Kanzaki sits down and buries his face in his hands. What's wrong with me... He stands up and brushes the dirt off his shoes. Kanzaki leaves the room and then... A figure that was lurking in the shadows quietly closes the door. "Project Goodnight Japan starts now... Targets have arrived... All forms of ghost completed. Tell me when to send them across the country... The ritual to Kagume's awakening will succeed. Yurei, please let them win. Kagume has been waiting," the figure says, holding a phone close to it's ear. The other person on the line mumbles something and hangs up... "We'll meet again, Kanzakiii~..." the figure says, chuckling. The door creaks open, Kanzaki quickly turns around. He switches the flashlight on... He looks inside the room. There was no one there... It's probably the wind. Kanzaki closes the door... It opens fully. Kanzaki's narrows his eyes. "This whole laboratory is cursed...!" he says, looking around. Kanzaki decides to just roll with it and goes to the other room. This one... There wasn't anything in it... Kanzaki leaves and heads to the third one... It had nothing too. He steps in the room, a shiver running down his spine the moment his feet touches the ground. The door closed behind him... He got pushed, falling on the ground. Kanzaki stands up and looks around again... No one was here at all. My eyes are deceiving me... Kanzaki switched his flashlight back on... He sees two of them... Sayaka and Nabika were standing there. "You won't escape..." Sayaka says. "Without our permission..." Nabika finishes. Kanzaki steps back, scared. Sayaka steps closer after Nabika does. "Why..." Sayaka asks. "Are you not a ghost yet?" Nabika interferes. Kanzaki looks at her, his hands trembling for some reason. Nabika smirks and turns to Sayaka "Let's do this..." Nabika says, cracking her fingers. "Astaroth-sama wants to turn you into a ghost..." she mumbles. "Black Magic..." Sayaka says, grinning. "Technique two... Black Fog..." Nabika finishes, fog appearing everywhere in the room. It was getting thicker... Kanzaki tries to find the door, but bumps into Nabika. He hears someone chuckling. Sayaka lifts him up and smirks. "Die..." Sayaka says, her red eyes glowing under her hair. "Onegaishimasu..." Nabika finishes. Nabika pauses before she was gonna slap Kanzaki. "Why... Why do you ruin humanity...? You already live in the forest... So why...? You never had to ruin it... You just follow orders without thinking about others... You two were humans too before... So why do you hurt someone like you...?" Kanzaki says, clenching his fists. Nabika and Sayaka's eyes widen. "Because... Humans made us suffer..." Sayaka answers. 27Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWtHk2XSHH
~~~ Sayaka and Nabika before... They were sisters who loved cooking and usually helped anyone in need. On their birthday everything went wrong... Their father and mother divorced, leaving them alone. They had to live somewhere else... But where? It's not like anyone would just take them in. Their bodies started to change, no one recognized them. They looked like monsters. The people started throwing rocks at them while they were at their lowest. After days of bleeding and getting injured Sayaka was on the verge of death. Nabika couldn't do anything, since she was in a bad state as well. Everyone started hating them more, even trying to kill them. That was so until a woman took them in. Erina Shun, a name Sayaka and Nabika would never forget. Erina healed their wounds and fed them both. Erina told them about a potion she invented. It lets you live for centuries, your looks won't change either. But if you refused to do what Erina orders, you will die. Sayaka and Nabika took it, because Erina told them to. Satoshi talked with the girls, asking Sayaka to go in one of the tanks... Nabika didn't want to leave Sayaka, so she went in too. The pain after they got in was unbearable, changing them into monsters... Sayaka and Nabika obeyed Erina and Satoshi, scared that they would ever have to experience it again... Kanzaki hesitates but then... "Why don't you give us another chance? I'll make it up to you, I promise," he says, taking a step closer. Sayaka looks at Nabika. "Will you hurt us?" Sayaka asks, trembling. Kanzaki shakes his head. "I'm not cruel," he answers. Nabika reaches her hand out to him. "I'm Nabika. This is my little sister Sayaka," she says, pointing at Sayaka. Kanzaki shakes her hand firmly. "Kanzaki," he says. The fog disappeared. "We will help you, as long as you don't hurt us," Sayaka says, opening the door. Kanzaki nods and leaves the room. He looks at the room