Atlus - Persona 2 Game Script - Part 4 lyrics

SUMARU TV STUDIO ONE (Miho, Mami, Lisa, Ginji, an Announcer, Chizuru, and Junko Kurosu are all sitting down.) ANNOUNCER: Now, we will ask Wang Long Chizuru to read what will happen to the streets being disturbed by the Joker... (Chizuru gets up and tries to predict, but then something affects her and she kneels down.) WANG LONG CHIZURU: Uh...!? JUNKO KUROSU: Are you alright...Ms. Chizuru? (An a**istant director comes up tells them to stop taping for a minute.) WANG LONG CHIZURU: So, Shiki has been defeated... JUNKO KUROSU: Eh...? WANG LONG CHIZURU: Yes...I, I am fine. I just got a little dizzy...Let's continue. (The a**istant director orders to resume taping again and leaves.) WANG LONG CHIZURU: The 12 Dragons used by heaven's lord..."Joka" representing the world's defilment, "Fukugi" representing life in the world...Tell me the future of this incident! WANG LONG CHIZURU: Ohh...This is!? All the guardian dragons are showing signs of "Joka"!!! At this rate, more people will be consumed by the Joker!!! It is vital to purify the kegare before it occurs! SUMARU TV 6F ASSISANT DIRECTOR: A, are you guys just looking around!? G, get out of here quick!!! Junko Kurosu is going berserk in Studio One!!! ELLEN: Please calm down. So, what happened? ASSISANT DIRECTOR: Wang Long Chizuru's telling came true! She said that people will become Joker...And all of a sudden, Mrs. Kurosu became a Joker!!! KATSUYA: What!? Ms. Amano, let's go!!! SUMARU TV 2F KATSUYA: Tatsuya!? I can feel Tatsuya's aura...It's coming from Studio One! He's...alive!!! (You can talk to a girl in a Seventh uniform here) YOUKO: I, I don't know anything...! I wasn't jealous of that girl Lisa...! I didn't perform any Joker curse!!! OUTSDIE STUDIO ONE ELLEN: (Ba Gua Symbol)...The talisman of "1". Wang Long Chizuru is inside as well. She's a considerably strong sorceress...Do not underestimate her!!! STUDIO 1 (Chizuru is standing behind Junko Kursou. Junko Kurosu is about to attack Lisa, Mami, and Miho when fire halts Junko in her path. Tatsuya walks in between and draws his sword towards Chizuru and Junko.) LISA: Uppercla**man Tatsuya...? Wh, why are you here...? WANG LONG CHIZURU: Hmph...So you are the paradox that Master Guido was talking about..You impudent child...I will finish you off myself! TATSUYA: Stand back, Lisa... LISA: Lisa...? (Katsuya walks in.) KATSUYA: Tatsuya...!? (Maya and co. enter and draw their weapons.) (Boss Battle Music Starts) WANG LONG CHIZURU: Ch...! Junko Kurosu! k** that boy! JOKER JUNKO: Under<3stood<3 Such a cute boy... (Chizuru walks to Maya and co.) (Enter Battle) ULALA: And I believed in your fortune telling! How dare you let me down!! WANG LONG CHIZURU: (snicker) Because of people like you, fortune telling is needed. Thanks to this, I've collected lots of Kegare... (Chizuru points to Katsuya.) WANG LONG CHIZURU: You over there! You said curses were outdated...I've been hated and driven out by humans like you. "The world needs no such powers!"...You cannot accept anyone who is different, you foolish, sinful creatures! Look at the way things are now!...Face the fact that humans cannot live without oracles to cling to! (After Battle) (A dummy is lying on the floor) ELLEN: Damn...I knew it was too easy...It was just a dummy. (Katsuya walks up to Lisa and her freinds. An unconscious Junko is on the floor.) KATSUYA: Where is Tatsuya...!? LISA: He just told me...to take this person to a place called the "Velvet Room"... LISA: Please! Save Tatsuya!! He was very depressed...PLEASE! KATSUYA: Calm down...That is my younger brother. I'll make sure he goes to school so... BAOFU: It's dangerous to stay here any longer...Let's get out of here. HOTEL PLEIADES PENTHOUSE (The two private investigators are lying dead in a pool of blood.) ELLEN: What happened to them!? Nate! Are you alright!? NATE: We were too late...By the time we got back... ELLEN: The New World Order will pay for they've done... ULALA: Hey...This all started when we talked to that "Sneak" guy? KATSUYA: Impossible...We were never followed...! BAOFU: Not this time...But there were plenty of chances before...We can't stay here...Let's go back to my place, we'll be safe there... BAOFU'S LAIR (Baofu is typing on the computer.) NEWS: Continuing news in the numerous homicides plaguing Sumaru City..It was though to be the work of one suspect, however...The investigation department has uncovered that these gruesome serial k**ings cannot be the work of a single suspect...The department has continued investigation believing that there is only one suspect, however it has been uncertain... NATE / KATSUYA / MAYA: ......... (Ulala and Ellen enter inside.) KATSUYA: Ms. Serizawa...How was it? ULALA: Just like Ellen said. Because of Wang Long Chizuru's fortunes, the city is in a panic. I actually believed that b**h! BAOFU: Let's begin our information exchange.. What happened over at the laboratory? NATE: The man named Shinjo at the lab was in fact Guido Kandori...They say they revived him with rumors. Guido has been using the Jokers he's been capturing for some human experiments...I saw a huge machine in the laboratory which appeared to be part of the experiment...Other than that, I got caught, so all I could do