Here in the rain

Elda...

taluta.

Dad...

what is this?

Dad?

Dad?

Dad...

I...

I...

I...

I...

A dream...

Was that a dream?

Forgotten Thoughts

No.

Don't look.

What happened?

What do you mean?

Well, you looked at this, screamed, and then...

Come on, what happened?

Shoes.

The red shoes went somewhere.

I wonder where they went?

Madlax...

You're calling off the search for Madlax?

What's this about?

We took care of her on our end.

We don't need to recover the data, either.

She's dead?

Is that what you're saying?

Even if she's alive, she's not the Madlax you know anymore.

That girl is supposed to be dead?

That's unthinkable.

Even if she is...

I won't acknowledge it.

I see, so Secondari has been found?

That is what Miss Nakhl reports.

Who has it?

A maiden named Margaret Burton, who lives in Nafrece.

A maiden...

a girl?

Yes. Miss Nakhl reports that she has made one failed attempt at its recovery.

I see.

In addition, apparently Enfant has made contact with the maiden.

They're targeting her, aren't they.

Hi.

In all probability, yes.

Please tell Nakhl that I entrust the matter entirely to her.

Yes, my lady.

Twelve years...

that's the time when it begins to move again.

Is there something you want to say to me today?

I hesitated over whether to tell you this or not,

but in the end I decided that I should.

About the book you have.

The book?

What I have to say is very important.

Then we'd by all means like to hear it.

Elenore, why...

It's also my job to protect Miss Margaret, you see.

I know when I'm beat.

Carrossea Doon...

Margaret Burton...

If you take it,

I'll kill you.

I'll kill you.

Drink this and calm down a little.

Thanks.

Ouch.

Was it too hot?

I'm fine.

Say...

What's that doing there?

That's dangerous, you know.

You don't remember...

Never mind.

Tell me if you want another cup.

Okay, I will.

I'll come straight to the point. You should get rid of that book.

Why is that?

There's someone who's after it.

After it?

Miss Margaret's book?

Yes.

Do you have any support for that theory?

Yes, I do.

Margaret is being watched.

Even now, at this very moment.

Who is it?

I don't know.

But the fact remains that she's in danger.

How do you know that it's the book that's being targeted?

Because that book is very valuable.

No.

Miss...

I absolutely won't!

All right. I'll take care of the situation somehow.

But in the future, please never bring that book where people can see it.

Do you understand?

I'll escort you home.

Please tell me something.

What would you like to know?

Just what are you?

Madlax looked at that screen.

And then something happened to her.

There's no doubt about that.

Maybe I should have a doctor look at her.

But she said she was being targeted.

She can't go outside carelessly.

Vanessa.

Say...

What?

Can I sleep with you?

No?

What are you thinking about?

Red shoes.

Red shoes?

I forgot, I bought this on the way.

Here.

What is it?

Shoes?

Margaret was lovingly admiring them earlier.

Those were the ones you wanted, right?

They weren't?

What are you thinking about?

I was just remembering a time when I bought a friend of mine red shoes.

A friend?

Yeah. My friend Margaret.

You see, a long time ago I was her tutor, and now I'm her next-door neighbor.

She looks completely different from you, but she's a little like you.

Margaret...

Right, Margaret Burton.

I wonder if I can become one too.

What?

A friend...

Yes, you can.

Then I'll have to dress up nice and go meet her.

Yes. That's a good idea.

I'm sorry.

Are you worried about what Mr. Doon said this afternoon, Miss?

Yeah, because...

I have my doubts.

After all, even supposing you're being watched by someone,

that doesn't necessarily mean that someone is after the book.

What Carrossea said was the truth.

You believe it?

I think it's the truth.

It'll be all right.

No matter what may happen, I'll protect you.

So please don't worry.

Okay. Thank you, Elenore.

Which one is on your mind?

The book, or that girl?

Carrossea Doon.

Well, well. It looks like I don't need to introduce myself.

But I'll need you to introduce yourself.

Who are you?

I see.

I'll ask you one thing. Why don't you steal the book?

I'm the one asking the questions.

Why don't you steal it?

