On the shores of Golden Island, a small raft starts to drift over. Aboard it is a tall man, obviously too tall for the raft as his feet are drifting into the water and his arms are submerged to his elbow. Noticing this he quickly pulls them out of the water as though afraid of it. "That was too close," he said, oddly smiling despite the fact that he could fall off the raft at any moment. He attempts to steer the raft away from the island, but quickly gives up as he washes up on the island. "Oh well. Can't get away in any case. And who knows? Maybe I'll find someone who can help with my raft here," he said calmly as he examined the raft, particularly a small hole near the center. "Hey look at that! It doesn't look any worse. Doesn't look better, but doesn't look worse," he said happily as he tapped the hole with his finger as it turned to stone. Suddenly, several cracks spread out from the hole and stop a few inches away. "This is why I don't even TRY to fix this thing. When I touch it, something bad always happens to it," he says sadly. Suddenly he heard a loud crack behind him and turns around to face the source of the sound. "Who's there? If your a Marine, come out and fight Ken Izumi!" Ken screamed before he realized he was yelling at a weasel. But there was something strange about the weasel. It was at least 10 times the size of a normal weasel and it's fur was golden colored. It quickly ran away into the forest behind it were Ken could see at least two other weasels even bigger then the other one. "Well Ken, you have to two options. Go out to sea, let the hole get bigger and drown before making it to the New World. Or go into the forest, face off with giant golden weasels and maybe other dangerous things and hopefully find someone who can stop this hole from getting bigger." He thought it over briefly before sighing, strapping his raft to his back with rope and heading into the forest.
