The moon had almost just come into view as you walk down the sidewalks of Yokohama, Japan, back from your new job. The streets are slowly emptying itself as people on bicycles and in cars make their way home. As you continue your pleasurable walk home in the quiet evening of autumn, a man is seen chasing after a racoon with a notebook in its mouth. The racoon accidentally drops the notebook at your feet and you reach to pick it up...

The man picks up the racoon and hugs it worriedly before letting it crawl on his shoulders. You quietly tap his back to let him know that he had dropped his notebook that was filled with ideas for his latest story.
