| Narrative: |
Greetings and welcome to the world of "Tsubasa." |
| Author Note: |
Not that it's relevant, but I also have a Chinese dress like this. I haven't worn it anywhere though. I wonder why I bought it... |
| Arrow: |
Anyways. Let's Go
|
| Title: |
Tsubasa wo Motsu Mono (Those With Wings)
|
|
|
| Omake: |
The Omake 1 <- A dry title even for me......
|
| Kotobuki: |
It says that we're taking a break from "Just Here's Talk" this time.
There was only one hole left over too. |
| Shouka: |
That's alright. It doesn't really matter if that sort of thing's there or not. |
| Yan: |
In that case, we can take things easy this time. Take it easy!!
Alright!! |
| Kotobuki: |
Hey don't say such things so happily!! |
| Yan: |
You've got to have courage to be able to state the truth. |
| Kotobuki: |
That's no reason; taking it easy isn't good!! |
| Yan: |
But your partner's already fallen asleep |
|
*SUKA~* Zzz |
| Note: |
Pillow
No intention to do anything
|
| Narrative: |
End of the 22nd century
Earth. |
| Aide: |
It really is Raimon Shiragi, isn't it. |
| Touya: |
...Yes. To find him in a place like this |
| Aide: |
We finally received the data from "F" about that girl he's with. |
| Touya: |
--...
The fact he has a girl with him itself is very intriguing.
Interesting. |
|
*pekii* (snap)
|
| Touya: |
The thief Kotobuki eh...... |
| Kotobuki: |
Raimo~n
The sea |
|
*ZAA...N* (sound of waves) |
| Kotobuki: |
It's the sea |
| Raimon: |
Kotobuki, is this the first time you've seen the sea? |
| Kotobuki: |
To really see it yeah.
Hey, can we go in (the water) |
| Raimon: |
I think it's still contaminated. |
| Kotobuki: |
Contaminated!?
|
| Raimon: |
Meaning it wasn't just the land that withered because of the war. |
|
*ZAA...* (sound of waves) |
| Kotobuki: |
Hmm... |
|
*ZAA...* (sound of waves) |
| Raimon: |
I'm getting hungry.
Let's get something to eat in town. |
| Kotobuki: |
Umm......
But money...
Having you pay for me again... |
| Raimon: |
Are you still saying that?
Give it up. You have no luck with money.
In the past and now.
See It's much easier |
| Kotobuki: |
Well yeah, maybe. |
| Raimon: |
Okay. I've got it.
I just had a good idea. |
| Kotobuki: |
?
A good idea? |
| Raimon: |
Hey, y'know, I'm rather hungry--
We've been roughing it the whole time too--
Won't you take pity and give something--
Like your wallet-- |
| Kotobuki: |
Extortion-!! |
| Narrative: |
There were many wars
|
| Narrative: |
Around the turn of the 22nd century, the Earth and land withered; order was destroyed.
Civilised conveniences were in the control of the militia, the government and high society.
The people lived on the earth immersed in devastation, crime and poverty.
I too, at the time, lived as a thief to survive but I've washed my hands of that.
Now, I'm a wanderer travelling from city to city looking for work. |
| Kotobuki: |
You won't hire me!? |
| Man: |
We don't want women. We want guys. How about it bro' |
| Raimon: |
Eh--
I'm sickly--
And have no strength-
I don't want to move unless it has something to do with Kotobuki- |
| Kotobuki: |
Compared to this guy, I've got a 100x more will to work!!
How about it!! |
| Man: |
So you say, but still |
| Narrative: |
This guy's Raimon Shiragi. Former elite member of the militia
|
| Narrative: |
In this age, high society (those with status) are the only ones who can join the militia.
Raimon was a brilliant young company commander and had a promising future.
Proof of that can be seen by the tattoo that remains on the left side of his chest...... but
He chased after me who didn't have much desire to continue as a thief
And in the end in order for us to be able to be together, he quit the militia.
It's now been 5 months since we started travelling together. |
|
I feel like I want to become someone worthy of being with Raimon. |
|
*UKA* (blushes) |
|
I want to become someone who can be counted on and can protect at any time.
So for starters, I want to find a proper job. |
| Kotobuki: |
...and so
Why can't I find a job--!!
Do you hate me that much work--!!
|
| Raimon: |
Now, now.
Let's relax and eat.
