Welcome. Chief Red is waiting for you.
Please report to him.
Red
Good work.
While you were out on that mission, that lady went up to me...
I swore I thought she'd never stop talking.
In any case, here's your next mission...
...I'm sorry, but it's kind of a personal request.
It doesn't have much to do with the Arkz...
A boy named Romeo lost his pet rappy somewhere in Lupus Silva.
Could you recover it quickly? I want him to have it back.
Thanks.

Red
Ah, right... You have some new team members starting this mission.
They're stationed in the Central Control Room right now,
so you can use them starting with the next mission.
Game
......
You can now use the Story Character Card Rufina.
......
You can now use the Story Character Card K.C..
......
You can now use the Story Character Card Memoru.
Red
...I'm sorry, but this is kind of a personal request.
It doesn't have much to do with the Arkz...
but I'm counting on you to carry it out.
Vice Chief
There are three people joining your team:
Rufina,
K.C,
and Memoru.
They've just gotten back from their last mission.
You'll be able to deploy them next time, so go ahead and say hello.
Communication is a very important thing.
Romeo, the boy who asked us to help him, had lost both of his parents.
The man who took him in... his current father,
has been deeply involved with the Arkz from the very beginning,
and he's done a lot for the Chief, I hear.
This man has lost his social standing in Pioneer 2...
and I think the Chief wants to help him out any way he can.
I hope you can help him with this.
Lura
Did you already say hi to them?
There are a few people here who are new to you, [NAME].
Let's hang in there together!
I know all about K.C.
He's pretty chummy with Break, you know!
Hmm, Rufina... I never met her directly before she joined the Arkz.
She came to know Break
back when I was in long-term maintenance.
That must have been how they became friends.
Mmmm... I'm a little jealous.
You know, I'm very close friends with Break!
Oh, but you know that.
Tee-hee.
He doesn't look it, but he's pretty shy...
One time, I tried giving him a birthday present,
that's when his face turned red like an apple!
...ooh, that also made me feel so, so embarassed!
......
You know what? Whenever I fight alongside Break, I feel more powerful!
I'd do anything to help out Break.
If you ever deploy Break somewhere, try to deploy me, too. Okay?
Rufina
Hey, look...
Don't stare at people in the face like that, all right?
Eye patches aren't that rare, you know.
Is it weird for a woman to be wearing one or something?
I think you're being very rude!
It doesn't matter if you're my commander. You need common courtesy.
All right? Try to be careful next time.
...Oh. Uh,
how about I introduce myself, then?
My name is Rufina. I'm a Hunter with the Arkz.
I'm just getting used to cards, so I'm really not good with them yet.
I'm a lot better at moving my body, though...
so I'd appreciate it if you remember that when you give me orders.
Also... I might as well tell you about my eye patch.
There's a synthetic eye under this patch. I had an accident before, see.
That's all there is to it. Really.
Oh, but I can carry out missions normally, so don't worry.
Well, anyway, nice to meet you.
Break... isn't here, I guess.
Is he on a mission?
...Busy as always, I guess.
Sheesh.
You could always deploy me sometime, you know...
K.C.
My new commanding officer, thou must be.
I am called K.C. I work as a Ranger,
and indeed, I look forward to your gifted direction.
......
Well!
Hesitate not to ask me all thy wishes.
'Tis a fine chance to hear what kind of man I am,
as well as what skills I am capable of.
Say, do I, that long-range fire is my most potent skill.
I can also hold up other arms with much skill as well when
needs be. Adapting to the situation is most important in battle.
Thou will understand if thou truly treads the warrior's path,
but that is what "battle" is all about... ...Adaptation.
I have been fond friends with Break from long ago.
No!
Together, we walked the line of death on the battle field...
a comrade who I've stared death in the eyes with many a time.
Memoru
Who the heck are you?
The new commander?
Hmm... You think you're all that, don't you?
I'm a pretty tough woman, you know.
I used to be a lone wolf until fairly recently.
No, wait. Actually, how about you call me...
Lady Memoru?
I'm way stronger than anyone else here, so it's only right.
Well, anyway, call me out to battle sometime. I may just help you out.
You lucked out getting me, you know?
Now you've got one of the toughest and cutest Arkz ever on your team.
Oh, right!
There's someplace I wanna go to now.
Could you deploy me there? Come on, hurry!
You better do it! Okay? You better!

Memoru
I trained at a place called the "H.T.C."
There wasn't a single person who could beat me in a fight.
......
...No, wait, I lied. There was one.
I lost to a girl named Viviana a few times... or just Vivi.
That girl started treating me like her little sis,
so I got pissed and left the place.
Hmph!
Man, whenever I think about Vivi...
uggh... it makes me mad.
...What? You got a problem with that?
Why'd I have to remember all that?
It's all your fault, Commander. You know that?
For your punishment, you gotta send me wherever I want!
Got it??
Researcher 2
The technology behind the Creature Cards we use
hasn't been completely developed yet, so the
creatures disappear after a certain period of time.
Furthermore, the creatures have no will of their own,
but that lets us control them easily, so it works to our advantage.
I don't like using the creatures like this, but we lack the weapon
research of Pioneer 2. This is the only way we can fight against them.
Robot 1
BEEP!
The Creature Cards we use can be divided into four different types.
These are:
Native creatures,
A.Beast creatures,
Machine creatures,
and Dark creatures. BEEP!
Putting the right combo of these into your deck makes all the difference.
Use too many different types, and the enemy may run all over you.
However, there are many cards that only work best with certain types,
so it's not a bad strategy to use a mix either. BEEP!
Quest:
Lost Rappy
From: Romeo
Mission:
I was taking a walk in the forest with my pet rappy
Kate. Then she suddenly ran off and disappeared! Kate is my best friend!
Please find her for me!
Pre-battle line:
Kylria: It seems you are looking for research materials...
Post-mission message:
Alright!! Kate's back! Thanks so
much! But... she seems sad for
some reason... Oh, I know! I bet
she's just like me. She probably
gets lonely when her mom and dad
aren't around. I hate to see her
leave, but I'll go back to the
forest with Dad and we'll return
Kate to where she belongs.
Romeo
P.S. Are you sure this is really
Kate? She sounds... different...
Quest:
Nostalgic Spot
From: Memoru
Mission:
I wanna go to the Tower of Caelum for a bit. My sixth
sense is whispering, "Gotta go there!" So I'm going! Bye! No complaints!
Pre-battle line:
Viviana: Memoru...! Why are you always around!?
Low HP line:
Viviana: Darn it...! Your silence distracts me, Memoru!
Post-mission message:
What the?! Why the heck
was Vivi there?!
Ewww! What a way to ruin
a person's day! She was
as awful as always. I
can't stand her! Ugh, I
just want to forget all
about this now...
Memoru
