 Southern Tamandua |
Huff, huff... Finally got away... |
| Southern Tamandua |
Japari Park's been so scary, recently... There's been Celliens everywhere, and all sorts of weird rumors too. |
| Southern Tamandua |
...Huh? I feel like I forgot something important... |
| Southern Tamandua |
Eek! Who's there?! |
 Cellien |
――――！ |
| Southern Tamandua |
Celliens again?! Dangit, get away from me! |
| Southern Tamandua |
Ugh... If it's come down to this, then... |
| Southern Tamandua |
Intimidation Pose! |
| Cellien |
... |
| Southern Tamandua |
Jeez! Why are you still here?! Go away! |
| Cellien |
――――！ |
| Southern Tamandua |
Nooo! Don't come near me! |

 Meerkat |
Dhole, could you settle down, please? You've been humming incessantly ever since we set out. |
| Meerkat |
You should say something too, Captain. |
| File:CaptainKF3Portrait.png Captain |
Seems like you're having fun. |
| Let's sing together! | |
| Dhole |
Well, it's always been my dream to explore the Park like this! |
| Dhole |
And now, I'm the Vice Captain too... Vice Captain... Teehee. |
| Meerkat |
No matter how fancy your title is, you're still immature. |
| Dhole |
All together now, Captain! One, two! |
| Dhole |
Expedition Party~ Expedition Party~ Japari Paaark's Expedition Party~ |
| Meerkat |
Good grief, you two... |
| Meerkat |
You'll trip over if you're not careful. |
| Dhole |
But I am being careful! It's hard to walk around here! |
| Meerkat |
No, I mean... I suppose that's fine. Either way, I'd like to have your attention, please. |
| Meerkat |
The Cellien who stole Serval-san's Sparkle should still be hiding somewhere in this forest. |
| Dhole |
...The Giant Cellien, huh. I wonder what we should do if we find it. |
| Dhole |
If it defeated Serval-san's group, we probably wouldn't stand a chance... |
| Meerkat |
You won't be able to do anything if you just give up from the start. |
| Meerkat |
First, we need to determine what the enemy really is. |
| Dhole |
Th.. That's right! First off are the Celliens-- |
| Dhole |
Ouch! |
| Dhole |
O-Ow, ow, ow...! Why'd this rock just... |
| Meerkat |
Blame your own carelessness. There wasn't even anything to trip over. |
| Dhole |
No, this rock just suddenly popped up out of nowhere, and... |
| Meerkat |
Actually, I don't think that's even a rock. |
| Cellien |
――――！ |
| Dhole |
It's a Cellien!! |
| Meerkat |
Got the rug pulled from under your feet, huh? |
| Dhole |
Ugh... You Cellien, how dare you trip me over! I will never forgive you! |
| Meerkat |
...I think I might've educated this girl incorrectly, somehow. |
| (Cellien battle) | |
| Dhole |
We... We did it! Captain, Sensei! We defeated the Celliens! |
| Meerkat |
Dhole! Don't lose your focus! |
| Cellien |
――――！ |
| Dhole |
Oh no! There's more?! |
| Meerkat |
Carelessness will only lead to danger! Remember that! |
| Meerkat |
Now then, class is resumed. Let's go, Dhole, Captain! |
| Dhole |
O-Okay! |
| (Cellien battle) | |
| Meerkat |
...Whew. Seems like that's the last of them. |
| Dhole |
That's the first time I've seen so many Celliens at once... I wonder where they came from? |
| Meerkat |
No idea. They might be related to the Giant Cellien from before. |
| Dhole |
What should we do now, Captain? |
| File:CaptainKF3Portrait.png Captain |
Look around our surroundings. |
| Hunt down Celliens. | |
| Meerkat |
I agree with that decision as well. |
| Dhole |
Um... There's just one thing on my mind. |
| Dhole |
Did all those Celliens come from the same direction? |
| Meerkat |
Now that you've mentioned it... Captain, let me take a look at the map. |
| Meerkat |
...It seems like we've been in the Restricted Area all along. |
| File:CaptainKF3Portrait.png Captain |
Restricted Area? |
| Dhole |
Oh, if I remembered correctly... |
| Dhole |
It's a dangerous area with many reported Cellien sightings, right? |
| Meerkat |
I've taught it to you in class before, haven't I? You've remembered well. |
| Meerkat |
It's an area that small Celliens often appear in. |
| Meerkat |
As small as they are, though, we can't just ignore those Celliens altogether. |
