I think there's something! (a man is tied up inside the hourglass.) menou (shaking) : father... father..... (crying) audience : father? (recca is very serious) domon : what? that guy is her father? no way! kagero : no, it's true. and that old man is holding a very dangerous madougu... it's name is mugen. (there's a crystal on genjuro's staff with the kanji that means illusion) it has the power to shrink cells, with its power, it can minimize large objects. it got its name because it's able to shrink the enemy, and make the master himself disappear just like a dream. recca : it's the first time I've seen the power of genjuro's madougu... this old guy is such an asshole. he dared to use mugen on a defenseless person. genjuro : menou, do you want to save your father? then fight him! yanagi : that's so mean... menou : ......... (determined) I'm not fighting anymore... genjuro : what? (audience in shock) menou : I've been forced on to the battlefield for my father... but I can't kill, I just can't do it! recca is a good person! I can't kill him! (genjuro puts down the hourglass, sand begins to fall on the man inside) genjuro : you brought this on to yourself, menou... just five more minutes. when all the sand falls down, your father is dead! if you want to save your father, continue the fight! kill him! you don't have much time! kill! kill! kill! kill! kill! kill! (etc...) kill him! menou (running toward genjuro) : no! dad! domon (jump up) : that fucking old goat, I can't stand it anymore! koganei, let's go get the hourglass! (koganei jumps up with him) menou : ah! (blocked by something) domon : uh! (him too) huh? we can't go through! it's a barrier! neon (on the other side) : there's a barrier dividing the whole arena. no one is allowed to disrupted the tornament. fujimaru : how can that be? kukai : there's no way to get to the hourglass. we are on the same side of the barrier as the hokage.... we can't help them. menou (still fighting the barrier): uh.... dad...... (her hands are getting really badly hurt) genjuro : it's useless, the barrier has a very strong hold. if you try to break it by force, you'll just die. kill that guy, it's the only way! menou : I don't want to do it! (recca pulls her back) recca... recca (smile) : idiot! you've hurt your hands! leave the rest to me! yanagi (happy) : recca! domon : do it! genjuro : don't waste your time. even your flame can't damage the barrier. it's impossible! (recca slashes the barrier with saiha, doesn't even leave a mark) genjuro : simple minded fool. hahaha... recca (look at his hand) : don't underestimate me-- you fucking old bastard! (suddenly punch the barrier) domon (shock) : hanabishi!! kagero : stop it! recca! your arm will be destroyed! audience : is he a big moron? the flame can't even scratch the barrier and now he want to break it with his bare hands! menou : no... recca... I don't want to get you involved in this! recca (his hand still on the barrier) : menou, don't you want to save your father? [just one arm... I just need one arm to pass the barrier and I can save your dad!] genjuro : aren't you nice, idiot. too bad you picked the wrong path. so did menou's father. text (flashback in a lab) : the research conducted with different animal DNA was very successful... label : c-com foundation private research institute text : next, I want to use human specimens... sakura (menou's father) : [are you talking about humans? doctor? isn't that too...] genjuro : [this is kurei sama's order, you can't back out.] text : at the time, there was a scientist who wished to stop the research, his name was sakura. he is menou's father. man : [sakura, someone's here to see you.] text : that was his child. sakura : oh, ok. menou (hand her father a box lunch) : [dad, it's your lunch!] sakura : [menou, this is really too much trouble, thank you.] text : that girl didn't know what her father was working on, she just comes everyday to bring her father a boxed lunch (genjuro watching the exchange) then I got a great idea. (taking a piece of her hair) genjuro : [just look at this... (the hair in a preserved tube) this piece of hair is of superior quality! the texture is fine and soft, It's a perfect artistic masterpiece, it's the best candidate for shiki gami. therefore, I've decided to implant shiki gami into the body of this person! mr. sakura, that would be your daughter menou! she is the owner of this piece of hair.] (flashback ends) of course he violently rejected the plan. and because of that... he's in here now. (sand continues to fall on sakura) do you get it? it's all because he loves his daughter so much! menou, because of you, your father is close to dying! (menou covers her ears) didn't I tell you, when I take out the hourglass, you will become my experiment to fight to save your father? didn't you swear to fight for your father? don't tell me you are taking it back. recca : shut the fuck up! asshole! how can you do such inhumane things to them... (barrier breaks at one point) FUCK YOU! (arm passes through the barrier) genjuro : !!? his arm passed the barrier! recca (summon dragon) : your dead! asshole! I'll save menou's dad first, and then we'll get down to business. HOMURA!