that was locked. "Can you open it?" he asks, looking at Sayaka. She shrugs but then points at Nabika. "She can," Sayaka answers. Nabika takes a look at the door. She takes a step to the right. "Black magic... Technique 1... Explosive Void," Nabika says as void appears, even though it was tiny. Nabika points at the wall with her index finger. The void slowly heads there, exploding once it came in contact with the wall. There was a hole in the wall... Kanzaki grins. "You're telling me to not hurt you while you can kill me with that?" he asks. Sayaka and Nabika stare at each other but then they start laughing. "I'll go," Nabika says before she enters the room. She unlocks the door and opens it. Sa yaka and Nabika freeze as a beeping sound was heard. "Sorry..." Sayaka says. "We're... Dying... Please save... Kawasaki," Nabika says before they slowly vanish into thin air... They're gone.27Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbNQju3u4l

Kanzaki stares at the place where Nabika was standing... What happened... Why did they... Who killed them...? They just... No way... They're controlled? How can I thank them now...? Kanzaki's mind races He enters the room... Papers were everywhere on the ground and in closets. He leaves the room, too lazy to look through every paper. He heads back to the first floor. Kanzaki looks around, trying to find anything to open the door with. He finds a key in a drawer. He opens the door... A boy was hung, his hair covering his face. There was a cloning tank behind the boy, the room had two closets next to the tank. It's him... Sora Shun. Kanzaki studies the boy and then comes closer. He looks at the tie as he struggles to free Sora. Kanzaki hears footsteps... He quickly opens the closet and hides in it. Someone enters the room... No, there were multiple people. "Then... Let's start... Oh yeah... The plant is still upstairs. I'll get it later..." a feminine voice said. "Ah... I think we have a special guest..." a masculine voice answered. Kanzaki's breath hitches when footsteps come closer... Footsteps weren't heard now... The door creaks open... A man with brown hair and black eyes smiles at him. The man opens his mouth, just to reveal his jagged teeth. "It's great to see you but... Farewell," he says, getting closer to Kanzaki... Right on time, Kanzaki moves to the side. The man looks at him. "Erina... You should keep an eye on him while I make the Yurei King..." A woman with white hair and black eyes studies him. She takes her glasses off, cleaning them. She studies Kanzaki for a moment and then nods in acknowledgement. Erina gestures Kanzaki to get out of the closet. He gulps... What kind of situation did I get in... He looks at Sora. Still gotta save him yet... No one can help, Akuma was outside so that means... She saw the parents?! Kanzaki slowly crawls out of the closet and stands up. He looks right into Erina's black eyes. Black ties come out of her hands and they surround Kanzaki's wrists. "Leave Sora alone," he says, having a determined look in his eyes. Erina chuckles and then her eyes started shrinking, until two glowing yellow eyes appeared instead of the black ones... "Do you not know what kind of situation it is... A single step might be... The end of you... It was all part of my plan... This whole time... I'll destroy the country after I'm done with you..." she says, her voice echoing through Kanzaki's mind. "I'm not gonna let you destroy it..." Kanzaki says, glaring at her. "Oh, please... Just die..." Erina says, rolling her eyes. The man scowls at Kanzaki. "Stop wasting our time..." he says, growling. Kanzaki looks at Sora and thinks for a moment. He hesitates but then... He headbutts Erina to the man's direction, causing them to fall. He tries to cut the tie using a shard of glass... Erina stands up. Sora falls on the ground, Kanzaki grabs Sora's hand. He lets Sora lean against a wall and turns back to Erina and the man. "Satoshi... He's a genius, isn't he... Just like Gin... I didn't think Banji would die like that... Well, this year is a new one... A new risen one... And... A new chance for victory..." Erina says, grinning. Satoshi stands in front of the door. Kanzaki clenches his fist. "It's your son... You failure..." he mumbles, his face darkening. "How dare you... Make your own son... A pawn to destroy... The country you lived in!!!" he yells, his voice filled with a hint of anger and sadness. Satoshi and Erina look at each other, confusion in their eyes. "He isn't our son, he's a tool," Satoshi answers, shrugging. Sora stirrs for a second. Kanzaki grabs his arm and drags him towards the door. He