Did you want some "naruto"* |
| Kotobuki: |
You end up treating me afterall |
| Note: |
Not extorted money |
| Arrow: |
Stopped him. |
| Raimon: |
I told you you don't have to get so worked up.
Or better still, you should hurry up
And become my dependent.
Even if we're in poverty, if we combine our strength, extortion would be a cinch. |
| Kotobuki: |
............
That's why
I keep telling you not to steer the conversation to suit yourself!!
I'm seriously worrying over things here. |
|
*GYA-*complaints
O-SU
*BASHIN* (knocks away Raimon's hand) |
| Raimon: |
Ah
Such mean treatment. You don't consider me your lover. |
| Kotobuki: |
Wha
What's that supposed to mean!!
Wh-wh-wh-what's he saying-- |
|
*PETO*
|
| Kotobuki: |
Just why is your hand so unprincipled. |
| Raimon: |
But I want to touch |
|
*hira hira* (wave wave) |
| Raimon: |
Kotobuki can touch me anywhere she likes |
|
*GIRIGIRIGIRIGIRI* (squeeeeeeeeeeeeze) |
| Kotobuki: |
Who'd do that sort of thing!! |
| Raimon: |
Stating things that succinctly is really sad
for me |
| Kotobuki: |
Ah jeez
Dammit everything's this day and age's fault!!
It's poverty's fault!! |
| Raimon: |
It's said that this place was once prosperous long ago.
Also, it's said that there's a place where "Tsubasa" came down somewhere hereabouts. |
| Kotobuki: |
Really......? |
| Narrative: |
"Tsubasa" is this world's legend.
It's a mysterious body that granted all the wishes of people in the past.
Even now, it's said that it rests somewhere in the world and that if you can find it, any wish could be realised... |
| Kotobuki: |
It seems like a rather mysterious place doesn't it
HOHE~ |
| Raimon: |
Really?
|
| ?: |
It's a thief--!! |
|
*BIKUU* (jumps) |
| Kotobuki: |
Wrong; it's not me |
| Raimon: |
Calm down Kotobuki
You really went through a lot... |
| Kotobuki: |
Just who was it!!
Scaring me like that!! |
| ?: |
Ahaha!
Take this!! |
| Kotobuki: |
!! |
|
*DOON* (jumps)
*BO* |
| Woman: |
Kyaaaa |
| Kotobuki: |
............!!
|
| Kotobuki: |
A child...!! |
|
*BA* (leaps over some rubble) |
| Raimon: |
Kotobuki |
| Tall guard: |
Let's go. |
| Short Guard: |
Yeah. |
| Woman: |
My child
My child... |
|
*DA DA* (runs) |
| Woman: |
Eh?
Aa, wait!! |
|
*GARA GARA GARA* (this crumble)) |
| Girl: |
Mama |
|
*GON* (bong) |
| Kotobuki: |
Oww
Get up and run
Hurry!! |
|
*GARA GARA*
|
|
*GARA GARA GARA* (building continues to collapse) |
| Woman: |
Aira! |
| Raimon: |
Injuries? |
| Kotobuki: |
None...
This...
is those guys' just then...
! |
|
*SU* (slips into the alley) |
| Raimon: |
Chasing after them too far is dangerous. |
| Kotobuki: |
I know!
Dammit
They're quick at running away |
|
It's not likely they went from roof to roof |
|
*satsu*
*MUKYUU*
|
| Kotobuki: |
..................... |
|
*RIN GON GON GON* (wedding bells ring) |
| Yan: |
Oops!
Sorry.
I was in a hurry so
Sorry 'bout that. |
|
Wh |
|
*PASA...* (drop) |
|
What happened just now...!! |
|
*GUGA CHO-N
|
| Arrow: |
Hair's standing on end |
| Woman: |
Truly, thank you very much.
How can we ever thank you... |
| Raimon: |
I didn't do anything.
It didn't even occur to me to do anything
If you're going to thank someone, you should say it to Kotobuki who's been constantly brushing her teeth over there. |
|
*shiku shiku shiku shiku* (cries) |
| Kotobuki: |
Uu |
| Raimon: |
Did something happen Kotobuki? |
|
*DOKII* (jumps) |
| Kotobuki: |
'ashin ahhenn. 'ashin
(Nothing happened. Nothing.)
