Opening Song: Kimi no Te ni Boku no Te (Your hand in mine.)

 

And so we go off on a grand journey….

Armed only with determination

 

And a dream that refuses to be forgotten!

 

A rainbow of one color, birds that sing the same song

While it feels safe I gotta open my cocoon and fly someday

 

It was raining this morning so I thought I could sleep in

But then trouble started and friends and foes….

 

Fought as one!

 

I decided to have my journey with you

Because of the cool way you took your hand out of your pocket and showed it to me!

 

And so we go off on a grand journey

Armed only with determination.

 

And a dream that refuses to die!

 

 

(Last time on Sakaki Jikan Tabibito, After the death of Boss Tengon the Tengon mothership erupted into chaos with Sinister activating his new terrible weapon, and then threatening the whole universe with the newly acclaimed power of his. Sakaki met up with Bash and Crash and other Tengon guards who also happened to be the three that led Boss Tengon down this road of villainy and using their help tries to evacuate the people on the ship before Sinister could destroy it, and while he succeeds in this mission of his the Tengon mothership is no more. Sakaki and Gato manage to get aboard the Terror Iron Dragon, and Sinister decides to test out his new “toy” on the nearest unsuspecting planet. Unfortunately this planet happens to be the same one that Atsuko grew up on and where her best friend Kiki lives. Who can stop Dr. Sinister? What can Sakaki possibly accomplish inside the Terror Iron Dragon? The next Sakaki Jikan Tabibito is starting now and perhaps answers will follow it.)

 

 

Sakaki: Episode 44: Terrasno Special Defense Forces V.S. Sinister’s Ambition!

 

(Inside the Terror Iron Dragon, Atsuko stands behind a makeshift sheet getting dressed. This seems like someone put this together for only this purpose. Atsuko stops halfway and without turning speaks to the mad scientist.)

 

Atsuko: That was quite painful Kaiser-Sinister.

 

Sinister: I figured it would be. Your body probably isn’t used to that kind of rapid transformation. The foreign antibodies are exhausted and that’s what is causing you pain now. However I don’t think we will need to rely on that transformation again, seeing that I am sure that no one will be foolish enough to challenge us. But I am surprised though, that using the full power of the antibodies, you were able to transform into that.

 

(Flashback to the wolf-beast that attacked Carmen and Hiro, Crash, and the Tengon guards. Atsuko doesn’t remark on this and instead says….)

 

Atsuko: Kaiser-Sinister, what planet are we closing in on now?

 

Sinister: Seems like its….(is silent for a minute.) Oh just a little worthless ball of sand.

 

Atsuko: I see, if you should require my assistance…..

 

Sinister: I will call you of course.

 

(Atsuko stands half clothed and doesn’t move for a moment. Slowly but surely however her hand reaches up until it’s on her chest. She has a somewhat sad expression well as sad as one with an expression without a soul like hers can be. Sinister on the other hand has an expression of evil and malice as he flies towards Terrasno. Meanwhile down below on Terrasno Kiki is still standing on her balcony staring in the distance at the fire started by the Terror Iron Dragon’s shot.)

 

Kiki: What was that just now anyway?!

 

(Her grandfather joins her there looking rattled. It’s obvious that the old man was sleeping until the attack woke him up.)

 

Kiki’s grandpa: What’s going on out here? Can’t an old man get some sleep?

 

Kiki: The building over there (points) Just burst into flames grandpa!

 

Kiki’s grandpa: What? How did that happen?!

 

Kiki: I dunno, I just came out for some air and then that happened!

 

Kiki’s grandpa: We’d better prepare ourselves; you never know when we could be next.

 

Kiki: Y..yes grandpa….

 

(She goes inside and then turns on the TV to get more information on the attack and sits down dejectedly on a nearby couch.)

 

Kiki: Again it looks like I can’t do a thing about this….

 

(Kiki has a flashback to her last moments with Sakaki, and how the assassin Liu seemingly threw him into the center of a black hole. After all of this she was given a ship and managed to navigate it back to Terrasno where she’s been sulking ever since.)

