18 [Semi-Accidental Voice]
[hurried footsteps are heard, then cut off abruptly. After a slight pause, there's another burst of motion, then it stops.]
Are you...can you hear me? Wake up...come on...dammit...Kid, please. Wake up. Get up, open your eyes, don't...no...
[Sano's breathing gets unsteady; his voice is hurt, confused, afraid.]
Who...who did this? Why would...how could...Koyata...
Please. Please, get up!
[The only sound for a long time is Sano hyperventilating. The recording times out.]

...This is Harada Sanosuke, Shinsengumi 10th Unit Captain. I'm reporting a death. Time of death is unknown...he suffered multiple wounds from a sharp, short weapon, and fatal trauma to the head...the only thing that makes sense is to call it murder. Victim is male, early teens, red hair and features like a fox...
[He trails off, unable to keep up the professionalism anymore.]
...Everyone, please be careful...
