Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne Author: Tanemura Arina Translator: Emi-chan Chapter 13 -- Three Pushes Until The Truth (Shinjitsu Made 3 Pushu) Emi chan's note : I don't really understand why Marron speaks in Spanish ^^; Well, she says seņor seņorita matador... and that's Spanish isn't it? One of my Jeanne life time mysteries ^^; *sigh* Oh, and katsu-don is a fried crumbed pork cutlet on top of rice in this fairly large bowl. ('donburi' means bowl so 'don' is the shortened version of 'donburi') note : text in [] are actions demon's voice [no demon shown in this chapter] -------------------------------------------------------- The 15th Century A saint named Jean D'Arc saved France from messages from God. People feared the inhuman power and so, she was put on a trial for being a witch and burned to death on a stake. The one who betrayed her. Was it God or humans....? The pain that grows is left with the soul and the suffering is waiting to be released. Who will be the one who will give her wings....? [Marron stands with a leaf blowing past her] (in bold) My identity has been revealed. Marron : (small print) seņor seņorita matador [Shouts] My transformation was seen by some man I had never even seen before!!! Ohhh my life is over! Even though I ran away like that last night, I'll be caught by the police soon! And then I will be forced to eat katsu-don and with bad luck, that pork will have cholera and I'll die! [A pig is snorting in the background] [Miyako drowns Marron in gymnastic balls] Chiaki : Morning, Marron Minazuki : Good morning Marron san Miyako : Hurry up slow-coach Marron : [thinks] Eh? [Marron flips Miyako's skirt] [Miyako has a pile of gymnastic balls ready to throw at Marron, Chiaki and Minazuki hold her back] Marron : Huh~~~? [thinks] I haven't been found out? Come to think of it, it wasn't on the news or anything.... Minazuki : Oh yes, I asked a friend in the newspaper club to get a photo of Marron san. Chiaki : Show us Minazuki : This is it! It was my very favourite! Chiaki : Hmmmm--- Chiaki : Hmmmm--- [slips photo into his pocket] Minazuki : Don't make it yours!! Miyako : (small print) Chiaki! If you want a photo, I'll give you mine! Marron monologue : Miyako... I'm glad I wasn't found out to Miyako... (flashback) Miyako : I'd cry Marron monologue : You've always cared about me... I didn't know.... But I can't stop being Jeanne. It's something I decided myself. But instead of that.... [Miyako drowns Marron in gymnastic balls again] Marron : What are you doing Miyako : I said hurry up, slow Marron Marron : What--- [Miyako laughs] [Miyako and Marron are laughing] Marron monologue : If you have something to request from me again, tell me straight away. Tell me anything. I'll grant you anything. I'll definitely grant your wish. Marron monologue : Anyway, I have to find that man and I have to forbid him to speak. It might be okay now, but I'll never know when he might tell! [thinks] Or else the katsu-don!! The pig cholera!! Finn was angry at me and [sob] Announcement : And next, we will introduce a new teacher [screams with love hearts] Marron : Wh-what!? Shikaidou : I will be taking History. I am Shikaidou Hijiri. Chiaki : [thinks] What, I'm Miyako : [thinks] What, Chiaki is Miyako and Chiaki : [thinks] A better guy Marron : [shouts] Hey!!!! Him!!!! [There are murmurs and Miyako and Chiaki stare] Girls : Hey Marron! Do you know that teacher!? Girl2 : Can you introduce him to me! Girl3 : You're so lucky! Marron : err... umm.... no.. Marron monologue : What... that person is a teacher? He can't be... Shikaidou : I will be officially teaching as of next year, but as I have just come back from studying abroad and there will be many unfamiliar things so I will be training for a while. Best regards. Marron monologue : Please tell me it's not true---!? [Shikaidou and girls are talking] Girl : Sir, where where you studying abroad? Shikaidou : France Girl2 : Do you have a girlfriend? Shikaidou : Not at the moment. Marron : Excuse me sir [acting girly and sweet] Marron : I have something I'd like to talk to you about, alone [Girls all send kicks to Marron] Marron : What are you doing? Girls : Marron! Even if it is you, we can't allow you to go ahead of us! You have Nagoya kun! Marron : But it's nothing like that ~~~~ Chiaki : Then what is it? Marron : Chi-Chiaki! Chiaki : Do you know him? [Marron feels awkward] Marron : Adios!! Chiaki : Hey wait! Marron monologue : I can't say that my identity was found out! I have to make him keep quiet about it..... (large print) But... Finn : Hallo Marron! Did making him keep quiet, work? Marron : Female high school students are fond of men.... Finn : In other words, their guard is too strict so you haven't gone anywhere near him? Anyjow, Marron, you're just too careless! Transforming on a tree or losing your rosary! Marron : Well, I ended up getting the rosary back and my holy power awoke so it was okay wasn't it? Finn : Marron! Marron : But when my holy power awoke, I didn't need your help to transform, but I tried a number of times after that but I couldn't do it. Finn : Yesterday was probably the impact so you could do it, but you can't suddenly do it straight away. Someday you'll be able to do it on your own. Oh well, Finn is happy! I can stay with you Marron! Marron : I love you heaps Finn chan!! Finn : Finn love Marron heaps too!!! [hugs] Finn : I'll be going to find demons [Marron waves bye to Finn] (flashback) Voice : Let your power awaken, Marron. Let yourself become strong.........Marron.... Marron : [thinks] That gentle light... was it