Tsumi to batsu: Uchuu no koukeisha

[first lines]

Computer:
Thrusters primed. Thirty seconds to atmospheric breach.

Isa Jo:
Should be smooth sailing from here on out.

Orion Tsang:
[the ship is suddenly attacked by the Nebulox] You thought we'd just let you leave? Hand over the girl.

Isa Jo:
Damn it! How did they find us? The controls are out! We're going down! [the ship crashes]

Kachi:
Isa... Isa... Isa... Isa...

Isa Jo:
[awakens] Ugh. Kachi, you OK? [Kachi nods] Oh man! What's our status? [checks the ship's computer] The ship's totaled. It won't be long until the reactor explodes. And the security locks are online. We've got company! OK. Here's the plan. We need to get out of here now. If we take out those intruders, the security doors will unlock.

Isa Jo:
I think that's the last of 'em. Let's get going.

Isa Jo:
I'm luck to be alive. Uh-oh. Where's Kachi? Kachi? Kachi! [find Kachi impaled on a pole but unharmed] Kachi, you okay?

Kachi:
Of course! [gets loose from the pole] Good as new.

Isa Jo:
Okay, then. Where are we? Some kind of underground city.

Orion Tsang:
[appears] Hope I'm not... Interrupting. Hand over the girl. Act swiftly, and I may just spare your life. [Isa points his gun at Orion and chuckles] Foolish boy, you truly intend to challenge us? Hand her over, or die. Your choice.

Isa Jo:
Fine. Take her.

Orion Tsang:
Good boy. You've made a wise choice. [ties a rope around Kachi and drags her over] Peel away that mask and reveal your true face, monster. [Kachi teleports]

Isa Jo:
[fires a charged shot at Orion] Take this! [jumps and flees]

Orion Tsang:
[blocks the shot] Yes, flee. Running is nothing but an exercise... In futility.

Isa Jo:
[to Kachi] This way! Let's take a breather in here!

Orion Tsang:
[catches up to Isa and Kachi] Leaving so soon? There's no escape from the Nebulox.

Orion Tsang:
[after Isa and Kachi defeat the Orion clone] That puppet body wasn't strong enough to stop them. I'll need to strengthen it during the repair process. [watching Isa and Kachi on a monitor] The fools are walking right into the lair of a massive Keeper. A blunder that will surely cost them their lives. [chuckles menacingly]

Isa Jo:
Check it out! The data system here is still up and running. I'm gonna search for the quickest route off this planet.

Kachi:
Isa, that monster back there. Why did it attack us?

Isa Jo:
Monster? Oh, that wasn't a monster, Kachi. It was a Keeper. Long ago, the civilization of this Earth became so advanced... That it brought about its own destruction. Keepers are artificial lifeforms created to protect what's left. Think about it this way: Keepers act as Earth's immune system. And in their eyes, we're uninvited parasites. All right! I think I found our ticket out of here. Let's go!

Kachi:
A tunnel in the ocean?

Isa Jo:
Yep. Turns out we were shot down over Fukuoka, Japan. There's a service tunnel here that should be free of enemies. Once we make it through, we'll infiltrate a floating air fortress. According to the database, a few ships are docked there. If we can get to one of those ships, we'll be home free.

Kachi:
And you're sure there are no enemies down here?

Isa Jo:
Positive. Why would enemies hang out in a water tunnel? Finally! There's the entrance!

Deko Gekisho:
This planet's final sunset is just over the horizon. Earth-4 will crumble before the might of the Nebulox. And Isa and the alien lifeform will perish along with it.

Isa Jo:
So I was wrong about the tunnel. How did they know we'd use it? And then this machine attacks us. Something's fishy. You know, I bet the Nebulox are behind this.

Kachi:
Yeah. Hey, Isa, do you know why they're hunting me? Is it because... I don't belong here?

Isa Jo:
Sort of. I think it's because you're not a real human.

Kachi:
Hmm. What is human?

Isa Jo:
Humanity is hard to define. But... We have a head with two ears and two eyes.

Kachi:
And a nose... And a mouth?

Isa Jo:
Yup.

Kachi:
And a body with two arms?

Isa Jo:
That's right.

Kachi:
And two legs, right?

Isa Jo:
Uh-huh.

Kachi:
Oh, and a tail!

