We've arrived, Lady.

Welcome to the palace of time.

I am Sheherazade, the storyteller of dreams.

My partner's body... no, her existence itself is gradually disappearing.

This is not an illness, the cause is probably...

So you want to send her into the spring of time?

That's right.

I want to find the cause before she completely disappears.

Use the Time Dive, let me dive into her time.

Adjusting time axis. Time depth locked to +/-0.

Time division, start!

I'll dive in her time now.

Please wait here.

Nope, I'm coming along.

It's dangerous.

The Time Dive means diving into a person's time itself.

Only death awaits these that lose to the time's pressure.

I'm counting on you to perform CPR when I drown.

This is...

Lady's past.

Each of these contains a part of time that has already passed.

A time... past?

That's me!

That's me before I changed my face!

That happened on Saturn...

I thought I was done for at that time.

It's emitting a blue light.

This represents a hard time.

'Hard time'?

Yes, each time emits a different light.

Times of sadness are in red.

Times of happiness shine gold.

But what is this?

What a strange color...

It's sad... and somehow gives off an aura of hope.

That purple time is...

That time... Could it be...

A migratory book, huh?

This planet is full of strange things.

Yes, the lives of the persons they saw are written here.

Look, this is my book.

What happened ten years ago...

What happened between us last night...

Everything is written.

Then we can't let children read it.

Migratory books.

They keep a record of person's lives and wander from planet to planet.

Just after that...

She got a deep wound during a firefight.

Cobra...

I'm not scared anymore.

Our memories are all written in that book.

My memory will travel space for eternity.

Lady...

Doctor Magellan, how is Lady?

Unfortunately, she only has one or two days left at most...

Didn't you say you were the universe's number one doctor?

Doctors are not gods.

Lady's life is in God's hands.

Isn't there a way to save Lady?

There is just one way.

Assimilation with live-metal.

Her mind will stay the same, while her body will be reborn.

We can't do that...

She doesn't wish for that kind of body.

On a planet of twilight...

A beautiful setting sun... A beautiful lake...

And the man I trust the most in the world...

With the pirate that calls me "Lady" watching over me...

My journey has ended.

Are you fine with that body?

I don't mind it.

The waist size is the same as before.

Chapter two:

With a blue shining live-metal body.

With a new body, a new life.

I was reborn as Armaroid Lady.

And now a new journey begins.

A new odyssey together with Cobra the pirate.

I can't see any temporal distortion in that area.

Let's dive deeper.

This is...

That's right.

This is where I found Lady.

What is that time vortex?

Time is being sucked away! What could have happened in that time?

Could this be the reason Lady's body is disappearing?

Looks like it.

I'll check out that vortex.

Cobra!

Don't go! The Time Dive's depth limit is set at 20 years!

A human can't stand that much time pressure while free diving!

That's nice, let's go for a new world record then!

Cobra!

Oww...

This looks like somewhere I went before...

That's it! I remember!

This is the castle where I met Lady!

Stop!

Let me go!

Wait! Where are you taking my little si-

Didn't you have a 50 gold coins debt?

Consider it repaid now.

Brother!

Let go of me! Where are you taking me?

There will be a ceremony to celebrate Lord Gilos' reign at the castle tonight.

Nobles from throughout the country will gather with unusual treasures and beautiful jewels.

I, of course, have been invited to the castle as well.

A wealthy merchant such as myself obviously won't show up empty-handed.

N... No way!

Don't tell me you're thinking of giving me to that monster as a gift!

Lord Gilos can hear everything.

Your cute little head would be cut off if he heard such blasphemous language.

Hurry! Or I'll be late to the ceremony!

No!

Good evening.

What was that sound?

Excuse me.

How much is the taxi fare to the castle?

Here we are. This is Gilos' castle.

Thanks a lot.

Paloma, drop me off here and go back to the city.

Just who are you?

Me? Just a tourist.

The name's Joe Gillian.

Today is the 29th march of 3012.

That's exactly 20 years ago.

That day, I sneaked into the castle aiming for the gathered treasures.

Oh right, that means that there is another me in this castle...

The past me.

Next! The king of Shaksen, Lord Rom!

As proof of loyalty to the Great King Gilos...

I present to you the "Harp of Life" that I found in the temple of Elba, at the bottom of the ocean.

The harp that was in the temple of Elba?

The harp that can extend your life just by hearing its sound?

This is a collector's item.

Lord Rom.

There is no doubt of your loyalty.

