[edit] Plot

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

After Jack has defeated a "Robo-Slug", he takes off his clothes and jumps into a pond. From the pond he sees a rabbit stealing his clothes and sword. Jack, naked, runs after the rabbit and falls through a hole into a strange city.

To cover himself, he steals the clothes from a man, that turns out to be a cat thief. The mob of cat owners pursue Jack, on the belief that he is the chief. He then disguises with some woman's clothes, that turn out to be from a theater play. Jack is forced to act in the play.

He then follows the rabbit through the city's underground system, and finaly catches it. It turns out to be a girl with a rabbit-shaped bag. She had stolen Jack's belongings out of necessity, and said that his clothes and sword were almost as valuable as a pair of "Robo-Slug"s fangs. Happily, Jack hunts a "Robo-Slug" for her.

Spoilers end here.

[edit] Trivia
