This is my translation of the text in Mother 3. This translation should
appear only on Gamefaqs.

Unfortunately I haven't played the other Mother games so please let me
know if you see any inconsistencies with the other games. I blatantly
stole the word "tutoriole" from some message board because I thought it
was genius. If the original inventor of the word wants credit, please
send me an email.

I hope this translation helps you enjoy this game more than you would have
otherwise. Thanks.

                   Welcome to MOTHER3 World


NOWHERE ISLAND - TAZMILY VILLAGE - BEYOND THE TELLY FOREST - HINAWA'S
FATHER, ALEC'S HOUSE


A KNOCK AT THE DOOR. LUCAS IS SLEEPING IN HIS BED.


  Claus: Lucaaaaaaaaassssss!!!! How long are you going to sleep? Come on, get
         up and play! Hurry up! Drago brought his kid with him. He's so
         cute. Hurry up!!!


LUCAS WAKES UP AND GETS OUT OF BED. CHECK THE WOOD STOVE.

  “It’s a pretty standard wood burning stove.”

LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND...

   “Bedhead. Same as always.”


GO DOWNSTAIRS AND TALK TO HINAWA.

  Hinawa:  Good morning, sleepyhead. Claus has been up for a while. He's off
           playing with Drago.


TRY TO LEAVE OUT THE DOOR AND...

  Hinawa:  You're not going out to play in your pajamas, are you? Go
           upstairs and change. (OK/NO)

GO BACK DOWNSTAIRS AND TALK TO HER AGAIN.

  Hinawa: Now you look like a million bucks. Have fun.


GO OUTSIDE AND TALK TO ALEC.

  Alec: Hey, our late riser is finally up. You're going home today, aren't
        ya? It's gonna be lonely around here.


TALK TO THE PIG ON THE LEFT AND THEN ON THE RIGHT.

  Pig (left):  OINK. (I've been wondering what the pig next to me is going
               to say.)

  Pig (right):  OINK. (Forget about me.)


TALK TO THE COW.

  Cow:  MOO. (No matter what we're thinking, all we cows can say is MOO.
        Remember that and it'll come in handy.)

TALK TO THE ROOSTERS.

  Rooster #1:  COCKADOODLEDOO. (Oh, you're up.)

  Rooster #2:  COCKADOODLEDOO. (Late-sleeperer-person!)



HEAD TO THE SOUTH AND YOU ARE STOPPED.

  “There is an ant at your feet. It looks like you might step on it, so
   please turn back.”


TALK TO THE FROG.

  Frog:  A tale is formed from a range of memories. Memories recall
         other memories and yet others are formed anew. If you don't set down
         your memories, you'll forget them. So, please tell me all your
         memories up till now. This is what people call “Saving”. So,
         RIBBIT,do you want to save?  (YES/NO)

AFTER SAVING...

         Be careful. And say hi to the next frog for me.


HEAD RIGHT INTO THE NEXT AREA. KRAUS IS RUNNING AT DRAGO AND KNOCKING HIM
OVER. TALK TO KRAUS...

  Claus:  Man, I’m beat. I've been play fighting with Drago and his
         friends all morning. Lucas, you should play too. Try to hurl
         yourself at Drago.


ALEC ENTERS.

  Alec:  Claus!! Lucas doesn't know about hurling yet. Lucas, form in your
         mind an image of something like a B Button. Now, hold it for a
         little while and then release. That is how you DASH. Claus! Show him
         how it’s done.


KRAUS STEPS BACK AND DASHES AT DRAGO. DRAGO FALLS OVER AND THEN GETS BACK UP.


  Alec: Now it’s your turn, Lucas. Give it a shot. But you'll never be able
        to do it with such a scared look on your face. Let yourself go limp.
        Release the tension in your shoulders. Relaaaaax, relaaaaax!


RUN AT DRAGO AND KNOCK HIM DOWN. TALK TO KRAUS.

  Claus: The harder you bump into Drago, the happier he gets.


A CREATURE NAMED OKERA ENTERS.

  Okera:  Move it, move it, move it, mooooooooove it. Okera coming through!
          I heard you all fighting. You got to let me in, you gotta. I'll
          knock you all to the ground. GTry and stop me and I'll make you
          eat it, punk!


AFTER THE BATTLE

  Okera:  Wow, you had more bones than I thought. You can be my sparring
partner any time. However, the next time be in the big stadium,
Cricket Hole. I look forward to it...brother.


OKERA LEAVES AND HINAWA ENTERS.

  Hinawa:  I stepped on a cricket. I wonder if he'll be ok... Everyone, time
           to eat. Today is Lucas and Claus's favorite, SPAM.

  Claus: Yes! SPAM!

THE BOYS RUN OFF TOWARDS HOME.

  Hinawa: You, too, father.


HINAWA LEAVES AND ALEC ADDRESSES THE CAMERA.

  Alec: Well, everyone...about saving...you talk to a frog to do it. That's
        how you save. It doesn't take hardly any time at all so, make sure
        to talk to them often. It feels good to save. And saving is
        completely...free of charge. Now I guess I'll return to the story
        already in progress...

        ...Hey, wait up. Leave some SPAM for me....!!!

BACK AT ALEC’S HOUSE, THE TWO BOYS AND THEIR MOTHER ARE SITTING AT THE
KITCHEN TABLE.

  Claus: Hey, mom, what's your favorite food? Huh? It's SPAM? Hey, that's
         the same as us! Jinkies!

  Hinawa: After we eat we're going back home. We have to go through the
          woods,so I'd like to leave a little early.

  Alec: Maybe sometimes the kids can come visit by themselves. You too,
        Lucas. Ha.....


HINAWA GOES OUTSIDE TO THE FRONT PORCH AND WRITES A LETTER TO FLINT.

        Flint,

          The kids have been running wild around the fields and mountains
        since we've been here. Just like you said they would. They never get
        tired.

          Claus is still as risky and energetic as always. Lucas is still a
        little withdrawn. But, it seems like both of them are having a great
        time playing. I think my father’s going to be lonely when we leave.
        He hadn't seen the boys for a long time. But, we'll be coming home
        this evening.

          I hadn't breathed in this clean mountain air for a while. I forgot
        how good it makes you feel. You’re always in Tazmily  Village
        enveloped in the smell of goats, so I want you to smell this clean
        air as well.

          Next time we come we'll have someone baby sit the goats and we'll
        come here as a family. Claus, Lucas and I have you always in our
        minds. Tonight when we get home I'll whip up a batch of my special
        SPAM.

        Yours and the boys forever,
                                   Hinawa


A PIGEON TAKES THE LETTER FROM HER AND A UFO FLIES OVERHEAD.


THE MOTHER 3 TITLE SCREEN APPEARS.

EXPLOSIONS ROCK THE FOREST AND THE WILDLIFE RUN FOR THEIR LIFE. PIG MASKS ARE
SEEN PLANTING BOMBS.


=============================================================================

CHAPTER 1 -  NIGHT OF THE FUNERAL

=============================================================================

THOMAS RUNS TO FLINT’S DOOR AND KNOCKS ON IT.

  Thomas:  Flint, Flint, Flintttttttttt!!!!!!!! It's a fire. A fire! A fire
           and more fire. The Telly Forest is burning like a bonfire.


YOU NOW CONTROL FLINT SO GO TO THE FRONT DOOR.

  Thomas:  Flint!!!!!! It's gonna get worse if you don't hurry yourself up!
           The forest, the forest, the forest is on fire. Eh? Why would you
           lock your door in such a peaceful village as this? Flint!!!!


THOMAS KNOCKS ON THE DOOR AGAIN AND THEN GRABS THE DOORKNOB. IT COMES OFF IN
HIS HAND.

  Thomas:  Ah! The doorknob... what a horrible time for this to happen.

FLINT COMES OUT OF THE HOUSE AND STARTLES THOMAS. THOMAS THROWS THE DOORKNOB
AND IT HITS THE DOGHOUSE, WAKING BONEY.

  Thomas: Doorknob! No, I mean, Flint! This is no time to be taking a nap.
          The Telly Forest is in flames. In a terrible time like this we
          need our resident reckless nice-guy. Flint, come on. Please.
          (YES/NO)


THOMAS HAS JOINED YOU.

  Thomas: I'll walk behind you. Ok? I love walking behind people!!


CHECK THE DOGHOUSE.

    “There is something hidden in the doghouse.”

FLINT GOT THE BROKEN STICK (ぼうっきれ)

  Thomas: Flint, the broken stick can be used as a weapon if something
          happens. You should make sure to equip it. You can't just hold on
          to it, just like caramels.

EQUIP THE BROKEN STICK.

TALK TO THE SHEEP.

    “The sheep are moving around, restless.”

