Six-year-old HYDE is dying to meet his half-brother ASCINO, who left Quito City two weeks before he was born. He approaches a giant in the neighborhood, RONALD, a friend of Ascino. At first Ronald does not like the idea, but after being hurt by the boy's words, he agrees to help him to find his half-brother. Ascino's paternal family, Liogiezies is alleged to be staying on the floor of the Pacific Ocean next to Galapagos Island No.3. Hyde and Ronald begin their journey by offending coastguards and while playing a fatal game with the coastguards, an alien spaceship appears and the ocean swallows them. They find themselves at a planet of a giant called god MAFIA, who does not spare the lives of male human beings and ugly women. A squirrel called LAUDAH rescues them. The three are then transported to another world and narrowly escape dinosaurs, blizzard and scorpions. Meanwhile, at Marshioley Kargie City, Ascino is entrusted with a lifesaving mission where 'Time is nobody's friend.' Laudah together with the two boys are then transported to a planet of humandogs, very friendly creatures indeed. Then, the further they go the more they are exposed to death. Ascino beats time, but not according to professional standards. He snatches the three from a live volcano. Finally, when they reach home, Ronald and Hyde think that they had been away for three days. They are surprised to learn that they had been away for three long years.
