INTRODUCTION							[INTR]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a compilation of all the events dialogue from Front Mission 2 into one
file. Events basically refers to the scenes which play out during the video
game and do not occur during mission play. This is also the last section that
remains fully in Japanese, as every other section is already in English (or
in the case of the Network, in "Engrish").

As such, this script is meant to be used in conjunction with the video game's
Patch 2 release.

HOW TO USE THIS GUIDE
---------------------

Basically, all scenes that are shown in the game will be noted to some degree
in a chronological format. For example, if there is a mission or a special
event (see the FM2_Readme file from the Patch 2 zip for more on this), then
their occurrence will be noted. However, their dialogue will not be shown
since it will already be in English, provided Patch 2 has been applied.

For the dialogue in the full-motion videos (FMV) for Front Mission 2, a link
to the subbed versions on YouTube will be noted.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SPECIAL EVENT 01 - The Coup Outbreak

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

O.C.U. MDF RIMIAN BASE:

(Ash's Room)

Ash: The alarm? What the!?

(Move to the Hangar)

Amia: Ash! This is bad! It looks like an assault by the Alordesh military!

Ash: Why the hell would the Alordesh military attack an O.C.U. base!?

Amia: I don't know! Right now, we've just got to join the fight!

Ash: Got it, let's move out. Roughly how many enemies are there?

Joyce: I don't know how many, but there's wanzers and some battle helicopters
       too!

(Upon leaving the area)

Joyce: You ready to go?

(Select YES)

Ash: Alright, let's do this!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MISSION 01 - O.C.U. MDF Rimian Base

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTERMISSION 01							[IN01]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BATARI FOREST:

Joyce: Well, looks like we lost them.  What do we do now?

Ash: You manage to contact any other bases?

Joyce: Nope. No matter which one I try to contact, theres no response. Its
       strange. Like were the only ones left in the whole world.

Ash: Well somethings strange...Joyce switch to civilian radio frequencies.

Joyce: Got it...

Announcer: ...At dawn today, forces lead by Alordesh Military Lieutenant
           Colonel Ven Mackarge captured a great number of anti-coup forces
           and O.C.U. military personnel. Among those captured was the head
           of the Alordesh Military, General Gwianda, and it seems likely
           that the coup will succeed. The coup leader, Lieutenant Colonel
           Ven Mackarge, has declared the Peoples Republic of Alordesh
           entirely independent from the O.C.U., and has stated that if the
           Alordeshi government and the O.C.U. Central Parliament do not
           recognize this independence, the safety of his hostages cannot be
           guaranteed.

Ash: Ven Mackarge...

Amia: You know him?

Ash: Theres no one I dont know in the Alordesh military.

Amia: Right, you were in the Alordesh military.

Joyce: Dont worry about that. Lets think about a way to get out of this
       country.

(A map is opened)

Ash: This is the shortest route to the border.

Joyce: But, if we go this way, we have to go through the O.C.U. Ground
       Defense Forces Ramanston Base.

Amia: We might run into the coup detat forces.

Ash: Even so, if we take any other route itll take a hell of a long time to
     reach the border. Itd be even more dangerous.

Joyce: I guess we dont have much choice then. But, we only took out a few
       of the enemy wanzers. How are we going to deal with the next bunch?

Amia: Dont worry about that. I grabbed some repair equipment, ammo, and
      wanzer parts when we fled the base.

Ash: In any case, we should try to avoid battle as much as possible until
     we reach the border.

(Upon leaving the area)

Joyce: Well, is it time to move out? 

(Select YES)

Joyce: Im praying we dont get spotted by the enemy!

Ash: Yeah, I dont want any problems until we reach the border.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MISSION 02 - O.C.U. GDF Ramanston Base Environs

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTERMISSION 02							[IN02]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

O.C.U. GDF RAMANSTON BASE ENVIRONS:

Thomas: Well then, lets get down to business. You guys are Marines?

Ash: Thats right.

Thomas: So, you guys must have fled from the coup detat forces who attacked
        Rimian Base right?

Ash: Yeah.

Thomas: So, youre heading over to the border by Feni river?

Ash: Thats right.

Thomas: Well, then youll be completely eradicated.

Joyce: What!? What the hell are you talking about!?

Thomas: The coup detat forces have helicopter patrols flying out of
        Ramanston along the border. Youll be spotted for sure.

Joyce: ...

Amia: Well then, how can we escape the country?

(A map is opened)

Thomas: Basically, we need to head for the capital  Dhaka.

Joyce: Whoa, whoa, hang on General. Dhaka is bound to be swarming with coup
       detat forces.

Amia: Whats more, the border is right here. But, wed be heading straight
      for the interior.

Thomas: Dont worry, Ive got an acquaintance in the Dhaka suburbs. If we
        meet up with him, I can get him to help us escape the country.

Ash: Can we trust him?

Thomas: More than you can trust me! Gwahahaha!

Ash: ...

Thomas: Hey, hey, dont be so nervous! I dont wanna die, so Im not gonna
        tell ya any lies.

Ash: So, what do we do?

Joyce: Well, he is our superior officer. Why dont we try trusting him?

Thomas: Yeah, thats more like it! Gwahahahaha!

(Upon leaving the area)

Thomas: Well, should we be heading out then boys? 

(Select YES)

Thomas: Alright, lets move!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SPECIAL EVENT 02 - Saribash Labra

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SARIBASH'S HOUSE:

(Reception Room)

Saribash: You must be tired. Make yourself at home.

Saribash: So, you guys want to flee the country right? Before the coup forces
          catch you, that is.

Thomas: That's right Saribash, help us out will ya?

Saribash: Hang on, I'll do whatever I can. However, we've got our hands full
          with our own problems right now.

Joyce: Are you throwing your lot in with the coup forces?

Saribash: Watch your mouth!! Are you trying to say I'm selling weapons to
          Ven!?

Thomas: Whoa, whoa. Calm down, Saribash.

Saribash: Anyhow, you guys will have to help me out with my problems. If you
          do, I'll return the favor.         

Amia: You're asking us to help out the mafia?

Saribash: Thomas is my friend, but you guys are a different story. That's why
          I expect you to put some effort in if you want my help.

Joyce: ...

Saribash: It looks like we both need some time to calm down... Lila! You
          here!?

Lila: What is it, Papa?

Saribash: Would you show them to the guest quarters?

Lila: Of course. Please come this way.

(Move to the Guest Room)

Lila: Please relax and make yourselves at home.

Thomas: Well? What's the matter with you guys?

Amia: Haven't you heard that Burg Shomity sells arms smuggled out of the
      O.C.U. to foreign countries? I'm not interested in helping with
      smuggling.

Joyce: I don't trust this guy either. He might sell us out to the coup
       forces.

Thomas: It's only because you guys don't know Saribash that you'd say that.

Amia: I want to get out of this country as fast as we can, but I'm not about
      to stick my neck out for the mafia.

Thomas: But, what if helping Saribash is the best way to get out of here?

Amia: That's...

Ash: Is that the truth, Thomas?

Thomas: It's definitely better than us trying to get to the border by
        ourselves.

Roswell: I agree with Miss Amia. After all, I always defer to the will of a
         beautiful woman...

Amia: ...

Rocky: ...

Ash: ...Rocky?

Rocky: Yeah, what's the matter, Ash?

Ash: You know me from somewhere?

Rocky: Nah, it's nothing...anyhow, I agree with Thomas. That's all I've got
       to say.

Thomas: Ash, you're from Alordesh right? You should know just who Saribash
        is.

Ash: So you knew...

Thomas: What, I just figured it out from the way you talk.

Ash: ...Saribash is considered a hero in this country. Since he's the only
     one willing to stand up to the O.C.U. ...but, I'm not for Alordesh or
     the O.C.U. I just want to survive.

Thomas: Hmm...

Joyce: I don't trust the mafia. No matter what reason they give, I won't
       help them!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SPECIAL EVENT 03 - An Independent Alordesh

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SARIBASH'S HOUSE:

(Guest Room)

Ash: Joyce!

Thomas: Joyce, it seems Ash and the others have made up their minds. They're
        going to take Saribash up on his offer. What will you do?

Joyce: I'll do what needs to be done...I'm fine either way...I'm gonna hit
       the hay.

Ash: Joyce...

Thomas: It's decided. Well, I think I'm gonna get some shut eye too.

(Reception Room)

June 13, 2102 - 7:00 AM

Thomas: So, that's why we've decided to take you up on your offer, Saribash.

Saribash: I see. You're going to help me out, eh? ...When I got angry...last
          night, well I'm sorry about that.

Joyce: ...

Ash: It's fine. We were never too caught up on it.

Saribash: Okay, good. Go get ready then. Oh, and this is data on the coup
          d'etat forces at the objective. I'll definitely help you out to
          take a look at it on the network.

Saribash: Well, hurry up and get your preparations done.

(A map is shown)

Saribash: The objective is in Dhaka - a storage facility owned by my company.

Rocky: Company?

Saribash: Burg Shomity is just a name the media made up. Our real name is
          Burg Transportation. That's my shipping company.

Amia: What's in the facility?

Saribash: Weapons I took from the O.C.U. Ven will definitely try to come
          after them. We're out to take as many of the weapons as possible
          before he does.

Ash: What's Ven's beef with you?

Saribash: That's got nothing to do with you. Just protect the transport truck
          we'll use to move the weapons.

Amia: We're going to be the only guards for the convoy?

Saribash: My employees will be making a diversion. It doesn't seem like the
          coup forces have an HQ in the capital, so our forces should be
          more than adequate.

Thomas: The coup forces are short of men...huh?

Saribash: In any case, I'll give ya 1000 up front. You can do your setup in
          the basement of the building. But, it'll cost ya.

Roswell: What, it's not free? Man, you're cheap.

Saribash: You guys are looking for a way out of the country, right? This
          should be more than enough for that.

Thomas: Haha, you never change. Alright, let's get ready to fight, you bums!

(Move to the Hangar)

Hangar Manager: I heard from the boss. But, I'm not gonna lower the prices
                for ya just 'cause you're the boss' pals. Oh, that's right.
                Here, I'll give you this. It's the address and password for
                our company. You can get parts anywhere in the country by
                using our online shopping service.

(Return to the Reception Room)

Saribash: Thomas, I'm sorry...but I've got one more favor to ask.

Thomas: Favor? Well, spit it out then.

Saribash: This country needs me. I can't die right now. The revolution has
          put my life in danger. So, I formed a guard unit to protect me,
          but their training just isn't going well. So, I was wondering if
          you guys could...

Thomas: You want us to train your forces.

Saribash: Yes. I believe pros like you guys could turn the Saribash Unit into
          an elite fighting force. So how about, will ya train them? Of
          course, I'll pay you a nice instructor's fee.

Thomas: Instructor's fee eh...well, I guess that'd make me a teacher.

Saribash: That's right. I'd like you guys to teach my unit.

Thomas: Hey, hey, hang on a sec. I don't look much of a teacher, do I?
        Wouldn't she fit the part a lot better?

Amia: No way! I already said I'm not interested in helping the mafia, didn't
      I?

Thomas: That's it! I thought you could save face for me.

Amia: "No" means no!

Joyce: Hey now Amia, if you agree to train the Saribash Unit, I'm sure you'll
       be put out of your misery pretty quick. No doubt about it.

Amia: That's not much of a reason.

Thomas: Oh come on! It can't be that hard to do.

Amia: It's not like you've got much to begin with, but I guess it can't be
      helped.

Saribash: So, you'll do it for me!? Let's head over to the Agit training
          room in the basement then.

(Move to the Training Room)

Saribash: Hey! Is Ace here!?

Bodyguard Captain Ace: Heya Bossman! You got a job for me?

Saribash: I've got a tutor for you guys.

Bodyguard Captain Ace: We don't need no tutors, boss man.

Saribash: You moron! Don't you understand I can't even send you off to fight
          at your current level of skill?

Bodyguard Captain Ace: Ouch. Sorry 'bout that boss man!

Saribash: Miss Amia here will be your tutor from this day forward. She's an
          expert in battle, so listen to what she has to say.

Bodyguard Captain Ace: H-hey...

Saribash: If you increase their level by just one point I'll up your teacher's
          wage. I'll give Ace the money, so you get it from him. Here's the
          200 for the first class. Give it your all for me. I'll leave things
          up to you, Amia. You can find me in my room.

(Ask Ace for an explanation of training)

Bodyguard Captain Ace: How to train me? Man, cut it out already, Miss Amia.
                       How the fuck am I supposed to know that? If you don't
                       know, then why would the boss man hire you?

(Ask Ace for his current level)

Bodyguard Captain Ace: Our level? You don't even need to look it up since
                       it's rock bottom zero.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SIMULATOR MISSION - Saribash's House

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SARIBASH'S HOUSE:

(Training Room)

Bodyguard Captain Ace: Miss Amia, it looks like our level has gone up to 1.
                       And you get $300 from the boss man. You're looking to
                       get out of the country, right? This should be more
                       than enough for ya.

(Return to Reception Room and head out)

Amia: Joyce, why did you choose to take Saribash up on his offer?

Joyce: Oh, it's nothing...I'm not doing it for Saribash. Like Ash, I just
       don't want to die.

Thomas: Well, ready everyone?

(Select YES)

Thomas: Alright, let's move out!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MISSION 03 - Downtown Dhaka

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTERMISSION 03							[IN03]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DAUKANDEI:

Amia: Are all the towns in this country like this?

Ash: What do you mean by like this?

Amia: So gloomy with trash scattered everywhere.

Ash: ...

Lila: I am glad to see you are safe everyone.

Thomas: Hey, Lila, you came to meet us?

Lila: My father is waiting in his office.

Joyce: His office?

Thomas: She means the Agit base. The sign on the door says Burg
        Transportation though.

Lila: Please come this way.

(Move to Agit)

Thomas: Is Saribash in the reception room?

Lila: Yes...but, Thomas...you should know my father is very...

Thomas: Ive got it. Hes in a bad mood right? No worries, its because the
        town was so smashed up after all.

Lila: ...

Thomas: Dont worry, itll be fine Lila. Well everyone, lets head into the
        office.

Joyce: Lila...Im sorry about bringing up such a nasty topic last night...

Lila: Oh no, its fine. Dont worry about it.

Joyce: Yeah...well then Ill be going.

Lila: Right.

(Move to the Reception Room)

Thomas: Hey, do me a favor and calm down will ya?

Saribash: Calm down!? This is no joke, Thomas. Ven...that dirty bastard bombed
          the capital! How many civilians do you think died out there!?

Thomas: I understand Saribash, I understand.

Saribash: ...fuck, was it my fault because I wanted to move those smuggled
          goods?

Thomas: ...

Saribash: Thomas...heres your payment...but dont leave just yet...

Amia: What about getting out of the country?

Saribash: Just give me some time...I cant think straight right now...

Thomas: I got it. Come on everyone lets give him some time alone. ...Huh?
        What happened to Rocky and Roswell?

Ash: They took off to have some drinks just as soon as we got into town.

Thomas: Ha, those two are hopeless. Well, why dont we go join them?

(Return to the city)

Ash: ...

Thomas: Whats got you so spaced out?

Ash: Hm? Oh, its just that the town I was born in is close to here...Im,
     you know...

Thomas: Hrm, your hometown eh? ...its like a microcosm of this whole
        country. Rusted out buildings, lifeless markets, streets filled with
        the poor...everyone at a loss for what sort of future they might
        have...

Ash: What made Ven so determined to launch his coup...?

Roswell: Heya, Thomas.

Thomas: Whered you guys run off to?

Roswell: We found an arena!

Thomas: An arena? For wanzers?

Roswell: We came to get ya, Thomas. Miss Amia too, of course. What about you
         Ash? You wanna hit up the arena?

(Select NO)

Ash: Nah, Im alright.

Amia: I dont want to go either.

Joyce: Ill pass too. Im pretty beat.

Thomas: Got it. Well then, well head there by ourselves.

(Move to the Underground Hangar)

Hangar Manager: The new Leonora Enterprise models are in. Here, this is
                Leonoras network address. You can load your wanzer for bear,
                but a lighter load out will let you move faster.

(Move to the Half Moon Bar)

Bartender: This is just between you and me, but you should know the Alordeshis
           are allergic to O.C.U.

Lonely Martin: Gulp, damn this booze is good! Tastes better cause the
               revolutionary forces are taking down the O.C.U.!! Hey, you
               drink up too!!

Wistful Nick: Anyone thinking of making for the border should just give it up.
              It doesnt matter who they are. Anyone would be caught and
              executed.

Good Time Rosanna: Looks like the capital is in dire straits. But. theres no
                   way the war will come here.

One-Track Mind Elena: Revolutions got nothin to do with me. As long as Ive
                      got a good drink in my hand, Ive got nothing to
                      complain about.

(Move to the Arena)

Eager Teddy: Strong fighters are treated like heroes in this town. Maybe I
             should become one too.

Solemn Carl: Sigh...when I fight its as though Im remembering something
             long lost...sigh...

Fangirl Ann: The champion of this arena is a mystery man! He never takes off
             his helmet during a fight! Hardly anyone knows his true face!

Fighting Man Enthusiast Dorothy: Men are only truly alive in battle. I just
                                 cant stand a man who has forgotten how to
                                 fight!

(Ask for an explanation of the Arena to the Arena Manager)

Arena Manager: In the arena, you can pit your wanzers against those of other
               competitors. There are two kinds of battles held: 1v1 Solo
               Fights and up to 5v5 Team Fights. If you win battles, you
               will receive cash rewards and prizes. On the other hand, if
               you lose your fight, we will retain the fight money you paid
               to enter.

(Ask for an explanation of solo fights to the Arena Manager)

Arena Manager: Solo fights are 1v1. Before the battle begins, you will have
               to choose the weapons you want to use in battle five times.
               These will be used in sequence for five rounds until a winner
               is determined. Please take note that in the case that a weapon
               you chose to use becomes unusable (if the arm it is equipped
               on is destroyed) then you will be unable to act in the round
               when you chose to fire it. For example, if you chose to use
               the weapon on your left arm five times in a row, as soon as
               that arm was destroyed, you would no longer be able to attack.
               Victory conditions are to either destroy the opponent wanzer's
               body, or to render its weapons inoperable.

(Ask for an explanation of team fights to the Arena Manager)

Arena Manager: These fights involve a maximum of 5v5 combatants. The enemy
               team will always have 5 machines, but you can choose to send 
               from 1 to 5 wanzers against them. The rules of battle are
               identical to a regular battle. However, you cannot steal parts
               from the enemy. In addition, there is no option to surrender
               or give up. The victory conditions are to defeat the enemy
               leader. 

(After asking for all three explanations to the Arena Manager)

Arena Manager: Oh right, heres a network password for you. Itll let you view
               data about the other arena combatants. Information can make the
               difference between victory and defeat.

(Return to the Reception Room after participating in at least one arena fight)

Saribash: Ah, its you guys. Sorry for blowing up at you earlier.

Ash: Dont worry about it. Were more interested in how were going to escape
     the country.

Saribash: Ah right, the plans are already made. But, are you fleeing too? 
          Youre an Alordeshi, arent you?

Ash: ...

Saribash: Hey forget it, everyones got their own story... Get Thomas over
          here. Once everyones assembled, well discuss the plan.

(Return to the Arena)

Amia: Thomas! Saribash wants to see you. Lets get back to Agit.

Thomas: Hang on, this is just getting good.

Joyce: Jeez, we all want to get out of this country ASAP. Come on.

Thomas: ...

(Return to the Reception Room)

Thomas: You calmed down, Saribash?

Saribash: Yeah, sorry about that. The fact that I cant keep a handle on my
          emotions is a sign of my age.

Thomas: Well, Im not exactly a spring chicken either.

Ash: So, how are we getting out of the country?

Saribash: Right, the plans ready. Ive even contacted the O.C.U.

Amia: The O.C.U.?

Saribash: Thats right.

(A map is shown)

Saribash: The O.C.U. military recently began hostage rescue missions around
          the country. Rescued prisoners are being taken from the southern
          coastline by helicopter to O.C.U. controlled waters. I already
          contacted the O.C.U. and asked for your rescue. If you can make it
          to the coastline, theyll handle things the rest of the way.

Amia: Wow.

Joyce: When do we leave?

Saribash: Right away. You have to get to the coast by the end of the day.

Joyce: By the end of the day...huh...

Saribash: However...

Thomas: What is it, Saribash?

Saribash: Thomas, if youre willing Id like you and your men to stay in the
          country.

Rocky: Whys that?

Saribash: Ive decided to face Ven. I cannot stand by and see him wound this
          country any longer. Thats why Id like your help. Of course, youd
          be compensated...

Amia: Are you kidding...our lives arent to be bought and sold. Theres no
      way Id agree to that!!

Thomas: I understand, Saribash.

Amia: Thomas!!

Thomas: Roswell! Rocky! What are you two going to do?

Roswell: Hrm...why not. Ill stick around, boss man.

Rocky: Count me in too.

Thomas: Ash?

Ash: I...even if I stayed in this country, theres nothing I could do.

Thomas: You feel the same way?

Joyce: Yeah...

Thomas: So its decided then, Saribash. Us army grunts will stick around with
        you.

Saribash: Thanks, Thomas.

Thomas: No need to thank me. More importantly, can we get these three safely
        to the coast?

Saribash: Yeah, Ill leave that to you.

Thomas: Well then, lets get ready to go.

(Upon leaving the area)

Saribash: Are you ready to go?

(Select YES)

Saribash: Well then, take care.

Ash: We owe you one.

Saribash: Forget it, Im the one who should be thanking you.

Amia: Whos going to show us the way?

Saribash: One of my wanzer pilots and Lila will do it.

Joyce: Lila!?

Saribash: Yeah, shes ridden wanzers since she was a little girl. Shes no
          novice.

Lila: Well then everyone, let us depart.

FOREST NEAR RIMIAN BASE:

Lisa: Have you been able to establish contact, Sayuri?

Sayuri: Yep. Two MDF wanzers and two GDF choppers are standing by. Which do
        you want?

