Well, apparently I've discovered that
I can take these yawn-filled days
And turn them into movies
I've found the secret and trick to it
Under this sky where we don't get along
I closed my heart and locked it
That's how I've managed to live my life
And the melodies now overlap
I wanted a sign, no matter how small
That I could actually find better than any streetlight
I put a ribbon on each of the sights that my eyes pick out
And I collect them like souvenirs as I continue down this path home
The seasons each say hello, and I shed a few tears as I go
Where should I begin to talk about this way home that you've given me?
I walk and walk and sometimes rush on my way to see you
I run and run, wait, no, I should still walk on my way to see you
A NEW FAMILY MEMBER
Its teeth are in him?! This is it!
Explode, you pig!
What?
The bomb ended up in the river?
The minister threw it?!
Sorry about this!
I'll let you out later, so just stay put.
That geezer actually managed that?! No...
Who the hell is that?
Why is it someone else? Did I mess up?!
Damn it!
We've got the plate number.
You're not getting away in that car.
Your plan is finished.
Miss Anya!
Did she head back toward the first pet shop?
I can't let her be found by the terrorists again!
I must catch up to her!
That's...
How dare you do that to Miss Anya?!
You won't get away this time!
Now people are falling from the sky?!
Move, you bitch!
Oh, hello. Is this the police?
I found one of the terrorists
after he got into an accident in an alley behind Northtown Park.
Would you kindly come fetch him?
Oh, no. I'm the housewife that called earlier.
I'll be going now.
Miss Anya! Miss Anya!
Despite everything that happened, looks like our work here is done.
Man, today sucked.
Thankfully, none of this caused a huge commotion.
The Eastern government should be working on erasing all signs that this ever happened.
Are we going to hand these dogs over?
That's not our concern.
For now, we'll keep them at this shop and report to the higher-ups.
We have plenty of things we need to look into.
Well, I'll be going now.
I need to get back to my family as quickly as I can.
Good work.
What are you two doing here?
I thought you went to the adoption event.
I came back because you were taking too long in the potty.
I was worried about Miss Anya, so I ran after her.
And... who is this dog?
Borf!
So since all that happened, we didn't exactly have time to look for a pet.
To think that these two got dragged into the incident, as well.
I'm sorry all this happened while I was in the bathroom.
No, no!
Your stomachache must have stemmed from the breakfast I made this morning!
I'm so sorry!
And you...
How many times must I tell you not to run off alone because it's dangerous?!
I'm sowwy!
So you're not hurt?
Mm...
Mister Dog protected me!
So he must be another one of the test subjects from Project Apple.
If that's the case, I can't let him run free.
I thank you for saving my daughter.
Pardon me.
We're from the State Security Service.
We're investigating the incident that occurred in City Center earlier.
May we ask you a few questions?
I see.
Then it's safe to say that this dog was also one of the dogs trained by the terrorists.
We'll take him in.
Thank you very much.
Also, this incident will not be revealed to the public,
given the relationship between the East and the West,
so I ask that you stay silent about this.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Now that things have settled down, why don't we go back to searching for a puppy?
You're right. Okay, Anya—
No!
Anya wants Mister Dog!
What are you—
Anya wants to take care of Mister Dog!
No, that dog belonged to the bad gu—
But he saved Anya!
But you're the one who said you wanted a small dog!
But Anya wants Mister Dog now! It's okay that Mister Dog is big!
Stop being difficult!
If you don't let me have Mister Dog, I'll go bad and stop going to school!
Wha—
What are you talking about?!
Why are you bringing up school now?!
Miss Anya, it's okay! It's okay, Miss Anya!
No!
Anya!
All right, very well.
Handl—er, ma'am?!
A-Are you sure about this?
I highly doubt one of these dogs going missing will cause any issues.
The terrorists have all been arrested, and the dog didn't actually cause any harm.
Wait...
As things stand, Operation Strix is in danger. What else can we do?
Yes, well...
He'll be under your supervision. Keep an eye on him.
The other dogs we have will be more than enough for our investigation,
so this isn't an issue.
Are you really trying to give me even more work?
There were a lot of other Mister Dogs.
Are the police ociffers going to be mean to them?
Don't worry your pretty little head.
The dogs will be well taken care of.
They'll be given soft beds and warm meals.
I'm sure these dogs have had very hard lives.
So make sure you take really good care of this pup here, all right?
Let's promise each other.
Fank you very much, important lady.
She's a good girl.
You have no idea what I've been through.
No, I do.
I also had a daughter about her age.
Isn't that wonderful, Miss Anya? Mister Puppy?
Mister Dog!
Thank goodness today ended peacefully.
You're right.
For now, we will be taking the dog for the night to check him for illnesses.
If there are no issues, we'll send him to your place in the morning.
All right.
Now, shall we head home?
Yes. It's been a very long day, and I'm exhausted.
This field trip doesn't end until we get home.
Don't let your guard down.
Did you learn that at school? This isn't a field trip.
Don't worry, Miss Anya.
This incident has already been taken care of.
Today, I defeated a bad guy and protected the peace
of this country without anyone knowing.
Papa was able to stop the bombing because of me.
Anya saved the world!
We protected the relationship between the East and the West, to an extent...
But physically, I'm done. My stomach hurts.
Heh.
And now, our next story.
I hope Mister Dog comes home soon.
Last night, two traffic accidents occurred in the city, one after another.
I hope Mister Dog comes home soon.
Though the incidents seem unrelated,
Calm down. He'll be here soon. And I can't see the TV.
the police are investigating for more details.
Good evening.
Mister Dog!
Please take good care of him.
He seems very curious about where he is.
Wellycome to Anya's house, Mister Dog!
This is now your home!
You know, we should probably give him a proper name now.
Name...
Number 8.
