"So is everybody this lonely when they're in love?" "They embrace a pain that's deeper than the shadows?" "It's all to make us shine, I just know it..." "I love you, I love you," "I gaze at you with my heart..." "I believe in you, I believe in you, even on the coldest of nights." "I call out to you with my tears, but I don't need any promises..." "That's the precious strength you've given to me..." "Uh..." "I..." "Hitomi." "Van..." "You're soaked!" "Oops!" "I said you should've just left her alone..." "Um..." "I guess I'll see you later." "Hitomi." "You mustn't catch cold." "You should turn in early." "Tomorrow is Millerna's wedding ceremony, after all." "Until tomorrow, then." "You almost had me there." "You almost won." "Damn it..." "Still, my luck was the stronger a while back." "Now we're even." "Damn it, don't act so smug!" "But I won, remember?" "What?" "Lord Folken's lips..." "Were they warm?" "Let me feel them, too." "H-Hey!" "Naria..." "I want Lord Folken's love." "There wasn't any." "If we hadn't kissed, I'd still have my dream." "Lord Folken may show us kindness, but I didn't feel any love." "But we are happy, right...?" "Yeah." "Our lives should've ended then." "Poor things." "Yours has been a hard fate..." "I will give you new names." "Today you are reborn." "This time, you'll be blessed with better luck." "I thought we were supposed to be lucky." "But we haven't been able to defeat the dragon." "It would seem that at its current level, your luck is unable to overcome his power." "Lord Folken!" "Naria." "Eriya." "If you wish, I'll grant you even more luck." "An unparalleled luck." "One which can lose to no one." "No, this isn't the one either..." "That's strange, I could have sworn I had one that would go perfectly with it." "Mr. Mole!" "How can I put this...?" "You used to have a glow about you, but now it's gone." "I was wondering what was wrong." "Hey!" "This is it!" "Of all your treasures, I guess there's only one that perfectly suits you." "And that's the one." "I will completely replace your bodies' blood with Fortune Blood." "Fortune Blood?" "Emperor Dornkirk's research selected people with strong luck and a high survivability factor from all over Zaibach." "And from the nuclei of their cells, he extracted Fortune DNA, which he then fused together using the Fate Alteration Engine to create this artificial blood." "The risk is great." "Even the slightest mistake would" "We'll be fine." "I know we will." "We're lucky." "Intensify luck!" "Is this really what's right for Millerna?" "Hitomi?" "Millerna!" "Um..." "Hitomi?" "Why now?" "I just don't know..." "I'm just not sure if I can live with Dryden." "Well, this isn't a Las Vegas wedding or anything..." "Las Vegas wedding?" "You just have marriage jitters." "Marriage jitters?" "Anyway, I can't tell fortunes anymore." "Come on, please!" "If you tell me my fortune, I think it'll help." "But what if I call up some strange future again?" "Whatever the cards say, I'll believe them." "Please." "Three of Serpents." "The Hanged Man." "Moon." "Tension." "Self-sacrifice." "Uncertainty." "She's worried about this political marriage, all right." "She wants to be free of the pressure." "Um..." "You're worried about the marriage because it's so sudden." "But you can't be impetuous." "Ace of Birds." "Five of Fishes." "Devil." "Five of Beasts." "If she gets married now, she will know deep sadness and will be involved in a feud because of someone near to her." "Hitomi?" "There may be many small difficulties in your married life, but..." "The Lovers?" "What was that?" "What's wrong?" "The Falling Tower?" "So this marriage is wrong?" "But if I tell her these results, I know she'll cancel the wedding!" "But if she does..." "The Emperor." "The sign of good fortune." "If I can guide that card, maybe I can drawthat kind of future into place." "Right...!" "If I can use the power of my will," "I know I can call up a better future." "I'm sorry..." "But if I wish for it hard enough, I know I can change destiny." "Don't worry." "This card indicates good fortune." "In other words, marrying Dryden will make you happy." "Happy... with Dryden." "Millerna..." "I want you to have all the luck in the world." "What's that?" "A charm." "Charm?" "T-To wish Dryden and Millerna happiness." "Ye wise children of Asturia, a land blessed with rich land and water, embraced by sun and moon." "This day bears witness to a blessed event." "This new" "The probability graph is stabilizing due to the separation of the girl and the dragon." "This is the perfect opportunity to capture Hitomi Kanzaki, the key to the alteration of fate." "But what if there is further influence from the dragon...?" "Should that happen, eliminate the dragon." "There is nothing to worry about, Lord Folken." "Our luck is now invincible." "We will surely capture Hitomi Kanzaki." "No...!" "No!" "It's just like my first reading said!" "This oughta rein in that tomboy princess some." "They can't!" "The marriage is all wrong!" "H-Hey!" "That's Brother's" "They spotted us!" "The dragon showed us its location all by itself!" "." "Our luck is operating on a whole new level, all right." "Wait!" "Hitomi?" "Don't!" "Don't kiss!" "What?" "An eclipse?" "Now?" "This is an ill omen..." "What's going on?" "It's an enemy attack!" "Enemy attack!" "Zaibach!" "Millerna!" "Zaibach?" "But why?" "Here come the Melefs!" "A malfunction?" "No, not now!" "Look out!" "Dryden!" "The castle...!" "You two again?" "!" "I can't let you get near Hitomi!" "What the--?" "!" "This is the power of luck intensification!" "Dryden!" "Hitomi!" "Is he all right?" "Come on!" "Damn, is this pathetic or what?" "Dryden..." "This will do for now." "Escaflowne!" "Van!" "What's going on?" "!" "No!" "Attention, people of Asturia." "We are the Zaibach Intensified Luck Soldiers." "I repeat, attention, people of Asturia." "Brother..." "I repeat, attention, people of Asturia." "We are the Zaibach Intensified Luck Soldiers." ""Intensified Luck Soldiers"...?" "Luck?" "Resistance is futile." "Horrible misfortune awaits..." "" Luck"?" "Don't tell me this card..." "Horrible misfortune awaits..." "" Luck"?" "Don't tell me this card..." "...any who dare oppose our luck." "...any who dare oppose our luck." "Because I used this card to..." "...any who dare oppose our luck." "...to switch one destiny for another!" "We have but one demand:" "Hitomi Kanzaki, the girl from the Mystic Moon." "What?" "!" "If you wish to avoid further misfortune, hand over Hitomi Kanzaki at once!" "They can't be serious!" "No!" "Don't do it, Hitomi!" "Dryden!" "I..." "It's all because I told a false fortune..." "A false fortune?" "The cards really said that this wedding was wrong." "But I thought I could change it, so I..." "I thought I could will it to change." "What are you saying?" "Millerna, the right man for you is Allen!" "But I love Allen, and I didn't want to lose him." "I changed the results!" "I switched one destiny for another!" "Hitomi...!" "This is all my fault." "All of it." "Hitomi...?" "Hitomi!" "Dryden?" "Dryden!" "Hang on!" "I'm right here!" "What?" "I'm the girl from the Mystic Moon!" "Hitomi Kanzaki!" "Blue searchlights meet beyond the Moon..." "Yeah, my angel who came flying down, who are you?" "The doors of destiny are opening before us, se let's just fall in love." "I can't break free of this moment that's making my heart flutter..." "Don't stop baby!"
