A child Mu, running in an endless darkness where the only sounds heard is his own ragged breath, footfalls, and erratically beating heart. There are tears running down his face from pure exhaustion, but his hands are closed into fists and even though his feet are bleeding and his muscles hurts really badly he is stubborn and keeps running. He thinks he's going to die but he wants to see his brethren, the other fanalis, on the other side of the great rift, so so badly that he refuses to give up. If there was a place where he belonged, then he wanted to see it.
The walls of the old, shabby apartment building in Haven is covered in blood, but that's not all. There are hands sticking out as well. Creepy, dead-looking hands grabbing after the people passing through the corridors. A creepy, unfamiliar tune is heard from the old mobile phone in his hand and when he tried to turn off the noise he had no success with it so he puts it away. He has bigger priorities than the phone flipping out. As he heads through the corridor he has to pull his thick long mane of red hair free from the hands grabbing at it (some hands end up getting torn right out of the wall with a sickly sound of breaking bones and bubbling blood) until he reaches one of the rooms he was heading for. A man with short hair and glasses is in the room and Mu is worried when he sees him. The man - apparently named Reim - smells different from usual, and he acts differently, too. He's possessed but something (a ghost) and there is nothing Mu can do about no matter how he tells the ghost to get out of his friend and turn him back to normal he can't hurt the possessed person and the ghost knows it. The ghost, however, doesn't care if its vessel or the person it's talking to gets hurt and he slams his forehead hard against Mu's nose and then point a gun at him. When the ghost realizes that Mu is not going to hurt the vessel however, it breaks free after a long string of bantering ("alright , puppy--heel," the ghost tells him at one point) and heads out. When Mu follows he accidentally walks right through the wall between the apartment and the corridor, causing debris to fall and dust to rise and make him cough, and the ghost takes that opportunity to flee.
A very important conversation happens. It's about plants. Mu is sitting beside a young girl and her familiar is in her lap. They're outside in the wrecked town, sitting on a slab of stone from a crumbled building, and there are no signs of plants or animals around. There are only dirty and worn people, everyone looking as if they have not had a proper meal in months. With the help of the familiar Nii-chan, the girl (Lady Shiemi, Mu calls her, while she calls him Mu-san) summons various kinds of plants. She tells him what she calls them (not the actual names of the plants) and what they can be used for, and he listens with interest, asking questions when there is something that he wonders. Despite the gloomy atmosphere of the town, the two of them are in a good mood and it's fun to talk to friends.
It's stupid and he knows it. But he made the choice to stay in the small, dirty, dark prison that they had been placed in some days earlier, instead of running away. He hates being chained, but he refused to escape because he knew that if he did, someone else, an innocent person brainwashed into being a prison warden, brainwashed into thinking that the prisoners were enemies that deserved to die. It wasn't their fault that they had been brainwashed into thinking that, though, and Mu didn't want to cause the death of someone that didn't understand what was really going on. So he stayed--although he had made sure, together with Lady Izumo and Masaomi, that Lady Shiemi would survive--and now he was staring at a person that held a rifle in their hands. He gritted his teeth, well aware that time was running out, for now. He didn't trust the revival system, but he wasn't afraid of death, even though he knew he should not stare down the barrel of the rifle with such stubbornness and spite. The Yao Corporation had a crooked view on what loyalty was, and he didn't care if he failed their so-called "test", because of how much he disagreed with them.
A woman is sitting among the debris, singing and playing on an empty food can and a wooden plank. Mu had jumped up on top of the apartment building, only to find that the wild, magical garden that usually grew up there (and tried to kill people) was not there, simply because he has gone up to the rooftop by the outside of the building instead of using the stairs, and he can hear her even from the distance. When he jumps down from the several stories ghigh building and joins her, a conversation about the differences of music in their world engages the both of them. Lady Rose, as he calls her, comes from a world with electronic devices that can play music, computers and ipods and stuff, and his country is much more old fashioned, but at least he knows how to play drums? He is better at dnacing though, and he promises that he will show her his favorite kind of swords dance once he has swords fit for it.
