It was autumn. It was also Ayumi and Shion's first day as high school students. They happened to be in the same school and in same class. The teacher came in and the two introduced themselves.
When the final bell rang, Ayumi excused himself. He turned left and headed in the direction of the graveyard. It was a habitual visit to his mother, just like usual. Or so he told himself. In truth, there were two more graves he planned to visit today.
When he reached the graveyard, they were calling to him, the two gravestones. He touched one gently. Engraved on them were words 'Ishiwatari Kazuki 1967-2005' and 'Ishiwatari Yuuki 1970-2005'
"Two innocent souls killed by a madman so he could indulge his own desires to be the greatest. What a terrible reason to die." Ayumi thought
Then they were in front of him. Ghosts of Kazuki and Yuuki were in front of him.
"I suppose you couldn't move on yet." Ayumi said "Something to do with offspring you left behind."
"Yes, as a matter of fact. You two are close. Protect our child in our stead." Yuuki whispered
Ayumi then made up his mind.
However, he didn't count on one thing. One important thing
"So you want to date my daughter, don't you?" Shinji Yasuoka thundered
"Y-yes....." Ayumi said in small voice
"Well, you'd better make sure she doesn't come to harm. If Makoto Hanii gets out of jail, you two will leave the city, understood."
"Yes." Ayumi said, this time more firmly. |
