"It's a good-luck charm." "The eyes of the world were on Uddiyana today as the cease-fire..." "Uddiyana's capital. ...the ceremony was held during Uddiyana's traditional Kufura Jayanti festival... the Kufura." "peace had come to Uddiyana." "But there was no sign of Shirasu there that day." "It was about a week afterwards that I finally managed to get in touch with Shirasu." "Here!" "Right here!" "Right in front of you." "you're looking a lot better than I expected." "Senpai?" "You bet." "I even lost 5 kilos." "No way." "What can I get you?" " Hm..." "Butter tea." " Coffee." "What the hell?" "Shirasu had been taken into custody by the UNF." "It was five days after that that Shirasu was informed that she would not be returning to the SDC." "These are the personal effects that were sent from the frontline base." "Is this everything?" "Yes." "Also..." "We will be keeping all of the material that you shot." "It might contain certain material that would prove inconvenient to the UN. ...so there is no cause for concern." "I suppose not." "I was asked by Lt. Chris to give this to you personally." "Um..." "Does this mean that I won't be able to see any of those people again?" "No." "Never." "Shirasu was released." "This is the hotel I stayed at when I first I came to Subasci." "It still smells as musty as it did back then." "this is what it's like to be back at square one?" "That month I spent..." "What was it all for?" "Lt. Chris..." "You dropped your good-luck charm in the helicopter." "hasn't it?" "Is that all?" "Frayed?" "It doesn't look very..." "A memory card!" "Lt. Beroqui!" "Hey!" "Lt. Beroqui. ...it means that this memory card has been safely delivered to you." "I guess you're surprised that things have turned out this way." "This is a copy I made of your card before it was confiscated." "It contains all of the footage that you shot." "Miss Shirasu." "It is your property. ...photos that you risked your life for and poured your soul into." "not even the UN." "They are proof that you lived life to the fullest in the time you spent with us." "Beroqui!" "What's the holdup?" "Quick!" "Come here!" "Everything is ready!" "I'm gonna throw a shot I took of you from your best angle as a special bonus... grow up!" " Lunch break is almost over!" "Line up!" "Line up!" "now!" "Shirasu!" "Take care!" "Keep taking your wonderful pictures!" "And watch out for strange men!" "Lieutenant." "Don't start binge eating!" "And brush your teeth!"

"Guess I shouldn't have hung around and waited for things to settle down after the ceremony was over." "what are your plans now?" "I thought I'd stick around for a while." "There are lots of shots that I want to get." "but you should still be careful." "The insurgent attacks haven't completely stopped yet." "there was..." "Hey!" "Are you listening to me?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Sis?" "Takashi?" "I hear you called a while ago?" "You'll be able to come home soon?" "Yeah." "How are things back home?" "right?" "okay?" "He won't let up about it." "I remember." "I'll see you then." "that's the day after tomorrow!" "you're leaving already?" "there's lots of places where people are shooting at each other." "huh?" "we'll run into each other again." "you're still here?" "Sorry to disappoint you." "it's been a week since the signing ceremony." "don't you? too." "big guy?" "I don't really know." "Details on the UNF headquarters takeover and the whole Pou situation are still fuzzy." "It's hard to imagine things staying as-is." "then?" "I'm staying." "I hear you're leaving tomorrow?" "Yeah." "It's gonna be awfully quiet around here..." "Big guy!" "You have a visitor!" "you know that?" "peace has finally returned to my country." "I always had faith that this day would eventually come." "Unadulterated faith and love... ..."There probably isn't a power on Earth that can hold those two things back." "I was scared when it occurred to me that tomorrow also implied there would be a different future." "But I want to believe that there are ten million kufuras in the world." "I know you're one of them." "Is that... the airport?" "This can't be happening..." "It isn't right." "Keiichi?" "but I'm going back to Tokyo. ...but I've been running around like crazy trying to get on a flight." "Sorry." "I'll leave this for you at the front desk. ...there was one picture that really captivated me." "It's stayed in my mind ever since." "I figured it out." "isn't it?" "A prayer directed at tomorrow." "A prayer expressing belief in tomorrow." "Life and death always go hand in hand here..." "It came as a shock because I'd never seen so many deaths before." "I'm alive!" "But I met even more prayers than deaths." "and... but it's like the light of hope inside you never goes out." "I think that prayer is an act of courage." "I believe in tomorrow!" "I guess it's just like the significance that the Flag carries." "I finally realized what sort of pictures I wanted to take after I got to know this country." "After I got to know the people of the SDC unit." "Akagi-senpai." "Thank you so much. ...I think I finally understand what you've been telling me all these years." "it becomes the past. ...believing in the future that will come next." "I guess we do." "there are tons of pictures that I want to take now." "I'll be heading back to Tokyo ahead of you." "Keiichi." "Lisa?" "would you mind taking a picture of us?" "Of course." "say cheese." "three months?" "Keiichi." "Then you shouldn't have taken pictures of me." "What do you suppose it was?" "What was?" "The UNF's goal." "but they confiscated the pictures." "...and never disclosed that the Flag had been stolen in the first place." "it was probably a reinforcement plan meant to boost the Flag's value." "maybe it was more like an insurance policy." "they probably hoped to create a new legend using the photographer who took the Flag picture. ...and that there were some surprising players operating behind the scenes." "they tried to pretend the whole thing never happened." "They determined that was the best way to move the roadmap forward." "The powers that be did it on a whim." "On a whim? ...the story probably would have taken a different turn." "Keiichi!" "none of this would have happened..." "I hear that you're editing the footage and pictures she left for you." "It's unfinished business I need to see to." "Will you release them?" "I don't care about that anymore." "I'm just looking for closure." "I'd love to see them." "you will." "I promise." "I'm off." " Leaving so soon?" "I'm going back to Uddiyana on the first flight tomorrow." "Wait a minute..." "That country is just getting started." "They have a lot to work through." "What I can do is keep watching and keep taking pictures." "too. ...and I have my own things that I have to do." "Shirasu!" "We bore witness to a conflict in a far-off country." "a single picture will bring peace back." "And that's what yours did." "There are ten million kufuras in the world." "And if all those kufuras raise up the Flag at once in the hope of peace..." "Shirasu." "That's why people like us keep taking pictures." "right?" "okay?" "He won't let up about it." "I remember." "I'll see you then."
