We'll meet again... as long as you

continue on your journey.

Get back here, boy!

No way!

You're one heck of a

nuisance, traveler.

Don't worry.

You're being released.

Huh?

Last night, the dragon child

was kidnapped.

You couldn't have done it from jail.

Can you stand?

Yes.

But don't relax yet.

You could be a co-conspirator.

You're not leaving town.

But I've got to find five gems.

And the Goddess of Fortune.

We have a suspect.

I can help.

You can?

Yes. Tell me where the suspect is.

Wataru, first you go missing.

Now this?

You know what's below that church?

It's the "Cave of No Return."

Once you're in there,

there's no coming back.

There it is!

That's their hideout...

an abandoned chapel.

What?

Go to the abandoned chapel, Wataru.

Uh-oh, they call this the "Cave of

No Return" you know.

I smell water.

Water?

Shush. They'll hear us.

Shh.

Suddenly, I'm thirsty.

I thought you were scared,

Kee Keema.

But the water smells delicious!

Yes! An underground lake!

Here we go!

I haven't drunk for a while.

Water is life for a Water Tribesman.

Can't help myself.

No, you can't!

- Let me go!

- Kee Keema!

Let's hurry and stuff this beast.

His fiery breath is dangerous.

Who's there?

What do you want?

You'll be sorry.

I knew it was you guys.

Now hand over the dragon child!

Dragon?

What dragon?

Liars!

You said he was just going

to be someone's pet.

You betraying us?

You promised you'd take me

to my father.

Let her go!

No!

That was quite a scare.

It's gone! My sword is gone!

I have to find it!

Wataru!

Wait! Don't go back in!

Wataru!

Wataru!

Way to go, Wataru!

You still alive?

Wataru!

You all right, Wataru?

I think so.

I have that girl's voice

to thank for this.

Even our Highlander ran off

when that beast appeared.

Weren't you scared?

I was! I thought I'd be

eaten for sure!

I like you, traveler.

Torone, the box.

Yes.

What is it?

A Highlander's band. Only true

protectors of justice can wear it.

Protector of justice?

Wear this and it might help you

find the gems you seek.

But now you have to carry out

the duties of a Highlander as well.

I'm a Highlander?

No matter how strong your foe,

no matter what losses you suffer.

Can you handle it?

I'll do my best.

I won't disappoint you, Kattsu.

Then swear on your bracelet.

How?

Put it on your left arm.

It's a little big.

Now clink your bracelet

against mine twice.

Congratulations.

You're now a Highlander.

Okay!

Come up here!

Kattsu told you to "take care of

the new Highlander," remember?

Yeah and look, this guy

has tagged along, too.

But...

Come on.

Okay.

I'm Wataru. You are?

Meena.

That's a fire-breathing

baby dragon, Jozo.
