EPISODE 5: THE CURSE OF LIFE

INSIDE, IN THE BEDROOM OF YŪTO AND AIKO-DAY

YŪTO (15)

Aaaaaaa. {yawn}

(Time passed and aiko became an eighteen-year-old girl (18) and yūto a fifteen-year-old girl (15) younger and taller than aiko, as in the Japanese village she has the best reputation. At dawn, yūto with a yawn dresses and goes to wash, where he is washed he looks in the mirror and takes in his hand a small pair of scissors. So he looks at his long purple-black hair for a while, then smiles and starts cutting it. When he has finished cutting his hair, with one movement of his hand he brings all the hair back and looks again in the mirror, grabs in his hands the comb and starts combing them backwards. Finally he leaves the comb and starts pouring water on his face. When he had finished washing his face he looked once more at the mirror and exclaimed with a smile on his lips.

INDOOR, INSIDE THE BATHROOM-DAY

YŪTO

Much better now.

(Yūto begins to advance toward the table. Mother smiles when she sees him)

INDOOR, DINING ROOM INSIDE THE HOUSE-DAY

MOTHER

Come and eat with us yūto.

(Yūto responds with a smile)

YŪTO

Good Morning, mom. thank you.

(And sits down to eat. So there eating the morning meal, aiko looks at him with a smile persistently, yūto turns and looks at aiko. Aiko makes out that nothing is wrong while yūto looks at her with curiosity)

YŪTO

Something wrong, aiko?

(Aiko with a smile on her lips responds)

AIKO

Nothing, nothing, heheee.

(And he laughs mock laughter. Then when yūto comes back to continue eating, aiko with her two fingers tapping them with each other asks him)

AIKO

Yūto, you look very handsome today.

(Yūto smiles and with his eyes closed, answers)

YŪTO

Thanks aiko, but not as much as you.

(Aiko passes her left arm around yuto's neck and approaches his ear saying)

AIKO

Well, well...

(Yūto turns towards aiko with a look of Wonder)

YŪTO

What is it?

AIKO

Come on, Come on, you little brother tell me why you cut your hair?

(Yūto as he eats his morning meal answers)

YŪTO

I wanted to make a little change, that's all.

(Aiko again says in a sly tone)

AIKO

You don't fool me yūto, tell me the truth. You like none of the village, don't you?

(Yūto straightway spits the food he is chewing into his mouth. So with red face and in panic he shakes his hands in the negative)

YŪTO

No, no! What are you talking about, aiko, are you okay?!

AIKO

Then why did you cut them, Brother? Come on, Come On, tell me, tell me.

(Yūto gets up from the table to leave)

YŪTO

Stop the nonsense aiko, don't act like a little kid. It's not your job to know. But even if I had a reason, I wouldn't tell you.

(Aiko is caught by yūto's leg so he won't leave and says with a sad look)

AIKO

I never thought you'd tell me that. We've been through so much together, and you. And you treat me like this?! Shame on you yūto, shame on you!

(While yūto tries to drive away aiko yells)

YŪTO

I had no reason to cut my hair! I just wanted to make a little change over myself, nothing's going on! LET GO OF ME AIKO, TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF ME AND DON'T STOP ME! I'M GONNA BE LATE FOR WORK, YOU KNOW?!

(Aiko continues to be held by yūto's leg)

AIKO

I won't leave you until you tell me! I know you're lying to me, we grew up together don't forget, I know you as well as the palm of my hand! Tell me, tell me, don't leave me!

(Yūto keeps shouting at aiko to leave him but in vain. The mother who has been looking at them for some time smiles and continues to eat her morning meal with her eyes closed)

AIKO

Come on, yūto, we're brothers and you can trust me! Tell me, no one will know, I promise!

(The mother beckons with her hand for yūto to approach her as she tells him in a calm voice)

MOTHER

Yūto, you come a little I need you for something very important.

(Aiko and yūto suddenly calm down. Aiko leaves him and yūto says approaching the mother)

YŪTO

What do you want from me, mother?

