kkjch28Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne by: Tanemura Arina translation by: Emi-chan Chapter 28 -- Promise (Yakusoku) Emi chan's note : Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo *sob sob sob* KKJ will end in the next, next issue!!!! *gaaaaahhhhhhh* And I sooooooo need to get that issue *sigh* Well, my KKJ translating days will be over soon.... ^_^;; And no more pretty cover inserts *wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh* Save me!! Save meeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!! *bawls under bed sheets* But this issue's cover made me fall in love with Noin...... Although, I liked Noin before... sorta.. (even though I was burning Shikaidou dolls to warm my hands.. -_-;;) I just can't stay away from evil male characters!!!! *arrrhhh* Even though Noin doesn't end up being too evil.... Nevertheless, I think he's still categorised as an evil character... right? note : text in [] are actions (Cover text) Fin's monologue : If I could see you once again, I would overcome anything. Yes, even falling into the darkness can be a condition of happiness. [Maron stares at Fin] (Flashback) Fin : Nagoya Chiaki has ceased to exist. He's dead. Maron : That's a lie. [Fin falls over with a sweatdrop] Fin : Wha.... Wh..wh... Maron : As if the devil is going to do something that mild. Losing Chiaki is the biggest shock to me. If the devil's aim is to hurt me, then instead of making him disappear, wouldn't it be natural to shooting Chiaki's body right in front of me? Fin : [in shock] Don't say such cruel things in such a calm manner! Maron : Thanks to a series of incidents, instead of becoming weaker, Maron chan's heart is becoming more strong... Fin! Aren't you going too far with your prank jokes? Fin : ...... Maron : Give back Chiaki! [smiles] And for you, I want you to come back.. [Fin stares, then looks a little sad] Fin : It's impossible Maron. I am a banished angel. My life was forgiven because I have to follow devil-sama's orders. As devil-sama orders..... [Fin gets out a sword] Fin : [jumps towards Maron] Kill Kusakabe Maron!! [The sword just misses Maron] Fin : While I'm drawing your attention, devil-sama is gaining more and more of God's power! Maron : !? Fin : If I get hold of your power right now, God can be eliminated! Maron : [thinks] No...!! Voice : Fin! [Fin is startled] Fin : [turning] Acce... ! [Access, Celcia and Toki are behind her] Fin : Celcia... Toki... It can't be... How....? Access : These two were alive! They were frozen into the ice alive! Fin, listen carefully! At that time, Sagami was possessed by an evil spirit! Celcia : Fin, I'm so sorry! Because we were careless, something like that happened.... Toki : Fin san! The one who pushed you into exile from heaven was the devil! But then the devil pretended to save you and got you in his hands! Do you want to be used by such a terrible person!? Fin : [frowns] Don't speak ill of devil-sama!! [Toki, Access and Celcia are taken aback] Fin : I heard about Sagami from devil-sama so I know... I knew and I chose the path of banishment... The person responsible for that incident was me. My heart was disrupted and I couldn't hold back my poer.... It's all my fault. Access : I'm dissappointed in you Fin! [Fin feels slightly hurt] Access : You were the one who vowed the most devotion to God out of any of us and then you go and work for the devil of your own free will! That's the stupidest thing to do as an angel! What does it accomplish, living such a miserable life!! [Fin starts to hurt more and more] Maron : Stop it Access!! [Fin gets her sword] Fin : Hmph... You noisy angel... If you don't understand then.... I shall let you know this feeling!!! [Fin lunges at him with the sword] Celcia : Fin, no! Toki : Fin san! [Maron holds them off with a stern look] [Access is shocked] [There is a loud clang of metal against rock] [Fin has stuck the sword in the rock, right next to Access' head] [Access stares at her] Fin : Access... Have you forgotten..? [Maron watches] Fin : You said... that when I came back, you had something to talk to me about. [Access realises] Fin : I.... promised to listen... That's what I came back for... [Access stares] (flashback) Access : And when you get back, I've got something to say to you! Will you listen to it? Fin : If I feel like it [giggles] I'm kidding. Sure I'll listen to you! Fin : I knew it was bad to take the hand of the devil.... But.. If I could just meet Access once more.... If I could keep my promise... then anything was all right... Monologue : Even if I did the worst thing an angel could do... Even if I threw away my morals or my pride.. Fin : I wanted to see you... [Fin starts to cry] Access : Fin.. Fin : ...nted to... I've loved you for a long time! Maron : [teary] Fin... [Celcia is crying] Fin : But it's okay now.. [Fin takes out the sword from the ground and throws it away] Fin : If I have such a body that can only hurt you... [Fin glows and her clothes disintegrate] Maron : ! Fin : [smiles] I shall follow the regulation given to me. Fin will disappear. Access : ! Fin!! Fin : To be have relationships with an angel is a total