From Every F\\\\\\\'n FF Scripts
Vincent proceeds forward a bit; in the distance he notices a bunch of Gargoyles fly up to him. For a long time, Vincent makes his way throughout the Deepground complex/city, with no story developments; just a lot of dungeon crawling.
|
Eventually, something of note happens; a whirlpool of black energy suddenly appears behind Vincent! He tries to run away, but it engulfs him; he's surrounded by darkness, and it completely swallows him. Somewhere in the darkness, a small blip of light appears and gets larger. A girl's voice is heard.
|
Girl |
????
|
- No. Don't let Chaos control you.
|
- だめ、それ以上カオスになっては……
|
Girl |
????
|
- You cannot be contained by this darkness
because a part of you was born from it.
|
- あなたは、この闇に捕らわれないはず。
同じ闇より、生まれし命を持つから……
|
Girl |
????
|
- Find yourself. Regain control.
|
- 心を……細く……落ち着……けて……
|
The darkness disappears from around Vincent; we see him jump out of the darkness cocoon that had enveloped him.
|
Scene change; somewhere else in the darkness that Vincent had just escaped from, we see Shelke, encased in a blue ball of energy (most likely generated by her Shield materia.
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- As old as he is,
|
- あんなに大人なのに……
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- and still acting like a helpless child.
|
- 手がかかる人……
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- I can see why Lucrecia
had such a difficult time.
|
- 彼女の気持ちも少し分かる気がしますね
|
Cracks begin to form in the Shield.
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- I don't know why I'm doing this.
|
- 魔力が切れても死ぬだけ……
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- I will die when my magic runs out, anyway.
|
- たいした意味はありません
|
???? |
????
|
- Is this...?
|
- ここが……
|
Shelke looks up and gasps.
|
Scene change; we see the "girl" was Lucrecia. It's another flashback; it's a flashback to when she first discovered the cave that would later be known as "Lucrecia's Cave"; the crystal formation is there as well.
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- Is this the place you spoke of?
|
- ここが、そうなんですね?
|
An older man is standing beside Lucrecia. His clothes slightly resemble Vincent's current attire, though they're almost entirely black.
|
???? |
????
|
- Yes. Deep within this grotto is
where Chaos is destined to awake.
|
- あぁ、この奥こそ、
カオスが生まれる場所に違いない
|
Lucrecia runs towards the crystals & giggles.
|
???? |
????
|
- Wait!
|
- あ、おい!
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- Come on, Dr. Valentine!
|
- 早く! グリモア博士!
|
Dr. Grimoire Valentine goes "heh"
|
Grimoire |
グリモア
|
- The fountain isn't going anywhere.
|
- 泉は逃げないよ
|
Scene change; we're in the laboratory of Shinra Manor, Grimoire is standing by Lucrecia's side as she works on the computer; a ball of dark energy appears to be festering inside one of the regenerative tubes.
|
Grimoire |
グリモア
|
- Don't you think you are
taking things a little too quickly?
|
- 少し、急ぎすぎてるんじゃないか?
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- And why not? All those people at
Shinra who laughed at my thesis... I have to prove them wrong!
|
- 急ぎますよ。私の論文を妄想だなんて言ってる
やつらを見返さなきゃならないんですから
|
Grimoire |
グリモア
|
- Rushing into matters
will get you nowhere, Doctor.
|
- 急いては事を仕損じるというがね
|
Grimoire looks at the black ball of energy and goes "Hmm?" The black ball soon expands, filling the tube. Lucrecia gets up from her computer, as the energy cracks the tube.
|
Grimoire |
グリモア
|
|
- ?
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
|
- え?
|
Grimoire |
グリモア
|
- Look out!
|
- あぶない!
|
Grimoire shoves Lucrecia out of the way, as the dark energy hits him in his right hand/arm. Lucrecia gets up and rushes to his side.
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- Are you alright, Dr. Valentine?
|
- 大丈夫ですか?!
|
Grimoire |
グリモア
|
- I'll be fine.
|
- あ、あぁ、大丈夫だ
|
Grimoire |
グリモア
|
- I'll be...
|
- 大丈夫……
|
Scene change; no idea where we are now (the background is black), but Grimoire is on his back and Lucrecia is by his side. His eyes are closed and green particles are floating upward from his body.