(As yūto approaches the mother, the mother Winks her eye beckoning him to leave. Yūto smiles and passes the mother running. Aiko meanwhile is stunned and then runs behind yūto. But the mother prevents her by tripping, aiko falls and furious cries)

AIKO

YŪTO! COME BACK! WE'RE NOT DONE YET, I'LL WAIT FOR YOU BACK!

(YŪTO running looking behind him with a smile and shouting)

YŪTO

THANKS MOM, I'LL OWE YOU.

(The mother smiles farewell to yūto, while aiko tries to get up. Yūto as he leaves stretches out his hand greeting mother and aiko, mother with a smile says)

MOTHER

Take care, sweet yūto.

(Aiko gets up from the floor and says with horrified gaze to the mother approaching her menacingly)

AIKO

Mother, it's time for your punishment hehe heehehee.

(The mother looks at aiko and with fear in her gaze starts to move backwards. Then again says aiko approaching the mother with Demon Gaze)

AIKO

Now yūto is not here to save you from your fate. So I can punish you any way I want.

(Mother thinks with sweat on her face)

MOTHER

I hadn't thought of that. Damn, I'm scared, I'm very scared, yūto where are you?

AIKO

Mmm I see, I see heehee. How about I get you to dust off the basement that hasn't been cleaned in centuries, I'm sure there are rats down there, don't you think, Mother? Hecheehee.

(Mother screams saying)

MOTHER

NO, NO, NO, NO! ANYTHING BUT NOT THE BASEMENT, PLEASE, NO! YŪTO WHERE ARE YOU!

(Yūto has grown up, so he helps as he can in the village community, as he has been accepted among people and everyone likes him)

OUTDOOR AREA, IN THE STREETS OF THE VILLAGE - DAY

MAN

Good morning yūto.

YŪTO

Good morning.

(A little further down he meets an old woman who has just taken out of the oven some cookies, so he sees yūto and beckons him with her hand to approach)

OLD LADY

Yūto, yūto! Come closer, come closer.

(Yūto approaches with a smile saying)

YŪTO

Good morning.

(the old lady gives him a bag of cookies)

OLD LADY

Come and get this bag, it's for the road. I just took them out of the oven.

(YŪTO looks at her with a smile and tells her as he takes them in his hand)

YŪTO

They look very tasty, thank you very much.

(Yūto makes a bow to the old woman and leaves. Yūto's job is to grow various vegetables in the fields of the village. We see images like: yuto working. At the break yūto takes out a bottle of water and drinks a little, then wipes off the sweat that is on his face. At that moment a friend from his job aged eighteen (18) comes and sits beside him tired. Yūto says with a smile offering him Cookies)

OUTDOOR AREA, IN THE FIELDS OF THE VILLAGE-NOON TO AFTERNOON

YŪTO

You want some? They're very tasty, you don't know what you're missing.

FRIEND OF YŪTO

Thank.

(The friend replies with a smile. Then as they eat and drink water yūto asks:)

YŪTO

Have you seen itachi at all these days?

(The friend thinks a little and answers)

FRIEND

No, unfortunately, yūto, I haven't seen him at work in days. He hasn't set foot in town for several days, too. He had the bastard, he probably ran away and went to make his own life. Lucky.

(Yūto bends his head)

YŪTO

Mmm see, thank you for the information.

(For a while silence prevails)

FRIEND

Have you heard the new news circulating in the village? And another man you're missing, has been missing for almost five days from what I heard at least. The information circulating in our village is not the most valid, but what to do? Whatever.

(Yūto says looking at friend)

YŪTO

Do you think it is…

FRIEND

Don't doubt it, it was definitely a demon.

(Yūto says.)

YŪTO

Pity, let us hope the soul of this man has exulted wherever his corpse lies.

FRIEND

I'd rather not. But people don't wake up, they don't understand that a few must be sacrificed to save the many. As time goes on demon hunters decline and demons invade cities devouring people.

