The Phantom of Metal (Strange presences of normal size)

What's up?

I've been feeling strange lately... I didn't tell anybody...But...

I feel like my body is changing.

Yeah?

A monster, see? It's like I'm changing into a monster. A steel monster..

Sorry. So the sexual murders happening around here...

were they your fault?

Have there been murders?

Ah, the moon is so beautiful

You did it again, didn't you? Don't hang up. I know everything about you!

You can't run away from me! Die, you monster of steel!

Come fucking out, wherever you are!

But...you're Fukatani, from sales...

It's been a while...

Can I find out what's going on?

When the woman whom I had seized...

came up to you, I was very happy.

And when you killed her, I almost came...

But for her it was just bad luck, wasn't it?

And about your girlfriend... that wasn't me.

You did it!

She was a good little sweetheart though... wasn't she?

Don't come any closer!

How did you get such a power? Did something happen...

after the car crash, while you were lying in your hospital bed?

They are slivers.

Slivers?

During the crash, a large metallic sliver was stuck in my neck...

and many microscopic fragments penetrated my brain.

They couldn't operate, because blood clotted around those scraps.

If they had exploded, I'd now be dead, or a vegetable.

To compensate for that fear,

extraordinary powers were given to my brain.

The metal stuck in my brain has given me these powers.

And since then, I started to see you for who you are.

I'm sorry to have to say it... but you're really annoying me!

Don't come near me!

You can't fight me! Because the one who gave you your extraordinary power...

...that was me!

What are you talking about?

One just has to look at your body to understand...

...you got your telepathy from the metallic cells!

I see. If it's like that, then, I'll sort you out!

I... I... I dare you!

Well, it's almost time to burn the world with our love!

Until the end!!