 

Kiki: If I were stronger I could have helped Sakaki-kun and….maybe even brought ‘Tsuko-Chan back….

 

(She buries her face in her hands, and after this she can feel the hot tears slowly dropping down her arms.)

 

Kiki: Its bad enough ‘Tsuko-chan was abducted by the Tengons, but then they had to go and do that to Sakaki-kun….and….I wasn’t able to do anything to help at all…its just like he said from the beginning….it was no good for me to come at all…

 

Kiki’s grandpa: Are you still going on about that?

 

(Kiki was so busy wallowing in self-doubt that she didn’t even notice her Grandfather entering the room. He has a stern expression though he still talks gently to his granddaughter.)

 

Kiki’s grandpa: How many times have I told you? You can’t keep blaming yourself for what happened up there. If Sakaki were really going to place blame he’d place it on his own shoulders. You went there to nobly save your friend and while things didn’t work out I’m positive that Sakaki wouldn’t want you to beat yourself up about that.

 

Kiki: I know but….(sobs) He can’t come back….

 

(Then the news castor speaks up, almost as if he’s there with them in the room and is trying to resolve this conflict.)

 

Castor(On TV.): While the source of this attack is still unknown, we’re almost positive that this has something to do with the Tengons that attacked this planet a few years back.

 

Kiki: The Tengons! But why would they turn around and attack the planet? Don’t they have what they want?

 

Castor: Fortunately for us just like that last time they attacked and failed, the man who was the leader of the group that defeated them will once again lead us to glory.

 

Kiki: Wait…last time?

 

Kiki’s grandpa: Wasn’t that Scar? Atsuko’s father?

 

Kiki: That’s right!

 

(Sure enough the wolf-man is standing beside the castor and when beckoned to takes the mic.)

 

Scar: We will NOT stand for the Tengons to do this to us yet again. I promise you that we will defeat them once again. Even as we speak a fleet of our strongest ships is headed up into space to find the Tengons and take care of them.

 

Kiki: At least Scar-san is still reliable….

 

(Then Kiki gasps.)

 

Kiki’s grandpa: What’s wrong?

 

Kiki: But if they attack they might hurt ‘Tsuko-chan who is still on the ship!

 

Kiki’s grandpa: Oh yes….you’re right about that!

 

Kiki: I have to run over to ‘Tsuko-chan’s house and talk to her mom, maybe she can call Scar-san and have him call off the attack. It would take me too long to run all the way into town to talk to him there.

 

Kiki’s grandpa: Ok, but try to be careful…you barely avoided a scrape with death before and I’m worried it might happen again…

 

Kiki: I understand Grandpa, I won’t worry you again.

 

(She leaves the house and then gets her hover-bike from the back and begins to ride it away.)

 

Kiki(Thinking): At least if I can do this much, I can start to atone for my weakness before…..’Tsuko-chan…hold on!

 

(She rides off to Atsuko’s home, meanwhile on the Tengon escape craft the group has run into a couple of problems.)

 

Tengon1: It seems like this thing is running out of fuel…….why was it not filled up?!

 

Tengon2: I don’t think anyone expected to have to evacuate….

 

(The other Tengons on the ship begin to clamor uneasily.)

 

Tengon2: Hold on everyone, no need to get antsy, we’ve got enough fuel to make it to Terrasno the nearest planet.

 

(Meanwhile in the medical ward Bash sits forlornly beside Crash’s bed. In two beds beside his lie Carmen and Hiro.)

 

Bash: Crash….san….

 

Tengon3 (To Bash): Hey kid.

 

(Bash turns to him.)

 

Tengon3: Just wanted to let you know we’re gonna be landing on Terrasno soon.

 

Bash: Ok…..Thank…you…

 

(The guard nods and walks out.)

 

Bash: Crash….san…..I’m sorry….

 

(Then suddenly Bash gasps. She looks down and sees that Crash has clutched her hand.)

 

Crash(Weakly.): I’m pretty sure we talked about that apologizing thing…

 

(Bash begins to cry and blush at the same time.)

