Death

Shiki recovers from his attack under Akiha's watchful eye. He dreams of being a small boy who awakens to find himself along. He hears a woman's voice calling his name from beyond the trees. He follows it and finds a number of dead bodies that lie massacred. Above, the woman calling him lies impaled on a tree. She drops her knife and he picks it up. As she dies, her blood drips onto his face. Horrified, the young boy picks up the knife and starts slicing at the tree in frustration.
