No matter where we go, there's nothing but rocks.
It's amazing.
Amazing? That's all we've seen for 10 hours!
More like 9 hours and 40 minutes, I think.
There should be a city to the north, we're going there.
I hope we can get there before morning.
DT Eightron
Slow down
Nichijou ni afureru
With these rhymes following the rhythm
Kurikaesu rhythm ni nose tadayou rhyme
That we find everywhere these days
Samazama na koto ga afureteru
With all these things happening
Ima dakara koso tsutaetai kono poem
I want to transmit this poem now
Sugiteyuku hibi no naka de wasureteita
I forgot that in these passing days
Microphone check 1, 2, yo
Tachimukaou to suru shisei
The will to resist
Taisei tatenaoshi kidou shuusei
While pulling ourselves, correcting our way
One two step
Basket shoes haketara heya kara nukedashi
Putting our basket shoes, escaping a room
One two skip
Karoyaka ni arukidashite
Walking a light step
Kono mune tsukisasu beat sagashite
Searching for the beat that gets to my heart
Tada suikomu kuuki sae mo
In this era where even the air
Mushibomaresou na jidai de
That I breathe could suffocate me
Soredemo nanika wo sagashite
Even then, searching for something
Yume wo mitsuzukeru hito mo itari shite
There could still be people dreaming
Friends now
Clap your hands
Friends now
Put your hands in air
Saa, mado wo ake
Now, open the window
Boku wa tada te wo furu yo
I am just waving my hand
Hi wa mata nobori kurikaeshiteiku
The sun rises again
Bokura no sora wo nomikondeiku
Swallowing our sky
Iki isogu toshitemo kamawanai
Even if I live too fast
Toberu noni tobanai yori wa ii
I'd rather do that than not fly when I could
I didn't think we would have to use that.
The Xeno Grafter kits have arrived.
The two hangars have been checked.
VTOL System: Nothing to report.
Ready anytime.
Good, we will now pursue these Returners who are DT carriers and capture them.
The target is area 26D.
Traces were detected in the minefield zone.
We will go there at once.
Those from dome 13 that Datania deemed as useless...
were all driven out and died.
I will soon too...
But you are different.
Only one man out of 1000, no, one out of 10000 can survive outside.
I know that this is no coincidence.
Rosso, find comrades.
There has to be other people like you.
People that can freely run through the wasteland.
They have a goal.
I know it.
They!
They can live outside the dome with no data meal and antibodies tablets?
That's right.
The DT allows them to.
To obtain a perfect DT, their bodies are necessary.
Nines!
What is it?
A mobile object moving north has been detected.
But the signal is very weak, we could easily lose it.
It means they can move under the sun.
Diana, contact HQ.
Yes.
Contact established.
This is Nines from the pursuing party.
A vehicle moving north has been detected.
It has to be Returners.
Beginning pursuit, over.
I'm hungry...
Isn't it about time to stop?
Are you alright?
Yeah, but this valley is endless.
What's wrong?
We've arrived.
What's going on? Were you sleep-driving?
More or less...
That's why I said we should have stopped.
You've been driving for 24 hours straight!
More like 25 hours and 10 minutes.
Hey!
Look!
Yeah, we've arrived.
That's what I said.
Where is this?
An old city on the border of Datania's territory.
Huh?
What's wrong?
What is it?
It's a battery.
A battery?
What's that?
Datania was fighting a war.
A defense line of laser battery was built all around Datania.
Anyone approaching it would go up in smoke.
Their range is of about 200km.
You sure know a lot.
I'm just referring to data.
But that was more than 70 years ago.
Yes, it's unthinkable that they would still be active.
And they were made to defend Datania.
They aren't supposed to attack someone going out of Datania.
It's out of gas.
I'll go get some.
Fia, where are you right now?
We were able to trace you upto the minefield.
Answer!
You're probably out of tablets.
Fia.
Let's go take a look anyway, we don't have a choice.
Will it be alright?
Yeah, I won't do anything reckless.
What she is trying to say is...
Won't it go 'boom' on us when we get close?
Probably not.
Probably?
Is your lack of sleep getting to you?
Fia!
What's wrong?
It's nothing.
Don't worry!
We're well into their range now.
If you say so...
What's this?
