"There is no prayer left in forgotten divinity… only hunger."
Scene 1: The Birth of an Ancient Threat
Location: Outside Time — The Forgotten Layer
In the deepest fold of reality, far beyond Souta's mirror and even beyond the seal of the Supreme God…something stirs.
It has no shape.No name.No beginning.
It wasn't sealed. It was forgotten.Buried by the very concept of memory.
But the light that Souta just unleashed—the song of his family, born from love and defiance—echoed too far.
Too deep.
And now… it has awakened.
"A child... who sings through timelines.A family... who holds each other through oblivion."
The voice slithered like frost along glass.
"This is the sound… of unforgivable defiance."
Scene 2: The Sky Reformed – Reunion Through Light
May 8, 2011 – 6:12 AM – Tokyo
The world came back all at once.
The colors. The sounds. The people.
Ruby screamed as her knees hit asphalt—reality slamming her back into the crosswalk where she'd first vanished.
Kana blinked into a recording studio mid-take, surrounded by shocked staff.
Aqua found himself mid-step on the school rooftop, Happy floating beside him, glowing weakly.
Ai—Ai didn't land.
She descended softly into her living room, arms still outstretched, the memory of Souta's hug fading into light.
"We're… back," Ruby breathed.
Aqua stared at the sunrise, trembling. "We were never gone. Just misplaced."
Happy smiled faintly. "We reconnected. Souta's light… reached all of us."
Scene 3: Souta's Awakening – Limits Were Never Real
6:14 AM – Somewhere near Yoyogi
Souta collapsed into the grass outside the school gate. His breathing was shallow. His fingers twitched like they were rewiring themselves.
He could feel everything now.
Not just his powers—but their truth.
There were never limits.
He had placed chains on himself. Not because he was weak—but because he was human. Because he loved. Because he feared hurting the people he cared for.
Now, those chains had been burnt away by necessity. By grief. By choice.
And with it, came clarity.
"I can undo… anything. Even what I don't understand."
A faint rustle—he turned.
Ai knelt beside him, cheeks wet.
She didn't speak.
She just held his face in her hands like he might vanish.
"Mama…" he whispered. "I remembered everything."
"I know, baby," she whispered. "You brought us all back."
"Did I do okay…?"
She kissed his forehead.
"You did everything. You're my hero."
Scene 4: At the Edge of Peace – A Fissure Appears Again
6:20 AM – Yoyogi Academy Roof
The sky was clear now. Birds returned. Students wept, confused but alive.
The triplets stood side by side—Ai, just behind them.
Kana and Akane arrived moments later, expressions torn between awe and disbelief.
For a breath… there was peace.
Then…
A chime.
Not from the world—but beneath it.
Like a death knell muffled by silk.
A ripple passed through the clouds. A message no human was supposed to hear.
"You were not chosen."
Everyone flinched. Even Ai gasped.
Souta's hands clenched.
A figure stepped from the sky—not descending, but emerging. Like it had always been there, hiding in the folds of forgotten days.
No face. No shape. Just presence.
But its voice shattered thought itself:
"Who dares erase a god's hunger?"
Ruby stepped behind Aqua. Kana instinctively shielded Ai. Even Happy trembled.
But Souta stepped forward.
"I do."
"Then you shall be devoured last," the god hissed.
Scene 5: The Family Decision – No More Victims
That night, the house was silent.
The TV buzzed with reports of "solar anomalies" and "mass hallucinations."
In the quiet, the family sat around the low table. No lights on. Just moonlight and the glow from Happy, curled in Souta's lap.
Ai finally broke the silence.
"We're in danger again… aren't we?"
Souta nodded slowly. "Something older than anything. It doesn't care about time or logic. It hates us simply because we exist."
Aqua asked softly, "And we can't stop it?"
Souta looked down.
"Not yet."
A long pause.
Then Ruby, voice quivering but firm: "Then teach us."
Everyone turned.
"What?"
"You asked before," Ruby continued. "If we wanted to be strong enough to protect ourselves. I do. I want to fight."
Aqua sighed. "I don't want to be protected anymore. I want to stand with you."
Ai looked at her children.
She saw them not as babies… but as warriors.
"Then teach me too."
Souta's eyes welled up.
"All right."
"Then starting tomorrow," he whispered, "…we become gods together."
Final Scene – Unknown Realm
In the deepest dark, the formless god snarled.
It whispered across the void:
"Let them train. Let them hope.I shall give them something no god has ever endured—"
"The death of meaning itself."
It turned to its servants—twisted, mirror-born echoes of the Hoshino family.
"Bring me the hearts of their past selves."
