California, USA, January 15th, 1999.

It's a dark night covering the entire california countryside. All of it? Not exactly. On a mountaintop stands a glorious mansion that shines like a sun in the late hours of the night. Still, there's some dark energy coming out of it, suppressing the light.

In the mansion, behind a huge glass wall there is a throne. On the throne was a beautiful young woman. Nobody could told one thing: She was 40 years old. She has long purple hair, blood-red eye color, like her eyes are two sparkling rubies. On her knees with a concerned-looking doctor, a desperate couple of brothers and a huge, muscular boxer with a torn punching bag. „so would you be the ones who had the image to come before me with their pathetic requests just because you didn't like the fact that I had bought their land and chattels as worthless as their lives?" Asked she the philosophical question herself, and then rose up in the chair. It was time to live on her favorite activities: Humiliation. „Now, let me hear the stories about why I don't want what's already mine." Lillith Oono's words were so cold, even the warmest fire would have gone out. Yes, she is Makoto and Akira mother. Her eyes were condescending, and her face insensitive, as if she had never loved anyone in her life. First, the doctor stood up and spoke with worried eyes and voice. „ Ma'am Lillith! If I hear correctly, that after you bought the state hospital, you want to eliminate the patients and put them on the street. Please don't do this! There are plenty of them including patients who have no relatives as well as those who need continuous care! There are thirty patients on life support systems. If they are turned off, they will die!" It seemed in the doctor's eyes that he loved his patients and would have done everything he could to help others. However, she just looked at the doctor with an unflinching face and then spoke coldly „If the state didn't care about your patients, why would I, as an individual, do it? It's not my business, As for the thirty patients who are already at the gates of death, it is more merciful to let in." After the answer, the doctor's breath got stuck. His eyes looked blank into the darkness, with tears dripping from both sides of his face. He knelt motionless like the last knife that was thrust into his heart. Two guards dragged him out in front of the mansion. Lillith pointed to the brothers. They were farmers. Their hands showed signs of everyday hard work. There were times when they worked double triple shifts to feed the animals. The older brother spoke. „Please, pretty lady, don't buy up our farm. It's been in our family for generations.We couldn't take the animals anywhere. Outside the farm, we wouldn't have a place to live." To this the cold-looking lady, as if she had already counted on them, laughed and took out a book which she had thrown to the brothers. The book title was: How to start a new life? „You don't have to worry about the fate of the animals. I already sold them to a slaughterhouse that paid me good money. Actualy, not so much, but better, than nothing. Now that you have no burden on your shoulders, you can go wherever you want." The younger brother then took out a knife when he heard the woman reply."Oh, dare to attack me?" Asked Lillith, with her head turned to the side. So many attempts were made by the people who were disinherited to attack her, she was too lazy to count. „You got a big mouth, bitch with your big money! But if I stab you in the neck, try be tough after!" He went to stab her, but she twisted his loose and sent him to the ground with a gut punch. „Pull out this unfortunate worm immediately, before I use the knife on his neck or penis." "Noted Lillith, and sat back on her throne. Finally, the boxer stood in front of her. He was desperate because all his wealth and fond memories were his own gym. „Please, madam! I have nowhere else to go! My gym was all I had!" Despite his enormous muscles, he fell to his knees, with soft eyes, from which despair exerted itself. She suddenly smiled as if she had told a good joke. „How can I give back what I don't already have? Because the whole thing demolished tomorrow morning and replaced it with a shopping mall. But you know what? You can still take the bricks." Then she burst into a great laugh. He looked ahead with astonishment. It's like he's not looking at a person. He wasn't far from the truth. In the bourgeois circles, Lillith is known as the Demon, which she proudly took on. He was caught in anger, ran towards her and tried to punch the demon in her face. He believed that this would be more successful, as he had just won the New York Heavyweight Championship. But all of a sudden, he hit the floor with his back so hard, that almost broke his spine.