   *           be turned to ash. Go north, young man. North!!! East-      *
   *           West-South-North's north. Why did you make we have to      *

   * Tutoriole: Tweet! It might seem a little strange, but I'm going      *
   *            to speak some words that sound like they may have         *
   *            come from a game. The MENU can be brought up by the       *
   *            START BUTTON. The MENU reads from left to right:          *
   *            Goods/Equip/Status/Sleep. You can select from these       *
   *            4 with the control pad. Press the A BUTTON to find        *
   *            out various things you want to know. Now I'll tell you    *
   *            about "Sleep" on the far right. Select this with the A    *
   *            BUTTON to interrupt your game. This doesn't use much      *
   *            battery power at all, so don’t worry. When you want to   *
   *            start it back up again, press the SELECT,L and R BUTTONS  *
   *            at the same time. So, do you want to hear my explanation  *
   *            again? (YES/NO) Using this kind of game language is       *
   *            pretty rare, right? But it’s all so tweet. I mean, sweet.*
   *            And now, like the bird I am....TWEEET!                    *
   *                                                                      *

*             pray here. I think it's the right thing to do.             *

*             will forget that I ever asked you that question. 1...      *

HEAD NORTH INTO THE NEXT AREA. A PIG MASK RELEASES SOME FIRE BUGS LOOSE
IN THE FOREST. INSPECT THE BOX THE BUGS CAME OUT OF.

      “There's a metal box-like thing on the ground.”

NAVIGATE THE FIRE AND TALK TO LIGHTER WHO IS ON THE GROUND.

  Thomas: Lighter!! Hey, Lighter, are you OK?

  Lighter: Flint...oh, and Thomas. D....amn...cough. Those things...the
           more I defeated the more came. Keep going ahead.

THEY ALL LOOK AT THE BUG ON THE LEFT.

  Thomas: What is that? A bug?

  Lighter: I don’t know. *Cough* Those are the things setting fire to the
           forest. Fuel is probably still in the cabin in the woods.

  Thomas: Fuel is still in the cabin?!!  Flint!! Go and rescue Fuel.
          I'll see to Lighter's injuries.

HEAD UP AND YOU ARE ATTACKED BY THREE FIRE BUGS. AFTER THE BATTLE,
CONTINUE NORTH.


GO UP AND YOU’LL SEE THE CABIN.

  Fuel:  Help me!!

TRY TO OPEN THE DOOR AND IT SAYS,

  “It looks like it will open if you hurl yourself at it.”

  Fuel: Help!! Help me!!!


DASH AND BREAK OPEN THE DOOR. FIGHT THE FLYING MOUSE AND HEAD UPSTAIRS.

  Fuel: Flint...


YOU SAVED FUEL. THE CABIN COLLAPSES.


  Fuel:  I'm black with soot but I'm alive. You're all black as well. Thank
         you, All-Black Flint. Thank you very much, All-Black Flint. We
         have to tell my father that I'm safe. I'm sure he's worrying
         about me.

  Lighter: Well, that’s neither here nor there. OWWWW!! That hurts, you
           idiot!

  Archat: Master, what are you doing?

  Lighter: I'm healing my leg. What's it look like?

  Thomas: Look, Flint came. He saved your son.

  Ed:  You two were always such close battling buddies as kids. It made
       me jealous.

  Lighter:  Thanks, Flint. I hate for you to see me like this. I guess
            I owe you one.

  Archat: Master, I think that's the first time I ever heard you say
          thanks.

  Bronson: How true. Next you'll tell me it’s going to rain.


RAIN STARTS TO FALL.

  Bronson: Huh, it did start to rain.

  Thomas:  I hope this rain puts out all the fires. We have to see to
           Lighter's treatment. Let go back to the village.


IN THE INN...

LEAVE THE INN. ISACK STOPS YOU.

  Isack: Flint, I heard that you were resting here. Good. This rain is
         horrible. Let me stand under the awning here. Flint...have you
         seen Hinawa or the kids? (yes/NO) I see. I was in the mountains
         collecting mushrooms. I happened to see Hinawa. Then I took a rest
         in a dry riverbed and from far away I heard a huge roar. It
         sounded to me like Drago's voice. Then I heard a shriek. At least
         I thought I did. Flint, are you sure Hinawa hasn’t made it back
         yet?


HEAD BACK TO FLINT'S HOUSE AND THE PIGEON IS WAITING FOR FLINT. FLINT
READS THE LETTER THAT HINAWA WROTE.

IN FLINT'S HOUSE...

  Isack:  Oh, I see...they're not home yet. It's raining...I hope they don't
          catch a cold.

  Fuel: I'll go looking for them.

  Isack:  They're probably hunkered down somewhere, staying out of the rain.
          It's night so we should probably go looking for 'em. I'll get
          all the villagers to lend a hand as well.

  Fuel:  I guess I'll go tell my dad what’s going down.


GO OUTSIDE AND BONEY IS BARKING AT YOU.

  Boney: ROOF! (Please take me with you. I can help you out.)

  “Will you take Boney with you?”  (YES/NO)

  Johner: Flint, you made it. Everyone split into groups and went into the
          forest. I gave them all the orders to search for Hinawa. You’re
          blessed to have so many friends who love you. It should make you
          real happy, in a way.

  Wes:  I want to help out with the search too...but they called me an
        old man and told me to keep watch here. I guess nobody has any

TALK TO BRONSON...

  Bronson: It's a horrible sight, Flint. Have a look for yourself. All
           these sturdy, giant trees were smashed right in half. What
          make such big trees fall like that? There’s no way a human
           could do that. Hey, it wasn't me! Dammit. The road is
           completely blocked. Maybe it's because of these trees that
           Hinawa and the boys haven't come home. It’s the long way but
           you’re going to have to find another way around.

  Batou:  Maybe we should split into smaller groups.

  Isack:  Hey, Flint!

  Lighter:  Have you found them yet?

  Bronson:  Lighter...are you all right?

  Lighter:  I'm always fine. Don't treat me like some damned invalid. Leave
            this tree business to me. Flint, keep moving.

WALK SOUTH AND BONEY STARTS TO BARK AND CLAW AT THE CLIFF.

  Johner: Boney, what's the matter, boy? Flint, Boney seems to have found
          something.

  Batou: Hey, look up there. There's a piece of fabric. Over there. Do you
         see it? That red thing.

  Wess: What seems to be the matter? Is there something up there?

  Johner: Oh, Wes, you came too. '’m sorry but nobody here ordered an old
          man. There’s nothing you can do for us.


TALK TO WES

  Wes:  Oh...Flint. You probably want to climb up that cliff, don't you,
        sonny? I understand what you’re going through but that's a little
        risky. My son might be of some use to you here. Or maybe not. At
        any rate, I'll call him here and we'll see. Let me borrow your
        dog. Boney, I want you to bring my son here. My son’s name is
        (naming screen, default is Duster) Duster. Got it? Ok, now smell
        this sock.........woah, this thing reeks! Remember this smell.

 Boney: Oooh! (This thing really stinks.)

  Wes: I tied a yellow ribbon around your neck. Show him this ribbon and
       he'll understand everything. Please.

 Boney: Woof Woof! (Leave it to me!)


BONEY DRAGS DUSTER FROM HIS BED AND BRINGS HIM TO THE GROUP.


  Wes:  Duster, you know how you've been training in the art of thievery
        since you were a kid? Well, the time has finally come for you to try
        them out. Today you must carry out the magnificent Wall Staple
        technique.

 Duster:  Sure, I've practiced it a lot but this is my first time to ever
          do it for real. I hope it goes all right...

DUSTER WALK TO THE FACE PF THE CLIFF.

 Duster:  It looks like I can climb up here.

AT THE TOP HE SAYS...

 Duster: Ok, everything looks good. Flint, be careful climbing up.

*****************************************************************************


TALK TO DUSTER AT THE TOP.

  Duster: It looks like the rain has stopped. My legs definitely not the
          strongest, but I'll try and follow you. Let's go together.

EXAMINE THE PIECE OF FABRIC.

  “It's the color of Hinawa's clothes.”
  “You got the Piece of Fabric.”

GO NORTH.

  Duster: Flint, there’s someone up there. What are those? Are they human?
          What are they doing?

GO UP AND TALK TO ONE OF THE PIG-MASKS. THIS STARTS THE BATTLE WITH
ROBO-DEER.  AFTER THE BATTLE...

CHECK THE DROPPED ITEM.

  “There's a notebook with the mark of a pig's nose on the cover. Will you
   read it?”

  (YES/NO)

  “Flint takes the notebook and reads it. The chicken-scratch writing says...

         All the life forms in this area are no good. We have to make
         them cooler. The theme is: Stronger! Eviler! More violent! Once
         we put that and that together we'll have a that like we've
         never seen before. As for the name, it’s the Fantastic
         Chimera Project. We'll remodel it step by step.”


GO NORTH AND WATCH THE UFO FLY AWAY.

