Space Guardian - Angel Links
You cannot run fast, if you`re groping in the dark
Space Guardian - Angel Links But fearless of the pitch black
I have decided to go forth
Always in my heart
There`s love and courage
Filled to the brim
As my soul swells softly
So I can do
I`ll never let it rain on my soul
No matter what, it`s All My Soul!
Seize the moment tomorrow And grasp tightly, and more
To change into something sure
For Myself
One day I`ll be able to run with more strength
Faster than fate
As I seek the future
Chenho...
Is this blood revenge?
Space Guardian - Angel Links
My Ship
Your entry permit number please.
C338.
Shipment consigned to Ride Transport.
We`ve requested an Angel Links escort..
Embarking tomorrow. We`ve received instructions.
Please com plete your inspections at C Gate.
Thank you.
So this is the cargo manifest for this shipment.
This is the contract between Ride Transport and us.
The contract stipulates the routing, details of the escort...
...and guarantees relating to contingencies.
Please read it and provide your signatures.
Yes, well, there are pirates who`ll come after us small fish.
It might seem silly...
...to hire an escort considering how cheap the merchandise is.
But it sure helps us.
Isn`t he a bit paranoid?
The route to planet Dela is about as safe as it gets.
It`s always boring jobs like these. There`s no excitement.
There`s trouble!
Huh?
The cargo was stolen while being brought in!
Just before it was to enter our security zone.
And the culprits?!
They`ve escaped!
They appear to be from the Outside Gang!
The beggar pirates?!
She seems happy.
You tell me! What was taken?!
Ride Transport. Container #2 and #3.
No!
That`s ours!
I knew it!
Container #3 has an important client`s artwork.
I can`t compensate them!
Counselor! Counselor!
Tell me the responsibility lies with Angel Links!
Right?! Right?! Right?!
What?
But the contract...
It`s done!
See, it`s a done deal.
You can see the signature!
Wait a minute. It was your responsibility...
I said it`s a done deal!
A done deal is a done deal!
Isn`t that right?!
All the merchandise on this manifest is covered, right?!
You should have arranged security for the transfer here.
Altair is a dangerous place, you know.
So, I`m saying that...
...the incident took place on your property.
You are responsible!
Isn`t that right, counselor?
Well...
...not if it happened outside the gate.
I beg you. Just tell me we have a contract.
It`s not done.
The contract has not been finalized!
It`s done!
I`m telling you it`s not!
It`s done!
It`s not!
It`s done!
It`s not!
It`s done!
It`s not!
It`s done!
It`s not!
It`s done!
It`s not!
It`s done!
It`s not!
It`s done!
It`s not!
It`s done!
M-Meifon!
Yes!
She signed it! She signed it!
You see! We have a contract!
Why did you just sign it like that?
Haven`t you been listening to what`s going on?
I`ve been listening.
As long as we sign it, it`s our responsibility, right?
Let`s go get that shipment back.
Get it back?!
Well, you can just pay me cash.
We have our own way of resolving these things.
The contract doesn`t say anything about how we do it.
The contract is finalized.
Uh, I see...
This is the ""Outside"".
This is where...
...destitute, vagrant pirates without ships end up.
They use the Outside as a base...
...and occasionally emerge to engage in their plundering.
This incident is without doubt their doing.
And the one who controls this world is this man...
...Cyrus.
He`s also a former pirate.
He`s the one who built up the Outside to what it is now.
Please take a look at this.
An airline route map.
And this is a map of the subway system.
You can see that the lines form an empty space here.
This is the Outside.
Not only does Cyrus control the surface...
...but he also controls above and below it.
The railway department of the Links Group...
...tried to purchase the land...
...but to no avail.
Oh, I see....
I wondered why the subway takes such a roundabout route.
If they could cut through that, my commute would be faster.
Me too! Me too!
I hate that!
Does this Cyrus guy have that much power?
According to rumor, he`s a Tao user.
Tao, huh?
We don`t know the extent of his power...
...but nobody who has gone into the Outside has returned alive.
So, my conclusion:
Let`s not do it.
We can compensate the client with cash.
We have 30 minutes. Let`s get ready.
W-Wait...!
What about Valeria and Duuz?
Right.
Their contract doesn`t require them to do any surface duty.
See you later.
Meifon.
My contract doesn`t require it either.
Aren`t you overdoing it?
I don`t want to die, you know.
The commander sure likes a fight.
I suppose.
But maybe that`s not all.
What?
Among the containers plundered...
...there was a container with personal belongings.
Like letters and stuffed animals.
So, what about it?
It probably reminded her of something.
The last birthday presents that were sent to her...
...from her grandfather before he died.
Apparently it never reached her because of pirates.
The commander said...
...that shipments which cannot be compensated...
...with cash are given the highest priority.
Wow! The commander has such a cool attitude!
But I think her real motive is to get into a good fight.
Pretty bad pavement here.
I`ll have to wash my hair later.
If you still have your head.
Can I have a moment with you?
I`ve got free time if that`s what you`re asking.
And a free bed as well.
Well, that`s perfect then.
I want you to take us to Cyrus.
Why?
A shipment of ours was taken by some people here.
We want to get it back.
Get it back?
A shipment?
Well, that`s just the funniest thing.
