Woman: It was opened from the inside! I told her not to open the door, she wouldn't have opened it! Woman: It's true that the golden-haired Princess... sfx: cry Sakura: That wasn't a dream then? -------------------------------------- Page 07 Man: What's that!? sfx: energetic movement -------------------------------------- Page 08 Sakura: Last night, in the snow, I saw a woman with golden hair, wearing a white dress. She walked by with black birds flying around her. Woman: It is the golden-haired Princess who kidnapped my child! People: It's the Pirncess from the Northern Castle! It's the Princess's curse! sfx: crowd noise -------------------------------------- Page 09 Glosam: That's enough! sfx: bam! sfx: intimidating glare Kyle: Is there a child missing again!? Glosam: These people didn't leave the house last night? sfx: running -------------------------------------- Page 10 Kyle: For the convenience of emergency of patients, my room is situated beside the entrance. I would know if anyone goes out at night. Old man: It's no use if we stay here! Come! Let's start searching for the children! sfx: zoro zoro sfx: intimidating glare Fai: (Oh!) Someone is staring at us! Kurogane: They are suspecting us. -------------------------------------- Page 11 Kyle: Come, let's go back. Breakfast is ready. Fai: Is it all right? Kuro-pii has a very unique way of using a fork and knife. Kurogane: Shut up! You don't even know how to use chopsticks. sfx: shriek shriek shriek -------------------------------------- Page 12 Kyle: ...You saw the golden-haired Princess? Sakura: I'm sorry. If only I went to look out... Kyle: You thought you were dreaming then. Seeing a woman dressed in white walking in the snow, of course no one would think it's real. Fai: But the villagers don't think that way~~ sfx: (near Kuro) purupuru; (near Fai) nihya Kyle: To the people in "Spirit", the Legend is real. -------------------------------------- Page 13 Syaoran: You mean it's historical fact? Kyle: In the book on the history of the Country of Jade, there is this following record: "300 yeas ago, there was a Princess named Emeraude. One day, her parents passed away suddenly. Kyle: Then, the children in the town outside the castle walls vanished one by one." Syaoran: Does it say anything about what became of the children? -------------------------------------- Page 14 Kyle: "As though they were dead, no one has returned ever since." Kurogane: It can be interpreted as no one came back alive. -------------------------------------- Page 15 Kyle: The Castle is now in ruin. But what has happened now is too similar to what the History book said. It's no surprise that the villagers believe the Legend has relived itself again... Syaoran: Did any villagers see the golden-haired Princess? Kyle: There is one. Kyle: You are Sakura, correct? You are the first person who saw the Princess. Mr. Glosam will start saying things again. Fai: Guess Sakura-chan is the first and only witness~ Syaoran: May I have a look at that History book? -------------------------------------- Page 16 Fai: Is is for hobby that you want to read about the history of this country? Syaoran: That too, but I just want to confirm something. Fai: This should be the place where the Mayor lives. Fai: Although Mr. Glosam has the book as well, he doesn't look like the type to willingly lend it to us~ sfx: chime Maid: Yes...coming. sfx: door opening Fai: Excuse me~ I was wondering if the Mayor is at home~ Maid: Eh...That... -------------------------------------- Page 17 Mayor: You are the ones at Dr. Kyle's place... Fai: How do you do? Mayor: Twenty-one children missing. sfx: exhalation Fai: Isn't there any clue at all? Mayor: Nothing. This time as well. -------------------------------------- Page 18 Mayor: Several years ago, the weather became very unstable. Our harvest isn't as good as before. Not only that, the children are disappearing even though the adults had warned them. Just like the Legend 300 years ago... Syaoran: when did the children start disappearing? Mayor: About two months ago. A child went to pick some berries and didn't return. Mayor: And then it's either one gone mising, or three children gone missing at the same time. Mayor: The adults already warned them many times not to go out with strangers after dark. -------------------------------------- Page 19 Mayor: But there is nothing strange at all. The children just vanished into thin air. Mayor: This is the book about the History of this country. It has recorded the Legend of Princess Emeraude in detail. I've read it many times, but I couldn't find any clue about the present incident. Mayor: After you are finished with the book, please leave this town immediately. Mayor: Before the inevitable happens. -------------------------------------- Page 20 Syaoran: Thank you. But, there are things we have to do. sfx: clomp clomp -------------------------------------- Page 21 sfx: (above) flipping through a book; (below) clomp clomp Fai: Hyu~~! You don't even need to look forward. fx: hyoi hyoi Note: "Hyuu~~" the sound Fai does when he tries to whistle ^^ Syaoran: It's over there. Kurogane: Don't move around in someone's clothes! Mokona: Kurogane looks bored. That's why I want to scratch your back. He he he! sfx: za -------------------------------------- Pages 22-23 Fai: Is this the Castle of the northern Country? -------------------------------------- Page 24 Fai: But how are we supposed to get across? sfx: rhythmical impacts Mokona: Can Kurogane get across this? Kurogane: It's not possible if you are bringing kids with you. sfx: flipping through a book Syaoran: Looks like this river was already there 300 years ago. Fai: I wonder how they entered the Castle in the past. sfx: flipping through a book Syaoran: I think there used to be a bridge. I can't think of any other way to cross the river. sfx: rhythmical impacts -------------------------------------- Page 25 Fai: So it's not possible to bring children into the Castle. sfx: rhythmical impacts Syaoran: .......... -------------------------------------- Page 26 Fai: No clue at all (We can't even enter the Castle) sfx: clomp clomp Mokona: I can't sense any strong power at all. Fai: No clue on where Sakura-chan's feather might be as well? Sakura: Oh... Fai: Ah~ It's Mr. Glosam. Kurogane: What's he doing here? -------------------------------------- Page 27 Fai: There isn't anything over there. Syaoran: Other than the Castle-? -------------------------------------- Page 28 sfx: clomp clomp Sakura: Still haven't found her? sfx: clomp Kyle: Take care. -------------------------------------- Page 29 Fai: Visiting patients? Kyle: Yes. sfx: running Kyle: That child is a good friend of the missing child. She got quite a shock... Kyle: Did you borrow the book? Syaoran: Yes, I got it from the Mayor. Kyle: Whether it's witnessing the Princess or something else, please tell me all you have learnt. Hopefully, we'll be able to find the children soon. -------------------------------------- Page 30 Fai: What does it say? Syaoran: There is something written about the time when Princess Emeraude ruled the country. Kurogane: I told you not to crawl into my clothes! Mokona: I just want to interact with you Syaoran: 300 years ago, the weather became very unstable. The crops wouldn't grow. People were poor. Fai: Does it say anything about the feather that was brought by the "bird"? sfx: flipping through a book Syaoran: No, but after the sudden death of the King and the Queen, the children outside the Castle started disappearing. Fai: Soes that mean they were really taken away by the Princess? sfx: bafu bafu -------------------------------------- Page 31 Syaoran: I don't know. sfx. slam Syaoran: Because what books say isn't always the truth. -------------------------------------- Page 32 Sakura: ...Snow... Sakura: Although Fai-san said that I must not have seen snow before... -------------------------------------- Page 33 Sakura: I still haven't recovered all my memories yet. So i don't know if this is the first time I've seen snow. Sakura: ...It's cold. sfx: shivering Sakura: Maybe those missing children are suffering from the cold. The only one who saw the Princess is me. Maybe something else will happen as well. Sakura: I must try to stay awake. -------------------------------------- Page 34 sfx: bou sfx: surprise -------------------------------------- Page 35 Sakura: The Golden-haired Princess!! -------------------------------------- Page 36 sfx: yura Sakura: The children are being taken away!!