Lisa: Both.

Sayuri: Both!?

Lisa: Is that a problem?

Sayuri: No...just, the GDF and MDF have their rivalries...

Lisa: Theyre all professionals. In battle, theyre required to cooperate.

Sayuri: Got it. Ill ask for both.

Lisa: Oh, and dont forget the sling helicopters for us.

Sayuri: Right, no worries.

(Upon leaving the area)

Sayuri: Ready to leave?

(Select YES)

Sayuri: The sling helis should be here any minute. Lets head for the meeting

O.C.U. PRISONER RESCUE OPERATIONS HQ:

Operator Larry: How many prisoners were there?

Lisa: 23 in all, including casualties that is.

Operator Larry: I see. Thats better than the other units managed to pull in.
                Ill update the records.

Sayuri: Are we going back to Rimian after this?

Lisa: No, first well report to Colonel Hordman, and then question the
      prisoners.
	
(Move to Operations HQ)

Lisa: Ahh!

Man: Sorry. Didnt mean to run into you.

Lisa: Its fine. This tent is really cramped.

Man: Im in a hurry. Goodbye.

Sayuri: Whos that?

Lisa: Hm, no one Ive seen before.

Hordman: Good job out there, Captain. This has brought up morale amongst the
         men.

Lisa: What of the other rescue units?

Hordman: Theyre rescuing prisoners captured from other garrisons. Those
         rescued are taken to the Monto, an aircraft carrier we have anchored
         far off the coast.

Niceguy Kevin: The coup detat forces have manged to bring most of the
               Alordeshi military under their control already.

Cool Hawk: The closest town to here is Daukandei to the West.

Clever Sam: It seems the coup forces have Alordeshs top politicians and
            military staff confined in the capital.

Operator Ran: Please take this, Captain. Its the main rescue mission data.
              Enter this password under O.C.U. Alordesh on the network to
              access it.

(Move to the Equipment Booth)

Mechanic: Hey there, Captain. Everything work out alright?

Lisa: Well enough. Im here to restock on weapons and parts.

Mechanic: Well then, show me your card. You must have been raking in the
          points.

Lisa: Naturally. Weve just come from a battle.

Mechanic: Its a strange system though, aint it? Soldiers results in battle
          being recorded and exchanged for equipment.

Lisa: Its proof that the O.C.U. has gotten soft. Well anyhow, the points can
      be used as cash, so its a living for soldiers like us.

Mechanic: Ive determined your balance. Spend away.

(Ask for combat tips from the Mechanic)

Mechanic: You can fire at a heli or plane with a machine gun or rifle, but of
          course weapons that let off a big boom are best for hitting them.

(Move to the Tent)

Lisa: Who are you!?

Griff: W-wait, Im not up to anything funny!

Lisa: Youre one of the soldiers we saved. What do you want?

Griff: You said you had some questions for me, so...

Lisa: Ah, so you took the initiative. Sorry about that. Im a captain with
      the O.C.U. GDF 2nd Intelligence Division. You can call me Lisa. This
      is my adjutant, Sayuri.

Griff: Intelligence?

Lisa: I have some questions for you about Rimian.

Lisa: Did you see any unfamiliar containers in storage at Rimian?

Griff: Containers? Hrmph, beats me.

Sayuri: What about in a cargo heli or on a truck?

Griff: Nah...first Ven, then you guys...whats going on here?

Lisa: Ven!? The coup leader?

Griff: Yeah, he asked me those same questions.

Lisa: ...thats enough Griff. I have no further questions.

Griff: Okay got it. Hey...

Lisa: Do not mention our conversation to anyone. Youll be sent to the Monto
      in a few days, then repatriated. You have no choice in the matter...

Griff: Hey, wait a second!

Lisa: Any other information is highly classified. Questions will not be
      permitted. Now, return to your barracks.

Griff: ...Alright then.

Sayuri: So Vens looking for it too...what could that mean? Wasnt our
        mission to retrieve the stolen equipment from the coup forces?

Lisa: There must have been a SNAFU with the intelligence somewhere.

Sayuri: So, where do we go from here?

Lisa: We need more info. Lets separate our operations from the prisoner
      rescue forces.

Sayuri: I have a contact in Daukandei. Lets head over there.

Lisa: Understood. Well then, lets obtain permission from Colonel Hordman.

(Return to Operations HQ)

Lisa: Oh?

Man: Heh, I see we meet again. Sorry, but I have to be on my way.

(Talk to Hordman)

Hordman: Separate operations? What exactly do you have in mind?

Lisa: Our orders are to prioritize intelligence over rescue operations.

Hordman: But...

Lisa: Please lodge any protests you might have with General Chang-Jang of the
      Intelligence Division.

Hordman: Hmph...I understand. You have my permission to proceed with your
         separate operations, Captain.

Lisa: Thank you for your cooperation and support, Colonel.

Hordman: Between you and that man...just who the hell do you think I am!?

Lisa: That man?

Hordman: Yeah, the man who just left the tent. It seems hell be leaving here
         soon as well. He came in here and waved some permission papers from
         the Ministry of Defense in my face.

Sayuri: Who is that guy?

Hordman: All I know is that the Ministry of Defense sent him over here
         claiming he was a prisoner rescue specialist. Hes not one of your
         friends?

Lisa: ...

(Upon leaving the Operations HQ)

Lisa: How long will it take for us to get to Daukandei?

Sayuri: Its not that far, but if we leave now I think itll be night by the
        time we arrive.

Lisa: Well depart as soon as were done preparing our wanzers.

(Return to the Equipment Booth)

Griff: Captain!

Lisa: Oh, Sergeant? What are you doing here?

Griff: Three of my squad mates were able to escape Rimian Base during the
       battle there. Since they dont seem to have arrived here, they still
       might be out theresomewhere. Im begging you, let me come with you
       and look for them!

Sayuri: But, you dont even know where to start, do you? Its useless to
        search like that.

Griff: Ash is my best friend, Im begging you.

Lisa: Those three squad mates were assigned to Rimian Base, right?

Griff: Yeah.

Lisa: ...Alright, come along then.

Sayuri: Lisa!!

Lisa: However, you will follow our orders and assist in our operations.
      Is that understood?

Griff: Yes, maam.

Lisa: Go talk to the old mechanic and get him to provide you with a spare
      wanzer.

Sayuri: Seriously, Lisa?

Lisa: Seriously. Hop to it.

Sayuri: Fine! Fine I got it already!

(Talk to the Mechanic)

Mechanic: A spare wanzer? I dont know if I have anything in such a hurry.

Sayuri: Anything youve got would be fine.

Mechanic: Well shucks. If youre just looking for any old thing, Ive got you
          covered. But, it dont have no weapons.

Sayuri: Thats fine, thanks. I owe you one.

Mechanic: Youre that Captains lackey, eh? My condolences.

Lisa: What did you say?

Mechanic: Oh, nothing nothing...here ya go, a full Zora set. It aint much,
          but itll have to do.

(Upon leaving the area)

Sayuri: Is it time to leave already?

(Select YES)

Sayuri: Alright, lets go.

Griff: ...Captain?

Lisa: If youre not one for formalities you can call me Lisa. What is it?

Griff: The container youre searching for...

Lisa: I cant tell you anything about that.

Griff: Yeah, top secret right? However, I was assigned to that base. If you
       give me a detailed description, I might be able to remember something.

Lisa: ...Alright, Ill tell you.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DAUKANDEI:

Sayuri: Whew, we finally got here and its the middle of the night. Just like
        I expected.

Lisa: So, where is this contact of yours, Sayuri?

Sayuri: At the arena. Works as a fighter there.

Griff: An arena fighter? Pretty conspicuous for an intelligence operator.

Sayuri: What can I say? My contact is such a show-off.

Lisa: Lets go. If we dont hurry, the arena will be closed.

(Move to the Bar)

Bartender: This is just between you and me, but Mr. Labra is pretty popular
           with us Alordeshis. The O.C.U. Central Parliament...not so much.

Lonely Martin: Hey there ladies, care to come over here and have a drink
               with me?

Sayuri: Get outta here, you creep!!

Lonely Martin: What!?

Lisa: Calm down Sayuri! Im sorry, shes still a child. Please forgive her
      impertinence. By the way, could you tell me if there are any wanzer
      parts stores in this town?

Lonely Martin: What are you talking about?  Its not like you can just walk
               into a store and ask the clerk for wanzer parts.

Lisa: But since theres an arena here, there must be a place where the
      fighters get their parts.

Lonely Martin: ...Ive heard the mafia have their Agit in this town. The
               fighters from the arena get their parts there. But, I dont
               know where the Agit is, honestly.

Lisa: I see. Thanks. 

Lonely Martin: You two arent having anything to drink?

Lisa: As a rule, I dont drink with strangers.

Wistful Nick: Its best not to think about crossing the border and escaping
              this country. No matter who you are, youll be found and killed.

Good Time Rosanna: Those three over there might be wearing O.C.U. fatigues,
                   but theyre actually mercenaries on the mafia payroll.

One-Track Mind Elena: I dont have nothing to do with the revolution. As long
                      as Im drinking good booze, you wont hear no complaints
                      from me.

(Talk to Thomas)

Lisa: You have a minute?

Thomas: What do you want? Im busy, just hang on a minute... Alright! Ive got
        it! A straight flush!

Roswell: B-boss, I dont have that. Man, I had a full house too...

Thomas: Well, you gotta consider my skills at this game.

Roswell: Well, that decides it anyhow...

Thomas: Come on, lets have another go!

Lisa: ...Hopeless. Lets go.

Thomas: You wont beat me, not in a hundred years!

Roswell: Shit, o-one more time!

(Attempt to leave the Bar)

Man: W-wait up!

Lisa: ?

Man: Y-you're Lisa, right? With the O.C.U. Military Intelligence?

Lisa: !!

Man: I-it's alright. I'm not your enemy. I've got something to tell you
     though.

Lisa: Something to tell me?

Man: I don't have time to tell you now. I've got to run...input HUFFMAN into
     the O.C.U. Alordesh database.

Lisa: H-hey you! Wait!!

Man: HUFFMAN, got it? I-I'll contact you again later.

(after the man leaves)

Sayuri: He ran off. Should we chase him?

Lisa: ...let's forget it. The fact he knows my identity is concerning, but
      he didn't seem dangerous.

Forum regarding the Sakata Industries Incident:

2092:
Article taken from Freedom Citys (Huffman Island) "Daily Freedom" front
page.

"The shocking hidden truth about the recently ended 2nd Huffman Conflict has
been revealed.

According to reporter Frederick Lancaster, who has been on assignment for the
entire half year duration of the conflict, the 2nd Huffman Conflict was not 
a border dispute between the O.C.U. and U.S.N., but rather was engineered by
both countries, along with the Peace Mediation Organizations sponsoring
country  The Republic of Zaftra, and O.C.U. Japans Sakata Industries.
Including Zaftra, the three countries were developing computer technology
based on the use of the human brain in cooperation with Sakata Industries,
and incited the 2nd Huffman Conflict for the purposes of field testing this
new technology.

Mr. Lancaster has a wealth of evidence to support his claims, and it is
expected that further accusations against the guilty parties in this affair
will soon come to light. (Article continued on page 2)"

Sayuri: Lisa! This...

Lisa: ...

2092:
Following that, the article was published by news outlets across the globe,
and after the publication of Lancasters book "Sovereign Islands" calls for
an investigation into the truth became widespread.

2094:
The O.C.U. and U.S.N. admitted their involvement in the Sakata Industries
Incident. Sakata Industries itself became insolvent and was acquired by
Iguchi. Zaftra refused to admit involvement, but its President at the time
resigned. Since then the memory of the neural weapons used during this war
have become etched in the global publics memory.

Sayuri: The Sakata Industries Incident...

Lisa: What did he want to tell me?

(Check code requested. If OCILIPY is entered.)

Sakata Industries wanzer  Raven
Model name unknown.

Height: 7.7 m
Width: 3.2 m
Weight: 9.8 t

Heavyweight wanzer developed in association with the Zaftran Republics
Demitri Inc. Although the Raven complies with the international MULS-P
standard, its parts are approximately 1.4 times the size of that of an
average wanzer, and it is clear that the designers did not intend for its
parts to be interchangeable with those of other wanzers. The Ravens standout
characteristic is that it is typically equipped with a Sakata Industries BD
Series computer which is based on technology that utilizes the human brain
as its processor.

Four Raven models were produced, including the initial prototype model, and
all of them were field tested during the 2nd Huffman Conflict. It is believed
that the wanzers test pilots were Zaftran, but there is no proof to confirm
this speculation. It was stated that all produced Raven models were destroyed
either in battle or in testing accidents.

However in 2099, the O.C.U. Military ascertained that the U.S.N. is in
possession of the final Raven model. It does not appear that this Raven is
equipped either with its standard weapons loadout or BD computer, but it is
thought that this secret model has played a significant role in the
advancement of U.S.N. wanzer technology.

Lisa: An existing Raven...?

Sayuri: Even having read this, I still don't have a clue what that man wanted
	with us.

Computer: You've got mail. To: Lisa. From: Unknown. Opening file.

Sayuri: An e-mail? From that man?

Lisa: Probably...

Computer: "I want you to come to the bar in Dhaka on June 24th. I'm waiting."

Sayuri: Still keeping his cards close to his chest, huh?

(Move to the Arena)

Eager Teddy: Strong fighters are treated like heroes in this town. Maybe I
             should become one too.

Solemn Carl: Sigh...when I fight, its as though Im remembering something
             long lost...sigh...

Tired Out Harry: Man, you just cant figure things out from the data alone.
                 Here you, have this, its the password to see the data on
                 pilots entered in the Arena. Me? Im going home, so I
                 dont need it no more.

Fangirl Ann: The champion of this arena is a mystery man! He never takes off
             his helmet during a fight! Hardly anyone knows his true face!

Fighting Man Enthusiast Dorothy: Men are only truly alive in battle. I just
                                 cant stand a man who has forgotten how to
                                 fight!

(Move to the Arena Management Room)

Sayuri: Erm, I want to meet the champ...

Arena Manager: The champ!? No way, no how! No fans allowed.

Sayuri: Im no fan! Im a friend!

Arena Manager: Thats just BS. Now, get goin!

Sayuri: H-heyy!

Lisa: Looks like we wont be getting in...what should we do? Wait until the
      matches are over?

Sayuri: No way! Once the matches are over my contact will head home. Itll be
        too hard to catch the champ after that.

Lisa: Well then, what should we do...

Sayuri: Simple. Ill challenge the champ.

Lisa: W-wait a minute, Sayuri!

Griff: Shes already gone...

Lisa: Christ...

(Participate in the Arena)

Sayuri: We need at least five victories to fight the champ.

Lisa: What!? Why!?

Sayuri: Its the rules.

Lisa: Give me a break!!

Sayuri: Its not going to help getting angry at me...

(Once Sayuri has won four matches in the arena)

Sayuri: If we win this next match, we get to fight the champ. Lets give it
        our best!

(Once Sayuri has won five matches in the arena)

Sayuri: Whew, we can finally fight the champ.

(If Sayuri loses)

Sayuri: Owowowow...just as strong as ever...

(If Sayuri wins)

Champ: Sayuri!? So, its been you all this time!?

Sayuri: Cordy!

Cordy: Hey, its been a while! Since Belgrade, right?

Sayuri: Yeah, thats about right.

Cordy: Anyhow, youve sure gotten strong since then! A year ago, you could
       barely pilot a wanzer.

Griff: So, Cordys a woman...?

Lisa: I didnt know up until now either.

Cordy: Who the hell are you guys?

Sayuri: Ill introduce you. This woman is my superior  Lisa, then we have a
        wanzer pilot from the Marines  Griff.

Cordy: So, I take it youre not here as a tourist.

Lisa: Thats right, Cordy.

Cordy: I see. Lets get outta here and head for the bar.

(Move to the Bar)

Cordy: Todays on me.

Sayuri: Sorry to jump to the point, but can we talk business?

Cordy: Heh, I thought someone would come talk to me with the coup on. But, I
       never thought itd be you.

Lisa: Were looking for a container that disappeared from Rimian Base.

Cordy: Whats in it?

Lisa: I cant tell you.

Cordy: Youre saying you dont trust me?

Lisa: If you knew what was in it, youd be put in danger.

Cordy: Ha! Is there anyone in my line of work who isnt in danger? If youre
       not gonna let me in on this info, I wont be helping you.

Sayuri: Come on Lisa, lets tell her. Shes reliable.

Lisa: ...Alright...theres some electronic equipment in the container. Its
      called "Ring Invasion Control Device."

Griff: What the hell is that?

Cordy: A control device for unmanned recon...vehicles?

Sayuri: Well, more or less. Right, Lisa?

Lisa: Er, yeah...

Cordy: I see...well Lisa, Im sorry but I dont know anything about that
       device. Ill help you out until you find it though.

Lisa: Thanks, Cordy.

Cordy: In which case, we should get going.

Sayuri: Where to?

Cordy: To the south west part of town, where the prisoner detainment facility
       and coup army HQ is. We ought to be able to find some info about this
       device there.

Lisa: Alright, lets head out then. And...

Cordy: I know, you need parts right? Ill let you know where the mafias
       Agit is.

Lisa: Hm, you really are reliable.

(Move to the Agit)

Guard: Whos there!?

Cordy: Its me.

Guard: Ah, Cordy...you make a killing today?

Cordy: Ah, you know how it is. Anyhow, Im here about my friends and their
       wanzers. Could you help them out with getting some parts?

Guard: If theyre your friends its fine, but it aint free.

Lisa: How about this?

Guard: Isnt that an O.C.U. clip card!? Are you with the O.C.U. military!?

Lisa: Dont get me wrong, this is a forgery. Itll still get me O.C.U. cash
      though.

Guard: You dont say...

Lisa: How about it? Your boss hates the O.C.U., so I figure he wouldnt
      mind taking a bit of their cash under the counter...

Guard: ...Yeah hell, why not? The weapons are downstairs.

(Move to the Reception Room)

Guard: The business is downstairs, not in here!

(Move to the Underground Warehouse)

Cordy: That was quite the bluff back there, Lisa.

Lisa: Well, it was half true. But, I was bit frightened too.

Cordy: Haha, I like you.

(Ask for combat tips from the Shop Hand)

Shop Hand: You can load down your wanzer with weapons and items to turn it
           into a powerhouse, but youll get more speed the lighter it is.

Development Head Lupo: Hey, youre the guys who took down the champ back at
            the arena right?

Lisa: Who are you?

Development Head Lupo: My apologies, heres my card.

Lisa: XX Weapons Manufacturing...Weapons Development Division 1 Head Lupo...
      What do you want with us?

Development Head Lupo: My company has just developed a new set of wanzer
                       parts, and Id like to field test the prototype.

Lisa: Well...?

Development Head Lupo: Well yes, I was thinking that since you defeated the
                       champion, pilots of your skill level would be able to
                       bring out the maximum potential of this prototype.

Sayuri: Hmm.

Development Head Lupo: ...Hrm? Now that I look at you, youre all women arent
                       you?

Sayuri: What was that!? Are you going to discriminate against us just because
        were women?

Development Head Lupo: Oh my, a team with a young girl like this took down
                       the champion?

Cordy: Yeah, thats right. Too bad, huh?

Development Head Lupo: H-huh? C-could you be, Cordy? My apologies!

Cordy: Tell me more about this set.

Development Head Lupo: Y-yes, if you use this set in battle and win, itll be
            proof of its quality, and good advertising for us, yes?

Cordy: Well be getting compensated for this, right?

Development Head Lupo: Y-yes, of course. You will. If you manage to get
                       through a battle without having any parts destroyed, I
                       will compensate you to the tune of 1000.

Cordy: What? One thousand!?

Development Head Lupo: Yes, however for each part destroyed we will subtract
                       250 from that total...

Cordy: Alright, will you leave it to me then?

Development Head Lupo: Yes, yes, exactly as I wanted...

Cordy: Alright, lets head to the arena and get to fighting!

Development Head Lupo: W-wait!

Cordy: What?

Development Head Lupo: The arena is no good. It wont make for good enough
                       data. We need a fight that will bring out the wanzers
                       maximum capacity.  Thatll be what I need for 
                       development purposes after all. So, the arena is out.

Cordy: So?

Development Head Lupo: It has to be a real battle.

Cordy: A real battle?

Development Head Lupo: Yes, a real battle. However, although the wanzer was
                       able to stand up to our testing, there is some concern
                       about how it will handle the extremes of real combat...

Cordy: Im out! Im not gonna throw away my life for some cheap experiment.

Development Head Lupo: Sigh, I see...a woman couldnt be trusted to do this
                       after all...maybe Ill look for a tougher man at the
                       arena...

Lisa: Whats wrong, Sayuri? Lets go.

Sayuri: ...Ill do it, Ill take up your offer!

Cordy: What, why?

Sayuri: I wont take this! Hey, you chauvinist bastard! Get back here you!!

Development Head Lupo: Y-yes? You are referring to me?

Sayuri: Ill take up your offer!

Lisa: Oh, Sayuri...that girl is so stubborn...

Cordy: Hey now, Sayuri. Calm down and think this through.

Sayuri: Shut up!

Lisa: Once shes set her mind on to something, theres no turning back.

Cordy: Same as always I see...

Sayuri: Ill use that set in battle for you!

Lisa: Come on, Sayuri, think about this. Do you really want to take up
      his request?

(Select YES)

Sayuri: Of course! Hey you! Give me the set!

Development Head Lupo: Y-yes.

Sayuri: Alright, after Im done with this on the battlefield I should come
        back to see you right!?

Development Head Lupo: Y-yes, thats right. If you agree to my request, Ill
                       have you sign these papers...

Sayuri: ...Alright! Its all okay then, right!?

Development Head Lupo: Y-yes, its okay. I have one demand for you, be sure
                       to equip this. After you have completed one battle,
                       return here with the data. I will be waiting here.

Sayuri: Alright everyone, lets move out!! Hrm? Whats the matter?

Lisa: Sigh...still a child I see...

Cordy: Same as always...

