[He opens the box, the box has a silver chalice adorned with jewels]

[Shiki and Mikiya are watching TV on the street]
KNKnews Anchorman : [On TV] ... People start to complain about the failure of the police to stop the continuous murders of this homicidal maniac. Investigators are examining the files from four years ago and...
Shiki Ryogi : It's a homicidal maniac, Mikiya.
Mikiya Kokutou : Is called that way because has more than ten victims. but even so, Calling it that way is not going too far?
Shiki Ryogi : No, it's well said
[Mikiya is surprised]
Shiki Ryogi : Anyone whose is behind all this can't be anything but a homicidal maniac. The offender will be glad for be called that way. The homicidal maniacs don't need a reason. The victims were attacked at random. So, this one has not killed anyone.
Mikiya Kokutou : This murderer has not killed anyone?
Shiki Ryogi : Slaughter and assassination are two different things. Do you remember that, Kokutou? You can only kill a person in life.
Mikiya Kokutou : Just one person?
Shiki Ryogi : Well... Anyway...
[Changing the subject]
Shiki Ryogi : Let's eat. I heard you took Azaka to a fancy Japanese restaurant after the incident in Reien.
Mikiya Kokutou : [sighs] Azaka...
Shiki Ryogi : And interestingly that restaurant is a place I always I wanted to go.
[Joking]
Shiki Ryogi : That was the first time I wanted to kill Azaka.
Shiki Ryogi : I guess I have no choice. Ok. Come on, take me to the resturant you want.
Shiki Ryogi : [Taking him by the arm] That's the attitude!

[while Mikiya remembers what happened in 1996]
Shiki Ryogi : [as SHIKI, on top of Mikiya while is turning her knife on his neck] Kokutou, say something, KOKUTOU!
Mikiya Kokutou : I... I don't want to die
Shiki Ryogi : But... I want to kill you.
[Hesitating]
Shiki Ryogi : Why?
[Souren Araya emerges from the shadows, Shiki lifts her dagger and instead of attacking Mikiya, she looks sidewards and attacks to Souren]
Souren Araya : Fool! You have disappointed me!
-
Souren Araya : [after repelling the Shiki's attacks that leaves him badly injured] Can not you kill me? Not appropriate if you intend to kill for a living. But you are trying to kill for escape. Do not underestimate yourself, you are part of a person. Live like one and end as one. The conflict spiral is the right end for you.
Shiki Ryogi : [Seeing her hands covered in Souren's blood] I...
[Runs off]
Mikiya Kokutou : [Following Shiki in her flight] Shiki!
Souren Araya : Is too early to destroy them.
[Souren disappears into the shadows]
Mikiya Kokutou : [Voice Over] At that time, I decided to stay with her instead of going home alone. I still don't know if I did the right thing.
-
Shiki Ryogi : [Realizing she is cornered by four assailants] OK, You wanna have fun, Eh? I will make you feel as good as you want.