(The friend drinks a sip from a bottle of saké (酒) that he always carries with him)

YŪTO

Can we not resolve this issue peacefully? Surely they have a reason to hunt people?

(The friend squints and spits saké (酒) on the ground. Then he barks and when he comes back he looks at yūto wiping his mouth with his hand)

FRIEND

Demons don't want peace but only war. To them we are a mouthful, an appetizer. I don't know if you understand me. They like to have the upper hand in this world, to sow panic and feed on your fear. So you better make up your mind that someday you're going to die, so that you don't get too scared when the fateful moment of your death has come, ehehehee.

YŪTO

You said people should wake up and sacrifice the few for the many. Why don't you become demon hunter?

(The friend again drinks a sip of saké (酒))

FRIEND

Becoming a demon hunter is not the simplest thing, yūto. It takes patience and countless hours of practice, besides all this you have to have a teacher to teach you all this and finally, a demon hunter never fights alone. You have to find a team if you want to survive. Unless you're a lonely bastard who can disembowel entire armies of demons on your own, echehee.

(Then he drinks another sip of his saké (酒) )

FRIEND

I would never want to be a demon hunter. I'd rather stay in this quiet place with my family than fight demons and worry every second of my life that, that Now, Now, Now as we speak and I'm fighting the biggest battle, it's probably time to die and leave behind a box of memories and emotions. Let the other useless living people die to save me. I want to enjoy my life.

(Yūto turns his head towards the friend)

YŪTO

So you wouldn't want to help anyone?

(the friend starts laughing and when he stops he says)

FRIEND

Hahahahahaa. Bless you yūto, that you made my day, you made me laugh at the joke you told. What kind of question is that? Of course I want to help. Think if I help, it's not those pathetic people who die, it's me. That's why I want to enjoy my life and others to come apart for me.

(Yūto's look gets serious)

YŪTO

You're terrible. I never thought you'd say that, you let me down. You are, you are ... selfish!

(friend says as he smiles)

FRIEND

No, no yūto I am not selfish. I'm a realist. That's my point of view, my way.

(Straight yūto is surprised)

FRIEND

Think yūto, what world would you like to live in and compare with the world you are in now. Every one of us is selfish, why? Because he wants to live and survive, in this life in short something you have to give and something you have to take, right?

FRIEND

Yūto, my dear friend. You're still young and innocent, you don't know how this world behaves. Most people will look to eat you and take something from you. I wonder why you ever thought of that? Because they think they'll live by that method. The big fish eats the little fish. Have you heard that sentence, yūto? This is the law of nature, and you cannot change it.

(Yūto lowers his head down not knowing her to say)

FRIEND

But you, yūto, are different. You want to help and inspire people to become a punch. Because that's the only way we'll all live. But most people don't know that. They will never learn the meaning of these rare words. Therefore, I suggest that you, as a good friend, turn your back and continue on your own to pave the road called life.

(At that moment the boss comes in and in a stern tone addresses the two people)

BOSS

What are you two doing here?

(Both rise from their seats startled)

YŪTO

Nothing, boss, we're taking our break.

BOSS

The break was over ten minutes ago.

FRIEND

Sorry, boss, we didn't know when the time was up.

(The boss turns his back and as he leaves says)

BOSS

Not to be repeated, now back to work quick-quick we have no time to waste, boys.

(So the friend starts walking away saying)

FRIEND

See you yūto, take care little fish.

(Yūto greets him saying)

YŪTO

Mmm, and you take care, shark.

(Yūto as he works thinks of all the words the friend said in the break and thinks)

YŪTO

Maybe he's right. One must sacrifice oneself to save all these people, but who can that be?

(Yūto stops work and looks at his Palm. Then a memory comes to him of Father.)

THE FLASHBACK OF THE PAST BEGINS:

FATHER

I mean I'll teach you like any father of demi people to control your fire. No, I'll teach you to become something

better than a simple warrior, I will teach you in such a way that you become a demon hunter and live a true life.