Development Head Lupo: Im sorry to remind you, but please ensure to equip
                       all the parts: body, right arm, left arm, and legs.
                       Theyre labelled prototype.

(Upon leaving the area)

Sayuri: Well, should we get going?

(Select YES)

Lisa: Yes, well leave now. How long do you think itll take to get to the
      detainment facility?

Cordy: Hrm...its quite a ways. If we leave now, well probably arrive
       tomorrow morning...

Lisa: Daylight reconnaissance...well, I guess it cant be helped.

DAUKANDEI:

Lisa: It seems no one is seriously injured.

Griff: Yeah, but we cant just have them tag along with us wherever we go.

Lisa: Well take them to the Prisoner Rescue Operations HQ. But first,
      interrogation.

Cordy: Lets go to the arena. No one will bother us there.

(Move to the Arena)

Cordy: Stay out of the spare room.

Arena Manager: Cordy! What have you been up to? Everyone was in an uproar
               when the champ disappeared.

Cordy: Sorry, manager. Ill be out of here soon on other business.

Arena Manager: What other business!?

Cordy: The business Ill be borrowing the spare room for.

Arena Manager: Cordy!

(Move to the Spare Room)

Lisa: I will be questioning you now as a commissioned officer of Military
      Intelligence. Is that alright?

O.C.U. Soldier: Ill tell you whatever I can.

Lisa: What base were you four assigned to?

O.C.U. Soldier: Deean A.F.B.

Lisa: Really?

O.C.U. Soldier: What if Im lying?

Griff: Hes not lying, he wasnt at Rimian.

Lisa: There werent any prisoners from Rimian at the detainment facility?

O.C.U. Soldier: I dont know. I had no way of contacting anyone in other
                rooms.

Lisa: Were you interrogated there?

O.C.U. Soldier: Yeah, the boss of the coup detat forces...I forget his name.
                That guy, I dont know why but he asked me about Rimian Base.
                "Did you have any friends at Rimian?" "Had you heard any
                rumors about Rimian?" He asked me those kinds of questions.

Lisa: What did you tell him?

O.C.U. Soldier: I didnt know anyone at Rimian, so I didnt have anything to
                tell him.

Lisa: I see. Wait here until were ready to take you to HQ.

Sayuri: Are you done, Lisa?

Lisa: Yes, he wasnt at Rimian. He has nothing to tell us.

Griff: Hey, is this device youre looking for really that important? Its
       just a machine for controlling unmanned recon, right?

Lisa: A man like you could never understand it...

Griff: ...

Lisa: What?

Griff: You sure get cold whenever the topic of this device comes up.

Lisa: ...

(Move to the Underground Warehouse)

Development Head Lupo: So, it seems youve just come back from battle...how
                       did my companys prototype perform in a real battle?
                       Well then, what about damage to the parts...? Ho ho...
                       no parts destroyed. Not bad at all. So, your
                       compensation for the parts durability test is
                       250x4=1000. Well, thats quite something. How many
                       enemies were you able to destroy? According to this
                       record...Ho, quite a few I see. You get 800 for the
                       offensive power test. If anything else comes up Ill
                       let you know.

(Upon leaving the area)

Sayuri: Should we head back to Operations HQ?

(Select YES)

Lisa: Yes, lets take those we rescued back to HQ. There might be some new
      info for us back at HQ as well.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

O.C.U. PRISONER RESCUE OPERATIONS HQ

Lisa: Weve got a new group of rescued personnel. How long until the next
      transport out?

Operator Larry: The next one is going out tomorrow. I hear theres going to
                be a large scale rescue operation tomorrow too. Well be
                rescuing Alordeshi politicians held in the capital, along
                with the O.C.U. ambassador...

Lisa: Attacking the capital!? Sayuri! Lets go!!

Sayuri: Go? Go where?

Lisa: To the command office. We have to stop Colonel Hordmans operation.

Sayuri: What should we do with the people we rescued?

Griff: Leave them to me. Ill take them to their rooms.

(Go to the Command Room)

Lisa: Colonel Hordman!

Hordman: Oh, Captain. I see youre back.

Lisa: I heard youre going to attack the capital.

Hordman: I organized the operation. Well be rescuing the politicians and the
         O.C.U. ambassador held in Dhaka. Well be rescuing General Gwianda
         as well.

Lisa: I cannot agree with that.

Hordman: Dont worry. Reinforcements from the O.C.U. have already arrived.

Lisa: Theres a high chance of failure for this operation...

Hordman: I am the commander of this operation. I will be making the decisions
         about rescue operations.

Lisa: ...

Hordman: Ill have you join the operation as well. Ive already received
         permission from General Chang-Jang, Captain.

Lisa: ...Understood.

Nice Guy Kevin: The VIPs are being held in the O.C.U. Central Embassy in the
                capital.

Cool Hawk: It seems the mafia launched an attack against the capital. We dont
           know what the objective was though...

Clever Sam: Our aircraft carrier is still anchored off the coast. Itll leave
            as soon as the next batch of rescued prisoners is on board.

(Talk to the Man)

Lisa: You! Why didnt you stop the Colonel?

Man: Im not sure what youre saying.

Lisa: Youre a rescue operations expert, right? If thats true, you ought to
      be able to see how unlikely this operation is to succeed.

Man: Ive succeeded in tougher operations than this. I dont know who you
     are, but Im not about to take instructions from someone whos never
     been through a real war.

Lisa: ...

Man: Well then, Captain, see you in the capital.

(Talk to Operator Ran)

Lisa: Has any new information come in?

Operator Ran: Lets see, there has been some data about the coup forces in
              Dhaka that has come in from our surveillance satellite. Shall
              I give you the password?

Lisa: Yes, please.

(Upon leaving the Command Room)

Griff: I managed to get the rescued prisoners set up...whats going on?

Sayuri: We couldnt stop that stupid Colonel from attacking the capital. On
        top of that, we have to participate in the operation...

Griff: Huh...

Cordy: So, should we skip town?

Lisa: No, an order is an order...well participate in the operation.

Sayuri: Lisa...

Lisa: Theres still time until daybreak. Lets rest until then.

(Move to the Tent)

Sayuri: Lisa? Are you ready to sleep?  

(Select YES)

Lisa: Yeah, lets get some rest.

June 16, 2102 - 4:00 AM

Hordman: Our main force will now begin moving out towards the capital. We
         will most likely arrive around noon, and subsequently rendezvous
         with the already departed recon units, after which we will begin
         combat operations. Godspeed.

Griff: Are we moving out right away too?

Sayuri: We should check our equipment first.

(Move to the Shop)

Mechanic: Heheh, hey there. The item you got in battle back there arrived.
          Its this Goldias Missile Launcher.

Mechanic: It seems Hordmans units wanzers were surrounded and destroyed in
          the urban battle just now. If youre serious about fighting, youd
          better have the latest equipment.

(Talk to Seals)

Lisa: Would it be alright for me to talk to the rescued prisoners?

Seals: Yeah, but use discretion. They seem mostly to be Alordeshi VIPs.

(Talk to Alordeshi Prime Minister)

Alordeshi Prime Minister: Thanks so much for saving me.

Lisa: Mr. Prime Minister, I dont see General Gwianda...

Alordeshi Prime Minister: I was imprisoned together with him for a while, but
                          he was taken off by Lieutenant Colonel Mackarge. I
                          havent see General Gwianda since then.

Lisa: I see...

(Talk to O.C.U. Ambassador)

O.C.U. Ambassador: I never! What the hell is going on!? Why was it necessary
                   to take ME hostage! And I never expected to be hauled off
                   by a rescue operation like THIS! Call the operations
                   commander! I wish to lodge a formal complaint!

Lisa: The commander is not here, Mr. Ambassador. Furthermore, you should
      remember that we are not out of Alordesh yet.

O.C.U. Ambassador: Do you intend to threaten ME? Pshaw! THIS is why I cant
                   stand soldiers!

(Return to guard duty)

Sayuri: Should we go back to guarding the transport?

Roswell: Would you care for some coffee?

Lisa: I dont need any bloody coffee!! What I need, is to know what you
      intend to do with us. Will you tell me that?

Thomas: We could rob you blind and run off. But, you O.C.U. soldiers might
        know something about the Revolutionary Army. Come with us.

Lisa: You men, youre O.C.U. Military, arent you?

Thomas: Us?

Lisa: Dont play dumb. Your slang, the way you fight...its a bit strange,
      but youre O.C.U. GDF, if Im not mistaken.

Thomas: Wow, youre a sharp one missy. Us three were O.C.U. up until
        yesterday. But now, were living on the Mafias coin. In order to
        survive, you see.

Sayuri: It seems there are no patriots among you!

Thomas: Listen girly, the O.C.U. is made up of ten-odd countries. Just which
        one are we supposed to be patriotic towards?

Sayuri: Er, thats...

Lisa: Thats enough Sayuri. Were not here to discuss the existential 
      character of the O.C.U. Tell me, where do you plan on taking us?

Thomas: To the mafias office.

Cordy: The Agit, huh?

Thomas: Gwahaha. Well, whatever you wanna call it. Well then, can we get a
        move on?

(Upon leaving the area)

Thomas: You ready there, girlies?  

(Select YES)

Lisa: Are you going to give us our wanzers back?

Thomas: Yeah, but well be holding your weapons for safekeeping. If I dont
        see those arms empty, Ill kill ya.

Lisa: Why thank you.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DAUKANDEI:

(Move to the Bar)

Bartender: This is just between you and me, but I heard that the prisoners in
           the capital were rescued just a while ago. Seems they managed to
           rescue the Alordeshi Prime Minister and O.C.U. Ambassador.

Lonely Martin: Mumble...Zzzzzz

Good Time Rosanna: Seems the champ Cordy has disappear from the arena. Wonder
                   who the next champll be.

(Move to the Arena)

Penniless Butch: Yo, Ive got the password to the Diable Avionics forum.
                 Its yours for 2000. How about it? Im flat broke, so help
                 a guy out and buy it will ya!?

Fangirl Ann: The arena without Cordy is like a milk tea without the milk...
             Sigh...

(Move to the Agit)

Guard: Thomas! Where have you been!?

Thomas: Revolutionary hunting. I bagged some prisoners, too.

Guard: They with the Revolutionary Army?

Cordy: Nah.

Guard: Cordy!! And you guys...!!

Lisa: Sorry to have mislead you. But youll find the card clears, so dont
      worry.

Thomas: I dont know what thats about...but whatever. Anyhow, wheres
        Saribash?

Guard: The boss went to Diaraba yesterday.

Thomas: What!? Without contacting us?

Guard: Arent you the ones who cut radio contact!? The boss went to collect
       the weapons hes got stored in Diaraba.

Thomas: What sort of weapons?

Guard: The boss left a message for you saying to follow him to Diaraba.

Guard: The boss is waiting in Diaraba. Get over there.

(Move to the Reception Room)

Thomas: Yep. No one here...

(Move to the Underground Warehouse)

Warehouse Worker: Hey there, heres the password for Diable Avionics. Hope
                  you find it useful.

(Upon leaving the Agit)

Thomas: Later, were off to Diaraba.

Sayuri: What about us!?

Thomas: Prisoners are a real burden. You can do whatever you like.

Griff: We can...do whatever we like...huh.

Thomas: I said you can go. Now get out of here before I change my mind.

Lisa: Actually, would you mind if we tag along?

Thomas: Whaat? Why would you do that?

Lisa: I want info that your boss has. Well trade you whatever information we
      have about the Revolutionary Army. If you give us our weapons back we
      could be your guards instead of your prisoners too.

Thomas: Youre asking me to trust you guys?

Lisa: Its a long way to Diaraba. If you ran into the Revolutionary Army along
      the way, youd have a hard time handling them.

Thomas: ...interesting. I like it! What the hell, Ill trust you. But if you
        think you can take us down, even with your weapons back, youve got
        another thing coming.

(Upon leaving the area)

      home? Its already been three days...

Joyce: ...

Amia: You must think so too, right, Ash?

Ash: ...

Amia: Man, you guys are downers! Weve been saved. Shouldnt you be a bit
      happier?

Ash: Yeah...

(Leave the Cabin)

Amia: Ash, where you going?

Ash: Weve got nothing to do here, so I thought Id go for a walk around
     the ship. You want to come too Amia?

Amia: Im alright, Ive had my fill of walking.

Ash: Right.

(Move to the Hallway)

Marine Marco: Got something on your mind?

Ash: Nah, just out of a walk.

Marine Marco: Ah. Thats right, you were from Rimian Base right?

Ash: Whats it to you?

Marine Marco: Another transport just got in. I heard it was carrying some
              guys from Rimian.

Ash: Where are they now!?

Marine Marco: Theyre in the hangar. Thats the only place that had enough
              room for all of em.

(Move to the Hangar)

Rescued Soldier Middle: Man, this is bullshit...just when weve been
                        rescued, we get shoved in this cramped little space.

Soldier Gallucci: I hear its because the Alordeshi PM is on board. Looks
                  like hes going into exile, huh?

Soldier Hart: The guys from Rimian? Theyre the ones sitting over there.

Sitting Soldier (MP): Ash? Holy shit its Ash! Hows it going? Are you
                      alright?

Ash: I should be asking you the same thing!

MP: Yeah, I was able to get out of the checkpoint just before it got blown
    to hell. But after that, I got taken prisoner along with Griff...

Ash: Griffs alive!?

MP: Yeah, after that me and Griff were saved by the O.C.U. but...

Ash: What?

MP: Griff, well he heard you were MIA and he...went back in to find you.

Ash: What the hell...

MP: H-hey, I tried to stop him! I swear!

Ash: Griff......he went back in...for me...

Man: Hey, mind if I butt in?

MP: Who the hell are you?

Man: You guys were stationed at Rimian, right?

MP: Yeah, what about it...

Man: You wouldnt happen to know anything about an unidentified cargo
     container being brought into there, would you?

MP: A container? Beats me.

Ash: Yeah...I dont remember anything in particular either.

Man: Really...sorry for butting in to your conversation. Im off. See you
     around.

MP: Strange, that one. Wearing a suit and fedora on a military ship...he
    cant be a soldier.

Ash: Yeah...

(Return to the Hallway)

Marine Marco: Man, even on duty this place is slack.

(Return to the Cabin)

Ash: Listen up you two, Griff is still alive out there.

Joyce: So thats whats been bothering you, Ash?

Ash: Griff was rescued by the O.C.U. Military but...he heard that I was
     still MIA...and...

Amia: What!?

Joyce: ...should we get going then, Ash?

Ash: Huh!?

Joyce: You came to ask us if we were up to going back in. If thats how
       you feel, Im in too.

Amia: Have you lost it, Joyce!? Were at sea! Its not like you can
      just walk over to Alordesh!

Joyce: Theres a way. Theres a VTOL float plane on deck. And Amia, I
       know you learned how to handle a transports stick back in the
       Air Force.

Amia: Huh, why me!? No way Im going! You guys go alone! Plus, theres
      no way you could go without flight clearance.

Joyce: Thats true, so...

Amia: Stop right there! Youre driving me nuts.

Ash: ...Amia, Im begging you.

Amia: Not you too, Ash...grrr, fine...FINE! Ill drop you guys off where
      ever you like, and then Im coming right back here!

Joyce: Yeah, you can tell the military we forced you into it.

Amia: Right, RIGHT! Ill make sure you guys go along with that story!

Joyce: Well then, its settled! Lets go, Ash! Lets go load up our
       wanzers into the transport in the hangar! Amia, you take care of
       the transport.

Amia: Well youre certainly cheery all of a sudden, Joyce.

Joyce: Really? Id say Im always handsome and charming.

(Return to the Hallway)

Marine Marco: Hey now, where are you bunch headed?

Joyce: Were out for a bit of a long walk.

Marine Marco: A long walk? What do ya mean by that?

Joyce: Ill let you think on that one.

(Upon leaving for the deck)

Joyce: You ready, Ash?

(Select YES)

Joyce: Alright, lets just make sure. We might not be coming back here after
       all.

(Move to the Agit)

Guard: Hey! You guys! Why the hell are you here!? Didnt you get out of the
       country?

Joyce: We found a bit of a reason to come back here.

Ash: Wed like to see Saribash.

Guard: The boss is in Diaraba, not here.

Joyce: You must be able to get some kind of message through to him.

Guard: No can do. Im being watched by the Revolutionary Army. Cant risk
       revealing the boss location. Sorry, but if you want to see the boss
       go talk to him in person in Diaraba.

Ash: What about Thomas and the others? 

Guard: They came by a while ago with some O.C.U. prisoners. Should be
       arriving in Diaraba right about now.

(Talk with the Shop Manager in the Underground Warehouse)

Shop Manager: Heres the password to Vynces website. I got it from a
              smuggler. All you need is that address to get in.

(Upon leaving the Agit)

Joyce: What should we do, Ash?

Ash: We need Saribashs help, so lets head for Diaraba.

Pike: Thatd be dangerous.

Amia: What do you mean?

Pike: Diaraba is pretty far away. With just 4 of us, theres a good chance
      we wouldnt make it.

Ash: If Diaraba is no good, well look for Griff on our own.

Pike: Well then, I guess Ill tag along.

Joyce: Just why the hell are you following us anyhow? Youre not here to save
       anyone, right?

Pike: Hey, dont worry about it. Ill fill you in eventually.

(Upon leaving the area)

Joyce: Well, should we get going?

(Select YES)

Pike: Yeah, theres a O.C.U. prisoner rescue operations HQ across the border
      to the East. Why dont we try to gather some information there?

Ash: But, the Revolutionary Army is watching the border.

Pike: The O.C.U. has taken care of most of them in that area. No worries.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

O.C.U. PRISONER RESCUE OPERATIONS HQ:

Ash: So this is where Griff was supposed to have been...

Joyce: Lets get to gathering that intelligence.

(Move to the Operations HQ)

Hordman: What is it? Are you a bunch of rescued prisoners?

Ash: No, were looking for one of the rescued prisoners. A corporal named
     Griff. Have you heard of him?

Hordman: Cant say I remember the name of each and every one of the prisoners
         weve rescued.

Pike: Is there anyone from Intelligence here, Colonel?

Hordman: Who the hell are you?

Pike: Im with the CIU.

Hordman: The CIU!? I dont remember calling you guys in...

Pike: No, you wouldnt, since it didnt happen. But about those officers from
      Intelligence...

Hordman: Ive got nothing to say to the goddamn CIU. Get out!

Pike: Well then, excuse me.

Nice Guy Kevin: Griff? ...Sorry, havent heard of him.

Cool Hawk: Itd be impossible to rescue all the captured O.C.U. soldiers from
           the Revolutionary Army. That is, without blowing the Revolutionary
           Army itself to hell.

Clever Sam: Were just about to launch a counter-offensive. Then well put an
            end to all this coup nonsense.

(Move to the Equipment Booth)

Mechanic: What do you guys want?  I havent seen ya around here before.

Pike: Wed like some wanzer parts.

Mechanic: This aint no store. I cant go giving parts to no one without a
          clip card...

Pike: Ive got one, see?

Mechanic: Whoa, you shocked me there. Just who the hell are you?

Pike: Does it really matter?

Mechanic: Heh, I guess not...

(Talk to the Mechanic)

Mechanic: Griff...? Ah! Yeah that guy was with Lisa!

Ash: You know him?

Mechanic: Yeah, I got him a wanzer cause Sayuri asked me to.

Ash: Where is he now?

Mechanic: Sorry man, I havent heard.

       think well find it right away.

Amia: Sheesh, lets get with it.

Pike: Well anyhow, it looks like well have do to some searching.

(Move to the Triangle Bar)

Bartender: The mafias agit? Sorry, my friend, I cant tell you about that.

Drunkard Snorken: Diarabas aaa, p-portt ysee...

Talkative Stalt: Even if the revolutionaries succeed and the country becomes
                 independent, if the people arent fundamentally changed we
                 wont have achieved real independence.

DNC Editor: Hey there fellows!! You arent interested in this country, right?
            Well thats bull! Its seriously bullshit! To not even be
            interested in the country youre living in! Heres a present for
            ya, the password to the DNC Editorial Database. If you enter this
            password on the DNC forum youll be able to learn all there is to
            know about this country!!

Friendly-looking Lala: Why not try checking out the Arena? Since you cant
                       even have a place like that without a mafia, you might
                       learn something there.

Drinking Jennifer: Why not have someone else give us independence? Doing that
                   kinda bothersome stuff yourself is a real pain in the neck.

(Move to the Arena)

Rowdy Jack: Huh? Saribashs agit? Listen bub, dont go talking about that
            kinda thing unless you want to get your face bashed in!

Nervous Grace: I dont know nothing about this agit thing. Ah, but yeah, 
               theres this arena fighter around here named Royd  he might
               know something. Theres a rumour he always buys Saribashs top
               grade stuff for his wanzer.

Battle-Hardened Milene: Pilots with real war experience are the strongest,
                        you know.

(Participate in the Arena with Amia and defeat Royd)

Royd: Fuck! You messed up my wanzer! Get out of there and fight me with your
      bare hands!

Amia: Are you really THE Royd Clive?

Royd: Whoo! So you like me eh? Well how about this girly, go on a date with
      me and Ill forget all about the wanzer!

Amia: Tell me where the mafias agit is and well have a deal.

Royd: What, thats all you want? Here, Ill show ya right away.

Joyce: Alright, looks like this guy is gonna help us out.

Royd: Huh!?

Pike: Well then, why dont you hurry up and show us the way?

Royd: A trick!? Shit!! Like hell Im gonna tell you now!

Amia: Hey now, would the great hero of Huffman Island - Royd Clive - break
      a promise made to a lady?

Royd: Ngh!

Joyce: Come on Royd, you dont want us telling everyone about this do ya?

Royd: A-alright, I got it already. Follow me.

(Move to the Port)

Royd: Well, this is it...what do you want to do here anyhow?

Amia: This is really where were supposed to have our date?

Joyce: If youre lying to us, were out of here.

Royd: What!? Just trust me for a second!! This is really it...sheesh.

