Mammon: Shun...
Shun: Teach Why did you bring me here? What do you want from me?
Blackbeard: I don't know what you're talking about. You'd better go away
Shun: I don't know what you're trying to do with this guy, but I'm not going to leave you, Mammon
Mammon: Damn human, don't you dare talk like that to one of the princes of the underworld
Shun: Shut your mouth, you scum, if you keep talking I'll cut out your tongue
Mammon: Teach, if you kill this wretch, I'll give you everything you want, money, fame, power, eternal life
Shun: Don't you get tired of lying demon?
Shun: I don't know what brought you here Teach, but whatever you're thinking, this bastard can't give it to you
Blackbeard: And you can do it? Tell me, can you fulfill what I want? I have no choice, I have to hold on to the only hope I have, my only chance
*Blackbeard's body begins to expel a very dense darkness*
Blackbeard: I'm sorry
Blackbeard appears in front of Shun at high speed, throwing a punch so powerful that it echoes throughout the cave*
Mammon: It's over
*Shun is shown blocking the attack with his sword*
Shun: Is this really what you want?
Blackbeard: I have no choice, not anymore...
*Shun unleashes a kick that sends blackbeard flying and causes him to crash into a wall*
Shun: Well, I don't seem to have a choice
*A gigantic light illuminates the center of the mountain*
Eden: What the hell is this?
Ares: Are you really fighting? Why?
Tiresias: Is he really human?
*Alexbold is shown running to the top*
Alexbold: Wait Shun, I have to finish this
*Blackbeard rises from the rubble*
Blackbeard: There's no going back, if I want to, I'll have to wear it
*Cries of desperation and crying begin to be heard while smoke covers the entire place*
Shun: *Smiles* This will be interesting, it looks like... It's cursed
Blackbeard: *Think* Whatever it takes, I'll bring you back
Blackbeard: Hana!
*The island is divided into two sides, one full of light and the other full of storms and darkness*
Shun: Come Teach!
*Flashback*
*Port Royal City Shown*
*A little boy is shown running into his house to hug his mother*
*The child hugs his mother*
Boy: I'm back
Mother: Wow, how did Teach go? Have you made a lot of friends?
Teach: I...
Mother: Calm down Teach, you're a good kid, I'm sure you'll make a lot of friends
Teach: Really?
Mother: Yes! Now go wash your hands, I've made lunch
Teach: Yes!
*Scene is changed and Teach is shown with his mother in a church*
*Murmur and people are heard watching Teach and his Mother*
Teach: Mom
Mother: Yes? What's wrong?
Teach: There's a lot of people muttering and looking at us
Mother: It's okay Teach, I'm sure they're talking about how cute you look today *Smiles*
Teach: Mom, don't say those things in public
Mother: Why? Why can't you say that my son is very cute?
Teach: Mom
*Teach's mother smiles and hugs him*
*Minutes pass and Teach is shown with his mother*
*Teach stares at a food cart*
Mother: What's going on Teach? Do you want to buy one of those breads?
Teach: *With saliva dripping* No, I'm fine
Mother: *Showing the money* Here, go shopping, don't it take too long? Yes?
Teach: Thank you, Mom
*Teach runs away while his mother looks on with a smile*
Salesperson: Tell me, what do you want, kid?
Teach: Can I get one of those chocolate loaves?
Seller: Yes, here you go
Teach: Thank you
*Teach takes a bite of bread*
Teach: *Think* Delicious!
Woman 1: Look, look, there's that kid
Woman 2: I feel sorry for him, they say his father abandoned him
Woman 3: I had heard that her mother sleeps with a man to make money
Woman 1: I wouldn't be surprised, there are rumors that say that he may be the priest's son
*Teach's annoyed face shown*
Teach: Don't talk like that about my mom!
Woman 3: Filthy child, they are like this, it seems that the lack of a father has made you rude
Woman 2: Poor thing, she'll have to see a different man enter every day
*Teach clenches his fist*
Mother: Teach!
Teach: Mom...