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- Dr. Valentine!
|
- グリモア博士!
|
Grimoire |
グリモア
|
- Tell my son that I'm sorry.
|
- 息子に……ヴィンセントに……
すまないと……
|
Lucrecia shakes her head.
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- Dr. Valentine!
Dr. Valentine!
|
- ダメです!
しっかりしてください!
|
He looks at her, as the green particle-evaporation quickens.
|
Grimoire |
グリモア
|
- My time has come
to return to the Lifestream.
|
- じゃあ……ボクは……
先に星へ還るよ……
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- No!
|
- いやぁーー!!
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- No! Come back! Why did you
have to fade away!? Why did you...
|
- いや! いや! なんで? なんで、
消えちゃうの? なんで、あなたが……
|
The camera pans out and we see Shelke is observing a crying Lucrecia.
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- It's alright.
He simply returned to the planet.
|
- 大丈夫……
星に……還っただけだから……
|
Scene change; still clearly a flashback, someone is crying over a cross draped with flowers, though we don't see who... we just see the cross.
|
Shalua |
????
|
- Stop crying, Shelke.
|
- もう、泣くな
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- But... But...
|
- だって……ぐすん
|
Shalua |
シャルア
|
- It's alright. Mom just returned
to the planet. We'll see her again.
|
- 大丈夫……星に還っただけだから……
また、会えるよ
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- We will?
|
- ぐすん……ほんと?
|
She turns around, and we see the Girl in question is a younger Shalua.
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- (Is this...)
|
- (……私……?)
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Of course we will.
|
- あぁ、本当だ
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- (No... Shalua?)
|
- (違う……姉さん……?)
|
Shalua |
シャルア
|
- Mom said everything in this world flows around
in a circle. That means she'll come back someday.
|
- この星の命は、巡ってるんだ。
母さんが言ってた。だから、また、会えるよ
|
The younger Shelke stops crying.
|
Shalua |
シャルア
|
- Mom wouldn't lie to us, right?
|
- 母さん、嘘つかないだろ?
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Right.
|
- ……うん
|
Shalua |
シャルア
|
- Right.
|
- だから……
|
Back to the present, Shelke is still dreaming or hallucinating.
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Shalua...
|
- 姉さん……
|
Shalua appears beside her.
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
|
- ?!
|
Shalua |
シャルア
|
- Shelke.
|
- ねぇ
|
Shalua |
シャルア
|
- Is it alright for me to return to the planet?
|
- 私も、星に還っていいかな?
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- No...
|
- ……だめ
|
Shalua |
シャルア
|
|
- ん?
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Not yet.
There's still so much I...
|
- まだ……だめ……
私、お姉ちゃんに……
|
Shalua |
シャルア
|
- Don't worry.
|
- 大丈夫
|
Shalua |
シャルア
|
- We'll see each other again.
|
- また会えるよ
|
We see Shelke is still inside her cracked Shield; she wakes up.
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- A dream?
|
- 夢……?
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- No... Data interference.
|
- いえ、また……断片が干渉を……
|
One teardrop rolls down her cheek; then another on the other cheek. She wipes the first one away.
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
|
- えっ?
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- I didn't think
I had any tears left.
|
- とっくに……
なくなってると……思ってました……
|
Back to Vincent, who's staring at the swirling dark energy he escaped from. He turns around and continues on: gameplay resumes, and he continues through Deepground's complex. Eventually he reaches a gateway, which puts him one step closer to Mako Reactor 0. But plumes of dark energy are scattered about, which can only mean...
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- A pleasure to finally meet you, Vincent.
|
- 初めまして……ですかね?
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Nero.
|
- ネロ
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- At first, I thought you nothing more
than a nuisance. However, it seems I can no longer let you run about unchained. I must protect my beloved brother.
|
- アナタはどちらかというと、
ボクたち寄りの存在だと思い、放っておきましたが、 これ以上、兄さんに近づくなら、消去しますよ?
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Your brother?
|
- 兄さん?
