Open your eyes
Terrorist: Well now, for all the ladies and gentlemen who receive this message, we'd like to make one thing very clear. This airship has been filled with an extremely lethal bacteriological weapon. That's right- We're saying we've prepared a wonderful present for any season to give to any fellows who try to interfere with us. We're sure you can understand that much. But... don't try and puzzle us out! Just watch! The noble intentions we've decided on for this world rotted by everyone's greed, and the actions and reasoning by which we arrived at them, there's no need to understand any of it! Don't you think it's more exciting this way? Just thinking of some so-and-so trying to understand our way of thinking makes us want to puke. That's why you should just watch. Just feel our good will. That's the easy path you're used to. You should know by now... After all, in this world that you've been struggling to keep bound with time and material goods, nothing ever comes of thinking too much. That's why there's all this inutile breeding in this world. Don't you think so-?

Briefing
''Just as in the anonymous statement, an unidentified airship has appeared over the Axel Bay coastal industrial region. We have examined the statement's authenticity and determine that a bio-chemical weapon is present. Make it land on water in order to minimize damage. Destroy any buildings that would be an obstacle in the airship's path!''

Debriefing
''You got the airship to land safely on the water. We are presently investigating the series of events.''
