Act Two, Part Two
Omi, Yomi, and Takato are near the park,
but it’s a complete wreck. Trees are down, playground equipment is randomly
dispersed over various areas, and no road is completely discernable. They
struggle along.
Yomi: Don’t you think this is a little drastic? I mean, not being able to find
your parents is bad, but isn’t it a little early to give up hope?
Takato: Gillmon was the best friend I ever had. Without anyone to take care of
me here, I’d probably be safer in a different world.
Omi: Why don’t why try enlisting this Gillmon’s help first? You were able to
stop D-Reaper with him; maybe we could use your help. It would be more useful
than running away.
Takato: Okay. I’ll see what I can do.
Yomi: First we have to find this stupid shed you keep talking about.
Takato: I could have sworn it was around here somewhere.
Omi: (nervous) We’re very vulnerable right now. Whatever happened, it happened
here. And recently.
Takato: Hey, I think I see it up ahead.
They hear voices nearby.
Omi: Who’s that?
Takato calls out to them.
Takato: Hello?!
Chiharu calls back.
Chiharu: Hello??
Chiharu, Rika, Naoko, Tomoyo, and Juri approach.
Yomi: It’s Sakura’s friends! And Juri?
Juri: I’ve been looking for Alice and I ran into them.
Naoko: Yes, and we’ve been looking for Sakura and ran into her.
Rika: So we’re looking for them together!
Chiharu: After seeing that demon god, the more people with us, the better.
Tomoyo: He was quite scary!
Yomi: But Tomoyo! I warned you! We could have had Sakura halfway to beating this
thing by now if it weren’t for you!
Tomoyo: (a little annoyed) Yes, but it’s standard policy not to let anybody find
out about what she can do.
Chiharu: Besides, what can Sakura do?
Tomoyo: It’s best this way.
Yomi: Why do you say that?
As he always seems to do, Jinnai strolls in from out of nowhere.
Jinnai: It doesn’t matter. Like I said, demon gods aren’t killed through card
tricks.
Omi: Okay, I’m the grown-up here, I think we should all go back to the store and
figure out how to find the others. Alright?
Jinnai: That’s a bad idea. I saw the demon god on my way here. For some reason,
he decided to make a second pass through the neighborhood. This time your store
got the same treatment as my apartment.
Omi: Oh no-
Takato: Maybe we should all go to the Digital World and--
A rumbling. All are nervous and all clump together. Even Jinnai is frightened
at this point. Eventually, the demon god appears, rising through the ground and
facing the nine at some distance. He looks human enough, and has glazed eyes and
a wry expression. Although he does hover in the air. Finally, Jinnai manages to
confirm the obvious.
Jinnai: That’s a demon god alright.
God: Demon? Simply God is enough. This is indeed the form of one of El Hazard’s
puny demon gods. But I am truly the God of the Wired, here to enact my revenge
on the one called Lain.
Juri: Lain?
Chiharu: We don’t know who you’re talking about.
God: Find me Lain or face the consequences!
Jinnai puts his hands up.
Jinnai: We’ll get Lain right away! Just stay there and we’ll deliver...
Takato rushes forward, until Jinnai restrains him.
Takato: Wait a minute! Why should he get what he wants? He destroyed half the
city! He killed my parents!
God: And who killed me?? I gave Lain unimaginable powers over the Wired and what
does Lain do? Betrays me and destroys me using a trick that I myself bestowed
upon the child.
Omi: Lain acted alone! We have no responsibility in the matter! Please show
mercy on us mere-
Jinnai: Don’t patronize him.
Jinnai looks at Omi. He also notices Tomoyo filming God.
Jinnai: And don’t videotape him either!
A little embarrassed, Tomoyo puts the camera down.
Tomoyo: Sorry.
God: Deliver me the Lain!!
Takato: We don’t know where Lain is!
Naoko: Half of us don’t even know *who* Lain is!
God: One of you must be the Lain. Since you have asked for mercy, I shall only
kill the one who is.
Pause. The group quietly huddles up.
