Episode 5: Flowers from Budding Thoughts
Scene: The Kitchen Stadium hall.
With both of them holding onto Yuuki, the fierce competition between Eriko and Shizuru was flaring up again.
Eriko
Now, Lord Yuuki, open your mouth...
Shizuru
Yuuki would rather eat his big sister's food, wouldn't he?
Rino
I told you, my big brother's already totally full!
Man 1
Ahh, Eriko's totally fixated on that guy she's hugging...!
Man 2
N-N-No way... It's just a trick! A trick that my weak heart is playing on me!
Woman 1
Anyway, I came here today because I hear we'd get to eat chocolate!
Woman 2
I heard that all we needed to do was show up to get chocolate! So, hurry up and give it out to us!
Man 3
So that's how it is... I guess there's no way I'd ever get to eat chocolate made by a cute girl...
Man 4
Announce the winner of the contest already!
Man 1 & Woman 2
That's right, that's right!
Man 2 & Woman 1
That's right, that's right!
Cacaoura
Kyuuu... Kyuuu...
Rino
Ah, Coco!?
Shizuru
What's the matter?
Rino
I don't know! All of a sudden, he started looking like he was in pain...
Eriko
Somehow, I have a bad feeling about this...
Begin battle sequence.
Rino
Ahh!? Coco's cocoa seed...!
Rino
W-What do we do? His seed is cracking!
Rino
Coco, are you okay!?
Cacaoura
Kyuuuuuu....
Shizuru
Ah, look at that, everyone!
Rino
From the cracked seed... A giant monster came out!?
Eriko
It's like a monster made of chocolate!
Man 1
Wahhh! A giant monster appeared!
End battle sequence.
Woman 1 & 2
Eeeeeek!
Rino
Oh, no! The stadium is becoming a mess!
Shizuru
Audience members, be careful not to get hit by the monster's attacks!
Shizuru
Let's get a hold of that monster before it causes any more damage!
Rino
Big brother, please, strengthen us with your power!
Yuuki strengthens the others.
Shizuru
All right, your big sister's going to do her best!
Eriko
Lord Yuuki, please, keep your eyes on me.
Shizuru
Hah! Let's go!
Eriko
Vanish from my sight, enemy.
Shizuru
Wait, why did we start attacking at the exact same time!?
Eriko
Shizuru, you seem to be lacking in the spirit of compromise.
Rino
Ugh, the two of you, now isn't the time to argue!
Cacaoura
Kyuuu...
Ugly Lovely
Roaaaaar!
Rino
Its body is all liquid, so our attacks don't work on it at all.
Shizuru
Ugh... And it seems to be growing stronger little by little, too...
Eriko
Indeed, even a momentarily lapse in one's guard could spell danger. Ah!
Ugly Lovely
Roaaaaar!
Cacaoura
Choco, choco!
Coco takes a hit from the monster.
Cacaoura
Kyuuu!
Rino
Coco!?
Cacaoura
Kyuuu...
Rino
No... Coco was trying to protect us... Why...
Eriko
How could this happen!?
Shizuru
He only seems to be unconscious, though. Little brother, quickly, hide him someplace safe.
Yuuki
1. "Got it!"
Ugly Lovely
Roaaaaar!
Eriko
That beast is stubbornly going after that tiny monster...
Shizuru
It originally came out of that creature's cocoa seed, didn't i t? They might be connected somehow.
Rino
Big brother's being chased! This time, I... I'll protect you, Coco!
Ugly Lovely
Roaaaaar!
Rino
EEEEK!
Rino
H-Huh? It doesn't hurt...
Eriko
Goodness, Lord Yuuki threw himself before Rino to cover her!
Rino
Big brother!? Why...
Yuuki
1. "Coco would be sad if you were hurt, Rino."
2. "Coco is a part of your family, right?"
Option 1.
Rino
But...
Option 2.
Rino
My family...
End of branches.
Eriko
Lord Yuuki, behind you!
Shizuru
Huh!? Some kind of liquid is coming from that monster's mouth!
Rino
It's trapped Yuuki!?
The monster has taken Yuuki as a hostage. Shizuru and the others must now find some way to break the stalemate.