Thanks aside, who were those people? |
| Woman: |
The resistance group "Teki". That banner is proof of that. They're supposed to have a base by the sea. |
| Kotobuki: |
Resistance meaning... |
| Raimon: |
Those people who are against this country's military regime. |
| Kotobuki: |
I see......
|
| Woman: |
For about the past week hereabouts,
They've been causing these sorts of incidents.
Using force to illustrate their beliefs |
| Kotobuki: |
......... |
| Raimon: |
The continents, countries and administrations have changed a bit from since before the 21st century, but this is roughly what the world map looks like.
This is the country you and I are in with a military regime; Neils.
Also, Dobney and other small countries here and there have much the same administrative system but
Well, anywhere you go, there are probably those who are against the administration.
For the militia, the resistance is known as "Blue Rose".
Meaning something that "isn't possible." |
| Kotobuki: |
.........
|
|
It's this sort of thing that makes me realise he really was part of the Militia. |
|
*BAKI* (snap) |
| Kotobuki: |
Are you going to just leave them? |
|
The Raimon that I don't know well from when he was in the Militia |
| Raimon: |
Shooting silent pheasants indiscriminately will only lead to more heated suppression, later so I'll leave things be.
I think Dobney and the others are different though. |
| Kotobuki: |
But, isn't it too late once something happens? |
| Raimon: |
The Militia isn't that soft
Villainous actions is their specialty. |
| Kotobuki: |
.........? |
| Raimon: |
I'm going to erase the map. |
| Kotobuki: |
Eh.
Wait. I want to look at it a bit longer.
It's the first time I've ever seen a map of the world. It's a bit surprising.
The world's really vast.
|
|
A vast, vast world.
It feels like I'd be swallowed up
So very easily |
| Raimon: |
Change of topic but, what did you want to do tomorrow? Did you want to look for a job? |
| Kotobuki: |
Umm....
If the "Teki" are doing those sorts of harsh things...
Aa. No good. I've been hanging onto that banner this whole time. |
| Raimon: |
...... |
| Kotobuki: |
I don't see any point in returning it, so I guess I'll just get rid of it.
I'm borrowing your lighter |
| Raimon: |
Why were you brushing your teeth? |
|
*shuru* (takes off bandana) |
| Kotobuki: |
I'm going to go burn this--!! |
|
*DOPYUU* (flees) |
| Raimon: |
...... |
|
It wasn't on purpose; that!!
It was an accident. By chance!!
|
|
But |
|
*BOU* |
|
It doesn't change the fact that I kissed someone other than Raimon |
|
If he finds out maybe he'll come to hate me!! |
|
*GA-N* |
|
That'd be bad!! |
| Guard: |
Hey!!
What're you burning in this sort of place. |
|
*zaku zaku* (step step) |
|
Ge
Gege!? (*uh oh*)
|
|
It's the guard--!! |
| Arrow: |
(Prepares to flee given the circumstances) |
| Guard: |
What's this; what was she burning?
This is......
You...... |
| Author Note: |
They stamped out the fire |
| Guard: |
Are you one of the "Teki"? |
| Kotobuki: |
Wha!!
I'm not!! |
| Guard: |
You guys caused a disturbance today didn't you.
Hey. Bring her. |
|
Wait
Hang on a minute. |
| Kotobuki: |
You're mistaken!
I found that thing!! |
| Guard: |
If you're going to resist
You leave me no choice
|
|
*DON* |
|
Ou- |
|
*DO* (falls)
*Kachin* (cocks gun) |
|
ch--!! |
|
*GUI* (pulls) |
| Guard: |
Don't worry. It's not poisoned.
You'll feel numb and sleepy and it'll loosen your tongue. That's all. |
|
Hey--!! |
|
*BACHI* |
| Raimon: |
Don't touch
|
| Kotobuki: |
Rai......... |
|
*KURU* (turns) |
| Kotobuki: |
Stu...
What're you doing. Let go!! |
|
*GU*
*DAN* (knocks Kotobuki against a tree) |
|
Just a moment ago
I could have
Knocked him away easily.
|
|
*ZOKU* (shiver)
*pe* (spits) |
| Raimon: |
It's alright now. |
|
*gaku gaku gaku* (shake shake shake) |
|
Wha
What is this? |
| Raimon: |
Hey
Who shot her? |
| Author Note: |
The drug has no effect on Raimon |
| Guard: |
I did!!