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- Dear Weiss. Powerful Weiss. The only person who
ever loved me. And the only person I will ever love.
|
- えぇ、ボクのヴァイス兄さん。ボクよりも強く、
世界で唯一ボクを愛してくれた兄さん
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- However...
|
- でも……
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- But that is all forgotten. In a matter
of moments, everything will change.
|
- まぁ、いいでしょう。それも、今日までです。
あと、少しで兄さんは……
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- What did you do with Shelke?
|
- シェルクはどうした?
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- Shelke?
|
- ? ……シェルク?
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- Ah yes, what did I do with her?
I do recall running into the lass when I journeyed to the airship. A feisty one, she is.
|
- あぁ、そういえば、どうしたのでしょうね?
確か、空に材料の回収をしに行った時、 ボクに向かってきた気がしました
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- The girl is inside me, lost like a little puppy.
|
- 多分、ボクの中で、消えてるんじゃないですかね?
|
Vincent lifts his gun, Nero goes "Ah"
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- So you wish to dance?
|
- いいですよ、少し……遊びましょうか?
|
Nero quickly draws both of his gun. You're thrown into a boss battle vs. Nero the Sable! A remarkably easy boss fight, too. Afterwards, Nero's on the ground; he gets up.
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- Impressive. Perhaps Azul and Rosso never
stood a chance against the mighty Valentine.
|
- なるほど……アスールやロッソが、
敗れたのも無理はないかもしれません
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- But enough. I have other matters to attend to.
|
- でも……そろそろ終わりにしましょう
|
Nero engulfs Vincent in darkness; the scene changes to Shelke, also in the darkness, with her cracked Shield-bubble losing strength.
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- So this is the end.
|
- 終わり……ですかね……
|
Someone is there; she looks up. It's Vincent!
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
|
- え?
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- I think you dropped this.
|
- 返しに来た
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Unless you find something appealing
about this place, I suggest we leave.
|
- こんな居心地の悪い場所で、
話し込むこともないだろう……
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Let's go.
|
- 出るぞ
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
|
- ……はい
|
Back on the battlefield, Nero is observing the darkness that he sent Vincent into. He begins to walk away, but out come Vincent & Shelke. Nero turns around.
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
|
- そうですか……
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- I see.
|
- カオス……
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- Soul wrought of terra corrupt.
|
- 命の淀みより、生まれし生命
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- My darkness would have
no control over you, would it?
|
- だから、その淀みを埋められた、
ボクの闇は効かない……
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- So I must try a different dance.
|
- そういうことですか
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- How about...
|
- なら……
|
He generates a large cloud of darkness behind him, but is quickly distracted as a shuriken hits the ground near his feet. We see Yuffie high above, sporting her "mysterious ninja" garb from the Shinra Manor.
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- Even in a world where fear and
despair reign over the heavens,
|
- 天網恢々、疎にして漏れちゃう世の中だけど
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- you must never forget--where there
is shadow, there is always light!
|
- 闇あるところにゃ光ある
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- That's right!
|
- そう……照らしてみせます
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- Bask in my rays, evildoers!
|
- アタシの光で!
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- Feel the radiance of Wutai
Super Ninja, Yuffie Kisaragi!
|
- ウータイ一のスーパー忍!
ユフィ・キサラギ!!
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- Back and ready for action!
|
- 後光を背負って……
再び参上!!!
|
Nero |
ネロ
|
- My brother calls.
|
- 兄さんが呼んでる……
|
He turns around and disappears in his darkness. Vincent looks at Shelke, who's sprawled on the ground.
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Are you alright?
|
- 大丈夫か?
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- I...
|
- ……えぇ
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- I don't know.
|
- 夢をみました
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Maybe I was dreaming.
|
- いえ……夢ではないですね……
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- Hey!
|
- お~い
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- Over here, guys!
|
- 無視すんな!
|
Trips due to the hand-waving; falls down hard. Vincent sighs.
|
Scene change; inside some room of the Deepground complex. Apparently here they have regenerative tubes, because Shelke is presently in one. Yuffie is by Vincent's side.
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Will you be alright?
|
- これでいいのか?
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Yes.
|
- はい
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Thank you.
|
- すみません……
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- Okay!
|
- よし!
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- Now, let me see if I've got this.
