7 7 301 1 Kamui Capt., look! It's the beach! A beach that's just like the holos! 1
8 8 301 Kamui Yo... Wazzat in the distance? Is that a beach chair? 1
9 9 201 1 500110
10 10 301 1 Ayla A place like this actually exists in the world... 1
11 11 202 1 1
12 12 301 The giant building behind encircles the beach and the sea. A silence takes over.
13 13 301 The slightly salty sea breeze blows the whimsical waves at you, causing droplets to fizzle on your face. It reminds you that this is not a holo-movie in Babylonia, but a place that physically exists.
14 14 301 And the fine sand beneath your feet too, seeps slowly into your tactical boots from your weight, scratching your instep.

16 16 201 2 500166 1 400
17 17 301 1 Liv So this must be what Celica meant by a "vacation"... I think I'm starting to look forward to it. 1
18 18 302 Yeah. 19
19 19 301 Liv The beach and the sea breeze... It does make one want to wind down... 1
20 20 301 Lucia Yawn... 2
21 21 301 Lucia Hnnh, why... do I feel kinda sleepy? 2
22 22 302 Constructs can feel sleepy? 257
23 257 301 Lucia Hm... Probably an automatic response of our human-simulation modules... Commandant, can you help me turn it off? 2
24 23 301 Liv It's a vacation, though, Lucia. Don't you plan on relaxing a little? 1
25 24 202 1 1
26 25 203 2 0.25 0
27 26 204 2 6
28 27 301 Being seen through, Lucia suddenly begins to feel at loss.
29 28 301 Lucia ...I'm just worried that there might be combat, from what happened earlier. 2
30 29 201 2 1031001 1
31 30 401 1 205
32 31 301 RImgBg1Shake 1 Liv You have a point... THERE! 2
33 32 301 While Lucia was talking, Liv has snuck around to the shallow waters behind Lucia and launched a handful of water at her.
34 33 201 2 500166 6
35 34 301 PanelActor1Shake 1 Lucia Ah! Liv, what are you— 2
36 35 203 2 0.25 -400
37 36 201 1 1031001 1 400
38 37 301 1 Liv I'm doing what they call a "water fight" back in the Golden Age. Lucia, join me! 1
39 38 202 1 2 1
40 39 301 The two girls step into the shallows and start splashing water at each other...
41 40 201 1 500026
42 41 301 1 Lee Don't say I didn't warn you two when salt crystallizes in your joints... You'll have to pop them open for maintenance... 1
43 42 302 Lee. 43
44 43 301 Lee ? 1
45 44 302 Take it easy. 45
46 45 301 Lee ...Sigh, suit yourselves. 1
47 46 202 1 1
48 47 301 With Lucia and Liv in the lead, Sophia and Ayla also joins in the water fight.
49 48 301 Karenina was the last to join, but she laid waste to the most targets.
50 49 301 AniZhuanchangBegin ...Nobody had the slightest clue that her bazooka could fire water.
55 54 301 How much time has passed before today...?
56 55 301 You feel like you have been battling for a long, long time.
57 56 301 At that thought, you cannot help but look to the side...
58 57 301 ...And see Kamui trying to use his Big Kamui as a... surfboard?!
59 58 301 Chrome is trying to stop Kamui from doing so, but to little success.
60 59 301 ...And look at Kamui now all drenched. No way Big Kamui can float.
61 60 301 Speaking of, where is Liv and Lucia...?
62 61 201 1 500166
63 62 301 1 Lucia Commandant. 1
64 63 302 ? 95159
65 95159 203 1 0.25 -400
66 6369 201 2 1031001 400
67 64 301 1 Liv You've been lying on the beach for a while. You might catch a cold. 2
68 65 302 I feel pretty okay and comfortable. 66 Why don't you guys join me? 68
69 66 204 2 1
70 3632 70 301 Liv ...The surrounding temperature is indeed quite pleasant. I guess you'll be fine. 2
71 68 204 1 1
72 69 301 Lucia ...Okay, then. 1
73 70 301 You hear sand shuffling—likely Lucia and Liv sitting down beside you.
