Gene Starwind. What are you looking for?

Where is the object of your desire?

What will satisfy you?

Gene Starwind, are you going to live, or will you die here?

The decision is yours.

That's the only certain thing in life!

Believe in yourself and forge your own destiny!

Don't fear failure! You have nothing to lose.

Being young is about acquiring things.

You've come into possession of the Outlaw Star and Melfina.

The only question now is how you will use them.

Go to the Galactic Leyline! No one can stop you.

Adventure is waiting for you!

You should understand this by now.

Gene Starwind, time is running out!

Open your eyes, shout out, and continue forwards!

Gene Starwind, this is the beginning of your story!

Gene...

The needles went right through,

but the wounds are festering.

It looks like the needles were poisoned.

Poisoned?

We need the antidote.

What should we do?

The enemy may intend to use this situation to make us negotiate.

Please pardon the interruption.

A transmission is coming in from outside.

Put it through!

Hello! How's Captain Gene doing?

If his blood isn't cleansed, he won't last until nightfall.

Forced Departure

If everyone leaves the ship, I'll give you the antidote.

The antidote?

Forget it, Jim...

Gene!

Do you think they'll let us walk away from this?

He still seems to be in high spirits... Well, what will you do?

Gilliam! End transmission!

How amusing...

It's me. Things are going to get a little noisy soon.

Just look the other way, and you'll be greatly rewarded.

Let's go.

Gene! What're we gonna do?

I'm in agreement with Gene as far as the pirates are concerned.

But if something isn't done, he'll...

I'm not certain if they actually have an antidote,

but it looks like our only option is to go and steal it.

Okay, I'm coming, too!

Wait!

I might be able to do it.

Do what?

We're counting on you, Melfina...

I'll try.

Warning! The enemy is closing in.

Gilliam! Bring up all systems!

Without Melfina's assistance, we have a limited number of systems to use.

I understand. Put the enemy up on the monitor.

Give me a close up.

We're here to sell you the antidote.

We're not gonna hand over the ship! If you come any closer, I'll shoot!

Oh, my... Are you giving up on Captain Gene's life, then?

I bet he's in a lot of pain right now.

Gene...

Dad! I've learned all the controls!

Dad!

I want you to live, Gene!

Dad!

Good luck!

DAD!

I... I'm alone.

Gene.

Gene.

Gene.

You're not alone.

Melfina...

Gene, I'll heal you.

Open your heart...

Gene...

Gene...

Gene...

Gene...

Gene...

It's all right. I understand.

It looks like I can be of some use to you.

I can save you, Gene.

Some strange weapons are approaching!

What's that?

Just hold them here.

Well, I guess I don't mind if you damage it a bit.

It's the pirates' prized mechanized soldiers.

Damn!

Beams don't work! But they're too close to use missiles!

Jim, I have a call from Mr. Luo in Hugo.

Now? Put him through!

Hi, Jim! You're as cute as ever!

What do you want? We're a little busy right now!

Where's Gene?

He can't come to the phone right now.

I'll tell you, then.

Several Kei pirate ships are headed here to Sentinel III,

and will reach West Virginia Spaceport soon.

But aren't we in Ban territory?

That's just it.

For them to ask me to broker a deal out here on the frontier...

...means they're probably going to start a big fuss.

How do you know that?

Well, uh... Acting as an intermediary is my job, you see.

Turning them down would've been bad for business,

but I didn't want to ruin our relationship, so I decided to call you!

Thanks for the warning! End transmission!

Damn it!

Enemy has latched on to ship exterior.

What should I do?!

Sorry I kept you waiting.

Gene!

Jim, give me the pilot's seat.

But your wounds haven't closed yet...

You got rid of the poison, right? I can grin and bear the rest.

Thanks, Melfina. You saved my life.

It was nothing.

The enemy weapons are trying to force open the hatch!

I'll take back the XGP!

The ship is now in danger due to enemy attack!

I know, I know...

Once Melfina's back, we're blasting our way out of here.

All systems green.

That's what I've been waiting for.

Bastard!

What kind of Grappler Arms are those?!

But if they can't reach the target, they're useless...

Coward.

Can you hear me, Gene? This one is mine.

What does she think she can do against me?

What the...?!

Show-off.

It's over.

Spare me! I... I...

You are a coward, aren't you?

Not bad, Suzuka.

If it's a Kei pirate I'm fighting...

That's good to know. Anyway, it's about time to blast off.

I'd ask a Ctarl-Ctarl for help at this point. Come back inside!

This is the control tower!

Dock 26, Outlaw Star, what's going on over there?!

Nothing serious. We will now blast off.

Send us your weather data and flight conditions.

Negative! I won't give you launch clearance!

We've verified that there has been a disturbance on the launch pad!

The Outlaw Star will be checked over by port authorities.

- Hold your present position. - Like hell!

Release all systems from standby mode!

Begin transfer to navigation mode!

What are you planning to do?

