The screen fades to black to the sound of punches.
The screen illuminates showing Zidane and Blank wearing the armour from two knights who have been knocked out.
Blank
Finished changing, Zidane?
Zidane
Yeah, but this helmet...
It kinda smells...ブランク
なに言ってんだよ！俺のメットなんか、
ちょっとじゃなくって、すごく臭いし……
ポケットの底には、
ビスケットのカスがたまっているし…… Blank
What are you talkin' about!?
My helmet totally reeks!
My armour's way too big...
And my back's real itchy...
The boots are wet...
My gloves are all slimy...
There's cookie crumbs in
my pockets...Zidane
Okay, I get the picture...
You still have the package, right?Blank
Don't worry! I won't screw up!
ジタン
よし！じゃあオレはガーネット姫の
ティーカップに眠り薬を入れてくるぜ！ Zidane
Alright! First, I'll go
pour some sleep potion into
Princess Garnet's teacup!
Blank
And I've got a special
something for the lovely queen!
Blank walks over to the knocked out knights.
ブランク
クックックッ、気持ち良さそうに
おネンネしていらっしゃる！ Blank
Hehehe. They're
sleeping so soundly!
They proceed to the next room.
ブランク
この階段の上に、
王室の観劇席があるということだ！ Blank
According to recon...
...the royal box should be
right above these stairs!ブランク
おっ！そろそろマーカスがコーネリアの
屋敷へ忍び込むシーンになったみたいだな！
芝居が終わらないうちに
さっさと仕事を済ませようぜ！！ Blank
Uh-oh! The scene where Marcus sneaks into
Cornelia's chamber is about to start!
Let's get this over with
before the finale, okay?Zidane runs up the stairs, while at the same time a hooded girl runs out the double doors nearby. They stop in front of each other.
Zidane
(Hmm? She sure is dressed funny...)
Hooded Girl
Umm...
Would you please let me pass?
Zidane
Hmm...
(Let her pass)
Wait. Hold on a sec!
Haven't we met before?"Hooded Girl
No, I do not know you...
ジタン
いいや、オレがこんなカワイイ子、
見逃すわけがないんだけどなあ……
Zidane
Hmm...
Maybe you're right... I'd never let
someone as pretty as you get away.
Say, you wouldn't--Blank
Hey, what's goin' on,
Zidane?
Hooded Girl
I...
I must go!The hooded girl runs off down the stairs.
Blank
Who the heck was that!?
Zidane
Get up, Blank!
That was Princess Garnet!
Zidane and Blank chase after the hooded girl. The view changes to a set of large stairs where two jesters, Zorn and Thorn, are in conversation.
Thorn
Our heads, Queen Brahne will have!
They run up opposite stairs and meet at an entrance to another room.
They proceed to the room where Zidane and Blank were moments ago.
Thorn
The right way, that is not!
Zorn
I know it is not the right way!
Thorn
Wonder, I sometimes do.
Zorn
N-Now is not the time
to wonder!
Thorn
Hurry to Queen Brahne,
must we!
Zorn
We must hurry to
Queen Brahne!
They run up the stairs to where Zidane and Blank met the hooded girl.
Zorn
That is not the right way!
Thorn
N-Not the right way, I know!
Thorn
Know I really do!!!
Zorn
I really wonder sometimes.
Thorn
Th-The time to wonder,
now is not!
Zorn
We must hurry and tell
Her Majesty!
Thorn
Hurry to see Her
Majesty, we must!
They head outside to Queen Brahne's seat but are intercepted by the Captain of the Knights of Pluto.
Thorn
See the queen, we must!
プレート隊隊長
いまは誰も通すなと言われている！
また後でやってまいれ！！ Captain of the Knights of Pluto
Her Majesty is busy!
Come back later!
Beatrix
Is it an emergency?
Thorn
An emergency, it is!
Zorn
A veritable emergency of
terrible urgency!
Beatrix
Very well. I'll see what I can do.
Thorn
Very grateful, we'll be!
Zorn
We'll be very grateful!
プレート隊隊長
うぬぬぬぬ、ベアトリクスめ
でしゃばったことをぬかしおって～！ Captain of the Knights of Pluto
Grrr! Curse that Beatrix!
Always trying to one-up me!
Beatrix
So, what exactly is the problem?