was steal the research data...This is the disk I downloaded. (Nate gives the disk to Baofu.) BAOFU: Wow...I'm impressed...Well done, "Sir Nate". NATE: ...I wish you would stop calling me that. The one person allowed to call me that no longer exists... BAOFU: Alright...My bad...This is a lot of information...That machine seems to be called "JSM". I don't know the logic behind it, but it's basically a machine that "separates" the people from the Joker in them... The "seperated Joker" goes in a tank. It's known as "Kegare" ("Kay-GA-ray"). Kegare consists of things like hatred and fears. ELLEN: "Kegare" again...? Wang Long Chizuru talked about how they gathered a lot of kegare...What are they going to use that for? BAOFU: There's not much here that says anything about what they're doing with it... KATSUYA: Wait...these are phone records! The sending-end and the receiving-end are the same...? It's a list of Joker calls! BAOFU: A "delivery list"...They knew who was going to be the next Joker. I can't even make a phone call in peace... KATSUYA: He's even got records of 911 reports and police radio dispatch...That damn Shimazu!!! BAOFU: There's more...Is it a robot? A two-legged tank with human nerve transplants... Co-developed by the Defense Agency... NATE: And the one who managed the initiative was Guido...Why Guido...You were... KATSUYA: Hmmm...It's all so clear now...The fortune teller increased the amount of Jokers and the Mafia hunts them down...The captured people get "Joker-seperated" by Kandori, and the police cover it up...We got to find out what Shimazu is up to... BAOFU: Hold on...That's not enough to prove the connection between Tatsuzou...Going public with this won't solve anything...We gotta get more evidence... NEWS: ...In other news...In Sumaru city, several seminars were sponsored by international celebrities, gathering huge crowds...The seminar is to purify those affected as a result of the Joker curse. It received a warm welcome by the people of the city. At Smile Mall in Hirasaka, Ginji Sasaki, the famous producer of the group Muses, met with Wang Long Chizuru... BAOFU: Looks like our next place to go is set...Let's go to this seminar thing to find out why they're collecting all this kegare. JOHNNY ROGERS ULALA: I wonder why...I've felt that that I've seen Tatsuya at GOLD before...That can't be... ULALA: The "Deja Vu Boy"...I don't believe that it's not just for you, but for me as well... TIME CASTLE KATSUYA: I wonder if we caught what you have...Lately, I've had deja vu as well. I feel that something happened at Smile Mall. ARAYA SHRINE LISA: Ms. Amano...I guess deja vu really does happen. I've been having it a lot lately. I think I know this place. That shrine and everything...It's not my first time seeing them...But why? LISA: It's been bugging me...that guy with blue hair seems familiar. I feel like picking on him. JUN: That over there's...Michel...He goes to the same school as I do. Why is he here?..And that blond girl, do I know her...? EIKICHI: You..Why are you here? Huh? Me? I just...wandered...sorta... EIKCIHI: Hmm...that blond girl has been staring at me pa**ionately...I think I have another fan now. ...Or do I know her? I think I might...But I can't remember her... TOA DEFENSE BAOFU: Suou had a dream where the police station was bombed. Maybe he wants to k** his boss? KATSUYA: I had a dream once where many incidents happened one after the other. Could it have been a premonition? SMILE MALL SMILE MALL 4F (Outside the Seminar Hall) ULALA: I bet the seminar started already. The door's locked. KATSUYA: This building's design is somewhat outdated. If we can find an air duct, it's possible for us to check what's happened inside, but... The question is where it's located... (Maya starts to have a flashback.) FLASHBACK: SMILE MALL (This shows Maya inside a restroom with Tatsuya, Eikichi, Lisa, and Yuki. Maya starts to smoke a cigarette and lifts it into the air. Then the air duct is shown up close.) REALITY KATSUYA: Huh? It's in the women's restroom on the 4th floor? How did you know that, Miss Amano...? I see, it's another of your deja vu...Hmm.. WOMENS ROOM (Maya, Ulala, and Ellen (if you're on her route) enter inside and they find the air duct.) ULALA: I'm going to call the guys in. Take care the vent cover off... (Maya does so and Ulala goes to the door.) ULALA: Hey guys, you can come in now...We found it... KATSUYA: Let's move...I don't want to get caught hanging around in a women's restroom... (Katsuya jumps into the air duct.) SEMINAR HALL (There are many people sitting down and it shows Ginji Sasaki standing in front of a golden statue.) ULALA: Hey, isn't that Ginji Sasaki...!? I don't see Chizuru around... BAOFU: Hey...Watch where you put your hand! GINJI: ...Can you people answer why you were born!? Why you are living the way you are!? GINJI: Lives wandering aimlessly...Though not satisfied, there are no efforts made for change. The one thing to do is to begrudge others! That is sin! That is Kegare! That's how the Joker consumes people!! ULALA: Whew...That guy's lost it... GINJI: But your worries are fully understandable...Not knowing what to do, not knowing how to live...That's right, not having a dream!! That is why we have Wang Long Chizuru! We