Lunar Legend Tsukihime > 12. Lunar World

Shiki:
Ar...? Huh? Arcueid.
That means I have a decision to make as well.


Arcueid:
A decision?

Shiki:
I have to do this because I took his place.

Arcueid:
I See.

Shiki:
Ah?

Ciel:
Do you have a death wish or something?

Shiki:
Ciel.

Ciel:
I cannot, in good conscience, let you go, knowing that you're going to get killed out there.
You know that Roa's after you now. You're his target.
Roa is Shiki, am I right?
It'll be over soon. In a few days, the Church will send others to help with his execution.
There is no need for you to be involved in this anymore, Tohno.


Shiki:
I can't just wait around for them to show up. If I waited that long, then Arcueid would.
Ciel sempai, tell me where Arcueid is, right now. You know, don't you?


Ciel:
I don't understand why you're so obsessed with her.
If by some chance, Arcueid isn't killed by Roa, she still wouldn't have a future because she's forsaken her true nature.
In your heart, you know I'm telling you the truth.


Shiki:
Yeah.

Ciel:
Then why?

Shiki:
Because, it's just too sad to bear. She's never known any fun.
No one ever remembers her. And she's destined to die alone.
Now please tell me. I want to know where Arcueid is.


Ciel:
I guess nothing will stop you. Just remember, don't underestimate Roa.
He possesses the same power as Arcueid which he acquired during his pursuit for eternal life.


Shiki:
What does that mean?

Ciel:
It means she doesn't stand a chance against him now.

Arcueid:
Ah!

Ciel:
No matter how hard they try any person who Roa possesses is unable to suppress the growing hatred within them.

Roa:
Hun.

Ciel:
I know because I tried.

Shiki:
Ah, sempai.

Ciel:
It's best if we spread up from here on. It's not a good idea to fight Roa head on. He is very cunning.

Shiki:
I understand.

Ciel:
I wish you the best of luck.

Shiki:
You too.

Shiki:
Arcueid.
Why are you doing this?
Why, Arcueid?


Roa:
Have you gone completely mad, princess of true ancestors?
How dare you show pity for a mere human?

Shiki:
Don't do anything foolish, Arcueid.

Roa:
What in ugly sight. What happened to my beautiful proud princess?
Where did she go?

Arcueid:
No matter what, I won't let you kill Shiki.

Roa:
Uh...

Shiki:
Stop right there. You don't want her. Your target is really me, isn't it?

Roa:
Hmm... No need to rush. Besides, I'm not your enemy.

Shiki:
Arcueid, what's wrong?

Roa:
Why are you so surprised? Come on, Arcueid. You should know better than anyone that the body doesn't mean anything to me.
Hun.

Arcueid:
Uh!

Shiki:
Please! No! Arcueid!

Roa:
Enjoy your final farewell together. Go on!
I will allow you just enough time to take care of that.

Shiki:
Arcueid, no!
Come on, Arcueid. You're gonna be all right.


Arcueid:
Shiki, you finally saw the ugly side of me. Are you all right?

Shiki:
You shouldn't worry about me at the time like this.
Come on already!


Roa:
Hahahahahaha.

Shiki:
Why are you waiting? Why don't you just get it over with?

Arcueid:
I guess I don't like imaginary things after all.

Shiki:
I want you to live, damn it. I want you to live.
I already told you. We need to go out on another date.
We have useless things to do. We promised, didn't we?


Roa:
Huhuhuhuhuhuhu.
What a disappointing ending.

Shiki:
You'll pay for this.

Roa:
I'm afraid it's your turn now.



Roa:
Hun!

Shiki:
So you can see them after all.

Roa:
Yes, ever since that day.

Akiha:
My brother.

Roa:
Everything I ever had, you took away from me.
Now it's my turn to take back what's rightfully mine.
That day you had failed to die.
When I look at you, I see someone who should have died eight years ago.
That's what your vision tells you? Is that all?

Shiki:
I've known now. There is a difference in what you and I can see.

Roa:
Where are you hiding?
Shiki.

Shiki:
You must be in pain, Shiki. Don't worry. I will release you now.
Ciel sempai.


Ciel:
The person who killed Roa was me.
No matter what the reason is, the taking of another person's life is always considered as sin.


Shiki:
That doesn't really make sense.

Ciel:
Things don't always have to make sense.

Shiki:
Ah...

Ciel:
For example, it's much better than having you get hurt.
And besides, remember what I said?
I could never allow you to get yourself hurt. It's not in my nature.


Shiki:
Akiha? Are you all right?

Akiha:
I'm fine.

Shiki:
I see.

Akiha:
What about yourself?

Shiki:
It's OK. Everything is over now.

Akiha:
I know what you're saying.
Uhh... My brother. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.


Aoko:
Shiki? Were you able to protect what was important to you?

Shiki:
I don't know.

Aoko:
I see.

Shiki:
Hey.

Aoko:
Yes?

Shiki:
I haven't asked you your name, have I?

Aoko:
My name?

Shiki:
Don't you think it's kind of strange for me to call you Miss Wizard?

Aoko:
Aoko. It's Aoko Aozaki.

Shiki:
You're like a teacher to me.

Aoko:
You think so?

Shiki:
I do. You've taught me a lot of things.
And now I understand how important they are.
So you see? You have been my teacher.


Aoko:
You can't come here anymore.

Shiki:
What?
Miss Aozaki. Thank you so much.


Hisui:
Welcome back home.

Shiki:
Thanks.

Kohaku:
I'm glad you return Mr. Shiki.

Shiki:
Me too.

Kohaku:
What kind of breakfast would you like this morning?

Shiki:
I'll have Japanese.

Kohaku:
Right away, sir.

Akiha:
I didn't think.

Shiki:
Hm?

Akiha:
I never expected that you come back to the house ever again.

Shiki:
What are you tryna do, kick out your older brother?

Akiha:
Look. Fall's almost over.

Shiki:
Well, what do you know?

Hisui:
Have a good day at school, Master Shiki.

Kiyono:
Good afternoon welcome to TVS news xxx...

Shiki:
Hey.

Arihiko & Satsuki:
Huh?

Shiki:
What happened to Ciel sempai?

Satsuki:
Who's Ciel sempai?

Arihiko:
Yeah, who the heck is that?

Satsuki:
Does she go to school here with us?

Arihiko:
I don't think I'd forget someone with a name like that.

Satsuki:
Tohno?

Shiki:
Hmm?

Arihiko:
That sure is weird. I wonder where the two of them ran off to... Hmm...
Ah...


Satsuki:
Arihiko.

Arihiko:
Finally told him, didn't you?

Satsuki:
Uh!

Arihiko:
It's a nice day, huh?

Shiki:
Arihiko.

Arcueid:
Aren't you going to go home? Or is there someone that you're waiting for?

Shiki:
I'm here because I made a promise.

Arcueid:
I'm sorry. I couldn't keep the promise I made you.

Shiki:
I couldn't either. I wasn't able to protect you.

Arcueid:
So it's about time you forget about me.

Shiki:
What are you saying?

Arcueid:
You see? The fact is you really did keep your promise to me.

Shiki:
No. It's not fair. All I wanted was for you to...

Arcueid:
I'm sorry, Shiki. Bye-bye, Shiki.

Shiki:
No! Please wait! Arcueid!

Shiki:
Hey listen. I've got an idea. Maybe after all this is over, why don't you and I go out on another date?
And then we can share one more useless thing. We'll give it our best shot. And there'll be no obligations at all.
It'll just be a meaningless date.


Arcueid:
It's a promise.
