21 14 301 Before you introduce yourselves, a child in a thick downy jacket, wearing a shiny gadget around his neck, notices you and the others.

24 15 301 1 Rosetta Evan, what was that? 2
25 16 301 Evan Oh, that was Derek's whale song. I recorded it some time ago. Do you like it? 1

29 17 301 1 Diana Anyway, what brings you here? 3
30 18 301 Evan I came with everyone to live here not long ago. Then those monsters attacked... But since you're here, Rosetta, that means we can go home! 1
31 19 301 Rosetta Mh-hm. I'll have you home in no time. 2
32 20 301 Evan Anyway, who's the egghead? 1
33 2000 302 Egghead... 21 We've met before. 22
34 21 301 Diana That's just how the kids call Polar Soldiers. Since it's all round and tubby. 3
35 22 301 Rosetta This is the commandant of Gray Raven. Remember? 2
36 23 301 Evan Oh... Yeah, I remember! 1
37 24 301 Rosetta's reminder seems to have jogged Evan's memory. He immediately tries to shield Rosetta behind him, like a mother hen protecting her chicks.

40 25 301 Evan You're not taking Rosetta away! 1
41 2001 302 ... 26 I won't... 27
42 26 1011 301 Rosetta I'm sorry. Evan is... 2
43 27 1011 301 Evan Hmph, we'll see! 1
44 1011 201 2 500086 -400
45 28 301 1 Fisher Alright, 'right. Business time for the big boys, fellas. Kids, you go back to yer kiddie pile. 2
46 29 301 Evan Hey! Wait! 1
47 1012 202 1
48 30 301 Ignoring Evan's protest, a fisherman promptly lifts Evan and chucks him right onto a giant snow ball made by the children.
49 31 301 Fisher Sorry fellas, these kids are just trouble. 2
50 32 301 A close inspection reveals the fisherman as one you have seen in Murmansk. His expression is much softer now, looking squarely at Rosetta and the other Forest Guards.

54 33 301 1 Diana Rosetta, this is what I was talking about earlier. 1
55 34 301 Rosetta Yeah... Those who accept us may be few, but everything will become better. We're all pointed in the right direction. 2

59 35 301 1 Simon But no matter what, the Forest Guards will still be branded as "sinners"... 2
60 36 301 Atiel Don't salt the wound, Simon! You just never know how to talk! 1
61 37 301 Simon I'm just stating the fact. And stop bumping me with your elbow! 2
62 38 301 Atiel and Simon walk over, but Atiel is somehow limping, as if parts of her frame are malfunctioning.
63 2002 302 Where are you hurt? 39 So we're going on the offense? 40
64 39 41 301 Atiel A joint on my foot is probably just on the fritz... But it should be okay. I can continue to fight. 1
65 40 41 301 Simon Yes, I've scouted the area as well. 2
66 41 301 Simon Anyhow, we'll set out in ten minutes with the remaining Forest Guards and lure the bionics into battle. 2
67 1018 202 1 2
68 1019 201 1 500088 4
69 42 301 1 Diana Gotcha... That should prevent the base from sustaining any collateral damage. 1
70 1020 201 1 500206 400
71 1021 201 2 500201 -400
72 43 301 1 Simon Exactly. The fishermen also wish to join the fray. So we plan on having them protect the rear. 2
73 44 301 Simon Atiel, you and I will protect the rear along with the fishermen. 2
74 520 204 1 5
75 45 301 Atiel Wait, why won't you let me join the frontline, Simon? I'm just a little banged up is all... 1
76 46 301 Simon It's not because of that. You're just needed in the rear... Well... Partly also because of your injuries. After the battle you can return to the base to get fixed up. Then, you can rejoin the front line. 2
77 47 301 Atiel ... 1
78 1022 202 1 2
79 1023 201 1 500088
80 48 301 1 Diana So, we'll be responsible for luring the enemy. Simon and the others will support from the rear, correct? 【kuroname】, you'll have to lead the Forest Guard. 1
81 2003 302 Me? 49 Leave it to me. 50
82 49 1024 301 Diana Yeah. We don't have the modules to connect with you, but we'll be sure to carry out your orders. 1
83 50 1024 301 Diana Glad I can trust you. 1

86 51 301 1 Rosetta So we launch a joint attack like last time, Diana? 2
87 52 301 Diana Yes. Let us blaze across the battlefield like before. 1
88 1026 204 2 14
89 53 301 Rosetta No, I'm afraid I can't anymore, not with my current... 2
