You must not let go of your dreams
And never turn your gaze away
Yet even still love may cloud up and fade away
And even though you comforted your love
When he was feeling down
Sadness was still weighing down his heavy heart
Hang tight onto your dreams - they're weapons in your arsenal
You'll find that you can get through anything at all
So never cry -you know I will always be watching over you
What I love about you is your strong sense of fairness
So never cry -you know I will always be right there by your side
And so now you can face your future fearlessly
- What's that? - What now?
Look!
No! This is terrible!
A calamity!
Yeah, that hole's a real pain in the butt.
The experts are coming and going examining the thing.
That's why we've fallen behind.
We'd be better off to just close off the damn hole.
It's become like the world's newest natural wonder.
"The mysterious caverns at the heart ofTokyo Geo City."
What do you mean?
Problems can be a blessing in disguise.
The company may want to open up the caverns to tourists.
Supervision here. Yeah?
What? Another cavern's opened up?
Yeah, yeah. And?
Got it.
They've found an even larger cavern on the lower level.
Great. We can expect more "experts."
Old man, aren't you going for lunch?
Working too hard can kill ya!
What's going on? What happened?!
An underground city, you say!
Sounds like something straight out of an old science fiction movie!
It's called Tokyo Geo-City.
Between 100 and 200 meters underground.
Composed of several independent units.
They form a ring 40 kilometers in diameter in the underground network.
It's part ofTokyo's "Blueprint for the 21 st Century."
We're heading for the main central unit.
I definitely smell an adventure! Treasures, ghosts, time capsules!
What happened to your time capsule?
I forgot what I buried and where!
Yup, I'll bet the place is haunted!
Ghosts don't exist.
There it is: The fire department's Pyro Buster!
"We won't allow you to invade the holy ground"
I see.
So the man who stole underground isn't one of your workers.
Right.
It figures.
The fire department usually handles disaster relief with its own Labors.
I wondered why you called us. It seemed like an odd thing to do.
The terrorist smuggled a huge bomb down to the bottom level.
If that bomb goes off, it's the end of the Tokyo Geo project.
We'll have to start from scratch.
- What's that? - That?
During construction, we came across a huge limestone cave.
Surprising that such a wonder existed right here beneath Tokyo!
So this will be a very dangerous mission.
This is a live bomb. One wrong step, and...
BOOM!!
Let's try to avoid that, shall we?
Explosions suck.
What are you scared of, Izumi?
Don't worry, I'll be with you.
Yeah, I'll... Pardon?
You mean you're gonna pilot the Ingram?
Of course.
Captain...!
Kanuka trained in anti-terrorist procedure in New York.
She's also a bomb squad expert.
So this time, she'll be acting in command and on the front lines.
Besides, dealing with bombs calls for a calm composure.
Yeah, that too.
Izumi, you will follow Kanuka's orders and support unit 2.
Captain...!
You two might as well set out, I suppose.
C-Captain!
Here's a little present.
Block 8: Nothing here either.
Block 13 is next. A quick left, then bear right.
Roger.
Izumi, let's move. Take the lead.
Roger.
What's wrong?
Hear that? It sounded like a creature howling!
I'm only going to say this once.
This isn'tJules Verne's creation or the tomb of Masakado.
We won't find the buried treasure or ancient mysteries you're hoping for.
I found it!
- Stop! - Why?
It's a trap.
Bomb located. It has a trip wire.
We're about to disarm the device.
Roger.
- Pretty bad static. - They ARE underground.
They're doing better than I figured.
What, don't tell me you were worried, Shinohara?
Who me? Hardly!
They should be busting the perps! Isn't that what we're here for?!
- To catch the perps?! - Yeah, I guess you're right.
Nothing on radar. No heat signatures.
Looks like we're alone down here.
Don't push yourself too hard. If you can't do it, come on back.
Our job's not done until we apprehend the perpetrator.
She sure takes her work seriously.
You said there was a cave on the lowest level?
Yes, but I haven't had a chance to look at it yet.
I'm outta here. Shinohara, take over here.
Yamazaki, mind coming with me for a bit?
Me?
Captain, where are you going?
For a stroll with Hiromi.
Later.
Is he really a captain?
Yeah, in his own way.
There's only one possibility. The criminal must be back here.
What do we do now?
Pursue him, of course.
Shouldn't we come back later?
Who's in charge here, me or you?
Roger.
Busted.
Shouldn't we go back?
We came all this way down, so let's look around.