| Dhole |
So that's why the Expedition Party regularly patrols these places! |
| Dhole |
Secretly fighting Celliens from behind the scenes... The Expedition Party is so cool! |
| Meerkat |
...Regularly patrols... |
| Dhole |
Hmm? What is it? |
| Meerkat |
Dhole, have Serval-san and the others said anything about the patrols, recently? |
| Dhole |
Huh? Umm... |
| Dhole |
Oh yeah, Mirai-san and Serval-san said something the other day... |
| Dhole |
Something like "We're going to have to patrol the Restricted Area soon." |
| Dhole |
Wait! Could they have been attacked when... |
| Meerkat |
They were inside the Restricted Area. There's a high possibility. |
| Dhole |
Maybe the recent Cellien outbreak has something to do with it, too... |
| Meerkat |
We won't know unless we check. |
| Meerkat |
Speaking of which... |
| Meerkat |
I should've asked Mirai-san for more information before we left. |
| Dhole |
But we didn't, since we were in a rush. |
| ??? | Heeelp! |
| Dhole |
Hm? Did you hear something just now? |
| Meerkat |
I heard it too. It sounded like someone screaming... |
| Dhole |
Wha...?! Captain, Sensei! Over there! |
| Southern Tamandua |
Help meee! |
| Cellien |
――――！ |
| Meerkat |
A Friend is being attacked by a Cellien! |
| Dhole |
We need to help her! |
| Dhole |
But... There's so many of them... |
| Meerkat |
Snap out of it, Vice Captain! This isn't a situation where you can let fear control you! |
| Dhole |
Vice Captain... That's right. I'm the Expedition Party's Vice Captain now! |
| Dhole |
Captain! Sensei! Let's go! |
| (Cellien battle) | |
| Meerkat |
Seems like that's the last of them. Where's that Friend from earlier? |
| Southern Tamandua |
Ughh... Celliens, go away... Go away... |
| Dhole |
Thank goodness! Seems like she's safe. |
| Southern Tamandua |
Waah! Don't come closer! |
| Southern Tamandua |
...Huh? Where are all the Celliens? |
| Meerkat |
We defeated them all. You don't have to worry anymore. |
| Southern Tamandua |
Whaaat?! Even though there were so many? |
| Southern Tamandua |
...Speaking of which, who are you guys? |
| Dhole |
We're the Expedition Party! I'm Dhole, the Vice Captain! |
| Dhole |
This is [Player]-san, the Captain, and that's one of our members, Meerkat-sensei. |
| Southern Tamandua |
I-I'm Southern Tamandua. Thank you for saving me. |
| Southern Tamandua |
But are you guys really the Expedition Party? I thought the Vice Captain was Serval. |
| Meerkat |
Serval-san was attacked by a Giant Cellien. She can't go on duty at the moment. |
| Southern Tamandua |
She was attacked?! |
| Dhole |
We're taking on the Expedition Party's duty to track down that Giant Cellien. |
| Southern Tamandua |
... |
| Dhole |
Um, what is it? |
| Southern Tamandua |
Sounds suspicious. |
| Meerkat |
Excuse me? |
| Southern Tamandua |
I can't imagine Serval getting pummeled like that so easily. This sounds suspicious... |
| Southern Tamandua |
O-Oh! I get it! You guys are Celliens in disguise! |
| Meerkat |
What is this girl even saying? |
| Dhole |
But we're not Celliens. |
| Southern Tamandua |
Y-You're not? Well, uh... |
| Southern Tamandua |
Are you guys the poachers I've been hearing so much about?! |
| Dhole |
...Poachers? |
| Meerkat |
This isn't going anywhere. Could you please settle down and tell-- |
| Southern Tamandua |
A-Awawawa... Go away, don't come any closer... |
| Southern Tamandua |
I-Intimidation Pose! |
| Dhole |
?! |
| Southern Tamandua |
Okay, now go away! Beat it! |
| Dhole |
That was so cuuute! I thought my heart was going to stop... |
| Southern Tamandua |
The intimidation pose didn't work?! |
| Meerkat |
Why'd she think it would work in the first place? |
| Dhole |
I-It's okay... We're not scary, so could you come here...? |
| Southern Tamandua |
A... W-Wa... Waaaah! Help meee! |
| Dhole |
Ah! Wait! |
| Meerkat |
"Save me," she said... Even though she just got saved earlier. What an annoying girl. |
| Dhole |
Meer-sensei! She's going deeper into the Restricted Area! |
| Meerkat |
Ugh, this is so annoying! We're going after her! |
