After cheering her up and promising to stay friends, Kazuma, a teenager, awakens; sitting across from his brother Ayumu on a train. As Ayumu gazes in awe out the passenger window, Kazuma looks as well, taken by the sight of a stream sparkling in the sun and its resemblance to the one in his dream.The boys get off in Yamabiko Town, catching what they believe to be a bus to Yorozuyo Inn, a lodge where they have arranged to live. Having boarded the wrong bus however, Kazuma and Ayumu are driven several miles out, leaving them no choice but to wait out their bus at the next stop. Making the best of the situation, the boys lounge around, spotting a small monkey across the road. As Ayumu searches for snacks to feed it, the mischievous animal steals his hat and runs off. Kazuma angrily pursues the critter, disappearing into the surrounding forest.
Chasing through a stream, which he slips into, and up a tree, which he jumps off of and falls from, Kazuma recovers the hat.

Noticeably cheery and familiar with the area, she guides him in the direction of the bus stop, reapproaching the stream from earlier. With speed and grace she hops across, bidding Kazuma to do to the same.
