Stanley: Roughly eight hours ago a Scub Burst occurred in the suburb of Phoenix, Arizona. United States military made a concerted effort to intercept the Secret. Unfortunately, the operation failed.

Elena: That's the first, right?

Elena: Who don't have a Scub burst any.

Fleur: It is? Really?

Georg: Incorrect. The US has, in fact, has several Scub Bursts. They're infrequently...

Ao: They couldn't neutralize the Secret on their own. And surely don't be sending us a request to mobilize soon.

Ivica: I doubt this particular country will be seeking Generation Bleu’s assistance.

Blanc: Yes, that may be the cakes. Thank goodness for loop ropes, right?


Gazelle: Pied Piper is currently on standby in Mexico across the border from your great state of Arizona. All you have to do is invoke your power as the governor and issue a request for us to mobilize. That seems simple enough, huh?

Barry: I often find that the simple is a matter. The more people are inclined to argue about it. You understand, right? I owe it to my people to consider all the options available.

Gazelle: You kept this waiting just to deliver that line of a crap?!

Barry: I'm curious, Rebecka. What do you think? You look well, by the way.

Rebecka: Thank you.

Gazelle: Hey, what's all this about?

Barry: You're directly under the company president so I'm sure you know. Rebecka's appointment comes from higher up of the food chain.

Gazelle: Yeah, and what out of it?

Barry: You know as well, the Generation Bleu is owned by the PR company, the largest corporation in United States. What you may not know was that I also work with them before I got into politics. You see, Rebecka and I were colleagues there once upon a time. Ours was a very fruitful partnership. You know, what our greatest accomplishment was together she and I wiped entire country off the map. Smoldering antagonism between two ethnic groups in Balkan Peninsula became a full blown conflict when a Scub Burst occurred. The losing side can't watch as their country was dismantled brick by brick. And nobody in the global community came to their defense.

Gazelle: I remember history class, thanks. The country that lost that conflict is trying to commit genocide. Who would defend them?

Barry: And so called genocide was nothing more than an illusion manufactured by the PR company.

Gazelle: Do you mean?

Rebecka: There was no good or evil side in that conflict.

Gazelle: What?

Rebecka: However people hesitate to act unless that distinction has made. Made by you and the PR company. You haven't changed a bit, Barry?

Barry: Oh. And I suppose you have.

Rebecka: I would like to think I have actually.

Barry: You're kidding yourself. Very little separates what you do now from what you did back then. Think about it. Even now you're working behind the scenes to get me do what you want.


Ao: Noah? You're not supposed to be here. The Pied Piper of Hamelin?

Elena: Oh, that story about the violinist?

Fleur: Not everything is a manga.

Georg: The Pied Piper of Harmelin that supposed to be based on actual events that occurred Lower Saxony in Germany during ???

Ao: So this is what the team's named after?

Georg: In the story, ??? the plague would last. ??? saved ??? they're refused ??? stop ??? way.

Ao: That seems a kind of strange, doesn't it?

Fleur: A crabby show with the Chief?

Ao: Do you know why?

Fleur: No.

Georg: Continuing on! Several different interpretation that the story have been put forward. One possesses that the piper represents the Grim Reaper. And the story itself is a metaphor for the high more ??? of children during a plague or other catastrophe. Another potential explanation is that the story alludes the participation of children in a pilgrimage or a military action. Perhaps even the infamous children's Crusade finally a third series before the latter half of the 20th century suggests that the story maybe a reference to the colonization. Several villages ??? in East Europe during this period might possibly invent this out which by people who originally from Hamelin. These ??? seen as heaven's children. The theory ??? the Pied Piper represents their leader and that...

Ao: Wow, he's still talking.


Stanley: US military is on the move. They make on the second wave of their attack.

Ivica: A direct assault by infantry?

Stanley: The ZOA created by the Secret is believed to me quite a bit large than what you're used to see from. US Primary Force approached carelessly and was wiped out. They're relatively inexperienced to anti Secret combat. Likely they want to avoid additional loss of IFOs.

Blanc: So this was their brilliant solution. If the Secret reacts the IFO as another aircraft, why not see what happens if sending flesh and blood soldiers to deal with it.

Ivica: I'm leaving my post.

Stanley: And where do you think you're going?

Ivica: I'll rendezvous with the US Forces deployed at the sight to offer my advice to them directly.

Blanc: This is where you lough and say just kidding. You are an employee of this company.
Ivica: I'm taking independent action. Sorry.

Blanc: Hey, come back, Ivica!


Ivica: Once across the border, fabricate identification code and doubt immigration.

Georg: It can't be done, of course, what it will be illegal. As stipulated under United States Immigration control...

Ivica: Skip the lecture and just do it.

Georg: Roger that, Sir.

Ivica: Sorry for this.

Ao: It isn't like you forced me to come along. You needed someone to drive and I volunteered. And besides...

Ivica: What is it?

Ao : I wanted to see what you were up to. It's unusual for you to defy the president.

Ivica: US military might be reckless not to this great degree. They wouldn't send infantry against the Secret unless such an operation have been considered in advance.

Ao: So does that mean they're basing it on an experiment?

Ivica: My gut tells me something is wrong. Yours too, right, Ao?

Ao: Chief, there!

Ivica: We are Generation Bleu. You should have order to start to evacuate. What are you just standing there for?

Ao: Chief, something isn't right.

Ivica: Yeah.

Woman: It's him. He's crazy.

Soldier: That bastard threatend us then forced us to gather here. Why won't you let us go?!

Truth: I assure your sacrifice is vital. It will reveal the truth about the Secret.

Ao: He's behind this. Give Naru back, you bastard!

Ivica: Ao, No!


