"Woah, that bit's all wrong. People just assume the gunman's the right-hand man, but the real number two's Polnareff. I'm number three. Think about it – you take the number two twice, you get four. Four's bad luck. I'm not getting anywhere near that. Three is much safer."

Fugo later wondered if he'd only brought Narancia along to cover his own lateness, but only because he was so unsure of the real reason. When Buccellati noticed Narancia's illness, he called a taxi, and took him directly to the hospital. Fugo was left alone in the restaurant.

He let them. He kept still. The horde all focused on him, trying to reach him. But the girl who'd stabbed him was moving the other way, certain she'd won. Making her easy to track. "Grrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaauugghhh!" Purple Haze's snarl ripped through the night.

When he saw the yacht provided for them, Fugo gulped. It was the same model as the Lagoon Buccellati had owned. He remembered the first time he'd seen the Lagoon...

These people sensed none of this. There was nothing left of their minds but the bloodlust they'd been infected with. Fugo shuddered. This was what the drug Manic Depression created lead to. Night Bird Flying was just carrying the effects to everyone.

He lined up the shot with the five of them, and the Lagoon behind them, and snapped the photo. The clear blue sky behind them. But the sky today was gray and cloudy. I wonder what happened to that photo... He'd forgotten about it completely.

"Did I go too far? Serves you right for trying to run me down. I suppose you'll still make for a decent hostage." He grabbed her roughly, and yanked her out of the remains of the car. She hung limp, like a kitten held aloft by the scruff of its neck. "Urgh...Voodoo Child!"
