Page 7: Ginji
What.. what the heck are these shadows?
Maria
They are the souls of people who die and were thrown forgotten into the catacombs of below Lower town.
The souls of those who died that way are twisted and tortured souls, they are being controlled by a terrible curse..
.. they are your enemies now!
Pg 8 : Ban
Enemies?? You're kidding, they are insubstantial beings. How the heel are we supposed to fight spirits that are already dead.
Ginji
WHAT? Insubstantial spirits that are already dead! How are we supposed to defeat that?
Maria
Hehe..
Learn by doing that is the only way out of this.
Ban
Huh! So you have no responsibility! You witches are still totally useless.
Maria
Ban, actually I see my self as the kindest most helpful of witches.
Ban
Stupid hag...
Ginji
Ban-chan, they are almost on-top of us!
Ban
Dammit! (Ban gets between Ginji and spirits and meets first attack)
Ginji
BAN-Chhhhaaaaaannnnnn
Pg 9 : Ginji
Amazing....
Ban
My body, its almost as if I have wings..
Ginji
Really? Is that why your movements were so amazingly fast?
Ban
Stop being distracted Ginji, our enemies are going to attack again.
Spirits
Ooooo ooooooo
Ginji
Wow I'm fast. Its true, my body is amazingly light. Is this the power given to us by the Voodoo Coffee that maria-san let us drink?
Ban
This is even more powerful then Himiko's acceleration scent.
Ginji, move your lazy ass, there is no reason to hold back now!
Pg 10-11 : Ban
Snake-bite
Ginji
Ahhhhhhh
This is fantastic Ban-chan. I never imagined our bodies could move like this.
Ban
You're right! Now lets show them why we are the invincible GetBackers!!
Pg 12 : Maria
(smiles) Done.
OK!~ ♥
That's just about enough! ♥♥
Ginji
What..err.. what happened..?
Ban
??
I don't know, .. and I don't really can in the end they were too easy to defeat.
Hey you old hag.. what is the big idea, how dare you toy with us?
Maria :
Clever boys, you guessed it. I used the magic contained within the Voodoo Coffee to allow the both of you to experience those visions.
The visions were almost as real as those generated by your Jagan, weren't they Ban?
Ginji
But Maria-san. Before we drank the Voodoo Coffee we smelt the sickening scent of decay and rot. What was that disgusting stench of death?
Maria
Oh that !!
Oh! that was just the ingredients for dinner! Doesn't it look delicious!
Ban (Small print)
I'll pass!! Crazy Hag!
Pg 13 : Maria
Eat Drink and PARRRTYYY!!!
Ginji
(Singing Karaoke) I wanna know what love is, I want you to show me...
Ban
So irritating!!!
Maria
Ban you don't seem to be enjoying your self at all . You're such a sourpuss.
Ban
What is there to enjoy? I don't like being made a fool of.
Maria
I did what I did in the hope that the both of you would understand
Ban
Understand what?
Maria
I hoped that you would understand the devastating power of a curse.
Pg 14: Ban
Huh! Wasn't that scene pretty ordinary? What is so devastating about a vision like that?
Maria
I did not mean that the vision itself was devastating. I was referring to astounding effect of the curse that I placed on the two of you.
Ban
Curse...!
Maria
That's right!
I did not go though all the trouble of mixing Mandrake seed coffee for the two of you, just to let you experience a vision.
In the earlier battle the both of you displayed astounding feats of strength and speed. Ban that was not part of the vision. Rather that wast the same levels of strength and speed that is unlocked by those you are cursed.
Ban
Was that really .. your true intention..
Maria
...
From mow onwards Ban, the battles that you face are not going to be anything like the ones before. An enemy that is weak, once placed under a curse will have access to amazing levels of power and strength. Your battles in no way will be fair fights. With the curses your enemy will become exponentially stronger.
Ban
So whats the problem. We'll just fight them using a curse ourselves, simple isnt it?
Maria
Sure if you are willing to reduce your life span to 1/10th of what it is now, you can get yourself cursed as well.
Pg 15 : Ban
Huh!! So it looks like our enemy is using 'life force' in exchange for power...