I can't steal it from that girl. I think perhaps you understand that.

Given this and the way you acted in Gazth-Sonika,

I don't think you're operating under Enfant's orders.

I see, so I was the one being watched?

I wonder.

Tell me what you're after.

Tell me.

You have the Gift.

What?

Nakhl.

My name is Nakhl.

The quest for truth isn't something that goes quite as I'd wish.

Madlax?

She couldn't have...

God won't forgive a lie like this

The light of the moon seen through glass

Because I committed the sin of being untrue to my memories

I become unable to see even yesterday

Shoes... I become unable to see even yesterday

Red shoes... I become unable to see even yesterday

Somewhere... I become unable to see even yesterday

I'm here

I have to go. I have to say it. I'm here

I have to go. I have to say it.

That must've been a mistake from the beginning

And sadness was fixed in place then too

Red shoes. And sadness was fixed in place then too

And sadness was fixed in place then too

One... And sadness was fixed in place then too

One...

One... And yet I'm still crying

And yet I'm still crying

Two... And yet I'm still crying

And yet I'm still crying

Three... And yet I'm still crying

And yet I'm still crying

Four... And yet I'm still crying

And yet I'm still crying

Five... And yet I'm still crying

Five... Longing to be clasped to that breast

Longing to be clasped to that breast

Six... Longing to be clasped to that breast

Longing to be clasped to that breast

Seven... Longing to be clasped to that breast

Longing to be clasped to that breast

Bang. Longing to be clasped to that breast

I want to communicate my feelings just one more time

There's no way she wouldn't notice me. I want to communicate my feelings just one more time

There's no way she wouldn't notice me. Inside a dream, all remnants of warmth are disappearing

Inside a dream, all remnants of warmth are disappearing

She's not that girl anymore. Inside a dream, all remnants of warmth are disappearing

Inside a dream, all remnants of warmth are disappearing

Madlax...

Madlax... It's all right if you're the only one

It's all right if you're the only one

I want you to hold me

I have to say it. I want you to hold me

I have to say it. Telling me you're here, always, always

Telling me you're here, always, always

Say what? Telling me you're here, always, always

What are you doing out here?! Telling me you're here, always, always

Telling me you're here, always, always

A moonlit night

What's with you, doing this all of a sudden? A moonlit night

What's with you, doing this all of a sudden? Gentle sighs

And in that outfit too. Gentle sighs

Gentle sighs

It doesn't look good on me? Gentle sighs

It doesn't look good on me? Atoning fingertips

Atoning fingertips

Well, it does, but... Atoning fingertips

Well, it does, but... I'm waiting

I'm waiting

Let's go back. I'm waiting

But... I'm waiting

But... I'm here

I'm here

Come on, let's go back. I'm here

I'm here

Do you have some business with us?

Yes, it's just like he said.

You're not the way you were anymore.

What are you doing?

Dad...

Dad...

I'm scared.

What?

I'm scared.

Dad,

what is this?

Dad...

I...

I...

I...

I'm scared.

I see. I'm a tiny bit sad.

Stop it.

Get away. If you don't, I'll shoot.

Get away!

It's no use.

If you're shaking that badly, you won't hit me even at close range like this.

Run, Madlax.

Run!

You're in the way.

And you really irritate me.

Dad?

Dad?

Get lost.

Are you saying you'll let me go?

I just don't want to kill someone when I don't even know what's going on.

You'll regret this, you know.

Yeah, I probably will.

Don't go wandering outside without telling me.

Let's go.

Go?

Hey, wait up!

You're the one who wandered outside!

Starting today, I'll be accompanying you to and from school as well.

I'm sorry.

There's no need for you to apologize, Miss.

Thank you, then.

Hey...

Please don't take the book.

Please don't take it.

Miss, that person was...

Yeah. Definitely. I'm sure.

She has the Gift.

In that case, I will merely flow with the course of events.

I was acting different than usual?

Yep.

That wouldn't happen.

You were. You asked me to sleep with you, for one thing.

That would definitely never happen.

I'm telling you, it's true!

More importantly...

Miss... why...

Pasta would be good.

I want to have some pasta.
