Erinnerst du dich noch an den Tag an dem du mir...?"
Ring 1: Prologue
"That man...he's...!"
It was raining heavily that day when that incident happened.
A pair of green orbs slowly fluttered open. The room was blurry; he could not see, but the barest amount of light stung his eyes. He could hear sounds around him, although not very clear. His throat was hurt and aching…as if it was burning his throat terribly. The smell and taste of metallic slowly filled his nose and lips.
It was a blood.
Whose blood was it?
How long had he been sleeping?
He blinked his eyes weakly, squinting.
Where was he?
Nothing seemed to be familiar for him.
He tried to turn his head, but it felt like there was something heavy weight pressing his head. He tried to speak, but he couldn't utter a single word out as there was an oxygen mask covering his mouth. He could feel that something was being injected into his arm; something sticky was placed on his skins, a sooth movement on his head, as someone's hand was gently stroke his black hair back.
Then suddenly he felt that he was being lifting up; heavy footsteps running and voices were mixed around him again before the sound of door being opened was heard.
"Gino?" a deep, masculine voice called. "Gino, can you hear me?"
A rough, but gentle hand grabbed his.
'Who? This voice…'
"Gino, if you can hear me, please squeeze my hand. You can do that, right?"
'Wha...? My hand…?'
He fought back with unconsciousness that was pulling him. Soon, the lights became blur than before and before he knew, the darkness had surrounding him.
But the same gentle hand held his.
Tightly.
The air was so silent that if the needle fell down, it would echo throughout the room.
The whole members of the First Division of Public Safety Bureau were currently in the office room. Only their movements from chairs broke the silence, and each of them held a worried look on their face.
Tsunemori Akane, the current leader for the first Division and one of the Inspectors, sat silently while clasping her hands tight. She looked calm, however everyone could see that her eyes obviously shown the nervousness that was boiling inside her. Sat next to her were the new recruitment Inspector Shimotsuki Mika –a young girl who's still a minor. Auburn hair that was tied to her right side was damp, and it could be seen that her clothes were half-drenched due to the heavy rain that fell that day. She looked pale and weak, and a trace of shock can be seeing on her eyes.
"How is this thing…happen…to him?" Hikage muttered bitterly, one of the new Enforcers of Division One of MHWPSB who was leaning against the wall, as he lowered his head, hiding his emotions under his bangs. "Right in front of our eyes too…"
Nobody said a thing.
A young man in early 20s was sitting next to other Enforcers; he was feeling sick in his stomach as he glanced over the other Inspector who was holding a blank look on its face. It was as if the said person wasn't worried over the poor man's condition. Mozutani Shinobu, an Inspector from Kyoto whose group was summoned to Tokyo as additional recruitment for the MHWPSB's Division 1, sighed as he leaned against the wall. His arms were folded on his chest, staring ahead worriedly. From time to time, he was mentally shaking his head as he silently reprimanded himself for feeling guilty.
Guilty for not being there to help him when he's in danger…
When the ER's light was off and the door was opened, revealed a doctor and two women, all of the people who were waiting at the lounge area immediately went on toes towards the doctor. Knowing the questions these people wanted to ask, the doctor raised his hand as a sign of silent. He secretly glanced at the lone figure that stood still under the shadow, unmoved, before proceed to tell the members of MHWPSB's Division One members.
"Sensei, how's Gino-san…?" Asked Akane as she looked at the old man in front of her.
"Kimura-sensei said that Gino-san's life is spared," The only female Enforcer Kunizuka Yayoi, announced, striding out from the ER door. "Although it can't be said for his injuries and the effects of them..." her eyes trailed to the Enforcers and officers, before noticed the figure had slowly walked out from the shadow, as she continued saying. "We fear that he might be suffers from..."
"Heavy injuries and psychological trauma due to torturing and sexual assult?"
Everyone's eyes went immediately to the voices that appeared to be a woman. A woman with layered black hair that reached upper shoulders stood in front of them. Her left eye was bandaged, as well as her injured body. Her other eye; black like a starless night, very, very dark, stared sharply to the doctor for his confirmation. Kimura-sensei –the doctor in charge wiped his glasses before he wore it again and answered her.
"Yes, you're right Mozutani-san," He said. "How did you know that he's been harm like that?"
"Don't judge me like I'm the one who did that to him," She said, sternly. "We saw what the perpetrator had done to him, right in front of our very eyes!"
"Nee-san…" Shinobu said to the woman who apparently was his elder sister. She murmured silently as she said, "Did you see all of his injuries?"
"Which part?"
"Anywhere. Did his wrists bruise badly? Like someone grab them with force?"
"Yes, that's correct," Said the doctor, shocked. "There are also some internal injuries which his right ribs broken –three of them, and several bruises all over his body…"
"Why do these sounds like a wild sex activity?" Asked Hikage, only earned a smack on his head by Yayoi and Shion. "So…there's more?"
"Yes, but I don't think it's appropriate to say everything here…"
"Did his left shoulder have some mark in a shape of oval with the symbol of Maat (1)?" A question that shocking not only the Inforcers and Inspectors but the doctor as well.
"H-ho-how did you know that?" Asked the old doctor.
Mizutani growled as she walked to the nearest wall and punched it with all her might, causing the wall cracked immediately. Shinobu eyed his sister worriedly, and was very shock when he heard the words she murmured afterward;
"That man…He's back…!"
HINTS OR EXPLANATIONS:
1) Maat Symbol –it was the ancient Egyptian concept of truth, balance, order, law, morality, and justice. Maat was also personified as a goddess regulating the stars, seasons, and the actions of both mortals and the deities, who set the order of the universe from chaos at the moment of creationthis. Pharaohs are often depicted with the emblems of Maat to emphasize their role in upholding the laws of the Creator.
From the conversation between Mozutani and Kimura-sensei, it was confirmed that the symbol was mark on Gino's left shoulder.
Finally, first chapter done. I had to read lots of other authors' stories so that I could make my own. This is my first time in Psycho-Pass fandom so I'm sorry if this not satisfying everyone.
Aaarggghh~! Yeah I know, even I'm not very satisfy with the anime's ending! Damn! It's a very complicate story so please read and review! This is just a prologue; the next chapter will be the start of everything.
Meet again in the next chapter.
