Leaving his uncle's small apartment in the bad part of town in Tokyo, Keiichi mutters to himself as he recalls the circumstances that lead to his uncle living in the 'rough' part of town. Several years ago, his uncle was a bachelor (well, he's still one today) and had met a wonderful woman. Everyone said that this was the person to finally calm him down and to settle into a stable lifestyle, but she died of cancer several years later. She wasn't a rich person and the neighborhood that she lived in was one of the worst in Tokyo. But Keiichi's uncle had grown very close to her in the two years that they knew each other. He just didn't feel like moving away from the neighborhood that she loved, so he rented an apartment and stayed. The family always regarded this action as strange because he was a "higher citizen." The kind that was important to their line of work and the kind that drove nice fancy cars.
For years, Keiichi's parents and relatives had tried to convince him to move away from the crime filled area but he refused to. Keiichi never really understood why he wanted to stay until he met Belldandy five years ago. If Belldandy left him, he'd try to stay as near to her as possible too. . .
Deep in thought about his uncle and about Belldandy, Keiichi started to stray from the main streets and into the winding mazes of alleys. After about an hour, Keiichi realized that he was hopelessly lost in the eternal passages of the dark alleys.
"Where the hell am I?!"
"That's exactly where you are. . . you're in hell. . ." said a deep voice behind him. Turning around quickly, Keiichi sees a tall man in a leather jacket with a pip in his hand. Pointing the pipe at Keiichi, the man motions him to put his hands above his head. Keiichi carefully puts his hands above his head, still holding onto the dozen roses for Belldandy.
"What do you want?" Keiichi asks as confidently as he can.
"I want your money," the man replies bluntly.
Keiichi quickly decides that losing his money is better than losing his life. ". . . fine. . . my wallet is in my back pocket in my jeans."
"Turn around, face the wall," the man orders. After turning around and facing the wall, Keiichi feels the man's large hand searching through the back of Keiichi's blue jeans. Grabbing his wallet and pulling out the cash, the man turns to him with a grateful face.
"Thanks, this is gonna pay for a lotta meals for my kids. . ." the man says as he pushes Keiichi into the pavement and runs away.
Slowly getting up off of the pavement, Keiichi picks up his empty wallet. Well, almost empty. . . the man had been nice enough to leave him enough money for a telephone call. . . which was useful because the man had taken his cell phone as well.
Walking out of dark alleyway, Keiichi stumbles back into one of the larger streets, where it was less likely for him to be robbed. . . again.
"This sucks!! I had my pay in that wallet!!" Keiichi screams in frustration, attracting the attention of several tough looking men. They wore leather jackets, black make-up and they . . . carried guns.
"Hey kid, what's this about your pay?" one of the men asked as the three of them strolled over.
"Hand over what money ya got!" said the shorter man holding the gun and pointing it at Keiichi's face.
"Damn, this can't be happening again!! Shit!!"
"What the f#$@?! You've got less than the change dropped on the street!! Teach this shit head a lesson fer wastin our time!!"
At this point, Keiichi has dropped his dozen roses and tries to run for freedom, but one of the men grabs him and effortlessly throws him into the side of a building. The three of them begin to punch, kick, and beat Keiichi who tries to defend himself, only to prompt more attacks. After being beaten for about 15 minutes, Keiichi, has cracked ribs and a broken arm. His knees are stiff and possibly disjointed. Luckily, they didn't use the gun, otherwise Keiichi might not be alive to be moaning about his pain.
Elsewhere, in the Temple Complex in Chiba, Belldandy feels a great spike of pain and fear penetrate her heart. She goes from being calm and composed to being afraid and anxious.
"KEIICHI!!!" she screams in an ear shattering voice.
Urd and Skuld, hearing the scream run to her only to find that she's feinted. Taking their dear sister to her room, they place her on her futon.
"What the heck was that about Skuld?"
"I don't know, weren't you listening?"
"I was drunk!! What about you?"
"I was working on Banpei."
"Well, we can assume that something has happened to Keiichi. Belldandy's always been connected to Keiichi somehow. I think that we'd better call and check up on him."
Picking up the phone, Urd quickly dials Keiichi's cell phone as Skuld tends to Belldandy. There is no answer and after 20 rings, Urd hangs up.
"No answer," she says to Skuld.
"Well, why don't you use divine magic to sense his location?"
"Hey! Great thinking kiddo!!"
"I'm not a kid!!"
Casting a spell to sense Keiichi's location was no bit task. But the problem was that Keiichi, who was extremely weak from his beating, was not generating enough energy to be located. Actually, Keiichi's condition has gotten worse because he is now dehydrated and has feinted in the street.
"I can't find him!" Urd moans in a frustrated voice.
"I know!!" Skuld brightens and runs out of room to retrieve a radar-looking device.
"Back when I really really hated Keiichi, I planted a tracking bug on his BMW to make sure that he didn't take Older Sister somewhere perverted! I'll just check the location of his bike. . ." After fiddling with several switches, Skuld looks up excitedly. "He's near the Chiba Metro Station, the large one!"
Urd leaps into the tv and Skuld disappears into a bucket of water as they head towards the main Metro Station. (for those of you who don't know, Goddesses have an object that they can travel through; Skuld's is water, Urd's is television screens, and Belldandy's is mirrors.)
Once arriving at the Metro Station, they find the BMW parked in the parking lot, but there is no Keiichi.
"Where the hell is he? We have to get back to Belldandy pretty soon," Skuld says as she frantically searches.
"I know. Belldandy's not well, she'll be in deep depression when she wakes."
"How do you know?"
"Well, she and Keiichi have been linked ever since they fell in love with each other. It's kind of like when one twin falls down and the other twin feels the same pain."
Looking inside the motorcycle's sidecar, Urd and Skuld see a white plastic bag with some motorcycle parts and components in it. On the front of the bag, there is a bright smiling face on a motorcycle logo. "Whirlwind Motorcycle Shop" is the text below it.
"Chihiro!!" Urd and Skuld both simultaneously shout.
