Snake: Fox, why!? What do you want from me!?

Ninja: I'm a prisoner of Death. Only you can free me...

Snake: Fox, stay out of this... What about Naomi? She's hell-bent on taking revenge for you.

Ninja: Naomi...

Snake: You're the only one who can stop her.

(The Ninja shakes his head, looking defeated.)

Ninja: No... I can't.

Snake: Why?

Ninja: Because I'm the one who killed her parents.

Snake: ...!!

Ninja: I was young then, and couldn't bring myself to kill her too. I felt so bad that I decided to take her with me. I raised her like she was my own blood to soothe my guilty conscience. Even now she thinks of me as her brother...

Snake: Fox...

Ninja: From the outside, we might have seemed like a happy brother and sister. But every time I looked at her, I saw her parents' eyes staring back at me...

Snake: ...

Ninja: Tell her for me. Tell her that I was the one who did it.

Naomi: Snake, it's me...

Snake: Naomi...

Naomi: I heard about my brother...

Snake: I'm sorry... but he had one last message he wanted to say to you.

Naomi: What...?

Snake: He told me to tell you to forget about him and to go on with your own life.

(Snake doesn't tell her what Fox actually said.)

Naomi: (moved to tears) Frankie said that?

Snake: Yeah. He also said he'll always love you...

Snake: Naomi, your brother just saved you, me, and the whole world.

Snake: He fought with every ounce of strength in his body.

Naomi: Maybe... maybe now he's finally found some peace.

Naomi: He wasn't really my brother anymore... Ever since he fought with you in Zanzibar he's been like a ghost.

Naomi: A ghost looking for a place to die...

(Naomi cries for a little.)
