Kuroi continues to hold Kiko in his arms, their warm embrace fills them with comfort and safety. Kuroi and Kiko then let go of one another, looking into their eyes so very deeply. Kuroi moves closer, his eyes continues to look deeper into Kiko's until their lips meet. Her lips felt soft and gentle to a touch, while his felt more tender. Kuroi takes off his black yukata, as Kiko follows with loosening up her kimono. They look at each other, their eyes getting lost in each other's bodies.
Kuroi then makes the first move and moves towards Kiko's crotch.
[Meanwhile at Tōzai Gakuen.]
Kodak sits in class talking with Ashiro, Fumiko, and Akari about whatever they find interesting. Fumiko tugs Kodak's uniform, immediately getting his attention.
"Hey, Kodak-Kun." Fumiko says, trying to cutely get his attention. "What's up Fumiko?" Kodak responds to her.
"(It's just like how she tried to get my attention back then in Seoul. She's still cute as ever, her eyes I could just get lost in.)" Kodak's mind continued to ponder as he become even more distracted by Fumiko's beauty.
"Kodak!"
He's suddenly brought out of the trance and hears Fumiko repeating his name while tugging violently at his uniform. "Kodak, Kodak, Kodak!!!"
"Huh! Sorry I was spacing off." He says, trying to hide the fact that he was staring into Fumiko's eyes like a romantic lover.
Fumiko giggles a little bit at Kodak's poor lies, but asks him the same question he didn't hear earlier, "Where do you wanna go on your birthday?" This question catches Kodak off guard, "Is it already October?"
Fumiko smirks and playfully hits his shoulder, "Yes, you dumbass." Kodak wraps his arm around her, giving her a light nudge on her head, "Not quite as dumb, since you're right here."
Fumiko starts laughing, causing the other students to look at the commotion Kodak was unintentionally making. The students start to whisper to each other, catching Ashiro's attention.
Two male students whisper towards one another, "He's definitely getting hours of action after school." The other student listens to his accusation of Kodak and Fumiko, snickering like an immature child from elementary school. "Yeah, I mean have you seen her rocking hot body!"
The two students then feel a tap on their shoulders, looking back to see who's behind them. "Huh, oh hey Ashiro-San. Lemme guess you're wondering about Kodak and that goth chick over there. I bet their having crazy fun all day."
Ashiro keeps his composure and grabs his classmate by the collar of his uniform, "Watch yourself you bastard." Ashiro's eyes radiate a blazing rage towards him.
The other student tries intervening with Ashiro's harsh behavior. "Hey let go of him you cocky bastard!" But his hand is caught by Akari, her hand closes tighter until the boy is on his knees from her monster-like grip strength. "(What the hell?)"
The boy tries to escape Akari's grip, A voice suddenly calls out to them. "If you're done with the pointless squabble. Then sit the hell down."
Ashiro looks over at the front of the classroom, seeing the teacher wearing an angry look towards his threatening towards the two students. Ashiro backs away and sits back with Kodak, embarrassed by easily losing his self control. He continues to wonder about his newfound volatile emotions, pondering on why he felt this unpredictable.
"(Why did I lose control of my emotions. Not even the dirtiest scumbags back in Seoul could shatter my emotional control of emotions.") Ashiro looks at Kodak and back at the teacher going into a drawn out speech she had given daily.
Ashiro's mind continued to think about his outburst, it felt suffocating and mind-numbing. The teacher continued to ramble on & on about some calculus. Once she finally stopped talking Ashiro raised his hand. The teacher looked over, still ticked off from his outburst. "Yes, Ashiro?" She said reluctantly, not wanting to know Ashiro's next move from his newfound unpredictable nature.
"Can I go to the bathroom?" Ashiro asked politely. The teacher looked at him a little surprised, but regardless of how the teacher felt she nodded towards him. Ashiro impatiently walks quickly out of the classroom and into the bathroom The moment he enters he's met by multiple kids secretly vaping and smoking in the boy's bathroom. They look at him coldly but Ashiro ignores them and walks to the sink and turns it on. briefly check for the water's temperature. Once it felt lukewarm Ashiro splashes his face a little bit and runs his hands through his hair, fluffing it and drying it with a small towel he took from his pocket. Ashiro looks at himself in the mirror, wondering what's happening to himself.
"(I never lose control... So why do I feel so angry and violent towards anyone and anything?!)"
Ashiro's hands tightly grip the counter of the sink, his hands dig into it deeply. "(WHY DO I FEEL SO ANGRY!)"