  Bronson:  Flint....what to say...well, first of all, calm down and listen
            closely. I have good news and bad news. Which should I say first?
            Um, I guess the good news first. I got my hands on the super-huge
            Drago Fang. It will be the greatest weapon. I thought you could
            use it. The bad news is.....the bad news is....the place where I
            found Drago's Fang. It was in...your...It was thrust through
            your wife's heart.


FLINT FALLS TO HIS KNEES.

  Bronson:  Flint, please, be strong. I'm sure that Hinawa is the reason the
            boys are safe. She must have sacrificed her life for theirs.

  Tessie:  Flint.....

  Ollie:  Flint...

  Abbot:  Flint, I'm not sure what to say. I'm sorry...

FLINT BASHES HIM WITH A PIECE OF FIREWOOD. OLLIE TRIES TO GRAB IT FROM HIM
BUT HE SMACKS OLLIE WITH IT AS WELL.

  Abbot:  Flint, not in front of your kids. What do you think you're doing?

LIGHTER APPEARS AND KNOCKS FLINT UNCONSCIOUS WITH A 2X4.


FLINT DREAMS OF HIS WIFE AND KIDS AND THEN WAKES UP IN PRISON.

  Bronson:  You're the first person we've ever had in the Tazmily  Jail.
            Congratulations. Flint, Abbot and Ollie are fine. I'm truly
            sorry about what happened to Hinawa. What on earth caused Drago
            to attack a human? I'm going to have you rest here for a little
            while longer. It pains me to do it, though. I'm going to hold
            on to Drago's Fang for now. You know, the one that was in your
            wife's heart. When you get out of here come by my house and I'll
            give it to you. Don't forget.


WALK AROUND YOUR CELL FOR A WHILE AND KRAUS WILL ENTER.

  Claus:  Dad, it's me. Claus. Lucas was going to come, too, but since that
          time he's spent everyday crying in front of Mom's grave. Dad, I'm
          going to leave this apple here. The core is really tough and may be
          hard to eat. The core. The core is really tough and may be hard to
          eat but make sure you do. I’m going to get stronger. I'll be so
          strong that I'll easily defeat Drago. Dad...I...


KRAUS LEAVES. CHECK THE APPLE.

   “Will you eat the apple? (YES/NO)”
   “There was a file in the apple.”

CHECK THE JAIL CELL DOOR

   “The lock is rusted. Will you use the file? (YES/NO)

THE DOOR OPENS

   “The file is now useless.”


LEAVE THE JAIL AND DUSTER TALKS TO YOU.

  Duster:  Flint. I'm not sure really what to say. But, I'm really sorry
           about Hinawa. I can't say I know what you're going though.
           Hinawa's burial is finished. Lucas has been constantly crying
           in front of her grave. I think his little heart is going to break
           apart. If I can ever do anything for you again, don't be afraid to
           ask.


HEAD TOWARDS THE CEMETERY.

*                                                                          *

TALK TO ALEC.

  Alec: Oh, long time no see. I heard about Hinawa and came here right away.
        I haven't been in this village in a long time. I had a really great
        time seeing my grandsons and then this.........sorry. Hey, isn't
        Claus with you? He said he was going to meet someone and he hasn't
        come back yet. Lucas, do you know where Claus went?

  Lucas:  .....I don't know.

Alec: Lucas, hiding things will help no one. He probably went to face that
beast Drago.

  Lucas: No, no, no. Claus is NOT thinking that he's going to defeat Drago
         and he did NOT take Dad's knife and head towards the mountain...
         oops.

  Alec: You raised an honest one here, Flint. So Claus is going to take that
        homemade knife and face Drago. Why didn't you try to stop him?

  Lucas: I told him I wanted to go too but he told me he was going alone and
         not to follow.

  Alec:  And you just let him go? You stupid idiot!!


LUCAS RUNS AWAY.

  Alec:  Maybe I said too much. Flint, Claus has gone into the mountains
         to avenge his mother. We haven't a moment to lose. I don't think
         that Drago is himself anymore. We need to prepare. I'm going to
         get weapons ready for our fight with Drago. Hurry to my house.
         You remember where I live, right? If you forgot you can ask Mapson
         to mark your map for you.


HEAD TO BRONSON'S HOUSE.

  Bronson:  Flint, don't say anything and just take this. It's Drago's Fang.
            I made it in to a weapon for you. It's the only thing that'll
            be strong enough to break through Drago's tough hide. No other
            weapons will be able to defeat Drago. I know it's hard for you
            but you'll have to carry this.

  "You got Drago's Fang."


HEAD TO ALEC'S HOUSE.

  Chicken:  Cockadoodledoo? (Don't chase me. It's not nice to chase
            chickens.)

  Chicken 2: Cockadoodledoo? (Why are you chasing us?)

  Mouse: SQUEAK! (Eating everything on your plate is really a great
         thing to do. But, it's a little hard for me.)

  Cow: MOO! (Anywhere, anytime...Moo!)

  Pig 1:  OINK! (I want to see a pig looking at the sea.)

  Pig 2:  OINK! (I want to look at the sea.)

  Alec: Oh, you made it. It's gotten pretty dangerous to cross through
        the forest. You know that really hard to explain flying mouse
        with the insect wings growing out of its back? Well, it seems
        to have bitten me. I'm pretty much all better now. Well, let's
        forget about that. I've found out where Claus went. According
        to the frog's information he went to visit an old friend of mine.
        Let's go!!!!!

LEAVE ALEC'S HOUSE.

  Alec: I mention the frog's information before. You're probably wondering
        what that's all about. Frogs are my friend's assistants. My friend
        can communicate freely with frogs and lizards among other things.
        Look, over there is a lizard. Talk to it and it should tell us which
        way we need to go.

GO NEAR THE LIZARD.

  Alec:  Flint, what kind of person is your friend, is a kind of question
         you may be batting around in your head. My friend, and his friends,
         live far from human civilization. They've lived there a long time.
         They call themselves the Magypsy.

TALK TO THE LIZARD.

Signpost Lizard: Hi, I'm a lizard. I'll tell you which way you need to go.
Yay, time to spin.

FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS OF THE LIZARDS.

  Alec:  Flint, you're probably intrigued by the name Magypsy. I can tell
         by how slow your walking has become. The Magypsy have been in
         this land for a long time protecting something. They all have
         strange powers. They're not humans and they're not demons. They're
         also not men or women. I also have no idea how old they are. So,
         even though I've explained it to you, you still know nothing. Well,
         in summary, they're strange. All of them, strange. That's what kind
         of things they are. However, they are really good natured.

FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS OF THE LIZRDS TO THE RIVER. THERE ARE TWO FROGS.

  Left Frog:  You lose. Sorry.

  Right Frog: You win! You win!! Calling all frogs!


FROGS GATHER ALLOWING YOU TO CROSS THE RIVER.

  Tutoriole:  Tweet! The enemies you face will often leave items behind.
              You should pick them up. But, if you have too many items you
              have to either give up or throw something away. Th-ere-fore,
              eat the foods when you have the need for them. Eat as much as
              you can. That way you'll never run out of spaces for your
              items. That's one of the tricks of the game. And now, in
              parting...TWEET!!


HEAD TOWARDS THE MAGYPSYS' SHELL HOUSE.

  Tutoriole:  Tweet! Today is the Magypsys' monthly tea party. Over there,
              can't you hear the indescribably beautiful voices coming from
              Aolia's house? Tweet!

  Cow:  Moo. (How about squeezing yourself some milk?) (YES/NO) Moo. (You're
        good at that.)

ENTER AOLIA'S HOUSE.

*****************************************************************************


  Ionia: Wah!!! Alec!! Welcome.

  Aolia: Ionia, is this a friend of yours? How do you do? Ionia, aren't you
         forgetting your introductions?

  Ionia:  Why, of course. This here is my good friend Alec. And you are...I
          see, Flint. Let me introduce you to the Magypsys. Today is a
          party so almost everyone is here. This is Aolia and that is Doria.
          Over there is Fligia, Lydia and Mixolydia. The only one missing is
          Roqulia. And you can call me Ionia. What? You can't remember all
          that? You knew you weren't going to remember but you had me
          introduce them anyway. Oh, Alec.

  Alec:  Anyhoo, it's been a long time. You look good. My grandson was
         supposedly by here. Do you know where he went?

  Aolia:  You must mean that delightful little boy that was here earlier.
          So Flint, you must be his father. Hmmm. Now that you mention it
          you do resemble each other about the eyes.

  Alec: Claus. Where is Claus?

  Aolia:  He ran out of here at a great speed. Quite shocking, really. Kept
          going on about avenging his mother. Poor thing. So I taught him
          some PSI. I didn't think he'd be able to use it so easily.

  Alec:  So, he's not here? Why didn't you try and stop him? What will you
         do if something happens to him?