Isa Jo:
Sure... We don't have tails! [the two laugh until they are interrupted by the arrival of Armon Ritter]

Armon Ritter:
Aww, how cute. Look at you. Giggling with the target you were sent here to kill. Tell me, my friend. Why haven't you completed your task?

Isa Jo:
Because I changed my mind.

Armon Ritter:
So you'd defy the will of the creators?

Isa Jo:
I don't give a damn about the creators or their will.

Armon Ritter:
[Isa and Kachi aim at the machine offscreen] Letting that creature live could destroy our entire universe. End her life. Turn your gun on that demon. [Isa fires a charged shot and Armon chuckles] You missed me.

[the machine explodes behind Armon and Isa and Kachi make their escape]

Armon Ritter:
[laughs] That was some stunt you pulled back there. But resistance will only delay the inevitable. I see you've made your choice. Unfortunately... I can't very well return to command empty handed. Come now. Allow me to show you the true meaning of pain. [battle starts]

Armon Ritter:
[after being defeated by Isa and Kachi in combat] Impressive. You're much more powerful than I thought. Isa, we've establish a base at the planet's energy hub. A mountain in Japan that towers above all else. Escape is impossible. Bring us her head when you realize that. [flies off]

Isa Jo:
A mountain in Japan... Mt. Fuji?

Kachi:
Isa?

Isa Jo:
Just a little farther to the air fortress. Let's go!

Hibaru Yaju:
Ugh, finally! I thought you'd never show up! You're Isa, right? Hi there. My name's Hibaru. I hear you're quite the fighter. They say you used to fight the boss to a draw in sparring. [examines Isa and Kachi] Let's see what we've got here. Your face isn't that bad. And your fashion sense is certainly... Interesting. But you lose points for your lousy taste in women. Hey, ditch the girl and I'll let you take me on a date. That is... [takes her sword out] If you're able to defeat me first!

Hibaru Yaju:
[if you fight Hibaru using Kachi] Say, after I kill your girlfriend here... [takes sword out] you wanna take me on a date?

Hibaru Yaju:
All right, all right, you win. Wow, you really are something else. [the place rumbles] Uh-oh, I think we've been a little too noisy. Our roughhousing woke up the little guy. Well, gotta scoot!

Isa Jo:
Wait! How is it that you're waiting for us at every turn? How are you tracking our movement? [Isa and Kachi are suddenly grabbed by a Keeper]

Hibaru Yaju:
[giggles] Silly boy. Don't you see? The creators are always watching.

Isa Jo:
Whoa, there, ugly! Chill out! He'll tear the whole place down!

Kachi:
Isa, look out! [teleports Isa out before the debris crushes Isa]

Ariana Shami:
My blood... is on fire!

Isa Jo:
It's infested with enemies, but it's the only road to get to Mt. Fuji. You couldn't have teleported us somewhere a little cooler?

Kachi:
[riding a creature] Don't be such a baby. This guy looks pretty comfortable.

Isa Jo:
Hey! Where's my alien donkey?

Isa Jo:
What is that thing? [alarm blares and Nebulox soldiers arrive]

Deko Gekisho:
It's been too long, Isa. I haven't seen you since basic training. When we were on the same side.

Isa Jo:
Deko. So you're after Kachi too.

Deko Gekisho:
We've got a few minutes to kill. Let's see if you're as tough as I remember.

Deko Gekisho:
[chuckles] In giving that monster refuge, your true power emerges. Excellent. I've been anxious to see what you're truly capable of. But you're not the only one who can transform. Now, accept your punishment!

Deko Gekisho:
[upon being defeated] How can this be? You've defied the will of the creators! Your allegiance to that monster will destroy this entire universe!

Isa Jo:
There's only one monster here... And that's you, Deko! [Deko explodes] Kachi... She's just Kachi.

[last lines]

[after completing the game with both Isa and Kachi]

Kachi:
Is it all over?

Isa Jo:
Yeah.

Kachi:
So what now? Head back to Earth and hide there?

Isa Jo:
No more hiding, Kachi. No more running. We forge ahead now.

Kachi:
That sounds... Nice.

Isa Jo:
They'll eventually come after us, but I don't care. Because we've got each other. Together we can take on anyone. [flies back down to Earth]

Kachi:
Isa, I'm beginning to remember details about my past.

Isa Jo:
Oh yeah? Like what?

Kachi:
Long ago, I wasn't called Kachi. I was known as... Achi. [as she says her name, the music abruptly stops]
