Fushigi Yuugi Vol. 2
Chapter 7: Bewildered Heartbeat
Translation: Evie, Sachiko Nicholson, and Justin-san
Miaka: Huff huff huff huff
Hotohori: .....Miaka..... She is in pain to this extent...
Tamahome: I'm sorry, I was supposed to be responsible for her.
Hotohori: ...Tamahome! What happened in the city no da!? I will punish you
if you did anything!
Memory of Miaka: I'm in love with you!
Tamahome: I...I only saved her from the street punks.
Hotohori: ..........
Courtman: Your Majesty, you see now that Miko is getting very weak. She is at
the top of tension and fatigue....She is not mentally healthy, her nerves seem to
be weakened, but this is not the beginning of this situation.
Hotohori: Tell me, can she be healed!? Then what should I do....
Miaka: M...mom.......Onii...chan
Tamahome: Huh? Miaka....Do you......want to.........
Hotohori: ......go back to your own world! I want to talk with everyone.
Tamahome: Y-yes sir!
Miaka: Yui......chan........Haggendaz......Cozy Corner's
Oreiyu.......Morozoff's cheese cake, Lotteria's teriyaki burger.....I want to eat
them......
Nuriko: .........wait a minute~~~
* * *
Hotohori: What should we do?......"Good things?".....If we leave as she is, she
will become weaker.
Nuriko: Simply. Why doesn't she just go back to her own world?
Hotohori: That's right....But how can we find the way to her
world?.....Taiitsukun.......The "Four Gods Sky and Earth" that Taiitsukun gave us.
She knows how to return Miaka to her world! "Four Gods Sky and Earth", bring it
here!
Miaka: ......Huh?.....My head feels dizzy....Oh!
Memory of Miaka: I'm in love with you!
Mem. of Tamahome: That's too bad. Because I don't have those feelings for you.
Miaka: That's right. I....to Tamahome......I'm so stupid. I'm in love with
someone from the middle of a book. From now on how should I act when I see
him. As soon as I became aware of this love, I lost him.
Hotohori: Miaka
Miaka: Hotohori.......
Hotohori: Are you all right?
Miaka: sniff sniff Yeah....But I'm a little numb.
Hotohori: .......I found a way........for you to get back to your former world so
you can have peace of mind.
Miaka: Really!?
Hotohori: Yes. We must go to Taiitsukun's place no da. Only the Miko and 7
Seishi have to reach Daikyokuzan by themselves. The place is a little far but
Tamahome, Nuriko, and I will take you there.
Miaka: B-but without me, this country is in trouble. I should look for the 7
people.
Hotohori: That's OK no da. But now, thinking of your health is important. I'm
sorry to tell you something selfish. I want you to promise you will come back
when you recover your health. For the sake of this country.....and me.
Miaka: Hotohori....I....This person is truly worried about me...That's right. If
I return maybe I can forget about Tamahome. Next time I see Tamahome, I have
to apologize to him. I'm sorry for saying something unpleasant.
Nuriko: Why are you lamenting and trying to be cool!!? It's your fault for
jilting Miaka!!
Tamahome: Shut up, this has nothing to do with you!
Nuriko: Yes it does! If we let it go, the Emperor will not accept me!! You
have to apologize for whatever happened!! If you are a man..
Tamahome: You are selfish.
Nuriko: ....then take responsibility for what you hurt!! You're ugly because
you're jealous of the Emperor!!
Tamahome: Shut up! I intend to apologize! Who's being jealous? She hit the mark.
* Three days later *
Courtman1: Is it all right if you don't take any attendants with you?
Hotohori: I will make the trip with my own feet *
*He's been in many countries.
Courtman2: But, Your Majesty, even if you wear simple clothes, your
gracefulness will show.
Hotohori: Hahaha! Oh, you! It's not flattering because you're telling the truth!
Miaka: I wish he wasn't so narcissistic. We cannot see each
other yet.
Nuriko: How depressing.
Hotohori: Please take care of the castle while I'm away
Miaka: This is the first time I've ridden a horse. Although I've ridden on Grandma's
motorcycle.
Hotohori: I see. But, I'm glad you can walk.
Miaka: Yes, I'm sorry to worry you. Actually I still have a temperature. ......I-I'm upset.
Tamahome: I should say something.....
