1. Duty of Care

6 lines
Yulia

Every person is born with one burning question in their mind.

What is my purpose in this life?

And the question courses through the veins of our people.

And I say, the answer to this question is simple.

We are humanity's last line of defense and will liberate this decadent world from corruption!

Long live humanity!

Eriri

That kid is heading in the right direction. The mob is getting thicker.

Sova

Hard to say. There's a lot gathering around the loudspeakers. Everyone, put on your headphones.

Awakener

How come she isn't brainwashed?

Snezhana

Maybe kids' minds are too pure, or maybe she just doesn't understand what Yulia is going on about.

If she doesn't understand, she can't be brainwashed or controlled.

Eriri

I have a simpler explanation. She's wearing headphones too.

Sova

Look. They've spotted her again.

We've got to protect her.

Deena

Get lost! I don't need your help!

Snezhana

Mind your language, kid...

Deena

【&$%@$&#!】

Snezhana

Hey! Wait till I get my hands on you, I'll teach you some manners!

Deena

Haha! Your true personality is showing!

Snezhana

WHY YOU LITTLE, !!!

Snezhana

Argh! Where'd she run off to now?!

Eriri

Snezhana, you know you look like a crazy kindergarten teacher right now, right?

Snezhana

It's because I'm so worried! If she doesn't calm down, she'll end up...

Sova

It'll be fine. I guess you didn't notice, but Awakener has vanished too.

Eriri

What?

Sova

It's okay. Awakener just sent me his location. He's on her trail.

Snezhana

Well, let's go catch up to them!

Eriri

Uh... You think we should... keep a closer eye on Awakener in future?

Deena

Stay back!

Awakener

No! I'm here to protect you!

Deena

I don't need anyone to protect me.

Awakener

But what if I want to?

Deena

You... Whatever. I don't have to talk to you.

Awakener

You really hate grown-ups, huh?

But what IS a grown-up, anyway? Someone who's turned 18?

But I'm not even 18 myself.

Deena

Blah blah blah! Shut your face!

Awakener

...

Sure.

Deena

SHUT UP!!!