These look like they're from the Tokugawa era.
Kanuka!
What's wrong Noa? Come in!
Oh, my!
I almost wet myself when I saw you rise up from my sealed-up well!
You didn't bother with refreshments.
I was afraid you were the Dragon God, returned.
Dragon God?
In ancient times, a cruel dragon plagued this region.
Many samurai went to defeat it, but none ever returned.
But one day, a holy man happened by.
He used his holy powers to seal the dragon away inside this well.
Then those bones we saw...
were the samurai who tried to kill the Dragon God.
- Yes? - Captain!
I can't reach Noa and Kanuka!
- I've lost contact! - What?
Noa! Kanuka! Come in! Either of you!
What're they doing?!
This is exactly why I should've gone down there!
Be quiet!
Sea monster?
Yeah. My one bomb didn't go off.
But I still have one more ticking away in a different place.
It'll wipe out everything!
Sea monster, huh?
You must mean the operations tower in Tokyo Bay.
What do you mean?
Tokyo Geo-City has a lot of earth and sand to get rid of.
It's carted off through an underground tunnel...
and added to the artificial island of the Babylon Project.
The operations tower hoists the dirt up from the undersea tunnel.
An explosion there would open the tunnel to the sea.
The entire Geo City project would be flooded.
They'd have to start over from scratch.
Who told you?
What, you mean I'm right? It was just a wild guess!
It's atJonantoki, 1.2 km. Away.
Why you dirty little...!
What about Izumi and Kanuka?
The tunnel under construction connects to the lower level.
They might be trapped.
Are you okay, Kanuka?
The stabilizer in my right leg is trashed.
It was some kind of animal. It could attack us again.
Here it comes!
My Ingram can't walk.
I'll hold him off. You get out of here.
No way!
Officer Izumi, that's an order!
What are you doing?
I'm disobeying orders, that's what!
Grab onto this; it'll pull us outta here!
Hurry!
One shot left.
I have six.
You beast! You rotten beast!
Let's get outta here!
I knew we couldn't stop it.
Checkmate.
C'mon.
What is it?
There's another bomb here!
How much time's left?
Eighteen minutes.
We can't disarm it that quickly.
We can't let it explode here. Take it off.
Okay.
Take it with you! Hurry!
Kanuka, it's coming!
We'll have to make our stand here!
Noa, I can't forgive you for disobeying orders.
But thanks for saving my life. I'm grateful.
What do you expect?
We're teammates.
Time left?
Thirty-two seconds.
Oh no!
We did it!
Noa, are you okay? Come in! Respond!
So what did you say in your report?
Nothing.
They didn't find a body, and nobody would believe us anyway.
That's true.
Clearly, it was a descendant of the dragons from the middle ages.
It must have adapted to live in a subterranean environment.
That's the only rational explanation.
Let's just call it a giant monster. I've always wanted to see one!
Must you insist on pursuing juvenile fantasies?
How do you explain a dragon surviving the middle ages?!
I told you, it adapted to live underground!
Well what about his wife and children?
Wife?!
What makes you think it was male?
He had a deep voice!
What are they talking about?
Maybe they saw a dragon.
A dragon?
Hey, Noa, did you see a dragon?
Nope, it was a giant monster!
No, it was a mutant variation of the dragon species.
Captain, don't encourage them!
These people already have a loose grip on reality!
Did it look like a mythological beast?
It wasn't a mythological beast, it was a giant monster!
Just hold me tightly, Midnight Blue
If I can make it to the bus stop by midnight
I know I can do it, if only just once
Pulled into my dream I find that I wake up
Drenched in sweat and feeling lonely
I turn off the TV I've been listening to
Tomorrow I will spend the whole day
In the city of my dreams, amidst the old dust
I want to feel the main street beneath my feet soon
I plan to always look on the brighter side
Keep my chin up, look to the future
After all, there's only one path I can travel
Just hold me tightly, Midnight Blue
If I can make it to the bus stop by midnight
I know I can do it, if only just once
If I can make it to the bus stop by midnight
I know I can do it, if only just once
This story is fiction... but in 10 years, who knows?
The stupid fight between Noa and I has...
become serious and made our relationship worse.
At the same time...
A mysterious Labor attacks our training session with an outside defense company.
Moreover, the defense company's Labor, the Toyo Hatta Auto SRX79 was...
almost used by Division 1.
And it seems that some shady things are happening in Oojima desert.
Next time, "Dark Troubles Rising." Target, locked on!