VOM: Now, remember that this is the God of the Wired, and since Lain removed
herself from the Wired, God had no idea who or what Lain was. Only that the name
of his murderer was Lain. He didn’t know Lain’s age- or even her gender.
Omi: (to Jinnai) Hey, what happened to those elemental powers we gave you?
Jinnai: Ifurita destroyed my staff before I got a chance to use it.
Yomi: Well, you never helped us with the store, so I’d say we’re even.
Jinnai: Well, I’d say we have to give him somebody.
Yomi: Who?
Jinnai looks up at Juri.
Jinnai: You’re one of Lain’s friends. What’s your name?
Juri: My name’s Juri.
Jinnai grabs Juri’s hand.
Jinnai: Ah! The D-Reaper girl! You’ll be perfect!
Takato interferes.
Takato: Wait, hold on! You’re thinking of a different Juri.
Juri forces herself free on the grip.
Juri: Yeah, I was nowhere near that thing. And I wasn’t near Lain when she was
in the Wired killing deities!
God: I’m getting impatient!!
More hesitation by everybody.
VOM: Now you see, with the exception of Takato and Jinnai, this group was pretty
much innocent people who had no experience whatsoever with something as powerful
as this god. And even Takato and Jinnai were only partially experienced- living
vicariously through their power sources and stubbornly believing that they’d end
up on top no matter how many times they screwed up.
Jinnai: I’ve got it!
Jinnai walks halfway up to God and points to Chiharu, Rika, and Naoko.
Jinnai: Pick whichever of those three looks most like Lain- and you can have
her.
Chiharu, Rika, and Naoko all freak.
Chiharu, Rika, Naoko: HEY!!
Jinnai turns to them.
Jinnai: You’re minor characters!! Do something significant for a change!!
Chiharu, Rika, and Naoko take a step forward and face him.
Chiharu, Rika, Naoko: We like being minor characters, thank you!!
Yomi: Jinnai, stop that!
Omi: Needlessly throwing him third-string characters like them and Juri won’t do
any good.
Jinnai: Well, what’s your plan?
God: You’re starting to get annoying!
VOM: In a way, it’s interesting to see this particular group face this monster.
Takato and Jinnai have been rendered powerless, Yomi and Omi are now really
facing the world, and Tomoyo and her friends are no longer behind the shroud of
Sakura’s magic.
Takato and Jinnai look upwards, followed quickly by Yomi, Omi, and Tomoyo.
Chiharu, Rika, Naoko, and Juri also look up.
VOM: What are you looking at?
Takato steps forward, trying to talk to Voice-Over Man.
Takato: Who are you anyway?
VOM: I’m the Voice-Over person. I act as narrator, transitioning between
episodes of your life.
Jinnai: So, you’re omniscient?
VOM: In a way, yes.
Yomi turns to Jinnai and smiles, a little sly.
Yomi: You know, that kind of ability to see everything that goes on in the world
sounds an awful lot like a power Lain would have.
Jinnai: Yomi’s got a point.
VOM: Wait- what are you suggesting?
Chiharu: You’ve been watching us the whole time?!
Juri: I bet you do all sorts of gross stuff like watch us in the shower or
something.
VOM: I’m just trying to tell the story!!
Jinnai: And let me guess- you just happened to decide that I was the bad guy?
Tomoyo: That’s awfully subjective of you, Mr. Voice-Over Man.
VOM: Well, if you guys want your adventures divided up nicely and neatly into
episodes, I suggest you keep me around.
Yomi: Ooh, point.
Takato: That is convenient sometimes.
VOM: Would you like to live without any story arcs? With no discernable plot or
character development? Doesn’t sound like much fun does it?
They begin to turn away, and back to addressing God.
Omi: Definitely not.
Jinnai abruptly looks up at God and points upwards.
Jinnai: That’s Lain!!
God shoots skyward, past where any of them can see.
VOM: Wait a minute! No! I’m not Lain!!
Bolt of thunder.
God: This is not Lain!!
Rika: What happened to the voice person?
VOM: Aaaah!!