betrayal to devil-sama.... Now my last place to belong has gone.... Maron : No! Fin!! [Maron holds her hand out, but as soon as she touches the glowing light, Maron gets blown away] Maron : ...aghh! Fin : [smiles] I'm sorry Maron. It's not true that I hate you. I decided this since the time I got the order to kill you Maron. Because Fin can't do that to you. I love you Maron. Please believe me. [Maron cries] Access : [thinks] Fin will disappear? How can I let that happen!! [Access grabs Fin's sword] Celcia : Access...! Toki : ! [Access cuts off his hair] Access : Fin, I'll give you my power. Even though you're empty, Fin's body is still an angel! I'll fill you up with my power! [Access gives Fin his power and a surge of enegery glows] Fin : I'm no different.... And my symbol of banishment won't disappear... Is it impossible? Access : No! There's lots of way to do it!! [Access grabs Fin and hugs her, his body burning] Fin : Access, no! You'll die if you do that! Access : If Fin's going to be all right, I don't care! I'm sorry I said such horrible things before.. I can tell you the words I promised now... I love you Fin! I love you! [Fin cries] Fin : [thinks] Access.... [A hand is placed on Fin's hair] Fin : [thinks] Toki... Fin : ! Toki : After melting the ice, we drew in a lot of holy power. I don't mind however much you take! Celcia : We returned Natsuki san to the soil! Don't worry! Fin : [thinks] Celcia... Maron : I'll always believe you.. I'll always believe you, so be honest.. Fin : [thinks] Maron... Maron : I love you Fin.. Fin monologue : I want to return... I actually want to return once more... [Fin glows and transforms into a new appearance] Fin monologue : I want to live with the wind --------... Maron : Fin, you're beautiful... Fin : I... Was I able to become a True Angel? Celcia, Toki, Access : It appears so... [The three of them are depressed, and have shrunk in size and have their black wings back] Fin : Aaah!! You've all turned back to Black Angels---!! I'm sorry... Celcia : No, no, Fin [smiles] It's not "sorry"! Fin : [smiles] Thank you Toki : But with just the holy power revived, your appearance can not be changed so that means God helped you! You were forgiven, Fin! Fin : But I... even if God forgave me... I can't go back to the heavens... I have nowhere.. Maron : Fin, your place is right here. [Maron holds her hand out] Maron : Come, Fin Fish. [Fin stares, then becomes teary] [She trembles, then changes back to her normal small angel appearance] Fin : [cries] Maron! Maron : [smiles] Fin! Welcome home! Fin : [cries] I'm sorry! Access : [slightly annoyed] Isn't she a little happier than when she was with me!? Toki : I won't be jealous... I won't... Celcia : Don't.... Don't... [pats Toki on the back] Maron : Fin! Where's Chiaki!? Fin : He got sent to devil-sama's palace. Maron : ! Fin : I'm sorry, I can't get him back with Fin's power. But it's okay, Maron has Fin! [giggles] Maron : Noooo----!! (small print) You're still unfriendly with him! [The ground suddenly starts shaking violently] Maron : ! What!? An earthquake!? Access : No, this shaking... It's when God's power is weakening and can't hold the balance of the earth. Maron : It can't be... Has it gone that far... [thinks] Because I've been so slow!! [Maron gets teary] Maron : [thinks] Don't cry, stupid Maron! Think of something instead of crying!! Miyako and Minazuki kun, Mother and Father are here!! [SD Noin asks "What about me?"] [Suddenly, a light glows at Maron's feet] Maron : What? This is.... [All of them disappear] [They all land in a palace] Maron : Aaaah! Ouch.. Ohhh what is going on..? [Then Maron sees something and is amazed] Maron : !? I can see Earth!? So that means... [Maron turns pale] Riru : [appears] This is the heavens... The place where God has his presence. Welcome, the chosen maiden... Access, Celcia, Toki : Riru sama! Maron : [whispers] Fin, who is it? Fin : Great Angel Riru sama. (small print) A very important person Riru : Come, this way... God awaits you. Oh, Fin, you too. [Fin regains her True Angel appearance] Riru : God has worried greatly over you. He used the last of his little strength to turn you into a True Angel. We shall show him how you look. Fin : Yes.. Maron : [thinks] God.. I wonder what kind of person he is.. I'm so nervous.. [They all follow Riru] Riru : I have brought them. Voice : Over here... [In a large hallway, on a flat-topped pyramid is a large glow of light] Maron : [thinks] What? This is God? [stares] God : Maron... Thank you for coming... It has been the first time meeting you in that form.. But now we can not celebrate our meeting. The power of the devil is stronger than assumed and an unbelievable amount of humans have been posessed and my power has been drawn out. All we have left is the power inside you. However, the devil can not gain your power so easily. That is why I would like to request you to fight the decisive battle. If you refuse, Nagoya Chiaki's life will cease. For both, it is a battle of life and death that we must use all of our power for. Will you fight that battle? V-chan note: God gets his own color. :o) ----- END OF CHAPTER 28 -----