  Mixolydia:  Silly old man. We Magypsy have no interest in the lives and
              deaths of human beings.

  Flugia: Even if you live long you get at most 100 years. A blink of an
          eye. What good would it do us to be concerned with your puny life
          spans?

  Doria:  But, Mixolydia, Fligia, worrying about those their short lives is
          what makes humans humans. Alec, I sympathize with you. Maybe I
          understand it too much.

  Alec:  I don't need your sympathy. I need you to tell me where Claus went.

  Aolia:  That young boy went to Drago's plateau. That boy was thinking
          nothing of his own life or death. If you go after him now you
          might make it in time.

  Alec:  Flint, hurry! To Drago's plateau.


LEAVE AOLIA'S HOUSE.

  Alec:  Flint, we should take the cave behind this house to Drago's
         lair. That's probably the way Claus went as well. Don't worry,
         Flint. And release the tension in your shoulders. It'll never
         go well if you're all wound up.Got it?


ENTER THE CAVE.

  Alec:   It's dark in here but don't despair. I've taken this path many
          times. Leave the navigation to me. You that look on your face is
          only going to invite misfortune. Relax....

          ...The road splits here but keep going west...

          ...Now go north...

          ...Hold up. Around here there should be a pit. We need to find
             it and then jump right on down...

          ...This will take us the long way around. It'd be faster if we
             just jumped right on down that pit...

          ...Flinty-poo. Do you like that? Relax, relax....

          ...At the next crossroads head south...

          ...From here go west...

          ...Wait. (fart sound) Was that you? It wasn't me. Hahahah...

          ...Wait...lately I've been really forgetful. But I'm sure that
             we need to go north. There we can spy me some ivy.

          ...That was a joke. You know, it's ok to laugh. I said "spy me
             some ivy". Isn't that funny?

          ...Oh, a dead end. I guess we made a wrong turn back there...

          ...From here keep going north...

          ...Flint, sweetheart...don't be embarrassed...

          ...This is it. Just climb this ivy and we'll be home
             free..to-lay. It's a joke. Get it? Frito-Lay.


LEAVE THE CAVE AND ENTER YET ANOTHER CAVE. COME ACROSS SOME PIG-MASKS
AND THEY RUN AWAY. EXAMINE THE CAPSULE.

  "This is a fantastic capsule that can re-energize you instantly. Do you
   want to enter the capsule? (YES/NO)"

  "You feel like a million bucks."

WALK OUTSIDE TO SEE THE UFO FLY AWAY, YET AGAIN.

KEEP GOING NORTH UNTIL YOU SEE DRAGO'S KID. HE SEES YOU AND THEN RUNS OFF.
EXAMINE WHAT HE WAS PLAYING WITH.

  "It's Claus's favorite shoe."

  Alec:  That's Claus's shoe. And that was Drago's kid. Claus has got to
         be around here somewhere.

  Tutoriole:  Tweet! (Up ahead is Drago's lair. Proceed with caution. And
              now, in parting...Tweet!


PROCEED NORTH TO DRAGO'S CAVE.

  Alec:  Claus's other shoe. Claus, we came to save you. Where are you?

MECHA-DRAGO EMERGES.

  Alec:  What is that? It's no longer Drago. What is this monstrosity?

FIGHT MECHA-DRAGO. (don't forget to use Drago's Fang)

AFTER THE FIGHT...

  Alec:  Flint, don't...that baby is Claus's and Lucas's friend. He's
         no threat to us...


   "The people of Tazmily  Village had never known grief like this.
    On days either rainy or sunny, people greeted each other with a smile.
    They were friends with all the living creatures in the forest. The
    strong helped the weak and anything necessary was supplied. This
    was life how they knew it. However, now they all shared the grief and
    the same feeling that things were going from bad to worse.

    But since when? From where? What and why? Why were things changing? The
    creatures of the forest now look like strange robotic toys. The humans
    were being pounced upon. There was even a family that had been severed
    apart.

    What were the things behind the pig masks?

    What were those odd UFOs flying through the beautiful sky?

    The riddles lead to only more riddles and this story opens with a
    tragedy."

CHAPTER 2 - A THIEF'S ADVENTURE

============================================================================

FLINT LEAVES THE JAIL. (this is the same scene as earlier.)

   Duster: Flint. I'm not sure really what to say. But, I'm really sorry
           about Hinawa. I can't say I know what you're going though.
           Hinawa's burial is finished. Lucas has been constantly crying
           in front of her grave. I think his little heart is going to break
           apart. If I can ever do anything for you again, don't be afraid to
           ask.

   Flint:  Duster...thanks.


DUSTER AND WES ARE IN THEIR HOUSE.

  Wes:  Duster, my son. No...my apprentice. Listen up! The time has come.
        Not like I was particularly waiting for this moment. Actually, I
        hoped it would never come. In any rate, this is the time we've
        have been preparing for. It is time for you to try out all those
        skills I taught you. I'm still not sure who the enemy is, but it's
        up to us to face it. Do you feel ready? (YES/NO) Duster, I am going
        to give you a job to do. I want you to sneak into the Osohe Castle.
        I want you to find "THE IMPORTANT THING" and bring it back here.
        THE IMPORTANT THING is...well, there's no need to tell you what
        it is. A thief must be able to sense the worth of that which he is
        going to steal. If you can't, well...there's nothing more I can
        teach you. Do you want to hear a little more? (YES/NO) The thing
        is supposed to be incredibly valuable. Maybe it...shines a little?
        Possibly....   That's all I can tell you for now. I've prepared
        some things for you in the basement. Some thief paraplegics...
        no, I mean paraphernalia. How many were there again? Oh well, it
        makes no difference. They'll come in handy during battles.

GO DOWNSTAIRS TO GET THE SIX THIEF SKILLS. (listed below)

GO OUTSIDE AND HEAD FOR THE CEMETERY.

HEAD TOWARDS THE CEMETERY AND SOMEONE BUMPS INTO YOU.

  Mystery Man: Oh...I wasn't looking where I was going. Sorry, sorry. I
               apologize again but I am in a hurry. PLease excuse me. Salsa,
               let's be on our way.

GO NORTH.

  Butch:  Oh, Duster! I want to tell you something but you can't tell anyone
          else. Look at this. This bag! What do you think is in it? It's
          money. MONEY!!!! Do you know what money is? What? You don't even
          know what money is? To tell you the truth...I'm not really sure
          myself what it is. It's something that was never in Tazmily
          Village. I think that it's going to be come the Money Age. You
          just wait and see. Huh? What is the Money Age? Well, I exchanged
          my pig for this. With that traveler. He took a great interest in
          my pig. You cried and begged me to trade him for this bag of
          money. I know it all sounds strange. I decided to do it. He's
          a nice guy and we hit it off. Anyway, I got the money, so it's
          mine, right? I don't want anyone who doesn't know what it walking
          off with it, so I'm gonna hide it here in the well. Duster! You
          must promise to keep this a secret.

CHECK THE WELL.

  "You got 50000 DP....but, you put it back."


GO NORTH AGAIN AND A UFO PASSES OVER THE CEMETERY. ENTER THE CEMETERY AND
A ZOMBIE EMERGES.

  Zombie Man:  ehhhh.....Duu---sstter. Ammm IIII allliiiiveee?

  Zombie Lady: ooohhh.....dddiiidddnn'ttt IIII dddiiiiieee?

FIGHT THE ZOMBIES. AFTER THE BATTLE TALK TO NIPOLITE.

  Nipolite:  Ah, you're Wes's son, something or other. You, whatever your
             name is, always did like walking around at night.

HEAD NORTH AND GET A LOOK AT THE DRAWBRIDGE. HEAD BACK TOWARDS THE CEMETERY.

  Ant:  Anty-ant ant. (I hear a voice from somewhere. Don't you? Hey, buddy,
        look down. I'm down here. I'm an ant. Don't step on me. I've been
        watching you fight this whole time...and it's killing me. Don't
        you know anything about the rhythm of battle? Dum-de-de-dum or bop-
        bitty-doo-wop. In battle, the enemies' movements all have a
        particular rhythm. You can use that rhythm to your advantage. Do it
        right and you can get up to a 16 chain attack. I call this the....
        Ta da! Sound Battle.) Anty-out!


ENTER THE CEMETERY AND NIPOLITE WILL ENTER HIS CABIN. FOLLOW HIM IN AND
GO DOWNSTAIRS. PUSH ASIDE THE BOOKCASE TO REVEAL THE UNDERGROUND PASSAGE.

GO THROUGH THE PASSAGE.

*             advantage. At the start of the battle the enemy will be       *

*             the battle with your back turned. When things are going your  *

*             you'd have to scale the wall, or something crazy like that.   *
*****************************************************************************


INSPECT THE WALL.

