You started it. I only started acting because you wanted me to. I knew he was the one who killed my parents. I knew who Tarou really was. But I played the hero... for you.

He didn't wake up even after being carried into bed. He woke up right as I broke into a smile. “We're home, Yomi!” “!” Yomi looked around the room to figure out what was going on. Eventually his usual smile came to his face.

“But she won't be able to sing anymore. Without you, she—” “She can sing on her own.” “Then why—” “...Why do people want to be on screen?” “...” “It's so they can reach out to someone, right?” “I don't know.” “You're the only one who doesn't know.”

There was a kaiju nearby? I watched the traffic of people going back and forth. I found something that wasn't quite right. It was a kaiju. ...Yomi didn't notice a thing as he stood next to him. “...” “...Juurou?” I'd kill it before it could harm Yomi.

“Guess what! Yomi is gonna bring you lunch!” “I see.” “You don't look so good, so he's worried.” “...”

“I want to quit.” He wrapped his arms around me. ...His heartbeat was right in front of me. He was trying to comfort me. But when I thought about how I might someday lose this sound, too... fear instantly takes over.

“...I'll kill you all.” “I fight only for Yomi.”

I still cherished the crayon my uncle gave me. He didn't force me to be an actor. He didn't want me to be a hero. That must have been why Yomi stole his memories and words. Now he was begging me for justice in the middle of this hellfire.

“You're choosing a meteor shower over me?” “Yes.” He then coldly returned to the driver's seat. He rolled down the window a bit. I could barely hear him through the small gap. “I'll watch the house. Enjoy your time with Nozomi.”

Yomi. If my happiness can make you cry, why won't you cry for my sadness?

...It wasn't afraid of death. But I was death, and that wouldn't be enough to beat me. Strength coursed through me because I couldn't lose.

“When you told me you were going to live somewhere else, I thought you hated me.” “But I'm glad we're still close... Thanks.” “Don't tell me that, tell that to Ms. Nozomi.” “...” “Even if she knows, it's always nice to hear it out loud.” I prayed that we'd crash somewhere.

“What I did was the same thing your parents did and what my other self did to Shin'ichi.” “I made more kaiju and took him down.” “Kaiju and Icarus... are both 'me.'“ “Well, I suppose from the vastness of space, you and I are no different either.”

“I won't tell anyone. In return...” “Never leave the house and wait for me to get back.” “Don't run away, okay? If you do, I'll break your legs.” He was prepared to kill me.

...Yomi was smiling. He saw my body tremble from those tiny movements and smiled at me lovingly. Unable to gather any strength in my hands, I almost fell backwards. The darkness spreading around my feet lifted me up.

“I'll kill the white Icarus tonight.” “...” “So I can hold you.” I'd show him my strength. “I'll be waiting.”

“Wh-Wh-What did you do?! How could you do something s-s-so obscene to Yomi?!” “...” “Juro! What's gotten into you?!” ...Was it nothing more than arrogance?
