**[00:06] Bandit A**
Fresh meat is the best meat!
**[00:08] Bandit B**
I'd love to try plant-based food before I die!
**[00:12] Bandit C**
How extravagant!
**[00:15] Bandit B**
Anyway, the Worms were
awfully irritated today.
**[00:19] Bandit A**
Hm?
**[00:26] Bandit A**
What's with that guy?
**[00:28] Bandit B**
He's in a suit in the middle of the desert!
**[00:30] Bandit C**
He's not long for this world.
**[00:32] Bandit B**
No kidding! He's carrying his own tombstone!
**[01:03] OP Lyrics**
*My tears scattered like bits of paper*
**[01:07] OP Lyrics**
*Scared of the unknowable tomorrow*
**[01:10] OP Lyrics**
* I lived the same day over*
* and over, back and forth*
**[01:14] OP Lyrics**
*But a new morning never came*
**[01:18] OP Lyrics**
*All the reasons to calm down*
**[01:20] OP Lyrics**
*Are just some moments until the crash*
**[01:25] OP Lyrics**
*I’m no longer the one that everyone knows*
**[01:28] OP Lyrics**
*Took off the fragile armor*
**[01:32] OP Lyrics**
*I don’t want to lose any more love*
**[01:40] OP Lyrics**
*I don’t want to lose any more love*
**[01:47] OP Lyrics**
* There’s still no line*
* between today and tomorrow*
**[01:51] OP Lyrics**
*My waking nightmare doesn’t end*
**[01:54] OP Lyrics**
*And yet I won’t lose hope*
**[01:58] OP Lyrics**
* And yet there’s no night*
* that doesn’t end*
**[02:04] OP Lyrics**
*Not here, not here*
**[02:24] Radio Host**
* It's been three days since*
* the tragedy in Jeneora Rock.*
**[02:27] Radio Host**
* The chain of incidents has been linked*
* to the wanted criminal Vash the Stampede.*
**[02:28] Meryl**
I can't believe he's sleeping so soundly.
**[02:33] Radio Host**
* Additionally, a man and a woman have*
* been identified as possible accomplices.*
**[02:38] Radio Host**
* The seven cities' military police are also*
* searching for them as persons of interest.*
**[02:44] Meryl**
So now we're wanted, too?
**[02:46] Roberto**
If headquarters finds out, we'll be fired.
**[02:51] Radio Host**
*And now, the weather for the seven cities...*
**[02:57] Roberto**
It's his. He doesn't want it.
**[03:00] Meryl**
What? But yesterday...
**[03:02] Roberto**
He hasn't eaten. Not since that day.
**[03:06] Roberto**
Only god really knows
what goes on inside someone.
**[03:22] Meryl**
A sandstorm?
**[03:23] Roberto**
No, those are...
**[03:26] Roberto**
Worms.
**[03:29] Roberto**
In these parts, they're
an important source of protein.
**[03:32] Roberto**
If you can stomach the way
they look, they're not bad.
**[03:35] Meryl**
I think stomaching *that*
would be the hard part.
**[03:53] Meryl**
Are you all right?!
**[04:07] Meryl**
You're not dying on me!
**[04:21] Meryl**
Excuse me! This man is hurt...
**[04:31] Roberto**
It's too late for these folks.
**[04:34] Meryl**
They came all the way out here?
**[04:37] Wolfwood**
"They"?
**[05:14] Wolfwood**
Okay...
**[05:16] Wolfwood**
O father in heaven,
**[05:22] Wolfwood**
forgive us our sins
as we forgive our neighbors.
**[05:27] Wolfwood**
May you accept our fallen brethren
**[05:29] Wolfwood**
and welcome the departed to your...
**[05:34] Wolfwood**
What is it?
**[05:35] Wolfwood**
Welcome them to your... dinner?
**[05:39] Wolfwood**
No, that's a meal.
**[05:41] Wolfwood**
Deliver them unto your... design?
**[05:44] Wolfwood**
No, nobody's talking about fashion.
**[05:50] Wolfwood**
Uh, give us a drive...
**[05:52] Wolfwood**
He's not your chauffeur, you idiot.
**[05:55] Meryl**
Are you really a priest?
**[05:58] Wolfwood**
I'm no priest. Just an undertaker.
**[06:01] Wolfwood**
Now back off. You're ruining it.
**[06:04] Meryl**
Anyway, what's this cross? It's way too huge.