They all jump back and see an ordinary looking middle-aged man fall onto the
pavement, dead. After recovering from the initial shock. Yomi runs up to Jinnai.
Yomi: Why did you tell God he was Lain?
Jinnai: He was really aggravating. Besides, none of you had any better ideas.
Takato: But now life can’t be divided into episodes. We’re stuck.
Tomoyo: I’m sure we’ll get by.
God returns.
God: For the last time- Lain.
Alice appears, running through group and almost up to God’s face. Takato and
Jinnai restrain her from going up farther.
Alice: (angry) I will not give you Lain! It’s not her fault she rediscovered
herself on the Wired!! If you absolutely need to blame somebody, blame the
people that gave her that Navi!
Takato, Chiharu: Yeah!
Yomi, Omi: No!
God: You! You were the creature that Lain chose as master over me!
Alice: I’m not Lain’s master. I’m her friend! That’s what you don’t understand!
She stood up for me back then and now I’m going to stand up for her right now!
So back off!
God: Your concern for a flawed emotion such as friendship displeases me.
Alice: I don’t really care! You aren’t a God of the real world! You’re just a
freak who threw himself back together after Lain rightfully destroyed you!!
By now, the others are getting a little worried.
Rika: Um, you shouldn’t anger him.
Alice: You will never get Lain!
Juri: Uh, Alice??
Yomi approaches Alice, but Alice quickly shoves her back into the group. By
now, the others are all thinking of ways to stop her. Finally, Naoko gets an
idea and whispers it to Tomoyo.
God: This is your last warning!!
Tomoyo carefully approaches Alice, occasionally looking back for reassurance.
Alice: And this is yours! You return to whatever world you came from or you will
be sorry you--
Tomoyo rushes forward and bashes Alice in the back of the head with the video
camera. Alice falls, and is quickly caught by Juri and Yomi, who help get her
out of the way.
God: For the last time. Where is Lain?!
Ifurita: Stop right there.
Ifurita, now armed with her staff, begins marching towards the new demon god.
God: Are you Lain?
Jinnai steps between them.
Jinnai: No! This isn’t!!
Jinnai turns to Ifurita.
Jinnai: Don’t fight him! This isn’t just any demon god.
Makoto comes in from the same direction. Frantically, Takato tries to make
something up.
Takato: Lain’s hiding in, um, Tomoeda!!
Naoko: (quiet, angry) No!
Takato: What?
Omi: Yeah! She’s in Tomoeda!
Makoto: Ifurita, let’s take care of this thing.
Jinnai: No! Don’t listen to him!!
Ifurita shoves Jinnai to a side and she and Makoto rush into battle.
Jinnai: Makoto! You idiot!
God: After disposing of these two, I will scour Tomoeda for her.
Naoko: I was afraid of that.
Ifurita flies towards God. It’s a short battle, as one blast from God sends
Ifurita flying towards Makoto. Both are knocked to the ground.
Jinnai: Ifurita!!
God sends a power-line down, electrocuting them. One final blast and Ifurita
is clearly destroyed, taking Makoto with her. God doesn’t stay to savor the
victory, as he flies towards Tomoeda. Meanwhile, Yomi screams for a different
reason. They surround her. There’s a good deal of blood on her hands.
Yomi: Tomoyo, how hard did you hit her?
Juri: (frantic) Alice??
Alice opens her eyes, weakly.
Alice: (weak) Don’t... let him get... Lain.
Omi: No, of course not.
Alice: Promise me. She fought so hard to live a normal life. I’ll die happy
knowing she’ll continue to.
Yomi: She’ll be as normal as it gets around here.
Alice: Promise?
Omi: Yes, we promise.
Alice: Lain... I love...
Alice dies. Takato slowly approaches her. Omi pushes him away.
Omi: You don’t want to see this.
Juri stands up and walks up to Tomoyo.
Juri: You killed her.
Tomoyo is slowly beginning to panic. Her hands are shaking.
Tomoyo: I didn’t know how hard to hit her.
Chiharu, Rika, and Naoko surround Tomoyo. Rika takes Tomoyo’s hands.
