Why did this have to happen?!
... Why?!
Stop it, everyone!
We... We can't...
I told you never to show your face again...
Because the next time, we'd be enemies.
This wasn't a mistake.
Even if I die here, I'll have no regrets.
I've lived doing what I know is right.
From yesterday, to today, through tomorrow!
I cannot sympathize with your choice.
You cannot run from Weiß...
... nor from the bloodied cross you willingly bore.
You can only live with the sin rotting within you.
... That is Weiß!
The oddly brilliant moonlight...
After it they chase...
How deep through the darkness?
How long through the present?
And people speak to far-blown winds...
Without knowing the reason.
Memories of strayed love...
Soar sadly into the sky.
The future breaks your heart...
And crushes your smile.
Thank to Charles Don Hall and LunaArts...
... for the RM-subtitling idea.
FOR FANS, BY FANS. NOT FOR SALE.

What's this crap?!
Don't try playing me for a fool!
Hey now, this is perfectly good money.
In Africa, this's enough to buy a car.
Then use that fool's money in Africa.
This is Japan, so pay up in Japanese yen!
Don't jump to conclusions.
This isn't Japan.
What? You're not making and sense--
This is Nichol...
Yes, understood.
We'll dispose of the vermin safely...
Yes, you can rest assured. Don't worry...
In a few days, that too will be disposed of...
Here, thank you for your patience.
Thank you!
You can handle that, Omi?
Yeah yeah, just fine---
Whew! That was close...
Sheesh...
Omi, you know the meaning of these Balsams?
"Scatterbrain".
Suits him perfectly!
And those Pinks that Ken's holding mean...
"Busybody".
We're at work.
There it is over there...
... the store where Omi works!
Can't we just go home?
Kaori, you promised!
You'd do whatever I say if I won that game.
But that's just a game! And well...
Oh, who cares?
We're here, so let's go!
Omi-ku~n.
We're here to hang out.
What a great store!
Yukie!
Oh, and Kaori, too!
I heard all the stories...
... but I guess they're all true!
About what?
That you were using a trailer as a mobile flowershop.
Oh, that? Yep, they're true.
And it's not just a flowershop...
This trailer's our home, too.
Wow, that's pretty cool!
From places with flowers to places without them...
... we can ride this baby anywhere in Japan!
You're going to leave?
Oh, yeah... cool...
Whad'you just say, Kaori?
I couldn't hear yo--u.
I just dunno what to do...
... when girls like you come here.
Compared to you two beauties...
... the flowers are but pale shadows.
Not really...
Youji-kun!!
These two are my FRIENDS, got it?
Don't get so uptight.
I told you, I'm only interested in girls over 18.
Over 18? Hmm...
Well now!
Only two more years to go! Almost there!
You serious?
Maybe you should rethink that...
Are you worried for me?
Wha? Don't get the wrong idea!
Kaori?
Kaori!!
What happened?
Nothing. We'll come back another time.
W... wait, Yukie!
What's up with her?
I don't know...
Could I get this please?
Uh? Sure!
I'd like to buy this flower...
Gotcha!
Hallo, Akane!
Let's have some fun on the net tonight!
Get a trace on the site where Kaori's at.
Yeah, I'm in!
Ah, tell Kaori not to go in too deep this time...
Reina's got work today...
... so I can't do back-up, and be clean-up, too---
Huh?
THAT'S MY FRUIT MILK!!!
REINA!!!
All... ALL MY FRUIT MILK!!!
Geez, enough about your Fruit Milk!
Kaori, how're you doing?
You're still at the front page, so you don't need me yet.
I'm gonna hit the convenience store.
You want anything, Kaori?
Potato chips and Fruit Milk!
Don't tell me you want Fruit Milk?!
Well, half-liter or pint-size?
A pint is enough for me!
And sour cream and onion potato chips.
Agh! Okay, I'll be back in a jiffy.
Yukie...
[Operation in Progress]
How's Kaori?
She wasn't hurt as badly as could be expected...
... but she was knocked into a coma.