Get out here.
It's time for your medicine.
Damn it, hold still!
Here's your food. You better be grateful.
Raise the voltage.
But any more will...
It doesn't matter. Even if this dog dies, there are more where he came from.
I wonder what's wrong.
Are you nervous? Want a treat?
It's okay. You're one of the Holgers now!
Borf!
The summit that began yesterday is now beginning its second day,
and it appears that disarmament negotiations are going smoothly.
I won't get any stars even though I helped beat the bad guys?
Correct.
To make sure the East and the West keep getting along, we have to keep this a secret.
Don't go talking about it at school.
The police will come get you, and you'll never get to come home.
And after we saved the world together, too.
Come, now, Miss Anya. It's time.
If I can't have any stars...
The Friendship Scheme is the only way!
I'll go to Second Son's house and make Papa's mission a success!
What?! You got a dog?
Let's see which one of our dogs is bigger! Bring him over!
I'm just gonna keep saving the world.
Good morning, Anya!
Morning, pwease.
Thank goodness. Looks like she's gotten over her Starlight phase.
Hear me, Becky.
A dog has appeared at Anya's house.
Wait, really?! Ooh, what's it like?! What breed is it?
Some white kind.
How old is it?
Dunno. He's big.
I wonder if he's more precious than my little Wiesel!
I hope they can play together!
It works!
Hey, can I come over to your house...
Uh, hello?!
What do you want?
Heh.
I have a dog now.
Yeah, and?
The world is doomed...
A single phrase to bring a commoner to her knees.
Brilliant, Lord Damian.
Huh? Did I say something that mean?
I marvel at your wit!
Huh?
Sniffle, sniffle...
I'm sure it's just some filthy mutt.
What's... the dog's name?
His name...
Yeah. I guess I don't mind asking.
Dog?
You're not worthy of owning a dog. I've wasted my time.
Shock!
What?
You want to know how to name a dog?
Hmm... Maybe name him after a cute food or a flower?
Food... Peanuts?
But your doggie is really big, right? "Peanuts" might be weird, then.
You need to consider his appearance, too.
Appearance...
Old Man Hair?
You might be better off letting your mama or papa name him.
Anya has bad taste?
Papa, Mama, Anya has returned.
Welcome home.
Oh, my. You're such good friends.
Save me! He's gonna eat me!
Maybe we should take him for a walk.
Walk!
There's a dog park near the library.
Woof, woof, woof-woof! Woof, woof, woof-woof!
Papa! Anya wants to hold the leash, too.
You're not ready for that. He'll drag you around everywhere.
Though he's been trained before, he still needs household training.
You'll need to learn lots of things, too.
Like how to feed him, praise him, scold him, et cetera.
You need to be prepared to take care of him until the end.
Yep.
By the way, have you come up with a name for him?
My naming abilities are dismal.
Huh? All right...
A simple name that's easy for him to understand and for us to say would be best.
Apparently, dogs can't tell consonants apart very well,
so we'd be better off giving him a name with strong vowel sounds.
Especially A, U, or O.
This is hard...
They can't tell causes of death apart well?
Would you prefer to bleed to death?
Or perhaps be crushed to death?
Stop being so unreasonable!
I guess we can figure that out once we know more about his personality.
A dog park!
Hup!
Run around and play, Mister Dog! Or this will just be an Anya park!
Here we go, Leo!
Go!
Okay!
Mister Dog! We'll do that, too!
Hi-yah!
Maybe this doesn't work if you don't have a name.
Excuse me.
What is this Mister Dog's name?
How did you pick its name?
Tell me your secrets!
Don't run off too far!
Your name is Lucky Vanilla Princess III!
Then how about Atomic Angel Charlie General?!
Miss Anya seems to be having a lot of fun.
"Be prepared to take care of him until the end."
I may have no right to say those words.
Once this mission is over, there will be no more use for the Forgers.
My relationship with these two ends there.
Of course, I'll do my best to follow up with them.
But this terrorist incident has reminded me yet again
that this peace between the East and the West
is nothing more than a façade.
I must ensure that this cold war ends as soon as possible.
That will be the optimal future.
Hey, it's time to head home now.
You'll be studying once we get home.
Shock!
Huh? Huh, wha? Oh no, oh no, oh no...
I lost my gloves. Where did they go?
Did you drop them somewhere?
Those are Anya's favorites!
I don't see them anywhere.
Anya's gloves!
Give them back!
Me find! My precious!
How dare you?! What do you think you're doing to my sweet baby?!
Get lost, you stupid stray!
Aw, did he scare you?
Thank you, Mister Dog.
I've returned with the tummy warmer
that was stolen by the evil organization, Princess Honey.
Oh, thank you, Bondman!
It is a very important gift that my late mother gave me!
You're like Bondman. You got these back for me.
Oh, yeah. You're wearing gloves, too.
What's the matter?
Papa! I know Mister Dog's name now!
Mister Dog's name is Bond!
"Bond" from "Bondman," eh? Not bad.
That tickles!
It looks like he approves! And his collar fits perfectly.
Okay, Bond. I will now give you your first mission.
Eat every last kibble of this dog food!
Don't give him too much.
That was neither good nor bad.
Ah, you need to go potty.
Follow me, Bond.
Behold, this is your potty.
If you go anywhere else, Mama might get mad, 'cause she likes everything tidy.
So be cautious as you go.
He had to poo. Stinky.
Okay, Bond. We'll be watching this cartoon next.
I will teach you of your roots!
Hey, I told you that you need to study.
You'd better be ready by the time I finish my bath.
Those little...
Loid, Loid!
Look.
What is it?
They wore themselves out playing and fell asleep.
Oh, my goodness! Is this a little angel in our midst?!
I guess we'll let her off the hook for today.
Indeed.