**[06:09] Wolfwood**
Hey, keep your mitts off of it.
**[06:11] Meryl**
What?
**[06:13] Vash**
Hey, you two.
**[06:25] Wolfwood**
Here.
**[06:27] Wolfwood**
You're hungry, right?
**[06:30] Wolfwood**
It's good.
**[06:31] Meryl**
Maybe you should leave him be—
**[06:32] Wolfwood**
I lost my parents, too.
I grew up in an orphanage.
**[06:40] Wolfwood**
Good, right?
**[06:44] Wolfwood**
No matter how heavy a cross you carry,
**[06:47] Wolfwood**
you still deserve to eat.
You still deserve to laugh.
**[07:05] Vash**
Twenty thousand?!
**[07:07] Meryl**
What a rip-off!
**[07:08] Wolfwood**
You should've asked my rates
before asking me to work, dolts.
**[07:12] Meryl**
You volunteered yourself
before we even could!
**[07:14] Wolfwood**
Did not.
**[07:16] Meryl**
You can't talk your way out of this!
**[07:17] Wolfwood**
Man, you're dogged.
**[07:17] Roberto**
Are we done?
**[07:19] Meryl**
I won't brook this injustice!
**[07:21] Roberto**
Wait, what's this ridiculous price?
**[07:22] Wolfwood**
What? Stop blabbering and pay up!
**[07:26] Roberto**
By the way, aren't you hurt?
You got hit by a car, but you look fine.
**[07:31] Wolfwood**
Yeah, I'm tough. It's my saving grace.
**[07:41] Meryl**
An earthquake?
**[07:42] Vash**
No, this is...
**[08:01] Vash**
A Grand Worm!
**[08:31] Roberto**
No way!
**[08:42] Vash**
Are you okay?
**[08:43] Meryl**
Yes, thank you.
**[08:53] Meryl**
Ew, it's so damp.
**[08:56] Wolfwood**
Watch your step.
**[09:03] Meryl**
Come on!
**[09:07] Vash**
Wait, take a look.
**[09:12] Meryl**
They're resonating?
**[09:15] Meryl**
So it's true.
The Worms really are interconnected.
**[09:19] Roberto**
That's their detached electron network.
**[09:22] Roberto**
The bigger the Worm,
the more detached electrons it holds.
**[09:27] Roberto**
This guy must be the pillar
of the Worms in the area.
**[09:31] Meryl**
Meaning?
**[09:32] Roberto**
He's the boss around here.
**[09:35] Meryl**
Oh, hey!
**[09:44] Meryl**
Wait!
**[09:53] Vash**
Which hole did he go into?
**[09:55] Wolfwood**
I envy kids and their light feet.
**[09:57] Roberto**
Why don't you put down that cross, then?
**[10:00] Wolfwood**
It's the tool of my trade. How would
I make a living if I offloaded it?
**[10:09] Meryl**
We need to hurry.
**[10:10] Wolfwood**
Then we should split up.
**[10:11] Wolfwood**
Needle-noggin, you take the farthest one.
**[10:13] Vash**
"Needle-noggin"?
**[10:14] Wolfwood**
Little missy can take the next one.
**[10:16] Meryl**
My name is Meryl Stryfe!
**[10:17] Wolfwood**
Uncle Downer can go there.
**[10:19] Wolfwood**
And I'll take that one.
**[10:22] Meryl**
Why're *you* calling the shots?
**[10:23] Wolfwood**
I thought you were in a hurry.
**[10:29] Meryl**
I don't get it.
**[10:31] Meryl**
Why split up when there's
no telling what could happen?
**[10:44] Meryl**
N-No one's there, right?
**[10:52] Meryl**
Are you all right?!
**[11:00] Meryl**
Thank goodness.
**[11:20] Vash**
No luck. I can't find them anywhere.
**[11:23] Roberto**
Me neither.
**[11:25] Wolfwood**
That's enough. You should find
a way out unless you wanna die, too.
**[11:29] Vash**
I'm sure they're both fine.
We'll find and help them.
**[11:35] Wolfwood**
So you'd risk your life for theirs?
**[11:40] Wolfwood**
Self-sacrifice on self-sacrifice...
You're a weird one.
**[11:52] Wolfwood**
You only get one life.
**[11:56] Wolfwood**
You have to fight for it, no matter
who you hurt in the process.
**[12:02] Wolfwood**
There's no other way to survive.