Mother: I told you not to take too long. Come on, we have to go home
Teach: but
Mother: *Leans over* I'm sorry for the discomfort my son has caused
Woman 1: Not calm, the Lord taught us not to hold grudges
Mother: With your permission, we are leaving
*Teach and his mother are shown at home*
Teach: Mom, I...
Mother: Calm down Teach, you don't have to apologize
Teach: But, I don't understand, why do they talk badly about you? Have you done anything to them?
Mother: No, but there have always been people here, and there always will be. therefore, you must be strong Teach
*Mom hugs Teach*
Teach: Mom?
Mother: Promise me Teach, promise you'll be a good kid, promise you'll take care of your family, and you'll be a good person
Teach: It promises
Mother: *With tears in your eyes* You're a good son, Teach
*Teach is shown leaving for school after eating*
Mother: May it go well with you
*Teach leaves and the mother sneaks into the house, but the door is blocked by a stranger*
Mother: What are you doing here?
Unknown: Are you serious? You know very well what we are doing here, you are already 3 months behind in your offering to our great god
Mother: I told you the other time, I never agreed to pay anything
*The stranger grabs the mother by the neck*
Unknown: Do you really want to oppose us? You're lucky that for the moment we only spread rumours. Next time I don't know what we'd be capable of. Don't you think it would be sad if something happens to your child?
Lucia (Mother): Don't get my son in this, you trash
*Lucia begins to squeeze the stranger's arm, and he screams in pain*
*The stranger throws Lucia against a mirror causing the crystals to cut Lucia*
Unknown: We warned you several times Lucia, you should not refuse to be part of our religion. Next time, it won't be us anymore and you'll see what our community is capable of
Lucia: If you dare to touch my son's hair, I'll kill each of you
*After several hours he arrives at Teach and shows himself with bruises and several wounds*
Lucia: Teach! What happened to you?!
Teach: They're talking bad about you
Lucia: Teach...
Teach: I couldn't let them keep talking bad about you, I couldn't allow it...
*A scene is shown where Teach is being beaten by several children and a disturbing shadow is shown behind him*
Shadow: Kill them, kill them, I'll give you what you need, kill them
Teach: No, no, I don't want to, stop, stop
*On the way back home, Teach sees a lot of smoke in the distance*
Teach: *Think* What's going on? Is that at home? No, you can't...
*Teach runs at high speed towards his house while his breathing is heard fluttering and his face of concern*
*Teach arrives and sees his house completely on fire*
Teach: M-Ma-Mom!
Salesperson: You're the other kid
Teach: My mom is in there
Seller: No. According to what I have heard, the police took her away
Teach: The police? My mom? Why?
Salesperson: I don't know the details, but it seems that she was caught doing witchcraft and will be convicted
Teach: And--I have to...
*Teach tries to run, but is stopped by the salesman*
Salesperson: Don't do it, if they see you there, I don't know what could happen to you too
Teach: But, my mom...
Salesperson: I'm sorry...
Teach: *Think* No... I can't... my mom is the only thing I have left... I have to help her, even if she dies trying
*Teach lets go and starts running desperately towards the square of Port Royal*
*A great storm begins to fall on Port Royal, while many people are shown in the square watching Lucia chained on a pole*
Religious leader: This is what happens to those who reject the path that our great god has not offered, the only true way. Anyone who rejects His truth will be condemned to live eternally in the flames
Lucia: *Think* Good thing, Teach won't see this... thank goodness
*Lucia lets out a small smile as all the fire envelops her. At the same time as Teach arrives at the scene and witnesses the event*
Teach: *Think* What did we do wrong? Were we really that bad? Did we kill someone? No, it was just me and my mother; without hurting anyone. So why are they punishing us? Why? I don't get it... I won't understand
*While Lucia screams desperately being consumed by the flames, the entire audience insults her and calls her a witch and applauds the act*
*Shaded behind Teach*
Shadow: Kill 'em, kill 'em
Teach: Shut the beak, I'll take them all out myself
*The shadow cracks a disturbing smile as a heavier rain begins to fall*
