As Meisa began explaining the situation and the lines on the ground began to work their way into Katsuko's body, he stared into the clone's eyes with surprising intensity. His fierce expression was matched by his red eyes, but he didn't move an inch. Even with the searing pain, he stood his ground with his fists clenched as the only sign he even felt the sealing. As soon as she left, Katsuko closed his eyes for a moment, before taking his hand up to his ear and removing his earphone communicator. As a way of venting, he crushed the tiny device in his hand, letting the tiny pieces fall to the ground. He could feel the seal on his heart. The disturbance of his natural state. Once again, he clenched his fists, before looking back at Ryo and Yumi.

Yumi was already walking away, but Ryo was still there. [b]"I'm going to spend my last day with my family,"[/b] Katsuko informed him as he looked ahead once more. Though his expression wasn't as fierce as before, his irises were still red. [b]"It looks like rain tomorrow..."[/b] There wasn't a cloud in the sky, but that seemed to not make a difference. Without waiting for a goodbye, Katsuko began to walk away, his fists still at his side. As he began making his way home, he couldn't help but feel that he was carrying more weight now. Each step was heavier. But he knew what he had to do now. [I]I don't like it, but I have no choice but to go along with this for now,[/I] he thought to himself, jumping down to the street once he was at the edge of the rooftop. [I]This isn't the future I had in mind. The plan. I'm going to break Mom's heart...[/I]
