It has already been days since Remy's death… But as if that wasn't bad enough… A few days ago, the message came from the hospital… Wendy, Remy's sister… is dead.
Sophie: "...Hahhh…"
Fiona: "(Silent)…"
Fiona stood there with wide, shocked eyes in front of her corpse.
Sophie: "...Hahh...Fiona…"
She stroked her shoulder.
Fiona: "...(Silent)…...Hahhhh…"
Sophie: "You did your best....I did too….there was nothing more we could do."
Rosalie: "Hahh...Should I give you permission to visit her grave too?"
Sophie: "Hmm."
Fiona: "...No….Not necessary….I want...to go back to work."
She stood up.
Sophie: "Fiona, you're still on vacation."
Fiona: "I...have to...work…"
Sophie: "Huh?"
She walked a few steps… Marcus was standing in front of her… with flowers.
Marcus: "Ugh…"
Fiona: "...(Silent)..."
She walked past him without saying anything.
Fiona: "...Hhh…"
Sophie: "...Fiona...you haven't slept…"
She ran after her.
Sophie: "Fiona..ughuhh!"
Fiona's eyes… had a lot of blood coming from them.
Sophie: "That… doesn't look good..."
Marcus: "Ugh…"
Fiona: "...What?"
Sophie: "Fiona, your eyes...they're bleeding...you're crying blood…"
Fiona: "Hmm."
Marcus: "Fuck… Has...she taken something?"
Rosalie: "No….Her grandmother had the same problem...Because of a lot of stress and trauma….blood comes out of her eyes...but…..that's really a lot..Sophie..take her to a doctor quickly..Go…"
Sophie: "Come with me….Fiona..please…"
Fiona: "….Mm."
Sophie: "Please….I'm begging you…"
Fiona: "Mm...okay…"
Sophie: "Hahh...thank you...Come with me."
She took her hand… Fiona was so shocked… that her mouth was slightly open and she barely blinked.
Marcus: "Ugh..."
Rosalie: "Marcus..it's not your fault.."
Marcus: "….Damn it, that girl died because of me."
He wanted to throw the flowers away...but he didn't.
Marcus: "Haaahhhh….Damn it."
He walked away.
Rosalie: "Hahh...This guy…"
(A few minutes later)
Sophie: "And…Doctor?"
Doctor: "...It's a state of shock….Too much work...barely any sleep...and crying often…"
Sophie: "Will she be okay?"
Doctor: "I don't know exactly...Give her these sleeping pills…...They should make her sleep..she must not have any coffee or those kinds of drinks with caffeine…"
Sophie: "Okay."
Doctor: "Does she drink?"
Sophie: "No..don't worry..she normally only drinks sweet fruit drinks or Pepsi...drinks with carbonic acid…"
Doctor: "Good...still, don't give her those drinks either..."
Sophie: "Okay..thank you very much."
She came inside...Fiona was simply lying on the chair...wearing only an undershirt.
Sophie: "Come here….Fiona…"
She helped her stand up...and stroked her shoulder along the way.
Sophie: "Come on..come on."
Fiona: "...How is Wendy?"
Sophie: "What?"
Fiona: "How is she..did we send her the money?"
Sophie: "Fiona...Wendy is..dead."
Fiona: "...I still have to give her the money."
Sophie: "(Sobbing)...Fiona...she's dead..."
Fiona: "...But….the doctors….didn't tell us."
Sophie: "The doctors are the ones who called us."
Fiona: "..Hhh..what am I supposed to tell Remy?"
Sophie: "Ughhhh….Hahhh…...He'll understand..come."
She took her with her.
Sophie: "Get in."
They got in.
Sophie: "Hahh.."
Fiona: "Mm."
Sophie buckled her in...and put the guns away...on the back seat.
Marcus: "...Hey."
Sophie: "Huh?..Marcus..."
Fiona: "Huh?"
Marcus: "Mm."
Fiona: "Marcus?….Have you seen Remy?"
Marcus: "What..but."
Sophie: "Shhhh...she's in shock….Come inside."
She let him in.
Marcus: "What's going on here, Sophie?"
Sophie: "She's in shock...She…probably can't accept it…"
Marcus: "Mmmm…"
Sophie: "Hahh..I have to stay with her now…"
Marcus: "Hmm."