**[12:05] Roberto**
Watch out, Stampede.
**[12:08] Roberto**
They take the first bite
to get your guard down,
**[12:10] Roberto**
then lace what they pass
to their target with poison.
**[12:13] Roberto**
Standard stuff for assassins.
**[12:16] Wolfwood**
Huh?
**[12:17] Roberto**
Our news agency isn't much to be proud of,
**[12:20] Roberto**
but one thing we *do* have
is a good intel network.
**[12:23] Roberto**
I've heard about humans who control Worms.
**[12:28] Wolfwood**
Who, me?
**[12:30] Wolfwood**
That makes no sense, you dolt.
I'm stuck in here with you.
**[12:33] Roberto**
In that case, let me check out
that precious cross of yours.
**[12:40] Wolfwood**
This isn't funny anymore.
**[12:42] Roberto**
From the look of it,
it's too heavy to be a mere cross.
**[12:47] Roberto**
Give me a peek inside, why don't you?
**[12:50] Wolfwood**
Why don't you make me?
**[12:52] Wolfwood**
With your derringer that looks
too light to be a real gun, hmm?
**[12:57] Vash**
Come on, you two.
**[12:58] Roberto**
Stampede, this is a man who can
kill with a smile on his face.
**[13:03] Vash**
No, I don't think so.
**[13:05] Roberto**
Why's that?
**[13:09] Vash**
I can see it in his eyes.
**[13:17] Wolfwood**
You really mess with me.
**[13:20] Vash**
See?
**[13:25] Vash**
Roberto?
**[13:30] Vash**
Meryl!
**[13:34] Vash**
Roberto!
**[13:36] Wolfwood**
It's pointless. They've all been digested.
**[13:39] Vash**
This place is covered in skeletons,
so the Worms can't digest *that* much.
**[13:45] Vash**
Besides, I haven't seen
a single one of their bones.
**[13:47] Wolfwood**
What about it?
**[13:49] Vash**
It's too early to give up.
**[13:53] Wolfwood**
So, how long do you want
to keep wandering in circles?
**[13:59] Vash**
Um...
**[14:01] Wolfwood**
Maybe we're the lost ones, not them.
**[14:05] Vash**
Come on... Stop trying to scare me.
**[14:24] Wolfwood**
So we were in its nose...
**[14:26] Bandit A**
Hey, you guys! Are you all right?!
**[14:29] Bandit C**
It's a Worm spout!
**[14:30] Bandit B**
I've never seen such a big one before!
**[14:33] Bandit C**
Run! Hurry! Behind you!
**[14:35] Bandits**
Beat it! Hurry! Run! Come on!
**[14:40] Wolfwood**
Hey, *hey!* You just lucked out and
you're gonna throw it all away?
**[14:46] Wolfwood**
There's no guarantee you'll get lucky again!
**[14:49] Vash**
You should run.
**[14:51] Bandit A**
Don't do it!
**[14:52] Bandit B**
You'll die!
**[14:53] Bandit C**
Run! Hurry!
**[14:55] Wolfwood**
You fool...
**[15:23] Vash**
You're...
**[15:31] Vash**
You're all right now.
**[15:36] Wolfwood**
A little too careless, aren't we?
**[15:40] Wolfwood**
We only met today. How many times
have you let me out of your sight?
**[15:46] Vash**
Yet not once did you shoot me.
**[15:53] Vash**
That unique mosquito sound...
**[15:55] Vash**
So you're the one controlling the Worms.
**[15:59] Zazie**
That's odd. It should be
inaudible to regular humans.
**[16:05] Zazie**
Good job seeing through my disguise.
**[16:08] Vash**
Did you kill that couple, too?
**[16:10] Zazie**
Humans always assume it's a family
**[16:13] Zazie**
when they see a group of adults and children.
**[16:16] Vash**
Where are Meryl and Roberto?
**[16:18] Zazie**
You came back for them?
**[16:25] Zazie**
I simply don't understand...
**[16:29] Zazie**
Didn't you realize returning
for them would get you killed?
**[16:42] Vash**
Give them back!
**[16:44] Zazie**
If you must know what happened
to them, then make me talk.
**[16:51] Vash**
Damn it...
**[16:52] Wolfwood**
You're leaving yourself wide open again.
**[17:04] Wolfwood**
Eat this.
**[17:11] Wolfwood**
Pathetic Worm!