furiously kicks Satoshi and opens the door, wanting to leave the laboratory... Kanzaki and Sora exit the laboratory, even though Erina's footsteps were heard behind them. Sora blinks multiple times. He looks at Kanzaki and tilts his head. "Who... Are you?" Sora asks, his voice hoarse. Kanzaki's eyes light up and he smiles. "You're still alive!" Kanzaki says, pulling him into an unexpected hug. Sora gasps, but then realizes. "You saved me... Didn't you...?" he asks, nearly tearing up. Kanzaki nods, pulling away from the hug. "In exchange... I want to do something for you... Anything!" Sora says, not hesitant. Kanzaki thinks for a bit. "Help me bring the risen one back to its grave..." he says, before looking at the trees. Sora freezes. "That's your goal?" he asks. "Yeah, I want to stop the curse," Kanzaki answers. Sora hesitates. "It's dangerous... But... I trust you!" he says. Erina's footsteps were coming closer. "Run!" Kanzaki shouts, squinting his eyes. Sora doesn't look behind him and runs away. After a while, he sees Kanzaki walking to him. Sora frowns. "Are you okay?" he asks, leaning closer. Kanzaki takes a deep breath. "Yeah, I'm alright," he answers before they follow the path. "Where are we going?" Sora asks as he notices how cramped the forest is now. "Just looking for anything..." Kanzaki answers, but then he stops... His legs won't move, as if something grabbed it... He looks down, but gets pulled in a hole. Sora looks in shock. "KANZAKI!!!!" he yells, trying to grab him but he already went in. Sora decides to also get in... He finds himself in a rather... strange place. Everything here was dark... The torches placed next to walls lit the room a bit, Sora looks around. The ground felt weird... This was water. "Kanzaki! Are you here?" he asks, his voice echoing through the room. He takes one of the torches and realized. "This place is... The Yurei's ho-..." before he can finish his sentence, a cold hand tapped on his shoulder. When Sora finally can see the person, he clenches his fists. The Yurei stood there, her face revealed. She was mad, her hair was swaying every once and then. She smirks, her red eyes glowing. "I found you... Let me kill you, please... I'll get rid of you... Just like how I'll get rid of Japan..." she says, laughing. 27Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAL9vHOWqk

Kanzaki falls on the ground. He mumbles something as he tries to stand up. "You really thought..." a deep voice said. Four glowing yellow eyes stared at him from the distance... "Oh... That's... Cool," Kanzaki mumbles. A person started laughing, its voice loud. It was a woman... To be clear, another one of those monsters. I have no other choice... I don't know if there is a way to escape. Right now, my biggest concern is my life. It's either they will kill me, or I find out a way to escape this weird place. The lights go on. Kanzaki sees them again... Erina and Satoshi. Satoshi's smirk widens as he sees Kanzaki. "You're never leaving this place since it's where your life ends..." he says, his hair growing every passing second. "You shouldn't have interferred... We would've spared you if you didn't..." Erina says as she walks to Kanzaki. "Black magic... Technique 3... Reality Void..." she says as a dark hole appears, slowly taking Kanzaki in. "Problem solved... Let's get the tool now," Erina says.27Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuC97U1mNL
Kanzaki finds himself in Kawasaki... Everything looked peaceful, not like the current one... It feels... Strange, as if it was his imagination. The sky had a soft blue color and the buildings were all made recently... Kanzaki then started seeing people. They were all smiling. Akira stood next to him. "It's so peaceful, don't you think so?" she says, smiling widely. People passed by and greeted each other. Why did it not feel safe? What was wrong here? Akira... Peaceful Kawasaki... Active... What's wrong with it? Why does this feel like I'm getting deceived? Kanzaki smiles back at Akira, a bit uneasy. "Yep. Definitely is," he answers. Akira looks at Kanzaki's bracelet. "You'll wear that thing forever?" she asks. "Of course. You gave me it, I'll protect it with my heart," Kanzaki answers, rolling his eyes. Akira blushes. Out of nowhere, Kanzaki feels a presence. Behind him. It was dangerously close. When Kanzaki turns around, he sees Akira... But she was different. Her hair was tangled and short. Her mouth was open and it revealed jagged teeth. "I hate you, Kanzaki. I dislike people like you... Please die. Don't come back..." she whispered. Akira bit off Kanzaki's head. The world spun around. What