==Synopsis==
On the race tracks, the gasoline accompanies the engine sounds and creates a special smell in the atmosphere. When the cars race past, the sounds that it gives off rumble in the air and will always bring forth some kind of desire within the deepest part of a person's heart. Fast, a fastness that requires completely no thinking and only can concentrate on the high speed ahead. It is the limit that humanity thirsts to challenge.

The start of this story begins on the race track.

The leading character of the story, Ling, originally had a twin brother that is bound to him by destiny. These two with their extreme differences in their personality but still balancing each other, became each other's sole dependents in spirit and in life. The active Ling, speeds long on his motorcycle all day, regarding racing as his life-long career; the quiet Sheng, follows by the side of Ling and records the appearance of Ling with his paint brush when he is racing. Everything was supposed to be so perfect and balanced…

However, because of heavy family and emotional disputes, Ling loses the only "other him" that understands and forgives him. His dream of racing is no longer important. His empty and unbearable self does not deserve to speed down the sacred race course.

Until he meets Qi Luo. Qi Luo's forgiveness smoothes the emptiness in Ling. And love, replaces family relationship, becoming the biggest support that Ling's spirit needs. Therefore, his dream starts to gain power once again, racing toward an endless boundary…

The story's ending, Ling stands once again on the race tracks. When the starting flag starts flapping in the wind, the war-god's blood starts boiling with a sense that can't be restrained.

==Synopsis 1==
While working at a seaside inn with his high school buddies, Kouji Fujishiro ([[Yamada Takayuki]]) meets Kaoru Amane ([[Sawajiri Erika]]), a street musician. Kaoru is suffering from an incurable disease called XP ([[Wikipedia:Xeroderma pigmentosum|xeroderma pigmentosum]]), and can't be exposed to the sun. Under the sun, the two would never have met. Still, destiny brings the two together. Since the day he suddenly lost his job, Kouji has lost sight of his dreams. But when he meets Kaoru, who is making positive efforts to become a singer, Kouji regains his long-forgotten passion for music. --''TBS''

==Synopsis 2==
'''A girl who can only live at night and a high school student who loves to surf as the sun rises...<br>The two had nothing in common...'''<br>
Kaoru Amane, 18 years old, did not attend school but instead sang herself away every night after dark at a square in front of a train station with a guitar in her hands. She led a lifestyle opposite the norm, sleeping during the day and active at night. Kaoru was suffering from XP ([[Wikipedia:Xeroderma pigmentosum|xeroderma pigmentosum]]), an illness, which also might be described as the allergy to the sun, and was not allowed to be exposed to sunlight. The only motivation in her life was singing, which also was the only connection to the outside world.
One day, an incident drastically changes her life...

Kaoru returns home at 4:00 am, before sunrise. Outside her room window, she spots a high school student standing with a surf board in his hands. It becomes her routine to watch him and his friends come and go to the ocean every morning, before going to sleep.

Their destined encounter takes place during the few hours before the break of day, drawing together two individuals that would have never met in daylight. However, Kouji does not know about her illness. The two rapidly fall for one another and continues to meet in the city at night. Then one day, an incident leads Kouji to learn of Kaoru's illness. Kaoru gives up her first love telling herself that, "I shouldn't have allowed myself to dream of a happy life. I am not normal after all." She even gives up singing. Kouji seeing Kaoru at such a state encourages her by suggesting, "Let's meet only at night," and comes up with a brilliant present for her.

She had been leading a life carefully placing herself beyond the reach of harm, with no intent to pursue a dream. However, Kouji had shone a light on her heart making her want to sing once again.
However, her illness which has quietly progressed, has started to pressure her nerve system, keeping her from playing the guitar at her will... --''Shochiku''

==Synopsis 3==
Tout en travaillant dans une auberge de bord de la mer avec ses copains de lycée, Kouji Fujishiro (Yamada Takayuki) rencontre Kaoru Amane (Sawajiri Erika), une musicienne de rue. Kaoru souffre d'une maladie incurable appelée le XP (xeroderma pigmentosum ), et ne peut pas être exposé au soleil. Sous le soleil, les deux ne se seraient jamais rencontrés. Le destin les réunit toujours tous les deux. Depuis le jour où il a soudainement perdu son travail, Kouji a perdu de vue ses rêves. Mais quand il rencontre Kaoru, qui fait des efforts positifs pour devenir chanteuse, Kouji retrouve sa passion longtemps oubliée pour la musique.