(Move to the Agit from the Port)

Royd: Alright, this is it.

Ash: Youre sure?

Royd: Yeah.

Amia: Thanks, Royd. Now, Ill hold up my end of the bargain and we can
      sit down for at least a drink.

Joyce: But, its your treat...and youve gotta pay for us boys, as well.

Royd: Cmon, now! Give me a break! Christ!

Royd: Am I really that hard on the eyes?

Amia: You should learn not to come on so strong. And besides, Im just not
      that kind of girl.

(Move to Saribash's Office)

Lila: Joyce!

Joyce: Well Lila, I see youre as beautiful as always.

Lila: But why...you were supposed to have left the country.

Ash: Things change. Lila, wheres Saribash?

Lila: My father is working in the warehouse. Hes getting ready to fight
      the Revolutionary Army...

Amia: Can you show us to him, Lila?

Lila: Over here.

(Go to the Warehouse)

Saribash: Ash? Is that really you Ash?

Ash: Thats right, Saribash.

Saribash: What the hell are you doing here!? After I went through all
          that trouble to get you out!

Ash: Sorry, Saribash. Things change.

Saribash: Alright, I got it. Lets get out of here and head back to my
          office.

(Talk to the Warehouse Manager in the Warehouse)

Warehouse Manager: Here, Ill give you Iguchis address.

(Ask for combat tips from the Warehouse Manager)

Warehouse Manager: When buying parts, watch out for the light ones. That kind
                   of armor might look the same as any other, but its
                   vulnerable to piercing weapons like machine guns and
                   rifles. Anyhow, thats why theyre light, so pay
                   attention out there.

(Return to Saribashs Office)

Saribash: So, thats it? You guys...you came back here to look for
          this Griff guy?

Pike: Its quite the tale of woe, isnt it?

Saribash: Whos this guy?

Pike: You might say Im their patron.

Saribash: ...

Ash: Im begging you, help us out. Youre the only one in Alordesh we can
     rely on.

Saribash: Alright, Ill get some lodgings set up for you. But, were busy
          with preparing to take on the Revolutionary Army right now. I
          dont know if I can do much more for you...

Amia: The Revolutionary Army! Now that you mention, it we had a run in
      with them! Theyre headed for Diaraba.

Saribash: WHAT!? Why the hell didnt you tell me that earlier!? Weve
          gotta scramble!!

Pike: What about us?

Saribash: If youre on our side, I promise I wont do you wrong.

Ash: Understood.

Saribash: Well then, Ill put you straight to work. I just got a message from
          Thomas and his boys that theyve arrived in town. They dont know
          about this place, so Ill get you to go bring them back here.

Joyce: Where are they?

Saribash: They said theyd be waiting at the bar. Well, then Im headed back
          to work.

(Talk to Lila)

Lila: Father has gone back to work in the warehouse.

(Return to the Bar and talk to Thomas)

Joyce: Theres Thomas and his guys.

Thomas: Oi! Ash!? What in the hell are you...

Ash: Ill explain, so lets sit down.

Thomas: ...

Roswell: Thomas, this Griff that Ash is talking about...

Joyce: You know him?

Thomas: ...yeah.

Ash: Where!? Where is he!?

Thomas: Well you see, we took Griff and 3 other O.C.U. soldiers captive...

Rocky: Along the way we got into a fight with the Revolutionary Army, and
       those four got caught up in it too...

Ash: What!?

Thomas: Sorry...they didnt make it here with us...

Joyce: Shit! So you just ditched Griff and came here!?

Roswell: We didnt have any choice.

Rocky: Its just like Roswell said. Given the circumstances, there was no way
       we could save them...youve gotta understand, Ash.

Thomas: Griff and the others were probably taken to the Revolutionary Army
        HQ. When you go in to rescue Griff, well come along too so we can
        make it up to you. Forgive us, will ya?

Ash: Okay. In any case, lets head back to Saribashs place.

(Return to the Warehouse)

Saribash: ...alright, I see. The Revolutionary HQ is a big target for us.
          Well help you out.

Ash: Thanks, Saribash.

Saribash: But, this place is dangerous! Get what you need on a freighter and
          make for Bornea City.

Joyce: Is that safe?

Saribash: Theres nowhere safe in this country right now. But if we head out
          this way, itll reduce civilian casualties.

Thomas: Well help out with loading the cargo.

Saribash: Nah, you guys get your preparations done and guard the port. Ill
          be counting on you when it comes to crunch time.

Thomas: Gwahaha, leave it to us!

Saribash: Im heading back to my office. Let me know when youre done
          preparing.

(Return to Saribashs Office)

Saribash: All ready?

(Select YES)

Saribash: Alright, well be done loading soon, so about guard duty...

Guard: Boss! Weve got trouble! The Revolutionary Army is almost in town.

Saribash: What!? Shit! Thomas! Hurry up and get out there! I dont want a
          fight in the city so hit them by the port!

SPECIAL EVENT 09 - Ven's Past

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FREIGHTER:

Joyce: So these enemies, theyre headed upriver towards us?

Joyce: Weve got aircraft on the radar...probably choppers...

Thomas: Nope, those arent just choppers.

Joyce: How can you tell?

Roswell: Hmm, theyre going too fast to be choppers. Possibly...VTOL. Could
         be attack models.

Joyce: The Revolutionary Army has that kind of hardware?

Thomas: They must have stole them from O.C.U. bases. But, Im not sure how
        their pilots can fly them.

Joyce: So, well have to intercept them from the ships deck...

Thomas: Right, if we were to put all 7 units on deck we couldnt move.
        Lets use 4 at the most.

(Move to the Cargo Hold)

Ash: Rocky, are the wanzers all ready?

Rocky: Y-yeah Ash, theyre good to go... Got anti-air weapons equipped
       too...

Pike: Why are you so nervous all of a sudden?

Rocky: Its nothing... Just some pre-battle jitters is all...

(Talk to the Mechanic in the Cargo Hold)

Mechanic: Working for Saribash ain't easy, huh?

(Return to the Deck)

Thomas: The enemy is right on top of us! Are you ready? 

(Select YES)

Thomas: Alright, lets hit them from the deck!

MISSION 12 - Freighter

INTERMISSION 12							[IN12]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BORNEA:

Thomas: So, this is Bornea...

Ash: Is this your first time here?

Thomas: Hrm? Yeah. Ive only ever really been around the capital.

Saribash: Head over to the agit carefully. Weve got things to discuss about
          the next operation.

(Move to the Liquid Bar)

Bartender: I hear the Revolutionary Army invaded Diaraba... Hope nothing like
           that happens here.

Enduring Erik: Just when I finally get my Japanese work visa they shut down
               the border, and my plans are shot to hell.

Gung-ho Ted: I never thought thered be a revolution here. Who would have
             thought anyone would be motivated enough to get it going...

Nutty Jack: The Revolutionary Army brought their war to Diaraba. Itd be nice
            if we didnt get caught up in that firestorm.

Know-it-all Michelle: The Revolutionary Army isnt trying to control the
                      outlying cities. Until their take-over of the capital
                      is complete, they just dont have the time.

(After Saribash mentions his recruiting drive for arena fighters)

Bartender: I hear someone is mustering the arena boys for a war...as a
           bartender, Im a happy man.

(Move to the Arena)

Gambling Master Maverick: Did something happen in Diaraba? Are we okay here?
                          Just as soon as this bet clears, Im outta here!

Jeering Welt: Hey, hey! Your aims way off! Are you asleep motherfucker!?

Good Time Mary: The arena is the best thing about this country! You guys in
                for a fight, too?

TV Lover Elena: Not many customers in today... Maybe theyre watching the
                Revolutionary Army versus O.C.U. fight on the tube?

(After Saribash mentions his recruiting drive for arena fighters)

Gambling Master Maverick: I hear someones recruiting pilots from the arena
                          for their own little army... Well, if it brings
                          down the price of gambling, Im all for it.

Good Time Mary: If theyre gonna take the pilots from here to attack this
                prison camp, that means things are gonna get pretty dull
                around here.

(Move to the Agit)

Saribash: Were going to carry out an attack on the detainment camp.

Ash: Are you doing this for us?

Saribash: Partially. But, my real target is Ven.

Thomas: You want a decisive assault that will put an end to this in one go.

Saribash: Thats right. If this war drags on, we could be in trouble. It
          seems like the Revolutionary Army just keeps getting stronger.

Rocky: But since this is their HQ, isnt it going to be pretty heavily
       guarded...?

Saribash: No, they havent left many men guarding it. Right now, all thats
          there is Vens personal guard. We stand a good chance of winning.

Thomas: Well, how many men do we got?

Saribash: Aside from you guys, theres my boys, a tank unit, and a unit of
          five hired guns from the arena.

Thomas: Hired guns? You cant trust those guys.

Saribash: The only other guys left at the arena werent interested in my
          money. If you cant persuade them with cash...

Thomas: You do it with force...

Saribash: Thats right. If you think youve got the right stuff, you can
          try taking them on at the arena and see if they wont change their
          mind. That is, if you really think the hired guns cant be trusted.
          Anyhow were leaving tonight, and attacking tomorrow at dawn, so
          hurry up and get ready.

Roswell: What do we know about the enemys numbers?

Saribash: All we know is posted on the network. This is the password.

(Move to the Underground Warehouse)

Warehouse Manager: Backpacks that can hold items can also fire chaff and
                   smoke a long ways.

(Move to the Arena Management Room)

Arena Manager: Ah, its you guys. Saribash told me about you. Youre looking
               for an assault team? These guys say theyll help with the
               assault on the facility if you beat them in a team match. Good
               luck.

(After winning in a team battle with Teams A, B, or C)

Ash: Alright, looks like we can take these guys along now.

(Return to the Agit and talk to Saribash)

Saribash: Seems like you won the team battle. What are you going to do with
          those guys?

Ash: (Choose Team A, B, or C)

Saribash: Alright, so youve chosen your team. Now hurry up with the assault
          preparations.

(Return to the Underground Warehouse)

Warehouse Manager: Ah, its you guys.

Ash: Is something going on?

Warehouse Manager: Some shabby looking guys just came in here begging for me
                   to sell them some wanzer parts. They were so persistent I
                   ended up doing it, but I wonder if they got permission
                   from the boss?

Amia: What do you think it was all about?

Warehouse Manager: Who knows, I just gave in to them and sold the stuff...

Joyce: I havent heard anything from Saribash about this...

Warehouse Manager: Yeah, I guess I might get some flack from the boss...

(Return to the Bar)

Refugee Leader: ...So it seems well likely be spotted by their helicopter
                patrols near the border.

Refugee Child: Whatll we do if were spotted?

Refugee Leader: ...Well probably be slaughtered to the last man.

Refugee Child: Well, why dont we just go for it then?

Refugee Leader: No, absolutely not. I wont have us fighting. Were trying to
                get away to a country without fighting, not get into more of
                it.

Refugee Child: Aw, come on, you wimp!!

Joyce: Hey, you should listen to the kid.

Refugee Leader: Who the hell are you guys?

Joyce: Sorry for running my mouth, but I couldnt help it sitting there
       listening to you.

Refugee Leader: What do you got to say to me?

Joyce: This kid is telling you to fight. I think you should too.

Refugee Leader: Look, were pacifists. Were not looking for an outsider like
                you to show up and smear our principles.

Ash: But, you guys want to get across the border...right? Getting across
     isnt going to be some cakewalk. Youve got no choice but to fight.

Joyce: Yeah, we thought about crossing the border once too, but it was no
       good. Surveillance is too tight. Youll be spotted right away.

Refugee Leader: Its not like we dont know that!

Joyce: Well then, you oughta know that youre going to have to fight!

Refugee Leader: Shut up!

Joyce: You cant seriously be thinking of going without putting up a fight!
       Youve got to fight!!

Refugee Leader: Shut up! Shut the fuck up, you two!! Get out of here!!

(Leave the Bar)

Amia: Hey, wait you guys!

Joyce: What, that guy!

Refugee Leader: ...Hey, listen guys. Im asking you not to talk about
                fighting in front of the kids. Please, no more...

Joyce: But come on!

Thomas: Hey, hey, Joyce. Lets take a walk over this-a-way.

Joyce: Thomas.

Thomas: I can understand what youre trying to say. Sometimes I think the
        same thing. That the wars should end with our generation.

Refugee Leader: Right...war is nothing but hardship. It leaves nothing but
                suffering. Violence begets more violence, thats all.


Joyce: But, if you dont fight...

Refugee Leader: I know, alright! Thats why I got a wanzer. Ill hold off
                the patrol troops  buy the others some time to get to a
                land without fighting.

Amia: Thats impossible!

Refugee Leader: But, Ive got no choice.

Joyce: Youre already dead...

Refugee Leader: What!?

Joyce: At the very least, youre already dead.

Refugee Leader: If I die, and the others can make it across...

Thomas: ...If youre going to go out there with a death wish, just forget
        it already.

Refugee Leader: Now youre against me too!?

Thomas: Think about what happens after you die. Maybe the kids will make it
        even if you die...but, those kids will grow up wanting revenge on
        this land. For you.

Refugee Leader: ...So, what should I do then?

Thomas: Well help you get across the border. What you should do is accept
        our help.

Refugee Leader: Really...?

Joyce: Hrmph! Guess weve got no choice. But, Im not doing it for your
       sake. I just dont want those kids coming back here looking for
       revenge.

Amia: Haha...they seem pretty rough after all.

Refugee Leader: ...Thanks. Thanks for the help. Well go wait near the
                border for you guys to show up.

(Upon leaving the area)

Joyce: Is it alright to go without mentioning this to Saribash?

Ash: Since he said wed be leaving at night, there shouldnt be any problem
     as long as were quick about this.

Joyce: Yeah...

MISSION 64 - Area X Border

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BORNEA:

Saribash: Where the hell have you guys been!? Get your shit together and
          lets move out!

(Upon leaving the area again)

Saribash: Alright, is everyone ready?

(Select YES)

Saribash: Okay then, let's head for the detainment facility!

Thomas: Hey, are you going too, Saribash?

Saribash: Yeah, Im not going to make you guys take this one on by yourselves.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PRISONER DETAINMENT FACILITY:

Ven: I looked you up  youre officers from the Intelligence Division.

Lisa: Right, so you might know why were in Alordesh then.

Ven: Youre talking about the system?

Lisa: Its useless to you!

Ven: That machine is something that should have never been invented. But, it
     can be used to achieve national independence. Tell me, Captain. If I
     announce the systems capabilities to the world, what response could
     the O.C.U. possibly make?

Lisa: You stole the system to threaten the O.C.U.?

Ven: Naturally. All we desire is our independence. Independence for Alordesh,
     without reliance on any other state. That is my one and only desire.

Lisa: ...

(Command Room)

Gwianda: What did you manage to get out of that woman?

Ven: It seems from her behaviour that the O.C.U. still does not know the
     location of the system.

Man: If thats the case, where exactly has it gone?

Gwianda: So, youre here...Henschel.

Henschel: Im your sponsor. I need to ensure a positive outcome for this
          revolution.

Ven: I will find it. Have no doubt about that.

Henschel: Just remember how important it is that you do. Without the system,
          the revolution will not succeed. Do not forget your obligation to
          cooperate, in exchange for the Intergehen Corporations support
          in this revolution.

Captain: Lieutenant Colonel Mackarge! Preparations for departure are
         complete.

Henschel: Departure?

Gwianda: It appears Saribashs forces are headed here. We are temporarily
         moving our HQ. Ven says he has a plan for repulsing their attack.

Henschel: Ah, excellent. Im counting on you, Ven.

Ven: ...

BORNEA:

June 18, 2102  11:00 AM

Thomas: Whew, were finally back. Well, come on! Lets hit the bar!

Roswell: Miss Amia, would you care to go for lunch with me?

Amia: Well, if youre buying, Ill come along.

Roswell: Ahhh, well you see, in my homeland we have a rule that a man only
         goes out with a girl if they go dutch...

Amia: Where are you from anyway?

Roswell: Thats a s-e-c-r-e-t.

Amia: ...

Joyce: Hey, cheer up, Ash. Its not your fault that Griff wasnt in the
       detainment facility.

Ash: Yeah, but...

Joyce: Look, there werent any prisoners there at all. That means everyone,
       including Griff, must have been moved somewhere else. Am I right?

Ash: Yeah...

Joyce: So, weve still got a chance of saving him, right?

Ash: ...

Rocky: Ash.

Ash: ...?

Rocky: Ah...I...ah...you dont have to but...

Ash: ...?

Rocky: The two of us could...ah, no, nevermind...forget it...

Ash: ...?

(Move to the Agit)

Lila: Thomas.

Thomas: Hey Lila, you went on ahead of us?

Lila: There was someone who wanted to meet you, just now.

Thomas: A guest? A woman?

Lila: No, it was a man. I said you werent here so he went to wait for you
      at the bar...

Thomas: Who is he?

Lila: He said if I mentioned the name "Domingo" youd understand...

Thomas: Domingo!?

Rocky: Someone you know...?

Thomas: Yeah, a pal from way back. Gwahaha, so hes still alive!! Alright,
        Im off to the bar. Anyone interesting in coming along?

Roswell: If youre buying, Ill come.

Thomas: Sure, Im meeting up with an old friend. I might as well buy a few
        rounds.

Pike: If youre offering free liquor, count me in too.

Amia: Well stay here. Ash isnt really in a partying mood.

Thomas: What about you, Rocky?

Rocky: Y-yeah...

Thomas: Hey, this isnt like you.  Make up your mind.

Rocky: Yeah...Ill go.

(Move to the Bar)

Bartender: So, the arena pilots are back from the raid...Im just glad
           theyre okay.

Nutty Jack: I wonder if this country will return to poverty if the O.C.U.
            puts down the revolution.

(Talk to Domingo)

Domingo: Thomas!! You came!

Thomas: Domingo!! Since when have you been in Alordesh?

Domingo: Just recently. But hey, lets worry about that stuff later.

Roswell: Thomas, that...

Thomas: Its Domingo.

Roswell: Right, that Domingo guy...just what kind of friend of yours is he?

Thomas: Well you see, way back when I was dispatched to the Gabon Civil War,
        there was a bit of trouble...

Domingo: Thomas got captured by the rebel army.

Thomas: Hey now, that was part of the operation.

Domingo: Oh, the part where they decided to roast you over a fire? By the
         time I got there, you were hanging from the roof like a smoked
         salmon.

Rocky: So you saved Thomas...?

Thomas: Thats right! This guy is the elite of the elite after all! On top of
        that, he can climb into any machine and pilot it just off the top of
        his head! A genius!

Pike: So, what are you doing here?

Domingo: Im a member of the O.C.U. prisoner rescue operation.

Rocky: !!

Domingo: Dont worry. I didnt come here to capture you guys. I knew Thomas
         was with the mafia, so I thought Id come ask for his help.

Thomas: This guy doesnt stab his friends in the back.

Pike: ...

Domingo: Well enough about that. Lets just have a good time today. Drinks
         are on me.

(The screen turns black: Snore...)

Thomas: Hmm...? So I nodded off eh... Yawn. Hey, get up you two.

Roswell: Mrnm, yawnnnn!

Rocky: Uh...Thomas, wheres Domingo...?

Thomas: That Pike guys not here either.

(Leave the Bar)

Thomas: Ah, so you were out here, eh Pike?

Pike: I was seeing off Domingo.

Thomas: Leaving without even saying goodbye...

Pike: He said he had work to get to.

Thomas: Huh, well I guess thats that then.

Pike: When he left he said, wed be meeting again. What do you think he
      meant?

Thomas: That hed come see us again?

(Move to the Arena)

Gambling Master Maverick: Seems theres a lot more pilots here again. Im
                          getting stressed figuring out my bets.

Jeering Welt: Hey dumbass, you missed! What are you, asleep!?

Down-on-his-luck Tang: These days I hang around the arena, but back in the
                       day I used to have a real job with Papel Industries.
                       Hey, this is the password to Papels site. Ill give
                       it to ya. I got it a long time ago, so Im not sure if
                       it still works though. Once you become a loser like me
                       its all over. Nothing but downhill from here...

Good Time Mary: Hey, the pilots who went out on that raid are back! Things
                are gonna liven up.

(Move to the Reception Room in the Agit)

Saribash: Theres trouble!

Thomas: Whats got you so riled up?

Saribash: A huge Revolutionary Army unit is headed for the capital! Theyre
          trying to take back the capital from the O.C.U.!

Joyce: So, what are you going to do about it?

Saribash: If the Revolutionary Army wins here, itll be a major setback for
          us. I want to get ready to crush them now.

Amia: So that means were supposed to come along too?

Saribash: Yeah, please. If we win here, Ill help rescue your friend.

Ash: ...got it.

Saribash: Ill put the data Ive got on the Revolutionary Army and O.C.U.s
          fighting strength up on the network. Heres the password.

Thomas: Man, and Im still hung over...

Lila: The Revolutionary Army is headed for the capital...wont many civilians
      be caught in the fight?

Saribash: I wont let Ven get away with this any longer.

(Upon leaving the area)

Saribash: You ready?

(Select YES)

Thomas: Saribash, are you sure youre okay with fighting in the capital...

Saribash: We cant help it. No matter what we do, the O.C.U. and Revolutionary
          Army are going to be fighting there anyway. Id hate to have to
          help the O.C.U. out on this, though.

INTERMISSION 14							[IN14]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NEWS BROADCAST:

At approximately 5 PM, following the success of the hostage rescue operation
on June 17, Alordesh Revolutionary Army forces guarding the capital Dhaka
under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Ven Mackarge engaged in a large-scale
battle with O.C.U. forces which continued for over 2 hours.

During this battle, the Revolutionary Army dispatched 2 PB-40 strategic
bombers from O.C.U. Deean Air Force Base to launch strikes in the capital.

As a result of these strikes, the O.C.U. forces were almost entirely
destroyed, and the whereabouts of their commander Andrew Hordman are currently
unknown.

The Alordesh Revolutionary Army has once again occupied the capital, but with
over a thousand casualties arising from this battle, it is rumored that the
criticisms of the Revolutionary Army are increasing.