 

Bash: I’m….sorry…..(sniffles.) Crash….san…

 

Crash: I just….(Sighs) nevermind…

 

Bash: We’re going to be like….um….landing…soon…

 

Crash: Yeah I heard….man we’re a mess aren’t we?

 

Bash: Eh?

 

Crash: We were supposed to be Boss-sama’s two top interns…and yet he died without us even knowing.

 

(Crash begins to tear up.)

 

Crash: And now I’m all beat up and you’re the only one who’s here to watch over me. What kind of man am I?

 

Bash: Crash..s..san…

 

(He turns to her, and she takes his hand and puts it to her face.)

 

Bash: I…..i….think….you’re….fine…like….the…um…way…you….are…

 

(Crash takes his free hand and strokes her hair.)

 

Crash: You know…that actually means a lot coming from you Bash-chan.

 

(Crash stops suddenly and then looks up. Everyone in the escape ship was watching this whole scene apparently because they all stare intently at the two young tengons.)

 

Crash: DON’T YOU GUYS HAVE SOMETHING ELSE TO DO?!?!

 

(They all run around getting back to work and doing various things.)

 

Tengon1: Hey wait I see it! Terrasno! We’ll be able to land there in a couple of minutes.

 

(The others on board seem a bit relieved by this news. However this relief is changed to fear when they see a fleet of ships headed towards them.)

 

Tengon3: What the heck is that?!

 

Tengon1: That’s a fleet of attack ships! But what are they doing here?

 

(On the transmission intercom they get a incoming message. Tengon guard one intercepts the message and soon they hear the voice of the commander of the fleet.)

 

Commander: Hold it right there Tengons! If you think you’re gonna get a second chance to attack us you’re dead wrong!

 

Tengon1: Hold it! We’re not here to attack! We’re running because we’ve just been attacked!

 

Commander: As if we’d trust Tengon scum like you!

 

(Then the fleet begins to open fire. The Second Tengon guard takes the controls and starts to avoid the shots for a while, but since the ship was equipped for escaping and not attacking they can do nothing to protect themselves. To make matters worse the Tengon guard is still fatigued from the attack he received from the wolf beast Atsuko. So soon his reflexes start to dull and the ship begins to take damage. Each time the ship is hit it rocks around knocking everyone off of their feet.)

 

Tengon1: Drat it! Can’t you fly better than this?

 

Tengon2: If you’d like to take the controls be my guest! But I seriously doubt we can avoid them forever!

 

(Then sonar on the control panel sounds an alarm.)

 

Tengon3: A HUGE energy signature is coming!

 

Tengon1: DAMN! They have energy weapons too?!?

 

Tengon3: Hold on a second! This isn’t from the fleet!

 

Tengon2: Where is it from?

 

(Tengon3 turns to them with a expression of extreme terror.)

 

Tengon3: Its coming from where we just left…..where Sinister’s dragon is….!

 

Tengon1: Are you……..SERIOUS?!

 

(Everything becomes silent and a huge flash of light suddenly appears. The fleet of attacking ships suddenly stops their onslaught and is captivated by the flash of light.)

 

Commander: What the hell is that?!

 

(A huge light beam destroys the whole fleet. The Tengon escape ship luckily was just slightly out of the trajectory of the beam, but they are still damaged by it and start to fall down towards Terrasno at a very rapid speed.)

 

Tengon2: This is no good! We’re gonna land on Terrasno and be destroyed by the impact!

 

Tengon1: Damn!!

 

Tengon3: Hold on, I’ll try to find us a sea of water to land in! We should be able to float long enough after landing to get away and find a place to hide!

 

Tengon1: We’re leaving that to you!

 

(He goes and Tengon2 continues to try to reclaim control over the falling ship.)

 

Tengon2: If I can’t do this, I’ll never be able to face Boss Tengon in the afterlife!!! DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

(As the Tengons struggle with their problems Kiki has just come to Atsuko’s house and knocks frantically at the door.)

