Yuji is separated from Marlene and Dice amidst the confusion of a sandstorm. He is rescued from the desert by a band of nomads, and is befriended by Elena, a young nomad girl.

Seeking out a single ray of light,

I can do is wander on, no matter how far.

akirame ni nita tameiki wo tsuki-nagara
As I breathe a sigh not unlike surrender,

kizutsuku koto wo osoretaku nai yo itsu mo I don't
want to fear how I've been hurt, all the time.

Set me free now!

on, let it all go, to the far reaches of time,

From that which binds the soul!

For my heartbeat!

freedom your weapon,

you are sure to attain it!

shinjiru chikara wo yume wo The
power to believe and dream is there



ikite yuku tame ni
for you to go on living.

Who is it that told you this
route would be a piece of cake!?

It is a piece of cake!

That is, it would have been,

if a certain somebody hadn't decided we
should charge our way into this sandstorm.

I guess so...

Stay sharp!

Right, right.

One's coming! A big one!

Yuji!!

Out of my way,
you insect bastard!

Yuji!

Where am I...?

Marlene...



Where's Marlene?

No, you shouldn't move yet!

Good. If you hadn't opened your eyes
soon, I don't know what I would have done.

Where is this?

We move around, looking
for food for our goats.

Along the way, we
found you slumped over.

So that's it. Thanks
for saving me.

Are you okay!?

Sorry.

So he's finally come to?

Dad!

You can let us take care of
you until your injuries heal.

It's milking time.

What's your name?

Yuji, Kaido Yuji.

Yuji, huh? What an unusual
name. Yuji. Yuji... How strange!

Um... so what's your name?

Me? Elena.

Elena, huh?

Marlene... Dice... Are you okay?

You don't need to be
worrying about Yuji.

He may be young, but
he's a full-fledged man.

I'm sure he can at
least look after himself.

Right?

Don't look so scared. Are you
really that worried about Yuji?

Of course. I am headed to Baikonur
with the Sample. I have been given...

this important duty, huh?

How commendable.

Is your duty all that important? There's
something else important to you, ain't there?

Nonsense! There is nothing more
important than duty. Not to me right now...

There, that does it.

We're off!

We're leaving already?

Mm-hm, we have to look for
other lands to feed our goats.

But, if you don't know where or
when you'll be attacked by the Blue,

why not run away
to some safe place?

Safe place? And
where would that be?

Well, that is...

Since everywhere we go is
the same, we never change.

We are just born into
this land, grow up, and die.

Somehow, I envy you.

Being able to live like this.

Really? In that case, you
could just live among us too, Yuji!

These are new bullet
holes... test firing?

Yeah, this was quite the
poorly-behaved group.

Who are they? If soldiers were to pull
something like this, they'd be disciplined.

If they were normal
soldiers, that is.

Say, have you seen Yuji?

Not sure. I saw someone
headed for the lake a while ago.

Really? Thanks!

Elena, stop constantly looking after
strangers and start taking care of me!

I'll think about it!

Don't get in too deep over him.
He is from a different world, after all.

It's supposed to be in this direction-Baikonur.
No reason I should see it, I guess.

We think alike!

Elena?

This is my favorite spot. It's pretty,
how you can see the whole lake, isn't it?

Huh? Y-yeah, sure is.

Say, Yuji, have you
ever seen the ocean?

The ocean?

When I was a child, I heard
something from my late grandpa.

He said the ocean was many times as vast
as this. Hard for me to believe, though.

Many times doesn't
even cover it!

Compared to the ocean,
this is like a puddle.

Really!?

Yeah. Blue and wide,
stretching out forever.

Well, if the lake is like
this, then this much?

Uh uh, not quite.

Then, this much!

Not even close.

Then, how much!?

Let's see...

Yuji?

The same as the sky.
As far as you can see!

Wow. The ocean is incredible, huh?
Sometime... will you show it to me?

What is it!?

So now, what sort of
catch will we have this time?

We are the Kyzyl Kum area
guard, 4th independent squad.

We are currently conducting a
campaign to exterminate the Blue.

We are unable to contact our base,
and our supplies are running out.

As such, we would like to
ask for your cooperation.

We have need of your
food and materials and such.

We refuse!

Go back to where you came from!

We have absolutely nothing
to share with you miscreants!

Shut up!

Dad!

If it weren't for us, you'd all have
been killed by the Blue already!

Enough!

If that is how you feel, then we will just
have to make you cooperate our own way!

This is great! We're
getting some target practice!

Ain't you got anything besides this!?
Military rations were far better than this!

How awful! How terribly awful!

Elena!

Stop it!

Get off of our land!

Elena! Stay back!

Elena!

This will be my trophy! You guys
enjoy yourselves however you want!

Elena!

Yuji!

Hm!? What do you want!?

W- what do you think
you're doing, you...!?

H- hey, kid!

Stop that!

Leave the rest to me, Elena!

Yuji!

Why!? Why is there someone in a place like
this that can operate an Armor Shrike!?

What!?

Withdraw! Withdraw!

Everyone, you can relax now!
They've learned their lesson, and... huh?

I'll help you, too.

You should know
well enough yourself.

He's someone who is
incompatible with us.

Elena!

I wouldn't know such a thing!

Nomads, huh? I'm surprised
there are still people like that around!

Yuji...

What?

Elena...

Thank goodness! I was worried that
maybe you had gone off somewhere!

You found a map, right?

Yeah, the survival kit in the
Armor Shrike was outfitted with one.

Are you leaving, Yuji?

I was thinking that if I went to
Baikonur, something would change.

I thought I knew
what lay ahead. But...

Now I'm not so sure. Was it really
all that meaningful, or instead...

If so...

It doesn't have to change, I don't
think. You don't have to force a change.

No matter where you go...

No matter where you live,
Yuji, you'll still be Yuji, you know.

Elena...

And so, stay here.

Don't go anywhere...

This cold is really
hard on an old man!

Hey, time to change the guard.

Isn't that the nicest face?

Yuji?

Yuji...

the days when we smiled again and again

to cherish someone.

I'm not going to Baikonur!

Are you serious, Yuji?

After all, Marlene, you're
just doing this out of duty.

In that case, I'll force
you to do as I say!

If you intend to shoot Yuji, go
ahead and shoot me as well!
