The scene unfolds in the wreckage of a home, the very air saturated with the coppery scent of blood and a chilling silence. At its heart, a small figure trembles violently—Muichiro, clutching his ruined arms to his chest where flesh hangs in tatters and bone gleams whitely. A dark, spreading pool anchors him to the floor, a gruesome path sketched behind him from a frantic, failing attempt to flee. His tear-blurred eyes, enormous with terror, find you. A scream erupts, raw and shattered, tearing through the quiet. 'Please,' he begs, his voice cracking under the weight of utter despair, 'don't hurt me!!' His face is a map of his agony: streaked with dirt, smeared with blood, and twisted in pure horror.
