A long, long, really super long time ago, the plug got\Npulled right out from under the world we live in.
It was a long, long time ago.
With nothing holding it in anymore,\Nthe whole ocean just drained away.
A hole opened up under our world one day.
All it left behind was a dry, barren landscape.
And it drained the oceans.
It forced us to live quiet, meager lives.\NBut we still manage to get by in our own ways.
We were left with only barren land.
Then, some other day forever and ever ago, but maybe\Nnot really all that long ago, a hole opened up in the sky.
There was nothing we could do but to accept it.
And in through that hole came what we call "airplanes."
We lived on with what we had.
They belonged to the Yufang people\Nwho lived on the other side.
And then, the day came.
The Yufang came in great numbers,\Nand they hired people here to work for them.
It was a long, long ago, but not that long.
They brought their aircraft and a bit\Nof economic rejuvenation into our lives.
A hole opened up in the sky.
Until one day when, out of the blue,\Nthe Yufang quickly began packing up to leave.
After that, those things known as "aircraft" came through.
It was a hectic event as they scrambled to take off,
Those aircraft belonged to the people from Yufang on the other side of the hole.
abandoning so much of what\Nthey had brought with them.
Since then, many more of their people came across.
Soon after, the hole closed up and\Nwe were left cut off from the Yufang world.
They hired us to work for them.
Some people say they rushed to get home\Nbecause they saw the hole shrinking.
The Yufang brought us aircraft and revitalized our lives.
Others think they had to head back because\Nthey were losing some war on the other side.
However, the Yufang suddenly hurried back one day.
But no one really knows for sure.
There was a panic, and they left many of their stuff behind.
Once they were gone, all sorts of crooks and heroes,
The hole closed soon after.
con-artists and plain ol' jerks stirred up\Na frenzy to claim what was left behind.
And our contact with the Yufang ended.
People lost sight of who was friend or foe.\NWho was right and who was wrong.
Some said they went back because the hole was about to close up.
Until someone, caught in a real pickle,\Nbet it all on one all-out hit.
Others said they were about to lose a war on the other side of the hole.
The battle swallowed up the whole world,
No one knew for sure.
going down as the biggest in all history,\Nlater dubbed the "Linouchi Air War."
After the Yufang left, there was a fight\Nto seize what they had left behind.
The end of that battle brought peace to the world\Nat last and we all lived happily ever after.
The bad, the good, the scammers, the scumbags,\Neveryone was fighting to have a share of it.
Just kidding, the squabbling never ended and\Nthere are as many sky pirates today as ever.
Who was hostile? Who was friendly?\NWho was in the right? It was a complete mess.
The world is wild, ruthless, and unjust.
Some who were caught in the mess wished to turn the tide and took a gamble.
But while I wouldn't say I love it,\Nwe still manage to get by in our own ways.
This battle plunged the whole world into an unprecedented war.
That's the world we live in.
It was later known as the "Rinouchi War".
Ijitsu.
After that, the disputes subsided.
You sure do know the absolute\Nworst way to enjoy a beer.
And peace returned once again.
I've waited tables, danced stages,\Npeddled goods on the street,
Congratulations. Congratulations.
but there's really nothing out there I feel a calling for.
If only that was the case.
It's funny.
Minor disputes continued. And air pirates were just as abundant.
Here I am, struggling to be who I imagine myself to be,\Nwhile you could be anything yet choose nothing.
The world became barbaric, without empathy or reason.
Well then.
Although people were upset, their lives continued that way.
Why don't you take my hand\Nand show me where I belong?
This is the world we live in.
An anti-air pirate force?
"Ijitsu".
There's a place in my home town\Ncalled the Ouni Company.
You sure know the worst way of drinking it.
They contacted me looking for fighter pilots.
Waitress, dancer, hawker, I've tried everything.
Sounds like quite the opportunity.\NLet's take them up on it, Reona.
But there's nothing I want to do.
I'm sure it pays better than flying around\Nas a couple of transporters.
Unbelievable.
Without a doubt. But it's not something\Njust the two of us can pull off.
Here, right before someone who can't reached their dream...
I see... It will certainly be lonely with you gone.
There's someone who can do anything, but without any passion.
I'm truly sorry, Tamil, but I simply must put myself\Nto work to help my family eke out a living.
Then...
Promise you'll call for me if you are\Never in need. I truly mean it, Emma.
Can you take my hand, and bring me along?
I will. Thank you.
Defending against air pirates?
If you're building yourself an air squadron,\NI'd recommend taking my sister in my place.
There's this Ouni Company from where I live.
I'd rather focus on my research.
They were looking for fighter pilots, and asked me to join.
Is she experienced? Not at all, but Kate will out-perform\Nme before you know it. That I can guarantee.
That sounds great.
All right, it's settled, then.
Let's take the job, Reona.
Experienced at what?
We'd get better pay than doing simple delivery runs.
Piloting a fighter plane.
That's true.
Getting to know something you're unfamiliar\Nwith will be good for you.
But it won't be enough with just the two of us.
Very well, then.
Is that so? It'll be lonely with you leaving.
The hell's that? That bird's lookin' to crash.
I'm sorry, Tamil.
Maybe not.
I must work in order to feed my family.
Well color me surprised.
Contact me if you need anything.
Not everyone can pull that off flying against Reona.
I'll always be there for you, Emma.
Out northwest?
Thank you.
Yes, I'm looking to increase our air routes next month.
Reona, about joining the squadron, I'd recommend my sister.
That quadrant is full of pirates.
I wanna focus on my studies.
