Lost on an unfamiliar railway, a group seeks to escape a train filled with anomalies and mysteries.
One day, the members of the Hikari Club, including Guest, find themselves lost at a station they don't recognize. Waiting there is a train with aged, weathered carriages. The destination display reads: "Departing End, Bound for Beginning." Though wary, they step inside. However, before anyone notices, the train begins to move.