have Wang Long fortune telling!! It is for the common man!!! MAYA: ......... GINJI: Here, I have Mistress Chizuru's statue of a sacred dragon...Fukugi. If you believe Mistress Chizuru's words and touch this statue, you'll be cleansed...Now, be reborn into innocence! (Ginji selects a man, and the man goes up to the statue.) NATE: Is it...the same kind of machine in the lab...!? ELLEN: Is that...the same machine Nate said he saw...? KATSUYA: It absorbs human's sins...That can't be... (The man puts his hand in the staue and his Kegare is s**ed.) REBORN MAN: Ahhh...I feel so bright and happy!! I have now become innocent right!? (Ginji nods his head.) STRANGELY POSITIVE PEOPLE: "LET'S BE POSITIVE!!" MAYA: .........!? ULALA: Ma-ya, they stole your motto!? WOMEN"S ROOM ULALA: So, what are we gonna do? Catch Sasaki, or destroy the machine...Either way, with all those people, they are going to get mixed up in it! *MAYA: Let's start a fire!* ULALA: Haven't you had enough fires? Besides, I don't think Suou would let you start one in front of him... KATSUYA: Actually...I think it's a good idea... ULALA: What the hell?...Unbelievable...! You were always yapping "justice, justice, justice", but when it's Ma-ya, anything is okay? KATSUYA: No...I meant... ULALA: Ohhhh...Ahhhh...Now this is a big surprise. With cops like this, this country really is finished...I seeeeeee... BAOFU: Hey stupid...Look up. NATE: A fire alarm, huh...As long as people BELIEVE there is a fire, we don't actually need to set one. How about burning some trash at the duct too? If we make a little smoke, it should be much more effective than just an alarm. ELLEN: A fire alarm...All we have to do is cause a panic, and we wouldn't even have to burn anything. Though I would kind of like to see it. BAOFU: We can also burn trash or something at the duct. It'll be better than just an alarm. KATSUYA: Let's split into 2 groups, one sends smoke and charges in, while the other sets off the alarm. (A moment later.) ULALA: Hey Ma-ya...Does everyone think I'm stupid? If you ask me, there's something wrong with you guys for being so calm at a time like this... NATE: Your reaction is relatively normal. Everybody is just used to these situations...What I don't understand is Ms. Amano...Where does your "deja vu" originate from? ELLEN: Don't worry. You seem so...natural. I'm envious...I hear women are more likable if they're a little air-headed. (Maya laughs) ULALA: Gee thanks... (The alarm goes off, talk to party members.) ULALA: Damn, that Baofu pisses me off...He call me an idiot all the time! (NATE'S ROUTE) NATE: Let's go now. The guys are waiting for us. (ELLEN'S ROUTE) ELLEN: Let's go...The guys are waiting. SEMINAR HALL (The party enters the empty Seminar Room and confront Ginji Sasaki.) GINJI: What are you people!?...Don't blame me if you are consumed through such actions! I am trying to rid everyone's Kegare.. KATSUYA: If it's that easy, no one would struggle. Stop confusing these people with your foolish superstitions... BAOFU: Exactly...There is much we want to ask you. You best worry about you, rather than the machine. GINJI: I'm not talking!! This is an outrage! Someone get a lawyer!!! BAOFU: Will someone please shut this guy up? Amano, you know what to do... (Maya draws out her guns.) GINJI: Wh, what are you doing? S,stop...something terrible will happen! DOOOOOOONT!! (Maya shoots the gla** tubes full of Kegare. The Kegare rises and goes into Ginji. He then falls to the floor.) GINJI: Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! NATE: It can't be...It has it's own will!? ELLEN: Uh...What just happened there? Is he alive...? ULALA: Oh, man! Did you see that!? It just went inside that guy's body! KATSUYA: Hey, are you alright!? (Ginji gets up and he's turned into a Joker.) (Enter Battle) JOKER GINJI: I warned you that something horrible would happen! Hahahahahahaha! (Ginji summons the Joker Persona.) NATE: I see...Extracted Kegare from the people are themselves, Joker... ELLEN: I got it...Kegare equals Joker... KATSUYA: A Persona born of sin...No wonder it keeps gaining power... BAOFU: So it's on a completely different level than before...Keep your guard up! (After Battle) JOKER GINJI: Ghu... (Ginji collapses.) BAOFU: Damn...This isn't good... KATSUYA: Ended up we couldn't find anything out...Seemed to be under a strong mind control...Probably a waste to question subordinates... ULALA: But they're doing the same thing all over the place right? What are we going to do... (NATE'S PATH) NATE: Going one at a time gets us nowhere. Before they do anymore damage, we should expose the New World Order publicly. (Nate dials his cell plone.) NATE: Ellen? Give our data regarding the New World Order to Matsuoka. We will leak it to a trustworthy pipeline. (ELLEN'S PATH) ELLEN: There are too many of them...Before they do anymore damaage, we should exposse the New World Order publicly. (Ellen dials her cell phone.) ELLEN: Nate? I want you to send information about the New World Order over the wire... (Katsuya's cell phone rings) SNEAK"S VOICE: It's me...Sneak KATSUYA: ...I want to ask you one thing. A penthouse was attacked...Was it you? SNEAK:...I guess it would be pretty hard to believe me...very well. Next time, I will show myself. Do