YŪTO

I'll make it, I promise! I will not let my fire take over me, for my way is to help all those people who need my help! I will not disappoint you, you will see it and one day when the sun rises again you will be proud of my achievements!

RETURN FROM THE RETROSPECTIVE OF THE PAST:

(Yūto clenches his fist and with a smile answers himself)

YŪTO

And this one I have in front of me. It'll be me, I'll go! I am tired of seeing any more sad and anxious looks for tomorrow. I would rather die gloriously and give hope to this place than not react and die a forgotten day. Well from tomorrow my journey starts, Maybe mother and aiko will be upset about the decision I made. But, but I hope they understand. To understand that it's for the good of all of us and for a better tomorrow.

(The afternoon has come and it is slowly getting dark, the work is over and the boss cries wiping the sweat on his face)

OUTDOOR AREA, IN THE FIELDS OF THE VILLAGE-AFTERNOON TO NIGHT

BOSS

That's it for today! Well done guys we did a great job today! Come back tomorrow, good rest everyone!

(Yūto picks up his backpack and with sweat on his face takes the way back. Yūto walks and thinks in parallel)

YŪTO

Mmm, now that I'm going back home, aiko's gonna be mad about what I did to her. Who hears her voices? Good grief.

(And closes his eyes, takes a deep breath and thinks again)

YŪTO

He's gonna want to know why I cut my hair. I need to find an excuse.

(While walking she hears crying from a woman and a man trying to stop her)

OUTDOOR SPACE, BETWEEN THE ENTRANCE OF THE FOREST AND THE VILLAGE-AFTERNOON TO EVENING

MAN

The child is lost now, you can't save it!

(The yūto curious who is approaching)

WOMAN

No, no, no! This can not happen, she will definitely be alive!

(So yūto with all the courage asks)

YŪTO

What happened? Can I help you? Just tell me who's gone, and I'll help you any way I can.

(The woman falls at yūto's feet and says with tears dripping from her cheeks)

WOMAN

Please! I beg you, son! My child has gone into the woods, and now that it is dark the Demons would kill her, and-and-I don't want to imagine what horrors she will go through! I beg you, son, go save her! Bring back my daughter alive and I will reward you as you wish! Please, son, I'm falling at your feet, please! I beg you!

(Then yūto leaves his backpack and says courageously)

YŪTO

I'll go! I promise you I will bring her back alive!

(And he clenches his fists. The woman smiles as she continues to have tears in her eyes)

WOMAN

Thank God! Thanks, son. go, go, hurry.

(While YŪTO is about to dive into the dark forest, the man prevents him by stretching out his left hand in front of yūto. Then with a look of concern she answers him)

MAN

Don't listen to the stupid woman, it's dangerous in there. Alone, without any help, there are demons in there!

(Yūto lowering the man's hand saying with head held high)

YŪTO

I've been in the woods before, it's not my first time, you don't have to worry about anything. She is now at your house, where it is dark, and I will bring the girl back.

MAN

But there are demons in there! You won't get out alive, if you get in there's no coming back, kid, listen to me, damn you!

(Yūto does not hear word from the man, all he wants is to save this girl. So he runs into the woods looking for the girl. The man and woman smile demonstratively and turn into two black shadows, then disappear. Yūto on the other hand runs with his body forward and his arms backward, thinking only of the girl)

YŪTO

I have to find the girl first before it's too late. I have to find her. No! No yūto, you'll find the little girl first, you bet! Have faith, damn you!

(Yūto continues to run through the forest while it is getting dark for good)

YŪTO

Looks like my demon hunter job started earlier than I expected, hehe. Let's see how my first mission goes.

(Yūto in the darkness sees from afar a shadow fainting)

YŪTO

WAIT, WAIT!

(The shadow ignores him and moves away)

YŪTO

Wait! COME BACK!

(Yūto shouts again following the shadow. The shadow after several runs stops in a large clearing and transforms into the idol of the girl. Then yūto arrives there thinking it's the girl. With a smile and sweat on his face he says)

OUTDOOR SPACE, IN THE FOREST IN A CLEARING TO-NIGHT

YŪTO

I finally found you. It's Dangerous Here, Come on, let's go back to the village.

