Mako: Oi! Shin!
Shinji: Ah! Mako-san! You're here. . .
Mako: What are you hiding there?
Shinji: Ah! That's nothing!
Mako: Don't lie to me! What is that on your hand?
Shinji: I'm telling you! It's nothing!
Mako: Just tell me… You're hurt. What happened?
Shinji: Nothing! I'm fine!
Mako: Tell me!
Shinji: No one must know.
Mako: Just tell me and I'll keep it.
Shinji: No, no, no, Nah.
The emergency bell is ringing. I wonder why.
Mako: Let's go!
Shinji: Yeah.
Villains suddenly came to us.
???: Jiji!
It's Antantaru! How'd he get there?
Shinji: Tan-Tan!
Antantaru: Help!!!
Villain: Shut yer mouth, child! Now tell me where Zoa is!
Shinji: You shouldn't do whatever you want, darling.
Villain: You wanna die, kid?!
Shinji: Things aren't flowing your way.
Villain: What is this?!
As the black chains with purple aura started to strangle the villain, the color of my eyes turned black as my purple color started to make a scar-like structure on my face.
Shinji: I have nothing to say, go away. What more can be said? Even if I get mad, that only hurts my lips.
Villain: Shut up, kid. You don't know anything!
Shinji: You shouldn't just do whatever you want.
Villain: Like you can hurt me- Ah! It hurts!
Shinji: I apologize for giving you the cold shoulder, sweetie...
Mako: Shin!
Shinji: But this is a send-off.
Mako: Shin!
Shinji: Mako…
The villain perished after my chains crushed him. I suddenly fainted. I woke up in the hospital.
Shinji: Ow! My head!
Mako: Shin!
Shinji: Mako… What happened?
Rio: It's the after-effects of using too much of your eloquence, Shinji.
Shinji: What?
Mako: You fainted after the battle.
Antantaru: You were so cool!
Mako: Shut up! You were no help!
Antantaru: I know that!
Shinji: Mako… I… I need to talk to you… In private.
Mako: Oh, okay.
Rio: Let's go kid.
Shinji: Mako, do you promise me you'll never leave me?
Mako: Yeah… Why?
Shinji: I just felt like someday you will leave me…
Mako: I promise I won't.
Shinji: You're the only one I can trust Mako. I've known you for so long.
Mako suddenly hugs me… His chest felt warm just like when I hugged him for the first time. I hear him sigh while hugging me…
Mako: Tell me, what's bugging you?
Shinji: I… Don't know who I am. I don't know the reason for my being.
Mako: Well I have, and it's you.
Shinji: Me? But why me?
Mako: Because you trust me… And I've always liked you.
Shinji: Mako… (I love you)
Mako: Hm?
Mako started to turn red while I looked at him.
Shinji: You heard me…
Mako: (I love you too)
I start to giggle.
Mako: You're very pretty just the way you are…
Shinji: Mako… Maybe you are the reason why I lived, too.
Mako: I'll always protect you.
We didn't notice Antantaru and Rio heard us.
Rio: (Tan-chan)
Antantaru: (Hm?)
Rio: (I see couples)
Antantaru: (Me too, I love it)
Rio: (We better go before they see us)
Antantaru: (Yeah, leggo)
Back with me and Mako...
Shinji: Mako-chan?
Mako: Hm?
Shinji: You've met Kai, right?
Mako: Mhm.
Shinji: Well... She and Chad are doing a playdate now and I don't know what to do about it.
Mako: Eh? I thought she didn't like him.
Shinji: She said she's been hiding it.
Mako: Pfffft... That girl is always something.

Elise: Mako! Jiji!
Mako: Lili...
Shinji: Lili!
Elise: How are you two?
Mako: We--
Shinji: We're fine!
Elise: I missed you Jiji!
Shinji: Yeah, yeah... (Whatever)
Mako: She said she missed you too.
Elise: Really?
Shinji: Yeah...
Elizabeth: Shin!
I hear a little growl and I think it came from Mako.
Elizabeth: I... I'm very sorry, Shinji. If only I realized that you were very nice to me. I would've not bullied you! I regret it.
Shinji: I saw that you only did it to me.
Elizabeth: Yeah...
Shinji: I'll think about it...
Mako: Maybe not.
Elizabeth: Hey! You're still mean as ever!
Mako: Tch... I don't even care.
Elizabeth: And Shinji, I hear a lot from people that you liked to... swear?
Elise: You swear?!
Shinji: I wonder where I got that from.
Elise: Ey! Why you lookin' at me.
I didn't notice that Mako is still growling.
Mako: We'll be late. Let's go!
Shinji: Yeah. See ya!