  "It looks like you can climb up here. Will you use the Wall Staples?"
  (YES/NO)

GO TO ENTER THE CASTLE AND AN ANT STOPS YOU.

 Ant: Anty-ant ant. (Hey, don't you ever look down? I'm right here. It looks
      like you still haven't gotten the hang of the rhythm of battle. To
      figure out the rhythm you have to figure out the enemy's movements.
      Didn't you know that you can put them to sleep and then listen to the
      beating of their hearts? I knew that. And now you do, too. Although,
      you still can fight without worrying about rhythm.) Anty-out!


ENTER THE CASTLE. CHECK THE PAINTING.

  "You have the feeling that a woman is watching you from behind the
    painting."

CHECK THE ARMOR.

  "A suit of armor is on display."

CHECK THE STATUE.

  "The name of this piece is written on the plate...'It weighs heavy on me.'"

RUN INTO IT TO MALE THE BALL BREAK A HOLE IN THE FLOOR.

  "Do you want to jump down? (YES/NO)"

OPEN THE BOX AND A GHOST COUGHS GREEN MIST IN YOUR FACE.

  "You feel sick to your stomach."

THE SIGN IN THE NEXT ROOM READS...

  "Do you ever feel a heaviness in your stomach that keeps you
   from eating anything? If you do, you should try a REFRESH MINT to
   regain your former spunk."


A SIGN IN ANOTHER ROOM SAYS...

  "This is the Ghost Bazaar. Trade your Rotten Eclairs here."

ENTER THE GHOST BAZAAR. THERE ARE 3 ITEMS LINED UP. THE REFRESH MINT,
SNAKE ROPE AND JERKY. THE SNAKE ROPE IS NECESSARY.

Good Ghost: That's the super popular Snake Rope. You can have that for 1
         Rotten Eclair. Will you trade? (YES/NO) Thanks! This is an
         item that will be with you for the rest of your life so even
         if you think it's expensive you should buy it. Thanks again. We
         both got something we wanted. Take good care of your Snake Rope
         it'll be with you for the life of your body.


IN ANOTHER ROOM THERE IS A MOUSE.

 Mouse:  In this castle the fireplaces are secret shortcuts. But, don't
         tell the ghosts.

CHECK THE FIREPLACE...

  "There is a hole in the fireplace. Will you go in?"


IN THE LOUNGE THERE ARE MANY GHOSTS.

CLIMB UP THE WALL AND APPROACH THE GAP. THE ROPE SNAKE APPEARS.

  Rope Snake: All right...looks like it's my time to shine. Throw me over
              that candlestick there. Don't worry. I'll be fine.

NEXT TO WHERE YOU CLIMBED UP THERE IS A GHOST.

  Good Ghost: Hey, that's a Rotten Eclair, right? How about trading me for
              Jerky? (YES/NO) If you get any more Rotten Eclairs let me
              know, OK?

THERE'S ANOTHER GHOST IN FRONT OF THE DOOR.

  Good Ghost: I know you're strong but the suit of armor in this room is
              gonna rock your world. If you're ready to be rocked I'll
              step aside. Don't forget to use your thief goods and other
              goods, too.


ENTER THE BOSS'S ROOM

  Mr. Passion: My name is Mr. Passion. This is the 2nd movement of "Family
               Matters". Listen closely. (OK/NO)

SELECT NO TO START THE BATTLE.

  Mr. Passion: You have no appreciation of virtuosity.

AFTER THE BATTLE A MOUSE FALLS FROM ABOVE.

  Mouse:  Squeak! (Thanks for saving me. You should rest on the sofa.)

  "You felt something warm in your heart."


GO NORTH INTO THE NEXT ROOM.

  "There's an intricately crafted jar."
  "You got the Noble Spittoon."


HEAD BACK TO WES'S HOUSE. TALK TO NIPOLITE.

  Nipolite:  Hey, it's Wes's son. If you're going back you should take
             the drawbridge. It's faster and safer than the underground
             passageway. I'll give you the key to the drawbridge. You
             don't have to give the key back so go ahead and take it.
             The underground passage is enough for me.


BACK AT WES'S HOUSE.

  Wes:  Hey, you're back quicker than I expected. Let me see what you
        brought. This...this glossy, pleasant to the touch, intricately
        crafted jar. This is the Nobel Spittoon, a part of the Osohe
        Castle legend. Nice work. I knew my judgement was sharp. Duster,
        you are, more than I could have imagined an....................
        ...........IDIOT!!!


WES SMASHES THE NOBEL'S SPITTOON.

  Wes:  You call yourself a thief but you have no eye for value. What else?
        Fool!! You didn't bring anything else back? Were you being a
        bonehead on purpose trying to impress me? It worked, dipstick.
        Wait....what's that? Show me again. This is the thing that I was
        looking for...NOT!  Duster, is it possible that the owner of this
        pendant is the princess? Duster, your first job was
        a failure. However, I may have been too quick with my insults. I'm
        going with you. Let's head for Osohe Castle. Take me to the room
        where you got the spittoon.

HEAD TO THE CASTLE.

  Wes:  What...? What is that eerie sound?

PIG TANKS AND PIG MASK SOLDIERS INVADE THE CASTLE.

  Nipolite:  Ow, ow, ouch. They got me good. Those pig-headed things marched
             into the castle. If that's where you're headed, be careful.


ENTER THE CASTLE AND BATTLE THE CLAY GUY.

AFTER THE BATTLE HEAD TO THE ROOM WHERE YOU GOT THE SPITTOON.

AT THE STONE DOOR...

  Wes: The treasure is behind there. There are signs that someone has opened
       this door. And very recently. The only person who could open this door
       is the young lady of the castle. Duster...this is embarrassing so
       please face the other way.

WES STARTS TO DANCE.

  Wes:  Don't look!!!! I'm not sticking out my butt or anything like that.

WES FINISHES AND THE DOOR OPENS.

  Wes: When you were young I taught you that dance. I'm sure I've told you
       "when in trouble, dance" about one million and eleven times. The
       young lady is probably through here. But, there also may be more
       of those piggies. Be careful, pudding-head.



PROCEED ON AND YOU ARE ATTACKED BY A YOUNG GIRL.

  Kumatora: ....Old Man Wes? You're Old Man Wes, aren't you?

  Wes: Oh, I knew it was you. It's been a long time. I've never ever thought
       of you. No,no,no,no,no. In my happiness I made a faux pas. I meant to
       say I've never ever forgotten you. Duster, chicken-brain, do
       something.

  Kumatora: Enough. I got my leg caught in this stupid trap. There's no way
            I'm going to die here so I was debating about whether to cut off
            my leg or not.

  Wes: Haha, as reckless as ever. There's no need to cut your leg off. I'll
       use my super-duper thief skills to remove the trap. Allow me.

KUMATORA IS RELEASED FROM THE TRAP.

  Wes: Oh, you're safe now.

  Kumatora: That's my pendant. You stole it from me. I'll have to be careful
            around you. I suppose he's your son? You got some funky B.O.
            going on. Duster, huh? My name is...(naming screen) Kumatora.
            Nice to meet ya.

KUMATORA STARTS TO WALK UP THE STAIRS AND THEN TURNS BACK.

  Kumatora: What are you doing? Let's get a move on.

  Wes: Where?

  Kumatora: Don't you know? Aren't we after the same thing?

  Wes: What about your leg?

  Kumatora: It's nothing that a little spit won't fix. I'll walk it off.
            Let's go. Hey. Wes's son...you'll have to be my escort.

WALK TOWARDS THE DOOR AND THE WIND STOPS YOU.

  Gossip Wind:  HUUuuuuuuuuu.....hello. Sorry to sneak up on you like
                that. I'm the Gossip Wind, the wind that blows the
                gossip around. The rumor is that the bullish young girl named
                Kumatora who just joined your party can use PSI, which are
                supernatural powers. If this rumor turns out to be true, then
                it'll be very advantageous to you in battles. And that's all
                the gossip for now. ....uuuuuuuuuuUUH.

  Kumatora: What's wrong, son of Wes? Hustle your bustle!


KEEP GOING THROUGH THE CASTLE UNTIL YOU ARE STOPPED AGAIN.

  "Kumatora has developed a high fever."


  Gossip Wind: HUUuuuuuuuuu.....hello. Sorry to sneak up on you like
               that. I'm the Gossip Wind, the wind that blows the
               gossip around. It seems that one of your group isn't feeling
               so well. It's not poison. She's not tired. Yet somehow, she's
               feeling under the weather. She doesn't have the strength to
               run. And it's nothing that goods or the hot spring will heal.
               It's because something inside this person is trying to awaken.
               I think it'll get better with time, so don't worry about it
               too much. And that's all the gossip for now.....uuuuuuuuuuUUH.

KEEP GOING UNTIL YOU COME TO ANOTHER SIGN.

