"This strange story began on a blistering hot day." "I had received an unexpected mail from an old acquaintance of mine but the message was just this:" ""Seek the sacred beast from Anzan"." ""I am at the meeting place of the four gods"." "Pao, the sender of the message, was an acquaintance of mine but it didn't mean that we had kept in touch." "I grew suspicious, and started to research Pao's current whereabouts." "They say that Pao is one of the three greatest Feng Shui masters here on Mars..." "But when I discovered his location, he was already gone from this world..." "Are you sure you weren't the one that sent me this mail?" "The one who visits from the inauspicious back door..." "Receive the word from the heavens, and lead me to the sun stone..." "So the pa-kua divination is true!" "Look out!" "Where are you shooting!" "?" "They sure are disrespectful fellows." "The escape route!" "Hey...?" "Hey, hey!" "Idiot!" "Shit!" "Hey, hey, hey!" "Escape!" "Chi of Earth!" "Hey!" "That was really close!" "I'm glad we're safe." "What are you doing?" "Hey, over there..." "Who is that?" "I wonder if she's a new girlfriend." "For that, she's rather young." "Weird one, hot dog bun, loved one!" "Maybe she's his secret love child?" "For that, she's rather old." "Child, mild, wild!" "But I'm surprised." "I wasn't expecting Pao's daughter to be this old already..." "You probably don't remember but I met you once when you were this little." "How do you know my father?" "How?" "Just an acquaintance." "It's been 10 years already." "But your father sure was unlucky to be in an aerospace accident..." "On the way to Jupiter, there was a sudden fluctuation in hyperspace..." "Here you go." "Thank you." "Are you the "girlfriend"?" "Are you the "secret love child"?" "Rejected!" "Mr. Jet, why were you at the graveyard?" "Nobody outside the family knows he got into an accident..." ""Seek the sacred beast from Anzan"." ""I am at the meeting place of the four gods"." "This is...?" "Pao sent me this." "When was that?" "Three days ago." "Right before the accident..." "Please!" "Can you help me!" "?" "I'm sure this is the whereabouts of the sun stone!" "Sun stone?" "The direction, day, and time you arrived was the best combination for Feng Shui!" "Especially when you're searching for something!" "I-It was?" "It was!" "Please, Mr.Jet!" "Yes." "About that, we will have it soon." "Yes, I understand." "How was the boss feeling?" "Well..." "There's no way it could be good." "Of course not..." "Let's go!" "I didn't have any particular favours to repay to Pao or this girl but I decided to help them for now." "There were too many things that made me suspicious to leave it alone." "Why did Pao send me mail right before his death?" "What do those words mean?" "Who were those guys that attacked us?" "And there was something about this girl named Meifa as well..." "This universe is made of three different Chis." "One is the Chi of Heaven, the energy that comes from the Sun." "One is the Chi of Earth, the energy that comes from a planet's surface." "And lastly Chi of Magnetism, the Chi that organisms like ourselves produce." "Chi from organisms?" "The human body always produces a magnetic field." "That magnetic field and the magnetic field of the Earth react to one another to create energy." "Universal Feng Shui is a method that reads the energies of nature such as this to use them in everyday life." "Ice cream." "Universal Feng Shui..." "It's not the same thing as fortune-telling?" "Other fortune-telling methods only predict or prognosticate." "However, Universal Feng Shui has the power to make the bad into the good." "For example, if you were a Feng Shui master as powerful as my father..." "What's wrong?" "I just realized that I never spent time like this with my father..." "Hey, now." "Let me point out that I'm not that old." "If anything, I would be a boyfriend..." "No, wait, that would be bad." "W-What am I saying?" "At least I can be an elder brother or something..." "Ice cream..." "ICE cream." "Let's go, Mr. Jet!" "I believe that "Anzan" refers to here." "The Mountain Hotel Building..." "There!" "Seiryu!" "(Blue Dragon)" "Byakko!" "(White Tiger)" "Genbu!" "(Black Turtle)" "Suzaku!" "(Scarlet Phoenix)" "Hey..." "I know, the cross-zenith method!" "The sun stone is here!" "Are you sure...?" "There they are." "They're right over there." "All right." "I finally found it..." "This must be the sun stone." "This thing?" "Mr. Jet?" "Outta the way." "What are you doing?" "One bottle of lao-chu." "I don't need a glass." "Take that!" "Hey, who are you guys?" "Heh, you think we would tell you that easily..." "W-We're from the Blue Snake..." "So you ARE from a syndicate..." "Why are you following us around?" "I-I couldn't tell you that even if you killed me..." "I-lt was because we couldn't get Pao..." "So they told us to get the recipient of his mail..." "I-l'm telling the truth!" "We're on the low end so we don't know any more than that!" "I'm sure." "Mr. Jet..." "My father... is alive?" "Pao's words showed where this stone was." "Does that mean Pao is still alive somewhere?" "Did he want