74 71 301 Lucia Commandant. 1
75 72 302 Yes? 73
76 73 301 Lucia If there comes a day, when the battle against the virus is finally over... 1
77 74 301 Lucia What will become of you, and us? 1
78 75 302 There might be new battles to be fought, still. 76 I guess we'll all return to our daily lives. 83
79 76 204 1 4
80 77 301 Lucia New battles, huh... 1
81 78 301 Liv That honestly makes me a bit mixed up. 2
82 79 301 Lucia But no matter where we are, or who we serve... 1
83 80 301 Lucia I am forever your blade, and this will never change. 1
84 81 301 Liv And we fight... so that there will come a day where no one has to anymore. 2
85 82 300 301 Liv So Commandant, if the day comes when you don't have to battle anymore... How would you like to live? I think Ayla mentioned that you have potential as an artist. 2
86 83 204 1 6
87 84 301 Lucia Will there finally be peace...? I surely hope so. 1
88 85 301 Liv When the virus is gone, along with the threat of the Corrupted... 2
89 86 301 Liv The things mentioned in the database about the Golden Age... Shopping malls, summer breaks, social networks—they will all come back, right? 2
90 87 301 Lucia ...How would you like to live, then, Commandant? 1
91 88 301 Lucia Would you like to study? Or work? If Ayla is right, you might have the potential to be an artist too! 1
92 89 302 What do you think, Lucia? 85256 What do you think, Liv? 44458
93 85256 202 2 1
94 9995 203 1 0.25
95 90 204 1 1
96 91 301 Lucia If Ayla's saying , she must have her reasons. 1
97 92 301 Lucia I'm also looking forward to what you will paint with a brush. 1
98 301 202 1 2 1
99 302 96 201 2 1031001
100 44458 202 1 1
101 5526 203 2 0.25
102 93 204 2 1
103 94 301 Liv I've read that people had to paint in order to capture special moments before holograms and sensory simulations were invented. 2
104 95 96 301 Liv If these paintings were done by Commandant... I'd be looking forward to seeing what they depict. 2
105 300 202 1 1
106 8584 203 2 0.25
107 96 301 1 Liv Speaking of, we never really had the opportunity to think about our "future," didn't we? 2
108 369547 202 2 1
109 52558 201 2 500166
110 96325 301 1 Lucia No, we didn't. I wonder... what will our future look like? 2
111 25875 202 1 2 3 1
112 97 301 The... future?
113 98 301 You have no idea.
114 99 301 At least, your teachers from F.O.S. could not give you any answers about the future.
115 100 301 It has taken so long and so many sacrifices for Babylonia to have a chance to fight back the insurmountable odds.
116 101 301 To obtain the ultimate victory, Babylonia itself and everyone—this generation and beyond—from Babylonia offer themselves as kindling to humanity.
117 102 301 Your sacrifices will only end on the day the Punishing Virus no longer threatens humankind.
118 103 301 No one speaks of what happens afterward. Not your teachers, not the President.
119 104 301 Not to mention that the things Lucia talked about sound more like the past instead of the future—
120 105 301 The unattainable "Golden Age". Whenever you think about it...
191 174 301 Ayla Considering the output of the game industry during the Golden Age... there will be an infinite number of games available to you, Kamui... 1
192 175 201 1 500196
193 176 301 1 Karenina And an infinite number of buildings the Engineering Force has to rebuild, I bet. The future doesn't sound as good all of a sudden. 1
197 180 301 1 Liv What about you, Lee? What would you be doing? 1
198 181 201 1 500026
199 182 301 1 Lee Me? I... never really thought about that. 1
200 183 301 Lee If I have to pick something, I'd be working toward getting Murray away from Babylonia duties and that hazardous line of work... 1
201 184 302 You're a good brother, Lee. 185 But what about you, Lee? 186
202 185 187 301 Lee No, I don't think I'll actually do that. It's Murray's personal wish to work for Babylonia, after all. 1
203 186 301 Lee That's why I said I never thought about it... I'm content to live to see the day the Punishing Virus is gone. 1
204 187 201 1 500166 1
205 188 301 1 Lucia How about we put our heads together and think of something? 1
206 189 301 Lucia Let's do it, Commandant. 1
207 190 302 ...Sounds fun. 191
208 191 201 1 500026
209 192 401 1 205
210 193 301 1 Lee H-hold on... 1
211 194 301 Everyone begins to chime in with what weird jobs from the Golden Age Lee should do...
