(Bizarro Dreams episode 15)

[flashback sequence. Ikki wakes up after training]

Ikki – Shun... Is that you, Shun?

Esmeralda – Oh, Ikki...

Ikki – It's you, Esmeralda.

Esmeralda – You mistook me for your brother again.

Ikki – You look identical, that's why.

[Esmeralda chuckles]

Esmeralda – You're going to die if you keep going like this.

Ikki – I can't die. I must get the cloth no matter what. Anyway, you shouldn't be here, Esmeralda. You should be out on your own.

Esmeralda – I could've done that, but he raised me when I was very young. He's like a father to me. He wasn't always like this. It's just after returning from Sanctuary that he changed drastically.

Ikki – Is that so?

Esmeralda – Yes! I was lucky, but other girls have it worse. They're sold into slavery and abused night after night. At least I don't suffer much when I'm with him.

Ikki – Anyway, I think he's strict for my benefit.

[Esmeralda sighs and continues to heal Ikki]

[sometime later, a friend of theirs greets them]

Friend – Esmeralda, Ikki! It's been a while!

Esmeralda – Yes, I'm glad to see you.

Ikki (observes bruises) It happened again, right?

Friend – Yes... but I'm used to it...

Ikki – Only a few farms on this island, and you got sold to one...

Friend – That's life here. The girls on this island are sold into slavery when they turn seven. It's the only way their parents and brothers can survive. It's a hard world for the poor.

[a man who looks like Jango appears, grabbing the friend from behind and slamming her to the ground]

Owner – Lazy bitch! Looks like we'll have another lesson tonight.

Friend – No... please no...

Owner – Even the hogs and cattle have far more value than you. If it wasn't for your bod, I would've dumped you into the ocean long ago! You're not even worth the three sacks of flour I paid for you.

Ikki – What the hell, man?!

[Ikki grabs the man and punches him]

Ikki – How dare you see her as a sexual object?!
