Wake up! GIN!! Gin: ...ow... pg 139 Gin: ... Hijiri: Gin... Thank goodness... Gin: Don't touch me! Hijiri: G... Gin...? pg 140 ?Rin: Hey, what're you doing?! I told you to take Hijiri's body! This isn't what we agreed on, get out of Gin's body! Byouki: SHUT UP! Rin: Kya! ... Gin: HAVEN'T YOU REALIZED? MY GOAL WAS TO OBTAIN THIS BODY FROM THE START. BECAUSE IF I HAVE THE POWERS OF AN OTORA KITSUNE, I HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR. pg 141 Rin: N...No... !! Byouki: WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH THAT JAR? Rin: Seal you again, of course! Byouki: WHAT CAN YOU DO? YOU CAN'T EVEN USE THE KITSUNEBI... pg 142 Byouki: WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO AN OTORA KITSUNE IF THEY WERE HIT WITH THE KITSUNEBI, I WONDER... Hijiri: Stop it, Gin!! Byouki: DON'T GET IN MY WAY! Hijiri ... Gin...stop it...what's wrong with you? ...hey... GIN!! pg 143 Gin: Ow... Byouki: % W-WHAT IS THIS?! MY HEAD... Hijiri: Gin... Gin: % Hijiri. Hijiri: !! Gin: R... Run away...Hijiri...hurry... pg 144 Hijiri: B-But... Gin: I'm begging you, hurry... HURRY!! Hijiri: Rin! Come on! pg 145 Byouki: DAMMIT... IT REALLY IS HARD TO COMPLETELY TAKE OVER AN OTORA KITSUNE'S BODY... SO IF I JUST BREAK THAT BOWL... I SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE THIS BODY COMPLETELY... Rin: H-Hey, Hijiri! How far are we going to go? pg 146 Rin: We've left Gin behind... But at this gate, Gin will- Hijiri: Why? Rin: Huh? Hijiri: Why did this happen?! Please, Rin! Tell me! Please! Rin: ....I-I just... I just thought that if I could get it to posess you, then I could control you... pg 147 Rin: I thought that if I got rid of you... Then maybe Gin would come to me instead... Hijiri: % Rin... Rin: I never thought that Gin would be Byouki's goal. Hijiri: Byouki? Rin: It's a demon. Eighty years ago, the Otora Kitsune sealed away its soul... But I took the ofuda off the bowl, and unsealed it... If this bowl is broken, we won't be able to seal Byouki ever again. Gin will be stuck like that forever... pg 148 Hijiri: % I'll... % ...never see Gin againn...? Hijiri: No... Hijiri: % No... Gin: $ Hijiri! Hijiri: % Gin... % Gin always protected me... Hijiri: ...ime. Rin: What? pg 149 Hijiri: I'm going to save Gin this time. Rin: What do you mean, you'll save him?! If we don't get Byouki out of Gin's body, we can't seal it! Hijiri: But... I believe in Gin. Rin: ... pg 150 Rin: It's true that you might be able to do it. Gin said it. Gin: $ For ten years, ever since I first met Hijiri... $ I've thought only of her... $ And I don't want to marry anyone else but Hijiri... Hijiri: % Gin said... Hijiri: % Gin!! pg 151 Rin: Hijiru! Take the bowl and ofuda, and run away!! Hijiri: Rin... Rin: Hurry! Byouki: IT'S BETTER FOR YOU, IF YOU'D JUST HAND THE BOWL OVER TO ME. Rin: Look out!! Byouki: KITSUNEBI!! Rin: Kyaaa!! pg 152 Hijiri: Rin!! !! Byouki: NOW, GIVE ME THE BOWL. Rin: Hijiri.. Hijiri: % Such cold eyes... % But running away won't save Gin!! Hijiri: No, I'll never give it to you! pg 153 Byouki: THEN I'LL MAKE YOU! Hijiri: Ow... Hijiri: % Gin... % No... % How do I turn him baxk into the real Gin? % How... Hijiri: Gin... Don't lose to that demon... pg 154 Hijiri: Didn't you say that you'd always protect me? I believe in you, Gin...so... Hijiri: % Yeah...when did I realize that I... Hijiri: Because... I love you, Gin... pg 155 Hijiri: Pl...ease... Remem..ber... Byouki: AH... Hijiri: Gin...? Byouki: W-WHAT? MY HAND, MOVING ON ITS OWN... pg 156 Gin: This stupid demon...! I'm gonna protect Hijiri!!

After you were just showing off like that... After I've just realized I love you... It's not fair for you to leave me!! It's NOT FAIR!! Not fair... pg 160 Gin: Lucky.. I got to hear you say that you loved me twice! Hijiri: Gin...? Gin: There's no way I could die and leave someone with as much spiritual power as you have. pg 161 Gin: You're really stupid! Hijiri: Wha... What do you mean, I'm stupid?! I was really worried about you!! Gin: Ow! Hey, aren't you supposed to hold me gentlyu now? (They did that on TV!) Hijiri: % That ring... Gin: $ If you're saved by me from distress three times, you have to $ wear the ring. $ And then we'll be engaged... Hijiri: ... pg 162 Hijiri: You saved me three times, just like YOU PROMISED> Gin: ... Hijiri: !! Gin, why... Gin: The rules don't matter anymore. pg 164 Gin: I'll wait. Just like you believed in me... Someday, I want you to be the one who says we should get married. Hijiri: % That day may not be so far off. % Am I really weird after all? % No... Hijiri: Hey, Gin...do you know what people do to show they love each other here? pg 165 Gin: Wha... Hijiri: % I'm a normal girl in love... Rin: % There they go... Box: And then... pg 166 Hijiri: Gin! Let's go to the movies next Sunday! Gin: Yeah, sure! Rin: YAAAY! I'll come toooo! Hijiri: H-Hey, Rin! Didn't you give up on Gin?! Rin: It's true that I decided to accept you two being together, but... Otora Kitsune can have more than one spouse! I still have a chance! Hijiri: WHAT?! pg 167 Hijiri: Gin~~~! (Where are you going?!) Gin: Oh? I never told you that? Hijiri: YOU DIDN'T!! Hijiri: % But it seems that it'll be a while before we come love-love.. Gin: Hijiri, you're the only one for me!
