Zeus Volume 1 Chapter One: Fly Me To The Moon, Part One Translated by Tae-chan --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please, so that the lord’s earth is consecrated, The heaven above’s offering and tears The abyss lying below’s offering. The reverred offering born by the sun The reverred offering caused by the moon The offering born of ancient time’s great deal The reverred offering of the eternal hill The reverred offering full of the earth (33rd section of Deuteronomy) page 7 1 Kira: N...No... 2 Man: Shut up. It will feel good soon. Kira: It hurts... 3 Man: You’re the Remora species put aside in reserve. If I can merge with you it will make even the earth move. Kira: % What is he doing? I don’t understand why! 4 Kira: % This guy is strange...! 5 Kira: % --- why must I suffer like this---!? Kira: Stop! No! Man: You’re still an unspecialized adamu-kadomon. I will make you bloom! Page 8-9 7 Man: Y... you...! 8 Man: Waaaaa Page 11 1 Kira: % This is --- fate. 2 Kira: % Gold eyes reflecting in the light, a fire burning, and Page 12 2 Kira: % a calling mark on the hand is indicating that I know this man. 3 Kira: % these --- powerful arms too ---- I know them all. They are my fate ---- Page 13 2 $ Kira: % It’s hot --- it’s hot, I was crying. 3 $ kira: % In the woody smell, the smell of blood was rising. 4 $ Kira: % There were many corpses --- in there --- there were arms that were holding me tightly --- with strength... page 14 1 $ Kira: % I know that he was crying too, the boy with golden eyes. He kept running without looking back. 2 $ Kira: % I can’t return to those happy days. A painful thought ---- 3 $ Kira: % Aaah, don’t pull us apart! Ramora Saramanda --- The sun’s incarnation. I was led by those arms. $ Kira: Please don’t leave me! Page 15 1 Kira: % Don’t leave me alone... 3 Kira: % The night that I had this dream, my heart hurt and ---- I couldn’t stop my tears... 5 Kira: Yuika!? Page 16 1 Yuika: Hey you --- When your feelings are confused I suffer the indirect blow even from here, Kira. My bedside book fell down. 2 Kira: Anyway any book of Yuika’s is probably manga or paperback. (It isn’t important, right?) (Don’t get mad). Yuika: I’ve said before, even I occasionally read hard cover books. (Here, see for yourself.) 3 Kira: Oro? 4 Kira: Ah 5 Kira: I’m sorry. It was unstable emotion that did it. Page 17 1 Yuika: --- You had that dream again? 3 Yuika: Hey, can I come over? 4 Kira: Yeah, but be careful. The wood’s a little rotten there. Yuik: I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m used to this. 5 Yuika: 6 Kira: Yuika! Page 19 1 Kira: (God, you take a lot of looking after) Yuika: Thankyou Kira. (I thought I was gonna die.) 2 Yuika: But your "power" has grown all the more powerful, hasn’t it. 3 Yuika: This mark on the palm of your hand is a lot clearer. That’s probably got something to do with it. 4 Yuika: It looks like the symbol for Mercury. It’s the symbol for the goddess Isis. Kira: Isis? 5 Yuika: You don’t know her? She has been likened to the bountiful big mother god, goddess of the moon Diana. It’s kinda strange, but it’s like you are the reincarnation of a god (or something). Page 20 1 Kira: Cut it out. I’m an ordinary human. 2 Yuika: % --- Kira has been worrying about it... 3 Yuika: % I wanted to comfort him, but I wonder if it made him more depressed... Yuika: I’m sorry. 4 Yuika: Whatever power you have, Kira is Kira. It’s got nothing to do with who you are. Page 21 1 Kira: Yuika. Yuika: Yeah? 2 Kira: I like bigger one’s than those. Yuika: Aaaaaaugh! 3 Yuika: What the hell are you doing, you lecherous boy! Kira: (Argh~!) 