was happening? Why did Akira just... Kill him? Kanzaki's body felt weak and limp. He looks up, seeing cherry blossom trees. The scent was nice... He slowly went through the soft pink leaves. Refreshing. As if he had entered a new world... Suddenly, people look at him with empathy in their eyes, some of them with disgust in their expression. "I feel bad... He was left out... By everyone...," a few whispered. "He's cursed... Don't get near him," others said, scared. Kanzaki teleports into a dark room. There was nowhere to go... Where am I? How did I get here? Why am I here? How do I get out of here? Is this the endless loop of hell? Why is unfortune always coming to me..? Why do I have to suffer? Why is it just me? A girl with long white hair, bow ties and red eyes approaches him. "Okiro... Wake up..." she mumbled, half-asleep. Kanzaki stirrs as she taps on his shoulder. "Who are you...?" he asks, his voice hoarse. Her expression was... Emotionless. Close to unhuman. "Kagume. That's my name. I... Will rule this world. Not just me. You will help me," she explains, smiling for a split second. Kanzaki sighs. "I don't know you, neither do I have an idea of what you are talking about. Please return me to the real world. I have unfinished business," he says, not agreeing with her. She smirks. "You don't have a choice... This will end soon... My successors that should have destroyed Japan will fail... You're the next successor. You will destroy Japan with me... And then... We will destroy the world," she says, an earth globe in her hands. A dark figure appears behind her. It had a huge mouth, drooling with blood. Slowly, it entered Kanzaki's chest. "Soon, your life will change. You will change. You're gonna be a monster, just like me. All we do is destroy the world... Work with me, Kanzaki," she informs, reaching her hand out. Kanzaki felt rage boiling inside of his heart. "I'm never gonna work for you. NEVER!" he yells, slapping her. Kagume touches her chapped lips. She smiles as blood trickles down like a tear. "I really like you. Someday, you'll be mine. Everyone has forgotten me... I was left to rot. But now... I know what there's left to do. I have enough blood on my hands to fill more than seven seas. All that's missing is... seven continents," she whispers before disappearing. Kanzaki wakes up, his breath ragged. Sora trembles as the Yurei walks to him. "Go away!" he yells. She stops and tilts her head. "Humans like you... Afraid? You have no meaning in life anyways," she says, grinning. "I promised... To help him... So what are you... Talking about, you monster?!" he yells, giving her a death stare. The Yurei smiles before Erina and Satoshi appeared. "Finally, I got rid of that nuisance," Erina says, rolling her eyes. Satoshi smirks as he sees Sora. "Now come... Or I'll make you..." he mumbles. "You even dared to go with that boy... Too bad... He's dead after all," she says, a sadistic smile on her face. Sora gulps as Satoshi stands in front of him. "Just come along... It wont hurt much, Sora..." he informs, smiling at him. Sora shakes his head. "I'm not going! I'm staying here until Kanzaki comes!" he yells, arguing. Satoshi frowns. "You've changed... Not even listening to me..." he says, veins popping out of his neck. Sora takes a deep breath. "I'll show you what you did to me..." Sora says before he turns into a devil... He looked exactly like Astaroth. "Do you see it now, father? This is what I am now, something I never wanted to be. I'm human, what do you not understand?" he asks, his voice deep and cold. Kanzaki wakes up... This was the same place where he fell into. He looks around after he stood up. He looks at his hand, which was filled with something slimy... It was dark, but then... An eye appeared out of it. Kanzaki stares in confusion and then looks at it. The eye had an crimson red color. It looked like Reina's eye... "Can you hear me?" a voice asks. It came from the eye. "Yeah, I do," Kanzaki answers. "Very well then, walk to your left and open the door. You will find yourself in a mansion. If you head to room 4 you will find the people there. Come back to the entrance of Kawasaki after you killed them," it says before vanishing. He walks to the left and suddenly bumps into something... It was the door. He opens it and finds himself in a mansion, just like Reina had told him. He searches for room four... It wasn't here at all... He looks again and notices that room four was on the other side, next to room seventeen. He opens it, just to find Satoshi, Erina, the Yurei and... A devil.27Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOQ3jMrJkb
