Namco × Capcom/Story/S2:Stage

《Busshitsukai: In Front of the Mishima Zaibatsu Building》

Regina: "So, to summarize, this is what you're saying?"
Regina: "You died once, and then you were resurrected using Eastern magic?"
Fong Ling: "...So, there are zombies even if they're not infected with a virus?"
Hsien-Ko: "That's right. I'm a Jiangshi, though."
Hsien-Ko: "Well, I don't do anything bad to humans, so there's nothing to worry about."
Bruce: "We've picked up something troublesome. I hope it doesn't interfere with the mission."
Regina: "So, why was that Darkstalker... that resident of Makai... on the Spencer Lane at that time?"
Hsien-Ko: "I felt a tremendous demonic energy, or rather, 'power'. There's probably a considerably large hole in Japan."
Fong Ling: "'Hole'... What do you mean?"
Hsien-Ko: "It's like a passage connecting this world and another world."
Regina: "If that's true... then the incidents happening all over the world, where monsters from another world are appearing..."
Bruce: "They're crawling out of that hole?"
Bruce: "...Tch, what's happening to the world?"
Regina: "I'll leave the monsters from another world to someone else. Dealing with Shadaloo is still better."
Bruce: "..."
Hsien-Ko: "What's wrong?"
Bruce: "It's quiet... too quiet..."
Fong Ling: "...Now that you mention it... you're right."

(2 Pistol Daimyos and 3 Benjamin Okubo Hikozaemon appear)

Regina: "...!"
Fong Ling: "Wh-what...?!"
Bruce: "Could it be... a trap?!"
Regina: "A trap? Whose trap?!"
Bruce: "I don't know! Mishima? Shadaloo? Or those guys we fought on the ship...?"
Hsien-Ko: "It might be none of them. They're enemies we've never seen before, after all."
Bruce: "...Damn it, let's fight back!"

2 enemies defeated

Bruce: "That makes two of them."
Bruce: "Even so... I can't believe they were robots."
Feng Ling: "Bruce, who do you think the enemy is? ...To be able to create such sophisticated combat robots..."
Regina: "That's what you'd expect from something made in Japan."
Hsien-Ko: "They look ridiculous though."

(Black Bravo and 2 Pistol Daimyos appear)

Black Bravo: "Heh heh... American special forces, huh? Engaging in a gunfight here in Japan..."
Bruce: "Who are you?"
Bruce: "You look human, but... what's with that outfit? Is that some new fashion?"
Black Bravo: "Is that supposed to be an American joke? I'm not laughing."
Fong Ling: "Isn't that some kind of protective gear?"
Fong Ling: "I wish you'd take this seriously, Bruce."
Bruce: "...I didn't mean it like that."
Bruce: "Tch, at least we can understand each other."
Regina: "If they have hostile intentions, it doesn't matter either way."
Regina: "Answer me. Why are you targeting us? What's your objective?"
Black Bravo: "The reason is because I was ordered to. The objective is your elimination. That's all."
Hsien-Ko: "How... precise."

(Jin Kazama appears)

Jin: "I'd like to know who gave you those orders."
Bruce: "That guy!"
Regina: "He's one of the karate masters who was on the Spencer Lane."
Black Bravo: "What...? Who are you?"
Jin: "...Jin Kazama. Weren't you given orders by... Heihachi Mishima?"
Black Bravo: "Well. I don't discuss anything that would be detrimental to my client... It's a basic rule of business."
Black Bravo: (Kazama...? Hmm, I see.)
Jin: "..."
Fong Ling: (We've met again in front of Heihachi Mishima's castle... This can't be a coincidence.)
Fong Ling: (Jin Kazama... According to the documents, he's the son of Heihachi Mishima's son, Kazuya Mishima...)
Lei Lei: "Isn't that the guy who Zabel was after before?"
Bruce: "Sorry, karate master. Looks like we're stuck with each other."
Jin: "Don't worry about it. ...I'm just fighting for my own purpose."
Jin: "Here I come...!"

