[k] @Space Ishtar The part where you said someone named Ashtart wants to sacrifice [%1]. [k] @Space Ishtar I'm guessing that's the name[sr]of Space Shinkageryu's boss? [k] ?1:(I'm pretty sure I never mentioned Shinkageryu before...) ?2:(How did Space Ishtar know about them...?) ?! [charaFace A 4] @Billy the Flash Ohhh, that. I musta been so caught up in the battle I didn't even realize I was runnin' my mouth. [k] [charaFace A 0] @Billy the Flash You got it. Space Shinkageryu wants to use that there Master for some kinda ritual. [k] @Billy the Flash Least, that's what the boss's right-hand man says.[sr]I don't know what Lady Ashtart might really be up to. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @X Hmm, a ritual that sacrifices a Master, huh... There's so many possibilities it's hard to narrow them down. [k] @X But since Masters haven't lived in this universe since ancient times, I'd guess the ritual itself must be something only an archaeologist would know.

[k] @Billy the Flash Beats me. It looked like she was headin' somewhere in her space fortress, but that's all I know. [k] @Billy the Flash I'd expect the little [&cowpoke:lady] over there[sr]oughta have a better idea than I do. [k] ?1:I think she said something about going to a forbidden zone... ?!

Thanks for the hot tip. [k] @Space Ishtar Of course, that doesn't really help us much, seeing how there's dozens upon dozens of forbidden zones in the Servantverse, but I guess it's better than nothing. Barely. [k] [charaFace B 28] @Space Ishtar Well, at least we know now that this Ashtart lady's the one who brought [%1] to our universe... [k] @Space Ishtar ...and that she's the boss of Space Shinkageryu. [k] @Space Ishtar It would only make sense for her to know how to get you back home, since she brought you here in the first place. Obviously she's got a way. [k] ?1:You know, that's an excellent point! Good thinking! [charaFace B 1] @Space Ishtar Well of course♡ I haven't been a bounty hunter since I was fourteen for nothing, after all☆ [k] ?2:I knew you'd come through, Space Ishtar the hero! [charaFace B 9] @Space Ishtar M-me, a hero...? [k] [charaFace B 8] @Space Ishtar Uh, y-yeah, that's me. Ishtar the bounty hunter, friend to justice and money everywhere. [k] ?!

[k] @Billy the Flash If ya let me go, I'd be willin' ta give ya the boardin' codes for the Dark Maanna Space Fortress. [k] @Billy the Flash It'd let you walk right into Space Shinkageryu's headquarters without so much as a “How d'ya do?” Whatcha say to that?

[k] @Billy the Flash I ain't sellin' shit. I'm just as sure as the sunrise that she can beat you and take that there Master back no problem. [k] @Billy the Flash Either way, it ain't got nothin' ta do with me no more. I'm gettin' outta Space Shinkageryu for good. [k] @Billy the Flash I don't got no reason to hang onto this Saber Badge, and there ain't no way Lord Munenori'd let me stick around now that I've lost anyway. [k] @Billy the Flash So, whadda ya say? Seems like a pretty good deal to me, given what you're ultimately workin' towards. [k] @Space Ishtar ...It's not up to me. [%1]'s the one you tried to capture, so [&he:she] should be the one to decide. [k] @Space Ishtar What do you think, [%1]? Do we let[sr]him go, or tie him up and leave him to rot in the desert? [k] ?1:The more information we have, the better. ?2:As long as he promises to behave himself from now on... ?!

[k] @Billy the Flash Now then, the Space Shinkageryu don't take too kindly to deserters, so I'd better make myself scarce. [k] [charaFace A 0] @Billy the Flash Y'all do know what you're gettin' into, right? 'Cause they ain't gonna be goin' easy on y'all now that you beat me.

[k] ?1:They're that bad? ?! @X Oh yeah. They've got their hands in all sorts of evil pies, no matter how big or how small. [k] @X They're also really secretive. So much so that these mohawk guys probably didn't even know they were working for them. [k] @X That probably goes for all the Servants fighting over those Saber Badges, really. [k] @X They have no idea that getting one of those badges means they've effectively joined Space Shinkageryu. [k] ?1:That really is devious... ?2:Sounds like the sorta thing she'd come up with... ?! [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 19] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Space Ishtar ... [k] [charaFace B 18] @Space Ishtar Hey, [%1].

[k] ?1:What sort of amendment? ?2:What'd you have in mind? ?! [charaFace B 20] @Space Ishtar Like, say, protecting you until you can return safely to your own universe. [k] @Space Ishtar I mean, the Space Shinkageryu[sr]themselves are after you, right? [k] @Space Ishtar With all the wanted criminals that are bound to come after you, it'll be bounty heaven. [k] @Space Ishtar You can pay me a fair rate for my services, and the bounties ought to pay for any expenses incurred. [k] @Space Ishtar Basically, you scratch my back, I scratch yours. [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_70 1.0] @Space Ishtar What do you say? Of course, if you're not thrilled with the idea of being bait, I'll understand.