Zorn
Her Royal Highness...
Beatrix
I see.
Wait right here.
Beatrix walks over to Queen Brahne.
ブラネ女王
芝居を楽しんでいる最中じゃ、
用があったら後にいたせ！ Queen Brahne
No interruptions!
Can't you see I'm watching the show!?
Beatrix
Your Majesty, I'm afraid
Princess Garnet has--
ブラネ女王
そういえば、さっきから
ガーネットの姿が見えんな？ Queen Brahne
Ah, yes... She did leave
her seat a while ago.
ベアトリクス
はっ、先程、ガーネット様が国宝のペンダントを
持ち去り、どこかへと足早に去られたようでございます Beatrix
Your Majesty, it seems that Princess Garnet
has run off with the Royal Pendant.
Queen Brahne
Well, of all the...
What could she be thinking!?
General Beatrix!Queen Brahne
And, Captain...uh...
Captain Steiner!Steiner
Yes, Your Majesty!
Queen Brahne
Go find Garnet!
Beatrix
At once, Your Majesty!
Steiner heads back inside the castle.
Steiner
Knights of Pluto!
ASSEMBLE!!!
Huh?
Where is everybody!?"The two armourless knights from before run into the room.
Blutzen, Pluto Knight II
Captain, sir!
Kohel, Pluto Knight III
All present and accounted for, sir!
スタイナー
なんだ～、貴様ら～っ！
たった、ふたりだけじゃないか～っ！
はやく着替えて、
姫さまをお探しするのだ～～～っ！！ Steiner
What are you talking about!?
There's only two of you!
Where are the other six!?
Why, you useless good-for-nothings!
I bring orders from the queen!
Get dressed and go find
Princess Garnet!Steiner runs down the large stairs and exits the castle through the main gate.
スタイナー
しかし、芝居が終わる前に姫さまを見つけないと
ブラネ女王にこっぴどく叱られてしまう……
しかも、またベアトリクス達の
笑いぐさにされてしまうではないか！ Steiner
The play seems to be a hit!
But if we fail to find the princess
before the curtain falls, Her Majesty
will be most displeased...
And we will be the laughing stock of
Beatrix and her retinue!Steiner climbs up a large spiral staircase to the top of the left tower.
Steiner
Whew... Fatigue rears its ugly head.
No! I must persevere!
The princess must be found!Zidane is seen in the distance chasing Garnet on top of the right tower.
スタイナー
賊に追い掛けられているご様子っ！
いま、お助けに参りますぞ～～～っ！！ Steiner
Wait! Over there!
It's Princess Garnet!
Being hounded by brigands!
Fear not, Princess! Your knight is coming!Garnet grabs a cord from a decorative banner and swings towards the theatre ship landing successfully. Zidane and Steiner follow suit and swing towards the hooded girl. Zidane lands successfully nearby, however, Steiner crashes into the side of the ship.
Zidane
Huh?
Where'd the princess go?
Garnet falls from above and lands on top of Zidane, knocking him to the ground.
Garnet runs past and knocks the band members, spinning them out, then continues into the next room. She then runs past and knocks Ruby, also spinning her around, and then stops soon after.
Ruby
Whoa! Whut in tarnation!?
Hold yer horses, there!
Whut kinda cattle you
chasin', darlin'?
You should at least
say yer sorry!白いフードの女の子
も、申し訳ありません
事情があり、急いでいたものですから…… Hooded Girl
Please pardon me.
I was in a hurry, you see...
ルビィ
もぉ～、ウチこれから
舞台に出る用意せなあかんのに！ Ruby
And here I am, fixin' to
get ready fer my big entrance!
Ruby
Hey, Zidane!
Did you see the way she hit me!?
This cowgirl's wilder than
a buckin' bronco!Zidane
Just let me talk to her, Ruby!
Ruby
Come again, pardner!?
Did you hear
what I was sayin'!?"Garnet runs off down the stairs.
Zidane
Ruby!
We'll talk later!
Zidane chases after Garnet into the next room.
ジタン
（ま、計画とは違ったけど
これで、誘拐作戦もバッチリだぜ！） Zidane
Whew... Well, it looks like
you've finally made up your mind.
(Wow. We really had to improvise.
But hey, we got her!)Hooded Girl
Do you...
do you work on this theatre ship?
