Alice, who has been living the volunteer life in a Non-Governmental
Organization, has recently been tending to the those injured by the earthquakes
in the area.
A girl came before Alice. She was wearing the clothes of a Shinto oracle.
A child wearing an oracle's clothes walking over a disaster area seemed out of
place. Alice called to the girl, her heart aflutter. She spoke, and requested
that Alice tend to a man named Ryouhou.
Not knowing all the circumstances, alice tried to refuse her. However,
something she said struck a chord with Alice.
"Those earthquakes recently were our fault...."
Alice followed her in order to look into it more deeply.

While investigating the earthquakes and the "Beastman Rampage Incident" that
had occurred once again, Kakeru met a fox in the mountains. The fox started to
walk before him, looking a bit like a puppy. The fox was getting in the way of
his investigations, so along the way, he gave it food, and tried to distract it.
However, no matter how many times he did that, it kept coming back, so he just
gave up and let the fox go with him.
"Guess I've got no choice. Do you keep coming around because you're worried
about me?" Just as he said that, the fox ran away.
Kakeru followed it. At the fox's destination, a beastman was going on a ram-
page.
"Oh! So you were trying to tell me about that!"
Kakeru became wrapped up in a battle with new beastmen....

It's been one year since the Crest Incident. Busujima could not get any good
results in the end, and spends his days in a lonely depression.
When the "Beastman Rampage Incident" started to cause noise around the world,
he stood, newly resolute!
"If I just lie around like this, I'll never catch the legendary animal and make
a new kind of beastman!"
Busujima headed into the mountains, searching for the animal. There, he met a
white fox. Not seeing Busujima, the fox got up and left the area.
"There's a legend in Japan about a nine-tailed fox, right? Alright, then!
Let's go catch that fox and build it up!!"
In the end, will Busujima be able to capture the fox?

At one time, there was a man named Ryuuzou Katou who was known as the original
Bakuryuu, an assassin that workd with the Tailong Corporation, which aimed to
gather only the strength of the beastmen. His body was destroyed by many
useless operations in an attempt to strengthen him, but his remains were passed
along to someone.
Part of the Tailong Corporation, the "Yun Chi Manufacturing," still existed
after its parent company was destroyed. Using Bakuryuu I's battle data,
they produced a fighting robot body called the "Iron Mole," and added to it
Bakuryuu I's remains, which held his physical abilities.
However, the prototype went on a rampage. As if it possessed a will of its own,
it began to attack the beastmen....

Long was searching through his own archive, gathering information about the
"Beastman Rampage Incidents" that were happening again.
As night fell, he heard what sounded like an animal's call from near his home's
entrance.
When he went to the entrance, he found a white fox shivering, huddled up. He
felt sad for the poor fox, so he gave it some food. As he looked at the fox as
it ate the food, he noticed that there was a piece of paper wrapped around its
foot.
Taking the paper and unwrapping it, he found that it was a map to a temple.
"Ah, so you've come from this temple, hm? I see. I'll see you get to the
temple."
Long left his house with the white fox, and behind him, a beastman who had
become violently dangerous followed them....

it in her body.
Yuugo and the others dipelled the incident, and so the power stayed dormant.
A year later, in order to kill Xion, who had become The Unborn, the beast power
began to awaken.
In order to find out the secret of her beast form, she searches for Xion.

In a lone temple deep in the mountains lived a group of four clans of fighting
monks called the "Yatagarasu." In these clans was passed down the beastman
power, and the power to transform was sealed until the inheritor could be
judged an adult.
However, an heir of the families of this building, Reiji, had his seal broken
unfortunately before the coming-of-age ceremony because of the Crest Incident. Because of the suddenness of the incident, Reiji, who deep
down possessed strong, destructive impulses, killed his father, a member of
one of the four clans, and fled from the temple.
Reiji, discovering the pleasure of killing a strong person, started to reach out
to any beastman he could in order to gain the power to defeat the white beastman
who watched from the main temple chambers as he fled from there and the remain-
ing Yatagarasu.

There was a temple that fled from the law enacted during the Meiji Restoration
that separated Buddhist and Shinto religious activities, and still practices
them, worshipping in a cave. At that temple lived a monk named Ryouhou. For
some reason, when the temple was attacked y the white beastman (Xion), he lost
his memories of the events there.
After this incident, he took in a Shinto oracle named Mana who held the power
of the nine-tailed fox. Those pursuing Mana broke off, and a year later, earth-
quakes and Beastman Rampage Incidents began occurring.
These conditions were the same as the developments of the white beastman's
attack. Ryouhou sensed a coming battle, and fearing that he would damage the
temple, he led Mana out on a journey....

