CLAN - Episode 8
Shizuru: Damn it! That jerk Libal is making fun of us…! What’s the plan, Rui?
Rui: …I already got one. I’m going to defeat Messiah in the Messiah Cup and become the champion.
...Then he’s going to tell me everything he knows about my past, then we’ll see.
Lance: But, even if you defeat Messiah, if we don’t save him from the Chaos World…
We won’t be able to get our hands on the Second Generation Chaostone, will we?
Rui: I dunno about that.
Lance: Whaa?!
Rui: I'm only interested in my own past. I just want to find out what Messiah knows about “it.” That's all I care about right now.
Shizuru: So are you fine with us not getting that second generation Chaostone?
Rui: We’re not sure that this Second Generation Chaostone can help me regain my memories, right?
Besides, we don’t know if what that bastard Libal said is true anyway. [1]
Shizuru: You’re right but…
Rui: Right now, the closest thing to my memories is not the Chaostone, but Messiah.
So, I’m going to make him tell me everything he knows about me.
Even if Messiah’s chaos gets completed after it, I couldn't care less.
Shizuru: ...But if Messiah knows something about your past, that would mean he isn’t a stranger to you huh?
Rui: ...Did you forget? We, Slam Days, are a group in search of freedom.
Lost memories, our past. If we don’t regain our true selves, we can never truly be free.
Lance: Our true self…
Rui: Lance, Shizuru. You get it right? We’ve all come together to reclaim our lost memories and our past.
Lance: …Yeah, that's right. I'm fighting to regain my body and memories from Q.
Shizuru: ...Yeah. I gotta get my past back too…. I need to know too. We can’t just turn a blind eye to it.
Rui: I feel the same way too. I’m fighting to get my past and memories back. Once I do,
I can finally quit being a Kamen Rider.
Shizuru: Rui….
Rui: You guys can go home now. I don't need anyone slowing me down. I'll handle the rest by myself.
Lance: And he's gone…
Shizuru: Geez, when Rui becomes like that, there’s no way we can make him budge. What should we do?
Lance: We can only do what we can right now.. We need a clue that could help us get through this situation.
Hm….? This is….
Assaulton: Hey hey hey Rui.
Was that really okay with you~? Saying stuff like that.
Rui: ...Whatever. I’ll just reclaim my past and lost memories myself.
I don’t need their help.
Assaulton: But these guys are the ones who finally made you feel at home, right?
You're not alone anymore thanks to them, right?
Rui: …Why have you been acting like you know stuff?
Assaulton: Ooooww! Let me go!
Rui: What do you know about me? What could a mere illusion created by the Chaos World understand?
Assaulton: You're hurting me, you're hurting meee!
….Cough, cough.
…I’d hate to be misunderstood, Rui. I’m not your enemy.
That said, I’m not completely your ally either.
Rui: Tell me everything you know.
Assaulton: Even if I told you, would you believe me? You were so skeptical that you didn't even trust what Libal said.
Rui: .....!
Assaulton: Libal said it himself, didn’t he? That the Second Generation Chaostone has the power to interfere with memories.
Haven’t you also gotten your hands on a Chaostone that’s capable of restoring your old memories?
Of course, I can’t say that all Chaostones are related to your memories.
But isn’t gathering them all just the beginning? Especially if you want to recover those memories you’re curious about.
Rui: …….
Assaulton: Hey, while we're busy dilly-dallying, the main event is about to start! Rui, get ready!
Rui: …….!
[Back to Reality....]
Shizuru: Oh, my clothes are back to normal!
Lance: …Hey Shizuru. Since I was in the Chaos World a while ago, does that mean that I also visited this place before?
Shizuru: Yeah. There's a door to the Chaos World inside this house, and we entered the Mission Stadium world from it.
Lance: …I see. That must have been when it happened.
Shizuru: ?
Lance: It seems my Rider Phone was busy analyzing the password for Messiah's PC.
Shizuru: For real?!
Lance: Q probably set it up when all of you came inside this room.
Shizuru: So if we use that password to access the PC, we might be able to find something!
Lance: That’s right! [2]
Shizuru: Let’s check it out!
Messiah: Hey, RUI.
Are you going to compete in the Messiah Cup?
Rui: …Yeah.
Messiah: Looks like your companions who were here just a moment ago are not around, huh?
Rui: ...I'm fine on my own. If I win, you have to leave this world.
And tell me everything that you know.
Messiah: Hey, hey, didn't you say the same thing earlier before losing to me? Well, as long as I can play games with you, I'm all good.
Fine, I’ll accept your deal, but let me tell you mine first.
Rui: ...That is?
Messiah: Rui, if you lose to me, you’ll be stuck with me in this world forever and become my gaming partner.
Rui: ...As you wish.
???: Hahaha!
Are you sure about that? Making a promise like that?!
Rui: …Libal!
Libal: That sounds interesting, maybe I’ll join in as part of Messiah’s clan.
Rui, I will trap you in this world!
Rui: ……!

Translation Note:
[1] Rui called Libal as ヤロー(yarou) which is a more aggressive/stronger insult instead of Shizuru’s いけすかない (ikesukanai)
[2] Will be highlighting in italic all of the english word Lance says.