as you wish...There is something I must say...Wait until after you've heard this. I'll be at the Concert Hall in Aoba Park... (Katsuya hangs up.) BAOFU: Is it him...? KATSUYA: Yeah...He wants us to meet him at the Concert Hall in Aoba Park... ULALA: Wait a minute! It has to be a trap!! KATSUYA: You may be right...But, I have to find out if he's really trustworthy. BAOFU: Heh...We'll see. You probably just want to find out about your father...I'm not getting involved... KATSUYA: Do whatever you want, Baofu...Nobody asked you to come along...Ms. Amano...I'll be going now... (Katsuya leaves.) ULALA: Hey, what did you say that for!? He's one of us...He's our friend... BAOFU: Heheh...I never thought of him as a friend...Besides, he only irritates me... ULALA: Hey! I'm getting tired of your sh**, Baofu! Get your a** after him, now! Otherwise, you'll be joining our friend on the ground over there! BAOFU: Well, if you put it that way...Ch..Fine...I don't care about him, but separating from Maya right now wouldn't be wise... ARAYA SHRINE LISA: New World Order...I think my producer knew the name... JUN: The New World Order...Is the man who attacked us at the Sky Museum part of that group too? EIKICHI: "Let's be positive!"...Everyone in twon's been saying that lately, so it's been on my mind. I feel there used to be someone who went around saying something like that...Who was it...? PEACE DINER ELLEN: (giggle) When we're like this, it seems we're back in time. I wonder how Mark is doing... SEEDY CD (At this point, you can meet a white-haired girl with a sword here. ) IXQUIC: I am Ixquic, the transmigrated warrior maiden! Demons that threaten humans' lives! I, Ixquic, shall whoop your a**es!! *IXQUIC* Very spirited girl who thinks she is a reincarnated warrior of some sort. IXQUIC: Hey, misses? Have you seen an old lady who runs at 100 kilometers per hour around here? The kids in the neighborhood said that they saw the (100 km/h Hag) at the (The Seedy CD). As a warrior, I can't let that slide, can I? That's why I came here, but I couldn't find any demons...Um, Misses, can you help me find it? IXQUIC:The 100 km/h Hag has something called, High Speed Title. If I show that to the kids, they'd be convinced... (Spread the rumor, fight the 100 km/h Hag and receive the High Speed Title. Show it to Ixquic.) IXQUIC: !? The thing that you're holding, isn't that the High Speed Title!? Wo---w!!! You actually beat the 100 km/h Hag!...Um...Misses...Um..Can you trade that High-Speed Title for my treasure? I really need that... *MAYA: (Trade)* IXQUIC: Really!? Yaaaaaay! Then I'll give you this Incense Set! Thank you!!! AOBA PARK NORTH SIDE BAOFU: Looks like Suou is just ahead of us...Man, that guy...You can't handle being a gumshoe, believing people that easily... OUTSIDE THE CONCERT HALL BAOFU: It's open... ULALA: He went inside here...? BAOFU: Dammit! One of these days Suou's going to get himself into real trouble... INSIDE THE CONCERT HALL (Katsuya checks all around the stage and he sees someone by the seats.) KATSUYA: Chief Togashi...!? But why...That can't be! CHIEF TOGASHI: I'm sorry Sergeant Suou...I can't ask for you to believe me, but...I wasn't informed about the attack. The organization does not trust me...If you want to shoot, go ahead. But can you at least listen to my story...I want to atone for the sin I've committed... (Katsuya puts his gun away. The screen fades out for a moment) CHIEF TOGASHI: Here, let me explain...The New World Order is an organization that worships a god-like figure called Gozen. You've at least heard of Kiyotada Sumaru...That's right...A Shogun Warrior who used to rule this land during the civil war. 20 years ago, when Honmaru Park was built, they unearthed Kiyotada's mummy. That's when everything began... CHIEF TOGASHI: The top leaders of the organization were responsible for the park's construction. Until then, they were just a small local company, but now they are big enough to move this country...All because of Kiyotada's strong curses. To me it just looks like a mummy...They claim to be able to hear voices...They worship the mummy and plan to destroy the entire world outside of Sumaru to create a utopia. KATSUYA: That's foolish...What are they trying to accomplish? CHIEF TOGASHI: To them, the entire world is a "sin". An innocent world is created by one tribe with one universial utopian ideal...The eradication of Sin by Punishment...The spreading of Jokers and fortunes are solely for that purpose. KATSUYA: That is such arrogance...! Sure, man commits sin...even grave sins! But shouldn't there be atonement!? One must atone for one's own sins. Being the police, shouldn't we understand that better than anyone!? CHIEF TOGASHI:...The problem is their will and power...You may know that fortune telling stems from an ancient curse called "Wang Long"... The dragons of Wang Long are underground energy flows called leylines...Since ancient times man has prospered by watching or sometimes, controlling it...They are going to use the dragon for the contrary purpose...The dragons hate Kegare. If ama**ed in large quantities and released, the dragons will band together to k** it...Natural disasters, causing the poles of the world to shift, will knock the earth off its axis...Destroying the world... KATSUYA: Pole shift...? That's impossible...!! That's the purpose of the Jokers!? That would destroy the New World Order itself...That is nonsense...! CHIEF TOGASHI: They plan to elevate the entire city with an ancient spaceship called "Torifune", while watching the process unfold...The Torifune is already made real by rumor. Now, no person can stop the rumors...! The only way is to defeat Sudou and Gozen... CAPTAIN SHIMAZU'S VOICE: Betrayal would be distressing , chief. (Captain Shimazu comes out on the stage.) CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: Plus this is the second time...First your best friend...and now us? KATSUYA: WHAT!? CPATAIN SHIMAZU: Your father was an excellent officer. 