It's targetting us!
Get out of here!
Our armored vehicle went up in smoke.
What power!
Hey, Ein!
It's still working!
Well...
What do we do now?
Look!
It's still left.
Do we take a detour?
Do we go back to Datania?
The old program of that battery must still be active, so it's executing.
It targets all foreign elements to the defense line.
Couldn't you have realized that earlier?
No...
So if you access the central computer of the program...
The war has been over for a while, so it should be alright.
Wait... What the...
I can't access it!
I'm getting rejected everywhere!
Then does this mean we can't go any further?
Umm... How about asking Cluster?
We can't?
What's wrong?
Something is coming!
Looks like an old type armored vehicle.
Got it, Shuu?
No survivors.
Don't move!
What do we do?
This way.
I'm counting on you, Cluster!
They're all old men.
Chief! We've brought them back.
They're all children.
Who are you? Where did you come from?
You shoot first and you ask questions after?
We've come from Datania!
What?
Did you say Datania?
Impossible!
Did you really come from Datania?
What will you do if we are lying?
I can't believe it.
Datania is still holding on?
What is the status of the war?
War? Could it be...
Are you talking about the war between the dome-cities?
If that's the case, it's been over for more than half a century already.
I can't believe this!
I'm the one that can't believe this.
Just what is going on here?
I see...
So it's true.
Dad, the war is really over!
Impossible!
Datania was destroyed and only this battery survived!
We've kept on defending it for 70 years and prepared for the enemy's attack!
70 years?
Chief, the war is over and Datania is well.
Then why can't we contact Datania?
Because the war destroyed the environment...
...and the Dellinger effect prevents waves from going further than 10km.
And ever since Zero became the leader, Datania has been cut from the outside world.
Probably no one remembers about this battery.
Unbelievable...
It's been 70 years...
Impossible.
Dad! Look at reality!
The war is over!
Let me hear the details.
Guide them to the war room.
Yes.
This way.
Was it really the sound of an explosion?
Yes, it occured an hour ago but was detected by the sensor.
The analysis result is identical.
It came from the ruins of a laser battery from the war.
A laser battery?
It's still operational?
They're keeping us waiting!
Who is the person called 'Fia'?
Umm...
It's me... but...
This way, please.
It's here.
Fia.
Good work.
This communication method is more than 50 years old so we can't control it well.
We're coming your way. Restrain the fugitives.
Fugitives...
Chief.
Can we count on your cooperation?
Yes!
We know you're fugitives from Datania.
Give yourselves up!
What's going on?
Fia!
Dad! Wait, something isn't right!
That commander Nines too.
Nines!
Max! We are soldiers of Datania.
Fia!
Let's run from the windows!
What are you doing? Hurry up and go!
Hurry up!
Dad, there's really something strange.
Think about it a little more.
If these children really are fugitives, then what happened to Datania?
Silence!
A soldier has to obey orders to the very end!
Dad...
Run away!
Dolly! Hurry up!
I'm counting on you, Cluster!
Eightron
Eightron Shoot!
Eightron!
Can you destroy that battery?
The turret...
Battery in sight.
Anomaly: Vibration of atmospheric molecules.
Eightron.
Concentrate the beams. The rest is ineffective.
The battery will be hit.
It doesn't matter, it's nothing more than a relic of the past.
Hydrogen fusion above us!
Fire!
Cannon lines cut: circuit problem.
Nines! It's dangerous!
I have an idea about your structure.
Go back to molecules, Eightron!
The system is going out of control. Landing in manual mode.
Where are the fugitives?
They're back on the road.
I told you to restrain them!
My apologies, we're no longer used to battle.
Miss Fia asked me to hand this over to you.
What's wrong, Ein?
The battery is dead!
What's up with that?
What do we do?
Something is coming.
Shuu, get back!
Look!
Shuu!
Dolly!
I may lack some energy!
What are you all doing here?
You are...
Rosso!
If you just lie there, you'll dry up completely!
Get on!
Ugokenaku naru...
Nando dakishimeatte mo

Shuu, Fia!
I finally found you!
The virtual attraction: Wanderer's world.
It was built 76 years ago.
You're the only one left.
Why is there so much data remaining?
Well then everyone, please die!
Fire.
Dolly!
