Short Prologue/Transition to Chapter 1
"See that, Lumi?"
"Yes. What is it?"
"It's a planet. Planet Earth."
"What's a planet?"
"A big, big, place that has lots of cool stuff on it."
"Why is this one so colorful?"
"No one really knows, but it sure is beautiful."
"Beautiful like me?"
"Yes, Lumi. You are beautiful."
"...Where is everyone else?"
"On Earth, Lumi. That's their home."
"Why don't I live there?"
"You were born in space. Space is your home."
"...Will I ever get to live on Earth?"
"Someday, Lumi. Someday..."
"Sir, I want you to come take a look at this. This could mean the scientific advancement of the century! Maybe even in all of history and mankind!"
"I'll be right there! Stay here, Lumi. I'm gonna be with Mr. Nakashima and the crew, okay?"
"Okay..."
"What's wrong?"
"..I don't like being alone."
"You won't be alone. You never will."
"...Are you sure, Daddy?"
"Of course I am, sweetheart. Is your father ever wrong?"
"N-No, Never!"
"See? You can trust me. You always can."
"Okay..."
"Okay?"
"...I love you, Daddy."
"I love you too sweetheart."
"Mr. Rhodes! We need you to see this."
"Hold your horses! Okay, Daddy's gonna go now. Mr. Nakashima needs me. Be safe, Lumi. Promise?"
"Promise!"