Suddenly his hands rip through completely and tear chunks through the sink's counter. He then falls to one knee, His body felt weak. This alerts the other students in the bathroom, one of them walks over, tapping his shoulder. "Hey, are you okay bro?" He tries asking Ashiro, but before he could say anything his head starts to feel light, causing him to fall on the back of his head. The students rush to pick him up, "What happened?!" One of the students asked. "I don't know, I asked him what happened, next thing I know he's passing out."
The small group of students stare at Ashiro for a little bit, eventually carrying Ashiro to the nurse's office.
Ashiro slowly opens his eyes, looking into the sky, it had a sun and moon rivaling each other. He looks to his right, finding himself in a vast land of grassy hills, rocky mountains, and even some mountains being volcanos.
Ashiro then stands up, dusting off his uniform, as he stands he hears the faint sound of water from a giant waterfall behind him.
"(What is this place?)" Ashiro thinks for a little bit on how he could get out of this domain of elements, suddenly he feels someone behind him. "(What the?!)" Ashiro jumps back and looks at the person In front of his very eyes.
The person was tall, almost 8 feet to be exact, his figure seemed human but his presence had a divine aura to it. Ashiro puts his hands up, ready to fight. The figure in front of him speaks, "Are you the reincarnation of Aiko?"
Ashiro then feels something tugging at his uniform shirt, it was a child that was very frail and sad. The boy's face was mangled, one eye popped out of its socket and his arm even worse. Bandages wrapped around the boy's lower torso with blood dripping from them.
Ashiro backed away in fear of the boy, "S-stay back!" The boy reached his hand out for Ashiro but suddenly stopped and began to cry. "I-I-I-I'm.. not a monster... right?"
Ashiro feels tears stream down his face, "(Why am I crying? It's almost like that boy triggered it.)"
The man from before walks up to him, his face was filled with nostalgia and sorrow from looks of it. He then puts his hand on Ashiro, "I see, you both are essentially the same person. Even your souls, I'm glad you turned out to be my son's reincarnation. Just... don't become self obsessed with your own power."
Ashiro stood there confused, "(Self obsessed, reincarnation, souls. This... doesn't make any sense.)"
The man standing before Ashiro looks a this overwhelmed and confused look, "Oh, that's right you don't know of revenant and the techniques that come with it. I would tell you but you're knowledge and understanding is too little to understand any of it at the moment. So I'll just say this... My name is Godai and I'm a divine being who controls certain elements and soon that power will be yours to use. With that I bid farewell to my successor."
Godai starts to walk away from Ashiro, his face looked content with his newly found successor. "I hope you use the power given to you in the future, Because one day you'll need to keep your emotions intact."
Godai then disappears, Ashiro stands there even more confused than before about the brief conversation he just had, "What the hell even is going on?!" He then feels Aiko tug on his clothing, asking the same question from before. "I'm not a monster right?" Ashiro stands there and kneels towards the kid.
"You are no monster, in fact you're the friendliest kid I know." The boy's expression lights up from his usual look and a smile spreads like a wildfire across his face, gleaming from ear to ear. Ashiro then starts to feel a deep sensation of peace wash over him. It felt warm and nostalgic, just like his mother's love in the past. What's even more interesting, is the fact Aiko had less wounds and blood leaking from his bandages. Ashiro then notices the grassy hills and vast mountains disappearing, even the massive waterfall that was immensely far away from Aiko and him.
He grabs the boy's hand and begins to run, but he feels pain from the hand holding the boy's hand and immediately lets go. Ashiro sees the ground cracking around Aiko, his eyes widened in fear, running over to the boy's rescue. But Godai suddenly appears and pins Ashiro, "You are not ready for that power yet." He says while Ashiro struggles from his grip. Godai then flips Ashiro over and places his thumbs on Ashiro's sternum and forehead. Ashiro tries moving but nothing happens, "What the hell are you-" His struggling is interrupted as he wakes up in the infirmary.
He looks around himself, surrounded by nurses and doctors struggling to keep him down from what seemed to be them trying to restrain himself. "(Was I struggling in the real world, or whatever world I was in?)"
Akari then enters the room and forces the doctors off Ashiro, screaming at them in the process. "Let me see him!" She rushes over to Ashiro, trying to see if he was okay.
The nurse and doctors block Akari way, but she shoves through them and clings to the railing of Ashiro's hospital bed. "I am not leaving his side!" She yells again with her hands gripping the railing even tighter.
One of the nurses walks up to Akari and grabs her hand very suddenly, "You need to leave. We don't know what this student will do."
Ashiro looks at the nurse's response to Akari, confusing him a little bit, "What did I do?" He asked weakly from his bed. The nurse looked at him, annoyed. "How could you forget what you did?! You lashed out at the students helping you to the infirmary. Hell, those boys are more damaged than you are."