Chiharu: We had to stop her somehow; she was going to get us all killed.
Rika: It’s okay, Tomoyo. It’s not your fault.
18. Jinnai’s Lament
Meanwhile, Jinnai looks over at Ifurita and Makoto. He is a combination of
angry and sad.
Jinnai: This is what feelings bring.
You should have helped me.
Love is a fragile thing,
One day it’s kind,
The next- it kills.
With the exception of Omi and Juri, who are taking care of Alice, the others are all watching Jinnai spill his heart out.
Jinnai: No matter what you say,
No one will help you.
No matter what you need,
Everyone’s on their own.
Maybe along the way.
Seems like they help you.
No, it is only greed.
They fake helping you,
While helping themselves!
Jinnai rejoins the group as Chiharu, Rika,
Naoko, and Tomoyo begin to walk away.
Chiharu: Life was perfectly normal, with nothing unusual at all- and now God’s
going to destroy our homes and Tomoyo accidentally killed somebody.
Rika: Please, let’s just get out of here before anything else happens.
Yomi: Where are you four off to?
Naoko: Yokohama. I have a friend there that can help us.
Jinnai: You can’t run from this thing.
Yomi: Transportation’s down throughout the city. You’ll never make it.
Takato: And besides, we have to stick together.
Chiharu and Naoko walk up to them.
Chiharu: We’re not magical. We’re not strong. We don’t have any monster friends.
We’re just normal, innocent, scared girls that don’t have anything to add to the
team. We accept that- so we’re getting out of here while we still can.
Naoko: Besides, Tomoyo should get out of town until this whole thing dies down
anyway. You all can handle this, right?
Chiharu and Naoko rejoin Rika and Tomoyo and they walk off. Omi rejoins Yomi.
Takato: I don’t know.
The four leave. Yomi turns around angrily.
Yomi: They’re running away now? I hope that monster destroys all of their
houses.
Omi: Yomi, don’t say that!
Jinnai: (to Omi) You were thinking it too. We all were.
Takato: This is awful! Four people just died!
Jinnai: Since when did you care? How many Digimon have you destroyed?
Takato: That’s something completely different!
Jinnai: You’re the one who keeps saying they’re living creatures.
Omi: Fighting won’t help. We have to think of something.
Jinnai: It’s simple. Find Lain and give God want he wants.
Takato: But he’ll kill her!
Jinnai: Would you rather he kill half the people in Tomoeda?
Yomi: But Lain is innocent! She just got caught up in something over her head!
Besides, the God’s obviously back to life now. No harm, no foul!
Jinnai: Give me a break! He wants vengeance! He’s sworn revenge on Lain and
doesn’t care who or what he rips through in this world to get to her! You can
talk about reasoning with him all you want. But I’m going to find her and
deliver her like we should have done at the start!
Jinnai storms off.
Takato: Well, are we going to let him?
Omi: No. It’s not fair.
Yomi: We have to find her first.
Omi: And with them gone, and Juri taking care of Alice, it’s just us three.
Takato: Where should I look?
Omi: Takato, you have to try to get in contact with your Digimon. So stay here
in the park. Yomi and I will split up and we’ll meet back here in two hours.
Yomi: Wait, two hours? But what if God finishes off Tomoeda by then? If he comes
back, Takato’s a sitting duck.
Omi: He won’t come back empty-handed. And if he does, he wouldn’t kill Takato if
he was alone.
Yomi: How do you know?
Omi: Trust me.
Yomi: But why would-
Omi: (raising his voice) Because I’m your father and I said so!!
Omi turns away, mad at himself for having done that.
Omi: Back here in two hours. And please be careful, okay?
Omi walks off. Yomi is still stunned at her father losing his temper, but
soon walks off as well, leaving Takato in the park.
Omi is walking past some houses. Nobody
else is in sight for a long while.
Omi: Lain! Lain! Lain! Why does this never seem to work?
Yukito walks past him and stops him.
Yukito: Excuse me, I’m looking for someone.
