Through managing to reverse engineer and translate the ship language, the team learns that Kōkō comes from the planet Draco Zeta in the Draconian Galaxy (M102) having been sent on a mission by the Crimson Hand Empire of Vyrus who rules the Draconites to destroy the inhabitants of Earth and claim it as a tribute planet for Emperor Vyrus XIII. The salvage team uncovers a gold mine of information. Their name is Kōkō and they are a Draconite who has taken the forms of birds like eagles, condors, swans, swallows, owls, cranes and vultures. The 29-year-old leader of the expedition, Yoshiko Iwata, discovers a genderless alien who has lost all memories of their previous life from before the crash.
Fearing what sort of threat the alien could pose to life on Earth, a massive military blockade is ordered around the crash site and a survey and salvage team from the United Nations Interplanetary Taskforce for Earth Defense (U.N.I.T.E.D.) goes to investigate the crashed ship.
In the year 3000 - Friday the 13th of June, a giant crippled spacecraft the length of Manhattan Island (from Lower to Upper Manhattan) crash lands deep down under in the Simpson desert of Australia.
