Close Your Eyes 「目を閉じよ」

“BA-BUM!”

Taiko drums. They tell us when.
A thousand leaves dance. They tells us where.

Eyes open—red inside.
It's come to feast.

狼
(WOLF)

Bells. Screams.
“Bakemono da! Bakemono da—!”
“Warabe o kakumae—!”

It moves swift.
No time to hide. It’s too late.

“AIIIIIHH—!” 

The village night watch was first.

Then came the children.

娘
(GIRL)

It tore into flesh, ripping away shadows.
It allowed no last word, nor last breath.
It came from the dark, then vanished back into it. It left nothing but lakes of red.

A monster.

伝
(TALE)

Eyes closed.
You are not meant for this. 

“BA-DA-BUM.”