Sophie: "You see...Marcus...You immediately thought of violence….Now we have the bones..and Wendy is dead..the church has put the blame on the bones…"
Marcus: "I'm sorry…"
Sophie: "Stop apologizing….It doesn't change anything....Finally learn that killing isn't always the right thing…"
Marcus: "Mmm."
(A few hours later)
Sophie: "Hmmm...Come here, the food is ready."
Rosika: "Okay."
Sophie: "Thanks for the help, Lina and Rosika."
Rosika: "Sure."
Lina: "Sure…"
They served the food.
Sophie: "Hah."
Rosika: "What about Fiona and Rosalie?"
Sophie: "Rosalie has something to do...and….Fiona is on the bed…"
Lina: "...Is she still a tired person in shock?"
Sophie: "Hahhh..She's tired, but she's not in shock anymore…"
She put the food through the door.
Sophie: "So…."
(A few hours later)
Sophie: "Hahh...Oh dear…"
Rosika: "Hmm…..Rosalie doesn't take care of her hair either."
Sophie combed Fiona's hair….while she was still...just sitting there.
Sophie: "...Hmm…..Ohh..sorry...Fiona..did that hurt?"
Fiona: "…..No…"
Sophie: "Sure?"
Fiona: "Mhm."
Sophie: "..Okay…"
(A few hours later)
Sophie: "(Snoring)….Mmmm….No...Meliodas...Not again, please….I don't want...to get pregnant...(Snoring)"
Rosika: "She's still having the same dream she's had for years."
Lina: "Hehe."
Violet: "Hmmm."
Lina: "Hmm?"
Sophie: "(Snoring)."
Rosika: "...It's okay..I'll sleep next to Fiona."
Sophie: "Mmm."
Lina: "Okay."
Violet: "Okay."
They fell asleep.
Sophie: "(Snoring).."
Lina: "(Zzz)"
Siegfried: "(Snoring)..."
Rosika: "Hmm."
She stroked Fiona while she slept… She hugged her tightly...Fiona slept like a child…
Rosika: "Mmm…...Well….it's okay..like this…"
Violet: "..Hahh….Fiona was always a girl who liked having something to hug...either a doll...or Cossette or Melina..hehe….Like a child…"
Rosika: "Hehe…..It's okay..I think...it's okay..because she's also just a woman...with...trauma….even though she often seems cold…"
Violet: "Maybe."
Fiona: "(Cough)...(Cough).."
Rosika: "Shhhh..."
(A few hours later)
Violet: "(Snoring).."
Rosika: "Hhh."
While they were sleeping...Fiona stood up.
Fiona: "Huh?…."
She saw someone...It was..Remy.
Fiona: "Remy?"
She stood up and followed him.
Fiona: "Remy..."
She followed him.
Fiona: "Remy.....Remy.....Remy...wait...please."
Remy: "Hehe...Fiona."
He smiled….He did nothing...but suddenly stretched out his hands as if for a hug.
Fiona: "Huh."
Remy: "Come here….Come here….Come on."
Fiona: "Huh."
Marcus: "Fiona!!"
He held her hand.
Marcus: "Hahh..Damn it…..That's a deep well, Fiona...do you want to catch a cold?"
Fiona: "Huh…."
Marcus: "Hey…..Hey.."
He turned her around.
Marcus: "Fiona."
Fiona: "Marcus..."
Marcus: "Hahhh…"
Fiona: "...What happened..where am I?"
Marcus: "You're...in the ….street….Luckily everyone is asleep....Hey...Are you okay?"
Fiona: "...I..saw..Remy…"
Marcus: "What?"
Fiona: "I saw Remy."
Marcus: "...Oh…..Okay...…"
Fiona: "..Where is he?"
Marcus: "...Remy...is...gone...Fiona.."
Fiona: "..Did he leave me behind again?"
Marcus: "Ugh..No...I...I killed him."
Fiona: "Ugh…...Right…..yes….he's dead…..Remy is dead…"
Marcus: "...Mmmm…."
Fiona: "…...Hmm…."
Marcus: "...Fiona….I'm...sorry…...but...I didn't know he had a sister…...I'm sorry."
Fiona: "Hmm…"
Marcus: "...I'm really...sorry…"
He wiped her face…..then he began to cry.
