It's futile.

I'm not the same as I used to be.

You won't get away from me.

I told you it's futile.

I have surpassed you.

Why...

Why did you have to die?

Blood of the Reprimanded Dog

What's going on?

They should be here by now.

Gramps!

Oh, it's you.

Akira and Keisuke aren't here yet?

Nope.

Is Keisuke all right?

I don't know all the details,

but Akira's bringing him here.

I see.

It's taking too long.

Maybe something's happened.

The military has started shooting all over the town.

It's total chaos out there.

I hope they're all right.

Wait here a bit longer!

I'll go look for them on the other side.

W-Wait, Rin!

I'll be back soon!

Would you have lived,

if I hadn't been here?

Keisuke...

Why do you grieve?

Death only means that your brain will stop functioning...

and your heart will stop beating.

That's all there is to it.

That was decided in the beginning.

It wasn't my decision.

There's nothing left to decide on.

I won't accept this kind of destiny.

You killed Keisuke.

You!!

Those eyes.

Your blood.

You won't back out of a fight.

Your blood yearns for battle.

Shut up!

Is that all you've got?

Rin!

Akira, are you all right?

What's he doing?

He looks different...

Akira, wait!

He...

He killed Keisuke.

Keisuke?

Keisuke...

No way...

He did that to Keisuke.

I can't just let that slide.

I'm gonna-

Akira, don't!

It's not worth it!

Let's go meet with Gramps!

Keisuke would have wanted that too!

Your blood.

It yearns to fight.

You must feel it boiling.

Just like mine.

No one here is like you!

Akira!

I won't let him kill you.

Rin!

Let me at him!

Akira!

I'm not gonna let you die alone.

So I'll fight too.

Trash.

Rin!

Rin!

Akira!

That's it!

More!

More!

Accept this blood...

and show me how you'll overcome this trial!

Trash...

Rin.

Rin?

Akira.

I'm sorry, Rin.

You got hurt because of me.

I don't think I can move...

Please get out of here.

I told you I wouldn't betray you.

Akira...

What are you going to do?

I don't know.

I still need to do everything.

All of it has been there since the beginning.

Up until now, I have always been nothing but a living weapon.

A tool of the military.

Then what do you want to do?

I don't need a reason to live.

If I were you, I wouldn't let the military catch me ever again.

I'd stop doing what I was told and live the way I want to live.

That is impossible.

It's not impossible!

That's what having a reason to live is! You have one too.

Maybe you'd be able to smile like a normal person,

if you hadn't been used by the military.

Smile? Me?

Follow me.

Er, hey...

It's snowing!

You're on your own from this point on.

And you?

You cannot avoid being dyed in some color.

Come with us!

You two should go.

It's not just CFC, it's the Nikko Group too!

What's going on here?

Even the military is attacking right now.

Well, what should we do?

You'll protect me.

Sure thing, bitch.

Bitch!

D-Damn it!

Akira! Rin!

I was wondering if you were okay.

Gramps...

What's up?

Did you get hurt?

That looks pretty bad.

There.

Does it hurt?

No, I'm okay.

So, where's Keisuke?

I see.

Akira...

Keisuke must have wanted you to live...

so that the pain,

memories, and souls

of the dead wouldn't disappear or be forgotten.

No matter how hard it can be, the living have an obligation to fulfill.

There's a reason why your life was spared.

Let's go, Akira.

Let's make sure we get out of Toshima alive.

Yeah.

The Nikko Group is out there.

Let's hurry.

Akira!

The pure white snow kept falling and piling up,

as if trying to mask the tragedy that took place in Toshima.

As for me,

after escaping the Nikko Group,

I had a quiet life without anything threatening me.

Peaceful ordinary days.

I wonder if my quiet life here will continue forever?

It's impossible to die in the middle of battle here.

If I could find it

If I could find it

Who cares for the weed under that thrives

Who cares for the weed under that thrives

Let live or die

Let live or die

Just step on it if... you know

Just step on it if... you know

Everybody wants that rush inside

Everybody wants that rush inside

That hunger to die

Take the honey

Eat the body, it’s you

Eat the body, it’s you

Just a step away

Just a step away

Akira?

The doctor told me that you'll be able to walk soon.

Yeah.

But for now, you're stuck in physical therapy.

I'm doing my best.

Good.

Well then, I'll come see you again.

Akira!

Will you really, really, come see me again?

Of course.

I'm sorry.

I've just been worried,

because of the promise you made earlier.

I'll kill you if you break it.

Yeah.

I got it.

See you later.

Oh hey, Akira!

Gramps.

You here to visit Rin too?

Yeah.

Where did you get that car from?

You're looking at an information broker, you know.

Nikko Group can be useful.

Then you must know about what's going on in Toshima right now?

Yeah.

Lately there's been talk about new Line appearing on the market.

But you knew about that, didn't you?

Yeah.

Sounds like the aftereffects will take this normal town by storm.

Until the very end, Keisuke regretted taking Line.

And after suffering through it and returning to normal, he died.

It must have been painful.

Line brings nothing but suffering.

That's right.

Akira, how 'bout it?

It's been a while, shall we grab something to eat?

Weren't you going to go visit Rin?

Some other time.

Up until now, I've lived my life thinking that nothing mattered.

Myself or other people. Dying or living. Those things didn't concern me.

There wasn't any special meaning to living just because you weren't dead.

That's how I felt.

It was always a mystery to me.

How those people, attached to life,

Maybe I didn't go to Toshima just to clear away those false charges.

Fighting in Bl@ster and Igra didn't make me feel anything.

I thought there might be murderers in Toshima who were participating in Igra.

Maybe there's something there.

But when I lost Keisuke,

I realized for the first time,

that I had been wrong about everything up until then.

I felt like a stone had blocked my throat.

And now an even greater pain stabs my chest.

This is death.

The pain that Keisuke taught me.

The feeling I had lost sight of and left behind.

I had a realization.

About life and death...

and the meaning of existence...

and why people are so attached to life.

People could live for something they couldn't pass on.

Something they'd want to protect or something they'd want to have.

Anything would do.

Thanks to Keisuke, I understood that.

Found your answer yet?

Can you get through this?

I will walk my own path.

For this blood, for the past,

Distractions day after day, it's always something

and in memory of what took place here.

I've come here for the sake of all that!

and no one has even realized that

Will you be able to rise to these heights?

I see the crimson trailing down your cold skin

I'll show you!

Why do you want another punishment?

That's right...

No matter how horrible they are,

The sweet fragrances that are drifting about

you can't just forget your past or your memories.

I just want to leave them be

I know that the person standing here right now isn't someone else.

Someone hurry up and shoot me

It's me.

Show me a gunshot strong enough to make a hole

I won't forget the importance of the lives I took.

I crush my thorny grip

and load bullets that look like ripe flowerbuds

I'm destined to settle this!

Let me shoot through the soul

and dye it rose