If your team were only a tad larger, I'd be willing\Nto take you on as our official flight corps.
Experience?
It does sound like a bit much for just the four of us.
None whatsoever. But Kate will become a much better pilot than I am. You have my word.
That air pirate...
All right, please take care of her.
They're as good as done for\Nyet they simply refuse to give.
Experience with what?
Leave 'em be. They're out of ammo\Nand shot up real good.
With controlling a fighter plane.
They'll break off eventually.
Learning more about what you don't know will help you grow, Kate.
Really, now?! Takes guts to fly straight\Nto your death like that!
Okay.
Alright boys, time to crank an inertia handle up\Nthat pirate's butt and roast 'em like a shish kebab!
What is she doing? She's about to crash.
Wait for it.
That's amazing.
Reona's up against a talented pilot. An outstanding one, to say the least.
The Northwest?
Yes.
I plan on expanding our delivery routes next month.
That air space is filled with air pirates.
If we have more pilots, then I could hire you girls as a proper squadron.
Indeed, our numbers still leave much to be desired.
We've got a pirate following.
I thought we've taken it out. How is it still flying?
Ignore it. It's out of ammo and trailing smoke.
We'll shake it off.
You've gotta be kidding!
You've got guts coming in here! Men, crank your inertia handle up their butt, and we'll roast it!
Roger!
As you wish!
As you wish!
Roger!
A kid?
Wuzzat? A kid?
I'm not a kid!
I'm no kid! You buncha riffraffs\Nbetter call me Miss Chika!
Call me Madam Chika, you small fries!
Just full o' surprises ain't she?
Well, my, my...
I like the way you fly, so I'm gonna let you work with me!
You're good. I'll let you be my companions!
You what?
Taking me head on with just four planes, you've got quite the guts!
The way you flew into battle with\Njust four planes like that takes guts!
Do you even know what small fries means?
Where did you even learn a word like "riffraff?"
Of course I do! I learned it all from See the Sea!
I'm not stupid, okay! I learned about it in "See the Sea"\Nand it means all sorts of unimportant people and stuff!
It means all those who are simply irrelevant!
Sheesh, in weather like this?
Hey, that's quite dangerous.
Is that...?
Is that...
Someone you know?
Someone you know?
I imagine that's my cherry blossom thief.
That's probably the sakura thief.
Meaning...?
A sakura thief?
This is so good! Nothing beats a good pancake!
Delish! Pancakes are awesome!
Goodness, Kylie, you're eating those again?
Kylie, I see you're having pancakes again.
Don't you ever grow tired of them?
You sure don't get sick of them, huh?
Long time no see, Emma.\NHow long you been back in Rahama?
It's been a long time, Emma.
And... who the heck are they?
Since when did you return to Rahama?
I'm here with a business proposal for you today.
Hold on, who are they?
I'll pass.
I'm here to recommend a job to you today.
Have you spared even a thought for your own future?
I refuse.
Future? What's that? Sounds awful.
Have you ever think about your future?
I'm good on my own. Not looking for a team.
The future? What's that? Sounds off-putting.
And how could you?\NYou'd have to be cooperative to fly in a squad.
I'm fine all by myself.
Seems like just what you lack.
I don't plan on teaming up with others.
Who's short-stuff over there?
As expected. After all, cooperation is required in a squadron.
If you're looking to live easy all on your own,\NI'd suggest you watch your mouth.
You're simply not up to the task.
Unless you're looking for an unnecessary fight.
Who's this shorty?
And who even asked you, shorty?
If you're gonna be all alone, you better watch your mouth.
I think it's time for you to\Ngo home to your picture books.
It'll save yourself some trouble.
Is that the only insult you know, dimwit?\NI told you to watch your mouth.
Mind your own business, shorty!
You're the one who better bite\Nthat tongue, you stupid shorty!
Hurry on home and read some picture books.
...shorty-head!
You can stop with the shorty insult, dimwit!
You got any brains in there?
Do I have to teach you to speak properly?
Didn't anyone ever tell you only idiots\Ngo around calling people names?
You're the one who needs to be taught! Stupid! Shorty!
My, my, they've certainly got spunk.
Stu-orty!
Well you're still just a dumb little idiotic tiny short idiot!
Do you have a screw loose?
You're telling me.
Oh my, what a lively duo.
I know you are, but what am I?
I’ve had it.
Super short!
That's enough!
Shut up you idiot!
For all the damages you've done, that'd be about 963 pounds and 21 sen.
Enough!
Splitting it two ways would mean around 480 pounds for the each of you.
Your little tantrum cost this place\N963 pounds and 21 sen.
It's her fault!
That's about 480 each, even if you split it two ways.
Excuse me?!
It was her fault.
You like planes, right?
How can you even say that?!
So-so.
You like planes, don't you?
What about flying?
Not particularly.
I like it.
How about flying?
How about losing?
I enjoy it.
Hate it!
And losing?
That was an excellent landing earlier.
I hate it!
Well, that's nothing special.
I'll admit that landing you made earlier was impressive.
I can do that, too.
Yeah?!
Lies! You're lying!
I mean, anyone coulda done that.
Rather than flying solo, it'd be more fun flying together.
I definitely could.
You'd become stronger.
Yeah, nope! Don't believe that!
Give it a try.
Flying as part of a team is even more fun than flying solo.
After all, we're just a bunch of weirdos who happened to come across one another.
You'll get even better, too.
Kylie.
Why not give it a try?
Don't forget about the sakura. I'm still waiting for you to pay up.
We're just a ragtag group of misfits, anyway.
This alarm is an automatic alert set off by readings on our radar.
