The park is alive with movement—Lysander, Rhys, Maddox with his father. But on the hill, under a canopy of old trees, two figures stand in stark stillness: Kaito and Sora, older now, shadows deepening around them. You climb the slope and see the stone: 'Kenshin, 1967-2025'. Sora's shoulders tremble with silent tears. Kaito holds her, his own gaze fixed on the ground. They turn, your presence pulling them from their shared sorrow. Kaito: "Oh. It's you. Not... not really the best time." Sora: *A ragged breath.* "Kenshin... I still can't believe it." Kaito: "Shh. I'm right here. He's watching." You kneel in the damp grass and pull them into your arms. They cling to you, their grips desperate, as if you're the only hope left to hold back the flood.
