 -2 Tou      What I was afraid of...  That damned bear has already
             entered Nanban...

4-1 Ryou     !!

 -2 Kou      What's wrong, Ryou?  You stopped dead in your tracks.
             Come on, let's hurry back.

 -3 Ryou     Kou... I scent a trespasser.

    Kou      What!?

             The smell comes with the wind.

             and kill that Byakko!

    Kou      [Pad pad] Dark probably already knows about this.  We
             should NOT leave this to an incompetent.  Let's go!!
