The story then fast-forwards to 1988 (198X in the English prototype, for the sake of ambiguity), in the rural American town of [[Podunk|Mother's Day]]. Here, the tale focuses on a 12-year-old American boy named [[Ninten]]. His story begins when his home is attacked by a poltergeist, who possesses two [[Lamp|lamps]] and a [[Doll|doll]]. after exorcising the ghost, Ninten's father calls him, explaining that George, now revealed to be Ninten's great-grandfather, studied PSI. Ninten's father then tasks him with investigating a series of strange phenomena occurring across America, leaving Ninten to go out on his own.

After rescuing and befriending a 7-year-old girl named [[Pippi Lindgren|Pippi]] from the local cemetery, Ninten is sent to investigate the escaping and sudden hostility of the animals in the [[Podunk Zoo|local zoo]]. There, he discovers the phenomena are the work of [[Starmen|an invading alien race]]. Ninten is then warped to the world of [[Magicant (Mother)|Magicant]], where the land's ruler, Queen Mary, has recently started to experience horrible nightmares. When she meets Ninten, she asks him to find her song, the [[Eight Melodies]], and play them to her, as she has forgotten the song and desperately needs to remember it. After returning to the real world, Ninten visits an elementary school in Thanksgiving (Merrysville in the prototype) and meets an 11-year-old boy named [[Lloyd]] (Loid in the prototype), who is constantly bullied for being a weakling. Ninten befriends Lloyd, and joins Ninten on his adventure to find the Eight Melodies. The two then travel to the town of [[Snowman]] to deliver a lost hat to an 11-year-old girl with PSI powers, referred to as [[Ana]], who tells Ninten that she saw him in a dream, and joins the party in hopes of finding her missing mother. The group then continues their investigations in the town of [[Youngtown|Easter]], where all but two of the adults were abducted by a U.F.O. Having learned this, they decide to continue onward and further investigate these coinciding phenomena.

After finding five to six of the melodies (three of which Ninten found in Mother's Day, prior to his first visit to Magicant), Ninten, Ana, and Lloyd wind up in the city of [[Ellay|Valentine]], where they learn that strange, black clouds have appeared over Holy Loly Mountain. However, during the trio's invesigations, they are harrassed by [[B.B. Gang Member|members]] of the [[Bla Bla Gang|Black Blood Gang]], a powerful street gang who attacks anyone that provokes them. After overcoming these thugs, the trio performs karioke at the Live House. However, their performance is interrupted by the Black Blood Gang's [[Teddy|leader]], who is angered by the fact that the trio was beating up his lackies. The leader then challenges Ninen (the trio's leader) to a duel, only to quickly realize how powerful of an opponent Ninten is. Swearing defeat, the leader introduces himself as Teddy, and explains that his parents were killed by wild animals on Holy Loly Mountain. Seeking vengance, he joins Ninten's party, replacing Lloyd, who rests up at the live house. Teddy then instructs the group to climb Holy Loly mountain and avenge his parents.