Blast off without guidance from the control tower.

The container's been loaded!

CFS activated. Newton reactor coming online.

Systems show normal.

All verniers show normal.

My crew is a bunch of lunatics...

I've hacked their weather data. I'm sending it over to your screen.

Ether drive system operational.

Sub ether drive system operational. System shows green.

Engine operation verified.

We're receiving a transmission from the control tower.

Gene Starwind, come out of that ship immediately!

The police will place you under arrest!

Do you realize what you're doing?!

What are we gonna do, Gene?

I guess we can't come back to Sentinel...

Let's blow 'em off and get out of here.

Is that okay with you, Suzuka?

I'll accompany you.

If you hang around down there, you're gonna get burned!

Let's go, Jim!

You got it!

Ready, Melfina?

Ready!

Gravity cycle unit operational. System shows green.

Gene Starwind, stop! Don't do it!

Bite me!

I see you're really going through with this...

Ship is airtight.

All navigation data nominal!

Life support systems show normal.

All controls show green.

All systems green!

Engine output stable. Commencing countdown.

T-minus-30 to launch.

T-minus-20.

So my journey's finally beginning, huh?

Goodbye, Hilda.

T-minus-10.

Eight.

Seven.

Six.

Five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One.

Zero.

Let's do it!

Ship roll complete!

Dad! When I grow up, I'm gonna be a spaceship pilot!

Really? Well, if you work hard, maybe you will be.

Yeah! I'm gonna do it!

We've exited the atmosphere. Please put us into orbit.

We have successfully completed planetary launch.

We did it!

Of course we did! I'm awesome at whatever I do!

Yeah, whatever...

What amusing people...

Congratulations, Gene. I'm sorry to interrupt your festivities, but...

What?

Warning! Ships are closing in on our position!

Pirates?

Distance, 20,000. They seem to have spotted us.

Gakkie! Onok! You see 'em? We attack in two minutes!

So the guys on the ground screwed up, huh?

Hey, it's fine with me! Let's have some fun!

They aren't responding to our hails.

It's a jammer. It looks like they're pirate Grappler Ships.

Gene...

Prepare for Grappler combat!

Gilliam, how do I use these weapons?

Once you release the safeties, they should arm themselves.

Are you sure about this? You've never done it before!

Don't worry. When it comes to Manipulators, I'm first-class!

Anyway, give me support to let me pull this off, partner!

Now transferring to Grappler combat mode.

Combat will begin in 30 seconds.

Gotcha! Jim, scatter the camera pods!

Right!

Here goes...

The enemy ships are deploying cameras, as well.

As I thought, they're Grappler Ships.

Enemy has launched multiple missiles!

Launching antimissile missiles!

Let's do it!

Tryin' to act tough, huh? You're history!

Damn, I'm hit!

You okay, Onok?

Yeah, I'll get him!

You think you're a match for me with a gun?!

- It's not firing! - The magazine's empty!

You have to swap it with a spare! It'll take one minute!

You handle it! For now, let's go hand-to-hand!

Let's do it, Gakkie!

Yeah! I'll buy us a round when we get back!

Bastard!

Got 'em!

There's still one left.

Abnormality in engine 2.

Output has dropped 30%.

Understood! I'll finish this guy off fast!

You killed Onok and Gakkie, you bastard!

You're dead meat!

Bastard!

This guy's...pretty good...

You did it, Gene!

Now standing down from combat mode.

Man, that was a good workout... I wanna hit the baths!

Gene, well done.

Thanks, Mel.

It was nothing. You did all the work.

Well done, everyone.

We have exited the gravity well of Sentinel III.

Shall I prepare to go to sub-ether drive?

Okay...Let's go to Heifong.

Why there?

Heifong is the Ban pirates' territory.

Those Kei guys probably won't come after us, right?

That's not for certain.

But Heifong's got big cities, so maybe we can find a big job there.

A job?

How else can we pay for this thing's maintenance, repairs, and ammo?

You're right...

We sure inherited a big pain in the ass...

I beg your pardon, but I'm Gilliam II, not "a big pain in the ass."

and the ship's name is the Outlaw Star.

Do you mind if I lay in a course for Heifong?

Sure, go ahead. It's a trip of about 20 light years.

Bye, Sentinel III!

One soundless midday,

the wind was fresh and clean,

and the flower petals swayed

hanabira ga yureta

as if they were asleep.

This serene feeling...

Tell me what's the name people give it?

Tell me a story

let me hear it as gently

as light shining down.

Next Episode

Surviving the biggest crisis of your life is all well and good,

but you oughta remember that you'll have nothing to do afterwards!

Is this that "world-weary" deal I've heard about?

Well, at a time like this, raising some hell and doing a job...

...is the best medicine, ain't it, Jim?

What are you mad about?

Next time on Outlaw Star! "A Journey of Adventure! Huh?"

You better get ready!

A Journey \h\h\h\h\h\hof Adventure! Huh?