Sayuri: Lisa.

Lisa: ...

Sayuri: LI-SA!

Lisa: !? What? What is it, Sayuri?

Sayuri: Hrm, daydreaming eh?

Lisa: I was just thinking about when we got out of the chopper...the
      Revolutionary Army had far more equipment than they should...

Sayuri: So what does...

Lisa: There was a considerable amount of cutting-edge technology there that
      wasnt assigned to the O.C.U. bases in Alordesh. I wonder how the
      Revolutionary Army manage to get a hold of it...

Captain: Get out, both of you.

Sayuri: Time for interrogation?

Captain: No. Im getting you out of here.

Lisa: Come again?

Cordy: Lisa!

Lisa: Cordy! And Griff too!

Griff: I dont get it either, but this Captain seems serious.

Captain: Hurry, Ill take you to the hangar.

(Leave the Jail)

Alordeshi Soldier: Interrogating the prisoners, Captain?

Captain: Thats right.

Alordeshi Soldier: Itll be tough handling four of them all at once. Ill
                   send some guards over.

Captain: Thats fine. Ill be alright on my own.

Alordeshi Soldier: But...

Captain: Dont question me! This is an order from the General!

Alordeshi Soldier: Y-yes sir! Please proceed!

(Talk to the Captain)

Lisa: Youre the only one who knows about this, arent you?

Captain: For now. But, itll come out pretty soon.

Lisa: Youre a close associate of Vens arent you? How come youre...?

Captain: The Lieutenant Colonel is MIA. Theres no reason for me to be here.

Lisa: MIA!?

Captain: Ill explain later. Lets hurry to the hangar.

(Move to the Hangar)

Sayuri: Theres our wanzers!

Captain: Your equipment is all here.

Lisa: Ive got one more question. Are you deserting because Ven has gone
      missing in action?

Captain: The Revolutionary Army no longer follows the Lieutenant Colonels
         ideals. Its all General Gwiandas fault.

Lisa: Has General Gwianda imprisoned Ven?

Captain: You might not know this, but the coup was planned by General
         Gwianda and Intergehen.

Lisa: Intergehen?

Captain: The company supplying our  no, the Revolutionary Army with
         weapons. I dont know any more than that...

Griff: Less talking, more helping, Lisa!

Lisa: Right. Oh, I almost forgot to ask Captain, but whats your name?

Maylan: My name is Maylan.

Lisa: Well then, pleased to meet you, Captain Maylan.

(Choose Setup)

Maylan: Theres not a lot, but some of our equipment is here. If you need
        anything, nows the time to take it.

(Leave the Hangar)

Maylan: Preparations complete?  

(Select YES)

Maylan: Right then, Ill go first. Everyone, follow me.

Sayuri: Can we really trust him?

Lisa: I dont think we have much choice.

Griff: Just a matter of not getting caught.

Cordy: Im more worried about what happens after we escape the base.

DIARABA:

June 18, 2102  10:00 PM

Lisa: Well? Were you able to make contact?

Sayuri: Nope. No reply at all. I cant get through on the satellite uplink or
        the naval comm net. This wireless transceiver is too weak. It cant
        get through.

Griff: After we made it all the way to Diaraba, theres still nothing we can
       do...

Lisa: Lets look for the mafias agit. Maybe Thomas and his men will be there.

Cordy: You dont know where the agit is, right?

Lisa: All we can do is look.

(Access the network and read Maylan's history in the Alordesh Forces databse)

ID# AA1-F1257
Alordesh Army
1st Mechanized Division
Rank: Captain

Sayuri: Wow, you're pretty young for your rank.

Maylan: ...

Career:
Born July 25, 2065, in Rangpur, People's Republic of Bangladesh.

2084:
After graduating from high school, entered army officer's academy.

2086:
Obtained wanderpanzer operator's qualifications, and was assigned to the
Alordesh Army's 6th Mechanized Division. At this time, he held the rank of
Second Lieutenant.

2090:
Assumed position of commander in 2nd Mobile Company of the 6th Mechanized
Division. Promoted to rank of Lieutenant.

Maylan: That was when I first met the Lieutenant Colonel.

Lisa: What sort of person was Ven at that time?

Maylan: He had a fierce idealism and sense of justice, just like he does now.
        However, he recently often seemed weighed down by the weight of his
        thoughts.

Lisa: Do you think that had something to do with the coup d'etat?

Maylan: Yes, I certainly do.

2098:
He was transferred to the 1st Mechanized Division's 2nd Mobile Company, and
was found innocent of any connection with the coup d'etat attempt led by Rob
Azad during this year.

2100:
He was made assistant commander of the 1st Mechanized Division and promoted
to the rank of Captain.

Sayuri: Is there any other interesting info in here?

Maylan: Just what's in the Army's information forum. If you manually input
        ALERT into the system, you can read it. But, I can't say it's
        anything especially interesting.

(Access the network and input ALERT in the Alordesh Forces database. Then,
access Maylan's information and read the section on the Air Force.)

Maylan: Isn't that enough? Even though I ran from it, it's still hard for me
        to look over the data of my army's decay.

Lisa: Wait! What is this character string displayed on the console?

Maylan: DEACON eh... Seems like a password.

Lisa: Where can we input it?

Maylan: I don't know.

(Access the network and input DEACON into the Alordesh Forces database. Then,
access Maylan's information.)

Computer:
WARNING!! WARNING!! WARNING!! WARNING!! WARNING!! WARNING!! WARNING!!
WARNING!! WARNING!! WARNING!! WARNING!! WARNING!! WARNING!! WARNING!!
WARNING!!

Maylan: It seems like my callsign isn't going to work.

Sayuri: Whose should we use then?

Maylan: The Lieutenant Colonel's special password might let us get access.

Lisa: Special password?

Maylan: The one that the Lieutenant Colonel used for his exchanges with
        Intergehen.

Sayuri: How come you know Ven's password?

Maylan: Because the Lieutenant Colonel trusted me...

Lisa: So, what's the password?

Maylan: BANIYAN... The name of a poet the Lieutenant Colonel liked.

Computer:
Your check code does not grant you access to view this data. Now forcibly
terminating connection.

(Access the network and input DEACON into the Alordesh Forces database. Then,
input BANIYAN and read the section on delivery data.)

Maylan: No doubt about it... This is a list of equipment delivered from
        Intergehen to the Alordesh Army.

Sayuri: Wow. These types of weapons are usually used by the O.C.U.

Lisa: There isn't any data about where Intergehen's whereabouts in there?

Maylan: Let's take a closer look.

(Move to the Bar)

Bartender: The mafia agit? Hrm, now that you mention it there were some
           people in here just a while ago...But, Im afraid I cant tell you
           that anyhow.

Drunkard Snorken: Diarabas aaa, p-portt ysee...

Talkative Stalt: The people of Alordesh are always relying on some other
                 country. Until they develop a true national spirit of
                 cooperation, theyll never really be independent.

Friendly-looking Lala: The mafia are the ones who really run the arena, you
                       know.

Drinking Jennifer: Seems there was a huge battle in the capital. The O.C.U.
                   forces were completely wiped out. Not that it has anything
                   to do with me.

(After going to the Agit)

Bartender: What, so you guys know Saribash too? Small world huh. 

Drunkard Snorken: Roydss...a fuckin...pussy! *hic* 

(Move to the Arena)

Nervous Grace: Whaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

Royds Acquaintance Judy: If you want to meet Royd, put a woman in the ring.

Battle-Hardened Milene: When it comes down to the line, pilots with real
                        battle experience know what to do.

(Participate in the Arena with Lisa, Sayuri, or Cordy and defeat Royd)

Royd: Dammit all! I lost to a woman!

Lisa: Hey, Ive got something to ask you.

Royd: W-what! Now this sounds familiar.

Sayuri: We want to know where to find the Burg Transportation office.

Royd: Ahh, of course you do!

Cordy: So youll just tell us straight up, right!?

Royd: Ill tell ya! Ill tell ya! Ill tell ya straight so dont bother me,
      okay?

Griff: Man, hes just as weird as Id heard.

(After going to the Agit)

Rowdy Jack: Sock em one!!! Alrightt!!! Thats more like it!!!!!!

Royds Acquaintance Judy: So, you managed to meet Royd, right?

(Move to the Port)

Royd: Well, here we are...what?

Lisa: The agit is really here?

Cordy: If you screw us, Ill get you!

Royd: ...man, Im getting used to people not trusting me...

Lisa: He really is strange, isnt he?

(Move to the Agit from the Port)

Lisa: Thanks for showing us here. And thanks...

Royd: I-I dont need no thanks. S-see ya later. Im out of here. Bye!

Griff: Strange until the end, huh.

Guard: Whos there!?

Cordy: Huh? Youre the guy from Daukandei...

Guard: Cordy? And the O.C.U. military...

Lisa: Wed like to meet with your boss.

Guard: How come?

Lisa: Wed like his help, in exchange for some info weve got on the
      Revolutionary Army.

Guard: I cant trust you. Youve really got some info for us?

Maylan: Ive got it.

Guard: Maylan!? Vens right-hand man!?

Maylan: Thats right. Ive deserted from the Revolutionary Army. Im the
        living info, so to speak.

Guard: ...okay. Ill trust ya. But, the boss is in Bornea. I dont have any
       way of getting you there right now. Sorry, but youll have to make it
       to Bornea on your own. You can use the warehouse and rooms for now,
       though.

Lisa: Thanks for the help.

(Move to Saribashs Office)

Lisa: Whew, Im tired. Lets take a rest.

Maylan: Lisa, Ive got one thing to ask you. Just what sort of thing is this
        system?

Griff: By system, you mean the thing Lisas been looking for right?

Cordy: Isnt it some kind of unmanned recon controller?

Maylan: Its supposed to be a lot more than just that. The Lieutenant Colonel
        thought that if he could get a hold of it, our independence would be
        assured.

Griff: What, so you were lying to us about what this thing is really about!?

Sayuri: Its no lie! We just thought if I explained it, you wouldnt
        understand.

Lisa: Just like Sayuri said, we were lying. But, I didnt want to discuss
      any of the specifics of the system...

Maylan: I have to know. This system is part of what started the revolution,
        after all.

Lisa: ...Alright, fine. Ill talk. ...the system can completely control
      unmanned weapons. That much is true.

Griff: But, that shouldnt be such a big deal right now. Itd be useful for
       controlling wanzer-equipped cruise missiles, but not much else.

Lisa: Youre not thinking big enough. What if it could control 3 wanzer
      armies, 4 helicopter companies, an aircraft carrier and the planes
      onboard it?

Cordy: ...you could certainly take control of Alordesh with that.

Lisa: Once you input the operational data into this machine, your units will
      keep fighting until they run out of power. All you need humans for is
      to resupply them...

Griff: I dont like it one bit. Its the same as robots controlling humans.

Lisa: But, the system was developed without the approval of the O.C.U.
      Central Parliament...

Griff: If it was revealed to parliament, whatd happen?

Lisa: Itd be a scandal even bigger than Sakata Industries.

Maylan: So, the Lieutenant Colonel wanted to blackmail the O.C.U. with the
        device...

Cordy: But, Ven never had the system.

Lisa: We have to find it before the Revolutionary Army does.

Maylan: What if you find it? Are you just going to let the O.C.U. military
        use it?

Lisa: ...my orders are only to retrieve the system...but if I do find it...I
      intend to destroy it right then and there.

Sayuri: Lisa...

Lisa: When I first heard of the system I got the shivers... Weapons beyond
      the control of human reason...its a terrifying prospect...

Maylan: ...

(Move to the Warehouse)

Warehouse Manager: Welcome. The thing you got from the last battle is being
                   sent here. Its a Restore ALL.

(Ask for combat tips from the Warehouse Manager)

Warehouse Manager: You can see the weapons each manufacturer offers on their
                   forums. The data is often being updated, so you should
                   check it out when you can.

June 19, 2012 - 3:00 AM

Saribash: Ven! Just what the hell have you been up to all this time? Is your
          idea to indiscriminately bomb this country to pieces!?

Ven: How many times do I have to tell you? I wasnt the one who ordered the
     bombing.

Saribash: Well then, just who the hell was it!? Just who in the revolutionary
          leadership aside from you could hand out those kind of orders!?

Ven: ...

Saribash: A whole lot of civilians died in those bombings! And yet, here you
          are playing innocent!!

Pike: Hey now, just yelling at your prisoners isnt any kind of way to hold
      an interrogation. Isnt that right, Lieutenant Colonel Mackarge?

Ven: ...

Ash: Ven, I want to ask you something. Was there a man named Griff among the
     O.C.U. prisoners you captured?

Ven: Griff...yeah, there was. Ash, hm...you used to be a 2nd Lieutenant back
     then, right?

Ash: !!

Ven: So I was right...are you still trying to get in our way...in the way of
     the revolution!?

Saribash: What revolution!? Dont make me laugh! Ven. Revolution has to be
          carried out by the whole people! All you soldiers are doing is
          stealing citizens lives in your worthless acts of terrorism! Dont
          you get it after all this!! Huh!?

Thomas: Calm down, Saribash!

Saribash: Ive had enough of being calm!! Im gonna kill Ven! Let go of me!

Thomas: Hey! You guys, dont just stand there, get Ven into another room!
        Do it! Make sure you guard it too!

Joyce: Well then, if youll follow me.

Saribash: Keep a close watch on Ven for me.

Lila: Ven...

(Move to the Guest Room)

Ven: ...

Joyce: Go on, talk to me. Ive gotta stay awake here.

Ven: ...

Joyce: Youre a cold one, aint ya? No joke.

Lila: Joyce.

Joyce: Lila...whats the matter?

Lila: I brought some dinner...is it okay if I come in?

Joyce: ...Your voice is trembling, Lila.

Lila: !!

Joyce: There are sleeping pills in that food arent there? ...you trying to
       break Ven out of here?

Ven: !!

Lila: Joyce...I...I...

Joyce: Do whatever you like.

Lila: What!?

Joyce: Ill pretend I got careless and let him get away.

Lila: Joyce...

Joyce: Well then, get him out of here will ya? You dont want to get spotted
       before you even make it out of the agit.

Lila: Th-thank you...Joyce.

Joyce: ...Ven!

Ven: !?

Joyce: I dont know what youre going to do from here on in. But, if I meet
       you on the battlefield again, I will kill you. Just remember that.

Ven: ...

Lila: Hurry, Ven, lets go.

Joyce: ...

(Leave the Guest Room)

June 19, 2102 - 8:00 AM

Saribash: Ven got away!?

Joyce: Yeah, thats right.

Saribash: "Thats right"!? Yeah, thats right!? How can you be so calm about
          this!! Do you know what the fuck you just did!?

Joyce: Well yknow...you win some, you lose some.

Saribash: ...Ill tear your fucking head off!!!

Lila: Papa! Stop!! This isnt Joyces fault! I...

Joyce: Lila! Nice of you to cover for me, but you dont have to go talking
       that way.

Thomas: Saribash, you know it wouldve been a mistake to kill this guy just
        now, right?

Ash: Its not like Joyce would just let him run after all weve been through.
     Isnt that right, Joyce?

Joyce: Hm? Yeah...sure.

Thomas: Look, Saribash. Weve got something more important to do than
        throwing a fit, am I right?

Saribash: ...alright. Ill listen to you guys this time. But! If this happens
          again, its gonna get ugly! You got that!?

Joyce: Yeah, Ill watch it.

Saribash: Anyhow. Since Ven escaped, its just a matter of time before the
          Revolutionary Army comes pouring in here. Ill form up some units
          and do some recon. Can you guys go too?

Thomas: Yeah, sure. If theres money in it for us.

Saribash: Well be scouting the outskirts of Bornea. First, Unit 1 will scout
          the northern outskirts. Then, Unit 2 will scout the eastern
          outskirts. Next...

Thomas: Well take that one.

Saribash: If you spot something, contact me right away.

Roswell: Ah, but isnt the route going to be too transparent? Wont we get
         spotted?

Saribash: Try to be careful out there. Anyhow, hurry up and move out. The
          Revolutionary Army isnt going to wait for us!

(Leave the Reception Room)

Lila: Joyce...I...ah...

Joyce: You dont have to say anything Lila. I got out of there without your
       father killing me, after all.

Lila: ...

(Ask for combat tips from the Warehouse Manager)

Warehouse Manager: If you clock up your CPUs, itll increase your attack
                   accuracy. Its worth doing when youve got some money to

Thomas: Err...well...about...about earlier...sorry about that, Lisa.

Sayuri: You expect us to forgive you!? You must be joking! Dont you have any
        idea what sort of impression you left back there!?

Roswell: Hey now, Miss Sayuri. Umm, we didnt MEAN to leave you back there.
         I actually tried to go save you. So...

Rocky: I know this isnt the time for making excuses... Sorry...

Roswell: Hey look, Rocky said hes sorry too so...

Sayuri: Im not going to be the one apologizing here!

(Move to the Reception Room in the Agit)

Pike: Say Lisa, how is General Chang-Jang these days?

Lisa: ...

Pike: Judging by that taciturn disposition, I gather that you havent found
      the system yet, have you?

Thomas: What are you guys talking about? Whats this "system"?

Pike: The remote controller for an automated weapons system the O.C.U.
      Military is dead-set on hiding. Im going to find it and tell the whole
      world about their little plan. Thats why I came to Alordesh.

Thomas: ...Is something like that really all that useful?

Joyce: What do you mean, Thomas?

Thomas: Well, wirelessly operated machines are vulnerable to EMP bursts.
        There was a time when EMP weapons had limited range and werent very
        effective. But nowadays, military satellites can unleash pulses of up
        to 1000 km in radius. Against a weapon like that, this automated
        weapon would be so much junk.

Pike: Why dont you tell them about it Lisa? Theyre not such big-shots after
      all.

Griff: Is there something you still havent told us?

Pike: Do you want me to explain then?

Lisa: No. That wont be necessary...one of the terrifying things about the
      system is certainly the fact that it can be remotely controlled...but,
      theres another... The system has another function... The system is
      equipped on an artificial satellite. Though it's somewhat bound by
      technical limitations, the system can basically take control of all
      other satellites in range of the path of its orbit... That isnt
      limited to O.C.U. satellites. It can take control of any nations
      satellites... The system can then make use of any satellites it hacked
      as weapons... Of course, it can then use those satellites to strike
      targets on the ground.

      Thats the true purpose of the "FENRIR" system...

Griff: FENRIR, huh...

Thomas: Nuclear weapons equipped on military satellites, EMP weapons,
        surveillance equipment...it can take control of all those things...
        "He who controls space, controls earth", huh.

Pike: No point in leaking that kind of technology to other countries. Itd
      be a shame to be harassed by so many foreign powers.

Lisa: ...

Pike: Lisa, our objectives are different but were chasing the same thing.
      If youre willing, Id appreciate your help.

Sayuri: Yeah right! As if wed ever work with the CIU!

Lisa: After we find FENRIR, you promise not to stop me from destroying it.
      Are we clear?

Pike: Of course, I only want to take a photo before you do.

Lisa: ...Ill think about it.

Sayuri: Lisa!

Thomas: Theres just one thing I dont understand. Why would the O.C.U. move
        something so important to Alordesh?

Ash: Yeah. Rimian Base doesnt exactly seem like the best place to hide
     something top-secret.

Pike: I dont know what the O.C.U. was actually thinking. But, I cant
      imagine that it was just a matter of chance.

Lisa: ...

(Talk to Lila)

Lila: My father is in the basement warehouse.

(Leave the Reception Room)

Joyce: What should we do about what they were talking about back there? It
       doesnt seem to have much to do with us.

Amia: Yeah, since weve found Griff maybe we should come up with a plan for
      getting out of this country.

Joyce: Well, why dont we do that at the bar? Griffs back and the four of us
       ought to celebrate.

Ash: Yeah, lets do that.

Griff: ...

Ash: Whats wrong, Griff?

Amia: You look kinda down.

Griff: Just tired, thats all...Im fine.

(Talk to Saribash at the Underground Warehouse)

Saribash: Im busy...come talk to me later. Oh, by the way, thanks for running
          that recon mission.

(Move to the Bar)

Joyce: Heres a toast to our reunion with Griff!

Amia: Yeah, we can finally say goodbye to this country!

Joyce: You seem pretty happy about that.

Amia: Youve got that right. I got dragged into coming back here because of
      you and Ashs personal feelings.

Joyce: Hey, why are you lumping me in there with Ash?

Amia: You think I didnt know? That youre sweet on Lila?

Joyce: H-Hey, what are you talking about there, Amia?

Amia: Well, theres that look you get in your eye when youre looking at Lila.

Joyce: Aw, come on...

Ash: Seriously though, Im sorry about dragging you into all this, Amia.

Amia: Oh its alright, thats life after all.

Joyce: Hey, Griff, whats the matter? You feeling alright?

Griff: ...yeah.

Ash: Youve been like this since you heard what Lisa was talking about. Does
     it have something to do with that?

Griff: Im sorry Ash...I...I...might know where...FENRIR is.

Amia: W-WHAT!?

Griff: The reason I stuck around Alordesh wasnt just because I was worried
       about you guys...I...a while back I took some surplus weapons from
       the MDF...

Ash: ...

Griff: I just did it for the money! Im too old to get promoted in the MDF!
       And I dont have the guts to quit the MDF and start at another job!

Ash: Griff...!

Griff: Ive got a wife and kids...I just wanted them to have enough money
       to live a happy life...

Joyce: You bastard! Do you have any idea how much Ash went through because
       he was worried about you? Ash, he...

Ash: Joyce! Thats enough!

Joyce: Arent you mad about this!?

Ash: Yeah, Im mad...but Ill get over it. Its like Amia said, thats life.

Joyce: ...Jeez, youre way too soft, man.

Ash: We should tell Pike and the others about this.

Griff: Yeah...yeah okay. Im ready to talk. Thanks, Ash.

Bartender: It seems like the Revolutionary Army has finished taking control
           of the capital...I wonder if we can all breathe a bit easier now?