(So he approaches the girl and when she goes to grab the shoulder, it disappears. Yūto is surprised and anxious)

YŪTO

HUH?! What just happened? What's up?

(A demon appears behind yūto and makes a move with his long, pointed claws to kill him. Yūto turns his head and sees only the claws of the demon, he does not have time to defend himself. So the demon stabs him in the chest and then kicks him. Yūto from the kick received by the Demon is annihilated and strikes against a trunk of a tree, then falls down to the ground. yūto stands up with a few scratches on his face and blood dripping from his chest, then faces the demon. He is a demon with only a white color horn on his head, red color the irises of his eyes and black color has the (White) of the eye, black color is also his hair)

DEMON

Too late, hunter.

(The demon laughs fiendishly with his hands dripping blood. Yūto thinks with horror at his sight)

YŪTO

His hands! No, it can't be! No, no, this can't be happening! Lack…

(The pupils of yūto's eyes twinkle, and he looks at the hands of this demon dripping blood. Yūto Bony, sweat dripping from his frightened gaze)

DEMON

And yet it happens hunter! What's wrong are you okay? Hahahahahahaha.

(The demon sneers and licks his claws saying again)

DEMON

How can you act like you've seen something that scares you so much? Like you saw a ghost or a demon in front of you, hahahahahahaha!

(He laughs fiendishly again. Yūto takes a few steps back startled)

YŪTO

Did you... did you eat the girl?

DEMON

Hahahahahahaha yes! Mmm, I confess that the taste of her flesh and blood was very sweet, very delicious. But now it's your turn!

(The Demon makes up some shadows and appears behind YŪTO. YŪTO starts running through the forest scared)

DEMON

Where are you off to, kid? Hechee, no one can hide from me. You want to play, I guess, and I really like the chase. Well, let's play.

(The shadows follow yūto, but yūto knows how to use his fire. On the occasion of the power he possesses, yūto opens the palms of his hands at the same time running, and from there comes out the purple fire. The same sound is heard when the fire is lit. Then he closes his palms into fists, the fire spreading to the elbow of his hands. Yūto as he runs through the forest to escape meets the first shadows. So he keeps running towards them with his arms backward and his body forward. When he gets too close, he surprisingly decapitates them and keeps running. But later other shadows appear to follow him. Yūto surprisingly avoids the attacks of the shadows, but the demon appears behind each shadow and injures him by making many scratches on his face and body, his clothes are torn. Yūto stops running into a clearing and destroys any shadow that approaches him in an impressive manner. He destroys them in a surprising way by making little leaps and striking the shadows in the air with both his feet, and also with his hands. After a few minutes of fighting, yūto stops fighting the shadows and thinks)

YŪTO

He's strong. These shadows do all the work for him.

(After each attack of shadows appears behind them and injures him)

YŪTO

How can I beat him?

(Blood drips from yūto's face because of the scratches the Demon has made on him. Then the demon stops fighting)

DEMON

I'm surprised at your potential.

DEMON

But no matter how many shadows you destroy, I'll be here to create new ones!

(And he makes some very quick movements with his fingers, then rests his hand on the ground creating other shadows. Yūto avoids, surprisingly repels the attacks of the shadows and reciprocates them. Some time after, the shadows become more and more and yūto with tremendous effort tries to destroy them. But in vain the shadows have encircled him. It's all over! No, nothing's over yet!

(yūto yells)

YŪTO

FIRE CYCLE, AAH!

(He leans his hands on the ground and raises his feet, and with force twists his arms and his feet that put out the purple fire. Its legs twist with a slight difference from each other making a semicircle of purple fire. The shadows burn. At that moment the demon finds the opportunity and attacks with a pothole step on the ground to kill yūto. Yūto sees the demon and repels all his attacks, except the last. With the force that hits him the demon sends him meters away and he falls to the ground. Then, after with difficulty yūto gets up from the ground, the Demon is tired of the battle wanting to end it here and now)

DEMON

Oh, I'm sick of it. let's get this over with.