Omi: So am I. I believe I remember you. You’re friends with that Sakura girl,
right?
Yukito: Yes, and that’s who I’m looking for. I’m worried that there’s a demon
god nearby and just want to make sure she’s safe.
Omi: There’s definitely a demon god nearby. My daughter and I had a
confrontation with it. We were lucky to escape alive.
Yukito nears Omi, intensely worried.
Yukito: How did you survive it?
Omi: He’s looking for a girl named Lain. We pointed him in a direction, the
wrong direction I’m afraid, and now we have to find Lain before he comes back.
Yukito: Did you say you had a daughter?
Omi: Yes. Her mother has been long gone, and she means the world to me. If
anything happened to her, I don’t know what I would do.
Yukito: I admire a father who has so much love for his daughter. I feel the same
way about Sakura. She’s like a little sister. Although she may have a crush on
me.
Omi: I take it you don’t return those feelings?
Yukito: No... I’m afraid I could never have those kind of feelings for her.
Abruptly, Yukito launches into a song.
19. Yaoi Moment
Yukito: Crazy things can happen in the world...
Shall I hold you?
Yukito puts an arm around Omi’s shoulder. Omi’s eyes are jolted open.
Yukito: Spend your time in good company--
Don’t worry.
Omi immediately shakes himself away from it.
Omi: Why are you doing this?
What are you telling me?
I think there’s a problem!
Omi puts a hand up.
Omi: I consider myself very open-minded. But what about Sakura?
Yukito: What about her?
Omi: What about my daughter?
Yukito: That’s true. To many girls this is very strange.
Yukito returns to singing, taking Omi’s hand.
Yukito: Stranger things have happened in the world.
Let things happen.
Something strange that some call yaoi.
Why let moments pass you by?
Every moment, people cry,
For a little shounen-ai.
Yaoi moment.
Yukito is now really coming in close to
Omi, who is slowly beginning to fall under Yukito’s spell. He’s taking in the
moment, for awhile, until he breaks away.
Omi: But I don’t know you!
Yukito holds a hand out.
Yukito: No one knows what happens in the world.
No predicting.
Omi falters a little and takes Yukito’s hand.
Yukito: Single moments are all we see.
Yukito holds Omi in close. Omi no longer resists, and goes with it.
Yukito: We can’t stand here hesitating.
We can’t keep the fangirls waiting!
We can’t waste this captivating,
Dissipating, yaoi moment.
Turning now to Yomi, who is back at the
store, which is now completely reduced to rubble. Yomi is very much in anguish,
until she sees Sakura sitting nearby, sad but not crying. Yomi runs up to her.
Yomi: Sakura! Your friends have been looking all over for you.
Sakura: My friends? Are they alright?
Yomi: Tomoyo and the others have given up and got out of town.
Sakura: I hope they make it. What about Yukito? And my father and brother?
Yomi: (sad) I don’t know. The demon god is attacking Tomoeda as we speak. But
you can stop him, right? You know magic.
Sakura: (very sad) I don’t think so. The cards haven’t been answering me. They
must not accept me anymore. Maybe I’ve worked them too hard.
Yomi: You’ve got to keep trying. But you can’t stay here. We need to stick
together to beat this thing.
Yomi takes Sakura’s hand.
Yomi: Come on, Takato’s hiding in the park. My dad will meet us there.
Sakura: All right.
Yomi and Sakura run back to the park.
Back to Yukito and Omi. They are holding
each other close- in the exact same position as last seen. They don’t appear to
have moved at all. Suddenly, Yukito pushes away and holds up a hand.
Yukito: That’s enough.
Omi: (surprised) What?
Yukito: Yaoi moments are precious. To be enjoyed, but not to be so overdone they
upset people.
Omi: How was that upsetting? It was... comforting. Will I see you again? For...
another moment?
Open Yaoi Moment- Part 2
Yukito: Why belabor moments in the world?
Many moments.
Let them come and go as they please.
End the moment, without haste.
Going further’s out of taste.
Yaoi moments can’t be wasted,
When we’re in the world.
Yukito walks away.