Barry: It seems the second wave of attack has failed miserably as well. They met with unexpected opposition. The whole unit was annihilated.

Gazelle: So, in light of this new development, are you prepared to have a serious discussion with us?

Rebecka: Unexpected opposition?

Barry: Sorry I have been vague. I don't have the details yet, either. Now then... Regardless what's happened, the authority to call in Generation Bleu still lies with me. As you say, it's my prerogative as governor.

Gazelle: Seriously. With all this going on, you're still playing games?


Ao: Huh, Truth!

Woman: I don't believe it. How could this happen?

Ao: What's going on? Hey, Chief, where that bastard... What the hell? Impossible. Did that the monster do this?

Soldier: Hey come inside that building!

Ao: Everyone, hurry, Get inside!

Soldier: Stay calm! The Secret will not come after us. They always react to the aircraft. Not to flesh and blood. See? We can do it!

Ivica: What are you think you're doing, Ao?! Pull out together.

Truth: You're blind to ignorant little people. You have no idea what the Secret truly are.

Man: They're out there. Those things are still looking for us.

Woman: Why does someone call for help!

Soldier: We can't reach our main unit unless we get back to our choppers.

Mommy: Hash little one. It's okay. No matter what happens, Mommy will be here. I'll protect you, sweetie.


Rebecka: The Secret attacked humans?!

Blanc: Yes that's right. After the infantry assault that seems the Secret learn to identify humans themselves as hostiles.

Stanley: It doesn't matter what kind of weapons they carry. The Secret won't discriminate.


Gazelle: So this the unexpected opposition he was talking about?

Rebecka: Our guys? You mean Ao and the Chief?

Gazelle: Oh, crap.

Stanley: We haven't heard from them. Just beat up your negotiations with the governor.

Blanc: I let you decide what compromises need to be made.

Rebecka: Compromises, huh.

Gazelle: This is out of character for you.

Gazelle: What is it about this that you got spooked?

Rebecka: I'm not spooked. Thank you.

Gazelle: It's Ivica, isn't it? Yeah, I know the back story that what happened with the old man's home land.


Ivica: It's my fault you're caught up all this. I'm sorry. Maybe you already know this but I'm the one who named the team "Pied Piper." Country I'm from no longer exists. Their way was a long fault. We're so focused on our problem. We didn't notice the world turning against us. My wife and child were both killed, caught in the fighting. Nonetheless, other lives lost in the conflict. Even so, I have no right to blame the enemy. We would've done the same to them. I took the Generation Bleu's offer in order to atone for my part of all of it. But only children could pilot the IFOs. And just like that, I became the Pied Piper. I play my pipe and send you kids off into the battle. I don't know what became of the children of Hamelin. I won't let the kids in my charge die.


Ivica: I'm going out there as a bait. Use that chance to get everybody out of fear.

Soldier: But if you go out there you'll die.

Ao: Yeahhhh!

Ivica: Ao!

Ao: I, I did it.

Ivica: What the hell with that?

Ao: An experiment.

Ivica: An experiment?

Ao: Upstairs. I saw these mannequins have been destroyed.

Ivica: Mannequins? Are those bastards identifying humans by shape alone?

Ao: That's what I was testing by running out there with the tent.

Ivica: That was beyond reckless!

Ao: Yeah, well... So what? It did work, didn't it? We can save these people. Listen up. Just trust us and follow our lead. We're getting out alive. The Chief and I are gonna make sure of it. I promise we will. Because we're Pied Piper.


Ao: This is it. Follow me, everyone.


Rebecka: Let me talk to him alone.

Gazelle: Huh?

Rebecka: Give us a minute.

Barry: Working together you and I once had the ability to erase an entire country. Don't try to tell me that things have changed. This time, it will be the whole world we'll be manipulating. I will happily issue a request for Generation Bleu to mobilize. However, I have some conditions. From now on Generation Bleu will support my...

Rebecka: You were saying about conditions?


Stanley: Arizona Governor has requested mobilization. Launch the Triton immediately. After picking up Ivica, Rebecka, and Ao neutralize the Secret.

Ao: Get out as fast as you can. Take everyone to safety!

Soldier: Roger. And again, Generation Bleu has a sincere gratitude.

Georg: The Triton is approaching your location.

Ivica: They managed to get the request.

Ao: We have to hurry up and destroy that Secret. It will be a massacre if it reaches the urban area.

Ivica: I think I have an idea.

Fleur: We're in the ZOA at this distance?

Elena: Have you made it to the rendezvous point yet?

Fleur: A little further.

Ao: Here it comes.

Ivica: We knew right. The Nirvash is a human shape. So the Secret recognizes it is a hostile.

Ao: Damn! I can't get through to it.

Ivica: He can't get in close enough. But there's another way to do this.

Fleur: Mm.

Ivica: Can you both hear me? When the Secret release its options it opens its mouth. That's a chance. Hitting with all the fire power you've got!

Elena: What happens after that?

Ivica: Leave it to me!

Elena: Uh. Chief, you're going to...

Fleur: Chief!

Ivica: Do it. Do it now!

Ao: Chief...


Ivica: Whatever you may have learned about her past, don't speak about it again. Not even to Rebecka herself.

Gazelle: Really you just want me to leave it at that.

Ivica: People are able to change. That's all there is to it.

Gazelle: Sure. Whatever you say. Her guilty is what's driving her. You know that, right?

Ivica: Hey. What are you talking about?


Ivica: What's wrong?

Rebecka: These children need their pied piper, you know. For their sake, be careful.

Ivica: Pied Piper, huh? You know I think this time around. The pipe players were actually the children.


Ao: To be continued!


Rebecka: Next time on Eureka Seven AO.