Enduring Eric: Is this country gonna finally settle down? Well, I guess its
               time to get ready for my job abroad.

Slacker Ted: So if the revolution succeeds, we have to establish our own
             state? What a pain...

Mercenary Jim: Whoa! Brother!! Heres the address for Fire Valleys customer
               website. Theyre from the U.S.N. You interested? 

               (Select YES)

               Alright, heres the address...but, if you dont have the
               password it dont mean squat. Ill sell it to ya for 500. How
               about it, 500?

               (Select YES) 

               Sweet brother!! Youre the best. Anyhow, if ya need anything
               else, lemme know!!

Nutty Jessica: You think the Revolutionary Army has finally completed their
               revolution? I dont need anymore stress.

Know-it-all Michelle: If the Revolutionary Army takes over this country, you
                      can expect them to tighten regulations on entertainment
                      venues. Like the arenas, for example.

(Move to the Arena)

Gambling Master Maverick: Man, my yomi is way off these days. I wonder if Ive
                          lost it?

Jeering Welt: Arghhh, BAH! Watch what youre doing. What are you, some kind
              of pussy!?

Good Time Mary: After the Revolutionary Army assumes power, it looks like
                theyll crack down the arenas. Sigh, what about the peoples
                fun...

TV Lover Elena: Man, this is dull...the fight between the O.C.U. and the
                Revolutionary Army was so exciting.

(After going to the Bar and returning to the Reception Room)

Pike: You said you knew about FENRIR? Were you working with Lisa?

Griff: Im not so sure about it now. To think that kind of crazy stuff is
       being traded out there...

Sayuri: But, you could have said something when we talked before!

Griff: When I talked to Lisa before, I just thought the device would be sold
       for cash...

Cordy: Worth a hundred war machines, eh?

Sayuri: Shocking!

Lisa: Is there a hiding place for the smuggled goods?

Griff: At the firing range, near Rimian Base.

Joyce: Jeez, it was so close after all.

Lisa: Griff, can you take us there?

Griff: Yeah, you reap what you sow after all.

Ash: Ill come too.

Thomas: Were in too.

Joyce: Whats in it for you?

Thomas: Hey, Im more interested in Griffs treasure stash than anything Lisa
        is looking for.

Roswell: But Thomas, dont we need to get permission to go out there from
         Saribash?

Thomas: Of course.

(Talk to Saribash in the Underground Warehouse)

Saribash: ...Youre all going way out there!? Quit fucking around. We dont
          know if the Revolutionary Army is just waiting for us outside of
          town!

Thomas: Itll just be for a bit! Well be back before ya know it.

Saribash: Well, just how are you going to get out there from here? Look, if
          you take the land route you have to pass by Deean A.F.B. and the
          capital. Thats Vens turf right now. On the other hand, if you
          take the water route...its too far, and if you go by boat youll
          stand out too much.

Griff: Let us take the underground railroad.

Saribash: Wha- How do you know about that!?

Griff: I used your smuggling network. I heard from one of your men that there
       was a secret underground railroad running to the capital.

Saribash: Sure the railroad will get you past Deean, and quick too. But, the
          terminus is in the middle of the capital. What will the Revolutionary
          Army there do when you show up?

Thomas: Well play it by ear.

Saribash: But...

Lisa: We have to go. We cant let FENRIR fall into Vens hands...

Saribash: ...Thomas, will you just think straight about this one?

Thomas: Saribash...sorry, but it looks like there s a lot of money in this
        one. Dont worry. If we cause a ruckus in the capital, the
        Revolutionary Army wont be coming for Bornea.

Saribash: Is that so...

Thomas: Well, probably.

Saribash: You heartless son of a bitch!!

Sayuri: What the hell is this? The second applied testing plan...

Griff: Could this FENRIR Plan be a plan for making that device?

Sayuri: But, there isn't any applied test of FENRIR going on. And what's this
        about a "second test?"

Cordy: This just makes things even more confusing.

* THE ABOVE EVENT OCCURS ONLY IN THE HISTORY AND ULTIMATE HITS VERSIONS *

(Go to the Underground Railway Station)

Thomas: I never knew there was an underground railroad in Alordesh.

Saribash: Its another little parting gift from the O.C.U. It was built so
          raw materials unloaded in Bornea could be transported to the
          capital. But there are a lot of rivers in this country, and the
          ground is soft, so once the highways were done they abandoned this
          line.

Pike: Is everyone ready?

(Select YES)

Pike: Well then, ladies and gentlemen, let us be off.

Thomas: Alright, time to head out of cover. 

(Select YES)

Saribash: Be careful out there...

DAUKANDEI:

June 20, 2102 - 0:00 AM

Thomas: Whew, looks like we somehow made it.

Lisa: Right. Id like to leave as soon as possible, though.

Amia: Hey, give us a break here.

Maylan: No, the Revolutionary Army is bound to track us here. Weve got to
        hurry.

(Move to the Reception Room at the Agit)

Guard: You guys, eh? I heard from the boss about you coming. Weve got the
       latest gear for ya in the warehouse so check it out. Itll cost ya of
       course though.

(Move to the Underground Warehouse)

Warehouse Manager: Welcome. Ive got all the stuff you picked up in the
                   last battle. Restore ALL and the Hexafire weapon. Here
                   ya go.

(Ask for combat tips from the Warehouse Manager)

Warehouse Manager: If you destroy enough enemies and make yourself famous,
                   the enemies might surrender to you just for approaching
                   them. Man, Id like to be that kinda guy.

(Move to the Bar)

Bartender: This is just between you and me, but it looks like the capital is
           in rough shape.

Lonely Martin: Heeeeyyyy, youuuu idiottt.

Wistful Nick: There are patrol helicopters running all along the border. I
              wonder if anyones managed to get out...

Good Time Rosanna: The capitals been bombed into the stone age. It costs
                   money to destroy, it costs money to rebuild. No matter how
                   you look at it, war is expensive

One-Track Mind Elena: Whew, Ive been hitting the bottle hard lately. The day
                      they cut off the flow of liquor is the day Ill start
                      my own coup detat.

(Move to the Arena)

Eager Teddy: One day Ill be a fighter in the arena too. Then Ill have big
             money.

Solemn Carl: Sigh...To be young again...sigh.

Fangirl Ann: The arena without Cordy is like a milk tea without the milk...
             Sigh..

Fighting Man Enthusiast Dorothy: You think it doesnt matter if a man is
                                 strong or weak? I like fighting men, myself.

(Upon leaving the area)

Joyce: Ready to head out?

(Select YES)

Sayuri: The prisoner rescue operations HQ isnt far from here. Lets go take
        a look.

Griff: But, werent the O.C.U. forces wiped out? What could possibly be there?

Sayuri: Well...

Thomas: I think we ought to let Lisas little princess decide this one.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

O.C.U. PRISONER RESCUE OPERATIONS HQ:

Lisa: Theres no one here after all...so its true the O.C.U. forces were
      totally wiped out...

Joyce: Yeah, the O.C.U. committed their main force to the capital...then they
       were wiped out by the Revolutionary Armys tactical airstrikes...

Lisa: ...

(Move to the Command Room)

Sayuri: No one here, either...

Ash: I heard the O.C.U. commander was killed in the airstrikes...

Sayuri: Yeah... He was a pretty nasty guy...but to think Ill never see him
        again, its kinda sad...

(A computer is activated)

Sayuri: What are you doing?

Roswell: Well, I just thought there might be some useful info on this
         computer.

Amia: Well?

Roswell: As I expected, nothing major. If you really stretch it, these network
         addresses from Koreas Biwu and South Africas Masel Industries are
         kinda interesting.

Lisa: Those are both aircraft manufacturers. I wonder why theyd be in there?

Roswell: I dont know. He was probably looking up some data on weapons the
         Revolutionary Army was using.

(Move to the Equipment Booth)

Lisa: Even though they were wiped out, it doesnt mean that all the soldiers
      died right? I wonder what happened to the survivors...

Roswell: Hmm. This is just an educated guess...but Id say the survivors were
         either captured by the Revolutionary Army, or theyre still hanging
         around somewhere...

Amia: No, the survivors went to Chittagong, then took helicopters to the
      aircraft carrier. Thats what Saribash said.

Roswell: Hm...or that.

Lisa: ...

Thomas: Heyyy! Take a look at this. It looks like they left us a little
        parting gift. Since were here, we might as well take it.

Roswell: Restore, backpack...and a machine gun, eh?

MISSION 19 - Rimian Firing Range

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTERMISSION 19							[IN19]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTUN COMILLA:

Ash: Looks like this place hasn't changed much.

Joyce: Weve got to contact Saribash.

Amia: Is there an agit around here?

Ash: Not that Ive heard of.

Sayuri: Cordy, you know about anything?

Cordy: All I know about this place is that you can buy wanzer weapons at a
       pub called "The Turkey".

Lisa: Is there an arena in this town?

Cordy: Nope.

Lisa: Strange then that you could buy weapons in a run-down town like this.
      Lets go take a look.

(Move to The Turkey Bar)

Ignorant Bolkwa: Wanzer weapons? Havent a clue.

Bored Barclay: Theres no arena around here. Talk about dullsville...

Loose Lips Charley: I used to date a person from Diable Avionics. They gave
                    me access to a top-secret forum. But since my works
                    got nothing to do with wanzers, Ill give the password
                    to you.

Familiar Jane: Huh? Have we met? Must be my mistake...

On Edge Cathy: Since the revolution started, there have been more and more
               criminals around. Its making it so I cant get to sleep at
               night.

(Talk to the Bartender)

Bartender: Hey there, whats your poison?

Cordy: Ill have a Basalt Mostro 24mm with a side of depleted uranium rounds.

Bartender: Look, friend... If youre just window shopping head on home, Im
           a busy man...

Cordy: I talked to du Roy in Daukandei. You heard of him?

Bartender: ...

Cordy: Well, I could always pass your name along to the Revolutionary Army.
       Theyre buying info about companies working with the Burg Mafia at...
       cut throat rates.

Bartender: O-Okay, I got it! Ill sell you your weapons, so just keep it down!

Cordy: Wheres the pickup?

Bartender: Ill make the introductions. You do the negotiating yourself. I
           close up at 7 AM, so thats when...

Cordy: Now.

Bartender: Whats that?

Cordy: You deaf?

Bartender: ...Alright, fine. Ive got to make some preparations, so hang on
           a minute.

Cordy: Sure. But, dont think of running now.

Sayuri: Hey Cordy, you knew there was a mafia agit here all along!

Cordy: Did not.

Sayuri: Huh? But, you said...

Cordy: Bluffing, an old trick I learned from your boss. Isnt that right,
       Lisa?

Lisa: Hm? Right. Heh heh...thats right

Bartender: Alright, Im set. Lets go...

(Move to the Agit)

Guard: Halt! Whos there!?

Bartender: I-Its me!!

Guard: Huh, what are you doing here at this time of day?

Guard: These people...

Pike: Were a unit under Saribashs employ. Wed like to report our operations
      status to Saribash in Bornea.

Guard: Huh, so youre those guys, eh? The boss said you might come by.
       Whatever ya need, just ask.

Pike: Wed like to get our wanzers serviced. And...wed like a place to rest.

Guard: Sure thing. There are some rooms in the back you can rest up in.

(Move to the Main Room)

Pike: Well then Lisa, what to do?

Lisa: Ven is taking FENRIR back to HQ...he said he was headed for Dhaka.

Pike: You think we can take down Deean on our own?

Lisa: If the O.C.U. responds to Vens threats, well lose our chance to
      destroy FENRIR... On top of that, were out of time. Theres a chance
      FENRIR will fall into their hands too.

Pike: "Their"?

Lisa: It seems the Revolutionary Army is receiving support from a corporation
      called Intergehen. If Intergehen is after the FENRIR technology, our
      problems will go far beyond a scandal for the O.C.U.

Pike: Intergehen... The forgotten company, eh...

Lisa: What?

Pike: Intergehen is the name of a German manufacturer that went bankrupt.

Sayuri: Bankrupt?

Pike: Intergehen was ruled against in an international court 13 years ago and
      went bankrupt. They were found guilty of selling technology they
      licensed from another company outside of the national restrictions in
      their contract.

Lisa: So, just what is this Intergehen thats supporting Ven?

Pike: Who knows? I havent got the slightest.

Thomas: I managed to get in touch with Saribash. Well meet up early tomorrow
        morning in the capital. Hes planning on taking the capital back from
        the Revolutionary Army.

Sayuri: Tomorrow morning? That means...

Thomas: Right! Weve got today off! Roswell, Rocky, lets hit the bar!

Roswell: Count me out, Im tired.

Rocky: Same here...

Thomas: Slackers.

Joyce: Ill come instead. Ash, you come too.

Ash: Sure, Im coming.

Amia: What about servicing the wanzers!?

Thomas: Oh, Im sure someone will deal with it, one way or the other. See ya.

Amia: Wait...a...second...

(Talk to the Head Mechanic in the Underground Warehouse)

Head Mechanic: An arena? Yeah, theres one. But, the one in this town is
               members only. You can only get in with an invitation from a
               member.

Head Mechanic: Hey, hows it going?

(Leave the Agit and return to the Bar)

Bartender: Were closed for the day. Come back at night.

Thomas: Come on pal, just one drink...

Joyce: Give it up, Thomas.

Thomas: Grmmm...

Familiar Jane: So it is you, Ash. I thought so last time I saw you. Well,
               dont just stand over there  come here.

Thomas: Heh heh, thanks. Dont mind if I do.

Ash: ...

(Talk to Familiar Jane)

Ash: So...you are?

Familiar Jane: Its been 10 years already so I guess you might not remember...
               I was your fathers friend.

Ash: My father!?

Familiar Jane: Yeah, I even used to play with you when you were a kid...

Ash: ...

Familiar Jane: So, is this your homecoming?

Ash: N-no, Im not going to stick around...

Familiar Jane: Right. After your father passed away you moved to Leonora. But
               since youre here you might as well go see Maniple, where we
               used to live. Even though the place is even more run down than
               in the old days.

Ash: ...

(Leave the Bar)

Thomas: What? Are we leaving already?

Joyce: Yeah, you can keep on drinking if you like.

Thomas: Ill take you up on that.

Joyce: You really do love the bottle, dont ya?

(Move to Maniple)

Ash: ...

Joyce: So, this is your hometown?

Ash: Yeah...

Joyce: You always said you hated this country, eh?

Ash: ...What I hate is seeing this country rot...people living in filth
     develop filthy souls... A country like this...

Joyce: ...What about now? Do you still hate this country now?

Ash: ...

Joyce: You dont need to answer that.

Ash: ...

Joyce: Come on, lets go.

Ash: Yeah...

(Return to the Agit)

Thomas: Hey! Theres trouble!

Ash: What wrong, Thomas?

Thomas: We found him...we found Domingo collapsed in the back alley!

Domingo: ...

Amia: Hes hurt bad. If we dont get him treatment...

Joyce: At any rate, lets get him inside.

(Move to the Main Room)

Lisa: Whats going on?

Joyce: Weve got an injured man. I think hes Thomas friend.

Sayuri: Lisa! This guy...

Pike: An acquaintance of yours?

Lisa: He was a consultant for the O.C.U. hostage rescue force.

Pike: Why would a man from the rescue force show up just now, injured in a
      town like this?

Lisa: Hm...

Amia: Well anyways, lets get him into a bed!

Thomas: Take him to my room! Roswell! Get the med supplies!

Amia: His wounds arent as bad as I thought. Looks like hes lost a lot of
      blood though... Hell be okay, if he gets rest.

Thomas: Whew, glad to hear it. Thanks Amia, for taking care of him.

Lisa: I wonder why he got injured?

Amia: There were metal fragments stuck in his body. It looks like he was
      caught in a blast.

Pike: The O.C.U. forces were destroyed in the capital two days ago.

Amia: If he was hurt then, he wouldnt be alive now.

Lisa: ...

Thomas: Hey, Lisa. Is it alright if we let Domingo recover here for a while?

Lisa: Yes, that would be fine. But, I still expect you to participate in
      tomorrows operation.

Thomas: Sure, you got it. Well let him rest here while were out doing that.

(Return to the Main Room and talk to Lisa)

Ash: Not going to sleep?

Lisa: Oh, Im off to bed soon. You should get some rest, too.

Ash: Ill do that.

Lisa: Ash?

Ash: What is it?

Lisa: What do you think of this coup detat?

Ash: ...What do I think?

Lisa: As an Alordeshi, do you support Vens actions?

Ash: ...Im fighting Ven.

Lisa: Thats how things have ended up. Youve just been forced into a
      situation where you cant avoid fighting.

Ash: ...

Lisa: Im sorry. Im out of line. No sense in pressing the question when I
      already know what cant be changed.

Ash: Lisa...

Lisa: I have to destroy FENRIR. But, I dont know if I have the right to stop
      this coup...

Ash: I dont even know why we have countries or nations.

Lisa: ...

Ash: Im off to bed. Good night.

Lisa: Yeah...

(Move to the Underground Warehouse)

Rocky: H-Hey, Ash...

Ash: Doing some maintenance, Rocky?

Rocky: Y-Yeah...since the big push is tomorrow and all...

Ash: Ah...

Rocky: ...Ash.

Ash: W-whats up?

Rocky: W-well...before...what Ven said...

Ash: You mean about how I got in the way of the revolution?

Rocky: Y-yeah...sorry to ask...but its kinda been bugging me...

Ash: ...

Rocky: If its alright, could you tell me what he meant...?

Ash: ......sorry......I...

Rocky: A-Ah, its fine Ash. You dont have to talk about it.

(Return to the Main Room and go to Lisas Room)

Cordy: Sayuris sleeping. Should you get some rest too?

(Go to Thomas Room)

Roswell: Hmm, Domingo is still lights out, and the boss is snoring away too.

(Go to Pikes Room)

Pike: I still havent slept. If you want to talk, lets do it later.

(Go to Ashs Room)

Joyce: Seems Griff is still sleeping. Lets hit the hay too.

(Choose to sleep)

...Hey, Ash! Get up...

Ash: Ngh...? Thomas...what is it?

Thomas: Domingos gone! You know anything about what happened?

Ash: No, I was asleep...

Thomas: I see...

Ash: Did you ask everyone else?

Thomas: No, not yet.

Ash: Well, lets go ask them then.

(Return to the Main Room and go to Lisas Room)

Lisa: Whats the matter?

Thomas: Domingos gone.

Lisa: I dont know anything. Sorry, but can you let me get back to sleep?

(Go to Thomas Room)

Thomas: Hes not here either...

(Go to Pikes Room)

Maylan: Domingo? I havent got a clue.

(Return to the Main Room)

Joyce: Weve looked everywhere.

Thomas: Yeah, where could he have gone? Especially in the state he was in...

Amia: His injuries werent too serious. He was bleeding, but they werent
      life threatening. But, why would he leave without saying anything to
      Thomas?

Lisa: Everyone, lets gather up in warehouse. Its about time we get ready
      to move out.

Thomas: But, Domingo...

Lisa: Were not supposed to be looking for him, and we dont have the time.
      Hurry up and get down to the warehouse.

(Move to the Underground Warehouse)

Lisa: It seems Saribash is going to try and take back the capital. Theres
      no doubt this will come to blood, so make sure you are all good and
      ready.

Cordy: Arent they just going to send bombers at us from Deean again?

Roswell: Hm, its possible. But in that last battle, the capital was under
         O.C.U. control. Now that its the Revolutionary Army HQ, it seems
         less likely theyll be able to bomb it so carelessly.

Thomas: Do you have the enemy forces' strength data?

Sayuri: Yep. Ive forwarded the password to you.

(Return to the Bar after Domingo recovers)

Bartender: Welcome...oh, its you again.

Loose Lips Charley: Dont tell anyone about that secret computer password.

Familiar Jane: You were so cute as a kid. Seeing you all grown up like this,
               its quite a difference

(Return to the Bar after the assembly in the Underground Warehouse)

Bartender: What is it? You back again? Arent you done with your business
           here?

Cordy: Were just here as customers today.

Bartender: Huh, is that so?

Cordy: This is a pretty boring town, isnt it?

Bartender: You ever thought about becoming a fighter in the arena? Youre
           pretty strong. I think you could clean up.

Cordy: Theres an arena in this city!?

Bartender: Shhh! Keep your voice down! Yeah, theres an arena. But the
           membership is very selective, so Im not supposed to talk about
           it much. But for you, Ill make an exception.

Cordy: A secret arena, eh? There must be a lot of top fighters there...Im
       down.

Bartender: Follow me.

(Move to the Arena)

Bartender: Alright, were here  the only arena in town.

Cordy: Just one thing, why did you decide to let a stranger like me in on
       this?

Bartender: Your eyes.

Cordy: My eyes?

Bartender: Those are the eyes of a veteran. Strong ones too. An arena needs
           strong warriors. Thats why I invite people like you. Yeah, here...
           Take this. Its a Dawn Star weapon. Use it well, and keep this
           place a secret. See ya later.

Sharp Joker: This place is kept secret from strangers.

Poor Man Woody: Hey heyyy, I didnt think Id blow all that cash. My whole
                months salarys gone.

Hotshot Henry: The rates here are higher than other arenas, but so is the
               skill level.

Tough Linda: Battle is all about your "ki-ai." Your "ki-ai." K.i.a.i.

(Upon leaving the area)

Lisa: Time to leave, Thomas?  

(Select YES)

Thomas: Yeah. Its a good time to meet up with Saribash and his boys. Lets
        move out.

INTERMISSION 20							[IN20]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DHAKA:

June 21, 2102 - 4:00 PM

Saribash: Lila...sob...why...Lilas...

Thomas: How was it, Griff?

Griff: No good... Lilas wanzer was completely immolated...I couldnt find
       the body...

Thomas: Ah...Dammit! I dont know who was behind this, but Ill make him
        pay!!

Griff: Anyhow, theres nothing we can say to Saribash. Lets give him some
       space...

Ash: Yeah...

(Go to Lisas Room)

Lisa: FENRIR wouldnt be here, would it?

