Able to see the memories of anything he touches, Special Agent Makoto Midorikawa is asked to help investigate the scene where a mysterious gas explosion occurred.

Also a Sensititve, agent of the resistance Jack Norman uses his extrasensory "flash forward" ability to pursue former XM researcher Sarah Coppola.

Sarah and Makoto head to the secret Hulong lab, deep in the woods of Kyoto, but along the way, they are confronted by Liu's security forces and Jack.

Overwhelmed by the incoming security force, Sarah gives herself up to spare Makoto's life, but she is double-crossed by Liu soon after.

After securing fake passports from professional forger Zion, Makoto and Jack Norman board a flight to Switzerland to rescue Sarah from Hulong.

As Hulong scientists test the effects of dark XM on Sarah's body, her heightened ability enables her to speak to Makoto through the portal network.