Zidane
(Aww...
So she figured it out, huh?)
Hooded Girl
As you have no doubt suspected...
...the truth is that...
I am actually... 白いフードの女の子
アレクサンドリア女王の
ガーネット＝ティル＝アレクサンドロスなのです Hooded Girl
Princess Garnet Til Alexandros,
heir to the throne of Alexandria.
ガーネット
いますぐ、わたくしを
誘拐してくださらないかしら？ Garnet
I have a favour I wish
to ask of you...
I wish to be kidnapped...
right away.Zidane
H-Huh!?
I don't... I mean...
They hear a knocking noise in the distance.
Princess! Where are you!?
Garnet
Please... They've come for me!
Zidane
Aha...
So that's what's going on...
Alright!
Leave them to me!Garnet
Thank you.
You have my gratitude.
Alright then, Your Highness!
ジタン
今から、わたくしめが
あなた様を誘拐させていただきます！ Zidane
I shall hereby do my
best to kidnap you!
Cinna runs into the room.
シナ
なにモタモタしてるずら！
はやくこっちへ来るずら！！ Cinna
What're you two doin'?
Come on, this way!
ジタン
ガーネット姫、心配しなくてもいいよ、
こいつは仲間のシナってやつだ！ Zidane
Don't worry, Princess.
It's my friend Cinna!
Garnet
Oh, really?
I am sorry.
You startled me.ジタン
でもまあ、そのツラじゃ
ガーネット姫が驚くのも無理はないぜ Zidane
Well, with a face like his,
I'd be pretty shocked, too!"
シナ
なんだと！これでも毎朝、
キチンと手入れしているずらっ！ Cinna
Man, that hurts! I wash
every morning, you know!
They hear another knocking noise.
Zidane
Alright,
we'll follow you!
Zidane, Garnet and Cinna run into the meeting room, then moments later Steiner enters the room they were just in.
Princess?
Princess...
Princess!
Princess...?
PRINCESS!!!?
Princess?One of the knights enters the room.
Meanwhile, back in the meeting room.
ジタン
おい、シナ！
こっちへ来ても行き止まりじゃないのか？ Zidane
Hey, Cinna!
This is a dead end!
Cinna
Hehehe.
I thought this might happen...
Open!
Sesame!Cinna pushes the table over, revealing a secret hatch that leads to the room below.
Cinna
So I set up this
escape hatch!
Cinna
Come on!
Jump inside!
They all jump into the escape hatch moments before Steiner enters the room.
Steiner
The princess must be down there!
Pluto Knight
I-I'll go first, sir!
The knight jumps into the hatch but gets stuck at the entry.
Steiner
Hey!!! What do you think you're doing!?
Pluto Knight
Captain, sir!
I'm stuck, sir!
Steiner
Grrrr! Blast it!!!
Steiner runs out of the room.
Pluto Knight
Hehehe.
He bought it!
The scene changes, and we see Cinna, Garnet then Zidane jump down into the engine room.
ジタン
なかなか身軽だなあ、お姫さま！
思わずホレちまいそうだぜっ！！ Zidane
Wow, you're really athletic, Princess.
I think I'm falling for you!
ガーネット
覚悟を決めて城を飛び出したからには
これくらいのことなんて平気ですわ Garnet
This is nothing. I have been training
to escape the castle, after all.
Zidane
What a waste.
If only you weren't a princess...
Garnet
We have no time for idle banter.
Come, let us move on!
As they enter the next room, Steiner also enters by sliding down a pole from the room above.
スタイナー
姫さま！このスタイナーが
お助けに参上いたしましたぞ！ Steiner
Aha!
Princess! I, Steiner,
have come to your rescue!The knight who got stuck in the hatch also enters the room.
Pluto Knight
You needn't worry, Your Highness!
スタイナー
いいぞ～！プルート隊、
始まって以来のチームワークだ！！ Steiner
Good work! This will be remembered
as the Pluto Knights' finest hour!
？？？？（プルート隊ＮＯ．？）
な～んてね、大丈夫だよ、
俺達が無事に誘拐させていただきます Pluto Knight
Just relax, Princess.
We'll get you outta here!
Steiner
WHAT!!!?