 

Kiki: Anna-san! Anna-san! Please answer the door! Its me Kiki!

 

(In a moment Atsuko’s mother Anna opens the door. While she is in sleepwear, she doesn’t look like she was sleeping. She looks worried about something, almost as if she knows why Kiki is here.)

 

Anna: Kiki-chan…why are you here at this time?

 

Kiki: You have to get Scar-san to stop the attack on the Tengons!

 

Anna: But…But why?

 

Kiki: ‘Tsuko-chan is up there!

 

Anna: W---What?!

 

Kiki: It’s true! She was captured by the Tengons and….(Sighs.) I guess it would be better if I explained the whole story from the beginning….

 

(After Kiki has explained what she knows after learning it from Sakaki Anna looks even more concerned than before.)

 

Anna: Kiki-chan…..if what you say is true then we really cannot afford to attack them can we….

 

(Kiki nods.)

 

Kiki: We have to find another way to fight them, at least until we get ‘Tsuko-chan down from there!

 

Anna: Yes, I’ll call Scar’s cellphone right away.

 

(She runs over to the phone and dials her husband’s number. After a moment of ringing, Scar does pick up.)

 

Scar: Yes? What is it?

 

Anna: I know this is sudden, but I just found out from Kiki-chan that our daughter is on the Tengon ship….so we have to stop the attack!

 

Scar: What?! Are you kidding?!

 

(Scar is at the HQ of defense for Terrasno. They are monitoring the situation; however because of the ray of light attack, they lost contact with the fleet. So needless to say Scar is a little bit on edge, and now this new information about his daughter doesn’t help things.)

 

Scar: How did she end up there?!

 

Anna: We don’t have the time to discuss this now! If we want to save our daughter we have to stop the attack!

 

Scar: I know….I’ll

 

(Then suddenly on the monitor screens at the H.Q. Sinister’s face suddenly appears. He looks smug almost as if he’s already won and taken over.)

 

Sinister: Hello there Terrasno, did you get my wakeup call?

 

Scar: Who are you?

 

Sinister: Kaiser-Sinister at your service. I’m going to be taking over the universe soon, so I felt it necessary that we become better aquatinted. What’s a little terrorism between friends afterall?

Scar: You! You’re a Tengon aren’t you? What happened to our fleet?

 

Sinister: Oh so THOSE were the flies that were in my way earlier. Well I decided to take care of them. To teach them that being in the way is never a good thing.

 

Scar: You WHAT?!

 

Sinister: They’re gone. Gone. Anyway, I’m on my way to your planet.

 

Scar: For what?!

 

Sinister: Well I have a new plaything I want to test. Don’t worry I don’t have anything as cumbersome as demands or anything like that.

 

(Scar grits his teeth.)

 

Sinister: I’m going to destroy all of you. Free of charge. Once I do a couple of freebies people will respect the power I wield and then things will be much smoother. I’m sorry, its not your fault at all is it? Just blame this “See to believe” society that we live in.

 

(Sinister’s face fades off the monitor and Scar bangs his fist on the control panel.)

 

Scar: Who the hell is he?!

 

(Scar out of anger hangs out the cellphone forgetting that his wife is on it.)

 

Scar: Get moving everyone! We can’t allow him to do as he pleases!

 

(Then one attendant runs over to Scar with a message.)

 

Attendant: A ship just crashed into the Great Terrasno Ocean! We think that the people on board are Tengons!

 

Scar: What? Why are they landing here if that guy is coming here? Just capture them and put them in holding until we get to the bottom of this!

 

(The attendant nods and goes off to assign this order. Scar growls angrily and then stops to think.)

 

Scar(Thinking.): Come to think of it, I thought the leader of the Tengons was Boss Tengon…yet I haven’t seen hide or hair of him….where is he and who is this new guy?

 

(Then a loud voice can be heard.)

 

Voice: HEY! You’re not allowed in here!

 

(Then the door to the monitor room opens and a familiar man walks in.)

 

Scar: What…..you’re…..