me to find this stone and do something with it?" "It feels like I created more mysteries instead of solving them." "For now, I decided to check out this stone, which was our only clue." "So this is a piece of the moon from that Gate accident 50 years ago..." "We Feng Shui masters call it the sun stone." "It's absorbed the fluctuations in time and space and conceals a tremendous amount of energy." "I can only think of it as a plain old rock..." "So, how much would it be if we sold it?" "Hey, guys, if you're gonna smoke, go smoke outside." "What?" "You always smoke in here too!" "I'm turning this into a non smoking area starting today." "Hey, now, you're kidding, right?" "This ship is MY ship, remember?" "So, what are you gonna do with this stone?" "I... have no idea." "I don't know what my father is thinking..." "Oh, hey, wait!" "Ein!" "Wait!" "The luo-pan..." "What?" "That can't be..." "I took the magnet off..." "I see..." "I get it now..." "So that's it!" "THAT'S IT!" "If I remember correctly, my father owned a sun stone as well." "I'm sure that the two stones are resonating to show me the whereabouts of my father." "And that's why Pao made you look for this stone..." "But..." "I don't know why my father sent the mail to you, Mr. Jet and not to me..." "What do you think?" "They make a good couple." "It's a dangerous combination." "What is?" "The more righteous a guy was in his youth the more likely he's gonna fall for a young girl later in life." "Is that so?" "Really..." "Guys are so clueless." "My father was one that believed in Universal Feng Shui, but not other people..." "So my mother left the house, and took me along." "That was seven years ago..." "I'm sure my father was able to find our whereabouts easily." "But he never even tried to look for us..." "I'm sure there was a reason behind it." "Why was my father targeted by those men?" "Was it because he was friends with bad people?" "Please, tell me the truth!" "Who my father really was..." "Pao... was the consultant for a syndicate." "That's the truth." "Pao had leaked information to me about the syndicate, back when I was a detective." "Pao already wanted out of the syndicate back then." "However, it's impossible for someone who knows important syndicate secrets to ever leave the group." "I'm sure Pao was afraid that more bad things would happen to his family." "Well, I'm sure you can confirm it all when you see him." "Here!" "Around here..." "There isn't anything here." "How about the radar?" "No response." "That can't be..." "I'm sure this is the place..." "Hmm?" "Wait..." "Hold on..." "Do we have guests?" "They sure are persistent." "Spike, Faye, please take care of them!" "Aren't they YOUR guests?" "Help me out if you don't wanna die with this ship!" "What rotten luck of the draw." "Sometimes it's good to act without asking "What's in it for me"?" "We're fairies who are going to grant the princess' wish." "We are?" "Unmanned fighters...?" "So these would be the seven dwarves..." "Shit!" "They're trying to scare us!" "I got it!" "Spike!" "Come back here!" "What!" "?" "Apparently, if we apply lots of energy to that stone we can draw out all the forces trapped inside it." "And what are we going to do?" "This is an all-or-nothing plan, but..." "I don't care what it is, just hurry!" "I put it in!" "All right!" "Blast this rock with your plasma cannon." "What a great plan this is..." "Looks like you made it in time, Jet..." "Pao!" "You're..." "Meifa..." "It's been a while." "Pao, you're in unstable territory." "I can't approach any closer than this." "I know..." "There isn't any oxygen left in here anyway." "I sent you that mail because I wanted you to bring my daughter here..." "So... you're trying to tell me that you used Feng Shui to bring us here?" "!" "Yeah..." "That's not true, Pao." "This wasn't your doing." "Meifa is here now because she WANTED to come here." "You might be right." "Perhaps I was being too conceited..." "Meifa... it's wonderful to see you one last time..." "I hated you all this time..." "I despised you all this time..." "But..." "Papa..." "Now, I don't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing that we took her along." "In any case, this was how this strange case ended." "She went back to Mars." "And the smoking ban was lifted from the living quarters." "Once again, unchanging daily life has returned, just as it was before." "One thing that has changed, though..." "I no longer read the fortune-telling pages in magazines." "Too much time has passed by to lament that we were deeply in love." "The wind keeps blowing, while my heart cannot heal all the tears in it." "Someone, cry for me with parched eyes." "The real folk blues." "I only want to know what true sadness is." "Sitting in muddywater isn't such a bad life if it ends after the first time..." "He... came with a whistle." "A man, Andy, made a sudden appearance on horseback." "Who in the world is he?" "Is he an ally, or a foe?" "Or is he a true cowboy?" "The next episode is a shocking sci-fi spaghetti-western epic saga:" "Cowboy Funk." "Wait a minute, isn't this mixing up our genres a bit?"