You're not one of my knights!A battle begins between Zidane, Cinna and Blank (the Pluto Knight) vs. Steiner.
Villains! How dare you trick the princess!
I'll never give up!Steiner uses a sword attack that destroys Blank's armour, and releases all the oglops he was concealing.
Get these oglops offa me!
Zidane
Now's our chance! Come on!
Zidane and Garnet run off into the next room while the others are distracted by the oglops. The scene then changes to the ongoing performance.
レア王
今宵はいよいよ、我が娘コーネリア姫と
シュナイダー王子との祝言！
これでシュナイダー王子は我が意のまま、
そしてサスーン国も思いのままよ！
King Leo
Tonight, I shall finally see my daughter
Cornelia betroth'd to Prince Schneider!
And then Prince Schnieder and his
kingdom will be mine!
Gwahahahaha!King Leo's henchmen walk onto the stage, seen restraining Marcus.
Benero
We have caught an intruder!
レア王
いかにそなたが
コーネリアのことを愛していようとも
また、いかにコーネリアが
そなたのことを愛していたとしても
貴様のような身分の低いものとの
結婚を認めるわけにはいかぬのだ！！
King Leo
Why, my poor Marcus!
Hark, lad. No matter how much
thou dost treasure Cornelia...
...no matter how deeply she might
believe she doth love thee!
...never shall I see her
marry a peasant such as thee!
When yon bell strikes three...
Under the axe thou shall be!Meanwhile, Zidane and Garnet run into another room.
Garnet
What now?
We cannot go any further!
Cinna also enters the room.
Cinna
Zidane! Get on Number Two!
Zidane
Okay! Princess Garnet, this way!
Zidane and Garnet get on one of the stage lifts, elevating them to the stage above. At the same time, Steiner runs into the room.
Steiner then punches Cinna sending him spinning across the room.
Steiner also gets on a stage lift and is also elevated to the live performance above.
Baku
(P-Princess Garnet!?)
Zidane
(Guys! Just improvise!)
Steiner
Ho? What's all this?
Marcus breaks free from the henchmen and approaches Garnet.
Zidane
(Marcus is Cornelia's lover!)
Zidane
(Yeah, you're doing great!)
Garnet
(Ahaha. I have studied drama, you know.)
バクー
（よし！しばらくは芝居を続けよう
ブラネ女王も観てるはずだしな！） Baku
(Okay, guys. Let's keep going.
Brahne's still watchin', after all!)
コーネリア
もう離れたくありません
このまま、わたくしをどこかへ連れて行ってくださいまし！ Cornelia
Oh, Marcus! I missed you so!
I wish never to leave thy side.
Prithee, lead me from this place!ジタン
どうだい？レア王さんよ
ふたりの仲を認めてやってくれよ！ Zidane
See, King Leo?
Thou shouldst give them thy blessing!
レア王
コーネリアは、この、
シュナイダー王子と結婚するのだ！
King Leo
Never leave his side, thou sayest?
Foolish banter! I'll not allow it!
Cornelia shall marry none other
than this man--Prince Schneider!
Is that not so, Prince Schneider?Steiner
M-Marry the princess? Me!?
King Leo
Aye! And this traitorous
crew, I will put to death!
Zidane and Marcus attack the henchmen, causing them to flee in response.
King Leo
Pray, sweet daughter,
come home to the castle with me.
Cornelia
Nay, Father!
I shan't return!
レア王
コーネリア……
もう、これ以上、父を困らせないでくれ
おまえの為を思ってこその
結婚なのだ……、分かってくれ…… King Leo
Cornelia...
Trouble me no more.
This wedding is for thine own welfare.
Be mindful of that.マーカス
今こそ、年貢の納め時！
親の仇、そして、愛するコーネリアのため……
Marcus
Not if I can help it!!!
Now is my moment of vengeance!
For my parents, and for my love, Cornelia...
I shall cut thee down!Marcus takes his sword and as he thrusts it towards King Leo, Garnet stands between them and is stabbed by the sword.
コーネリア
マー、、、カス、ごめんね
こんな人でも、わたくしの父なのです…… Cornelia
Mar...cus, forgive me.
I still love my father...
コーネリア
父上、わがままばかりで申し訳ありませんでした
でも、どうかマーカスを許してくださいまし…… Cornelia
Prithee, forgive my selfishness, Father,
and spare my sweet Marcus...
