The world has been shrouded in darkness. [Lit: shut]
*kusha

For such a long time, always...
*Au~

nomnoms-
I'm tired...

I'm just so very tired.

I'll try asking that young boy for a store that sells smokes.

Um.

What are you doing here?

Watering the cloud flowers. [Ref: cloud flowers having to do w/ #6 Page 102]

[Upsides down] The frontier spirit is the very lifeline of mankind!!

[Upsides down] To delay would be to retreat...
[Upsides down] and to retreat would mean death.

We ain't no Donner party climbing the Sierra mountains. [Ref: Viz vol 2 page 13]
Should we sing? [Ref: "]
You go first then. [Ref: "]

This planet has past its end and continues its descent into madness.

My feet are heavy.
Kekeke

I have already walked for 3 days straight.

Or, has it only been for a mere 5 minutes?

No... I feel like I've been walking for a few thousand years.

No, some tens of thousands of years...

Some hundreds of millions of years...

Much longer than that...

nomnoms~

Indeed.

Page 015

The woman who had been unable to wait for my return has become enormous.
A-u.

nomnoms-
Her endless flow of tears and drool...

Page 016
Exposes my life to danger.
*Zu-n
*Do-n

Hyaa
*Zun

*BOOoo [e| alt:*Screech]

Swiftly! Let us ride!!

Page 017
It was a rabbit that I had seen before, but I couldn't remember who he was.
Even if they prattle on 'bout progress and the like, they ain't got their eyes on tha road and all that's behind 'em been left in ruins.
*GOooo
*Yum Yum

'Bout that surviving project that 6% of the military funds been spent on,

it's just bein' passed off as somethin' or other to, "further advance mankind."
He was in the middle of getting rid of some cargo, the rabbit says.

Page 018

To be, or not to be!!
From Hamlet, y'know!

I could see a light.
The only things that were left were bad endings and ending up worm food. [Ref to Vol 4 and the game of Go b/w 1 & 2]

Page 019
But then, from the overhaul of that remote operation of the cosmic yin & yang solenoid,

within its gigantic circumference, the distortion of the relative location of the star Proxima Centauri was...
*GuruGuruGuru

the dismal fate of a horse being led by a carrot on a stick and the boundaries between dreams and reality.

And what did I see in the pictures of the Copernicus crater taken by the second lunar orbiter?

The truth that what was livin' in the Carboniferous period of the Paleozoic era 3 hundred million years ago was cockroaches.

I cannot bear it!!
*Kya-

*Pushi-
Well then, godspeed...

That turkey that ye chose...
I've taken a shining to 'er.

The tour bus departs with those words.

Page 022

I am tired.

So very tired.

I choose a door aimlessly and open it.

Page 023

Hey there, Number Five...
How's the situation look outside?

Page 024

Everything's going to hell...
It's been shrouded in darkness.

I have done something that cannot be undone.

Page 025
The setting sun looks as though it's burning as it engulfs the hill the children are playing on.

Their mother calls them for dinner and they come bounding down.
The sister holds her younger brother's... The brother holds his younger sister's hand, and they come running.

Even if you've never experienced it, you can still imagine it, can't you, Five?

Page 026

On the table: the red bean soup and bread baked by their mother.

The children talk about what they have accomplished during the day.
The flock of Omurosagi flying south they saw...
They talk about the bottomless swamp they found deep within the forest.

For that everyday tranquility...

To reclaim these moments that have vanished from everyone's memories...

I will risk this very life.

One... [Kanji: King]

Welcome back, Sniper.

Everyone has been waiting for you.

We follow Yuri.
*A-

Page 033

U~

We've experienced this repulsive, twisted, warped feeling before.
Yes.
It's like black smeared upon black.

He is coming.
He is.

PAPA has called for him.

Page 034

Victor...

Haha...

Page 035

Hmph.

Dammit, it hurts so much my head is about to split.

Four, those bastards.
Screwing around with me in this bizarre city.

Nomnoms-.

Page 036
What the hell do you mean, "Nomnoms?"
You just ate a moment ago.
Nomnoms-

Damn...
What the hell is your body made of...?

You'll die.

Page 037

But, we haven't eaten anything since this morning. My stomach is crying out like a kajika frog.

MauMau

Hm.

Pu-

I found a boy in a gloomy mood staring at a flower pot.

Page 038

I'll try asking him if there's any place to eat around here.

Um.