212 195 201 1 500110
213 196 301 1 Ayla What about a doctor? It fits Lee's characters. 1
214 197 201 1 500026
215 198 301 1 Lee I haven't received enough medical training to be any kind of doctor. 1
216 199 201 1 500155 1 -400
217 200 201 2 1031001 2 400
218 201 301 1 Chrome I'm sure they'll rebuild "med schools" after the Punishing Virus is gone. 1
219 202 301 Liv Perhaps they'll enroll Constructs as students... 2
220 203 201 1 500110 1 -400
221 204 301 1 Ayla Why won't he just "download" the information like how we download battle data...? 1
222 205 301 Liv He can do that, sure, but it sounds nice to learn in a classroom, like how we listen to briefings, doesn't it? 2
223 206 202 1 2 1
224 207 201 1 500026
225 208 301 1 Lee It sounds inefficient. 1
226 209 201 1 500110 1
227 210 301 1 Ayla Does that mean you want to find something similar to what you do now, Lee? 1
228 211 301 Ayla Be a dual gunner like Cassidy Ross in "The Dancing Fishmonger Under the Moon"? 1
229 212 201 1 500026
230 213 301 1 Lee That's not a "legal" career. 1
231 214 301 Lee Once the threat is gone, I'm sure people will start restoring "law" alongside "order." 1
232 215 301 Lee So, count me out of those risky businesses. 1
233 216 302 Then... 217
234 217 302 ...What about an athlete? 218
235 218 301 Lee ... 1
236 219 201 1 500166 1 -400
237 220 201 2 1031001 1 400
238 221 301 1 Lucia ...I've never thought of that, but it sounds like a perfect match, surprisingly... 1
239 222 301 1 Liv Indeed. I've read that swimmers in the past would study fluid mechanics for their performances... 2
240 223 301 Liv It sounds like something Lee would consider. 2
241 224 202 1 2
242 225 201 1 500026
243 226 301 1 Lee ... 1
244 227 301 Suddenly...
245 228 401 2 1513
246 229 201 1 500155 5
247 230 401 1 102
248 231 301 1 Chrome Show yourself! 1
249 232 203 1 0.25 -400
250 233 201 2 500196 400
251 234 301 1 Karenina Stop right there! 2
252 235 401 2 10007501
253 236 301 RImgBg1Shake Almost immediately, Chrome extends his scythe and flings it while Karenina takes out her rocket launcher and bombards the direction where the movement came from.
254 237 302 Line formation! Start searching! 238
255 238 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Everyone immediately forms a line, standing ten meters apart and moving forward, searching.
259 242 301 AniZhuanchangEnd 1 Lee Here, Commandant. 1
260 243 301 You find a large number of disorderly footprints where Lee is pointing. The recesses are also hiding capsules covered in sand.
261 244 401 2 1515
262 245 301 Liv approaches and scans the capsules.
263 246 201 1 1031001
264 247 301 1 Liv ...It's vital fluid, but something's wrong. This kind of vital fluid can only be found in early Constructs built in the Post-Pandemic Age. 1
265 248 301 Liv But it's been injected with many other substances so that it's now half as effective as our current one. 1
266 249 302 A Construct? 250
267 250 301 Liv It seems so. 1
268 251 201 1 500166
269 252 301 1 Lucia We should pursue, Commandant. 1
270 253 301 Friend or foe, you cannot just ignore it.
