Story Dialog[]
Kuja: That's a lie! That is...!
Ultimecia: No, I am sorry to say that it is the truth. I find that you are nothing but talk*...
- (I couldn't think of a better way for her to politely say that Kuja is basically full of shit)
Kuja: ...Don't look down your nose at me!
Kuja: ...You should simply watch. I shall execute a plan more perfect than the all of yours.
Kuja: And that shall be my proof... That I am far greater than all of you!
Ultimecia: You poor boy...
Ultimecia: Then again, I do think you are a perfectly matched opponent for that insolent monkey...
So we go to our much more cheerful pair of heroes.
Zidane: So, Bartz, how about a contest?
Bartz: Contest?
Zidane: Ah, the first to find a Crystal wins. How does that sound?
Bartz: If its treasure hunt, I'll win in no time.
Zidane: Is that so? Well you're dealing with an expert thief.
Bartz: Then, I will mimic the thief and steal the victory from him!
Zidane: The treasure is... this way!
Bartz: I will also go... this way!
Bartz: Let's go, let's go, let's go!
Zidane: Quit copying me!
And so, the great crystal hunt begins!
Just as the pair think they have found one though...
Zidane: What is that?
Bartz: Could it be... a Crystal!?
Zidane: Ah... hey!
And suddenly, Bartz vanishes as soon as he touches the Crystal.
Zidane: Huh... Bartz!?
Zidane: Where did he go... Hey!
Kefka: Isn't this strange...
Kefka: The monkey was left behind, and the mouse was caught?
Kefka: Well, its all good. This should still be fun.
Zidane: Hey! Are you behind this? Where did you take Bartz!
Kefka: Damn, aren't you a noisy one!
Kefka: Shut up, little trap avoiding monkey!
Zidane: I will make you cough up Bartz's location!
(Fight scene!)
Zidane: Come on, give it up. Where did you take Bartz?
Kefka: The mouse IS* at the enemy camp!
- (Capitalized due to Kefka's emphasis)
Kefka: Right in the middle
Kefka: Search as much as you want, but I think it'll be impossible to find him.
Zidane: Bartz!
Zidane: I'm coming for you.
Dammit, I can't remember exactly where this scene goes (I did Zidane's scenes after I had already transcribed Kuja's). So... I'm gonna put it here. ^^;
Kuja: It's because of you that my plan failed. Now what do I do?
Kefka: My, my... are you going to have a tantrum? Well go on, newbie, don't hold back!
Kuja: Shut up... You won't make a fool of me!
Kefka: Oh my, are you really upset? Don't be angry, I'm here to guide you~
Kuja: ...Hmm, I'll only work with him because I have to, but I can still play my hand.
Kuja: In the end, I will have all of them kneeling at my feet.
For good measure, here is the scene between Kuja, Garland, and Jecht.
Kuja: I'm addicted to scheming?
Kuja: That twittering won't dissuade me.
Jecht: Having fun?
Jecht: Let me join in.
(And just as there seems to be an awesome throw down coming...)
Kuja: I've lost interest.
(and after he flies away, Garland comments)
Garland: I suppose I'd find a better opponent in brawler like yourself.
And just when you thought we were done with Garland and Ultimecia...
Garland: Well done... Trifling with a person's heart makes you a most vulgar person.
Ultimecia: You mean what happened with Kuja? Someone needed to tell him the truth...
Ultimecia: But because of that, he is making himself useful now. He said that he would elaborate on his various plans to capture that monkey.
Garland: And he is so caught up in his own naive idea of cleverness that he may not realize they are not so naive themselves.
Ultimecia: As it is, we also need to head out... We have an aloof lion to ensnare in our own trap.
Garland: ...catching people in these worthless plans... Has the same happened to me...
Catching back up with Zidane...
Zidane: Dammit, where is Bartz...
Squall: Because I believe I am not alone, I can continue on this war-ridden path on my own.
(Looking over the ledge, he sees Squall preparing to fight both Garland and Ultimecia at the same time)
Zidane: Squall?
Zidane: Idiot!*
- (That's not exactly what he says, but it's the intent behind the delivery)
Squall: I'll prove it to you.
Squall: Though we are separated, we still fight together!
(And this is where Zidane knocks Garland down!)
Zidane: You're being too cool, Squall!
Squall: Zidane!
Squall: Why did you do that?
Zidane: Do you need a reason to help someone?
Zidane: Just leave this old man to me!

Squall: Zidane!
Squall: Why did you do that?
Zidane: Do you need a reason to help someone?
Zidane: Just leave this old man to me!
Garland: You showed no hesitation in choosing me.
Garland: You trend on dangerous ground, boy.
Zidane: Well, it would be awkward to fight a lady.*
- (Note to Zidane: Ultimecia is not a lady. Ladies wear panties.
And Note to S-E: When you give people access to the camera, they will take screenshots like this.) Zidane: Besides, who says I'm worried about facing you?
(Battle!)
Garland: I must say that your skill made this quite enjoyable!
Zidane: Heh... he was pretty lively.
(and now we get back to our lion...)
Zidane: Squall!
Squall: Zidane, I owe you one.
Zidane: Don't worry about that.
Zidane: We don't have time to talk! We have a problem, a big problem!
Zidane: Bartz... Bartz has...
(and we cut away as Zidane explains the situation)
Squall: So that Bartz fellow was dropped into the enemy camp...
Zidane: Our own fault. We were both too wrapped up in our game.
Squall: You should be more careful. The bastards on the other side probably have their sights on you too.
