Scrapped Princess (スクラップド・プリンセス)

I'm tired.

Yeah, yeah...

I said I'm tired!

Yeah, yeah.

I'm tired and I wanna have a hot meal

and climb into a nice, soft bed, and I want it right now!

Would you shut up already?!

Is this the mouth that's been spouting

all that self-centered garbage?!

All we do is ride in this stupid cart all day,

camp outside all night, and then get up and do it again.

My butt is killing me and I wanna take a bath!

Not till we've put some more distance

between us and Manurhin town.

Jerk.

Step down.

Oh brother...

Is that young girl with you Pacifica Cassul?

In the name of the god Mauser...

...she must be destroyed!

You better get behind me.

Barrier, obstruct them!

Damn you!

They're too strong!

Aren't you going to fight?

Huh?

You can't do anything, can you?

All you can do is watch. I get it now.

Pacifica!

See ya.

Who the hell was that guy?

C'mon, let's go.

You... You're the one...

You're the poison that will destroy the world!

Hey, Raquel...?

There's a village up ahead.

I'm sure they'll have some chicken feet for you to eat.

I want a fancy full-course meal with dessert.

Yeah, yeah. Your highness.

So... You're here.

The assassins I sent earlier have apparently failed.

The task before you now

is to lure that young girl to this place.

The god Mauser watches over your actions and blesses you.

I'm done eating.

Mm-hm.

Fancy full-course meal complete with dessert.

Ya gotta be kidding me!

That was delicious!

Aw! And it's such a shame 'cause it looks like

there's a little café in the town after this one...

Listen, Missy,

don't you understand the situation that you're in?

We can't afford to take a route

that might attract any undue attention.

Not until we leave the kingdom of Leinwan.

What's two times two?

Four.

Two times three?

Six.

Two times four?

Eight.

So, what's two times five?

Ten!

Wow! You're amazing!

It's no big deal.

I still don't get it at all.

If you use eggs to count,

I'm sure you'll pick it up right away.

Really?

Hey, have you learned all your lines yet

for the play next week?

I have 'em down pat! It's no big deal.

Wow, you're amazing!

Pacifica...

How about you, Shannon? Do you understand?

You are to address me as "Your Highness," not "Missy"!

You got that?!

Now hand over that dumpling!

Hey, stop it!

Some princess you are, you mangy stray cat!

Whatever! Just hand it over!

--Huh? It's Pacifica! -- As if!

Huh? Ah!

I'm in paradise...

We're really sorry about damaging your rice plants.

Don't worry about it. It's quite all right.

I understand that you're all friends with my daughter.

Yes, we met her in Manurhin Town.

What a coincidence, running into Auntie Diana like that.

I might just have to help myself to a bath later on.

Now, wait a minute.

Hmm?

Oh, how adorable! Is she yours, Diana?

Yes, she is.

Oh no!

I have to go check on the bath.

Can you look after her for a while?

Of course.

Thank you.

Shannon, you made Pacifica cry all the time, too.

I suppose I did.

Suddenly, we both had a new kid sister on our hands.

I didn't know what to make of her.

And now, our baby sister is 15 years old.

Honestly, it's been forever since my last bath.

How many years has been since we last saw you?

It's been about three, right?

I suppose it has.

You know, I was born right here in this village.

Wow, really?

I have to admit; we were really surprised.

We never expected to run into someone

from Manurhin Town out here.

We'll find you some dinner later.

Perhaps, one of those egg dishes you're so fond of.

Eggs? Really?!

But first, could you help me with something, Pacifica?

Is your father doing well?

Well, he... Daddy passed away not too long ago.

I see...

Daddy really appreciated everything you did

to help us kids, Auntie.

I mean, after Mommy died,

he turned to you for everything, remember?

When I had a fever, you'd stay up with me all night

just to make sure that I'd be okay.

And today, I drop in out of nowhere and use your bath.

A church ?

I always come here and ask them

to share their eggs with me.

Would you be willing to help me carry them back home?

Auntie Diana?!

She's not here?

Neither is Pacifica...

You don't suppose that... Auntie...?

I don't know. Let's find them.

Huh?

Oh! I remember you! We met you earlier.

You haven't seen that girl

you were talking to before, have you?

Couldn't say.

Oh, yeah!

The soy sauce dumplings they make in this town

are really delicious!

So, this is the girl.

The girl destined to usher in the destruction of the world

when she turns 16.

The "Scrapped Princess."

No way...

Well done. You may leave us now.

But... Wait!

Why, Auntie?

I had no idea that you were the Scrapped Princess.

What I'm doing is for the good of the kingdom,

for the good of our lord god Mauser!

You've only yourself to blame!

How foolish of her.

There's no need to feel shame for performing a good deed.

There's not a single place in this world

that will take you in, for you are the Scrapped Princess,

the one Saint Grendel spoke of in his revelation.

You are the great evil that will destroy the world.

In the name of the god Mauser,

I shall purge the Scrapped Princess.

Thunder, rumble in the heavens,

brandish your whip of light,

and show us now the power of your wrath!

The man you call "Father"

gave his life in order to protect you.

As long as you continue to live, there will be more and more

people who will flock to the aid of our god Mauser.

Your very existence on this Earth is a sin.

You should never've been born in the first place,

for you were destined to be cast away immediately.

You have my sincerest apologies, sir,

but I'm afraid I'm going to have to put you

out of commission.