Pike: Looks like they moved it in the day we wasted in Notun Comilla.

Lisa: If thats the case, what about the Deean Air Force Base...

Griff: H-hey you guys... What the hell are you doing planning at a time
       like this!

Pike: Griff...

Lisa: ...What happened to Lila is a pity...but...

Griff: A PITY!? Do you have any idea how Saribash must feel!? His daughter
       was killed right in front of his own eyes!! But you guys are just
       sitting here planning!?

Lisa: Griff!!

Griff: What!? If youve got something to say, then say it!!

Lisa: If we stop our search for FENRIR now, there will be even more victims...
      Not just Lila, so many more...

Griff: So, thats why...

Lisa: You might think Im cold-blooded...but I...

Pike: Ash... Sorry, but can you get Griff out of here?

Ash: Yeah... Come on Griff, lets go...

(Go to Maylans Room)

Maylan: What is it? 

Ash: Oh, its nothing in particular but...

Maylan: Ash...Did I just end up abandoning the Lieutenant Colonel in the
        end...?

Ash: ...

(Go to Amias Room)

Amia: Ah, Ash... What is it?

Ash: Its nothing, just came to check in on you.

Amia: ...I...always thought...

Ash: What?

Amia: The people of this country, theyve all got something to protect...
      Family, lovers, the state... But, I have nothing to protect other than
      my own life... But even so, here I am fighting in this country...

Ash: Thats...my fault...

Amia: No, its not. What I cant figure out, is why I like fighting here for
      some reason...I know Im fighting to protect something important now.
      But, I still dont know what that something is...

Ash: ...

(Go to Joyces Room)

Ash: So, this is where youve been.

Joyce: ............

Ash: ............

Joyce: ...Ash?

Ash: What is it, Joyce?

Joyce: Do you think he...Do you think Ven is still alive, or do you think he
       was burned to death... Along with Lila...

Ash: ............

(Move to Equipment Room)

Roswell: So Rocky, thats why I...think we oughta pull out of here.

Rocky: You mean abandon this country, turn tail and run...?

Roswell: Run... Isnt it clear its just a matter of time before we come up
         against something we cant handle...?

Ash: What are you talking about?

Rocky: A-Ah, Ash... Roswell was talking about leaving the country...

Roswell: Its obvious this coup never had anything to do with us to begin
         with. Are we just going to let ourselves get dragged further into
         it?

Rocky: But after all this, to just pretend we never had anything to do with
       it...Ash, what do you think...?

Ash: I...dont know...I really dont know what I should do...

Rocky: ...

(Talk to the Mechanic)

Mechanic: This is the password for the Taureau Corporation from E.C. Frances
          website. The data was in a computer the Revolutionary Army left
          behind...

(Return to Temporary HQ)

Thomas: Lisa! Come on!! Saribash is in no state to be dealing with that kind
        of thing!

Ash: What is it?

Pike: It looks like Saribash is going to give up on destroying the
      Revolutionary Army.

Ash: ...

Saribash: ...Im throwing in the towel. Let the O.C.U. and Revolutionary Army
          have their war.

Lisa: No, the war between the O.C.U. and the Revolutionary Army is about to
      come to an end. If the Revolutionary Army threatens the O.C.U. with
      FENRIR, this country will be taken over by a military junta. Are you
      just going to let that slide!? Even though you sacrificed so much to
      stop it!?

Saribash: ...what do you want from me...?

Lisa: Right now, youre the only one who can stop the Revolutionary Army. I
      need your help.

Saribash: So, if we get FENRIR back youll leave me alone!?

Guard: Boss, weve got trouble! Ven has shown up at the Deean Air Force
       Base!

Saribash: WHAT!?

Griff: Ven...

Saribash: Arrrghhhh!

Thomas: Hey! Saribash! Where are you going!?

Lisa: Lets follow him!

(Move to the Equipment Room)

Rocky: Saribash! Come on! Stop!

Saribash: Shut up! Get out of my fucking way! If you dont move, Ill run you
          over with this wanzer!

Thomas: Hes here!

Lisa: Whats this!?

Roswell: S-Saribash is dead-set on attacking Deean!

Saribash: Ill murder Ven! Dont try and stop me!

Ash: Stop! What are you going to do on your own?

Saribash: Destroying the Revolutionary Army! Isnt that just what you wanted,
          Lisa!? I didnt hear any complaints back then!

Lisa: Thats right! But, you need a strategy to fight! Just dying...

Saribash: I dont give a damn if I die!

Sayuri: You idiot!!

Saribash: !!

Lisa: ...!

Sayuri: If you died, it would just make Lila even more sad!! If... If you
        dont even understand that much, then I hope Ven kills you right
        away!! Good riddance!!

Saribash: ............

Sayuri: Y...Youre such a huge moron...sob...its because of idiots like
        you...sob...sob...

Saribash: ............

Lisa: I hope you can understand what Sayuri is trying to say, Saribash.

Saribash: ...yeah.

Lisa: Lets calm down and have a nice, rational, conversation in the HQ.
      Come on Sayuri, dont cry. Get everyone together for the meeting.

Sayuri: ...yeah...

Cordy: Ill help her out.

Lisa: Thanks...Come on Saribash, lets go.

(Move to the Temporary HQ)

Thomas: You calmed down yet, Saribash?

Saribash: Yeah...sorry about that.

Griff: But, can we really take on the Revolutionary Army by ourselves?

Cordy: The Revolutionary Army is collecting all the firepower from Rimian and
       other O.C.U. bases at Deean. If we can just beat them there, then
       victory will be in sight.

Roswell: But... The Revolutionary Army is also getting plenty of supplies
         from Intergehen, right? If we dont have the right firepower, then
         this fight will be hopeless.

Maylan: Well have to cut their supply lines.

Amia: Supply lines?

Maylan: Intergehen is getting supplies to the Revolutionary Army through
        tributaries of the Brahmaputra River. If we can cut that supply line,
        then the Revolutionary Armys fighting strength will be limited.

Rocky: Why arent they just delivering straight to Deean...?

Maylan: Intergehen likes to keep all their operations covert. They even
        transport their goods in camouflaged freighters.

Pike: Whens the next shipment?

Maylan: Judging from the Revolutionary Armys current state of affairs, Id
        say within the next couple of days.

Thomas: A stakeout, eh...

Lisa: Lets go. Maylan, do you know what kind of escort theyll have?

Maylan: I have a password for accessing that data. If they havent changed
        it, I should be able to find out.

Saribash: Im going too.

Maylan: Forget it. If you leave Dhaka, the Lieutenant Colonel will definitely
        retake it.

Sayuri: That means you should stay here and keep watch.

Saribash: ...

(Leave the Temporary HQ)

Joyce: Ash!

Ash: ...Joyce

Joyce: What were you thinking? Trying to leave me behind like that.

Ash: Ah, sorry...you okay?

Joyce: ...Yeah, Im fine.

Ash: Alright then.

Joyce: By the way, where are Thomas and Roswell, and Rocky too?

Sayuri: Thomas is with Saribash. The other two...come to think of it, I
        havent seen them.

(Return to Equipment Room)

Sayuri: Hey, you guys, weve got a bit of a job to do. You mind coming along?

Roswell: Is Thomas coming too?

Sayuri: No, he said hes sitting it out.

Roswell: Well, even when the request if coming from you, Miss Sayuri, if the
         boss isnt going, Im not either.

Sayuri: Im not requesting.

Lisa: What about you, Rocky?

Rocky: Is Ash going...?

Ash: Yeah.

Rocky: Well, Ill go too then...Id like to be as strong as you...

Ash: ...?

Rocky: Oh, its nothing...

(Move to the Shop)

Ricks Dad Dan: Welcome...

Dans Son Rick: Welcome! Hey you guys, you should buy some of the weapons I
                made!

Griff: Whats with this kid?

Ricks Dad Dan: Gr, Rick! I thought I told you to stop! Ah, dont mind him,
                he always gets in the way of business.

Dans Son Rick: Dammit Dad, youre the one whos always getting in my way!!

Ricks Dad Dan: Wha- Rick, where are you going!?

Dans Son Rick: Shut up, Dad!!

Griff: Hey hey, what the hell is this all about?

Ricks Dad Dan: My apologies, sir. Thats my son, Rick.

Griff: Didnt he say something about buying weapons?

Ricks Dad Dan: Well, ysee he makes wanzer weapons and parts himself.
                Theyre nothing special, of course.

Griff: ...

Ash: Where ya going, Griff?

Griff: Kids his age have all kinds of problems. Im gonna go talk to him.

(Talk to Ash)

Ash: You gonna leave that kid alone?

(Select NO)

Griff: Nah, hes somewhere around here...Im gonna keep looking.

Ash: Sure...

(Leave the Temporary HQ)

Griff: ...Oh? So, this is where you were. Hey kid, you said you make weapons?

Dans Son Rick: Im no kid! Call me Rick!

Griff: Listen, Rick, you cant get in the way of your fathers business. The
       adult world is...

Dans Son Rick: Shut up! Dont treat me like an idiot just cause Im a kid!
                I can make some good weapons, but Dad wont even take a look
                at them. He thinks I cant make anything good just because
                Im a kid. I wanna have my own store someday. I need to make
                a really great weapon so my Dad will recognize my skills...
                Thats...why...

Griff: Rick, you really do respect your Dad, huh...

Dans Son Rick: Yeah...but theres no way I can make a real weapon with my
                allowance. The weapon I tried to sell you was just a toy.
                But I can make a real one! Look! Ive got the plans and
                everything!

Griff: Whoa, you drew these up? ...Pretty impressive.

Dans Son Rick: But, Ive got no cash and...my Dad wont pay any attention
                to me...

Griff: Alright, I guess Ill just have to give you the money then!

Dans Son Rick: Really!?

Griff: But, dont tell your dad.

(Give Rick 1,000)

Dans Son Rick: Thanks! Once Im done, youll be the first to get one!

Griff: Man, Im really soft on kids... Even other peoples kids. Whats a man
       to do...

(Return to the Equipment Room)

Ash: So howd it go, Griff?

Griff: Oh, good.

Ricks Dad Dan: My apologies again, sir, for your trouble.

Griff: Oh, its no problem.

(Move to the Eldred Bar)

Bartender: Weve had a lot of unemployed people in here lately. You got any
           good news to break up the gloomy atmosphere?

Authoritative Davis: So, the Revolutionary Army has been driven out of the
                     capital then.

Loser Bill: "I finally found a job!" were my happy thoughts for a while. But
            this time, the office got blown up.  Sigh...

Miriam the Mom: My husband went to work in the Middle East 3 years ago. But,
                because of the civil war, hes had a hard time getting back
                home.

Smitten Tracy: The Revolutionary Army lost? It must be because the great
               Lieutenant Colonel Mackarge wasnt in the fight. No doubt
               about it!

(Move to the Arena)

Spectator Scott: Whooooo! Thats it! Get im!!

Beef Butcher Mack: Pft! Is that guy eating his beef!? Hes so damn weak.

Average Jules: The government and police have already lost all their power.
               Without those, you cant really call this city a capital, can
               ya?

Man Hunting Kate: The Revolutionary Army lost? Well, Im not interested in
                  Revolutionary Army officers anymore, then.

(Upon leaving the area)

Sayuri: Everyone read to go?

(Select YES)

Sayuri: Understood. Well then, lets depart.

INTERMISSION 21							[IN21]

DHAKA:

June 22, 2102 - 3:00 AM

(Move to the Bar)

Peeping Tom: I hacked into a surveillance satellite today. There was this
             weird unit data on there. Ill give it to ya for 500. Buy it
             for 500? 

             (Select YES)

             Hm, so I can sell this kinda stuff after all. Well, Im sure
             guys like you can make good use of it.

(Move to the Temporary HQ)

Saribash: So, you werent able to cut the supply line after all?

Lisa: The enemy was using transport aircraft. Burg Transportation doesnt
      have any way of touching them.

Thomas: No shit.

Maylan: But since we hit their transport, Intergehen is bound to stop their
        supply drops for a while.

Cordy: Youre saying nows our chance?

Griff: But, Deean is fucking huge. How are we going to manage to take it?

Roswell: What if we were to create confusion among our enemies?

Thomas: You got any good suggestions?

Roswell: As a matter of fact I doooo.  

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SPECIAL EVENT 13 - Roswell's Plan

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DHAKA:

(Temporary HQ)

Thomas: I gotcha. We do Roswells plan and well be fine. Gwahahaha!

Lisa: What do you mean "fine"... Theyve got fighter jets stationed on base,
      radar, and AA guns too...

Thomas: But theyd never expect a single transport to attack them, right? And
        if we come in at low altitude, well have a high chance of success.

Saribash: But, I dont have any transport planes.

Joyce: We can use that plane, and our friend, the pilot.

Amia: Wha- Wait a second! You dont mean...

Joyce: The transport plane we stole from the aircraft carrier should still
       be on the coast. All it needs is some fuel and I think it could fly.

Maylan: And the pilot?

Joyce: Oh, here she is...

Amia: Wait a minute! Im not the kind of pilot who could pull off a low
      altitude assault! That kind of acrobatics is beyond me!!

Joyce: You have the fuel, Saribash?

Saribash: Yeah, Ive got some.

Thomas: Well, its settled then. Take a nap, get ready, and were good to go!

Amia: Waitttt... Listen to meee...

Roswell: Itll be fine. The Marines have solid planes. Its not like itll
         fall apart in the air or anything.

Amia: Thats not what Im worried about!!

(Move to the Equipment Room)

Dan's Son Rick: Sorry...I couldnt make anything with the money you gave me...
                Ill do better next time!

Dan's Son Rick: Oh, its you?  

(Give Rick 2,000)

Dan's Son Rick: Just wait a bit longer. Ill have a weapon ready soon...

(Upon leaving the area)

Thomas: Well, shall we leave then!?

Ash: How long do you think itll take?

Rocky: Getting there...fuelling up...coming back...over half a day, Id say...

Lisa: Everyone ready? 

(Select YES)

Saribash: Are you sure you dont want me to come?

Thomas: Youve got to protect the city. Alright!? Were not messing around
        here!

Saribash: Yeah...I got it.

MISSION 22 - Alordesh Coast

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTERMISSION 22							[IN22]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DHAKA:

June 22, 2102 - 7:00 PM

(Move to the Temporary HQ)

Saribash: Youre late. What happened?

Lisa: Yeah, this is a bit...

Thomas: Has the Revolutionary Army been moving at all?

Saribash: Not recently. According to my scouts at Deean, theyre focused on
          shoring up their defenses.

Ash: Do they know about our attack plans?

Saribash: I dont think so. They havent been taking any extra precautions.

Pike: We should assault Deean as soon as we can. Thomas, are you ready to
      carry out the operation?

Thomas: You betcha!

Roswell: Er, Im the one who came up with this plan.

Thomas: Shut up, Roswell.

Sayuri: Lets get started.

Thomas: Alright, well break up into 3 units. Amias unit will assault the
        base via transport aircraft. Next, me and Saribashs units will
        attack the front gate. Once hes confirmed weve broken through the
        front gate, Ashs unit will assault the eastern warehouse area,
        securing FENRIR and General Gwianda.

(After forming up the three units)

Thomas: Ashs unit and my unit will depart for Deean at 2 AM. The operation
        will be carried out at 6 AM! Ash!

Ash: What?

Thomas: As of now, you will be taking command of this operation.

Ash: Me!?

Thomas: Youre the leader of the final assault group. It makes sense.

Ash: But, I...

Thomas: Ash, if our assaults fail, you take the survivors and withdraw. You
        got that?

Ash: ...I got it.

Thomas: Saribash! Do you have the enemy forces' strength data?

Saribash: Yeah, Ive got the password too. Theres data for the bomber hangar
          and the command tower.

Thomas: Alright! This concludes the strategy meeting! Everyone, get ready for
        battle!

(Leave the Conference Room)

Rocky: Ash.

Ash: Whats up, Rocky?

Rocky: Could you come to the equipment room later...alone?

Ash: Sure, but whats this about?

Rocky: Ill tell you when you get there...

(Move to the Equipment Room)

Rocky: So, you came...Ash...

Ash: Yeah, so whats this about?

Rocky: Listen to me, Ash!!

Ash: Eh? What is it?

Rocky: You... Youve got a past thats too awful to talk about, even to us...
       But even so youre the kind of man who is kind to everyone you meet...
       Looking at a man like you, I...

Ash: H-hang on Rocky. What...

Rocky: I understand how you feel... I doubt youll share my feelings... But,
       surviving tomorrows battle will be tougher than anything weve been
       through before... Thats why before I die I want to let you know how
       I feel...

Ash: Rocky...

Rocky: You dont need to say anything, Ash...

(Talk to Dans Son Rick)

Dans Son Rick: Sorry...I couldnt make anything with the money you
                gave me...Ill do better next time!

Dans Son Rick: Oh, its you?

(Give Rick 2,500)

Dan's Son Rick: Just wait a bit longer. Ill have a weapon ready soon...

(Go to Lisas Room)

Lisa: Ah, its you Ash. Leaving already?

Ash: N-nah, not yet...

Sayuri: ...You nervous?

Ash: N-no, its not that.

Lisa: Ash, Ill give you a tip. They say that a commander always has to
      maintain his cool, but honestly, thats a lie.

Ash: A lie?

Lisa: Yeah! Take a look at Thomas. Always spouting his lousy jokes!!

Ash: ...

Lisa: But, when it comes to tactical operations hes more reliable than
      anyone else. Am I right?

Ash: Yeah... For sure.

Lisa: Or take me. When Im about to go into battle, my legs start shaking.
      Since Im in a wanzer no one can see it, but they do.

Sayuri: Whoa! I never knew!!

Cordy: Mine shake too.

Sayuri: No way!!

Lisa: Haha... So listen Ash, even though youre nervous right now, you
      might have the makings of a great commander.

Ash: Thanks Lisa, I feel a bit better now.

Lisa: Glad I could help.

(Go to Maylans Room)

Ash: Maylan.

Maylan: Whats up, Ash?

Ash: What do you think Ven is doing now?

Maylan: What are you getting at?

Ash: Which do you think is right? What Ven is doing, or what were doing?

Maylan: Each of us is a bit right and a bit wrong. Thats how I see it.
        People who cant accept that, they have a hard time carrying on
        living...

(Move to Amias Room)

Ash: Amia.

Amia: Oh, Ash. Im ready for this!

Ash: Amia...

Amia: Its okay. Im still a bit scared but... But since weve survived
      coming this far, Im sure itll be fine. So you hold up the command
      end and Ill hold up the other!

Ash: Yeah.

(Move to Joyces Room)

Joyce: Yooo! Mr. Commander, sir.

Ash: Cut it out, Joyce.

Joyce: Hahaha, Im glad for ya. Its a rare event!

Ash: ...Joyce, do you think that Ven is really out there at Deean?

Joyce: ...if hes not, Ill be in trouble. Since Im the one whos gonna
       kill him.

Ash: Joyce...

Joyce: Even if he is being used by Intergehen, he still started all this.
       Hes the one who bears responsibility...

Ash: ...

(Leave the Temporary HQ after going to everyone's rooms)

Master Mailman Malone: ...excuse me, but would you happen to be Mr. Rocky?

Rocky: ...Yeah, why?

Master Mailman Malone: Oh, thank God. I finally found you. A letter for
                       Mr. Rocky, right here.

Rocky: A letter for me?

Master Mailman Malone: Yes, thats right. Whew, thats all my deliveries for
                       the day. Now to relax with a cold one at the bar...
                       See you around.

Roswell: Whos the letter from?

Rocky: From Gleny.

Thomas: Gleny, eh? I seem to remember...that being one of your old pals,
        right Rocky?

Roswell: A pal of Rockys and mine, too.

Rocky: Yeah. Last I heard, he had devoted himself to clearing landmines.

Sayuri: So this Gleny friend of yours, he was from the O.C.U. too? What kind
        of person was he?

Rocky: He was a landmine specialist. Unmatched. But, he decided to leave the
       O.C.U. back then.

Sayuri: Why would a specialist...?

Rocky: His landmines, they killed a lot of civilians...

Thomas: So, Gleny decided to take responsibility for his actions and
        resign...

Rocky: Yeah, he always had a strong sense of justice.

Roswell: So, what does the letter say?

Glenys Letter: "...Hows it going, Rocky? Im muddling along here...If
                I could, Id like to see you one more time..."

Thomas: Sounds like your typical letter from an old friend.

Rocky: This last line... "If I could, Id like to see you one more time"
       Sounds like hes caught up...in something...

Sayuri: So hes saying hed like to see you again, but he cant...

Rocky: Gleny... What did you get yourself into......?

(Move to the Bar)

Peeping Tom: Hack into a lot of databases and systems, and youll make a
             lot of discoveries. This time around, I got the address and
             password of the Naxos Corporation site. This one is definitely
             worth it. How about it, for 500?

             (Choose YES)

             Cheers. Hi-ho, back to work I go.

(Talk to Master Mailman Malone)

Rocky: Ive got a question for you. Where was this letter sent from?

Master Mailman Malone: Hmmm, it was...from the temporary military hospital
                       if I remember correctly.

Rocky: A hospital...

Thomas: So, something happened to Gleny?

Roswell: Makes me worried. Lets go check it out.

Rocky: Is it okay guys, for my sake?

Thomas: Introduce your old friend to your new ones. I dont mind.

(Move to the Temporary Military Hospital)

Thomas: Whoa, didnt know they had these kind of facilities.

Roswell: There sure are a lot of wounded. How are we supposed to find Gleny
         among all these people?

Rocky: Its been 7 years, but if I just get a glance, Ill know him.

Injured Soldier Ricks: Uh...ugh...sob...Mother...sob...

Injured Soldier Bart: Gleny? ...Hm, there was a new guy brought in here
                      recently... Im almost certain he was called Gleny...
                      Isnt he over in that bed there?

Injured Soldier Chuck: Thanks to the Revolutionary Armys bombing, the citys
                       hospitals were destroyed. This is a temporary one.

Gleny: Rocky...

Rocky: ...! Youre...Gleny?