Marcus: "….I'm sorry…"
Fiona: "Marcus...you...you're crying…"
Marcus: ".....I'm sorry...really...I didn't know he had a sister...I didn't know that you were...in love with him...Ghhh..."
For the first time...Marcus cried in front of Fiona or anyone.
Marcus: "...Mmm."
Fiona...hugged him.
Marcus: "Huh.."
Fiona: "...No..I'm sorry too….You didn't know, it's okay…"
Marcus: "Mmm..."
He cried a little longer.
Marcus: "Mmm."
Fiona: "...Remy….brought this upon himself….If there's someone who wanted it this way, then it was him..."
Marcus: "….Mmmm…"
Fiona: "...It's okay...I'm sorry...that...I yelled at you."
Marcus: "No….He had a sister...and now she died because of me...Now I understand...why Sophie said killing isn't always the right thing…..because other people can also be...destroyed because of it...His sister died…...because of me....Remy's sister was innocent."
Fiona: "He forgot his sister...he left her behind….he was …..he was a person...who only thought about being free...even if he hurt others while doing it….It's not your fault…"
Marcus: "..Mmm."
She hugged him tighter.
Fiona: "….Mmm….but….I loved him…"
Marcus: "Mmm..."
Fiona: "Maybe…..I should thank you...because...Remy still...hadn't really hurt anyone..maybe if he had stayed longer...he would have killed someone..."
Marcus: "...What..but what if he had gone down the right path in the future….what if?"
Fiona: "….Then we have to ask the same question for everyone…"
Marcus: "Because of me...Zantanel...destroyed an entire city..."
Fiona: "Hmm."
Marcus: "She cried.....I was...the one who took her last gift away….She has already had so much taken from her….She would never have gone down this path...if someone had cared for her...Remy cared about her…..and...we took him away from her….."
Sophie: "..Marcus?"
Sophie was there too...she was carrying an umbrella.
Sophie: "Oh dear…...I came because I thought I had to take care of Fiona..but apparently I have to take care of both of you….or you…."
Marcus: "Sophie..?"
He stood up.
Sophie: "Oh?"
He wiped away the tears.
Marcus: "Ugh...damn it…"
Sophie: "Hehehe…..What do I see here..Marcus-little has tears?...Nooooh..how cute...."
Marcus: "Hey….That's really unfair."
She hugged him.
Sophie: "….Marcus….I'm sorry….It wasn't your fault...Remy chose his own path….We can't tear you apart over this now."
Fiona: "Yes."
She rubbed her cheek against him, and Sophie did too.
Sophie: "Mmm...Say….doesn't this look a little strange?"
Fiona: "It looks like Marcus doesn't see it that way..Marcus?...Marcus?"
Sophie: "Huh?"
His head and face were completely red..steam was coming out.
(Tschut!)
Sophie: "Oh."
Fiona: "Woww."
Marcus: "...Mmmm…"
Sophie: "Oh..are you...nervous?"
Marcus: "What am I supposed to do when two beautiful women hug me, huh?"
Sophie: "Beautiful...Uh..(Turns red)…"
Fiona: "Hmm?"
Sophie: "Mmm..."
Marcus: "(Cough)....Does...that mean you're not angry with me?"
Sophie: "Well….What bothers me is that you did this alone…..That's not okay."
Fiona: "Yes...Besides...you're probably going to get in trouble."
Sophie: "True, because of this...an entire...city was destroyed."
Marcus: "I will take responsibility."
Sophie: "I'll come with you...to the courtroom…."
Fiona: "Me too."
Sophie: "Good...when is it?"
Marcus: "Tomorrow."
Sophie: "Tomorrow already?"
Fiona: "Oh..where?"
Marcus: "In….Villicia..."
Sophie: "Oh..good..that means we can still make it in time."
Marcus: "Mhm."
Fiona: "Good…"
Marcus: "...Oh..by the way, Sophie, you're a crow again...By the way...Dante….is dead."
Sophie: "What?"
Fiona: "Huh?"
Sophie: "Why?"
Marcus: "Minerv found out quite a few things about him, so she killed him and his wife because of it."
Sophie: "His wife?..Why..she was nice."
Marcus: "I don't know.."
Fiona: "She can't be serious."
Sophie: "Wait a minute...They had a child..right?"
Marcus: "You mean Iris?…..Yes...."
Sophie: "And...what will happen to her?"