Yukito: I enjoyed this very much. You’ve given me courage and hope for the
future. I hope we both find even more pleasurable moments elsewhere. Goodbye.
Yukito leaves. Omi sits there, totally
stunned for awhile.
Omi: Ooookay...
Omi: Who was he? What was that?
How’d I feel when he held me?
And held me... and held me?
When he held me some more.
Who am I? What is this?
Why’d he leave? Did he tell me?
Why do moments end very suddenly?
Omi snaps out of it, stands up, and walks down the street.
Omi: Get up! Get going,
Get out of this foreign world.
Stop this! Stop slowing.
Stop flying above the world.
Back to task, back to park, back to store, back to daughter.
And back into the world.
There’s a grace, there’s esteem.
There’s a line I am crossing.
I must keep it uncurled.
But who says it’s wrong?
Do whatever makes you happy.
If my girl found it, would she just play along?
Would she care? Would she slap me?
Happy?! In this world?!
Never mind, never fear, never stall, never bother.
Never question the world.
Was that right? Just a bit. Was that wrong? Just a little.
Just stop judging the world.
It’s a moment.
It’s a strange, surprising moment.
Doesn’t help to analyze with care,
If it’s good or bad.
Doesn’t hurt to share,
The emotions had.
All it was back there,
Was a moment in the world.
Oh, if we could pick our moments,
Know the bad ones and refuse them.
But to turn down any moments,
Is like saying that we lose them.
First a wish, then a Navi, then a scene out of Gravi--
One bewildering world.
And to have all of those, through a long line of moments,
One mysterious world.
Now this moment’s past,
Just make sure to make the moment last.
And remember that each moment’s short, each one on one line,
And that line may bind up and intertwine.
Suddenly I find-
I like living in this world.
Taking off his glasses for a moment of
inner peace, Omi continues his task.
Omi: Lain! Lain! Lain!
Suddenly, the skies grow much darker and the earth begins to tremble.
Omi: Lain!
From out of nowhere, the voice of God booms down.
God: Lain is not to be found.
Omi suddenly begins to worry, dropping his glasses.
God: You said Lain would be in Tomoeda. Did you lie to me?
Omi doesn’t answer. Instead he looks toward a nearby house for shelter. He
runs to it, and frantically tries opening the door. It doesn’t really matter.
The demon god descends and shoots a bolt of energy at the house. The house
explodes, with the debris crashing into Omi, colliding head-on with him and
partially burying him underneath.
Later at the park, Yomi, Sakura, and Takato
are waiting for Omi. Are are somewhat frightened.
Takato: It’s been more than two hours.
Yomi: He’d be back by now.
Sakura: Do you think something happened?
Yomi: No, of course not. If anybody can take care of himself, it’s Dad. I’d
better go try to find him.
Yomi goes out but Takato takes her hand, stopping her.
Takato: Yomi, it’s too dangerous. We have to stay together. Besides, the demon
god might come back any minute.
Yomi: But we have to look for him!
Jinnai comes in dragging Lain by the collar. He’s very satisfied with
himself. Lain is holding a pair of glasses.
Jinnai: Looks like I win!
Lain: Please, it was in self-defense.
Jinnai: Then you should have made sure he was gone!
Sakura: Let her go!!
Takato: Yeah, we can’t just throw her at that thing!
Jinnai: Why not?
Takato: Because it’s wrong!!
Yomi notices the glasses and takes them.
Yomi: These glasses! They’re Dad’s. Where did you find them?
Lain sighs, hesitant to answer. Jinnai feels no such hesitation, but takes no
joy in the answer.
Jinnai: He’s dead.
Yomi looks at Jinnai, partially disbelieving, partially distraught.
Yomi: No...
Lain: He was trapped under what used to be a house.
Yomi: Dad...
Jinnai: I found Lain standing there... crying.
Sakura and Takato go up to Yomi in a futile effort to comfort her.
Sakura: Oh, I’m so sorry.
Yomi: How did this happen? It can’t be. What am I supposed to do now?
