[the camera attempts to refocus as if it had been long out of use… it eventually gains focus on an inert Tsurugi sprawled across a bench near the Fountain. Tsurugi appears to be dirty and in disarray. Tsurugi begins to stir.]

Why... why am I still alive? That blow from Tendou should have been fatal. I must be alive for some reason… or this must be the afterlife.
…This couldn’t be my same life. This doesn't look like Tokyo… unless I’m outside of it. Even so, Tendou would have never gone back on his promise… Wait… why does this place looks familiar...
[the sound of the phone beeping can be suddenly heard… Tsurugi notices the phone broadcasting him.]
It couldn’t be… I’m back in the City…