9 actions taken

(Your team appears)

Xiaomu: "Oh, there they are. Sorry to keep you waiting! Have you been waiting long?"
M.O.M.O.: "Um... this isn't exactly a relaxed situation."
M.O.M.O.: "Some of the personal data matches the combat data from earlier."
Beraboman: "...It seems so."
Jin: "Are they enemy reinforcements?"
Bruce: "No, they seem to be allies. They said the red jacket was the identifying mark."
Reiji: "U.S. Joint Strategic Command, Bruce McGivern is..."
Bruce: "That's me. And... are you the agent from 'Shinra'?"
Bruce: "What an amazing organization. ...I have absolutely no idea what the criteria are for membership."
Xiaomu: "Not all of them are members of 'Shinra'."
Reiji: "The only members are me and this little one here."
Reiji: "I'll talk about the others later. It's going to be a long story."
Lei-Lei: "Aiya! Felicia?"
Felicia: "Huh? Why are you here!?"
Feng Ling: "Are you two acquaintances?"
Felicia: "Yeah. We're both Darkstalkers."
Lei-Lei: "I'm a Jiangshi, not a Darkstalker!"
Wonder Momo: "Darkstalker...!? Felicia-san, you weren't human!?"
King: (So this is how it got revealed...)
Regina: "...Isn't this getting a little complicated? I hate trouble."
KOS-MOS: "This seems like it's going to be an even bigger problem."
Black Bravo: "..."
Bravoman: "..."
Shion: "You're right. They look like acquaintances... but it feels off somehow..."
King: "A man in a black mask, huh?"
Wonder Momo: "Mr... King!?"
King: "Yeah, there was a man like that. ...A long time ago."
Felicia: "Um... are you talking about your master?"
King: "...Yeah, but he's no longer in this world."
Black Bravo: "It's been a long time, Bravoman... or rather, Hitoshi Nakamura."
Bravoman: "As a fellow salaryman, I'm not impressed."
Bravoman: "...Are you going to repeat the same mistake again... Myojima?"
Black Bravo: "A 'mistake'? It's a 'trial,' Nakamura."
Bravoman: "...Where is Dr. Bomb?"
Black Bravo: "I have a confidentiality agreement."
Bravoman: "...I suppose so."
Black Bravo: "That's how it is."

[Stage Title Card]

vs Benjamin Okubo Hikozaemon/Pistol Daimyo

Bruce & Regina (After Black Bravo appears)

Bruce: "A robot soldier, huh? If we can do something about its appearance, it might even be usable in the military."
Regina: "If that happens, we'll be out of a job."
Bruce: "...That would be a problem. We'll have to show them what we're made of."

Hsien-Ko & Fong Ling (After Black Bravo appears)

Hsien-Ko: "A robot?"
Fong Ling: "It's a mechanical doll."
Hsien-Ko: "Hmm... We're fighting against all sorts of unusual things, like monsters and machines."
Fong Ling: "You say that so casually, really..."

Bravoman & Wonder Momo

Bravoman: "The Bomb Army... It seems they're steadily reorganizing."
Wonder Momo: "But Bravo-san, you completely wiped out the Bomb Army, didn't you!?"
Bravoman: "...I failed to eliminate the ringleader. It seems we're paying the price for that now."
Bravoman: (Dr. Bomb... However, this would be impossible without a considerably large financial backer...)

vs Black Bravo

Bravoman & Wonder Momo

Wonder Momo: "This person... he really does look alike...!"
Wonder Momo: "Bravo-san! Is this the man from the Nitta 4-chome Incident!?"
Bravoman: "...That's right."
Bravoman: "A man who possessed the ability to master the 'Super Transformation Substance'... and sided with the evil army led by Dr. Bomb."
Black Bravo: "...As long as you belong to the organization, whether it's good or evil doesn't matter."
Black Bravo: "That's the way we businessmen live. ...Isn't that right, Nakamura?"
Bravoman: "That's right, Myojima."
Bravoman: "Even if I'm operating independently, I have no intention of stopping this fight...!"

King & Felicia

King: "Is a black mask a sign of a villain?"
Black Bravo: "What are you trying to say?"
King: "...I expect you to have the skill worthy of that black mask."
Black Bravo: "What...?"
Felicia: (King-san, as I thought... he's thinking about his deceased master...)

KO

Black Bravo: "For my first match back, this is about what I expected..."
Wonder Momo: "Are you running away!?"
Felicia: "That's cowardly!"
Black Bravo: "Cowardly?" "You could say I know when to quit."
Bravoman: "...Myojima"
Black Bravo: "We'll meet again, Nakamura... no, Bravoman."
Black Bravoman: "The battle... has only just begun."
Bravoman: "..."
Jin: "Wait. I have something I want to ask you."
Black Bravoman: "You again. ...I have nothing to say to you."

(Black Bravoman retreats)

Jin: "Wait! I won't let you escape!"

(Jin retreats)

Xiaomu: "Hey, wait a minute!"
Xiaomu: "...It's no use, he's gone..."
Reiji: "Jin Kazama... who is he?"
Fong Ling: "..."
Hsien-Ko: "Anyway... it's all over now, isn't it?"
Hsien-Ko: "Our numbers have decreased too, though."
Shion: "But... we'll manage somehow."
Felicia: "It's the power of numbers, isn't it?"
KOS-MOS: "Wait. ...I've detected a spatial distortion."
Reiji: "What...!?"
Xiaomu: "Could it be... a 'fluctuation'!?"
M.O.M.O.: "They're coming!"