She was lucky she survived in the middle of that explosion.
So she survived, only by being outside the blast edge...
God is awful, to let such an accident happen.
It wasn't necessarily an accident.
Eh...?
Hokusei HS sophomore Yukie Kashiragi, 16...
... was discovered shot and was rushed to the ER...
... but died without regaining consciousness.
The police pledged to investigate this vicious act...
Hokusei High School?
That's where Omi goes to... Huh?
Those're the girls who were talking to Omi!
Not a coincidence, probably.
But, they must've been right in the blast...
They used an experimental nerve gas.
After killing them with the gas...
... they added another kind...
... and destroyed the rooms of any evidence.
And so after killing the girls, the criminals left...
... to some place no police investigation can reach.
Who did this, Youji-kun?
Who could've this to Kaori and the others?
Don't you know, Youji-kun?!
There's no organization in Japan able to use explosives...
... acquire nerve gases, and still operate unmolested.
If any, it's...
It can't be!
Indeed it is.
Those who flee within these fences...
... are not subject to Japanese law.
This US Army base operates under foreign laws...
... and the Japanese authorities have no power.
But...
Why'd the American army kill high school girls...
What's up, Aya?
Who th'hell was that?
Kaori, a friend told me to bring this!
Omi...
We've got a mission.
Members of Weiß.
Your target is American Airforce...
... 18th squad leader Colonel Raymond Nichol.
It appears that he has sold weapons to the...
... blackmarket for no doubt enormous profit.
In order to preserve his secret...
... he has surrounded himself with brutal killers.
There is no doubt that the recent...
... high school girl deaths was due to their means.
However, as they are beyond the reach...
... of the Japanese authorities...
... their crimes have been left uninvestigated.
White hunters of evil...
... Hunt the futures of these dark beasts!
It woulda been simpler for him just to say ...
... that we're up against the American army!
I think it's a foe easily downed, don't you?
I'll bring your black sake, as usual.
I'm always thankful for you.
It might just be the monitor, but...
... Manx, you look a little pale...
Are you well?
Just these damned allergies.
Black lilies really do me in.
Hayfever?
I didn't think you were so delicate.
You won't realize the truth relying only on looks.
Something you should learn better.
All right, okay.
Manx, do you know Colonel Nichol's location?
According to the records...
... he's nestled in a grave in Ireland.
He's dead?
Five years ago in Bosnia...
... he disappeared in a supporting attack.
But, it's obvious he's still alive.
Why'd he try to kill Kaori and her friends?
Probably because somehow those girls...
... knew something about the Colonel's secret...
If so, then since they failed to kill Kaori-chan...
... they'll probably track her down again.
Well, I'll leave Kaori-chan in Omi's hands.
Ken'n I've another girl to chase after.
Right.
What other girl?
That is, the missing Reina Yuuki.
Hey Youji, you're tellin' me a high-school girl...
... works at a joint like this?
Y'shouldn't need to ask that.
This's how the world is.
Welcome! Who would you like?
Who? Huh?
Is Reina-chan here today?
Reina, is it?
Unfortunately, she has today off.
How about Vanilla-chan?
You can have her free of charge.
Levania-chan?
That's "Vanilla-chan"! Va-nil-la.
She'll be free, sure thing!
Youji!!
Sir!! Sir!!!!
Please stop, Reina!!
So you must be Reina-chan?
What's got you this frightened?
No...
No! Don't come any closer!
Please, calm down, Reina-chan.
We're not enemies.
Li...lies! You're here to kill me...
Just like Yukie and Kaori...
No! We're Omi's friends.
We here to help you.
No! Don't move!
You gotta tell us what happened!
Why's the US Army after you?!
It was a game.
It was just supposed to be a game!
A game?
We... we played around on the Internet.
We hacked into Kaori's targets...
... erased data, changed data, inserted viruses.
Akane and I backed her up and cleaned the tracks.
It was a game!
But one day, Kaori hacked into something...
... that she never should've...
The US Army base's computer?