4 Yuika: % I want to protect this youngster who can get hurt so easily. Like a mother who protects her scared child from a mysterious shadow ---- Y’know, this isn’t the same as "love" or anything. Page 22 1 Kira’s mom: As usual, I apologize for that boy sleeping in late. Yuika: (It’s okay, he’s always like that ^^;) Kira’s mom: Kira ---- come out and greet Yuika-chan. 2 Kira’s mom: ---- Yuika-chan. 3 Kira’s mom: Do you think Kira’s changed lately? Yuika: Huh? 4 Kira’s mom: Ah... sorry. It’s nothing. 5 Yuika: See ya later! 6 Kira’s dad: The child has been feeling sick or something? Kira’s mom: No --- that’s not it. That’s not it.... Page 23 Kira’s mom: That would just be a mother’s fussing. But I... I’m scared of that child. Even though we don’t have ties of blood, when we took him in when he was small, I thought that we could surely become more than his real parents... but what is that child’s strange power...!? As he grows, it continues to become bigger. When I think about it, we have absolutely no data on the child before he came here when he was two years old ---- it’s unnatural. I suppose I shouldn’t think that, but... But I wonder if we didn’t take in some sort of misfortunate thing. Page 24 1 Kira: --- In my dream, 2 Kira: The person in my dream, I wonder how I can find him? 3 Yuika: The golden eyed boy who always appears in your dream? 2 Kira: Yeah... and when I do, a bit ---- I was thinking that maybe he would know... just what I am... 5 Yuika: % His mother’s attitude before was plain. (This is a bit of a problem.) 6 Kira: I have a feeling that he does exist. Kira: % Probably he’s my only blood relative.. ---- therefore my heart hurts so much --- it’s being tightened. Page 25 1 Take me to the moon... and lets have fun surrounded by the stars. 2 Suited Man: He got away! Over there. 3 Suited Man: Don’t wound him, he’s an important experiment sample. Use an anaesthesia gun! 6 Suited Man: Damn. Page 26 I want you to show me what sort of a thing Spring is. Above Jupiter and Mars... 2 Man: Damn. He got away! 3 Sui: Individual Recognition Number S-19966 Man: Sui-sama! 4 Sui: No matter where he runs to, the buried transmission device will tell us where he is. There’s no need to get flustered. After you’ve tracked him down, hunt him. Page 27 1 Sui: But it is of great interest, the facts that he hacked from the SSRC’s computer. And some information or other that he pulled out...! 2 Sui: Something important enough to justify the risk he bore---! Page 28 2 Runaway: % Finally I found him! 3 Runaway: % Remora Saramanda---- If you’re going to reply, hold my hand! If you’re going to reply, beloved, give me a kiss! Page 29 2 Yuika: What are you listening to, Inaba? Even though I’ve been talking to you, you haven’t been paying the slightest bit of attention. Inaba: Yuika. 3 Inaba: "Fly me to the moon." Yuika: Huh? That anime’s ending? Otaku. (arrow: You know it too.) Inaba: Call it a standard number. 4 Yuika: You can see Kira really well from here! Inaba: (So what.) 5 Inaba: The flower bed’s gardening section have been neglecting them and haven’t watered them, so they’ve become all wiltered. Kira said it was pitiful and has been religiously going to pour "energy" into them every day it seems. Page 30 1 Inaba: Look how he’s so attentive to the flower. The satisfaction on his face! 2 Yuika: He’s always been like that ever since we were small hasn’t he. Kira opposing the great earth’s life’s sensation is extraordinary. 3 Yuika: The two of us also took in a part of Kira’s personality as a matter of course. 4 Yuika: % There are also people who don’t really think so. 5 Yuika: % But when you’re a mother, dealing with it is hard. <> Page 31 1 Inaba: But y’know, as the flowers take back life energy, Kira’s face gets paler. Like he’s giving them his own life...! 2 Yuika: You’ve been watching him all the time, haven’t you. Inaba: What’s with you, Yuika! 