God? Shikaidou : That was a cute angel Marron : [panics] What? [Marron's hand slips off the rail and she is about to fall] [Shikaidou grabs her] [Marron screams and scuttles away quickly] Marron : [thinks] Shikaidou Hijiri! Shikaidou : That was dangerous [smiles] Marron : [thinks] That was a surprise... can he see Finn? (flashback) Shikaidou : That was a cute angel.... Marron : Oh.. I'm so sorry. Your cuff button fell off. Shikaidou : No need to worry. Your body is more important. Marron : [blushes] ..... Shikaidou : Just my luck though. I was looking for you because I had some business with you, Kusakabe Marron san. Marron : What? [thinks] Is he going to threaten me and make me do this and that (Tanemura's not : please insert whatever you might like in 'this and that') Shikaidou : Here you are [hands her a letter] Marron : Aaaah! Hm? Shikaidou : I was asked to give this to you. Marron : A letter? From who.... Shikaidou : From your father. When I was studying historical architecture in France, I met him. When he heard that I was going to teach at Momokuri Gakuen, he said by all means.... There were various reason why he couldn't send it straight to you. Access : Hey Chiaki, let's go home and eat some hotcakes Chiaki : Am I going to make them again? [Chiaki notices something up above] [Marron is smiling very happily with Shikaidou] [Chiaki looks a little annoyed] Marron : Thank you very much Mr Shikaidou Shikaidou : Hijiri is fine Marron : So this was your business... [Thinks] Well, Jeanne's identity hadn't been revealed at all. He probably couldn't see my face because the moonlight was behind me. Marron : Well, I'll be going now [runs] Shikaidou : Don't do too many dangerous things Marron : [thinks] What..? [Shikaidou smiles] Marron : Yes, I'll be careful of railings. Marron : [thinking and humming] He was a really nice person. I feel bad I suspected him. [A class room door opens and a hand grabs her inside] [Marron is slammed against the wall] Chiaki : Who is he? Marron : Chiaki! Chiaki : That new teacher. What does he have to do with you? Marron : [thinks] He's being unusually angry Marron : What do you mean what... We're just normal student and teacher. Chiaki : Then why did you meet alone? Marron : [thinks] He saw us! Marron : What is it Chiaki? Are you jealous? Chiaki : I am. It's bothering me so I'm asking you. Marron : We're not even going out so don't ask me! Chiaki : Then we should go out. I am always looking at Marron with those feelings. [Chiaki kisses Marron's hair, then he tries to kiss Marron] Marron : No! [Marron pushes Chiaki away] Marron : This isn't right. We're really enemies....... we have to distinguish it... [Marron leaves the room] Chiaki : Access! Access : Hm? What Chiaki, you got dumped? Chiaki : Is it true that you're the devil's advocate? (At Marron's house) Marron : Okay, let's go! [Dials phone number, but stops on the eighth number] Marron : Aaaaargh! I can't! I just can't do it!! [Marron lies down on her bed] Content of letter : To Marron I am worried if you are well or not. I will not be able to go home just yet, but take care of your health and be a good girl. Takumi Marron : I thought I could get some courage today because I read father's letter... But today, I dialled up to the eighth number. Marron monologue : It might be because of Chiaki's words.... Every time my loneliness disappears, it turns into courage and I can dial one more number. (flashback) Chiaki : I am always looking at Marron with those feelings..... Marron monologue : To tell the truth, I wanted to be held like that forever.... Then, my heart will be filled with feelings for Chiaki and there would be nowhere for loneliness to fit in... But I can't do that.... Finn : Marron, a job for you! Marron : It's for Finn to become a true angel isn't it? Finn : ? Marron : So, we'll be going again today [The rosary glows] Marron monologue : For the world, for the people and for God Jeanne : Reincarnated by God to seal evil..... Mysterious Thief Jeanne! Sent by God, I have been been called! Miyako : [laughs in contempt] Jeanne you...... [Jeanne jumps on Miyako] Jeanne : Ha ha ha ha ha! Jeanne chan is the best!! Here I come! [She beats up the police men] Police man : She's fired up even more today Police man 2 : She's so cool! [Jeanne runs past running] Jeanne : Check mate! [thinks] Hm? It feels like I'm missing something.. Minazuki : Hm! It's so boring~~ Sinbad isn't here~~~~~ Jeanne : [thinks] That's right! Sinbad isn't here!! Jeanne : Oh well, I'd better run away Miyako : Hey! Wait! [After Jeanne runs off, Miyako grins] Jeanne : Wha--- [huge sweatdrop] What is this~~~~!! [There is a huge dead end wall] Jeanne : [thinks] No wonder Miyako let me go so easily.... She had this trick up her sleeve. Jeanne : Well, I guess I'll have to jump over it. [Jeanne trips on her own ribbon and falls flat on her face] Marron : Oww... what's this... [thinks] I've turned into Marron! When I fell over, I must have tripped over my ribbon! [Lights flash around] Miyako : You can't run now~~~! Marron : [thinks] Oh no! What can I do~~? Access : Oi~~~~ Sinbad~~~ Do your job will ya~~? Sinbad : Shut up! Until you answer my question, I'm on a strike! [Sinbad notices something] [Marron is crawling around] Marron : [thinks] No... I'll be found~~~~ Where are you Finn? [A hand grabs Marron's hand] Marron : Sinba--- [Marron stares] Miyako : There you are Jeanne! [Lights flash on nothing] [There is a sound of a car revving] Sinbad : Marron! [the car drives off] Marron : Oww... Shikaidou : I told you... Don't do dangerous things... Marron : Mr... Hijiri...
