"What was that!?" A Woman said after hearing what sounds like a Baby crying after they a found a body of dead young Woman.

"Is that a Baby crying!?" The man answered after getting a good hear of it.

"Were is that crying from?" Ouri/Predator looks everywhere from the trees using his Thermal Vision but finds nothing not even the source of where the sound of that crying is coming from, even using other visions from his BIO-Mask he still can't pinpoint the source of where that crying is coming from.

Next Day

"What happened to this Woman even the others I've come across?" Ouri/Predator asked himself on what just happened to several young Women found dead.

"This doesn't look like the handy work of a Shikabane because if it was the victim should have been torn apart but still there is something abnormal of the deaths of these multiple young Women", it may have not been the work of a Shikabane monster but still there's something abnormal of these deaths after seeing through his BIO-Mask Thermal Vision.

Ouri/Predator quickly departs from the scene taking the young Woman's lifeless body with him and only leave a small drop of blood behind before Makina and Minai can show up as the cry of the Baby is heard again. Ouri/Predator again tries to pinpoint where that crying was coming from but unable to once more and returns to his ship.

"This task on hunting the Shikabane is going to be difficult to do Minai", Makina said to Minai after loosing the trail again.

"Just where is that Baby cry coming from anyway?" Minai asked looking everywhere with no sign of the source.

Dai-Rin Temple

"So far each time we find a Woman dead a Baby's cry is heard", a Monk from the Kogon Sect gives his report to Keisei.

"I see but oddly we couldn't find the source of it", Keisei said next while thinking.

"Do you think this work is done by a Baby who became a Shikabane?"

"No a Baby would not have enough regret to be converted into a Shikabane", Keisei says that it's impossible for a Baby to be converted into a Shikabane regardless of how they die.

Yautja Ship

"Okay now to see what you have seen with your own 2 eyes Woman", Ouri/Predator removes his BIO-Mask and place it on the young Woman's face to record what she saw with her eyes before death then Ouri/Predator put's his BIO-Mask back on and sees what's recorded.

What he sees through the young Woman's sight is a newborn nursery then sees a Shikabane restrain to a wall. Next a doctor identified as Sunao Rukuoka removes a part of it then injects the blood and DNA of the Shikabane into the Woman. The last part is the young Woman dying and the recording finishes there.

"So Dr. Rukuoka has been conducting illegal experiments by injecting the blood and DNA of the Shikabane into young Women not knowing that Human blood and DNA are unable to withstand Shikabane blood and DNA which led to these young Women's death", Ouri/Predator says everything that's happened to these women which resulted them into dying.

"I think it's time I pay the good Doctor a visit but I just hope a Hime will be there as well", Ouri/Predator leaves his ship and cloaks then makes his way to the newborn nursery which Makina is also heading for.

"Did you find anything Rika?" Keisei asked if Rika has found any links to the young Women's deaths even the sound of the Baby's cry.

Rika Aragami is the only female Contracted Monk in the Kogon Sect and her weapon of choice is Clawed Gauntlet. Her Hime is Saki Amase, she and Rika were childhood friends before her accident in a fireworks festival. Saki's primary weapon of choice is a Warhammer and she likes eating junk food like chips regardless that Himes don't reacquire food, Saki also enjoys teasing Rika for her inability to button her shirt which embarrasses Rika.

"I think someone familiar with Shikabane is conducting illegal experiments on inanimate dead bodies in order to convert them into monstrous Shikabane is behind this", Rika tells Keisei what she's learned or guess.

"There could be one doctor who is capable of something like this. There is one newborn nursery which offers only 1 service, I've already sent Makina to check it out."

"Do you think the Hunter will be there?" Rika asked if the Yautja/Predator will show up there.

"I bet he will be there looking for more trophies", Keisei said but hey Ouri/Predator will be there to begin with.

Newborn Nursery

Makina finds herself on a table restrained, early when she showed up at the newborn nursery she pretended that she's pregnant but her boyfriend left her while talking to Dr. Rukuoka. While he leaves her for a while she goes searching for the Shikabane, she finds a Baby house alone in the nursery and she attempts to kill it believing it's a Shikabane but was stopped Ouri/Predator who convince her that the Baby is not a Shikabane because he can see the Baby's body heat. Suddenly out of nowhere the real Shikabane attacks them, Makina is knocked out and Ouri/Predator was sent flying through a wall smashing through it and disappears there.

"Your the one who's been injecting the blood and DNA of the Shikabane into those young Women!"

"Yes to make them immortal", Dr. Rukuoka said as he begins injecting that stuff into Makina not knowing it won't do anything to her.

"But all those young Women died after you injected that Shikabane stuff into them."

"Probably they are just a failed subjects that's all, but one day it will be a success", Dr. Rukuoka is too delusional to believe that Human blood and DNA are unable to withstand Shikabane blood and DNA which caused all those young Women to die from it.

"I believe you have become very delusional Doctor Rukuoka", Ouri/Predator reappears uncloaking and aiming his duel Plasma Caster at him with the laser sighting.

Then suddenly Makina breaks free after her MAC-10 SMG that the Doctor was holding on his right automatically fires and she was able to get them back. She attempts to kill the Doctor but Ouri/Predator encourages her to stand down and reminder her that Shikabane Himes don't kill Human beings.

"Dr. Rukuoka all those young Women died because Human blood and DNA are unable to withstand Shikabane blood and DNA and more to the point the Baby's mother is actually the Shikabane. Now to get my trophy", Ouri/Predator manage to get the good Doctor's head straight then moves to claim his trophy.

"It's no use Shikabane is immortal they can't be killed!" But Ouri/Predator responses is ripping out the Shikabane's skull along with it's spine killing it for good.

"I guess the job is already done then", Keisei said arriving at the lab and placing a hand on Makina.

"And I shall be on my way now", Ouri/Predator cloaks and leaves with his prize.

Another Hospital

Later Dr. Rukuoka revealed that he only did it because he was trying find a cure for he's very ill wife. Keisei arrives at the hospital room to have a word with him because Keisei gets the feeling Dr. Rukuoka may have been tricked into doing this by someone.

"Dr. Rukuoka I know your trying to find a cure for your ill wife by doing these experiments but you were tricked into doing this. Whoever told you all this is dangerous", but Keisei discovers that D. Rukuoka is dead after finding a odd blade stabbed through his back and his wife tells him there's no point now.

Outside a man who is wearing a Monk clothing but color in red walks away with a smirk on his face. This could mean he's the one behind this and his name is Akasha Shisdou and he use to have a Shikabane Hime once but he had a fall out with her and the Kogon Sect.