(Dimensional transfer: 3 Kamaitachi - Sous and 3 Kamaitachi - Kous appear)

Bruce: "What are these things!?"
King: "Monsters!? But..."
Bravoman: "Kamaitachi...? Aren't those Japanese yokai?"
Wonder Momo: "...That's right. I think I read about them in a book when I was a kid..."
Xiaomu: "That's right. They're quite common in the 'closed city' of Shibuya..."
Reiji: "They've even appeared here...!?"
Reiji: "And this many at once!?"
Felicia: "They're still enemies, right? Let's take them down!"
Shion: "KOS-MOS, what's the analysis!?"
KOS-MOS: "Still unknown. No biological response. However, they are also different from beings like the Gnosis."
Regina: "Will shooting them work?"
M.O.M.O.: "Physical intervention seems possible."
Fong Ling: "Then anything is fine with me."
King: "I agree. If kicks and throws work, we can manage."
King: "I don't know what they want with us..."
Xiaomu: "Then let's ask them."
Xiaomu: "...Um, are you some kind of yokai?"
Wonder Momo: "...Ugh, that's so cliché..."
KOS-MOS: "Such wordplay is inappropriate in this situation."
Xiaomu: "Ugh... You humorless mechanical girl."
Reiji: "There's no need to ask what they want. ...They seem to want to mess with us."
Reiji: "Guh...!?"
Bruce: "Huh? Hey..."
Xiaomu: "Reiji...?"
Reiji: "...I-I'm fine. Let's do this."

vs Kamaitachi

Reiji & Xiaomu

Reiji: "..."
Xiaomu: "What's wrong, Reiji? You've been acting strange."
Xiaomu: "That scar... it's from ten years ago, isn't it?"
Reiji: "...As you get older, things start to fall apart."
Reiji: "The opponent is a low-level Kamaitachi... I'll take it down in one go."
Xiaomu: "..."
Reiji: (More than this pain... this feeling... what is it?)

Bruce & Regina

Bruce: "What? A Japanese yokai?"
Regina: "It seems to be a Japanese monster..."

Hsien-Ko & Fong Ling

Hsien-Ko: "Wearing blades on both hands, what a dangerous monster!"
Fong Ling: "...You're one to talk."
Hsien-Ko: "These are claws, you know."
Hsien-Ko: "I'm more natural, you see."

KOS-MOS

KOS-MOS: "Commencing combat for information gathering."

Shion & M.O.M.O.

Shion: "Let's fight and gather information in our own way."
Shion: "Let's go, Momo!"
M.O.M.O.: "Yes!"

3 Kamaitachis remain

Xiaomu: "Reiji, have you noticed?"
Xiaomu: "These guys... they're different from usual. They're trying to find something..."
Reiji: "..."
Xiaomu: "Reiji...? What's wrong with you? You've been like this for a while."
Xiaomu: "Is your chronic stomach ailment acting up again?"
Reiji: "...It's nothing."
Reiji: "Besides, a stomach ailment affects the stomach."
Xiaomu: (His scar... from 10 years ago...?)
M.O.M.O.: "Um... Mr. Arisu, what's wrong?"
Bruce: "I've been wondering, about that flashy scar on your head..."
Bruce: "Could it be that the wound reopened during the battle!?"
Regina: "I have hemostatic agents if you need them."
KOS-MOS: "I don't detect any bleeding, though."
Reiji: "...I'm fine."
Reiji: "There are still enemies left... Don't worry about me."

(Dokugozu and Dokumezu appear)

Wonder Momo: "Another new enemy!?"
KOS-MOS: "It's unidentifiable, but its constituent components appear to be the same as the entity referred to as 'Kamaitachi'."
King: "So, it's enemy reinforcements?"
Xiaomu: "Wh-what...! A blue ox and a red horse...!?"
Xiaomu: "Reiji! Look at them!"
Reiji: "...Those are... it can't be!"

(??? appears)

???: "I wondered where you were wandering off to..."
???: "To think you were playing around in a place like this."
Bravoman: "A woman...!?"
Felicia: "...Wow, amazing!"
M.O.M.O.: "Wh-what is it?"
???: "You all... return to your posts."