Lain: His final words were to make sure you took good care of the store.
Jinnai, in a moment of lapse, lets go of Lain. Lain seizes the opportunity
and runs to Sakura and Takato for protection.
Yomi: (upset) How can I? He was everything...
Jinnai: Oh, get over it.
Takato: Her dad just died! How can you say that?!
Jinnai: How is her father different from everyone that died this morning? Or the
hundreds in that apartment? Or everybody in Tomoeda that died just because you
wanted to stall him.
Jinnai advances toward Lain, who continues to cower behind Sakura and Takato.
Jinnai: Fortunately, we can get through this with only one more casualty. Lain-
time to meet your maker!
Lain: I don’t want to meet my maker. He kills my friends.
Sakura: You can’t do this!
Takato: We won’t let you!
Yomi: No, let him do it!
Sakura and Takato look over at Yomi, who looks at Lain with hostility.
Yomi: Because of Lain, there’s a demon god destroying the city and my father is
dead!!
21. Your Fault
Since it's hard to follow with the accompaniment, here is
an a capella version.
Remember- Lain: Trombone, Yomi: Guitar, Takato: Clarinet, Sakura: Harp, Jinnai:
Sax
Lain: But it isn’t my fault,
I was stuck in the Wired,
I was perfectly content to stay out of the Wired.
But because of you, I got in the Wired.
And found out who this God was in the first place.
Yomi lashes out at Lain.
Yomi: Wait a minute, that Navi that we gave to you,
Was a trade that we had made to get the bear from you!
How were those two things of the same value?!
And you even tried to steal the bear when you were through!
Takato: (to Lain) Yeah, it’s your fault!
Lain: No!
Yomi: Yes, it’s your fault!
Lain: No!
Takato: Yes it is!
Lain: Is not!
Yomi: It’s true!
Lain lashes at Yomi.
Lain: Wait a minute, since the only thing I wanted was the bear back,
From you!
Takato turns on Yomi.
Takato: So it’s your fault!
Lain: Yes!
Yomi: No it isn’t!
Since the bear was one of the magic four.
We needed to give Jinnai to help save the store!
They all look up at Jinnai, who immediately dismisses it.
Jinnai: It’s Nanami’s fault that you got involved.
It was my Navi in the first place!
Takato: Oh, so it’s her fault!
Jinnai: So?
Sakura: It was her fault?
Lain: No.
Yomi: Yeah it is, it’s hers.
Sakura: Perhaps.
Lain: Wait a minute, he was killed in the Wired. That we know,
And his new form is from El Hazard and so,
Then how did the god get into Tokyo in the first place?!
Lain gets another thought.
Lain: Second place-
Sakura: Yeah!
Takato: How?
Yomi: Uh...
Lain: Your dad took the other one.
Yomi: The other one?
Sakura: The other what?
Lain: He took a second Navi.
Yomi: He didn’t!
Yes he did--
Takato: So it’s his f--!!
Yomi: No it isn’t, ‘cause he passed on to me!
Takato: So it’s your f--!!
Yomi: NO IT ISN’T!!
Sakura: So where is it?
Yomi: Wait a minute!
It’s the Navi I took to Tomoeda,
So the one that knows what happened would be Sakura!
Everybody looks at Sakura, who takes the defensive.
Sakura: You mean that Navi that you gave away?
Well I didn’t care and left it there and so... HOE?!
Sakura looks up in horror as they all target her.
Takato: So it’s your fault!!
Sakura: No!
Lain: Yes, it’s her fault!
Sakura: No!
Lain: Let the God take her instead!
Yomi: Hold on...
This time, Sakura lashes out at Lain.
Sakura: Well, if you hadn’t killed him way back when!
Lain: But I had to...
Sakura: You were glad to, can’t you try again?
Lain: No, I did it to save Alice!
Takato: Well, it’s her fault then!
Sakura: Yeah, and why’d you seek him out in the third place?!
Lain: Oh yes, well-
Lain turns to Takato and points at him.
Lain: He went and told me to.
Takato: I told you to?
Lain: You told me to,
You acted really cold and you told me!