マーカス
なんてことだ！
もう、コーネリアの声は聞けないのか！
もう、コーネリアのあたたかい
温もりには触れられないのか！
Marcus
What have I done!?
Am I never to hear her loving voice again!?
Am I cursed never again to feel
her soft touch!?
O, cruel fate!
Thou hast robbed me of all I treasure!The view changes to Queen Brahne watching the show from above.
Queen Brahne
Oh, my!
This year's show is splendid!
Waaaaaaa!
Why did she have to die!? Why!?
(Now, where could Garnet be?)
Boo-hoo-hoooo!!!The view changes to Vivi and Puck who are down near the spectators.
パック
これでこそ、頑張って屋根の上を通ってきた
かいがあるってもんだ、なぁ、おい！
Puck
I'm glad we climbed all the way
over here. How 'bout you, huh?
Uh-oh! Look out!They are chased off by two Pluto Knights.
Haagen, Pluto Knight VIII
Stop, you!
Weimar, Pluto Knight VII
Come back, trespassers!
Vivi trips over, but gets up and runs off.
Puck
Fool! I'm outta here!
Haagen, Pluto Knight VIII
Fury!!!
Weimar, Pluto Knight VII
Come back here!
Vivi and the two Pluto Knights run onto the stage during the ongoing performance.
Vivi
Don't come any closer!
Vivi casts a fire spell to defend himself, but it hits Garnet causing her to throw off her hood and reveal her identity.
バクー
ジタン！そろそろ潮時だ！
これで劇団タンタラスもおしめえだな！ Zidane
Princess Garnet!
Let's get outta here!
Steiner
What...
What is going on!?
ガーネット
スタイナー！もう、これ以上、
わたくしを追いかけないでください！！ Garnet
Steiner! Don't follow
me anymore!
Haagen, Pluto Knight VIII
Captain, sir!
We await your orders, sir!
スタイナー
う～～～～～～～～
～～～～～～～～～
～～～～～～～～～
～～～～～～～～～
～～～～～～～～む
Steiner
Hmmm...
Well...
Umm...
Errr...
Princess! I'm afraid
I cannot comply!Garnet
Stubborn as always,
aren't you?
Zidane
Come on, Princess. Let's ditch
Sir Rustalot and get outta here!
Zidane walks over to Vivi.
Zidane
Hey, kid...
You okay!?
Vivi
Y-Yeah.
I just tripped, that's all...
Steiner
Princess, I cannot allow you to go!
Seize them at once!
A battle begins between Zidane, Marcus, Garnet and Vivi vs. Steiner and the two Pluto Knights.
Haagen
My fury ends here...
Haaagen flees from the battle.
Weimar
I'm gonna be late for my date!
Weimer flees from the battle.
Steiner
H-Hey! Come back here!
Steiner
Bah! Only a flesh wound!
Meanwhile, at the bridge of the theatre ship.
Cinna
Stabilisers configured!
Blank
Engine room is ready to go!
The theatre ship rises and starts to fly off. Queen Brahne shouts some commands towards the knights, and harpoons are launched into the theatre ship, causing it to knock into several buildings. A large cannon is revealed shooting a fire-ball shaped "bomb", which lands on the stage behind Steiner.
Zidane
Hey, look behind you!
Garnet
Please, Steiner! Behind you!
Steiner
I'll not fall for such an old trick!
Steiner
Surrender at once!
Steiner
I'll not fall for such an old trick!
The bomb grows larger and larger until it finally explodes in a huge puff of smoke. However, the theatre ship is still intact, although visibly damaged, and flies off into the distance.
Cinna
We're gonna crash!!!
The theatre ship descends through the mist clouds and crashes into a dark forest below. A giant explosion is witnessed from afar.
ブラネ女王
まだ子供だと思っていたのに
まさか、あんな大胆なことを考えていたとは……
Queen Brahne
Garnet...
I never imagined you would do
such a thing. Perhaps you're not
such a helpless little girl anymore...
Zorn!
Thorn!
Is our little
experiment ready?Zorn
Yes, Your Majesty.
It is combat-ready!
Thorn
Easily terminate Princess Garnet,
it can, Your Majesty.
Queen Brahne
I need her alive!
Bring her back
at once!