Ashiro's eyes widened from the nurse's harsh response, looking down in shame. He then looks to his left and sees the students from the bathroom earlier.
"(Did I do that?! How... and... why did I do that?)" Ashiro continues to overthink about the current situation at hand, so much so that even Akari begins to notice Ashiro painful silence.
Akari then pulls her hand out of the nurse's grip and slaps her swiftly across the face, "Are you implying that Ashiro is the one at fault!? We don't know if those boys did something horrible to him beforehand and if you think i'm just gonna stand back while you insult him. You're just flat out braindead-"
The nurse's jaw clenches in anger as she raises her hand to slap Akari back, "YOU GODDAMNED BRAT!" Her hand flies through the air, while Akari puts her hands up to guard herself. The nurse's hand makes contact with something, but it wasn't Akari. She looks down a little and sees Ashiro tightly gripping her wrist, his eyes pierced into the nurse with a rageful gaze. The nurse feels his hand start to heat up and backs away quickly.
She looks at her hand and sees slight burn marks, but nothing too harmful. "(What the hell?! Is this kid some type of monster!?)"
The nurse then rushes out of the room, bumping into someone wearing an all black outfit with the hood covering his eyes. The nurse scoffs at the man and gets in his face. "HEY WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING DUMBASS!"
The man just glances at the nurse and walks away from her immature outburst. The nurse then grabs the man by his shoulders, he felt strong and seemed unpredictable just from his behavior alone. The nurse gets in his face and starts to run her mouth, cursing and causing public humiliation towards the man and his surroundings.
"(Will she ever shut up, I need to divert the attention on to her and find who ever eluded that menacing aura. I need to know how Godai of all people got a successor, he's the most difficult in terms of techniques with revenant.)" The man places his hand on the nurse and reveals his face. It had a clean shaved face with his jawline being nicely defined. His hair was long and grey, the length it had was down to his shoulder blades.
The nurse looks at his appearance and blushes slightly, "Well I didn't know you had such a beautiful face old man." The man's hand then tightens and pushes her back, His face went from the cold and serious to frightened, imitating a trauma induced look.
His imitation continued as he fell to the floor and covered his head with his arms. His mouth opened but stopped for a second and trembled with a false indication of fear. "H-h-help! S-someone...Please stop this violent young lady!!!" The nurse looked at the old man confused, "H-hey! I didn't do this.. I-I-I would never hurt one of my senior citizens!!!"
The people in the hallway looked at the nurse and the old man, clenching their fists. "HEY LEAVE THAT OLD MAN ALONE!" Students flooded the hallways with shouts of anger and pity from the old man.
They're eyes suddenly turn red and begin to attack the nurse. She screamed for help as students stomped, punched, kicked, and beat her to a pulp. Blood leaks down the halls as the security guard watches the cameras and picks up his phone, instantly dialing 110.
The police flood the hallways, trying to hold back the students. One of the police officers gets swarmed by multiple students, He attempts to pull his gun but the other officers try to stop them. The struggling officers then notice the old man fleeing the scene with the nurse's bloody and battered body.
"HEY WHERE ARE YOU GOING!?" One of the officers yells out to him, but the old man continues to run with the nurse's body until he's outside, where it starts to pour heavy rain on them continuously. He then picks up the girl with his right hand, holding her in the air with her fleeting vision barely making out the figure of the man. He then tenses up his right and her neck snaps violently and repeatedly. "Finally I killed this bitch, she got on my nerves for too damn long." The man then opens his mouth and bites down deeply into the woman's shoulder, tearing away her flesh and eating away at her lifeless body.
The cop runs around a corner and keeps running down a deep and dark alley, his mind rambling on and on about what he saw that old man carrying. "(I hope I'm not too late!!!)"
He then hears a loud snapping sound echo through the halls of the alley. The officer then darts around a corner and watches in horror as he sees the old man from before feasting on the nurse's lifeless body and tearing away at her flesh, before abruptly swallowing it. Blood drips down his chest and continues traveling down until the floors of this dark alley was painted red with the crimson look of blood. The officer's mind fills with fear and freezes up, like a deer in front of headlights.
"F-freeze!" The officer's hand shakes as he raises his gun. The old man scoffs at the fear in the officer's eyes, "You're so pathetic. Nothing like it was back in the heian era. I swear people were fearless and laughed in the face of even death itself."
The officer continues to shake but he then feels a presence behind him and turns around to see an old woman with red hair with grey accents fading into each. Her body seemed gravely injured and battered. "Honey, who is that woman?"
