Blood, Love, and Revenge. All in one.. taking place within his apartment.
A girl, dead from the side against the wall, A beast beheaded by an axe as it's blood splatters around the walls.
A gut filled with grief, with heartbreak, and resentment. As he stands over the beast he has beheaded.. the same beast that has ended his lover's life.
Emptiness.
A negative kind of emotion or feeling where the person can feel disconnected, hollow or emotionally drained from a tragic event.
At the graveyard.. pouring rain above him. Nothing but total emptiness and heartbreak. He stands, looking over his lover's grave.. no one else around but him.
"Sheena.. Why..? Why did this world had to take you away too?"
"We had everything we ever wanted.. but fate decided we had too much."
- A man in suit approaches him..
(?) : "I'm sorry for your loss.."
- He turns towards the man wearing a suit.. holding an umbrella.
"Who are you..?"
He replies..
(?) : "I'm with Beast Safety Control, my team was the one that had investigated your home about the attack."
(?) : "I'm truly sorry for your loss, Shiro."
- He looks away from the man..
SHIRO : "I never understand.."
- The man looked confused.
SHIRO : "Fate always ends up taking everything away from me."
- The man walks forward..
(?) : "We live in a world of chaos.. where man-eating beasts exists that ends the lives of our loved ones."
(?) : "Such forces of our world are too strong that us human's only choice is to prevent or avoid it."
- Shiro looks at the man. Eyes with no kind of feeling, but only emptiness.
(?) : "Please find closure, and peace for your own. The only thing to worry about for now is your own safety.."
- The man walks away.. before turning his head back towards Shiro.
(?) : May your lover rest in piece.
- The man walks off.
Shiro stands over her grave for a few more minutes as the rain grows stronger.
...
He heads back to his apartment.. as he walks in seeing all the blood that was once there, cleaned by the Beast Safety Control during their investigation. He remembers the noise and light Sheena would bring within their home.. He'd see remnants of Sheena.. remembering the times he'd see her cook in the kitchen, how she'd always greet Shiro once he's home, and all in all her total energy that remains within Shiro's head, lingering everywhere around him.
He sits by the living room sofa.. with emptiness. He curls himself up in a ball sitting position.. as he covers his face, beginning to tear up.
"Sheena.. Sheena.."
"I wish your presence stayed.. At least in our apartment."
...
It's been a few days since Sheena's death. Shiro has been depressed.. and empty.. he's back to living alone again, just like he grew up. The apartment is always empty now.
"I'd like to drop out."
(RECEPTIONIST) : "Shiro..? You'd like to dropout..?"
SHIRO : "I'm sure of my decision."
(RECEPTIONIST) : "I-.. I can't make that happen.."
(RECEPTIONIST) : "I know you're down over Sheena's death.. but that doesn't mean you'd throw everything away just for her."
SHIRO : "I know. But it's my decision.. and I'll be dropping out of my education."
(RECEPTIONIST) : Sighs.. "I'll do what I can."
SHIRO : "Thank you."
(RECEPTIONIST) : "I'm sorry for your loss."
- Shiro nodded.. before he leaves the school building.
...
"How much would these sell..?"
(PAWNSHOP OWNER) : "Geez, kid.. This is a lot."
SHIRO : "How much?"
(PAWNSHOP OWNER) : "Maybe.. 30,000 Yen for one box..?"
(PAWNSHOP OWNER) : "You have 3 boxes you're willing to sell.. So I'd pay.. maybe 85,000 Yen for all of it."
SHIRO : "Deal."
- The pawnshop owner hands him the envelop full of the money..
(PAWNSHOP OWNER) : "Great doing business with you, kid."
- Shiro nodded.. before leaving.
...
"I'm moving out.."
(OTP Landlord) : "So suddenly..?"
SHIRO : "Yes."
(OTP Landlord) : "Well.. I'll need a 2week pay for your rent.. and you can move out.."
SHIRO : "I'll send it over to your name.
(OTP Landlord) : "Why are you moving out though..? It's so sudden.."
(OTP Landlord) : "Is it cause of Sheena's death..?"
SHIRO : "It's none of your business."
- Shiro ends the call..
Escape
The action of leaving your life's responsibilities and importance to runaway or start a new life.
Shiro packs his things, his clothes, his devices, and some food as he prepares to runaway from his current life.
"I don't have anything left in my life anymore.. My only option is to runaway."
He loads his car with his packed things.. He heads back to the apartment and takes a picture of him and Sheena together, before leaving, he looks back at the apartment as it is all empty with not much left aside for some furnitures as he then locks the door and leaves the key under it's doormat.
He starts up his car.. as he heads on his way towards Chiba City.. where he will start a new life, a city life.
