-pg19- Tale #9 300 Image Capacity. -pg20- Waiting for the car to come -pg21- Alpha Oh yeah, this thing... Kokone Ah! You brought it. Alpha Mm. Now...do you know how to work it ? Kokone Yeah... This type usually... -pg22- Kokone I think you take this caramelish thing... You put it in this panel on the back... Put the cover back... You look through this, and push here...' This piece can be used 300 times. Alpha Hmmmmm.... -pg23- Alpha This...thing's got an eye. Kokone I think it's made of the same stuff they used for our eyes. Alpha I thought this was an eyeball... -pg24- Kokone Is there a cord ? Alpha Oh! This ? Kokone Yeah. The thin end goes in the hole on the cover... Alpha It's in... Kokone Put the shutter button in your mouth... -pg25- Kokone And you can see the picture as the camera does. Alpha Eek! Kokone This first time's like that; but then you get used to seeing from the camera's point of view... Alpha This feels weird... Kokone And if you close your eyes, you can see yourself...neat, isn't it ? Alpha 'Kay... -pg26- Alpha Say cheese! Mmhmm... I'm getting the hang of it. If I use the camera too much... I'll use up 300 of these far too fast. -pg27- Alpha It doesn't seem to be coming... Kokone It's always like this. But we're a bit early, yet. -pg28- Alpha Musashino's a long way... Kokone It's not that bad! Alpha 'Kokone-san' -- it's a cute name! Kokone A ha ha. For some reason...When I first went to the training grounds... I seem to have given myself that name... But I don't remember why... Alpha Ahhh... -pg29- Kokone Alpha-san...um... It's a proper noun, isn't it ? Alpha 'Alpha' is a proper noun. It seems Alpha types like me are kind of rare. So I was just called Alpha. I guess that's how I got my name... It just sorta stuck. Kokone Ahh, I see. -pg30- The car came at last. I think we'll meet again. But it's still sort of sad to see a friend head off for a country you don't even know. -pg31- Musashino was once known as the Capital of the East It's right next to us, really, but it feels so very far away. -pg32- Ojisan Z... Zzzzzz.... -pg33- Ojisan Gas ? Alpha Mm-mm. Sorry I woke you. Ojisan Oh, did that kid ever find you ? She asked the way this morning. And she looked a bit like you... Didn't expect that. Alpha She did ? Ojisan Mm. -pg34- Alpha Mm. She's my sister. In my life, there is nothing I don't want to photograph... I found out that 300 can never be enough. Tale 9: Closing
