Chapter 18 - Chapter 18: Next stop, Mikurajima island

21h00 and the boys head back to Futo port and are about to sail to Mikurajima island, but as they were about to leave a police officer arrives at the port.

"Freeze!" - detective pointing a gun

They all put their hands in the air.

"Do we have a problem officer?" - Ryu

"It's detective, and yes we do have a problem!" - detective

"I followed you guys from the park, and your all under arrest." - detective

"For what we didn't no nun" - Ryu

"You were the last people at Grandpal park tonight so I have to take you in for-" - detective

"Ryu!?" - detective

"Mhmm?" - Ryu tilts his head

"Ryu...Hasashi?" - detective starts approaching Ryu

"Uhmm...yeah, that's my name-" - Ryu

The detective hugs Ryu

"Oh God, your...your so big now I didn't even recognize you!" - detective

"What happened to you guys-" - detective

"Sorry...do I know you?" - Ryu

"...Of course you'd forget me, it's been eighteen years. I'm Benji, your father's best friend...and your supposed godfather." - detective

"...Wait, you...know my parents?" - Ryu

"Know them...I've known your dad every since grade school. We even finished college and became detectives together." - detective

Police radio messages the detective

"Uhmm...we kinda need to be somewhere, can we meet up later?" - Ryu

"Of course of course, here's my number and uh...call me, if you don't I'll just find you." - detective

"Ryu...thank God I found you, you don't know how long it's been." - detective as he hugs Ryu

"Ok, be safe you guys!" - detective

"Damn...everyone's family secrets are unraveling huh?" - Kai

"Heh..." - Ryu

"Aight let's go to this island already!" - Jin

They set sail

Somewhere else

Phone rings

"Hello?" - girl's voice

"Hello is this Coco Rodriguez?" - phone

"Speaking" - Coco

"Evening mam. We're sorry to inform you tonight but your father was reported K.I.A and has passed away due to a mission. On behalf of Kakumei no Jidai we humbly apologies for your loss and if you'd like us to handle the funeral-" - phone

Coco hangs up

Cuts to her packing up guns and ammunition in a duffel bag and proceeds to leave her apartment.

Somewhere somewhere else

"I heard Kenny finally bit the dust?" - voice

"Yeah...it's tragedy really" - Kokushibe

"The legendary Boogeyman dead at the hands of an eighteen years old kid with powers...hehe" - Kokushibe

"His memorial will be held by the organization tomorrow and the funeral's on Monday, and his daughter of course doesn't give a rat's ass." - voice

"Talk about holding a grudge, she'll have to get over it soon" - Kokushibe

"You gonna join the Governor's rescue mission, on Miku island?" - voice

"Nah, got too much money already" - Kokushibe

"Besides...my deshi (student) said this is a perfect field test for her." - Kokushibe

"You ready Miko?" - Kokushibe

"Yes sensei, I will make you proud!" - Miko

"I know you will. Always keep your comms on alright, and I'll be watching." - Kokushibe

Miko bows at him then leaves

"How come she isn't Prodigy already?" - voice

"Because not every other student is as talented as your little brother, Ichiro." - Kokushibe

Ichiro shakes his head

"And after this mission, she will become stronger, and she will surpass your brother, and the other Prodigies." - Kokushibe stares at Ichiro

"...Well, best of luck to her then" - Ichiro smirks

He leaves

On Mikurajima island

The Governor, Satoru Nijino, and his crew which consists of two bodyguards, Hide Ishida (male) and Rin Aoki (female), two days later since their expedition.

"Sir...we found the tomb!" - male voice

"Finally, after days of wandering around!" - Satoru Nijino

The tomb creaks open, revealing walls etched with ancient hieroglyphics and carvings from the earliest periods, and at its center, looming in silence—statues of the most unholy beings ever to haunt the earth: yokais.

Tomb door closes

"Shit the door shut us in!" - female voice

"Silence." - Satoru

The crew stares at him

"Do you not see this, the remnants of our history! It's beautiful. We must show this to the world, to our country." - Satoru

He halts for a moment and his gaze is drawn by an ancient Japanese text on the wall, and as his eyes are drawn even closer, he reads it.

The eclipse grants life, and mortals take it. Let the era of warfare be reborn—arise, Ōmagatoki (日食は生命を与え,人はそれを受け取る.戦乱の時代を再び蘇らせよ――立ち上がれ,大魔ヶ刻よ)

Suddenly the torches in the tomb go out and eveything becomes dead silent.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Silence

The tomb opens and all three of them walk out, but it's not the crew anymore...they've been possessed

"Ahh...the over realm" - Satoru in a distorted voice

Tomb closes

"Now, let us set free the rest of our...family" - Satoru