You dare defy the Militia...!? |
|
*PISHI* (grab) |
| Raimon: |
Would you mind
Not harming other people's property?
|
|
*BIKU* (twitch) |
| Guard: |
Captain |
|
What's wrong with me--... |
| Raimon: |
Where's your response? It's "yes" isn't it? "Yes" |
| Guard: |
......
Shiragi, sir...!? |
| Touya: |
Why don't you leave things at that
Raimon? |
|
*ZA* (comes to attention)
|
| Author's Note |
Tsubasa wo Motsu Mono 1
Nice to meet you or perhaps hello, I'm Takaya. "Tsubasa" has now reached its second volume. Is it alright, I'm so happy~. And for that reason Kotobuki is on the cover. Probably some people were wondering "who'll be on the second volume" but, sorry. Tsubasa is planned to be Kotobuki only. Hmm, a new unity. It feels good (laughs). Self satisfied...
Now then, this time is 1/4 *zaesan style so--.
We're going to end with talk on FF. No doubt. Afterall eh. Of course, I'd bought it on preorder.
1. Did you become Cloud yet...?
2. I made it--!!
3. It was so cool--!!
|
| Raimon: |
Huh
Major Touya Igram's entrance is it. |
| Kotobuki: |
Ma-... jor? |
| Raimon: |
Much higher ranking that company commander |
| Kotobuki: |
Ehh!? |
|
What's a guy like that doing in a place like this... |
|
*niko* (smiles) |
| Touya: |
It's been a while hasn't it
Raimon...? |
| Raimon: |
Isn't this is a bit much of a bad joke
even for you Touya? |
| Kotobuki: |
*Ge*
Calling him by name? |
| Touya: |
Isn't it you who's gone too far with the bad jokes Raimon?
|
| Touya: |
Harboring someone who's recorded on "F's" criminal list as a thief.
Not to mention she appears to be a member of the "Teki." |
| Author Note: |
"F" is the name of the Militia's mother computer |
| Kotobuki: |
I said
It's a mistake
The bit about being a thief...
Is true though... |
| Raimon: |
Ah
That's right.
Not good
Not good. |
| Aide: |
Eh!?
Ah... umm...
Shiragi, sir!? |
| Raimon: |
I need this |
| Arrow: |
PC PC |
|
*kata kata kata* (types)
*PI---* |
| Computer: |
No. 2416: Kotobuki; Data clear, clear. |
| Raimon: |
I'd forgotten to wipe that information. |
| Aide: |
Aaaahhh
That's not good
It'll cause problems,
Shiragi, sir!! |
| Touya: |
......
Ha---
Sheesh......
"F's" far too obedient to the things you do and bring about.
|
| Touya: |
You're very much as always... |
|
*PASHI* (slaps hand away) |
| Touya: |
.........
As always, it seems you still hate having your head touched. |
| Kotobuki: |
......... |
| Raimon: |
...I take no interest if you're making trouble for Kotobuki just to meddle, Touya. |
| Touya: |
*fufu*
But it's half work
I came here to scout on the "Teki."
It seems they've been causing trouble out here for the past few days
Not to mention, that girl hasn't been cleared of suspicions of being a member of the "Teki" yet |
| Kotobuki: |
I already said that you're mistaken!
Listen already! |
| Touya: |
If you say that, why don't you prove your innocence yourself
That's right,
For example, |
| Kotobuki: |
I told you |
| Touya: |
Sneak into the "Teki" and leak their activities to the Militia
Or some such. |
| Kotobuki: |
Huh!?
|
| Raimon: |
Tou--ya |
| Touya: |
Sorry Raimon
But this too is work
How about it |
| Kotobuki: |
Why should I spy like that... |
| Touya: |
Aa
That's right
*boso* (whispers)
You'd kissed another guy just a moment ago |
| Kotobuki: |
Why don't you tell me more!!
Over there |
| Touya: |
Sorry, I'm borrowing your girlfriend for a moment. |
|
*HA-* (sighs) |
| Kotobuki: |
Wh-wh-wh
Why do you know about that |
| Touya: |
I happened to see by chance.
You really are foolish aren't you. It should've been easy to bluff your way around that sort of statement considering there's no real proof.
|
| Kotobuki: |
That's right... |
|
*GAKUU* |
| Touya: |
......