 

Familiar man: Assemble the Special Forces. Even if you throw wave after wave at them, it won’t solve anything. I however have an idea that should save your planet.

 

(Back at Atsuko’s house Anna hangs up the phone dejectedly.)

 

Anna: He hung up before he gave the order….and I keep trying but no answer….

 

Kiki: No….NO!!! ‘Tsuko-chan is going to be killed!!

 

(Anna embraces Kiki to console her.)

 

Anna: Scar has never let Atsuko, this planet or I down. We’ll have to trust he makes the right decision.

 

(Meanwhile the Tengon escape ship floats above water, indicating that they managed to find an ocean to land in afterall.)

 

Tengon2: Man…..i really thought we were goners then…

 

Tengon1: Nice job, I really knew you could do it.

 

Tengon2: Thanks, you guys were a big help too.

 

(Then Tengon 3 turns to the others on board and with a big grin tell the good news.)

 

Tengon3: We’ve landed safely on Terrasno!

 

(They all begin to celebrate at this.)

 

Bash(To Crash.): Crash…san….We’re….gonna….like….be…ok….after….all…

 

(She smiles happily.)

 

Crash: Yeah seems that way!

 

(They open the hatch to the ship, and yet again find that celebration has been rudely snatched from them, As they are surrounded by gun toting defense officials.)

Offical1: Throw down any weapons you have.

 

Offical2: the Terrasno defense forces, for being suspected of Terrorism have captured you.

 

Tengon2: Hold the hell on!! We didn’t do anything to your planet!

 

Offical2: So you plan on resisting?

 

Tengon2: You bastard! Don’t turn it into a big case!

 

(Tengon1 puts his hand on Tengon2’s shoulder and shakes his head.)

 

Tengon1: It’s no good. We can’t turn this into that time again. We’ll just have to do what they say….for Boss’s sake.

 

(Tengon2 reluctantly backs down and the defense forces begin to arrest everyone on the ship. Sinister up in space on the other hand seems like he won’t be stopping or able to be stopped anytime soon. The Terror Iron Dragon barrels down on Terrasno at a high speed and during this time firing beams of light down at the planet. Terrasno’s surface begins to get haggard and beaten as these shots rain down on it, and more buildings and monuments are being destroyed. People are being evacuated as fast as possible however, seeing that from the last attack that the Tengons initiated they have been prepared for another. However in on grassy knoll, a group of men are hurriedly building what seems to be a huge device. Scar is helping them as yet another man oversees all of this. With a close look we see that this man is none other than the Time space master who we’ve come to know as T.S.M.)

 

T.S.M.: Sorry that I came with such short notice. I didn’t want to interfere until the last moment because of the guidelines of the Time space association.

 

Scar: No its fine. I know how tightassed they can be.

 

T.S.M: I know that an apology won’t make up for what’s happening to your people but I extend my condolences.

 

Scar: Don’t look down on us T.S.M. The people of Terrasno aren’t so weak and coddled that this kind of thing would make us run away with our tail between our legs.

 

T.S.M.: Hmph. (with a more playful tone.) I see that you’re still prideful of this planet. That’s good, makes my job easier.

 

Scar: Yeah, but are you sure this thing will work?

 

T.S.M.: Yes it should. I can’t promise it will destroy it, but at least your planet will be saved.

 

Scar: Ok, I trust you.

 

T.S.M.: We have to wait until it gets closer however….

 

(Scar stops what he’s doing and stares at the T.S.M. with a look of shock.)

 

Scar: WHAT?! Why do we have to do that?

 

T.S.M.: If we had time I could have brought a more complete device, and we wouldn’t need to wait, but with the little time I had all I could spare was this less complete version which adversely isn’t as powerful.

 

Scar: But….that’s too risky!!

 

T.S.M.: Just believe in me. I won’t let you down.

 

(Scar looks forward for a moment and then goes back to building the device. Meanwhile the Terror Iron Dragon is practically on top of Terrasno and enters its atmosphere.)

 

Sinister: Well here we are. Victim number one in my journey of universal conquest.

