TW// PTSD, mention of murder


They're sitting by the table, eating and drinking. Ai offers Shiro a glass of something.

SHIRO: No thank you. I'll stay with my grape jucie.

David looks at Akane. It looks like alcohol doesn't affect her.

DAVID: Let's have a drinking competiton!

TAGGI: Count me out.

MIRA: Me too.

SEI: I'll pass too.

Ai slams her drink on the table, clearly already drunk.

AI: Count me in!

AKANE: I'm in.


Time passes by and David and Ai don't look that good. Akane is fine.

SHIRO: Ai you had too much, just stop.

AI: Nnoo I'm f-finee.

Shiro holds her hand.

SHIRO: Please.

Ai looks at Shiros worried face.

AI: O-okay... But I can still d-dance.

SHIRO: Okay we can go dancing.

DAVID: I'm not done.

Akane smirks.

AKANE: Oh really?

SEI: David just admit it you lost.

DAVID: N-no!

AKANE: You can't win... We Vulmones are immune to alcohol.

DAVID: ... Why didn't y-you tell me?

Akane smiles stands up and goes somewhere. Sei follows her. Ai and Shiro dancing.

SHIRO: Are you sure you are okay?

AI: I'm f-finee.

Ai almost falls and Shiro catches them.

AI: S-sorry.

Shiro smiles.

SHIRO: It's okay!

Ai blushes notecing how close they are to her face. They make a portal on Shiros right side. Shiro turns to it.

SHIRO: Why did you-

Ai kisses her through the portal. Ai goes back and the portal disappears.

SHIRO: A-Ai... Why did you- you're to drunk!

AI: I may be... but my feeling don't change when I'm drunk.

They hear David scream. They look at him. David pushes the chair away.

DAVID: Don't touch me!

TAGGI: David?

David is sweating, shaking. He looks at his shaking hands.

DAVID: N-no... I shouldn't have drunk.

TAGGI: What do you mean?

DAVID: N-no, I don't want it to happen again... I don't want my parents to get hurt.

Taggi tries to get closer.

TAGGI: David, your parents are dead. They were killed.

DAVID: N-no. They were murdered! And do you know who murdered them?! Huh? Do you want to know!

TAGGI: Davy...

Tears start running down his face.

DAVID: It was me!