Lio Shirazumi : Finally we meet, Shiki Ryogi.
[Wearing a Kimono, a leather jacket and a haircut same as Shiki's]
Shiki Ryogi : I know you. You are...
[Lio begins to attack her, she defends herself]
Lio Shirazumi : Hey, how strange. That's all what you do? Shiki Ryogi.
-
Lio Shirazumi : [after falling to the ground] Why? Why don't you go serious? You're completely differently than you were four years ago. You could have killed me before if you wanted... But you're not trying to go far.
[Trying to stand up]
Lio Shirazumi : I need you desperately. I wanted to see you because I have not much time left. Everything I did it for you... how I killed people, how I left the bodies...
[Deranged]
Lio Shirazumi : ...In order to you knew it was me.
Shiki Ryogi : What are you saying?
Lio Shirazumi : I thought you'd remember what happened four years ago if I did that.
[Desperate]
Lio Shirazumi : But you kept ignoring me.
[laughing involuntarily]
Lio Shirazumi : Instead, It had a different effect.
[to Shiki]
Lio Shirazumi : Yes I'm a serial manic. I had no name, but the society put it on me. It's like a glove.
[Shiki is surprised]
Lio Shirazumi : I was so happy to have fulfilled their expectations last week
[Approaching to Shiki]
Lio Shirazumi : A serial manic must kill people, because it is expected of him, right?
-
Shiki Ryogi : [Turning her back to Lio] I've already said before, right? You do not interest me. Just wanted to confirm.
Lio Shirazumi : [Desperate] Lie!Lie!Lie!Lie!
[Jumping to a fence]
Lio Shirazumi : As evidence of that, your eyes are always looking at my death.
[Shiki turns to look at him, Shiki's POV looking at his lines of death]
Lio Shirazumi : You don't have to hold it up, Shiki Ryogi. You came here because your desire asked so, right?
[Challenging]
Lio Shirazumi : You followed me here because you want to kill me, right? Come on, kill me.
[Shiki ignores him and starts to leave]
Lio Shirazumi : I see... So you're saying that's not enough to make you come back? Well, I have to kill the motive!
[Shiki stops]
Lio Shirazumi : Who holds you back. Then all will end.
[laughing maniacally]
Shiki Ryogi : [Shiki goes to attack him] Who...
[Severing the Lio's left arm]
Shiki Ryogi : ... is going to kill who?
-
Mikiya Kokutou : [Answering the phone in Shiki's apartment] Hello?
[nobody answers]
Mikiya Kokutou : You're Shiki, right?
Shiki Ryogi : Moron! Where have you been? you know there's danger outside, right? Nah, it's fine as long as you're well. Stay in Touko's office for a while. that's all
Mikiya Kokutou : [Worried] Shiki, where are you?
Shiki Ryogi : It's none of your business.
Mikiya Kokutou : Yes that's my business. You go after the murderer, right?
Shiki Ryogi : Yes
Mikiya Kokutou : No, Shiki, Come home. You shouldn't kill him.
Shiki Ryogi : [after two seconds of silence] Who should not be killed?
Mikiya Kokutou : Maybe we can barely save him now. Please Find him and...
Shiki Ryogi : [Interrupting him] Did you see to Shirazumi?
Mikiya Kokutou : Yes
Shiki Ryogi : Find Him? Are you crazy?
[sighs]
Shiki Ryogi : I understand, what must I do? Now I have no reason to forgive him.
Mikiya Kokutou : [Desperately] Shiki, No, you must not kill him.
Shiki Ryogi : I refuse. I have no intention of letting my prey go. Is an adversary of shit I have not seen in a while.
Mikiya Kokutou : But... but still. For many crimes he has committed, the murder is still the worst for him.
Shiki Ryogi : I'm sick of listening to your generalizations, Kokutou. Lio Shirazumi has killed too many people. So...
Mikiya Kokutou : [Interrupting her] No one deserves to be killed.
Shiki Ryogi : It's too late for him. Is a freak.
Mikiya Kokutou : Is the same, Shiki, Go home.
[Shiki does not respond]
Mikiya Kokutou : Shiki!
[a moment of silence]
Mikiya Kokutou : Shiki, If you kill him... I will not forgive you.
Shiki Ryogi : [after two seconds of silence] I'm sorry, I have to.
Mikiya Kokutou : [Worried] Why?
Shiki Ryogi : Because I'm a homicidal maniac, just like him.
Mikiya Kokutou : You're different. I mean, you have not even killed anyone.
Shiki Ryogi : I have not killed anyone yet because I keep getting lucky. But that does not change the fact. I have noticed something, Mikiya. four years ago, I was about to kill. because SHIKI was a personality that only knew the murder. But that's it. SHIKI only knew about the murder but did not mean that he liked kill. Since SHIKI died, I've been wanting to kill although he no longer existed. In the end, who wanted to kill was not the SHIKI who died, But the Shiki who survived. So I can not... I can't go home. Don't wait for me.
-
Mikiya Kokutou : [Still on the phone] You're wrong, Shiki. You said that you can only kill one person in life. You value this thought and, moreover, you know the pain of killing more than anyone. You will not kill anyone. You have not killed anyone yet because you do not stop to get lucky? COME ON! Now you should have out of luck. You have always chosen to repress this need. People have different preferences. Yours just happens to be killer. Last summer at Broad Bridge you told me that your need to kill was not as bad as you thought. I was convinced because I saw you smile when you told me. You will not kill anyone. You have endured so far, so you should be able to do in the future.I'm sure!
Shiki Ryogi : How that are you sure? How will you know something that even I know, Kokutou?
Mikiya Kokutou : Because... You're good.
Shiki Ryogi : You'll never change... You know right? SHIKI hated that part of you.
Mikiya Kokutou : Shiki, no, I...
[Shiki hangs up the phone. She made the phone call from Mikiya's apartment]

[Recalling the events from 1996]
Shiki Ryogi : [Voice Over] It was the dream of Shiki and SHIKI... My self and my other self. It's just a painful dream that I can never have.
Shiki Ryogi : [as SHIKI] Why? It hurts to be with you. You show me all I can never have, and you make me feel insecure. So I have to kill you.
Mikiya Kokutou : But SHIKI...
Shiki Ryogi : I MUST KILL YOU! But I can't. You are our dream.
Mikiya Kokutou : Dream?
Shiki Ryogi : If I can't make you disappear... I will have to disappear.
[She runs and Mikiya chases her, she stops at a crossroads]
Shiki Ryogi : [Voice Over] "Thanks, I can't kill you". Those were the last words from SHIKI's mind. SHIKI, who was interested in the murders... could not even say those words to him.
[In slow motion, SHIKI smiles at Mikiya, then she falls back]
Shiki Ryogi : Is a bit sad...
[SHIKI is hit by a incoming car at high speed]
-
Lio Shirazumi : [Seeing Shiki walking away] Are you going to abandon me? , I killed and I've done all this for you!. I understand, are you going to return with Mikiya, Ryogi? Then you don't need to go, he's here.
[Shiki stops]
Shiki Ryogi : [Towards Lio] You...
Lio Shirazumi : [Throwing her dagger stained with Mikiya's blood] You can keep it. Sorry for the stains.
-
Shiki Ryogi : [Voice Over] Kokutou, I was happy to have you there smiling. I was happy to have you there walking with me. You smiled and you said that we would end up in the same place. I've always wanted someone to tell me those words. Those were wonderful days.
[Dropping tears from her eyes]
Shiki Ryogi : Thanks, but sorry. I know I'll lose everything. But still... But still. I can't forgive him for having killed you.
[Use her dagger to kill Lio Shirazumi, then she falls unconscious]
Shiki Ryogi : [Voice Over] It doesn't matter, I can't go home with this look. You would scold me for come home covered in mud. But you're still waiting for me. I went through those wonderful days... but now seem quite unreal.
-
Mikiya Kokutou : [after spending several months in the hospital] So... Then don't you come to visit me? Not even once?
Shiki Ryogi : Azaka got angry with me. She said she would kill me if I showed up at the hospital. So I couldn't go.
Mikiya Kokutou : Well, that's a good reason.
-
[last lines]
Shiki Ryogi : [Voice over, while she walks with Mikiya, helding hands together along the path with white cherry trees blossom] I didn't want a knife or anything else. I just wanted to hold his hand. I don't think release him anymore, no matter what happens in the future. And so my story ends here, I've accepted who I am and who I was and now I will live my life.
