Sound Episode - 3 - STAGE 0.522 Song of the Secret Base
текст песни

Suzaku: Kururugi Suzaku is a son of Japan! I'll help the ones I want to help, and do the things I want to do! Why should I need a reason to do any of those!?

Lelouch: (annoyed) He's turned on me instead?

Suzaku: I'll look for her because I want to. Stop me, if you can!

Lelouch: Wait, I'll be the one protecting Nunnally! I won't rely on the help of others -- not that of adults, and not that of the Japanese! No one else--

Suzaku: Shut up!

Lelouch: (shocked)

Suzaku: Don't decide on your own, dumbass! If you think you can do everything by yourself then you're a real stuck up snot!

Lelouch: Having said that, Suzaku disappeared into the depths of the forest. What a selfish, pushy guy... but... for now, I suppose I'm grateful for that...

(Sound of someone walking through bushes)

Lelouch: Nunnally! Where are you-- Answer me! It's me, Lelouch!

Lelouch: I ran through the forest frantically. Nunnally's feet are weak. There's no way she can go very far, but... (surprised) Someone's here! This far deep in the forest...?

(Sound of someone walking through bushes; Lelouch approaches person)

Lelouch: Is that you, Nunnally?

C.C.: You're mistaken.

Lelouch: Eh?

Lelouch: The person there wasn't Nunnally. It was a lady wearing a kimono with sunflower patterns. She had her back to me so I couldn't make out her features, but... she isn't all that old.

Lelouch: Um, did a girl pass through here? She has long chestnut hair... she's crippled... and blind, too... Um, miss?

C.C.: ...She hasn't come this way.

Lelouch: I see. Um, you're not from the Kururugi Shrine, are you?

Lelouch: I've committed to memory all those working at the Kururugi Shrine. What's an outsider doing here, deep in the forest? Picking wild vegetables...? Is she lost? Or could she be... an assassin!?

C.C.: Don't worry, I'm not your enemy.

Lelouch: (surprised)

C.C.: It's just that I was asked... to come and have a look at how you're doing.

Lelouch: How I'm doing...? Just who are you--?

C.C.: It's started to rain.

Lelouch: Rain, at a time like this!? If Nunnally were to get wet... I've got to-- I've got to find Nunnally, quickly!

Lelouch: Miss, I don't have time, so let's not beat around the bush... eh?

Lelouch: The sunflower lady had already disappeared... in that fleeting instant in which I looked up at the rain clouds. Who was she? She said she'd been "asked to", but...

Nunnally: (singing happily)

Lelouch: This voice! Nunnally! Although soft and faint, it's definitely Nunnally's voice! There's no mistaking it! But... whose is the other voice singing along with her? ...Could it be!?

Lelouch: I ran -- upon the ground which had begun to turn into mud, guided by Nunnally's voice...

Nunnally & ??????: (laughter)

Lelouch: Nunnally's... laughing? But she hasn't laughed since mother died, not once... so why...?

Suzaku: Lelouch!

Lelouch: Suzaku!

Lelouch: Suzaku appeared from the ground. To be specific, he appeared from the hole in the ground.

Suzaku: Over here! Nunnally's here as well.

Nunnally: Onii-sama!

Lelouch: Nunnally! Are you unhurt?

Nunnally: I'm alright, Onii-sama.

Lelouch: Nunnally was inside the cellar -- with that Suzaku.

Nunnally: I'm sorry, Onii-sama. It seems that I fainted after falling in here...

Lelouch: You fell into this hole?

Suzaku: It's the secret base I made.

Nunnally: It's wonderful! Supposedly it has food and weapons in it.

Lelouch: Nunnally... you were laughing just now?

Nunnally: Eh? ...Yes.

Lelouch: Why? You never laughed up till now...
