   -2 Lucas   I'd really appreciate it if you'd back up just a little
              more.

   -3 Garman  Ok, ok.  You're in the stronger position, kid.

   -6 Tsuki.  I feel something...  Does this mean the spell has been
              broken?  Answer me.

   -7 Tsuki.  Nayura.

151-1 Neph.   Uhhh, gah...  What the hell happened...

   -3 Neph.   !?

              her away.)

156-1         [Smash]

   -2 Neph.   [Pull] ohhh.....

      Nayu.   Ahahah.  You're supposed to be stronger than this.  You
              can hang on a little longer, I hope.  Let's try one more
              time.

   -3 Tsuki.  Nayura.

   -4 Tsuki.  I ask you to stop this.  It's enough.

      Maha.   Nefu -- sister!

   -5 Nayu.   I don't know you.  Don't interrupt me... or you will

   -6 Nayu.   Die!

   -7 Maha.   Shut u------p!

157-1 Maha.   [Boosh] (German runes for a spell.) ("Wall of Force")

      Maha.   [Zoom] Wah!

   -5         [Thunk]

   -6         [Zip]

   -7 Voice   Maharu      (The voice may be Nephutese.)

      Maha.   Uhh.....

   -8 Voice   Maharu

      Maha.   Th... that sister Nefu?  Sis.....  Sister?

158-1 Voice   They have insulted my sister.  They said horn-people are
              not human, they are monsters.  That's why I attack them.

   -2 Voice   You are a mischevious child.  Maharu.

   -3 Voice   Nayura-chan!

   -4 Nayu.   Hey, you!

   -5 Nayu.   As I said before!  If you interrupt me, you will die!

   -6 Maha.   Too much... too much...

   -7 Nayu.   Ohh...  Looking at you closer, you are one of us.  If so,
              don't oppose me.  Cooperate with me.

159-1 Tsuki.  Nayura -- this is wrong!

   -2 Nayu.   Shut up!

      Tsuki.  [Wham] Shriek!

   -3 Maha.   Tsukijo-sama!

      Nayu.   Heh, to save face for Nayura, I won't kill you.

   -4 Menea   It's all right.

   -6 Menea   Leave this to me.
