Final chapter-spirit climax
in the present, mamimi and naota looked down at haruko and cried, it was confirmed, she had been killed, it surprising her body was in this shape. Naota knelt down by her and kissed her on the lips. Haruko put her arms around him and when he tried to let go, she kept on kissing. Haruko "how's the baby coming along?" naota "how, why , what hu--" haruko "shhh... calm down, it isn't exactly how I expected you to awake me." naota "what are you talking about?" haruko "remember the last time I saw you, I gave you protection, well that was to protect me." mamimi "what? You mean that whole time we were worried, it was all for nothing, and that you just forced naota to kiss you you dirty whore?" haruko "hey easy easy bitch! Don't ruin my moment with naota here!" mamimi "what did you say about me?" naota "yea what's the big idea?" haruko "you know what you two, remember a long time ago, when you were both kids, how I came to this world and left for that very long time?" naota "duh! How else would we even recognize you?" haruko "well, I wasn't trying to flatten the wrinkles, or become atomsk, I was a double agent for the good guys, this whole time I was just trying to destroy atomsk, and you know what kid? I finally did!" naota "what are you talking about?" haruko "you'll understand when you're older." naota "hello, I'm old enough right now!" haruko "what I mean is, you'll understand when you're dead!" naota "what?" haruko "time to die atomsk!" naota "I'm not atomsk, you already destroyed him!" haruko "no not you, I'm talking about mamimi!" naota "you're insane! you aren't making any sense!" haruko "no, you don't know anything!" "You are the portal, and when you have a child, that child becomes atomsk, I defeated the last one, but now I must defeat this one before it begins!" mamimi "don't kill my baby! I love naota and there's nothing you can do to hurt me!" haruko "just watch!" haruko ran the guitar through mamimi. Naota "NO! mamimi!" mamimi burst into light and time stopped in place, haruko: "now I have fulfilled my purpose!" naota "what have you done!" haruko started to fade and mamimi collapsed onto the ground. Time continued, and naota went to mamimi's side. Naota "why did you have to die, this is the worst day of my life!" he kissed mamimi and all of a sudden the wound healed and she woke up in a daze "wha-t happened?" naota "don't worry everything's going to be alright." at that moment, naota felt very strange, like something was missing. He looked down, and was shocked. Mamimi: "what's wrong naota?" a red light shined in the sky, and down came a robot, it was canti, he had returned. In his hand he held but one thing: a gibson eb-0 1961 model, he waved his hand and let off a note, and suddenly all naota could do was lie down under the bridge, and listen to mamimi talk about baseball, and everything was ordinary, and for naota, ordinary was perfect. —FLCL ride on shooting star (the pillows)