10 years ago, he was this close in closing in on Tatsuya Sudou. He never figured a friend would betray him. A best friend teaming up with the criminal's father to fabricate charges...(chuckle) CHIEF TOGASHI: He's right...I betrayed your father...I knew that this would happen ever since I heard his son was in the police academy...I knew all along...You became a cop to prove your father's innocence...And to gain back the family bond which I had destroyed...But at least believe this...Your father was a very proud man...He accepted the false accusations in order to protect both me and his family... CHIEF TOGASHI: Captain! I have already revealed the organization's information to a trusted source! A place not infected by Sudou! Eventually our existence will be revealed to the public...No more games! CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: Ha-Ha-Ha! You foolish old man...That's our intent. Kotodama's revelation takes precaution. A story won't become a rumor if it is too unrealistic. We need realism and publicity. For that, we must make the public aware of our existence, purpose, and power...You have advertised us very well. CHIEF TOGASHI: You ba*tard. You think you're an enforcer? (Togashi tries to shoot Shimazu, but Shimazu shoots Togashi first.) KATSUYA: Chief!!! CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: Checkmate...(chuckle) BAOFU: For you... KATSUYA: Ms. Amano...!? (The party surrounds Shimazu and Maya has a gun to his head. Shimazu drops his gun.) ULALA: Tell us where Tatsuzou is! Ma-ya's got a really itchy trigger- finger, so don't mess with her! (Suddenly SAT teams come out and have the Concert Hall surrounded) (Enter Battle) CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: (chuckles)...This is how a game should be...The odds are now even. What are you gonna do? MAYA: ......... KATSUYA: ......... (Katsuya gets on the ground and fires a shot.) (After Battle) (Shimazu is sitting down in a pool of blood.) KATSUYA: I won't...let you die as a public servant... (Katsuya handcuffs Shimazu.) CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: It was...to create an "innocent" world...I am...not wrong... (Captain Shimazu dies.) KATSUYA: Chief Togashi...! CHIEF TOGASHI: Katsuya...forgive me...I was foolish...Please...stop them... KATSUYA: Yes sir... CHIEF TOGASHI: Th, their hideout..is... (Chief Togashi dies.) KATSUYA: Come on, say it Baofu...You were right and I was wrong...I let myself fall into their trap... BAOFU: Now's not the time...The old man paid his dues...You show respect for a "man"... BAOFU: Let's get back to my place...We have to figure out Tatsuzou's next move... GATTEN SUSHI CHRIS: I'm pretty much done with my business...I'm gonna get going. Take care, you guys. By the way...if you ever need a good knife for your kitchen, just call me. I'll be right over. BAOFU'S LAIR (NATE'S ROUTE) ELLEN: It just started going off. What is happening? (ELLEN'S ROUTE) NATE: It just started going off. What's going on? It's pretty annoying. BAOFU: I tapped Tatsuzou's phone. Either his home or office...I've tapped most phones the ba*tard should be using. Of course, I can't do diddly squat about cell phones and public phones... YUNG PAO'S VOICE: ...Shimazu and Togashi are dead. They did it...That leaves less work for us. TATSUZOU'S VOICE: I see... BAOFU: Yung Pao...! KATSUYA: That guy must have been spying on us...! YUNG PAO'S VOICE: I want to get reward I was promised...You release brother yet? TATSUZOU'S VOICE: Don't worry. He's already in the country on a tourist visa. He's got money, too... YUNG PAO'S VOICE: ...I see. I decide location...Bring money to Konan District Abandoned Factory...You come alone...No tricks. TATSUZOU'S VOICE: You are very cautious...Very well...The promise was to accept all deals...See you then... MAYA: ......... BAOFU: .........This is our chance to nail Tatsuzou's a**...Ha! He'll never see us comin'! KATSUYA / NATE: ......... (Baofu starts to leave.) ULALA: H, Hey... BAOFU: ......... (Baofu exits.) (Talk to members.) KATSUYA: Mr. Nanjo...There's something I would like you to check...Check his...and... NATE: Baofu's...and...? I understand...I will try... ELLEN: Pole shift...That thing where the earth's axis will spin 90 degrees...? If that happens the whole world will rain for days...floods, tsunamis, volcanos, and earthquakes...Every kind of disaster...And unless they are airborne, most people won't survive...How could they use the Wang Long for such a thing... ULALA: Ma-ya, he just went alone...! It's