  "Beware of the broom in the next room."

PROCEED THROUGH THE CASTLE UNTIL YOU COME TO A STONE PEDESTAL.

  Wes: Here. This is it. I hid this here. Duster. This is the very thing that
       I ordered you to bring home. "The Important Thing." It's referred to
       as the Shining Egg or the Hummingbird's Egg. I personally do not
       understand the egg. The Hummingbird's Egg is an enigma wrapped in
       a riddle topped with a pretty ribbon. It's a ball of secrets.

  Kumatora: But now this ball of secrets is of the utmost importance. If it
            gets into the wrong hands, the lid of secrets will be opened and
            things will be like, really bad.

  Wes: Like if they wanted to seal something away with the egg or cause
       disasters. Wait, could they actually do that? I don't know. Anyway,
       the Hummingbird's Egg is our little secret. Hummingbird....
       To think that this little thing contains all the secrets of the
       world is actually quite humorous. Sure, it's humorous but what's
       even funnier is this chowderhead here. You couldn't sniff out this
       egg with all of its secrets concentrated like condensed milk. And
       that's why you are ninny. You're disqualified.

  Kumatora: You shouldn't say such things to your own kid. If he's really a
            a dunce he won't know it even if you tell him. Anyhoo, we cannot
            let this egg fall into the enemies hands. Oh no, they're here!
            Wes! Duster! We've got to get out of here quick.

  Wes: Wait! The Egg looked like it was just sitting there but it was really
       protected by a series of traps.

  Kumatora:  Huh.....trap?

THEY ALL FALL THROUGH THE FLOOR.

  Wes: NNNNNNOoooooooooooooooooo!

  Kumatora: Sorry!!!!

THEY LAND IN A BODY OF WATER.

  Wes: My lady....are you all right?

  Kumatora: I'm fine but...where is it?

  Wes: What? If you're talking about halfwit, he's probably fine. I've
       trained him for situations like this.

  Kumatora:  ...? Not Duster, the Egg. The Egg is gone.

  Wes:  What? Not the pea-brain but the Egg?

DUSTER APPEARS FROM UNDER THE WATER.

  Wes: Yes, the Egg! Oh, and Duster, too. I take back all the 11 times I
       called you names today. I'm looking at you in a new light. Good
       work. Applause all around.

THE SHADOW OF SOME CREATURE COMES INTO VIEW.

  Wes: Maybe it was a little soon for applause.



DEFEAT THE SEA SERPENT.

  Wes:  Now what?

EVERYONE GETS SUCKED DOWN A DRAIN AND THEY WAKE UP ON THE BANK OF THE RIVER.
LIGHTER RESCUES THEM AND TAKES THEM HOME.

WES RISES FROM BED.

  Kumatora: Oh, you're awake!

  Wes: Is this my house?

  Fuel: Wes, you and this bullish girl here washed up on the bank of the
        river. It was a good thing I was out with my father. If I had
        been by myself, I would have pretended not to see you.

  Wes: I see. Thanks, Fuel. Wasn't numbskull there as well?

  Lighter: Are you talking about Duster. No, there was just the May-
           December pair of you two.

  Wes: That goon...I mean, Duster...when I see him I'm going to take the
       gloves off and really let him have it.

  Lighter: You were both unconscious. Maybe you should just relax and take
           it easy for a while.

  Kumatora: (to Wes) What are you talking about? Let's go look for him right
            away.

HEAD INTO THE VILLAGE.

ENTER THE VILLAGE AND THERE IS A CROWD MILLING AROUND THE WELL.

  Butch: Wes! Where's that jerk Duster? Duster was the only person who knew
         about my bag of money hidden in the well and now it's gone. Which
         means that the criminal is Duster. That was my money!!

  Lisa: You've been saying that for a while now but tell me, where did you
        get something like that? What is money, anyway?

  Brenda: This sure is a strange story.

  Butch: Shut up! Shut up! SHUT UP!!!!! Wes, Duster is a thief, am I right?
         There was nothing in this village to steal so he took a long
         vacation, but as soon as something cool like money appeared he
         had to have it.

  Kumatora: You better shut your mouth or I'll shut it for you!

KUMATORA CHASES BUTCH AROUND FOR A LITTLE.

  Butch: Who are you? Another thief? I'm anti-violence. And you're trying
         to do violence. Violence!

  Flint: Butch and everyone needs to calm down. You can make all the racket
         you want, but the fact of the matter is that Duster isn't here so
         we don't know anything. Wes, I and the other villagers believe you.
         We'll just have to wait for Duster to return.

  Wes: I hope that nincompoop comes home soon.


       "The strange group responsible for fiddling with the animals in the
        forest and turning them into monsters have begun their plan to
        change the villages, way of living and even, hearts of the humans.

        Something larger appears to be hidden in the strange movements of
        peddler and his monkey.

        However, there are some who are not content to fold their arms and
        accept this attack on their people.

        Flint, whose strength is the bond of family.

        Duster, the thief of justice.

        And finally, a character introduced quite suddenly, Princess
        Kumatora.

        Fate is trying to assemble those who use their powers for good.

        And where is that weakling, Lucas?



===========================================================================

CHAPTER 3 - THE SUSPICIOUS PEDDLER

===========================================================================

THE CHAPTER STARTS WITH A HUGE UFO, PIG-MASKS AND TWO MONKEYS. THE PEDDLER,
YOKUBA, COMES IN.

  Yokuba: Listen, monkey, do as your told or your girlfriend is going to die.
          Be good and you'll be able to have a happy little reunion. Don't
          you understand that? You, and your love both, could lose your
          lives.


YOKUBA ZAPS THE MONKEY WITH AN ELECTRIC SHOCK.

  Yokuba: How was that? Feel good? That collar around your neck isn't just
          any old collar. It's something that can punish you, even if you run
          to the far side of the desert. Come to think of it, I haven't named
          you yet. I think the time has come for you to get one. Something
          cute...Nehehehe. Ok, idiot monkey. You're new name is Salsa. I'm
          only going to say this once, so listen up! If you want to have an
          enjoyable adventure with me, you must first remember two things:
          1. You and me are the best of pals. We go way back. And don't try
          to run away. And be friendly. Got it? (YES/NO) The second thing is
          to never disobey my orders. If I say dance, you dance. If I say
          laugh, you laugh. Got it? (YES/NO) Just do as I say and we can both
          avoid any unpleasant memories. Neheheheh. Huh? You have a spark
          of defiance in your eyes. Dance! No, not that dance!

SALSA GETS SHOCKED AGAIN.

  Yokuba: What is that dance? That one's even embarrassing to watch. What a
          strange monkey. Do something else. Good. good. Now laugh! Now
          somersault! Splendid! Good, anyone who sees us will think that we
          are a performance duo.


THE PIGMEN, WITH SALSA'S GIRLFRIEND, RETREAT INTO THE UFO AND TAKE OFF.


  Yokuba:  Hey, stupid monkey. Only cry when I tell you to cry. Don't think
           that you can just cry whenever you want to cry. Admonish!


YOKUBA ZAPS SALSA WITH ELECTRICITY AGAIN.


  Yokuba: Hey! How long you going to stand there? To the west of here is a
          white round building. That's where we're headed.

*****************************************************************************

THE SIGN READS:

   "Frogs in the desert? Even in the extremely arid desert areas of Africa
    there exists a type of frog known as the Sand Frog. In this region there
    is no possibility of rain so the frogs burrow underground to avoid
    becoming dehydrated."


APPROACH THE WHITE ROUND BUILDING AND SOMETHING GROWLS AT YOU.


 Yokuba: Salsa, that is the Cactus Wolf, the most savage beast in the desert.
         As long as he's standing there we have no way to get in the
         building. Let's take him down! If you get beat I'm going to have to
         punish you again.


DEFEAT THE CACTUS WOLF AND OPEN THE DOOR TO THE BUILDING.

  Yokuba: Go in!


GO THROUGH THE DOOR AND MAKE YOUR WAY DOWN THE PASSAGE.

  Yokuba: Hey, stupid monkey, look!


HE SHOCKS SALSA WITH ELECTRICITY.

  Yokuba: That is a high-tech transport called Pork and Beans. Let's get
          in and take it to that horribly primitive backwater town,
          Tazmily . It'd take for ever to walk there but in the Pork
          and Beans, we'll be there before you can say, Nuhahahaha.
          Were you listening? (YES/NO) You can go down over there.

WALK NEAR THE REFRESH CAPSULE...

  Yokuba: Get inside that thing and relax and you'll feel refreshed
          and raring to go. It's called the Amazing Capsule and it really
          is something else. Normally it would be wasted on a stupid monkey
          like you but today I'll give you special permission.


GO DOWN THE LADDER.