 

(Atsuko says nothing, but Sinister doesn’t take notice of this and continues his decent. On the surface of the planet T.S.M. sees the Dragon coming.)

 

T.S.M.: Ok men! It’s ShowTime!

 

Scar(To the other men.): Is it ready?!

 

(The others give an okay signal.)

 

Scar: The Special Forces…..probably the most experienced men we have when it comes to building machinery this complex in this short amount of time.

 

T.S.M.: Brings back memories doesn’t it? When we used to work on this same force.

 

Scar: Heh yeah, but we can reminisce when that mecha is out of our hair. How close does it have to be?

 

T.S.M.: Don’t worry I’ll give you the signal.

 

(The dragon continues to fly lower, and Sinister inside smiles evilly knowing that there isn’t anyone at this point that can stop him…….or so he thinks. The T.S.M. watches him like a hawk, and then suddenly he points at the Dragon and yells….)

 

T.S.M.: NOW FIRE!

 

(The device they’ve been building suddenly expands into a machine that looks like a laser rifle and then it fires straight at the Dragon. Inside the dragon Sinister notices the beam of energy and before he can react a screen on the monitor in front of him pops up revealing information about the blast. Sinister reads it quickly and for the first time……ever…has a look of surprise and maybe even a little fear?)

 

Sinister: NO! I can’t let those little peons do this!!!!!!!!!

 

(He turns to Atsuko.)

 

Sinister: TURN ALL THE WEAPONS ON TO MAXIMUM AND FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Atsuko: Won’t the feedback affect the dragon?

 

Sinister: That doesn’t matter!! DO AS I SAY!

 

(She does so and once she does Sinister says into the microphone….)

Sinister: DISAPEAR!!

 

(The dragon fires everything it’s got at the T.S.M.’s weapon, and at the same time the beam from the weapon fires up at the dragon. Both beams of light collide causing a huge shockwave, and then they begin to push at each other.)

 

T.S.M.: Its stronger than I thought….(Thinking) This anti-matter time distortion device disrupts the normal flow of cromotons in the air that cause time to flow by normally. While a stronger version would have worked right away this weaker version takes a bit longer. However if it works….

 

(From Atusko’s house Kiki and Anna can see the battle of the dueling light beams and Kiki puts her hands together and closes her eyes as a single tear falls. She begins a silent prayer that Atsuko will be able to survive this unscathed, and Anna watching her does the same. The people of Terrasno look up at the two beams of light and all cross their fingers pray, and do other things that will affirm their faith in their safety. Sinister too is hoping that his evil desires won’t be stopped here….and continues to tell the dragon to blast the beam to smithereens.)

Sinister: Do NOT let them win! This is the ultimate weapon! Show those peons who WILL rule the universe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

T.S.M.: Keep the beam going!! Don’t give up!

 

Scar: You heard the man!!

 

(The two beams continue to push at each other not giving any way to the other.)

 

T.S.M.: This is no good. We’re not equipped for a long fight!!

 

Scar: T.S.M.! What should we do?

 

T.S.M.: If you don’t believe in God, start believing now.

 

(Everything on Terrasno is quiet now, everyone praying that this won’t be their last day to enjoy the freedom of being alive. Unfortunately it looks like Sinister’s beam is winning out and that everyone is hope is going unanswered. However suddenly back with Kiki and Anna, Kiki gets a strange premonition.)

 

Kiki: Huh?

 

(She feels safe now…even in this situation Kiki begins to feel safe.)

 

Anna: Kiki-chan?

 

Kiki(Smiling weakly.): Its gonna be ok….its going to be ok!

 

Anna: Kiki…..chan?

 

(The beam fight in the sky suddenly turns around and the beam from the T.S.M.’s device surges with power and after dissolving the Terror Iron Dragon’s beam hits the dragon with full force.)

 

Sinister NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

(The dragon’s features distort and then it disappears completely.)

 

Scar: It….worked?

T.S.M.: Apparently so.

 

(After a few more moments of awkward silence the T.S.M. sighs and turns to the men.)

