Where... am I?

Where in the world is this place?

What was all that?

Just a dream...

Well, if it isn't Tetsu.

Mr. Okita...

What on earth are you doing up so late?

What about you, Mr. Okita? What are YOU doing?

Oh, I just couldn't fall asleep.

You seem rather down, Tetsu.

Well, I just had a really scary dream.

It was really scary, and when I woke up, I heard something outside...

I see.

As for me, there's something that's been bothering me...

We have a message for Kondo!

He is to present himself at once

to explain the outrage committed against the Mimawarigumi!

And you are saying it was Soji Okita who cut down his companions?

We have witnesses as well. There is no mistake.

This is a serious defection.

With all due respect,

Soji was in my room until late last night.

Your man is an imposter assuming Soji's name.

Be that as it may,

if someone is assuming the name of the First Unit Captain,

we cannot let it lie.

We will find the culprit without delay and hand him over to you.

Will that be satisfactory?

Very well, then.

Regarding the arrangements we had discussed...

Regarding the arrangements we had discussed...

We are in the process of preparing the weaponry right now.

In order to unleash fire upon the capital as planned and burn down the imperial palace,

we still do not have enough grenades.

Since ancient times, fire comes first when attacking castles.

Taking advantage of that confusion, we will seize the Emperor

and strike down Katamori Matsudaira while he is in a panic.

I will not allow those Mibu ronin to interfere!

The long-awaited desire of the Choshu will be granted soon.

Indeed.

Once we have the Emperor in our hands, we will be in the right.

You...

Where did you get in from?

What'll I do...

Well, I wonder why?

Maybe it's so that I can kill people.

I heard some Mimawarigumi members were killed near this area.

Are you serious?

Word is the culprit's Captain Okita of the Shinsengumi!

This is bad.

Oh? That girl...

You, there! Wait!

It IS you!

Let's see... Miss Hotaru, right?

Uh, yes.

But we saw each other just yesterday.

Yesterday?

Remember?

On the bank of Kamo River, you gave this to me.

I... did?

Um, that was the real you, wasn't it?

He was an imposter?!

It seems there is someone assuming my name and going around killing people.

So, was this person that much like me?

Yes...

Oh! I mean, no...

There is no need for you to be concerned...

No, I was being stupid!

For me to mistake someone else for you...

I'm sorry.

Soji, are you here?

Soji!

Are you all right?

You?!

Not bad. I see you're not Vice Commander for nothing.

Surprised?

I'm going to need you to die now.

Quite the looker, aren't you?

You're my type of guy.

Don't be ridiculous!

Vice Commander, I have come to your aid.

Well, well. The spitting image of Okita, is it?

How funny.

Damn, you had to get in my way.

I'll kill you along with him!

How dare you...

Damn bastard ran.

Hey, who are you?!

Hold it!

That bastard was fast.

He was wearing our uniform...

Could it be...

What's going on, Mr. Hijikata?

Soji!

If you're fine, that's all that matters.

I hope you're not suspecting that I'm the imposter.

As a matter of fact, Okita,

that very imposter appeared while you were out on patrol.

What?

He was quite the skilled swordsman.

You be certain to be on your guard as well.

I see...

Damn it, now I've been scarred.

Be still. I am applying the ointment.

You are truly beautiful.

If Saneakira had been alive, he would be just about your age.

Whoa, there, your lordship!

The sun hasn't even set yet.

My prince, you have grown into such a fine young man.

Do not say a word. I am dreaming right now...

You're giving me the creeps!

I'm not this Prince whatshisname, nor am I your lover.

Don't get the wrong idea!

You are right...

All I have in my hands are illusions...

How pitiable...

That child played in this room and passed away without ever seeing outside this residence.

Scorned as an illegitimate child

and without even prayers at his funeral...

With these hands I cared for him and with these hands I buried him.

Destroy this country for me!

I have no powers at my disposal,

but I will at least give you this body!

Kichisaburo, will you grant me my wish?

All right, your lordship.

So, what do I have to do?

Fire will spread across the capital soon.

I will show you the way to the imperial palace.

There, you must assassinate the Lord.

Leave your discussions for later, my lord.

A number of intruders will be arriving shortly.

I don't like this.

Just who is it pulling the strings behind him?

I don't really know,

but if their objective is to tarnish the Shinsengumi's reputation,

it has a rather disquieting aura to it for that.

I have it.

The enemy is likely a faction that has mastered esoteric incantations.

What? Those people...

Yes, I sense it.

Their eerie aura...

Which means, we have no choice but to go.

Gallant Master Okita...

Mr. Hijikata, look!

It's a cat.

Okita, you must not strike it!

Where... is this place?!

It seems we have fallen into a trap.

This is likely within the enemy's residence.

I have no doubt this is that Onmyo mystic from some time ago.

If this is the Eight-Element Battle Formation,

the enemy would seem to seriously intend to kill us.

How can you know that?

Lure the prey into the formation, confuse them and make them go crazy.

The Eight-Element Battle Formation is the incantation

that Zhuge Liang used long ago to annihilate the enemy's forces.

Damn it! The bastard uses peculiar spells.

We will get nowhere by just standing here.

We seem to have no choice but to enter those gates.

Master Okita!

What is this?

It's like some sort of house of tricks...

We seem to have fallen into a new incantation.

The Gate of Obstruction?!

Let us get out.

There should be an exit here.

The Gate of Life somewhere.

Wander to your hearts' content, you cursed Mibu ronin.

You cannot so easily escape the Eight-Element Battle Formation.

What awaits before you is the Gate of Death!

What'll I do?

No! Master Okita may be in trouble inside right this very minute!

What...

is this?

There!

Huh? It opened...

Oh, well!

Why?!

I peeled this one off too, since it was in the way.

It's so dirty!

I'm so glad I didn't take off my sandals.

Is this the Gate of Death?

That monster from before!

It's a child's room.

We cannot fight it like this!

This is a bad situation.

In this strange place, our abilities are powerless.

I'll just peel this one off too!

No!

The Eight-Element Battle Formation!

It was you, after all.

So, this is it.

You will not get away with this.

He escaped...

You guys sure are an odd bunch, coming all the way here just to get killed.

So you're...

Allow me a belated introduction. I am Kichisaburo of Yogotoya.

I shall be sending you gentlemen off on your final journey.

Stay away...

And you, are you man or evil spirit?

Man or evil spirit?

Why, I'm a man.

Though, a killer of man, who loves to kill!

You filthy, cursed Mibu ronin!

It is over for the capital!

I shall burn it to the ground!

He's mad.

This is great.

Shoot more at them!

Burn more!

Hey, you okay?

My robe!

It is burning... Burning... It is burning!

I feel sorry for them somehow.

He was a crazy bastard.

Don't think on it.

Come on, we're going back.

Master Okita!

Miss Hotaru...

Master Okita,

thank goodness you're safe!

I'm so sorry!

It's all right.

I was unable to help you at all...

No, you undid those seals for us, remember?

What? Those talismans?

Thank you.

You are a good maiden.

The business of a spy does not suit you.

What?!

Now, let us go back.

Even Master Okita knew?

I'm so...

Hotaru loved Master Okita very much!