Sayuri: How...horrible...

Gleny: ...Its been a while, Rocky.

Rocky: Gleny...your legs...?

Gleny: Yeah... Thats thanks to a screw-up of mine while clearing land mines.

Rocky: A specialist, like you, screwed up?

Gleny: I wasnt paying attention. But, Im just lucky to be alive, right? 
       Theres something Ive still got to do...I cant kick the bucket here.

Rocky: ...Something you still have to do... I cant believe that youd screw
       up your job. What happened?

Gleny: ...Oh it was nothing in particular. Well, let down your guard and
       this is what happens. Im just glad...I could see ya.

Rocky: Yeah, me too...take care, man.

Gleny: Yeah, Ill send ya another letter.

(Leave the Temporary Military Hospital)

Thomas: Well, should we get going then... What is it, Rocky?

Rocky: Hes definitely caught up in something...for him to make a mistake
       like that...and to have something he still has to do...?

Sayuri: ...his legs...

Rocky: Yeah...for him to have lost both legs... Anyhow, lets go. If we get
       the chance, well come back here.

O.C.U. DEEAN AIR FORCE BASE:

(Command Room)

Gwianda: So, weve lost?

Ven: ...Yes.

Gwianda: Lets make for the main Intergehen base. Prepare the helicopter.

Ven: You still intend to carry on with this!? The revolution has failed!

Henschel: To end things now would be meaningless, Ven.

Gwianda: Its just as Mr. Henschel says. We still have FENRIR.

Ven: FENRIR!! You fool! You wont stop at burning the capital with your
     bombers, but now go so far as to use that disgusting device!?

Gwianda: It is all for the Motherland.

Ven: No!! All that will accomplish is burning this country to the ground.

Gwianda: If this country is destroyed, we will simply capture another. Such
         is the power of FENRIR.

Ven: ...!!

Gwianda: Prepare the helicopter!! Ven!

Ven: ...Yes, sir.

Gwianda: Come with me.

Henschel: No, I have a separate means of escape. Let us meet again later,
          General.

O.C.U. DEEAN AIR FORCE BASE OUTSKIRTS:

(Command Room)

Sayuri: Lisa!

Lisa: Howd it go?

Cordy: We didn't have much luck. There's barely anything left from the
       wreckage.

Sayuri: But, from some of the wreckage we can confirm that FENRIR was
        destroyed.

Lisa: ......I see......

Joyce: Was Ven the one who wrecked FENRIR?

Maylan: It seems that way. The Lieutenant Colonel was finally able to see
        that the revolution had come to differ from his ideals.

Griff: So, thats why he offed General Gwianda...

Amia: But, Ven was able to escape. He left with a company of Revolutionary
      Army troops.

Joyce: Is that guy still gonna keep on fighting...?

Ash: He doesnt stand a chance at winning with just one company. Weve got
     a chance at convincing him to back down.

Thomas: Alright, back to work then!

Saribash: No, I want all of you to leave the country now.

Ash: Saribash!

Saribash: From here on in, this is a personal matter between me and Ven.

Griff: Hey now, are you sure about this?

Saribash: ...whatever your reasons were, I appreciate all the help youve
          given me up to here...but...but, when I look at your faces...Lila...
          I cant help but remember her...and its too hard.

Griff: ...

Saribash: Please...

Thomas: ...alright Saribash, I got it.

Saribash: ...Im sorry...

Lisa: Ill contact the aircraft carrier from here. Well have them come pick
      us up from Bornea. Would you mind letting us use the underground
      railway from the capital to Bornea?

Saribash: Sure.

Lisa: Ill make the call. Since well probably be leaving tomorrow, everyone
      can take it easy for the rest of today.

(Move to the Hangar)

Amia: Look, Saribash is pricing all these stored Revolutionary Army weapons
      for sale!

Saribash: Of course I am! I need the money for rebuilding the country after
          all!

(Shop Dialog)

Mechanic: Heh heh, hey there. The weapons you guys got in the last fight are
          here. Hmm...now where were they...ah, here they are. An SN-120P
          Shield...a Restore ALL...annnd...three Repair ALLs...yep, thats
          it.

(Talk to Mechanic)

Mechanic: Just what Id expect from an Air Force base. Theyve got the
          password and address for Tel Aviv Aerospace.

Mechanic: Well, everything here technically belongs to the O.C.U. Air Force,
          but were just going to be borrowing it from them until they get
          back on their feet. Not that we got their permission to do that.

(Choose to rest)

June 23, 2102 - 11:00 PM

(Lisas Room)

Cordy: You seem a bit down Lisa, even though you got just what you wanted
       and FENRIR has been wiped off the face of the earth.

Lisa: ...The O.C.U. isnt going to leave this country alone.

Cordy: Yeah, youre right. Theyll force the country to accept its dependant
       status more than ever.

Lisa: All we might have accomplished is ensuring that this country becomes
      even more impoverished than before. Have I just been a pawn...forcing
      the O.C.U. ideology that all problems will be solved through the
      unification of mankind on these people?

Sayuri: Lisa...

Lisa: What a joke! To think that up until today, I was worried about what
      the enemy would do this countrys future...Im just not cut out for
      the intelligence business...

Cordy: That might be true.

Sayuri: How can you say that, Cordy!?

Cordy: But, youre a better human being for it, Lisa. If you didnt feel
       anything after what has happened Id hate you. In fact, Id probably
       want to kill you.

Lisa: ...

Cordy: Youre really a kind woman.

Sayuri: Maybe Ive been a bit cold about all this.

Lisa: No, I dont think so. Those tears you cried in front of Saribash were
      real.

Sayuri: Thanks, Lisa.

(Thomas Room)

Roswell: Boss, do we really gotta leave this country?

Rocky: Didnt you want to leave...?

Roswell: Nah, well...it's just, it's just leaving like this...ahh, isn't it
         kind of a shame...eh, boss?

Thomas: What's this "eh, boss?" huh? Shut up and get to bed!

Rocky: I understand how Roswell feels...Thomas, isnt there anything we can
       do...?

Thomas: Like what!? ...Look, it's not like I want to leave like this either.
        But if Saribash doesnt want us here, then what the hell am I
        supposed to do!?

Roswell: But, well...

Thomas: Shut it! Ive had enough of this shit! Im going to bed.

Rocky: ...

(Hangar)

Joyce: What are you doing here?

Amia: Just take a look in front of you. Im working on my machine.

Joyce: But, were not fighting any more battles, are we?

Amia: I know. But, she was the only thing that kept me alive back there. I
      feel like I at least owe her a tune up.

Joyce: Hm, I see, I see.

Amia: ...

Joyce: What, are you angry or something?

Amia: Joyce, do you still remember about Lila?

Joyce: Whats this all of a sudden?

Amia: I know that this is eating you up, Joyce. Its not just me - I think
      everyone else knows too.

Joyce: Tomorrow...tomorrow...Im going to leave this country and wipe the
       slate clean. Im going to forget all this ever happened.

Amia: Joyce...

(Command Room)

Maylan: I bear responsibility for this coup detat. Please let me stay here
        and fight.

Saribash: Sure, its your choice. But, be certain about it. From here on
          in, the O.C.U. will be coming in droves.

Maylan: I understand.

Ash: Saribash.

Saribash: Ah, Ash.

Ash: Im an Alordeshi too. You still wont let me stay?

Saribash: No way.

Ash: Why!?

Saribash: You have somewhere to go home to.

Ash: ...

Saribash: Things in this country are only going to get worse from here on
          in...I dont want to see you suffer the same way Ven did.

Ash: ...

June 24, 2102 - 6:00 AM

Thomas: If youre ready to go, well head to the capital first.

Joyce: Not that weve really got much getting ready to do.

(Move to the Equipment Room)

Dans Son Rick: Sorry...I couldnt make anything with the money you gave
                me...Ill do better next time!

Dans Son Rick: Oh, its you?  

(Give Rick 3,000)

Dan's Son Rick: Just wait a bit longer. Ill have a weapon ready soon...

(Move to the Arena)

Spectator Scott: If I had to choose, Id say I like team battles better.
                 Yeah, team battles are solid.

Beef Butcher Mack: Th-that guy is so weak. He must be eating port, no doubt
                   about it. Eat some beef! Beef dammit!!

Average Jules: How long will the good days last?

Man Hunting Kate: Itd be best to marry an arena fighter, for sure. Theyre
                  loaded after all.

(Move to the Bar)

Sayuri: It looks like that man isn't here.

(A man in a suit approaches Lisa)

Man: You're Lisa, right?

Lisa: And you are?

Man: I was sent here by the man you were supposed to meet. Please follow me.
     I'll bring you to meet him.

Lisa: If he's not coming here, then we have nothing left to discuss.

Man: I see...

(The man in the suit leaves the Bar)

Bartender: The unemployment rate this year is almost double what it was last
           year. What are my customers going to do?

Authoritative Davis: So, the Revolutionary Army leader Ven issued a statement
                     saying the revolution has failed, eh?

Loser Bill: Sigh... Someone give me some work...Im hungry. But before you do
            that, someone pay my tab here will ya?

Miriam the Mom: It looks like theyre going to cut off my temporary housing.
                I really dont want to live in the same space as strangers.

Smitten Tracy: Im sure Ven still has something he can do for us. I really
               believe that.

(Attempt to leave the Bar)

Man: Lisa!

Lisa: You!

Man: S-sorry, he was in the bar so...

Lisa: Who's "he"? Who are you for that matter?

Man: Hurry, come this way! He's noticed us!

(Move to the Arena)

Sayuri: No one's here.

Man: The arena is closed for maintenance at this hour. The fighters and
     customers are both sent out. That's why I can show you this without
     being found.

(Leave the Arena)

Master Mailman Malone: Hello, Mr. Rocky? I have another letter for you.

Rocky: It's from Gleny...

Master Mailman Malone: There you go. Whew, that's all my deliveries for the
		       day. Nothing like a cold one at the end of a hard
		       day's work. See you around.
Rocky: ............

Roswell: What is it this time?

Thomas: Rocky, read it to us.

Rocky: Sure...

Gleny's Letter: "By the time you have received this letter, I will already
		have departed from this world. However, don't be sad. Every
		man who clears mines knows that someday his time will come.
		I feel like this somehow counts for atonement to all the
		people who were killed by my mines. So please, don't be sad.

		...do you remember the man named Crow we court-marshaled and
                put in jail? That mercenary who deployed mines near cities
                and killed so many civilians. Since then, Crow has escaped
                from prison. I chased him down...but in the end, he did this
                to me. I couldn't beat Crow's mines. Now that I think about
                it, he must have shown himself just to lure me into this
                trap. Crow still bears a grudge against us. He's hanging
                around the outskirts of the capital. Don't pursue him. I
                should know. I'm the battle specialist, after all...

		P.S.

		I miss those days we spent together. That was the best time
                of my life. If only I could return to them, I would..."

Thomas: ...he's dead...?

Rocky: ...sob...sob...Gleny...

Sayuri: He certainly was...in terrible shape back there...

Roswell: ...Rocky...

Rocky: ...would you leave me alone for a while?

Ash: Yeah...we'll be at the agit...

Rocky: .........sniff...sob...Gleny.........Crow...that bastard...

(Talk to Master Mailer Malone at the Bar)

Master Mailer Malone: Ah, a beer after work is just great.

(Move to the Temporary HQ)

Ash: Are you okay about Gleny yet?

Rocky: Just give me a while longer to calm down.

Ash: Rocky...Dont go and do something stupid.

(Upon leaving the area)

Rocky: Gleny...I will avenge you...

Thomas: Hey, hey, where are you going off on your own?

Roswell: What are you doing running off without telling us? That's cold, man.

Rocky: You two...what are you...?

Thomas: Hey now, we're best friends. Your vengeance is our vengeance.

Roswell: Yeah, us three will take this Crow guy down.

Rocky: ...alright, let's go... You both ready?

(Select YES)

Thomas: Alright, lets do this! Vengeance for Gleny!!

Ash: Hm? Did you three go somewhere?

Thomas: Yeah, you might say that. Eh Rocky! Roswell!

Rocky: Yeah, you might indeed.

Roswell: That you might.

Sayuri: Hmmm, you three are really weird.

Amia: You all look so cheery.

Rocky: Is that so?

Thomas: Gwahahahaha!

(Go to the Underground Railroad)

Saribash: Ill come with you as far as Bornea.

Thomas: You dont get it, do you?

Saribash: What?

Thomas: You really just dont want to see us go. Am I right?

Saribash: No way. I cant wait until I dont have to look at your face
          anymore.

Thomas: Ahh, is that so. Well, well alright then. Is everyone ready to go?

Thomas: Lets head for Bornea.

(Select YES)

(Move to the Temporary HQ)

Thomas: It looks like Ven is still at it. Is there any way we can talk him
        out of it? 

Saribash: I doubt we could until the very last of his fighting strength was
          gone.

Joyce: Well then, I guess well have to take him out.

Griff: What are you talking about?

Joyce: Our last job. We know where Ven is, so we ought to completely destroy
       his forces.

Sayuri: But since we let that commander go, wont Ven have already left that
        place?

Pike: Or he could be waiting for us there. We can only go and find out.

Rocky: You know the place on the map...?

Saribash: Yeah... Of course I do.

Thomas: Well if were going to do this, we should hurry. Lisa, it looks like
        our return home is going to be a bit delayed. Is that okay?

Lisa: Sure. I wanted to talk to Ven one more time anyhow, so it works just
      fine.

(Move to the Equipment Room)

Dans Son Rick: Hey you guys! This time I...

Ricks Dad Dan: Rick!! What have you been up to! Where did you get the money
                to make something like that!?

Dans Son Rick: Er...

Griff: ...sorry, sir. But it was me...

Ricks Dad Dan: Rick!! How can you just take money from strangers like that!

Griff: No, youve got it wrong...Rick...

Dans Son Rick: Father! In the future I want to be a store owner like you! I
                want to make my own weapons and parts for sale!

Ricks Dad Dan: Well then, if you worked for me...

Dans Son Rick: If I always work under you, Ill never surpass you!

Ricks Dad Dan: Rick...

Griff: Im sorry sir, but sometimes you should pay attention to your sons
       accomplishments. Rick has made some pretty amazing weapons. He just
       wanted your recognition. Thats why he worked so hard.

Ricks Dad Dan: Rick...Im sorry...

Dans Son Rick: ...Its okay, Dad. Forget about that and take a look at
                this weapon!

Ricks Dad Dan: ......yeah, this is good. Ill start selling it right away,
                but this angle should be more like this...

Dans Son Rick: Yeah, youre right! Go Dad!

Griff: Ill see you later, Rick. Im sure youll be a great man like your
       father is in no time.

Dans Son Rick: Wait a sec. Take this! Im sure itll help you out!

Griff: Whoa, this is something else. 

Dans Son Rick: Right! I put everything I had into it! The super limited
                edition  Jaboa!!

Griff: Rick, youre quite the craftsman. Ill put this to good use.

(Upon leaving the area)

Saribash: Ready to go?

SUPPLY UNIT CAMP:

June 25, 2102 - 4:00 AM

Pike: The Revolutionary Army wasnt supposed to have possession of a
      space-capable rocket. It must have been Intergehen that launched it.

Sayuri: So, Intergehen was set up right here all along...

Griff: But, they wont have any unmanned weapons that FENRIR can control,
       right?

Lisa: Its the possibility that FENRIR will take control of other artificial
      satellites that is frightening. That is, of course, if FENRIR is on
      board that rocket.

Roswell: So, how can we stop FENRIR if its been launched up into space?

Pike: The system can only be activated by a human operator. Isnt that right,
      Lisa?

Saribash: So, that operator would be Ven?

Lisa: I really cant imagine that...

Pike: But, it did seem like he knew who would be operating the system.

Thomas: Whatever the case, we have to take down Ven. Saribash, do you know
        where Ven will be hiding?

Saribash: Yeah... Its an old Alordesh military munitions dump. But, you
          guys...

Thomas: Hey, stop right there. You should know that this is unfinished
        business for us too.

Saribash: ...Alright.

(Move to the Equipment Booth)

Mechanic: Ive got a top rate password here for you. Its for the Kirishima
          Heavy Industries site. Kirishima has one heck of a site, so please
          go check it out. (Address: KIRISIMA)

(Talk to the Mechanic again)

Mechanic: This area used to be a heavy industry zone. But as the recession
          caused factories to rust out, one by one all the inhabitants left.
          Now this is the most run down part of the country...

(Upon leaving the area)

Joyce: Do you think that Ven can be persuaded to surrender, Saribash?

Saribash: Ill do what I can. But that guy is just as stubborn as I am, so...

Joyce: Lila...she said...that you loved Ven as a boy just as much as you
       loved her.

Saribash: ......she said that, huh......

Joyce: Do you hate him?

Saribash: I can hate Ven for the sake of all the people who have died in
          this coup detat. However, at the same time, I also love him like
          my own son... If someone has to kill Ven, Ill do it...

Joyce: Saribash...

Saribash: Its ironic. Whether I hate him or love him, I have to carry on
          fighting him.

Saribash: Lila...

Lila: ...

Amia: Her injuries have been properly treated.

Joyce: Will she regain consciousness?

Amia: I cant tell here. Shell need to be examined at a hospital...

Thomas: Well then, lets get her to one.

Roswell: Buttt...What about FENRIR? Ven didnt have the activation device for
         it.

Saribash: Ill leave FENRIR to the O.C.U. Lisa, contact the O.C.U. and request
          an attack on Intergehen.

Ash: Saribash!

Saribash: I understand how you feel. But even so, without the strength of the
          O.C.U., we wont be able to do this.

Ash: ...

Lisa: Alright, Ill contact General Chang-Jang directly on satellite phone
      and get him to issue the order.

(Communicate with General Chang-Jang)

Chang-Jang: Are you alright, Captain?

Lisa: Yes, Im fine sir, but more importantly...

Chang-Jang: I know. We have a lock on the satellite carrying FENRIR already.

Lisa: Well then, shouldnt you fire an anti-satellite missile at it...

Chang-Jang: That wont be necessary. The FENRIR launch is going exactly
            according to plan.

Lisa: What...did you just say?

Chang-Jang: Lisa, evacuate from Alordesh immediately. The official test will
            begin soon.

Lisa: Test?

Chang-Jang: Once you return, Ill explain everything. You need to hurry back
            here...

Lisa: General!! General!! ............

Sayuri: What...was the General talking about...?

Roswell: B-b-b-boss! T-t-this is bad! E-e-enemies are inbound!

Thomas: Enemies!? Didnt we already destroy the entire Revolutionary Army!?

Lisa: !! Intergehen...

Joyce: Intergehen is attacking?

Amia: What do we do?

Thomas: All we can do is drive them back!! Saribash! Let me lead the attack!

Saribash: Alright. But Im coming too!

INTERMISSION 28							[IN28]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUPPLY UNIT CAMP:

Lisa: Theres no doubt about it. FENRIR was launched in order to conduct
      field testing here in Alordesh.

Amia: Field testing?

Lisa: A test of whether FENRIRs automated units could prevail over an army
      of manned units.

Maylan: So our coup detat...

Pike: ...was a red herring to allow for FENRIRs launch preparations.

Lisa: And if FENRIR was thought to be created and launched by the
      Revolutionary Army, no one would suspect the O.C.U.s role...

Pike: And so a test of the O.C.U. military versus FENRIR is about to begin.
      Right here in Alordesh!

Thomas: Then once the test is over FENRIR and the Revolutionary Army will have
        been disposed of, and all evidence of the truth will have been
        perfectly erased...Ive never heard of such a terrible plot!

Rocky: Isnt there something we can do...?

Ash: Lets head for the rocket launch site. Maybe theres something we can do
     there.

Saribash: Enough!!

Thomas: Saribash...

Saribash: Its enough...you guys have done enough now...so just hurry up and
          get out of Alordesh...

Ash: ...

Lisa: In any case, Ill contact the Monto. They might know something about
      what FENRIR is doing...

(Communicate with the Monto Aircraft Carrier)

O.C.U. Soldier: Just a moment ago, we received a declaration of war from an
                unidentified force. Forces from the O.C.U. bases weve
                liberated and scrambled forces from the South China Sea Fleet
                are planned to respond to the threat.

Lisa: The South China Sea Fleet...This is too big...

Saribash: ...

O.C.U. Soldier: Weve confirmed through aerial reconnaissance that the enemy
       possesses a massive force. Even the number of forces were despatching
       might not be enough to handle it.

(Communicate with O.C.U. Intelligence)

......

Sayuri: It seems like all the satellite lines are down.

(Upon leaving the area)

Saribash: Anyhow, you guys should hurry up and get the hell out of here.

Thomas: What are you going to do?

Saribash: Ill return to the capital and try to build up its defenses. Ill
          also help people flee the country. I might not make it in time
          though...

Ash: Im not giving up! I made a promise to Ven! Ill stop that damn FENRIR!!

Saribash: Forget it! Its not worth stopping if you have to die to do it!

Thomas: Well, see ya later then. Hey, Rocky, Roswell, get ready to launch
        an attack.

Saribash: Thomas!!

Lisa: Send an email to General Chang-Jang saying "Were heading to
      Intergehens headquarters."

Saribash: Lisa, you too...

Thomas: Gwahaha, Saribash! It looks like youve lost this one!

Lisa: Its my duty to stop FENRIR. Dont get in my way.

Ash: Listen to us, Saribash.

Saribash: Yeah...Yeah! I wont stop ya! ...Ill thank ya! Thanks, everyone.

Joyce: If thats decided, then lets get ready for battle!! Are your

Pike: Looks like the pressure I was able to call in from the CIU worked. But,
      I think thats about all its going to buy us.

Lisa: You guys should get ready to leave here too.

Rocky: You gonna go on the run?

Lisa: No way! Im going to work with Pike to blow this thing open.

Pike: Thats right.

Pike: I might have to ask you guys to take the stand as witnesses.

Pike: I know all this is a lot to ask, but make sure the O.C.U. gets a chance
      to take you out.

Ash: Yeah, well watch our backs.