Zidane: I won't lose sight of the goals here. And my next one is to go save Bartz.
Zidane: We just have to keep following this light.*
- (refering to the power of the Magical Chocobo Feather of Friendship leading them to Bartz)
And thus, the find Bartz! Hooray!
Zidane: Bartz! We've been searching for you!
Bartz: Zidane! Squall, you came too!
Squall: You're certainly calm.
Bartz: No, really they're a tough bunch.
Bartz: But, look at this!
(Tada, a Crystal!)
Bartz: I was victorious in snatching away this prize from them.
Zidane: What... and to think I was really worried about you...
Zidane: Look how shrewd you are!
Squall: Wait, that is...
Bartz: Zidane!?
(Oh noes! Another trap! And this time, Zidane is whisked away from his companions)
Kuja: Finally, we meet again.
Zidane: Kuja!
Kuja: Your friend was such a good pawn. I had no doubt that he would deliver the trap right to you.
Zidane: Of all the dirty things you've done.... where are my friends!
Kuja: In your situation, are you honestly worried about those people?
Kuja: I shudder to think so.
Zidane: Answer me.
Kuja: Does being alone make you feel insecure?
Kuja: If everything you wished to protect suddenly vanished, what would you do?
Zidane: What?
Kuja: That is the unconquerable challenge I put before one burdened with the same fate as I.
Kuja: And when you realize just how powerless you are, that is when your heart shall shatter.
Kuja: For as your friends fall, you can do nothing to stop us.
Kuja: My little bird, imprisoned in your cage, all you shall hear are the lamentations of your friends.
Zidane: Shut up!
Kuja: I suggest that you ease into your first solo performance.
Zidane: ...Everyone...
And as Zidane languishes, Garland makes another attempt to talk to Kuja.
Garland: Don't be so impatient... Kuja.
Kuja: Et tu, Garland*... Have you also come to look down your nose at me?
- (Obviously tweaked for reference. I thought it would fit given Kuja's flair for the dramatic)
Garland: No, I have not.
Garland: You and I are the same...
Garland: No, it is not just we two. Tangentially, we all the the same....even that witch, Ultimecia.
Garland: We are kindred souls burdened with similar fates. Even one as young as you is caught up in it.
Kuja: ...Tangentially similar? ...is that what... you said?
Kuja: Heh.... hehehehe... AHAHAHAHAHA!
Kuja: ...Now I finally understand.
Kuja: This is just another reason why all of you are inferior to me!
Kuja: Just you watch. The one adorned in a victorious finale... shall me be!
So, poor Zidane is left to try and find a way to escape.
Zidane: "Everyone... what should I do?"
(And then Cosmos appears in his hour of need)
Zidane: I don't think I have time for a date right now.
Cosmos: Zidane, do not be afraid.
Zidane: But I....
Zidane: I can do nothing to help them.
Cosmos: But there is something you can do in this situation.
Cosmos: Isn't that right?
Zidane: But, it's already too late...
Cosmos: Your friends believe in you.
Cosmos: And I know that you shall prevail.
Cosmos: You need to believe in them in turn.
Zidane: Believe... in everyone...
Cosmos: Your friends are strong.
Zidane: Yah, they are.
Zidane: They won't give up easily.
Zidane: And I will go make sure that they are safe.
Zidane: That is what I can do now!
Zidane: Thank you, Cosmos.
Zidane: And I am sorry that the lovely, encouraging lady I gladly serve caught me being so uncool.
Cosmos: That tenderness, it is your.... (strength)*
- (She whispers this and it is not included in the subs)
Zidane: Cosmos!
Zidane: I will not hesitate any longer.
And thus, we get to our bout of brotherly fighting!
Zidane: Kuja, step aside.
Kuja: You want to take this path?
Zidane: I want to go back to my friends.
Kuja: Why haven't you given up? If it is so terrible to be by yourself?
Zidane: I believe in them.
Kuja: Believe? In strangers? You're telling me that you trust them as friends?
Zidane: I am not playing around when I say I believe in them.
Zidane: And what about you, don't you have friends?
Kuja: Friends?
Kuja: Don't lump me together with that low-class lot!
Zidane: But...
Kuja: It's disappointing.
Kuja: Like trying to find joy as some hopeless tragedy is played out.
Kuja: Such preposterous rubbish.
Kuja: I shall bring his foolish drama to its conclusion here and now.
(scene change)
Kuja: I shall play for you - your requiem!
Zidane: Such noisy music!
Kuja: And this is only the first movement?
Zidane: Understand this - It's the climax!
(fight scene)
(And finally Zidane gets his Crystal!)
Zidane: If each of them give their all, we won't be defeated.
Zidane: Hey, Kuja
Zidane: Why do you find believing in other people to be so difficult?
Kuja: Believing in strangers... what good is it?
Kuja: Even when we gather together, is not everyone simply alone?*
- (This was a really hard line to work with, so I did the best I could.)
Zidane: But by believing in them, you find your own path to be easier.
Kuja: Such noise! It grates on my ears!
Kuja: I will never approve of it.
Kuja: And when the curtain finally falls, I alone shall bask in the applause.*
- (tweaked for poetry, but pretty much his final line)
Zidane: Kuja...
(and the Crystal leads Zidane back...)
Zidane: Could it be...
Zidane: Hey!
Zidane: "I believed in them, and they were waiting for me."
Zidane: "Because of them, I can overcome any obstacle."
Zidane: "And now, I know that without a doubt."
Zidane: "I came back to them, and I will make it home."