3 Yuika: Nothing! Inaba, lend me your english grammar notes for 5 secs~~~~ Inaba: You ought to prepare enough ---- you’re always depending on other people. Page 33 1 Basketballer 1: Too much, isn’t it. The female student’s voices are ringing out. Basketballer 2: Man, even though it’s a practice match, how about this mania. It’s cos they don’t see anyone but him. 3 Manager: Here Inaba-kun, a towel. 4 Inaba: Thankyou, manager. 5 Manager: You were wonderful, at the match just now, with your judgement. Even now when I think about that dunk shot I get the shivers. Page 34 1 Manager: I knew it, your character is different from the other boys. Inaba: I don’t really think so. 2 Manager: Hey, wait a moment. I want to talk to you. 3 Manager: Will you go out with me? The other boys in your grade are just brats and not worth my time. But if it was with you, I think it would go well. 6 Yuika: Yahhooo~~~, Inaba~~~! Is basketball over? Page 35 3 Inaba: Sorry, but I’m just a brat too. 4 Manager: Inaba-kun? Page 36 1 Female student: Those 3 really are good friends. They’ve always been together from since before kindergarten. 2 Female student: Hnnn. It sort of seems like outsiders just can’t cut in on their group. But, y’know, they sort of look good together, don’t you think? It’s enviable, but it feels like it can’t be helped. 3 Yuika: Hey Inaba, she’s really glaring at you. (Is it okay?) 4 Inaba: But I’m not interested in her. Encouraging her feelings would be worse, wouldn’t it? Yuika: You’re really a jerk! I’d never wanna fall in love with you. Page 37 1 Kira: Oh I dunno, Inaba is a good guy. I really love him! 2 3 Kira: Huh? Did I say something weird!? Yuika: (That’s a killing phrase.) 4 Inaba: Uh, I’ve got stuff to clear up after basketball. Yuika: We’ll wait so we can return home together. Satisfy my heart with a song 5 Inaba: I got myself a new bike. It’s a GPZ 400F! 6 Inaba: I’ll show it to you afterwards. Later! Kira: (He has money so he can get this sort of stuff). Yuika: (He’s such a spoiled boy.) Page 38 1 Female student: Ah, there you are Yuika ---- I want to get together for our cooking class practice tomorrow. Can you come? Yuika: Oh... okay. 2 Yuika: Sorry! I’ll return in a moment, Kira. Kira: It’s fine. Take care. And let us sing for all eternity. Page 39 1 To you, all of my respect---- And worship I shall consecrate. 2 Iria: Kira!? 3 Inaba: What’s up, Yuika? Yuika: Inaba, it’s terrible! Kira has been...! Page 40 2 Inaba: Shit ---- WAIT YOU ASSHOLE! Page 41 1 Inaba: GIVE KIRA BACK! 2 Kira: Inaba, Yuika...! If you reply, please tell me the truth! Page 42 1 Man: Damn. 3 Man: What the hell are you doing. Stop! You wanna die!? 4 Inaba: Kira------! Page 43 1 Kira: Aaah~ Man: Quit it, why don’t you! 3 Inaba: (It’s smokey) Page 44 1 ---- If you reply... 2 Kira: Yuika! Hanabaaaaaa! Page 45 2 If you reply ----- Say, "I love you." Page 46 2 Kira: -------! 3 Man: Aaaaah! Page 47 1 People: What’s that? What happened!? 2 ---- It’s dark... page 48 1 Yuika: % Hey, Inaba... are we dead? Inaba: % Would I know something like that... 2 Kira: You’re not dead. I won’t let you die. Page 49 1 Inaba: % Kira... 2 Yuika: % It’s Kira isn’t it. 3 Kira: These stones I am holding, they will give the two of you life. 5 Kira: I won’t let you two die. Whatever it takes, I will save you. Page 50-51 1 Kira: Even if I exchange my own life...! 3 Inaba: % Kira...! Inaba: Uu..hh... 4 Doctor: He’s regained consciousness! Inaba’s Mother: He’s awake! 5 Inaba: ? Where am I? Inaba’s Mother: You’re in hospital. You were in an accident. I thought I’d lose years from my life! 6 Yuika’s brother 1: Oi, Yuika! They said you’re not supposed to walk yet. Yuika’s brother 2: (Sis, calm down.) Yuika: Inaba! 7 Inaba: Yuika. Page 52 1 Yuika: Kira is... Kira is... 2 Inaba: % It’s continuing to breathe inside my heart ---- A warm fire, the stone that Kira gave to me... Page 53 Inaba: % It is ---- that stones which were Kira’s life ---- he transferred them to us. Inaba: KIRA! ~*~ End Chapter One Part One.
