Part 221: Yahiko's Fight 3
(Yahiko leaps in front of Kujiranami's gun to snatch the boy.)
Shin'ichi: Kid!
(Kujiranami fires; Yahiko and the boy go flying.)
Shin'ichi: Kid--!
(Kujiranami lashes out with his huge hands, knocking policemen down all around him, then fires several shots at Yahiko while he's still in mid-air.)
(Tsubame looks up at the explosion.)
Bystander (near her): That one was incredible!
Bystander 2: If you got caught in that nothing'd save you.
Tsubame (thinking): Yahiko... Yahiko's going to die!
(The smoke clears.)
Kujiranami: Now... they're all... out of my way.
Shin'ichi (picking himself up): Kid...
Kujiranami: Battousai... where are you... You can't hide...
Shin'ichi: Kid!!
Yahiko (getting to his feet amid a pile of rubble): It's okay! He's not hurt!
Officers: He's not... hurt...
Shin'ichi: No... he means, the boy's not hurt... (thinking) He used his body as a shield to protect the boy from the explosion... (aloud) What a guy...
Yahiko (to the boy): Can you run?
Boy: Uh...
Yahiko: Can you run out of here?
Boy: Um... I think so...
Yahiko: We'll look for your dad later. When I tell you, run out of the city as fast as you can.