too dangerous alone...We've got to go after him! The factory is behind our place! (When you leave a cut scene will ensue.) CONFERENCE ROOM (This shows the same conference room from way back from the beginning of the game. Chizuru, Guido, 4 NWO executives, a guy in a green uniform, and the mysterious old man, who is Tatsuzou are shown.) CONFERENCE ROOM OLD MAN WITH A CANE: ...See you then... *TATSUZOU SUDOU* The current Foreign Minister who is also the top executive of the New World Order. He is the one behind this plan. PALE-FACED MAN: Hard to believe these are the actions of a person raising an innocent world...I'm saying, it's quite a task. *GENERAL SUGAWARA* Hostile leader of the 15th Division of the Civil Defense Force and director of NWO. He seems to be ill, and looks very pale. TATSUZOU: No need for insults. Is it ready...? GENERAL SUGAWARA: It is complete. It should be a good test for X-1. Excuse me... GENERAL SUGWARA: A wolf in sheep's clothing.... (Sugawara walks off.) NEW WROLD ORDER EXECUTIVE (purple suit): The plan is going smoothly as of now...The uncertain aspect is the existence of the Paradox. NEW WORLD ORDER EXECUTIVE (grey suit): Why is that obstacle left alone...And what is the Paradox? Honestly, Gozen's ideas lately are... TATSUZOU: Watch your mouth...We are in front of Gozen. TATSUZOU: Gozen's ideas are far beyond our comprehension...We must all accomplish our duties. (They all walk off except for Guido. Chizuru takes a look at him before she walks off.) GUIDO: Hmph...? Who is the most sinful...? (If you're on Ellen's route, he'll be known as "Man with Sungla**es and you'll get this bio.) MAN WITH SUNGLASSES: Hmph...? Who is the most sinful...? *GUIDO KANDORI* A Persona user that once attempted to destroy the world. He was defeated by Nate and Ellen and allegedly died 4 years ago... GUIDO: Elders driven by ambition...A human that causes chaos to be chaos...Or is it... MUMMY CALLED GOZEN: ......... ARAYA SHRINE JUN: The end of the world...Why does...my heart ache...Have we lost...something important... LISA: A huge ship under the city...no way! Hasn't something like this happened before? It really feels like that! But I can't remember...Something keeps on flickering in my head. But why can't I remember? EIKICHI: Torifune...Torifu? Ne? Tofu? Naaaaaah... KISMET PUB. YUKI: I'm sorry, Maya. I couldn't hide it from Shunsuke... FUJII: I heard from Yukki. You're the ones fighting against the New World Order. It's still settling in...Should I say this?...Good luck, Mackey! FACTORY (Maya and co. are eavesdropping Yung Pao and his Mafia Henchmen.) BAOFU: ......... ULALA: Hey...Why do you hate them so much...? KATSUYA: ......... (Suddenly, a robot and Tenchu Soldiers come and wipe out all the Mafia Men. Yung Pao escapes into the factory. Baofu jumps down on the opposite side. Then the Tenchu soldiers fire upon the party.) ULALA: Huh...!? (Maya and co. escape and a gun blast nearly hits Ulala, and she starts to shake.) ULALA: What the...!? Hey! (Ulala jumps down) KATSUYA: Let's go after him. ULALA: What's going on!? What the hell is going on here!? KATSUYA: They knew they were being bugged. That phone call was a trap to k** us along with the Mafia. ULALA: What!? So then Baofu...Oh crap, we have to tell him! KATSUYA: Worry about yourself. I'm sure he knows... ULALA: What...? What did you just say? (Ulala catches up.) FACTORY FACTORY 1F ULALA: Ma-ya...It's him! He's right over there. We have to hurry!!! PLANT #2 BAOFU: There's nowhere left to run...Give it up... YUNG PAO: Tatsuzou betray me. I be one to k** him...Can't you let me go...? BAOFU: Can't do that, buddy... YUNG PAO: I see... (Baofu and Yung Pao fire their weapons at each other and then are exhausted. Baofu walks up slowly and picks up one of Yung Pao's guns and aims it at him.) YUNG PAO: How many years it been...? BAOFU: Five years...It still wasn't enough time to make me forget. See ya in hell... KATSUYA'S VOICE: Hold it right there, Saga! KATSUYA: Former prosecutor of the Sumaru Special Investigation Unit, Kaoru Saga...I had Mr. Nanjo check it out for me... ULALA: No way...a prosecutor... KATSUYA: Five years ago, there was an accident where a couple, a prosecutor, and a secretary died while traveling in Taiwan... It wasn't a trip, nor was it an accident...The Minister of Justice covered it up...I didn't know...So what was it, Baofu? Was this to avenge Miki Asai...? Or... BAOFU: Shut up, Suou...You don't know anything... KATSUYA: You knew your tap was found...You knew this was a trap. You made us stall them so you could k** him. ULALA: I-is that true...? KATSUYA: Is that what you had in mind all along...? To use us... (Baofu aims towards the party.) BAOFU: So, what are you gonna do about it, Suou!? Just stay outta my way! KATSUYA: We have to arrest him...I know how you feel, but don't k** him. We need him to testify against Tatsuzou... ULALA: Stop!!! (Baofu fires some shots.) TENCHU SOLDIER: Guh... (An X-1 appears and the party draws thier weapons.) (Enter Battle) BAOFU: Everyone just seems to get in my way...Fine...Come on! (After Battle) (The X-1 dies and when the party turns around. Yung Pao is kneeling down in a pool of blood.) YUNG PAO: X-1, General Sugawara's pride and joy...Such accuracy... YUNG PAO: Tatsuzou must be at sea now...He be releasing Blue Dragon in Undersea Ruins...His ship the Nichirinmaru...You see Tatsuzou...Tell him...I be waiting for him in Hell... (Yung Pao dies) BAOFU: Don't worry, he'll be joining you shortly...I'll make sure of that... BAOFU: What were you going to do if I shot...? KATSUYA: I know you wouldn't...It's not your style... BAOFU: Ha...Maybe...Maybe not... ULALA: ......... (NATE'S ROUTE) NATE: Well, we have no time to lose. Let us pursue Tatsuzou at once. My cruiser is docked at the harbor. (ELLEN'S ROUTE) ELLEN: Come on! You heard what the dead guy said...We have to go after Tatsuzou...Nate's cruiser is at the harbor...Let's try to get a hold of him. VELVET ROOM ULALA: Kaoru Saga...public prosecutor...What in the world could've happened to him? KATSUYA: The Tien Tao Lien Affair...It was suspected there was lots of cash going from the Mafia to the Minister of Justice then, Tatsuzou...Saga was investigating that, and they tried to k** him in n "accident" that ended up k**ing his partner, Ms. Asai...I would imagine that Saga's Persona awakened then and only he was saved...And that might be why he hates Personas... BAOFU: Miki...the one who k**ed you is dead...Just wait...there's only one more left... LUNAR PALACE BAOFU: I wonder what she would say if she saw me now...Hmph...she'd bellow at me at how conceited I am. I know she would... BIKINI LINE BAOFU: Something's not right...The tin-plated doll we saw at the factory. I feel I've seen a thing like it before...I must be imagining. YATCH HARBOR (NATE'S ROUTE) MATSUOKA: According to our sources, the Nichirinmaru is 10km off the coast of Sumaru Bay...It's cover is a cruise ship, but the inside has been modified greatly. MATSUOKA: The Civil Defense Force's troop IS and part of the Sea Division are in his pocket...The government has finally realized it, and the Public Safety board and the Defense Aency are trying to grasp the situation... NATE: This is taking too long... MATSUOKA: But what you are trying to do ia not fit for the future heir to the Nanjo Conglomerate... "Nanjo" has power. There are may ways to sink it. So, please... NATE: That's why I must go. It is important for me right now to actually witness that power... It's not something I can just inherit. MATSUOKA: ...I understand...Do as you wish. Ms. Amano...Please look after theyoung master. (The party gets on the cruiser and head towards the Nichirinmaru while Matsuoka watches.) MATSUOKA: Alfred...The young master has grown up well. It's all thanks to you andhis friends... (He makes a phone call) MATSUOKA: It's me. We are anticipating a confrontation. Collect data however you can. Erase any traces of the Nanjo name from this incident. Nanjo is clean.... (ELLEN'S ROUTE) NATE: According to our sources, the Nichirinmaru is 10 km off the coast of Sumaru Bay...It looks like a cruise ship, but it seems the inside has been modified greatly... ELLEN: The informants working for the Nanjo Conglomerate are truly thorough...Don't worry about us. (Maya starts to say something.) ULALA: What!? You're driving!? ULALA: I've had enough of you and your driving! There is no way in hell!! BAOFU: Quit messin' around and stand back... BAOFU: I'm driving and that's that... (The party gets on the cruiser and head towards the Nichirinmaru while Nate watches.) NICHIRINMARU SUBMARINE DOCK (Chizuru heads up the stairs and speaks to a Tenchu Soldier than approaches Guido.) GUIDO: How are the "old folks" doing...? CHIZURU: They want the seal removed right away. They're getting a little impatient. CHIZURU: Master Guy, no Guido. There has been something I wanted to ask you...why would someone as great as you be controlled by one such as Tatsuzou...? GUIDO: Do you despise him...? Because you are...a woman. CHIZURU: ...You should exterminate the old order and become leader! You must lead us... GUIDO: It doesn't matter to me... CHIZURU: Your only concern is with them and...that boy of the Paradox... CHIZURU: Why are you so obsessed with them!? GUIDO: Ha...You underestimate me... (An explosion is heard in the backround) GUIDO: The paradox.. All the players are in place.....Let's go. (An FMV plays of Guido heading toward the Undersea Ruins in the submarine while the party's cruiser heads toward the Nichirinmaru.) NICHIRINAMRU DECK: (Shots are fired near Katsuya and Katsuya takes a shot at the Tenchu Soldier) SOLDIER'S VOICE: Guh...! (Shots are fired near Maya and Maya takes a shot at another Tenchu Soldier) SOLDIER'S VOICE: Gya...! BAOFU: Looks like your brother is raising some hell... KATSUYA: He doesn't look it, but once he's enraged, there's no stopping him. ULALA: What the hell is going on around here!? BAOFU: Either way, he's gonna be ahead of us at this rate...Let's get going. (Talking to party members) ULALA: That Tatsuya is unbelievable. He came all the way here by himself... NATE: An Aegis vessel made to look like a cruise ship...how stupid...No sense of money... ELLEN: Hmm...It looked like a lovely cruise ship when I saw it from the port...But the inside is quite disappointing. BAOFU: You saw a submarine go down before, right? There was another one just like it.. I don't know if Tatsuzou's on it, but that's the only way to go after him... KATSUYA: Tatsuya...What