CHAPTER 5( Yui x Reiji)

Scene: Outside the dorms. Yui cuts a rose off a bush.

Raito:- (Flashback) You were offered up to us as a sacrifice by the very church you have such faith in.

Yui:- That can't possibly be true.

Kanato:- Yui...

Yui:- Ah...

Kanato: I would like you to pick up those roses and follow me.

Yui: Huh?

Kanato: I don't like to be kept waiting.

Scene: In a cemetery. Yui follows Kanato with a bouquet of roses.

Yui: Ah...

What are we doing here?

Kanato stops in front of a grave.

Kanato: Graves are so deeply dark and full of the smell of death. Don't you think that's great?

I love graves. They're so cold and quiet, and indifferent to terror.

My mother lies here.

Yui: Your mother passed away?

Kanato: I killed her.

Yui: Huh?

Kanato: Would you believe that? Although it hardly matters.

Right, Teddy?

Please place those roses here.

Yui: Um, sure.

Yui places the bouquet at the foot of the grave.

Yui: Well, I'll be going now.

Yui begins to walk off.

Kanato: You are very self-serving.

Yui: Huh?

Kanato: I specially invited you here, but you leave the second it displeases you. You have a lot of nerve!

Kanato picks up the bouquet and begins hitting his mother's gravestone with it,

Yui: Stop it! You mustn't...

Kanato freezes.

Kanato: Don't order me around, you lousy mortal!

Yui: But this is your mother's grave, isn't it?

Kanato: What could you possibly understand about me?!

Yui: I'm sorry...

Kanato approaches Yui slowly.

Kanato: It's tiring when you apologize, so please don't!

Do you get a kick out of deceiving others?!

Yui takes a step back but trips over her own feet.

Yui: Ah... Ngh!

Kanato: Haha... Hahahaha!

That's incredible, Yui! You should see how pathetic you look!

Yui: Ngh...

Kanato: Now crawl around in the dirt more and cry like the pathetic girl you are.

Then I may forgive you. Hahahaha!

Yui: I'm... sorry...

Kanato: You are very sweet.

That's enough.

Kanato pushes Yui to the ground.

Yui: Ah...!

Kanato?

Kanato acts as if he's about to bite Yui.

Yui: Stop!

Kanato: I forgot... If mortal women aren't given a kiss before being pleasured, do they become angry?

Yui: What are you talking about, Kanato?

Kanato: You women are such a pain.

Yui: Stop it!

Kanato kisses Yui. They break away, and Kanato bites Yui's neck. After he stops, he sniffs her neck.

Kanato: You smell like something I remember.

Haha... Hahahaha!

Why is that? You smell so familiar to me.

Kanato bites Yui's neck again.

Yui: N-No... That hurts... Kanato...

Kanato: Yes, I forgot.

Kanato combs his fingers through Yui's hair.

Kanato: I should make it feel good, shouldn't I?

Kanato bites Yui's chest.

Yui: Ah...!

Kanato: You're so delicious...

Yui: No... Kanato...

Please, stop...

Kanato: I won't let you escape.

Scene: Sometime later. Yui walks around the outside of the dorm. Richter watches her.

Subaru: Why are you here, Richter?

Richter: Won't you call me "uncle", Subaru?

Subaru: Shut up and get lost.

A strong wind blows.

Subaru: Tch.

Richter: The awakening will manifest without awaiting its time.

Richter disappears.

Subaru: Ngh...

"The awakening will manifest"?

Scene: Later that night, inside the dorms. Yui hesitates to open a door.

Yui: Ah...

Yui goes into another room. Reiji sits on a chair, his breathing somewhat irregular. Yui approaches him and puts her hand on his shoulder. He wakes up.

Reiji: What are you doing here?

Yui pulls back.

Yui: Ah... Pardon me.

Reiji: I can't believe I was actually woken up by the smell of your blood.

Yui: I'm sorry.

Reiji: It's far preferable to the nightmare I was having.

So, can I help you?

Yui: I came because I heard you moaning.

Reiji: Please wait a moment. I will make tea.

Reiji prepares a cup of tea for himself.

Yui: Um, I...

Reiji: I have completely neglected to inform you of your own position.

Yui: Huh?

Reiji: However, I did not imagine that it required explanation.

Did you honestly believe that I would make tea for you?

Please stop being so conceited.

It is very presumptuous.

I will allow you to enjoy the aroma.

Yui turns to look around Reiji's room.

Yui: So, this must be your laboratory.

Does anyone else use it?

Like maybe Shuu?

Reiji: Just hearing that name makes my ears feel unclean.

Yui: Why do you hate him so much?

Reiji gets up from his chair.

Reiji: You do not need to know that.

Reiji walks to his window and remembers a scene from his past.

Reiji: I will make an exception and share my tea with you.

Reiji pours a cup of tea for Yui.

Reiji: Be my guest.

Yui: Thank you very much.

Yui takes a sip of tea but drops the cup and gets sick.

Yui: Ngh...!

Wh-What...?

Reiji: There is no need to worry. It will not endanger your life.

However, I don't like how it has made you numb.

I will have to make it all over again.

Reiji takes Yui's face and opens her mouth.

Yui: Ngh...

Reiji: Now drink this.

Reiji pours something in Yui's mouth. When she drinks it, she falls to the ground.

Reiji: It is impolite to cough so openly.

What is wrong with you?

Things that have been broken must be cleaned up immediately.

Yui gets up and finds a giant cut on her palm.

Yui: Ah...

Reiji takes Yui's hand.

Yui: Ah... Ah...!

Reiji: I don't want to give you the wrong

impression.

Much like this cup, I have no interest in things with imperfections. That is true.

However, you infuse the air with such a sweet aroma.

Reiji drinks the blood from Yui's hand.

Yui: Ugh...

Reiji: Ngh... What is this?

Reiji gets up and turns away from Yui. He takes his remaining glove off.

Reiji: I have soiled myself with your blood.

Yui: But that's not my...

Reiji: I do not wish to hear your excuses.

Yui: Ah...

Reiji: On your feet.

Reiji turns to Yui.

Yui: Ah... Ahh...

Yui begins backing away as Reiji glares at her. He drops his glove and pushes Yui into the bookcase.

Yui: Ngh!

Reiji...: Please don't.

Reiji: Who in the world will hear you when you scream?

Yui: No!

Reiji: Mortals are nothing but containers of blood.

Despite your position as worthless containers, I wish to give you more pleasure than anyone.

Here.

Reiji bites into Yui's neck.

Yui: Ngh... Ugh...

Yui pushes Reiji away.

Yui: Stop it!

Reiji traps Yui against the bookshelf again.

Yui: Ah...!

Reiji: Know your place, human.

I will not tolerate disobedience!

Learn to fear me, more and more!

Shall I bandage your wound?

I will bind it so tightly that your blood flow will be cut off, and your hand will rot and fall off at the wrist.

How will you scream then?

The very idea makes me feel happy.

Yui faints.

Reiji: Your face will distort with remorse and regret.

You will suffer, and finally, crying and screaming... you will die.

Beatrix: (Flashback) So, I have finally... witnessed your abilities with my own eyes.

(Flashback) I always held on to the hope... that the one to kill me... would be you.

(Flashback) I am satisfied.

Reiji: (Flashback) You would die smiling in the end?

(Flashback) No... I will not allow it. I cannot allow it!

(Flashback) I have no intention of giving you, my mother, a peaceful death!

(Flashback) How could I be expected to allow such a thing?

Reiji cradles Yui's body.

Reiji: I will not allow it.