(So the shadows attack again. Yūto destroys them and gets very close to hitting the demon, but the Demon is fast and yūto no longer has strength to continue. Then the demon passes to his claws through the belly of yūto. Yūto spurting blood from his mouth falls down to the ground and above him the demon laughs fiendishly)

DEMON

Too bad you won't see the people from your village burned and eaten. Oops, I missed it, because now it's happening! Hahahahahahaha!

(Yūto with the little power he has raises his head towards and looks at the demon)

YŪTO

Lies! That's not gonna happen!

DEMON

My innocent boy, you will see it in a moment where you are going. It's time to meet them.

(The demon tries to finish him by passing his claws through his head. At that moment yūto thinks of the promise he made to his sister, and in his mind come all the good times he spent with her. He thinks about the incident with the dog, the acquaintance with itachi, the walks they took by the river, when he saved aiko from the Demon, the hug that aiko gave him, this morning when aiko wanted to know why she got a haircut and finally the two fingers of the two children come together and promise that they will protect each other. Yūto closes his eyes, thinks)

YŪTO

All this isn't true, it's just that the Demon is trying to make me bend. But I will not bend. Why, why…

(And then a picture of aiko appears Who Laughs sweetly with her eyes closed as she says)

AIKO

Yūto, I love you very much.

(When yūto opens his eyes, his eyes change color and turn white. Meanwhile where the Demon goes to pass his claws through yūto's head, yūto catches his hand stopping him. The Demon is startled)

DEMON

What?!

(The Demon gets nervous and sweat starts rolling down his face. At the same time yūto stands up and with lowered head says:)

YŪTO

You'll pay for all you've done, you bastard!

(He kicks the demon and tears out his hand. The Demon is launched meters away. Then yuto with the foot that surrounds him the purple fire spurts towards the demon and strikes him sending him away again meters away. The demon with blood and bruises on his face laughs. As he gets up he answers)

DEMON

You'll pay, you don't know who you're dealing with, you idiot! You don't know what power I possess. Well, you'll find out soon enough!

(Shadows start flying from the ground but yūto cool moves towards the demon fearing nothing. Yūto is filled with the purple fire on his hands and feet, whatever shadow approaches him makes an attack to kill him, but yūto repels her blows and destroys her. This sometimes happens until he stops a few meters near the demon and with his head raised, covered with blood and bruises says ironically)

YŪTO

Is that all you can do?

(The Demon is startled and steps back in fear while dripping sweat from his face. On this occasion he creates so many shadows that they attack yūto. Yūto stands still, does not move, and the shadows cover him like a tsunami. Yūto is covered by so many shadows that nothing is seen, only black shadows are seen. The demon smiles briefly saying relieved)

DEMON

You're an amateur. I did it, I beat you, you stupid useless worm. Hahahahahahahahahahaha!

(And he wipes the sweat on his forehead. Then the demon steps to flee but yūto's purple fire is seen and after a while the shadows melt and burn. Then yūto is seen doing the fire cycle move. The Demon is frightened by talking to himself)

DEMON

Damn it he's strong, what do I do to kill him, what?! No matter what I do, he's gonna find a way out, slipping like an eel. There's no escape, he's a monster! A DEMON!

DEMON

Impossible! I've never seen such power. Need to update-

(And where the demon thinks, yūto shoots like lightning and cuts off his head. Blood spurts out of the demon's body. Yūto throws aside his head while the body slowly evaporates in the form of dust. Yūto comes back, his white eyes returning to their normal purple color. The demon says with blood and bruises on his face, and at the same time evaporates)

DEMON

Hahahahaha you may have killed me, but I got you something more valuable

which you can't replace Hahahahahahahahahaha.