(The remaining Kamaitachis retreat)

King: "They followed her instructions...? Are you one of the monsters' allies!?"
Xiaomu: "You...!"
???: "Ah... I see, they came here after finding you."
???: "It's been a while, little one."
???: "You're still small everywhere, as always."
Xiaomu: "...That's none of your business. It's not like having bumps and curves everywhere is a good thing."
Reiji: "..."
???: "The same red jacket..."
???: "I see, so that boy is your new partner, huh?"
???: "Hehe~? He's quite a handsome man, isn't he?"
Reiji: "..."
Xiaomu: (10 years... She doesn't seem to have noticed anything about Reiji.)
Felicia: "Are you... a Darkstalker?"
Lei-Lei: "...It seems the same... but it also feels somehow different."
???: "Well, we'll talk about it later, girls."
???: "I have to hurry now, or I'll be late for my date."
Xiaomu: "Don't be ridiculous! Ten years have passed since then... Why are you here?!"
???: "Hehe... You'll find out soon enough."
???: "Well then, everyone, farewell..."
Reiji: "...Wait."
???: "Hmm? What is it, boy?"

[Location: In Front of Shinra HQ]

Reiji: "...The location for the date is 'Shinra' HQ, right?"
Xiaomu: "...!"
???: "..."
???: "Oh, you shouldn't come peeking."
???: "I have a dangerous date with a wonderful gentleman. Hehe..."
???: "...It's with that gentleman, Bison of Shadaloo, you see."
Bruce: "Shadaloo!?"
Fong Ling: "What kind of relationship do you have with him!?"
???: "Who knows? Well, that's all for now."
???: "See you later."
Reiji: "Yeah, we'll meet again..."
???: "I'm looking forward to it."
???: "You look pale, boy. ...Take care of yourself."

(???, Dokumezu, and Dokugozu leave)

M.O.M.O.: "W-What was that... that woman just now...?"
Felicia: "...She seemed like the 'sexy' type, didn't she?"
Shion: (W-Well, if you're going to say that, I'm not losing to her...)
Reiji: "..."
Xiaomu: "Reiji... that woman..."
Bravoman: "Arisu-kun... is she someone you know?"
Reiji: "Just... the woman who killed my parents."
Wonder Momo: "Eh...!?"
Xiaomu: "Reiji, don't get so worked up."
Xiaomu: "...I understand how you feel...but..."
Reiji: "Xiaomu, don't make that face. ...It's not like you."

If there are any enemies remaining

Bruce: "Damn, too many problems are happening all at once...!" Bruce: "Anyway, let's take care of the remaining enemies."

All enemies defeated

[Location: In Front of 'Shinra' HQ]

Reiji: "...We're heading to headquarters in Roppongi immediately."
Regina: "Wait. I don't know who she is, but... that was definitely an 'invitation'."
Fong Ling: "That's true... she was talking too much."
Fong Ling: "It felt like she was unnaturally dropping keywords."
Reiji: "...She's a woman who likes to talk."
Reiji: "I know that well... or rather, I remember it."
Xiaomu: "..."
King: "What kind of relationship do they have? '...Revenge for my parents...' that's not exactly a pleasant thought."
Reiji: "That's exactly what it means."
Reiji: "...Bruce, something urgent has come up. I'll join the Strategic Command's investigation later."
Bruce: "...Understood. We'll continue the investigation based on our own judgment."
Hsien-Ko: "Huh!? You're just going to ignore it!?"
Bruce: "We have nothing to do with that mysterious woman and the Yokai she leads... or whatever they are."
Bruce: "We have no connection to those people."
Fong Ling: "..."
Bruce: "...But the connection to Shadaloo is suspicious."
Bruce: "Don't you think so, Fong Ling?"
Fong Ling: "Heh... yes. We'll need to investigate Roppongi."
Regina: "...Honestly, you're too kind."
Bruce: "Because I'm a 'Donggua'."
Wonder Momo: "We're going to the headquarters together, right?"
King: "We'll see you off there... right?"
Felicia: "Of course!"
Shion: "We'd be in trouble if we were left behind. So, we'll go with you, Arisu-san."
Reiji: "Do as you please. ...But I can't guarantee your safety."
KOS-MOS: "It is presumed that everyone here understands that before speaking."
Reiji: "...Good grief."
Reiji: "Alright... let's go."
Xiaomu: "..."
Xiaomu: (Reiji... I wanted to leave him alone, but I also thought that a day like this might come...)
Xiaomu: (And I... may have to tell him the truth...)
M.O.M.O. "What's wrong? You're not acting like yourself, Xiaomu..."
Xiaomu: "N-no, that's not true!"
Xiaomu: "I'm as energetic as ever!"
Xiaomu: "Now, come at me from anywhere!"
KOS-MOS: "The enemy has already been annihilated. Now that the destination has also been decided, I believe that statement is inappropriate."
Xiaomu: "So this is what I get for trying to force some cheerfulness! This useless robot!"