As long as there is this trust, the Shaksen kingdom will prosper for eternity!

Who would swear loyalty to that monster...

My lord!

That dirty bastard...

Unfortunately, it seems that Lord Rom has decided to put an end to our relationship of mutual trust.

He was a fool for going against Lord Gilos.

Layla.

What is that clown?

Nuba, the castle's scientist.

These strange creatures are all his creations.

But the most dangerous person in that castle is that man.

Who's he?

A bodyguard hired by Gilos, Manidou.

A dark sword master.

Alright, this is my chance.

I'll check this castle's security while he's here.

Let's meet again in your room, Layla.

Wait, Cobra!

What's wrong?

I'm scared...

Will you really take me out of this castle once this job is done?

I would never lie to a beauty.

As expected of myself, I'm pretty fast.

The past me is on the move, that'll be a little hard to work with.

Look!

That face...

The princess of the Sanborn duchy, Emeralda!

Princess!

My, my, Princess Emeralda!

Have you come to celebrate my reign, too?

Gilos, a person with such an appearance becoming king?!

Know your shame!

Your dark plan to assassinate the king to take over the throne...

I won't approve of it!

As expected of a father and daughter.

Your father, Duke Sanborn, said the same thing!

That's why I had him die!

Prepare to attack!

Forward!

Go!

Don't mind the soldiers, aim for Gilos!

Did we get him?

Don't kill that woman, Manidou!

Fools! Did you think you could actually kill me?

Nuba, I'll give this woman to you.

Take her to the laboratory, you may do whatever you want with her.

Thank you very much, Lord Gilos.

Who's there?

Were you sleeping?

Cobra, you're back!

You were late, so I was getting worried.

That hair...

Who are you?

Joe Gillian.

Cobra's big brother.

He never told me he had a brother.

As a friend of beauties, he doesn't tell them about me.

Because I would snatch them away.

I wouldn't have believed that story if you didn't just kiss me.

Your face is different, but your body and voice are the same...

And the way you kiss...

I take after our father and he takes after our mother.

This is a secret escape route.

How do you know of it?

I've been here before.

Before?

Oh, I meant my little brother came here before.

Oh right, there's a change in plans.

My little brother isn't coming back so I'm getting you out of here instead.

Let's meet up at the Air Car's departure spot in one hour.

Big brother, huh?

If I told her I was Cobra who came from 20 years into the future...

Of course she wouldn't believe me.

This is weird.

I can't see any guard.

This is the door to the treasure house.

What the hell?

So that's why there was no one here!

These are the guards!

There's no end to them!

They're like zombies!

Well then, Princess Emeralda.

How should I change that beautiful body?

How about changing you into a human bug with a shell?

Let's change these beautiful legs into grasshopper ones.

Or should I implant scales on your body?

Don't worry, I'll make it a masterpiece no matter what.

Could this be...

A black hole diamond?

You better stop.

If anyone other than the princess touches it, the sealed black hole will be released.

And swallow everything.

No way, that's just a legend.

Then give it a try.

Oh well, I have plenty of ways to entertain myself.

This is the beginning of the surgery!

That feeling!

You sure look like you're enjoying yourself!

No! Stop!

Why don't you change yourself into a handsome man first?

You are...

My name is Joe...

Joe Gillian.

He's over there!

Transform!

A circular orbit shuttle, huh?

I can use this.

I'm surprised.

Why didn't you die?

I've been a tough one since birth.

Interesting.

Let's test if you're still alive after I cut you up.

I refuse.

Don't let him get away!

They went after something!

That 'something' is the past me.

But where could have Layla gone to?

Joe!

Joe!

Paloma!

Why are you here, Paloma?

I was worried about you for some reason.

But I wouldn't have waited if I knew you were on a date.

She is Princess Emeralda.

Nice to meet you, Paloma.

Emeralda?

The princess of Sanborn?

Gilos should be going after us.

Do you know of any good place to hide?

Then come to my house.

It's a bar, so there won't be a problem with strangers.

But won't that trouble...

The opposite, if it's you, my brother will be happy.

You're back, Manidou.

Who could have wounded you that badly?

A man with a weapon in his left arm.

He got me.

He is Cobra.

Cobra?

That famous space pirate?

Lady...

I sneaked into Gilos' castle and saved Emeralda but...

It doesn't seem to be the end of this.

Lady's body is still disappearing.

What could be the cause?

But I will protect you no matter what happens, Lady.

Next in Cobra the Animation:

Time Drive Volume 2.

At your service!