(Yūto nervously sweats and without a second thought starts running towards the village. Then the voice of the Demon is heard saying)

DEMON

Yes! Yes! YEAH, RUN, RUN! RUN, LITTLE HUNTER, RUN TO SEE THE HELL I CREATED HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

(As he runs towards the village, yūto thinks)

YŪTO

Surely that demon must have lied. He can't have attacked the village, since he's been with me all this time fighting. He was with me, he was with me, no, no, no he can't!

(While he gets very close to the village and sees nothing he cries)

YŪTO

I'm here! I came back mom, aiko-

(But Everything has been burned and bloodied. Yūto walks to his house unable to believe that everything around him has been destroyed. Not a single survivor. We see images like: people without heads, without arms, without legs, without heads and blood everywhere. After a short walk he arrives at his house and sees his mother and sister bloodied on the floor of the House. Mother is still breathing and yūto with anxiety responds. Then starts playing a beautiful, kinetic piano melody in backround)

OUTSIDE, IN THE YARD OF THE HOUSE - THE SUN RISES

YŪTO

Mother! I'll make you save yourself.

(Yūto upset attempts to lift her, but the mother does not want so responds with a smile on her lips)

MOTHER

Leave me yūto, it is certain that I will die. There is no way out of this, do not try unfairly. Let me die in peace.

(Yūto with tears in his eyes embraces the mother)

YŪTO

Mom, Mom, I'm sorry! Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! Sorry!

(The mother lets him out of her arms and looks at him as her hand caresses his cheek fondly)

MOTHER

Be strong and be careful, yes yūto?

(Yūto with tears in his eyes grasps the mother's hand)

MOTHER

I want to tell you a secret, I think you're old enough now to share it. It's that you're not my real son, but we found you in the river with aiko one day and you had this.

(The woman makes a move and pulls out a small pendant with a fire while its color is orange. His mother gives it, and yūto with tears in his eyes answers the mother)

YŪTO

I didn't keep my word! I didn't keep the promise I made to aiko! That ... that I will protect you, protect my sister, that's... that's why I want to promise you again! I want revenge! I WANT REVENGE! I will take revenge on all the demons and become the best demon hunter ever! The Demons will fear my name and will never again dare to kidnap other people or kill! I promise! I will kill them all until your souls rest!

(mother caresses him and smiles sweetly)

MOTHER

Why not, you are strong, you have always been strong and we will stand by you yūto. But don't let your power drag you down. Remember that you choose who you want to be, choose the right one, son. Put all these black feelings behind you, do not be tyrannized by the thoughts of the past but, think and create with light colors the future. Your life is in your hands, grab it and don't leave it until the end.

(The mother smiles, and as a tear falls from her cheek to the ground, at the same time her hand falls also to the ground. Her breath stops, these are her last words before she draws her last breath. Yūto screams, cries and at the end when he calms down says crying)

YŪTO

Goodbye. Good-bye, mother, good-bye.

(Tears fall on the mother's dead hand by yūto. After the lamentation, yūto starts and carries the mother with his sister on his back. Then any man he finds in the village picks him up and carries him to that place where he left his mother and sister. Finally after leaving the last decapitated or mutilated man it starts raining and yūto in anger starts digging. After the burial of all the people who died in the village, yūto with the Orange medallion tied on his neck and with nerves sits and looks at the forest)

OUTDOOR AREA, BETWEEN THE ENTRANCE OF THE FOREST AND THE VILLAGE - DAY

YŪTO

Run and save yourselves demons while it's early, or I won't leave anyone standing. You will never set foot on the ground again, nor will you ever gaze at the moon in the sky, it is a promise and I will keep it to the end!

(Yūto re-enters the forest with a step. As he runs through the forest with his body forward and his hands backward he cannot forget all that has happened. In his mind come images of the past, images of the good times he passed and the death of all the people of the village. Yūto abruptly shakes his head wanting to forget it all, so in his mind he has only the revenge to kill any demon he finds in front of him. It has contracted and the Demons can circulate and in the daytime, in the forest various sounds are heard, yūto without fear lights the fire in his two hands and says with a cold look)

YŪTO

Your genocide begins now, demons.
