But when Satsuki loses her one chance at happiness, she spirals into a deep depression, shutting out everyone and everything by locking herself inside her bedroom-- for good. Her sadness, however, pales in comparison to her uncontrollable anger. It spreads like a nuclear fire, ambivalent to what or who it destroys. Meanwhile, on the other side of the world in Evanston, Illinois, Seul Bi Rissiello can't sleep because every time she closes her eyes, she relives her adoptive parents' gruesome deaths.
