YuukoYou're late.
YuukoThe Interchange should be beyond this area, but there's a wall preventing us from going any farther.
YuukoThere's no other way to around. If we don't do something quickly, we'll lose our quarry again!
Player...!
YuukoYou want me to calm down?
YuukoI'm worked up? Me?
YuukoMy father was murdered. And now I'm about to finally get my revenge.
YuukoOf course I'm worked up. What's wrong with that?
YuukoYou're just worried about me?
YuukoI didn't ask for your concern. Please don't be worried on my account.
YuukoYou are really are a... Happy-go-lucky person, aren't you? Surrounded by friends and always smiling like a fool...
YuukoI am grateful about how you... saved me before.
YuukoBut please don't put on this weird act of pretending like we're friends now.
YuukoI don't know what went on inside my heart but... as far as I know, you and I are not friends.
YuukoWhat was that? "Anyone who could say that to me could probably be my friend"?
YuukoWhat kind of flowery logic is that? Are you expecting to win me over with some sappy words?
PlayerThat's exactly what I planned. I planned to sweet-talk you. I planned to ravish you.
YuukoWhat?!
PlayerJust kidding.
YuukoWhat?!
Yuuko...Huh?
YuukoGood friend, you're so... I'm at a loss for words...
Familiar VoiceWell, well! If it isn't Acting President Kamishiro!
SuedouI hope you are doing well.
YuukoMister... Suedou?!
SuedouSurely there's no need for such caution. We all know each other here, no?
SuedouOh my, Player. Are you upset? Might it be the situation with Arata that's troubling you?
YuukoI heard about it from Player. What did you do to Arata?
SuedouI merely offered him a tiny bit of... assistance, in helping his wishes to come true.
SuedouConsequently, it also made my wishes come true. On the whole, it was very good for our relationship.
YuukoThat's no answer. What the heck happened to him?
SuedouLet's just say I assisted in his evolution.
SuedouHe wanted power... great power, at that.
SuedouBut even if such was available, there would be a limit as to how much his body could handle.
SuedouThus, I recommended assimilation with an Eater.
SuedouHe accepted my recommendation, assimilated with an Eater, and obtained great abilities because of it.
SuedouThe Eaters prey on data to store information.
SuedouArata can now absorb data and increase his power. His body is slowly being altered so that he can bear it.
SuedouIt appears he's gained some enhancements due to the sudden increase in his powers, but it's not anything to worry about. So just relax.
SuedouYuuko, the data from your assimilation with the Eater was very helpful.
YuukoHuh...?!
SuedouI'm glad I monitored your status on the sly.
SuedouWhen it happened to you, you were completely overtaken, and yet here you are... Have no concerns on that point!
SuedouAdjustments were made, and conditions set to clearly prioritize Arata.
SuedouWhat's this? Why are you so angry? And at what?
SuedouHe has undergone the evolution he wished for!
SuedouYou would deny him his wishes? As the real world does with its limits and impossibilities?
Player...!!!
YuukoMister Suedou... Were you aware of Miss Rie's true identity? And did you help her regardless?
SuedouI noticed that her psyche was something other than human.
SuedouBut there was no way I had of knowing that she was the Digimon known as Crusadermon.
SuedouMoreover, her actions have caused me quite a bit of consternation, myself.
SuedouShe is attempting to bring about not only the end of the human race, but of the world itself.
SuedouThis is quite out of line with my wishes. It's simple, reckless violence on her part.
SuedouMy vision is to see the evolution of our world, not its destruction.
SuedouTherefore, I have a proposal for the two of you.
SuedouAlthough our final goals may differ, at present, our objectives should be aligned...
SuedouWould you therefore consider a partnership?
YuukoA partnership... with you?
SuedouThe program she is using to control Digital Waves is a program I originally wrote.
SuedouAccordingly, it would be a trivial matter for me to render it harmless.
SuedouHowever, I would be completely helpless should Crusadermon attack me.
SuedouSo until our objective is met, I'd like to hire you as my bodyguards. What do you say?
YuukoPlayer... A partnership sounds like a good idea for now.
YuukoAt the very least he can be reasoned with. At least more than we can reason with Miss Rie, who might bring about the end of the world any moment.
SuedouMy, my, thank you! Well, then, let's get moving.
SuedouShall we proceed?
