Tsuchihara Falls
The fall of the Tsuchihara family began when Altar Boys Hiroshi and Hideyoshi Tsuchihara were born, Hiroshi being the older twin. Throughout their entire childhood, the Altar Boys were fighting. Hideyoshi would innocently be walking through the village, and Hiroshi would sneak up on him and attack from the shadows with a stick.
After the first few times, Hideyoshi learned to carry his own weapon, also a stick, and conceal it.
Despite this new development, Hiroshi's attack pattern remained the same; sneak up, follow, and attack. Therefore, Hideyoshi became specialized in detecting sneak attacks. More than once Hideyoshi turned and hit his brother first, to both of their surprise. As the years passed, both brothers perfected their individual techniques and would sometimes fight from dawn to dusk. More than once, the Tsuchihara twins would keep the entire village awake with the sounds of sparring. And just as many times, the village would band together and form a sneak attack, knocking out one of the twins so that the fighting would cease.
Even when the brothers were Cleansing for the Ritual and their weapons removed, they still found ways to fight. Hiroshi became particularly skilled and hand-to-hand combat, while Hideyoshi learned to use anything in the area as a weapon.
When both twins were at their sixteenth year, it was time for the Ritual. Neither of them fought each other or even looked at each other, instead appearing numb and moving rigidly. Hiroshi, looking completely blank, performed the ritual with no problems. It was only when Hideyoshi's body fell into the X that horror started to flow over his face.
Several minutes passed. Hiroshi started to tremble, fearing that Hideyoshi would not become a butterfly.
Then something amazing and horrible happened. Instead of a crimson butterfly emerging from the X, a completely alive and healthy Hideyoshi emerged! To this day, nobody knows what happened and why. (Among the graffiti was a theory scrawled on the side of the page. It basically proposed that Hideyoshi had annoyed the forces of the X so much that it brought him back to life and threw him out, partially just to get him away and partially as a punishment for the villagers.)
The Ritual was attempted again, and once more, Hideyoshi was thrown out of the X without a single mark on his neck. However, the second time there was a note attached to him saying "From X with love."
Even though Hiroshi was horrified at the experience and all thought of killing his brother, they began fighting again just weeks after the Ritual attempts. To stop their constant fighting, both of the twins were made into Mourners, and the Ritual duties fell to the young Azami and Akane Kiryu.
(The rest of the page was added recently.)
When the Repentance came, the X brought back the spirits of the long-dead Tsuchihara twins as part of the punishment. Similarly, Akane Kiryu and the Doll were brought back to terrify everyone. (See also: Creep the crap out of everyone.)