Raimon...
was a very important flower for both the Colonel and I |
| Kotobuki: |
Huh? |
| Touya: |
Very, very carefully raising and watching over him as he went through the process of growing up |
|
*FU* (exhales) |
| Touya: |
A cute flower that at times would bear thorns or sprinkle poison
By the way, these are pictures from when he was 12 up to now. This unpleasant expression in his eyes is very nice.
|
| Kotobuki: |
What should I do. This guy's weird... |
| Touya: |
And the one who so cleanly snapped off that important flower is you.
So I won't let you see the photos |
|
*KI* (glare) |
| Kotobuki: |
Saying that... "it's you".........
What to do... |
| Touya: |
Aa~ah, if only he hadn't been dropped to the Guard's ranks
He'd've made full Captain by now.
|
| Kotobuki: |
A Captain...
You mean he wasn't originally part of the Guard? |
| Touya: |
Don't you know about the Militia's Raimon?
That's pathetic.
And yet you're his girlfriend?
And this is his girlfriend?
Raimon's?
Let me be frank. I don't care for you at all.
Now then. The "Teki" have been carrying out robberies recently.
Will you be able to find proof of this activity and more importantly get information that leads to their downfall. |
| Kotobuki: |
...... |
| Touya: |
If not, perhaps I'll let it get out that you were kissing another guy.
Naturally we'll also arrest you as a member of the "Teki" |
| Kotobuki: |
AUGH- |
| Touya: |
And then
I'll have you return Raimon to us
|
| Touya: |
......How's that. |
|
This
This bastard--!! |
| Kotobuki: |
I'll do it......
I'll do it
Just you watch |
| Touya: |
Fine
The "Teki's" base is in the shadow of the rocky cliffs by the sea.
Here's a map. How you get in is up to you but you're not to get Raimon's help. |
| Kotobuki: |
I've got it! |
| Touya: |
Well, if you manage to succeed,
I'll tell you anything you want to know about Raimon.
From my Private Diary
There are more than 20 volumes |
| Kotobuki: |
Get lost already!! |
| Touya: |
*fufu* (laughs)
Well, I wish you luck
|
| Touya: |
For your sake in proving your innocence
And for Raimon's sake. |
|
The Militia
haven't given up on Raimon yet afterall.
That guy's eyes were serious
His expression said he truly intends to reclaim Raimon... |
| Kotobuki: |
Prove my innocence~? |
|
That sort of thing is irrelevant
There's absolutely no way; Raimon |
| Kotobuki: |
Will never be given up!! |
|
*SHU*
*PASHI* |
| Raimon: |
What will never be given up? |
| Kotobuki: |
N-
Nothing
Nya!! |
| Raimon: |
What happened between you and Touya?
Are you going to be their spy? |
| Kotobuki: |
Eh!?
Umm...
Yeah...
It doesn't feel good to be under suspicion either right?
|
| Raimon: |
Really-? |
| Kotobuki: |
Just to keep things straight, you're not to do anything. This is my problem... |
| Raimon: |
No worries
I won't end up going with Touya. |
| Kotobuki: |
yeah......... |
|
Yeah
Absolutely
I absolutely
Won't give him over. |
| Raimon: |
Alright, I understand. For now, I'll just watch and say nothing.
But
Trying to cover things up is
|
| Raimon: |
Not allowed, okay?
......Such a slender neck |
|
Such large
hands |
|
*GAKU* (knees give)
|
| Kotobuki: |
Who is |
|
GATSU-N |
| Kotobuki: |
I'm taking a walk!! |
|
DOA-- |
| Raimon: |
Ouch... |
|
Why!?
Why. Why. Why!! |
|
Why all of a sudden |
|
Am I shaking like this!? |
|
Why didn't I realise it.
It's such an obvious thing too.
|
|
That Raimon is "a guy"...... |
| Kotobuki: |
But, even so...
That's no reason to for my entire body to shake like this~? |
|
*ZAA-N* |
| Aide: |
Major
Is it alright about Kotobuki... |
| Name: |
*ZAA... ZAA...* (sound of waves) |
| Touya: |
Our instructions are that it doesn't matter what we do if the results of destroying the "Teki" is getting hold of "that."
... well, prepare yourself and wait

Yan-bou; it seems that one portion of the readers think that you've fallen for Kotobuki |
| Yan: |
Huh!? |
| Kotobuki: |
Why!? |
|
*BACHI* (snaps)
YURAA |
| Raimon: |
............ |
| Yan: |
It's a lie.
Seriously it's all a misunderstanding.
Calm down
Sir--!! |

Shouka!!
Come back here!! |
