Things don’t look good for the bewildered teenager; however, not long after his arrival, he is attacked by thugs. Armed with only a shopping bag and a useless cell phone, he is soon beaten to a pulp.
Fortunately, a mysterious beauty named “Satella”, who is chasing the one who stole his badge, stumbles upon Subaru and saves him. To thank the honest and kind girl, Subaru offers to help her in her search, and later that night, he even finds the whereabouts of what she is looking for. But unbeknownst to them, a much darker force stalks the pair from the shadows, and just minutes after locating the badge, Subaru and “Satella” are brutally murdered.
However, Subaru immediately wakes up again and encounters a familiar scene: he is confronted by the same group of thugs and meets Satella again.