Yes... We picked the wrong data to uncover.
The Rats!
The Rats are after us!
Dammit!
It's them...
This fake army you have here...
... certainly redeems all your trafficking in Africa.
I've only dealt in good money since I retired.
And are those still your intentions, Colonel Nichol?
I had money five years ago, too.
It's just easier to get, now.
[Kaori Hibana]
Where am I...?
Omi-kun?
Hospital...
I...
Yukie!
You think you can escape?!This is Blue Rats, it's Case D.
What's following you?
Unknown pursuer, sir.
Blue Rats, open fire upon reaching point M-3.
Roger.
Shit!!
Who the hell is THAT?!
That was damn hazardous.
That car can move pretty fast.
Both of you, get out!
Yukie...
Akane...
Reina...
I'm sorry.
Just who the hell is he?
That stupid punk...
Was that him...?
We know where Nichol is.
We've an emergency mission as well.
Here it is...
Huh...? I fell asleep...
Kaori!
Just who are you?
And you, why're you after Colonel Nichol?
You know of Nichol?
I'm after him for my parents' revenge!
Revenge, for your folks?
Yes. And now for my little sister's, too.
Little sister...
You don't mean Kaori-chan and the others?
Why do you know Kaori?
What happened to Ken?
He blew up'n chased after.
I see...
Kaori...!
It's all my fault...
Yukie, Akane... even Reina...
If it weren't for him, they'd still be...
Five years ago, a US Army plane...... crashed into our house. Kaori and I were at school at the time...... but both of our parents...Father!! Mother!!Kaori!!Nooooo!!!!!It was Colonel Nichol who'd contrived the 'accident'?
Yeah.To prevent exposure of his blackmarket sales...... he arranged to shut the mouth of...... one of his own fellow pilots.So Colonel Nichol...
Yes. Then with the help of Yukie and the rest...
... I infiltrated the US Army computers.
It was just a game to them, something they...
... could boast about on their homepages, but I...
Kaori...
Omi-kun...!
Kaori!!!
Big brother!!
Kaori...
Big brother...
White Rats are at point D-2, confirmed!
Red Rats are at point D-1, confirmed!
Begin.
Looks like the coast's clear.
You're not paying attention, Ken...
Get outta the way...Ken.
The hell's going on, Youji?
Youji-kun!
I've been given another mission.
The target is... Akira Hibana.
W...wait a sec!
There musta been some kinda mistake, Youji!
Akira's not...
Ken... his hands are soaked in blood.
You saw how he handled that shotgun.
He's Hibana, originally a motorized Police officer.
For revenge, he got his own sister...
... to hack into the US army mainframe.
He stole sidearms and munitions by...
... pulling his rank, murdered US Army soldiers...
All just to flush Nichol out.
Just what the hell're you guys?!
Akira, don't!
A lamb who's tasted blood becomes a wolf.
It cannot return to the flock.
Wh...what ARE you?!
To those about to die, I have no name.
Let your sins drag you down the depths of hell!
Ken!
Omi! Get them outta here!!
What?! But Ken-kun...!!
Just get outta here!
I'll be right behind ya!!!
Ken-kun...
Get out NOW!!!
Come'n! This way!
Ken! You know what it means right?
... to interfere in a mission!
I know...
But I can't just stand aside!
We're no different from him!
Without Persia, we'd be just like him!!
Ken...
Die... in agony.
I hope you know what you're doing... Ken.
Up until now, I'd fantasized that...... doing these missions would cleanse my sins. Whatever...Even if I never take another mission... ... I'll bear that cross of sin...It is unfortunate...
... but traitors have appeared within Weiß.
If they will not comply with the mission...
... they are naught but mere murderers.
These traitors have willingly...
... taken of blood and sin for others.
White hunters of evil...
... Hunt the futures of these dark beasts!
There's nothing, nothing
It meant to tremble but only flickered
And so the lovers silently fall apart
The flesh and now the soul
Feels the tenderness and lets not go
Keep it protected deep in the heart
So you and I can gently fan the flames.