 

T.S.M.: It’s ok to celebrate now.

 

(The men all begin to celebrate and almost in unison so does the rest of the planet. Kiki is still smiling though she’s crying now, and Anna stares at her quizzically.)

 

Kiki(Thinking.): Its up to you now…….i believe in you and I know she does too….Sakaki-kun…

 

(Scar slaps the T.S.M on the back playfully though this causes the Time space master to fall forward.)

 

Scar: Man you had me worried there for a second!

 

T.S.M.: Yeah I could tell.

 

Scar: But…what happened?

 

T.S.M.: The machine isn’t dead but you guys are safe. All that machine did is transport it into a time pocket. There theres no one to destroy and no way for it to escape.

 

Scar: Hey nice!

 

T.S.M: Theoretically.

 

Scar: Hu---WHAT?

 

T.S.M.: That thing IS strong, so it might be able to break free.

 

Scar: So how are we safe then?

 

T.S.M.: I have a Special agent working on it right now. He’s a little bit inexperienced, but he’s proven himself to me.

 

Scar: Who?

 

T.S.M.: Oh if all works out you know of him soon enough.

 

(We go deep into space and find the pocket the dragon is trapped in. Sinister sits inside with a dark expression of both anger and calmness. Though he smiles slowly and then stands up.)

 

Sinister: Well well well. I’ll give them credit for setting me back. But soon I will be back and stronger than before.

 

(Outside the dragon is nothing but darkness, and somehow the dragon is standing out on space like one would stand on the ground. Atsuko suddenly turns around and then stares intently at the doorway that leads into the room that they’re in as it opens slowly.)

 

Sinister: Who is there?

 

(The door opens completely and in the doorway stands our hero and sidekick team.)

 

Gato: Dammit this IS the right room this time right?

 

(Sakaki stares forward, and so does Gato. They both see Sinister and Gato sighs with relief.)

 

Gato: FINALLY. I’ve been itching to use this line all day! (Gato smiles) And HEEEEEEEEREEEEEEEEEEEEES JOHNNY!

 

(Ignoring this comment, Sakaki and Sinister stare at each other. Sinister smiles slightly apon seeing his archenemy. Sakaki however has eyes that are hardened and unforgiving; his eyes alone proclaim that this will be the fight to end all fights. That Sinister WILL pay for what he’s done. Sakaki draws the midnight blade and holds it out in front of his face.)

 

Sakaki: SINISTER THIS IS IT!

 

Ending Song: Kaze wa yatte kuru bashou (The place where the wind comes.)

 

When the wind whispers its secrets

Where will you be? And who will you be with?

 

All the glittering dreams will become real just temporally

What will you wish for?

 

You who is unable to wait for anything

Will the gentle dawn come fast enough?

 

If the clouds part and you leave…

Where will the wind take you?

 

Your scent, it’s carried gently along the wind,

No matter how far you think you’ve gotten

 

Is drifting drifting, the fate that you were given?

Or simply the one you accepted?

 

When the wind speaks its story….

Will you listen? And will you believe?

 

All of the empty feelings will disappear

What will you wish for?

 

 

NEXT TIME’S STORY

 

Atsuko: You….you’re the foreign antibody in my body aren’t you?

 

Atsuko(Antibody): Yes…I inhabit you….host body.

 

Atsuko: Do you really support what Sinister is doing?

 

Atsuko(Antibody): I don’t support or disport him. He is the reason why I exist, and so I serve him

 

Atsuko: I see….have you ever been….unhappy? Lonely?

 

Atsuko(Antibody.): No, never. I am not created to feel that way.

 

Atsuko: I feel for you.

 

Atsuko(Antibody): Don’t feel for me, I only can do what I’m told….you should feel sorry for Sakaki.

 

Atsuko: He’s……here?

 

Sakaki: Next time on Sakaki Jikan Tabibito…..

 

INSTANT HEALING PROPERTY! ATSUKO’S PRESENT!

 

Atsuko: Thank you….I’ll remember you as a friend.