makes you this way? Why won't you tell us what's going on...? Am I that lousy of a brother...? SOLDIER'S CORSPE: (Former member of the Defense Force. He has already expired...) NICHIRINMARU: CONFERENCE ROOM KATSUYA: This looks like a map of the ocean floor... BAOFU: Hmmm...Where are the Undersea Ruins? KATSUYA: Right around where Ms. Amano is standing. BAOFU: No time to waste...Let's move. (Talking to members) ULALA: Ma-ya, remember that party? It was on a cruise ship just like this...A ship is a ship, but I never thought I would have to go on a ship like this... NATE: The combination of modern technology and sorcery is where New World Order excels. How fanciful for them... ELLEN: That mark on the floor...It looks like some sort of symbol used in sorcery...It could be an ancient seal... KATSUYA: That shrine-like thing...Don't you think there's something about it? Who was inside it...? BAOFU: Looks like they were plotting something evil here...You just wait...Tatsuzou... NICHIRINMARU 2F: KATSUYA: Tatsuya...What does he think he's doing? AT THE HELIPORT: (A helicopter arrives to pick up Tatsuzou) TENCHU SOLDIER: Hurry...! TATSUZOU: Right... (As the soldiers fire, Tatsuya jumps out and k**s the soldiers instantly) TATSUYA: Tatsuzou! What you believe is wrong! Don't be manipulated by him! TATSUZOU: You fool...This world of sin and no ideals is false. Therefore, it must be punished. TATSUYA: You're wrong. I'm the only one who must be punished... (Maya and the others arrive, getting their weapons out.) KATSUYA / BAOFU: Tatsuzou!! TATSUZOU: Such a pity...A great pity. In today's world, how many people are there with your sense of purpose.. Come join me. Together, we can create a world without man's original sin. BAOFU: Fool! You don't know what you're talking about, old man! NATE: How dare you... ELLEN: Is he serious...? ULALA: Don't be ridiculous! Who's gonna humor an old man's delusions! KATSUYA: You're crime is a serious one. Are you aware of the penalty? Punishment by d**h or life imprisonment! TATSUZOU: Is that so...? How unfortunate. (Tatsuzou leaves and the X-1s step up to challenge the party) (enter battle) KATSUYA: Wait! Tatsuzou!! TATSUYA: I'll take one of them...! BAOFU: Outta my way-----------! (After Battle) KATSUYA: Tatsuya...!! Are you hurt!? TATSUYA (to Maya): Why did you come...!? *MAYA: What do you mean, why...?* TATSUYA: Leave me alone! I can do this myself! TATSUYA:... ... ... (walks away) KATSUYA: Tatsuya...!! (Talking to members) KATSUYA: I'm sorry, Ms. Amano... He's not really like that... Please forgive him... ULALA: I've never seen Tatsuya so angry... NATE: Seems painful...hard to watch... ELLEN: It must be hard for him...I think the only one who can save his heart is you, Ms. Amano. BAOFU: The kid pushed himself too hard...Tatsuzou escaped, but we can't just let those guys heading towards the ruins go...Amano, let's look for a way to go after them. NICHIRINMARU SUBMARINE DOCK ULALA: Hey, look over there!! There's still one left! (An explosion hits the Nichrinmaru) BAOFU: sh**! Tatsuzou's trying to sink the ship! TATSUYA'S VOICE: Get on that sub and get out of here! KATSUYA: Is that you Tatsuya!? You only have a learner's permit! You can't drive that thing, it's dangerous! BAOFU: Idiot! What are you babbling about!... Get your a** over here!! KATSUYA: Who are you calling an idiot!? (The party gets on the submarine and escape) UNDERWATER: KATSUYA: Looks like we're almost there... MAYA: ......! BAOFU: So, this must be the Undersea Ruins... UNDERSEA RUINS ENTRANCE: (Talking to Party Members) KATSUYA: No one's here now... Tatsuya must have gone inside... X-2: (It seems that Tatsuya isn't in it anymore.) BAOFU: He must have done this. What a punk... And to top it off, he's smart as well...He's destroyed their only way out. He's got some mad sk**s. ULALA: Say, did these ruins appear because of rumors too...or has it been here?. I don't know what's real or not anymore. NATE: I can feel it...Guido is here...Young boy...He's a dangerous man...Don't get ahead of yourself.... ELLEN: I remember...this feeling...Mr. Kandori...he's here... UNDERSEA RUINS B2: NATE: I know you're calling me, Guido...Wait for me. I shall put an end to your ambition, once and for all... ELLEN: This is...Mr. Kandori...? He is over there... ROOM OF SEALS: (NATE'S ROUTE) (The Tenchu Soldiers fighting and Tatsuya arrives and k**s the Tenchu Soldiers with his sword, X2s appear and Maya and co. arrive just in time.) NATE: Guido...!! GUIDO: You're a little late...We just finished breaking the Seal. This is a seal that controls a dragon. There all 11 more of these throughout the world.. And they've all been released... CHIZURU: Right now, Gozen and Master Tatsuzou are headed towards Torifune...You've lost. GUIDO: I'd like to tell you to chase them, but I'm just a peon. (boss battle music starts) I can't just let you return. Please honor me by being my opponents. (Enter Battle) NATE: Guido...You acknowledged your weakness before. Your act makes me sick. I do not want to see you lower yourself... GUIDO: To be pitied by you again...Light has its role...Shadows have their role...That's just how it is... NATE: I see...Well then. I will bring you to your knees again! Young lad...I leave the woman to you!