**[17:34] Vash**
Who are you?
**[17:36] Wolfwood**
Just an undertaker.
**[17:40] Zazie**
I'll be seeing you.
**[17:41] Zazie**
That is... assuming you get out of here alive.
**[17:51] Vash**
Hey, wait!
**[17:56] Wolfwood**
You're not getting away, Worm.
**[18:06] Wolfwood**
I'm a tough nut to crack.
**[18:36] Wolfwood**
Fresh meat is definitely the best!
**[18:39] Wolfwood**
What, you still feeling sick?
**[18:41] Meryl**
No, I'm fine thanks to you...
**[18:45] Meryl**
I appreciate you saving me—
**[18:47] Wolfwood**
Here, eat.
**[18:49] Meryl**
I'm fine...
**[18:50] Wolfwood**
You're not going to survive like that.
**[18:52] Wolfwood**
Come on! Eat up!
**[18:55] Meryl**
Hey! What do you think you're doing?!
**[18:56] Roberto**
I see now. The cross is
actually a machine gun.
**[19:01] Roberto**
No wonder it's so heavy.
**[19:05] Roberto**
I told you he's bad news.
**[19:08] Vash**
But we made it through thanks to him.
**[19:11] Roberto**
You'd thank a villain for his vagaries?
**[19:15] Roberto**
That's a little too generous.
**[19:19] Vash**
I get that a lot.
**[19:23] Roberto**
Then fix it already...
**[19:29] Wolfwood**
Just eat up already.
**[19:30] Meryl**
I told you, I'm fine.
**[19:31] Wolfwood**
Don't be picky with your food.
**[19:33] Meryl**
That's not the deal.
**[19:35] Wolfwood**
Then what is?
**[19:40] Meryl**
Vash...
**[19:43] Vash**
I still deserve to eat and laugh, right?
**[19:49] Wolfwood**
The name's Nicholas D. Wolfwood.
**[19:53] Vash**
Vash the Stampede—
**[19:55] Wolfwood**
Needle-noggin.
**[19:56] Vash**
N-Needle-noggin?
**[19:58] Wolfwood**
Welp, let's get going.
**[20:00] Meryl**
Wait, you're coming with us?
**[20:02] Wolfwood**
You need someone like me, don't you?
**[20:04] Wolfwood**
Seems you're dealing
with some unsavory types.
**[20:06] Meryl**
Thank you, but no.
**[20:08] Wolfwood**
I won't be too expensive.
**[20:09] Meryl**
No, thanks.
**[20:11] Roberto**
You should be asking why
he thinks he can charge us.
**[20:14] Meryl**
Please say something, Roberto!
**[20:15] Roberto**
Well, we're just tagging along
without permission, too.
**[20:20] Meryl**
It's totally different!
**[20:22] Wolfwood**
Huh, I didn't expect him
to be the reasonable one.
**[20:26] Wolfwood**
Gimme one.
**[20:28] Roberto**
I didn't say you could have one.
**[20:30] Wolfwood**
Don't be so cheap.
**[20:31] Meryl**
No! We can't afford any more expenditure!
**[20:34] Vash**
Look! Check out the sky.
**[20:36] Meryl**
What now? This is important...
**[20:42] Meryl**
How pretty.
**[20:46] Roberto**
Those are all Worms.
**[20:50] Meryl**
Thanks for ruining it.
**[21:02] Wolfwood**
You overdid it.
You almost got me killed, too...
**[21:09] Wolfwood**
Zazie the Beast.
**[21:11] Zazie**
But you earned their trust, right?
**[21:15] Zazie**
Besides, killing "friends" is your favorite.
**[21:20] Zazie**
You honestly couldn't care less
about human lives, could you?
**[21:27] Zazie**
I can see it in your eyes.
**[21:30] Wolfwood**
Hah, I don't care.
**[21:32] Wolfwood**
I just do my job,
**[21:36] Wolfwood**
no matter who I'm up against.
**[21:42] Conrad**
What Vash the Stampede
manifested at that moment
**[21:47] Conrad**
must be the gate that allows access
to the higher dimension.
**[21:50] Conrad**
But it's still locked.
**[21:54] Conrad**
His morality and ethics are
functioning as a defensive measure.
**[22:01] Conrad**
Your little brother is
more human than anyone.
**[22:09] Knives**
Then we'll just have to pry it open.
**[22:15] Knives**
We'll destroy him if we have to.