You waltz in here all chipper and positive...
You`re either a complete idiot, or a real hard case.
It`s the latter. Now, tell me.
Ow! Ow! Ow!
Ow! Ow...!
Ow...!
Captain Cyrus!
Someone wants to see you!
Captain Cyrus!
Captain?
He doesn`t even have a ship.
What`s the ruckus?
This guy creeps me out.
He is a Tao user! There`s no mistake!
You don`t have to yell. I knew about you...
...from the moment you stepped in.
If you knew about us then we can make this quick.
I want my shipment back.
All of it.
You think I`m just going to hand it back because you ask?
I`m not returning your shipment.
And I won`t be returning you as well.
I was wondering what I`d do if you simply handed it back.
I would`ve missed out on the fun of cleaning this place up.
This world is my ship.
I will never, ever, ever, allow you to leave this place.
Please fire on them!
Meifon.
From the moment you set foot on my world...
...your lives were finished.
Taffei!
We`re gonna have some real fun for a change!
Sorry to keep you waiting, Kosei.
You were so late. I was about to go home.
Bakwa Sanfa... Bakwa Sanfa...
Oh, come on. We`ve come this far.
Bakwa Sanfa...
Let`s just take our time.
If you like this so much, then you can do it alone.
Bakwa Sanfa... Bakwa Sanfa... Bakwa Sanfa...
Feigaa!
Wha...?!
Watch out for my foot!
My foot! My foot!
Cyrus!
Feigaa!
This must be... This must be his Tao form.
Feigaa!
That was easy.
Feigaa!
Let`s split up!
Let`s get away from anywhere there`s soil.
Bakwa Sanfa... Bakwa Sanfa... Bakwa Sanfa...
Feigaa!
We should be okay here.
Yeah.
We lost him.
Watch your head!
Meifon!
It`s over.
Mei-Meifon...
You`re sure full of confidence.
But you cannot win against me.
Kosei, you can get out of here if you want.
I can`t leave you here by yourself.
And you weren`t into this in the first place.
There`s no turning back now.
Besides...
...that attack before...
Are you all right?
Yeah, I seem to be all right.
Like I said, it`s over now.
Va-Valeria...?!
How did..?
And Duuz!
The occasional surface battle isn`t a bad thing.
Then everyone...
...Iet`s do this for real!
Bakwa Sanfa... Bakwa Sanfa...
We`ll never get very far!
We`ll run out of strength and that`ll be the end of it.
I`m just going to borrow it.
There`s not much energy left in that.
Damn you!
Just as I thought.
What? What do you mean?
I`ve seen a Tao like this one before.
It uses the ground seams to make forms out of soil.
Seams? Through the ground?
I see.
There`s no subway here since it would disturb the seams.
Oh, right...
So, how should we go about disturbing the seams?
Hey, you guys...
To think they knew about the seams.
But that`s merely a final revelation.
I`ll put an end to them.
There!
All right!
Now! Run!
This way, you guys! Hurry!
You can run as much as you want, but it`s useless.
I can see it all.
Damn! Don`t tell me this is it!
It`s time to give it up.
This is my win.
Links cannon! Fire!
There!
Something from above...?!
Get it? A spaceship!
Sp-Space ship?!
I hope that was all right...
...firing the Links cannon onto the surface like that.
Should be all right.
It`s pinpoint accurate.
Besides, it`s already done.
That`s right!
Then how about another one!
Why, you... What are you thinking?!
This is what`s it`s about.
Wh-What`s going on here...?!
Are you sure this is all right, boss?
Building a subway like this?
It`s okay.
Just go for it.
Subway...?!
That`s right.
A long-awaited subway line is going to be built through here...
...by the Links Group.
Stop it!
Hey!
But are you sure this is okay?
It may be a criminal`s property, but it`s still private.
I`ll compensate them for it.
And I already have employment plans for people who live here.
There`re going to run this subway line.
What?
Only if that`s what they want.
The Outside...
My ship...
I want my shipment back.
Why, you!
How dare you mess up my ship!
What are you talking about, ""your ship""?!
Enough with that playing pirate!
Your Tao only works where there`s soil!
I bet you were just some third-rate pirate in space.
You`re lucky you found a spot of soil!
Don`t` say that! Don`t say that! Don`t say that!
I am a captain...!
You can spend some time behind concrete and steel bars.
Meifon! I found the shipment!
The container with the artwork was left intact...
...but this one was about to be dumped.
It must be a birthday present for someone.
Thank goodness.
Meifon! Hey, Meifon! Come on!
What? You want data on Angel Links?
That`s right.
I would very much like to borrow your strength for this.
Since it`s a request from a gentleman friend...
All right.
I`ll give you the 3rd Special Forces.
Will that do?
Thank you.
As a token of my gratitude...
...I`d like to send those armaments to you.
May we always be friends.
Y es.
On the other side of the moon
What is being hidden?
Stuffed with secrets
The soul is a treasure chest
Someday, I`ll be kissed and...
When the key opens the way
Will the happiness
Really last forever?
Something will suddenly collapse
Over and over deep in my life
And then I can never return
Yesterday`s feelings fade away
If I can live without stopping a thing
I just want to know what makes the moon move
Next time...