You keep going, find Nero and Weiss, and smack 'em into next Tuesday.
|
- じゃあ、さっき話したとおり、ヴィンセントは
このまま潜入、あわよくば、ネロとヴァイスを倒す
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- And while you're cleaning house,
I sneak into the reactor and shut her down.
|
- んで、アタシはその隙に、
中心部に侵入して炉を止めると
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- Sounds like a plan.
|
- まぁ、1人の方が、身軽でいいや
|
Yuffie |
ユフィ
|
- So, see ya around, Vince!
|
- んじゃ、ヴィンセントもがんばってねぇ~
|
She runs off. Vincent begins to walk away, but...
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Vincent Valentine.
|
- ヴィンセント・ヴァレンタイン
|
He turns back to face her. The camera pans out, and we see a nearby computer terminal state "Discoverer" followed by "Grimoire Valentine"
|
Flashback. Vincent walks into the laboratory in Shinra Manor.
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Lucrecia? Hello?
|
- ルクレツィア、ちょっと……
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Anybody here?
|
- いないのか?
|
As he looks around, he sees a computer terminal that profile's Grimoire Valentine's Shinra bio.
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Father?
|
- え?! 親父?
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- Who's...!?
|
- 誰?!
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
|
- あ……
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Lucrecia. This file...
|
- ルクレツィア……この資料は?
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- It's none of your business.
|
- あ、あなたには関係ないわ
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- But it is. Why didn't you tell me
you worked with my father?
|
- 関係ある。なぜ親父と? なんで……
|
He reaches for her arm, she smacks his hand away.
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- Stop it! Just stop it!
|
- やめて! 聞きたくない!
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Lucrecia...
|
- ルクレツィア……
|
The background is now black; we only see Lucrecia and Vincent.
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- I...
It was all my fault.
|
- だめ……。私のせいで、あの人……
|
We see Lucrecia and Vincent are now holding hands. She's on the verge of sobbing.
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- I didn't mean for your father to die.
I couldn't... I'm so sorry.
|
- あなたの……お父様が死んだの……、
だから……ダメ……なの……ごめんなさい
|
She starts to cry and runs away; Vincent just stands there.
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- But I never blamed her.
All I wanted was to see her smiling face.
|
- 関係ないと思った。
ただ、私は彼女の笑顔が見たかった……
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- But after that day,
the light left her heart.
|
- でも、あれから彼女は、
私の前で、笑わなくなった……
|
The camera pans away from Vincent. We see Lucrecia facing Hojo, as a light shines on him.
|
Hojo |
宝条
|
- So you've come to your senses and chosen me.
|
- じゃあ、私の元に来てくれるんだね?
|
Lucrecia |
ルクレツィア
|
- Yes, Doctor.
|
- はい
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- However, if she is happy, then I don't mind.
|
- 彼女が幸せなら……構わない……
|
{| class="wikitable" style="width: 100%;"
|-
| style="padding: 20px" |Fade out on Lucrecia and Hojo embracing, and Vincent standing around like the lonely sorry bastard he is.
|}
Back to the present; Shelke's wakes up inside the tube.
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Another dream?
|
- また……夢?
|
Vincent is standing in front of her.
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Vincent Valentine.
|
- ヴィンセント・ヴァレンタイン
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
|
- なんだ?
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Why are you fighting this battle?
|
- あなたは、なぜ、戦っているのですか?
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- To destroy Deepground
and stop Omega's return.
|
- やつらを倒し、オメガ復活を止める
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- It's time that an end is put to this madness.
Or at least, that is what I tell myself.
|
- ちゃんとした理由はあるのだろうし、これは、
ケリを付けねばならぬことのようにも思う
|
Vincent |
ヴィンセント
|
- Though I'm not completely
sure that's the reason.
|
- が……正直よく分からんな
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- Not sure.
Neither am I.
|
- そうです……よね……。
私も分かりません
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- But, Vincent...
|
- ただ……私は……
|
Shelke |
シェルク
|
- I don't want to see the world end.
I just don't want there to be any more pain.
|
- この星から命が消えてしまうのは、
とても……悲しいこと…… かもしれないと、そんなことを考えました
|