Marcus: "…..I've decided to take care of her…"
Sophie: "What..really..but…..are you sure?"
Marcus: "Yes...….You have Oliver...Fiona has Cossette...so...I need one too..hehe..maybe it'll improve my condition."
Sophie: "Children are a blessing…...With their innocence, it is possible."
Fiona: "Yes..Cossette made sure that more other people, whether strangers or people I know, understand.."
Sophie: "Mmm."
Fiona: "I missed her."
Sophie: "You can visit her tomorrow…"
Fiona: "Good idea."
Marcus: "So…...What are we doing now?"
Sophie: "Hmmm...No idea..how about...we buy something from the supermarket…"
Marcus: "Yes."
Fiona: "Oh..I'm hungry."
Sophie: "Oh, me too..I'm ready to eat a whale."
They went to the restaurant…
Sophie: "Hmmm…"
Marcus: "Hmmm."
Fiona: "Hmmmmm."
Sophie: "Dude, what are we supposed to buy?"
Marcus: "How about a sandwich?"
Sophie: "There's mayonnaise in it, I don't really like that…How about that one?"
Marcus: "No..there are pickles in it…"
Fiona: "Hmmm...How about fish?"
Sophie: "No please…...Hmmm…...ohh."
Marcus: "Ohh."
Fiona: "Hmm."
Sophie: "...How about...this...delicious...curry?"
(A few minutes later)
Sophie: "Ahmm….Mmmmmmmm...So delicious."
Marcus: "Mmmhm."
Fiona: "It's been a long time."
Sophie: "Mhm…..And it's been a long time since we've sat like this…"
Marcus: "Mhm…...But to be completely honest..it feels wrong..I'm the only boy here."
Sophie: "Hehehe..Simp."
Fiona: "Hmm."
Marcus: "If you say so...Wait, isn't that Siegfried over there?"
Sophie: "Huh?"
Fiona: "Huh?"
Siegfried was watching them through a newspaper...but because he...wasn't very good at hiding….he forgot to wear his pants.
Marcus: "Um…"
Sophie: "Uh…"
Fiona: "Hahhh."
Sophie: "What are you doing there..you pervert, put some clothes on."
Siegfried: "Ugh..how did you know it was me?"
Sophie: "Because your hair is SO bright red….And besides, the holes in the newspaper are big enough to see you through them."
Marcus: "What are you doing?"
Sophie: "Ohh..is someone jealous?"
Fiona: "If you think we did something with Marcus….No."
Sophie: "Nope…we didn't do anything...We hugged."
Siegfried: "Do I get one too?"
Sophie: "Jump out the window, maybe then a mermaid will hug you."
Marcus: "(Sweating).."
Fiona: "(Sweating)..."
Siegfried: "Hmm…"
Sophie: "Come, just sit down, we still have enough curry."
Siegfried: "If you say so."
(The next day)
Minerv: "...So..Marcus....You know why what happened with the city really isn't a good thing."
Einsenheim: "Mhm."
Marcus: "Yes..I take responsibility."
Minerv: "Since you're already here, esteemed High Officer Einsenheim….can you help decide?"
Einsenheim: "Hmm…"
Marcus: "Hahh."
Sophie: "Marcus can't be blamed...He thought this was how he could weaken Zantanel."
Minerv: "Yes….that may be so, but that wasn't the order..I wanted you to do it differently."
Sophie: "You wanted Fiona to do it."
Minerv: "Me?..No…"
Einsenheim: "I was the one who gave the order…"
Sophie: "What..we don't take orders from you…"
Einsenheim: "Hmph.."
Minerv: "Hahh….Now….What do you think..should we punish Marcus….for this?"
Einsenheim: "Hmm..Marcus did a lot for the Dark Umbrella..it would be unfair...to directly give him such a strong punishment over one mistake, like...a salary reduction…"
Sophie: "You do that anyway."
Fiona: "(Sweating)..wow.."
Sophie: "Oops."
Minerv: "Hahh….What do you think, my crows?"
Colletta: "I'm of the opinion that mistakes happen."
Rio: "Yes...No reason to treat him badly for this now."
Sophie: "Yes."
Fiona: "Mhm..Marcus is a good guy."
Sophie: "Mhm."
Minerv: "Hmmm….Good...then...it's okay..like this…..Now, since we're already here..let's take a short break and then I want to meet someone else, okay."