Shen-Long was being followed. His daily activities aren't what you could call
on the up-and-up, but even still, he couldn't guess why he was being targeted
by a beastman. Thoroughly worn out, he scuttled away to some back alley. It
was a dead end, and there was a man hanging out there. Getting a better look at
him, he appeared to be a fortune teller.
"You're being followed by a beastman, aren't you?" the fortune teller asked him.
Shen-Long shouted, "Shut up! It's a matter of life and death! What the hell
could you do about it?"
"You are being haunted by an evil soul! In order to escape from this curse, you
must obtain a blessing from this temple!" The fortune teller produced a map for
Shen-Long.
"You serious?! If you're tryin' to cheat me, I'm not gonna let you off the
hook, you know!"
Another beastman came between the fortune teller and his client, and attacked.

"Beast Rampage Incidents" are alraedy happening all around the world. Marvel
received an order from the general staff headquarters of a certain country
regarding the incidents. It read:
"The investigating unit sent to Japan, where the Beast Rampage Incidents are
occurring, has vanished at a certain temple. They are provoking us. Marvel,
you will find out their whereabouts, and then report. We are prepared to
dispatch our special forces in the worst-case scenario."
When Marvel arrived to Japan, she remembered the days she spent involved in
the "Beast Crest Incident" a year before. The word "rest" is not in her
vocabulary.

It's been one year since the "Crest Incident." As usual, he spent his days
struggling with the intense pain running through his body. Stun was running out
of patience. He didn't know how long he would have to have his enhanced body.
He was also gripped with the feeling that if he could have a long life, he would
want to preserve it tomorrow, too.
Stun, wrapped up in this uneasiness, got information that there is a Shinto
oracle who could seal the power of the beast.
There was not much time left. All that is left for him is to leave this single
ray of hope in the oracle's hands....

A shadow appeared before the beastmen who continued their battles from out of
nowhere....
The Tailong Corporation created the ultimate beastman weapon by experimenting
on Uriko, called the "War Chimaera." However, Uriko has long lost the ability
to turn into that form. Has something sleeping inside her awakened? Did they
make a clone? Or, could it be that the present has somehow become suddenly
linked to the time when Uriko was the "War Chimaera?"
"Uranus" is god of the sky, husband to "Gaea"....
It is the name of a god who gave birth to the god of time, Chronus, and was
fated to be killed by him....

When Uriko was walking around town, she came upon the scene of some grade
school students gathered around and prodding at something. When she got closer
to see what was going on, it looked like what they were poking at was a white
dog.
Uriko shouted, "Hey, hey!! Don't you pick on animals!!" The children, shocked
from sudden shouting, scattered off in all directions. Perhaps out of grat-
itude, the dog lept at Uriko, and licked all over her face. Then, biting at the
hem of her clothes, the dog pulled at her, and led her off somewhere.
"H-hold on--! Where are you taking me?!" Unable to resist, she was led off by
the white dog.
Uriko called to the dog. "Hey, what's your name? Is it on your collar--? Oh,
you aren't wearing one. Well, I'll name you, then!"
The dog looked at Uriko mysteriously.
"Let's see now...you're white, so maybe 'Haku-chan' would do," she selfishly
suggested.
[NOTE: "Haku" means "white," "chan" is an affectionate "san."]
"Well, maybe a cuter name would do better! Let's see...it's been decided! Your
name is 'Pakupon!'"
And so, the white dog(?) became arbitrarily named "Pakupon" by Uriko.

Xion reflected upon the incident one year ago....
"I was going to defeat a woman with these hands. She tried to say something or
other, but I didn't hear it. She was not a beastman. What was standing before
me was the truth. I had to remove what stood in the way of me accomplishing my
goals.
"It seemed that the other beastmen wanted to live together with the humans, but
that had nothing to do with us, the Unborn.
"I got close to her fallen form, and muttered this:
'Humans, aren't you making a mistake, trying to defeat me?'
"Was what I said at that time really my own words? I still don't know. All I
know for sure now is that the beastmen are again coming before me to defeat me.
The battle has already begun...."