  Yokuba: Don't get in it yet, idiot. Listen up. If you want to stop
          the Pork and Beans while traveling, press the button with
          the B on it. Once you're stopped, press B again to get out.
          Were you listening? (YES/NO) If you understand, hurry up and
          get in.

  "Do you want to board the Pork and Beans?" (YES/NO)


RIDE THE PORK AND BEANS WEST TO THE END. THE SIGN SAYS:

  "Please, whatever you do, don't throw any Running Bombs in this room.
   It'll get smokey."


FIGHT THE ENEMIES AND TAKE THE LADDER TO THE SURFACE. YOU EMERGE IN THE
CEMETERY.

  Yokuba: In the village to the south is the Yado. It's a place to stay.
          That's where we're headed.


HEAD INTO THE VILLAGE. TALK TO BUTCH...

  Yokuba: So, how's that wonderful bag I gave you? Do you like it?

  Butch: Oh, Yokuba. Don't threaten me...I'm counting all the money now.

  Yokuba: Nuhahahah, make sure some thief doesn't come along and swipe
          it from you.


ENTERING THE VILLAGE YOU RUN INTO DUSTER.

  Yokuba: Oh...I wasn't looking where I was going. Sorry, sorry. I
          apologize again but I am in a hurry. PLease excuse me. Salsa,
          let's be on our way.

  Butch:  Oh, Duster! I want to tell you something but you can't tell anyone
          else. Look at this. This bag! What do you think is in it? It's
          money. MONEY!!!! Do you know what money is? What? You don't even
          know what money is? To tell you the truth...I'm not really sure
          myself what it is. It's something that was never in Tazmily
          Village. I think that it's going to be come the Money Age. You
          just wait and see. Huh? What is the Money Age? Well, I exchanged
          my pig for this. With that traveler. He took a great interest in
          my pig. You cried and begged me to trade him for this bag of
          money. I know it all sounds strange. I decided to do it. He's
          a nice guy and we hit it off. Anyway, I got the money, so it's
          mine, right? I don't want anyone who doesn't know what it walking
          off with it, so I'm gonna hide it here in the well. Duster! You
          must promise to keep this a secret.

YOKUBA IS HIDING BEHIND THE WELL, LISTENING. HE REAPPEARS AFTER DUSTER AND
BUTCH LEAVE.

  Yokuba:  Nuhahahah.


ENTER THE YADO INN

TALK TO JACKIE.

  Yokuba:  How much for a room?

  Jackie:  How much....?

  Betsy:  There's no charge at all. Feel free to stay.

  Yokuba: I see. But I suppose you wouldn't mind if I gave you this...


HE HANDS OVER A BIG BAG OF MONEY.

  Betsy: We'll accept your kind offer. Thank you. It'll make a nice door
         stopper. The middle room is all made up. Please have a good
         night's sleep.

  Yokuba: Thank you very much. Salsa, can you say thank you?


SALSA DANCES AND GETS ZAPPED WITH ELECTRICITY.

  Betsy: Oh my. What's the matter?

  Yokuba: It's nothing. He's probably just tired from the long trip. Well,
          good night. Salsa, let's go to our room.


GO TO YOUR ROOM.

  Yokuba:  From tomorrow I'm putting you to work. Get some sleep!


IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT YOKUBA GET UP AND LEAVES. LEAVE THE INN. YOU
HEAR YOKUBA'S VOICE. HE'S TALKIN GOT SOMEONE ON A CELL-PHONE.

  Yokuba: I see. You've made it to Osohe Castle. Wait for daybreak and then
          storm it. Everything on my side is going peachy. What? You saw
          another person in front of the castle? Why didn't you stop him?
          Whatever, it doesn't matter. It was probably just some drunk
          villager lost on the way home. Huh? It was a guy dragging his
          feet? I think I might have seen him, too. He had kind of
          brownish hair, slight B.O. and looked destitute. Don't worry
          about him. Leave it to me. You get tighten the defense.

YOKUBA STEALS BUTCH'S BAG OF MONEY FROM THE WELL.

APPROACH YOKUBA AND HE ZAPS SALSA TWO TIMES.

  Yokuba: Did you think that...ZAP...you could run away from me? ....ZAP
          That's why you are...ZAP...a stupid monkey. Go back to the room
          and sleep. What is that look? Laugh!!


SALSA DANCES.

  Yokuba: You know, if you're going to run away you could be a little smarter
          about it. You could try disguises or hiding your footprints. But,
          monkeys are to stupid to think of that, I guess. Nuhahahaha.

BACK IN THE ROOM SALSA IS HAVING NIGHMARES ABOUT BEING SHOCKED BY YOKUBA. A
SHOCK WAKES HIM UP.

  Yokuba: How late are you planning to sleep, idiot? Whatever. Today you're
          going to perform tricks. Use your interestingly odd tricks to win
          the hearts of these villagers. Do it well and you'll be free and
          I'll take you to where your woman is. But, if you bore everyone
          I'll have to punish you again.

IN THE TOWN SQUARE, PEOPLE ARE GATHERING.

  Yokuba:  Good people of Tazmily . Good job on the hard work you do
           everyday. I have an announcement of great happiness for you today.
           Blue sky...white clouds...a bountiful harvest...stout livestock
           ...a loving family and friendly neighbors....this village
           is full of many wonderful things. However, something somewhere is
           lacking. A small anxiety is creeping into your daily life. Is
           that how you really want to live? Don't you feel that there's a
           better life out there waiting for you? I'm sure you've all felt
           like that at some time. On the outskirt of the village are strange
           animals like you have never seen before. In the sky are huge
           balloon shaped ships. Why? What is happening? And then, according
           to the Gossip Wind, in the near future lightning will begin to
           strike everyday and burn all the forests. So, did that make you
           smile? You're probably wondering how this relates to happiness.
           I truly believe that this will come to be. It is because of this
           that I want you to be happy. I want you to live with smiles on
           your faces. Today is your lucky chance. Happiness is easy to
           obtain. My cute monkey, Salsa, looks to be dancing happily. He
           has obtained the secret of happiness. And just how did he obtain
           it, you ask? Those of you interested in that answer please raise
           your hand. Who wants to be happy?!! Great. Salsa, please go
           around and ask these people their names. Everyone, please keep
           your hands in the air.

  Biff:  I'm Biff. I'm not really sure what's going on but if it's something
         I can get, I guess I'll take it.

  Abbey:  I'm Abbey. I look up to my husband, Abbot. Having too much
          happiness isn't a bad thing, right?

  Isack: I'm Isack. If I can get happy that easily I guess I'll try it.

  Abbot: I'm Abbot. I love collecting things and since I was a kid I've
         gathered a lot of different things, but...it's kind of hard to
         explain. I thought I'd gather some happiness as well. I want to
         see what happiness is I guess.


TALK TO YOKUBA AGAIN...

  Yokuba:  Ladies and gentlemen. I want all of you to be happy. Those of you
           who didn't raise your hand, please think it over and if you
           should decide you,too, want to be happy, please feel free to
           ask me. Today's show is finished. I pray that your village
           overflows with happiness. Thank you. Salsa, let's return to
           the Inn.


IN THE INN YOKUBA GETS A PHONE CALL.


  Yokuba: It's me. How's it going? Did you find "IT"? What? There were
          other people in the castle? Maybe you should get rid of them.
          Huh? You're afraid? Got it. When I'm finished here I'll head over
          there. In the meantime,  you MUST find "IT".

HE HANGS UP.

  Yokuba: Monkey, the HAPPY BOX is hidden in the cemetery. Go and
          leave it at the houses of the people who raised their hands.
          Abbot, Abbey, Biff and Isack. What? Where are their houses? You
          think I know? Find out yourself! Don't think that you can run away
          when you're done delivering. Make sure to come back to this room.
          If you can't finish this task in 23 minutes, the punishments are
          going to get even more severe. If that happens we'll have monkey
          BBQ. If you should try to run away or disobey me I'll have to
          start punishing your girlfriend as well. Got it? (YES/NO) If you
          understand, get going! If you finish in less than 22 minutes,
          I'll give you a banana or something. It's really mean to keep
          you without something to eat or drink. Be grateful! Nuhahahaha.

LEAVE THE INN.

HEAD TO THE CEMETERY AND TALK TO MAPSON.

  Mapson:  Do you have business with the map-loving, map-holding Mapson?
           Oh, you're a monkey but you have a map. Cool. I am really in the
           mood to mark your map free of charge. Let me see it.

PICK UP A HAPPY BOX AND DELIVER IT TO A PLACE MARKED ON THE MAP.

  Abbot: Ohohohoh. The Happy Box! Yes! Thanks monkey.

  Abbey: Abbot, you ordered one, also? I guess we don't need two of them.
         I'd like to cancel my order. Sorry.


  Biff: Oh, arigato! Now I can be happy, too! It's working. I already feel
        happy.


  Isack: Oh! It's the...what is it? I wonder if this thing will really make
         me happy.

