Dawn of Time.

"Hook: Destruction! War!! Endless Death!!! All Must Stop!!! Reset it all!!! Break free!!!"

*Kuragari stands up from his throne and the entire church is set on fire, he is only thing remaining inside it, he walks towards Annah who is standing in front of the fire.*

"Verse 1: I gaze over the horizon, wondering when and where it all went wrong for me. The clock ticks closer to midnight every second, unable to be slowed by man, demon, or angel. If I can't forge my own path, then I'll make one for someone else."

*Kuragari sits on the edge of a cliff, looking at the setting sun, the images of his friends, his enemies, and Annah standing next to Isabel flash in his head. His 10 year old self walks through a blood red rose field, when he walks through one of shadows he turns into the 17 year old Reyes, into the Legendary Ketsueki Slayer, and finally into Kuragari.*

"Verse 2: The darkness lives inside all of us, but I'll take control of it and turn the clock back, moving midnight further away from us. The me of tomorrow holds the crown in his hand, the bullets from the gun fall on the ground, questioning who their target is. But yet, the further I turn the clock, the closer the end gets."

*Kuragari watches from afar as his friends all share stories around a campfire, he looks at a pocket watch before throwing it away into an endless abyss. Two wooden prosthetic hands holding a pure black crown and Green Cloak holding an empty revolver appear inside the abyss as the pocket watch drops past them.*

*Epic Guitar Build Up to the drop.*

"Chorus: Why fight it?! Why hate it?! Why love it?! Why adore it?!!! I'm alive aren't I? Life is life, why love or hate it!!! The Ashes on the Fire!!! Let us do this again!!! I didn't want to stab you in the back, but he forced me to!!! Break Free, Break Free, Break me Free!!! Freedom is so close to me!!! The Paradigm we find ourselves in is infinite!!! The Ashes on the Fire Burn Deeply!!! Once again at the end, I burn down the door blocking me!!! I'll let the darkness live inside me!!! The blood drips off of the blade, I am sorry!!!"

*The biggest moments in Sam's life flash inside his head, him becoming a Reaper, Isabel dying, his fight with Dracula, Sara's death, and much more. The Reapers fly down at Kuragari in the middle of the forest, he surrounded by tree branches with no where to go. Kuragari who is missing his right eye attacks Azrael, the two explode into a dance of lightning and black fire. Annah fires several Clear Crystal shards at Tomogui who leaps towards her. Kenji's eyes spring open with a blood red glow to them, his hair also turns pure black. Able stands on the same cliff as Kuragari, a smile grows on his face as the sun rises. Levente throws his sword on the ground and holds Esperanza's hand. The centipede emerges from Carter's back as him and Amelia fight against a group of enemies inside the burning forest. Samantha stands between Kane and Kuragari, uncertain on what to do. The battle scarred Kuragari and Kane approach each other, readying for the final battle.*

"After all it is just the Dawn of Time."

Is there a point to this "Opening"? Not really, but I had fun writing it dammit, so I'm publishing it as hype for the coming Chapters.
