits me fine!
[17:06] Marbas
    You can shoot all day,
[17:07] Marbas
    but it won't matter if you can't hit me.
[17:14] Wisteria
    Brother!
[17:19] Marbas
    He's fled...
[17:20] Marbas
    It seems family doesn't amount to much.
[17:27] Snow
    I've been in my share of rough spots.
[17:30] Snow
    If regular ammo won't cut it,
    then maybe this will.
[17:34] Snow
    A holy round that can kill
    any demon... the Heart Knocker.
[17:39] Snow
    If I can nail him with a sanctified bullet
    of this strength using my rifle...
[17:44] Snow
    But I've only got one shot at this.
[17:47] Snow
    I have to wait for my chance
    and then fire away!
[17:51] Snow
    Just try and find me!
[17:58] Marbas
    There you are!
[18:02] Snow
    What's wrong?
[18:04] Snow
    Is a great demon like yourself having
    trouble with a puny human like me?!
[18:09] Marbas
    Have it your way.
[18:12] Marbas
    No more restraint.
[18:14] Snow
    Oh, shit!
[18:15] Marbas
    Begone.
[18:31] Marbas
    Holy water?!
[18:32] Marbas
    He can't believe this will work on me...
[18:37] Wiseria
    Stop it, you two!
[18:38] Snow
    It's over!
[18:45] Snow
    Wis—
[18:55] Wisteria
    Marbas? Marbas!
[18:57] Snow
    Impossible...
[18:59] Snow
    A demon, protecting its contractor?
[19:01] Wisteria
    Marbas! Please say something! Marbas!
[19:04] Marbas
    I'm all right, Wisteria.
[19:09] Marbas
    Just caught a bit off-guard.
[19:14] Marbas
    And now you have her answer.
[19:17] Marbas
    Compared to our pact,
    the ties of your family are—
[19:20] Wisteria
    No.
[19:21] Wisteria
    It has nothing to do with the pact!
[19:24] Wisteria
    I... I...
[19:27] Wisteria
    I want to be with you!
[19:30] Wisteria
    When I was was sad, and alone,
[19:33] Wisteria
    and had no hope for the future,
[19:34] Wisteria
    you came and visited me, time and again!
[19:37] Wisteria
    And it made me so happy!
[19:40] Wisteria
    Which is why I decided
    I want to stay with you!
[19:47] Wisteria
    Brother, please... let us go!
[19:52] (Flashback) Snow
    Stop it, Wisteria! Get down, now!
[19:55] (Flashback) Wisteria
    I remember your promise, Brother!
[19:57] (Flashback) Wisteria
    That if I could get to the top, you'd take
     the day off work to play with me!
[20:02] Snow
    Wisteria... I know when you've
     made your mind up,
[20:07] Snow
    there's no telling you otherwise.
[20:11] Snow
    I know that better than anyone!
[20:16] Snow
    Damn it... Damn it!
[20:19] Snow
    Damn it!
[20:27] Snow
    As much as I might not approve...
[20:29] Snow
    I'm leaving Wis in your care.
[20:32] Snow
    I'll try to throw my bosses off
    with my report, too.
[20:34] Wisteria
    Brother...
[20:36] Marbas
    Not much for loyalty, are you?
[20:38] Snow
    Shut up! I'm doing this for her sake.
[20:41] Snow
    I'll always choose my family before my job.
[20:46] Snow
    Still, I don't know how much
    I can protect you.
[20:49] Snow
    Sooner or later, you two
    are going to be hunted.
[20:53] Snow
    But no matter what else happens,
    you had better protect Wis.
[20:56] Snow
    If she's ever hurt, I'll kill you.
[21:01] Snow
    Even if I have to sell my soul
     to a demon to do it.
[21:04] Marbas
    At least you seem to have a sense of humor.
[21:08] Snow
    Wis...
[21:10] Snow
    I'll see you again.
[21:12] Wisteria
    Right. That's a promise, Brother.
[21:19] Marbas
    Looks like I got more than
    I bargained for. How lucky.
[21:24] Marbas
    It's nothing.
[21:27] Marbas
    We should be on our way.
[21:32] Marbas
    It just means that you and your brother
[21:37] Marbas
    seem to be humans who will keep me amused.
[23:18] Naberius
    You sure you're good with this?
[23:22] Diane
    Yes. Of course.
[23:35] Diane
    I knew what we would have to do.