People have gathered to go in a group up to Haven North, and Mu is among those people. Not that he can't make it through the tunnels without breaking a sweat but he likes to help out where he can. And he talks to a person that he knows from before (a guy that makes close to no sense on a good day) despite the guy addressing him as "the avid reader of fanfiction" this time around. It's always something new, and he never gets his name correctly. Mu has more or less given up on correcting him by now. The reason why the tunnels tend to be dangerous is because there are dangerous creatures in them. Mu doesn't like to call them monsters just because they are mindless beasts, because he himself is a monster, in his eyes, because he's not entirely human. It's complicated and he has a lot of issues surrounding it. None the less, him and Sakamoto has different opinions on the creatures. Sakamoto finds them creepy, while Mu just finds them bothersome at the most. The two of them, as the conversation rolls on (apparently scavenging = grocery shopping to Sakamoto) decide that they will go exploring the tunnels further together later, once this expedition is over.
He's stuck in a metal chair, his movements restricted despite his inhuman strength, and there is another man in the chair beside him. In front of them is a man in a lab coat that turns out to be called Dr. Kite, and he's someone that Mu knows has tortured some of his friends before. He hates the man since he first heard of him because of that. Kite taunts, describing in detail how he operated on Mu's younger sister, his most precious person, describes how she screamed in pain and died in agony. In retaliation, because it's the only thing he can do besides cursing the doctor, Mu bites his hand when it comes close enough. The hand is torn to pieces by his string jaws and sharp teeth, but it heals quickly, the scales of a lizard visible for a few moments. Then Kite starts to tear at him. Slowly, methodically, with the calm and interested expression of a scientist performing an experiment. He tears him apart piece by piece, fingers, hands, elbows, arms. He pulls bones from muscles and at first Mu manages to stop himself from screaming, but in the end it's impossible.
A glare is being directed at him. One of his friends is patching him up after a fight that went awry (why didn't that guy he had been fighting bleed? There were a lot of whys about that guy) and Dylas is upset with him for it. He gets even more annoyed with him when Mu won't eat the food that he thinks he needs to eat, because Mu has lost so much weight and he's hurt on top of that. "I can't," Mu explains, "when I try to eat, ever since the spiral sacrificail chamber, I have been unable to." He explains that when he eats, everything he puts in his mouth feels as if they're crawling worms, moving inside of him, down his throat and through his body. It's all because what Kite did. Ever since Mu saw Ryuugamine puke up maggots and turn into maggots from the inside out, and ever since the same happened to Mu, he has been having that mental barrier. He knows it's all in his head, yet he can't ignore the sensation that makes him want to throw up. It only gets worse because the feeling constantly reminds him of how he failed to save Ryuugamine and Masaomi from Kite. Hearing all this makes Dylas even angrier, but at Kite, this time. At least Kite is dead now, although it doesn't help this problem.
Izumo is a peculiar guy. Peculiar in a completely different way from Sakamoto. He also likes to hit on Mu, like commenting on his muscles and trying to talk him into casual sex. Mu has learned to mostly ignore it, even if some of the things he said made him blush. Another thing that makes him blush is Izumo shoving his remaining hand in through the sides of Mu's improvised toga and squeeze his pecs. Mu sputters and Izumo calls him cute. Mu tries to fend him off without using too much force but Izumo is like a snake that refuses to let go, sometimes. When he kisses him Mu finally pushes him off though, and Izumo grins a shameless grin at him. "C'mon, you haven't gotten laid since you got here, right? An adorable, big muscular guy like you must be popular, I'll be nice." Mu shakes his head, and tries to push down the blush. "You need to stop doing things like this, you'll get hurt one day." Of course, that only motivates Izumo further, since a guy that cares so much is also adorable, so "why not let this sweet little treasure hunter into your bed for a while~?" but he's repeatedly turned down.
Haven is a horrifying place, and sometimes you need to relax. Mu's newly adopted family member Masaomi is making party glasses out of pipe cleaners, and Mu has come to try it out with him. It's not going all that well for him, though, because the little metal string in the pipe cleaners breaks like brittle egg shells in his hands. Masaomi thinks it's hilarious, at least, so Mu doesn't mind the failure. As long as the people that he cares for are happy, he's happy.