HEAD BACK TO THE ROOM AT THE INN.

  Yokuba: 25 minutes...too bad. If you had been 3 minutes faster I was
          thinking about giving you a Special Banana. But, I guess you
          didn't want it. You insolent monkey! Nuhahahaha. (He zaps Salsa)
          Hey, how are long are you planning on being unconscious? Stupid
          monkey. We're off to Osohe Castle.


HEAD TO OSOHE CASTLE. TALK TO THE PIG-MASKS INSIDE.

  Yokuba: What's the matter? Did you find "IT"? What? Not yet? There are
          other people here besides us? An old man and a sad-looking man?
          It's got to be that poor looking guy with brown hair and B.O.
          Where is he? They're headed for the top floor? !@#$%%^^^&&**(!!
          Do not let them get away!!

*****************************************************************************

GO TO LEAVE AND YOKUBA GETS A PHONE CALL.

  Yokuba: Yeah? What? They escaped underground? They have "IT"? Come on,
          monkey. We're going downstairs. The entrance should be around here
          somewhere. Find it!

GO DOWNSTAIRS AND CHECK THE WALL TO LEARN THE A, B AND C PARTS TO THE DANCE.
APPROACH THE DOOR.

  Yokuba: It's behind this door. Hey, stupid monkey. Do something to open it!

CHECK THE DOOR AND SALSA DOES THE DANCE. THE DOOR OPENS.

  Yokuba: Woah, nice work. I'll give a reward.

YOKUBA ZAPS HIM WITH ELECTRICITY.

  Yokuba: Nuhahaha. Get moving.


HEAD THROUGH THE UNDERGROUND. EXAMNINE THE LEVER AT THE END.

  Yokuba: What's this? This lever. Hey, pull on the lever. (OK/NO)

WATER RUSHES IN AND KUMATORA, WES AND DUSTER ARE SWEPT BY.

  Yokuba: It's them. They're escaping through the waterway.

SOME PIG-MASKS SHOW UP.

  Yokuba: What? They took "IT" and escaped with it? Go after them, go after
          them, GO AFTER TH-----------EM!! No, I'm not barfing. I'm telling
          you to chase after them. Contact me as soon as you find them.
          Monkey, between you and them I don't know who's more useless.
          Let's get back to the Inn.


LEAVE THE CASTLE. THE DRAWBRIDGE IS BLOCKED WITH TANKS.

  Yokuba: What do you think you're doing? Hurry up and move those tanks!

  Pig-Mask #1: Hey, that's an order from Yokuba. Move these tanks!

  Pig-Mask #2: Yokuba was looking at you when he said that. You move the
               tanks back!

  Yokuba: SHUT UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP!!!!!! It doesn't matter who I was
          talking to. Both of you...MOVE THESE TANKS!!!!!

  Yokuba: Now the day's almost over, you idiots.

  Pig-Mask #1: (to Pig-mask #2) It's your fault, idiot!

  Pig-Mask #2: Yokuba was looking at you when he said idiot, idiot!

  Pig-Mask #1: The one who said idiot is the idiot.

  Yokuba: You're both idiots!! Now hurry up and look for them!


HEAD TO THE TOWN SQUARE. PEOPLE ARE ARGUING ABOUT BIFF'S STOLEN MONEY.

  Biff: Wasn't it you who let Duster escape?

  Wes: I did not do that. Besides, there was no need.

  Yokuba: People, people, people...somebody stole the bag of money, you
          say? It seems that this village has become cursed. We cannot
          let this wrongdoers run rampant in this village. You must
          pursue happiness. Otherwise, this village is in danger.

SALSA APPROACHES KUMATORA.

  Kumatora: ...

THERE'S A FLASH OF LIGHT.

  Yokuba: What's the matter. You like that girl, there? Let's go back to the
          Inn. I'll give you all the gourmet bananas you can eat.

BACK AT THE ROOM YOKUBA ZAPS SALSA AGAIN.

  Yokuba: Stupid monkey. You still have no clue as to you're standing in
          life, do you? Next time, if you don't obey my order or if your
          movements are even a little bit strange, your jewel of a girlfriend
          if going to meet with great misfortune. Remember that! Now go to
          sleep!

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT...


  Kumatora: Psst! Psst....monkey.


GO TO SNEAK OUT AND YOKUBA ZAPS YOU IN HIS SLEEP. APPROACH THE WINDOW AND
KUMATORA AND WES APPEAR.

  Kumatora: Hey, monkey. We've come to rescue you. Don't worry about that
            fake. He's sleeping. Come on!

AT THE WELL...

  Wes: Everything's fine.

  Kumatora: I didn't think you were friends with that fake. I'm sure
            you were there by circumstance. You poor thing.

  Wes: That ignoramus Duster is off somewhere with the Egg. Let's go
       look for him. Wherever he is and whatever he's doing, I doubt he's
       injured or sick.

  Kumatora: Yeah. We need to search for Duster and the Egg. But first, lets
            set this monkey free. Wes, while that phoney is sleeping could
            you steal his shocking machine?

  Wes: Sure. I shoulda stole it when we there before. I'll be back in a
       flash.

  Kumatora: Monkey, it's ok to relax now. I'm sure that was rough.


SALSA GETS SHOCKED.

  Wes: I'm back. And I got the machine. On the way back I kind of played
       with it. Did I shock you? Sorry about that.

  Kumatora: Monkey, go ahead and smash it.

SALSA JUMPS ON THE MACHINE AND ZAPS HIMSELF IN THE PROCESS.

  Kumatora: Monkey, you can go. You're free now. Is something keeping you
            from running away? Ah, I see, she's been kidnapped...I mean,
            monkeynapped. That dirty rat-bastard.

  Yokuba: You called? I am the aforementioned dirty rat-bastard...NOT.
          So, you are Princess Kumatora. Nuhahahaha. Stupid monkey, did
          you really think you could escape?

  Kumatora: He can. I'll help him. (Monkey, Wes, are you ready? 1,2,3...)

SALSA AND WES RUN AWAY.

  Kumatora: (...and then we'll run away. Ready?) (Oh, you guys are fast)


SHE RUNS AWAY.

  Yokuba: After them! (on his phone) They're headed your way. I see. Stand
          by. I'll be there shortly. There's no way they can escape.


WES, KUMATORA AND SALSA STOP.

  Kumatora: Let's head to the forest.


RUN THROUGH THE FOREST UNTIL YOU COME UPON A TANK.

  Kumatora: They knew we were coming. Monkey, let's find another route.

GO NORTH AND THERE IS ANOTHER TANK.

  Kumatora: There's another one. We have to go back.

GO SOUTH AND ANOTHER TANK ENTERS. PIG-MASKS ENTER FROM THE NORTH.

  Kumatora: We're surrounded. Bring it on, then!

DESTROY THE TANK AND YOKUBA SHOWS UP WITH ANOTHER ONE.

  Yokuba:  Princess Kumatora, couldn't you just calmly obey us?


LUCAS WANDERS IN FROM THE NORTH.

  Yokuba: What? Who are you? Kid, go away.

LUCAS WHISTLES AND DRAGO'S KID APPEARS.

  Yokuba: Oh my pork! Why is Drago's kid in a place like this? Hey, Drago's
          kid. Go away!

DRAGO'S KID ROARS AND DRAGO, NOW BACK TO NORMAL, APPEARS AND ATTACKS THE
PIG-MASKS. THEY ALL RUN AWAY.

  Yokuba: Hey, where you going? (to Drago) Please...don't...

  Kumatora: Monkey, does this make you happy?

SALSA WHISTLES AND DRAGO ATTACKS YOKUBA, CRUSHES THE TANK AND RUNS OFF.

  Wes: Lucas, I heard that after your mother died you spent all your time
       crying. But, you look pretty good. You saved us. Thank you.

  Kumatora: Nice to meet you. And, thanks! I don't know your situation but
            thank you for saving us. Wes, how about you fill him in?

  Wes: Ok, I'll explain everything. Lucas, are you interested? (YES/NO)
       You see.................and that's it. Lucas, you should head back to
       Tazmily . I'm Claus will be back soon as well. Help your father to
       protect the village. I'll do everything in my power to help you.
       Princess, the monkey is now your responsibility. And searching for
       the dunderhead.

  Kumatora: Lucas, I have a feeling we'll meet again. See you. Monkey, let's
            go.


     "Tazmily  Village is changing exactly as the peddler had planned it.
      Only very few of the villagers noticed that once good things in the
      village were being abandoned. The village was becoming more prosperous
      but the eerie darkness had also grown thicker.

      However, in that darkness, a once weak boy tried to become stronger.
      Lucas, is trying to paint this tragic story with a bright future.

      The darker the night becomes, the sun becomes that much brighter. The
      wheedling Lucas is now becoming that sun."