Maria
That is exactly right. If the two of you really intend to get back the Himiko in the mirror. The only way to win will be to defeat them in battle, overcome the curse and reflect the curse back on its caster.
Ginji
Ban-chaan come one the next song is a duet, sing with me. The song is from beauty and the beast.
Ban
You're and optimistic idiot aren't you
Maria
Isn't he a cutie
BAN!
Ban
What is it?
Maria
When are you going to share the story of your past with Himiko-chan with your partner, Ginji?
Pg 16 : Maria
When are you going to tell Ginji what happened between you and Himiko chan's brother?
Ban
I'll tell him .. tonight.
Pg 17
Pg 18
Pg 19
Akabane explains to an irritated Himiko that he has asked her to come to that place to witness a show which is part of the Voodoo Child secret.
The show is a fight with the Red Scorpion and who beats him will get to fight In the Underground stadium.
Akabane appears on stage to fight (Himiko never saw him move) and says that he is not a true underground contender as he was too weak and had already been defeated. The guy attacks
Pg 20 Red Scorpion
I will kill you!!!
Clown announcer
Our champion has consumed Voodoo potion. He will utterly destroy the challenger, no doubt the lower tiers will soon be drenched in blood.
Himiko
Voodoo Potion!
Akabane
Looks like this job is very interesting indeed.. however...
Red Scorpion
Hahaha! I will used my poison claw to rip your body to shreds..
Ehhh What?
What happened to my hand?
Akabane
Look up
Red Scorpion
Up?
???...
Waaaaa!! The poison is entering my body , heeellllppp quickly I need the antidote!!
Akabane
Dont worry, you have absolutely no need for the antidote
Red Scorpion
Whhaaa..what.. why?
Akabane
Because you have already.. been sliced into small pieces.
Pg 23
Pg 24-27
Akabane is declared the winner (duh) and asks to have a glimpse of the Queen,, even if only in the screen
Himiko is shocked to see the mirror image of herself on the screen hailed as queen.
Pg 28 Akabane
Your Majesty (a/n **Akabane kneeling is delicious)
I am most delighted to make your acquaintance
Queen
So you are Dr. Jackal, Kuroudo Akabane.
You are indeed as powerful as it is rumored. Thought it was over nmuch too quickly I very much enjoyed the battle.
Akabane
I thank her Majesty for her kind praise.
Queen
Is it your intention to participate in the Final Battle?
Akabane
Most certainly. I will gather allies and form the strongest team to get back her Majesty.
Pg 29
Audience reacts to announcement and attack as all contenders in the battle are natural enemies.
Pg 30-31
Bloody Sword (a/n **kindda says it all)
Pg 32 Himiko
Akabane!!
Akabane
Come Himiko-san we should leave. There is no reason for you to stay in this place any longer.
Himiko
I.. I.. Understand
(Thoughts : Its strange.. why do I feel so comfortable in the middle of this carnage..)
Sfx : Ta-dum ta-dum
Akabane
Himiko-san?
Clown
You have no hope of escape! You will both die by my hand!
Pg 33
Himiko
Sfx : Ta-dum ta-dum
Ta-dum ta-dum
Time to Die...
Pg 34
Akabane kills attacker before Himiko acts
Himiko
Aka.. Akabane...
Akabane
The forbidden scent, the perfume of death.
This perfume distilled from toxic gases that ride from vents in remote Africa, for the sole purpose of bringing death.
One sniff of this perfume will cause a man to bleed from every single orifice in the body, he will be dead in a blink of an eye.. is that not so?
Himiko-san,.. this is not like you.
What is it about today that has made you prepare such a dangerous perfume?
Himiko
This.. this is because..
(Thoughts : Why? What possessed me to prepare a poison like this... )
Pg 35 Akabane
Is it because.. Your birthday is approaching?
Himko
NO! I.. I..
(Thoughts : Who is that? Why am I having such a bad premonition..)
SFX : Zzzzzzz (screen dies)
Pg 36 Akabane
The color of fresh red blood does not suit you at all... Lady Poison
Come let us go..
The stench of decay in this place is unwelcome..