Takato (over): ME?
Lain shoves Takato. Takato shoves her back.
Takato: No I didn’t!
Yomi, Sakura, and Lain point at Takato angrily.
Yomi, Sakura, Lain: So it’s YOUR fault!
Takato: Wait a minute!!
Sakura: (to Takato) If you hadn’t told her to!
Yomi: (to Lain) If you had tried another way,
The demon wouldn’t be here in the first place!
Takato (over): (to Sakura) Well, if you hadn’t left the Navi there,
In the first place--!
It was your fault!
Sakura points to Jinnai, who has been quietly watching the debacle.
Sakura: Didn’t he try to hurt you in the first place?
They all advance on Jinnai.
Lain (over): Yes, if you hadn’t cursed them in the first place.
Takato, Yomi (over): Yeah, you hurt the store in the first place!
Lain: It’s your fault!
Yomi, Lain, Sakura, Takato: You’re the one to blame!
You’re the villain guy!
It’s your fault!
Jinnai laughs at the concept.
Jinnai: To be concluded.
To be all done.
To be concluded.
Hope you all had such- fun!
Made a silly deal? Killed a nasty god? Beat a daunting chore?
Did you?
Had to save the friends. Had to save the store.
Had to save the world, did it once before,
But it doesn’t matter anymore.
Since it’s concluded!
Since it’s all gone.
While you’re dazed and deluded,
Seems your thinking’s all wrong.
This guy’s after Lain.
So you all complain.
You can’t ever do what he wants.
Jinnai makes a move for Lain, but she remains safe behind Sakura, Yomi, and Takato.
Jinnai: No. No, what’s more important is to do what’s good.
Who stands up for good?
That means you’ve got fingers to point- who isn’t good?
You've understood that I’m not good.
Jinnai makes another move for Lain.
Jinnai: But goodbye to Lain!
Sakura, Takato: No!
Jinnai: Oh.
You are good.
You’re so good, you’re so wrong,
But you’re good.
Won’t pretend that I’m good,
But I’m right!
But I’m bad!
And you’re not!
I am mad, I’m the villainous foe.
So I’m bad.
You’re as good as they go,
But you’re losing.
And the one way to win,
You’re refusing!
So the end will begin.
Now it’s concluded.
So say goodnight.
Ending theme may be muted-
Since you cannot hear right!
What, you want to fight?
Go ahead and fight!
Fighting solves the problems, you see!
Battle to the end!
Trust in all your friends!
How can you defend,
Living in pretend,
If you’re busy blaming guys like me.
It’s all concluded.
It’s all contrived.
Now, before we’re all booted,
We could try staying alive.
But you can stay and fight.
You can try to stop all the pain.
You don’t know what’s right.
Valuing the world less than Lain.
I’ll be out of state!
Since you irritate,
I’ll let all of you meet your fate!
If your whole group is wrong,
Then I do not belong!
With you all!
As you stall!
And you fall!
Jinnai storms off angrily, leaving the four to doubt themselves.
Lain: (quiet) Maybe I shouldn’t have
discovered myself.
Sakura: (quiet) Maybe I shouldn’t have opened that book.
Takato: (quiet) Maybe I shouldn’t have tamed a Digimon.
Yomi begins to walk away bitterly.
Yomi: Guess not.
Takato: Where are you going?
Yomi: I’m leaving.
Sakura: But we have to stay together. It’s the only way.
Yomi: It doesn’t matter anymore. Without my father, there’s no reason to stay
here. Let him destroy the city. I don't care.
Takato: There has to be a way to stop him! Lain did it before and if we team up
we can do it again!
Yomi: But what can I do?!
Yomi turns back around, sadly.
Yomi: Chiharu was right. I’m not a Cardcaptor. I’m not a digital angel. Or a
digital savior. I’m just a scared girl who lost her daddy. Even if you did
combine all your powers to stop it, it wouldn’t matter if I was here or not. And
I don’t want to be here any more.
Despite the protests of the other three, Yomi runs off, leaving them alone in
the park.
