Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne Author: Tanemura Arina Translator: Emi-chan Chapter 20 -- Finn * Fish (Finn * Fisshu) Emi chan's note : Oh my golly goshy!!!!! Finn is evil!!! Evil!!!! But I still love Finn chan anyway ^^ Her new look is funky. I think this chapter is shorter than usual or has less speech or something... maybe I'm just imagining it. And it's more centred onto Finn/Access/other angels so you don't really know what Chiaki knew about or what Maron's gonna do next...... can't wait to get my little hands on Oct. Ribon ^^ P.S. The text explaining about the "power", I'm not sure whether it's Finn explaining or just text. P.P.S. The pure angel isn't the right name, I don't think... but I don't really know how else to describe it.... ^^;; note : text in [] are actions flashbacks --------------------------------------------------------------------------- (flashback) Finn : Nice to meet you Marron, I am pure angel Finn Fish. I came here in search of you. I need your help. [Finn transforms into a new look] Marron : Finn... you... you're an evil spirit too? Finn : No, I'm a banished angel. Banished angel Finn Fish. Marron : No... It's not true is it Finn....? Betraying me..... Being the devil's advocate... you're just teasing right? Finn? [Marron reaches out to touch Finn] [Finn blasts Marron away] [Marron screams] Chiaki : Marron! [Finn glares] Finn : Don't touch me. You're annoying. [shouts] I've hated you for a long time Maron!! [grins] Such a pretty face..... [grabs Marron's collar] Marron, I'll tell you what my real job is. "To hurt the reincarnation of Jean D'Arc, Kusakabe Marron." God sealed in a power in life to reincarnate.... Awakening the power of reincarnation and then hurting it and filling the heart with evil... and then that power disappear... Devil-sama used the source of God's power in the human world to rid God's power.... ordering evil spirits to take in the humans' beauty and purity in their hearts. On top of that, to vanquish the evil spirits to turn it into his power. God's power couldn't be taken that easily, but it seemed to increase. Then.... we found out the existence of one "spirit". Text : That "spirit" was God's human experiment and he managed to make one successfully. A "life" that would be able to reincarnate. God divided one third of his power into that life and every time it was reborn, it received a heart filled with beauty and purity and as long as that spirit was there, God could not be destroyed. Straight away, the Devil sent the evil spirits to that spirit..... but the power that the spirit had appeared only when the life was born and while it lived, it was sealed by God. And the evil spirits couldn't take over the body, let alone go anywhere near it because of the pure spirit. Because God's power could not be taken, the Devil killed all the women in frustration. But the women would reincarnate over and over. [images of Mary (I think), Himiko-sama, (someone I can't quite figure out) and Jean D'Arc] Finn : And the last woman Jean D'Arc died.... and 500 years had passed. When that spirit was reborn again, the Devil had devised a plan.... (flashback) Devil : I see.... If God's seal cannot be broken from the outside, we'll dissolve it from the inside... Then if we hurt their heart and take their purity, the power God gave the girl will disappear and reincarnation will be impossible. And God will cease to be. (flashback) Voice : Awaken your power Marron..... Marron : Then... that voice at that time was.... Finn : That's right... It was Devil-sama's voice. And you broke the seal for us. And the last most extreme thing to hurt you was my betrayal. Weren't you happy? When you first knew of my existence, someone that needed you... I was so important I was priceless.... You were always alone... You poor child.. And you didn't even know the whole thing was planned.. Marron : [thinks] What? Chiaki : What do you mean...? Finn : To make the seal protecting the heart easier to break... To let the spirit be taken in easily... Our aim was to let Marron grow as a weak hearted human. Can't you figure it out already? Your parents were manipulated by the Devil's power. For the whole of 17 years!! [image of Marron's parents] [Marron is shocked and starts to cry] Marron : [thinks] Father.... Mother... All because of me.... [flashbacks of her phone and her empty letterbox] [Marron faints] Chiaki : Marron! [Chiaki catches her] Finn : [speaks to Chiaki] So then Devil-sama knew that you were of importance to God but couldn't attack you so he made you vanquish evil spirits. Chiaki : ...you.... [Marron trembles] Finn : But now it's over. Good bye Marron. [Finn runs away] Marron : No... Don't go Finn! Chiaki : Marron!? Marron : Don't go! [Marron runs after Finn] Marron monologue : Is this feeling something that's been created? Marron : No! Finn! Finn!! Marron monologue : Are these tears false too? The pain that pierces my heart now.... the happiness I felt back then.... was it all a lie? [sequence of different flashbacks] (flashbacks) Finn : Don't you have family? Then from today, Finn will be your family. ------- Marron : Sinbad huh.... Finn : But don't worry! I won't let him get anywhere near you Marron! Leave it to me! ------- Finn : Chiaki kun is Sinbad!? I can't believe he deceived you!! I won't forgive him!! ------- Finn : Next time you have anything that makes you sad, tell Finn first okay? Don't leave without saying a word! ------- Marron : I couldn't protect Zen kun... It was my fault... Finn : No it wasn't! Zen kun was smiling. His heart was protected, because you did it Marron. [Marron smiles] ------- Marron : I want to quit being a kaitou.... Finn : What are you saying Marron! The only person who can vanquish evil spirits is you Marron, the reincarnation of Jean D'Arc! [Marron smiles] (end of flashbacks) Marron : [crying] If you were with me, I didn't care if you were an angel or an evil spirit!! Finn!!! [Finn is flying] Voice : Was your identity finally revealed? [Finn pauses] Finn : Noin! Noin : How disappointing. I had tried so hard to try and pull those two apart so Jeanne wouldn't find out about you from Sinbad.... Finn : Shut up! If Devil-sama's orders have been done, don't lurk around me! Noin : Then will you please not loiter around hell? The smell of the heavens soaked into your body bother me. [Finn blushes angrily] [Noin flies/jumps away] Finn monologue : I have no place in the human world or heaven or hell... Finn : Devil-sama... Devil-sama you are the only one... The only one I can trust is your honourable heart... Finn monologue : Since the day I was branded as banished from the heavens...... (This isn't exactly a flashback, but it was what happened in the past) Voice : Finn! [Finn turns around and someone falls on top of her] Finn : Celcia! What's the matter? Celcia : Well, umm... Finn : Oh! Your wings are white... that means... Celcia : I am a pure angel from today! Finn : [hugs Celcia] Oh my gosh~~~~! Congratulations~~~~! Celcia : I am the second after Finn so I'll be allowed down to the human world too~~~~ Voice : Hm! How stupid! [Finn and Celcia both with sweatdrops] [Finn turns to see who it is] [Access is sitting in a tree eating fruits] Finn : Access! You're eating unripe Pell fruits again! If you eat them before they're ripe then the next time we harvest there won't be any good fruits!! It's important for an angel's true character! [Access ignores her and keeps eating] Finn : [says as a matter-of-factly] No wonder you're still a black angel, since you keep doing things like this. Access : Shut up!! Celcia : Finn, Finn, Access is just jealous because he can't go with you to the human world for a visit. [giggles] Finn : What? Then there's already a third pure angel too!? [someone else comes along] An angel : You called me? Finn san? [sparkles and roses behind him] [takes Finn's hands] An angel : I'm so happy I can travel with you to the human world. Our paradise is finally blossoming. Finn : Toki... Access : Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!!!!! Don't touch MY Finn!! You egotistical weirdo!! [Access grabs Finn from Toki] Finn : Finn chan flash! Who's want to be with you, you drop out!! [be-da] [Access is left as a burnt, smouldering pile] Toki : Oh dear... Celcia : It's because you're always picking on her! Text : Finn. Access. Celcia. Toki. The four of them were the best of friends within their class. For the first time, those four would be leading different actions. It was already then that their fate had been chosen. [Angels fly to a huge palace building] Head angel : Pure angel Finn Fish, Celcia Form, Toki Haiyar. Born in the period of "flower". Out of 1200 black angels, these 3 angels have managed to become pure angels of a high standard. I grant them permission to descent into the human world for 3 days and 3 nights. Finn, Celcia and Toki : Thank you! Head angel : But your existence cannot be noticed by humans.... Bask in the sun light and increase your power to as much as you wish. We angels are mysterious spiritual beings who God has shared some of his power to good willed lives of humans who have died... Store your own power and endeavour so that one day you may develop into a "spirit" which will reincarnate. Go safely. Other angels : Wow Finn!! No wonder you're an honored student! Hey Finn, can you bring back flowers from the human world? Finn : Sorry, I can't bring back anything from the human world. It's a rule. [Access watches from behind the corner] [Finn is running] Voice : Finn! Finn : Access... [Access is blushing] Access : Umm.. [mumbles] Come back soon...please.. Finn : Hmmm? What? I can't hear you. Access : Come back soon all right? Finn : [giggles] I don't know... what should I do? Access : And when you get back, I've got something to say to you! Will you listen to it? Finn : If I feel like it [Access is shocked and depressed] Finn : [giggles] I'm kidding. Sure I'll listen to you! [Access blushes] [Finn runs off] (Back in Marron's apartment) [Chiaki is hugging Marron and sitting on the bed with Access floating in front of them] Access : But.... Finn never came back... Chiaki : Why...? Access : Because she did something that was the worst taboo in heaven. She killed a human. END OF CHAPTER 20