Miaka: It must be my job to cheer everyone up! "I bought this stick today!"
"Beautiful!" @
CLOP CLOP CLOP
@ Miaka is making a joke between the word for stick (Sutekki) and the word for
beautiful (Suteki)
* Later on *
Someone: It's getting dark. Let's set up camp here.
Miaka: Huff huff My temperature is rising. I forced myself too much.
Nuriko: Appear Miaka. You look like you are in pain. I'll tell you something
good. In the very middle of the forest there is a small spring.
Miaka: A spring?
Nuriko: Yeah! It has healing powers, I heard long ago it has these powers.
Maybe you should bathe there. You might feel better.
Miaka: Right, thanks! Keep it a secret from Tamahome and the others.
Tamahome: What are you doing!!?
Nuriko: This is a message from Miaka!: "I'm waiting at the spring in the
middle of the forest" That's all!
Tamahome: Why are you telling me that!!
Nuriko: If you're a man, don't make a woman ashamed! Bye!
Miaka: Ah! I found it. I'm glad. I won't cause worries for anybody else. There
are all kinds of things in books!
Oniichan: What's wrong? Yui-chan, are you OK!
Yui: I'm OK , my head's been aching for awhile.
Oniichan: Leave my little sister to us. You should go home. It's the crucial
time before the entrance exam.
Yui: The library closed a while ago.
Oniichan: I'll look for another place.
Yui: ...No! Miaka is my best friend! I'm not going home until I find
her!.....Suddenly, I feel better at ease. Again...! How strange. Blood then water....
Could this have something to do with Miaka?
Miaka: It's like a fresh, luke-warm hot spring. I'm becoming a little more
comfortable.
Tamahome: I didn't come because Miaka asked me, I just have some free
time...
~AAAAHHH!~
Miaka: Don't come near me!!! Help me s-somebody!
Tamahome: Miaka, what's wrong!!
Miaka: A big snake.......
Tamahome: Move out of the way, Miakaaaaaaa!!
~SPLASH~
Miaka: Ta....Tamahome.....Tamahome!? TAMAHOME!? He...he can't
be......dead.....It's m..my fault....WAAAAAHHHHHH! Tamahome was eaten by a
big snake!!!
Tamahome: Don't kill me!! (Like saying "Don't bury me yet")
Miaka: Ta....Tamahome?
Tamahome: Why do you think this is the snake? It's just a log that floated up to
the surface!
Miaka: Is that all!! Ahahahaha
Tamahome: AHAHAHA! Bye.....
Miaka: I'm naked!
Tamahome: I-I-I didn't see anything!! Only a little!
Miaka: You liar Now's my chance. (Ba-bump, ba-bump, ba-bump) Apologize
Miaka! For saying "I love you" say "I'm sorry," that it was a joke! I'm...
Tamahome: I'M SORRY!!
Miaka: Huh?
Tamahome: That time...I was wrong to say those harsh things. It was the first
time a girl had said "I love you" to me. I couldn't believe it. I couldn't think of a
good answer. For 17 years my head has been full of money. That's true now,
too. But I will accompany you to Taiitsukun's place without fail! Hurry up and get
better!
~DO-SA!!!
(sound effect of Nuriko falling out of the tree)~
Miaka: Tamahome......Nu-Nuriko!
Nuriko: Damn! He brushed her off again!
Miaka: What! I don't believe this! Aaaah! You tricked me.
Nuriko: O-ho-ho-ho Because you're gullible.
Miaka: Thank you!!
Nuriko: Hey, wait a minute! Let me go!
Miaka: But! I'm so glad...... It's not because he disliked me! Huh?
A-a man!!!!
Nuriko: Ho, ho ho ho ho! You found me out!! I'm a man!! What are you
going to do!?
Miaka: You may be G*A*Y......Even though you're a man, you are in love with
Hotohori! And you kissed Tamahome!
Nuriko: (babbling) I don't care about gender. I will go beyond love! Even
the Emperor looks feminine. Do you think we make a cute couple, Miaka? Are
you listening? If it's for love, it's OK to stray from the male path!
Miaka: My head hurts again. This will be a big shock for Tamahome. I wonder if we can
get to Taiitsukun's place safely....
Taiitsukun: .......Suzaku no Miko, huh?.....interesting......Don't think that you will
be able to reach Taiitsukun's place safely!
