(Two figures are seen running in the streets.)

????: Come on, onii-chan. We need to see them.

????: Hey, slow down in there.

(Suddenly a truck comes in and the male figure sees it getting closer to hit the female figure.)

????: WATCH OUT, HINA!

(The male figure pushes Hina away, saving her from getting hit by the truck, losing his own life instead as the truck hits him.)

Citizen 1: Oh my God!

Citizen 2: He got hit by a truck.

(Some citizens recognize the victim.)

Citizen 3: Naoki? (approaches him) NAOKI!

(Naoki's friend tries to help him.)

Citizen 3: Talk to me. Talk to me, Naoki.

(Hina gets up and gets shocked by seeing Naoki down in the ground.)

Hina: Onii-chan. (approaches Naoki) Onii-chan!

(Hina checks his pulse, and then falls into tears.)

Hina: (cries) Onii-chan is gone...

(The citizens get shocked.)

Citizen 3: (sobs) Naoki...

(The citizens circle around Naoki as they mourn for his death.)

(Cut to the Heaven.)

Naoki: Am I... in heaven?

????: This wasn't supposed to be your fate, Naoki Ryuga?

Naoki: Huh? Who's there?

(Then a godly figure approaches him as Naoki recognizes him.)

Naoki: God?

God: Your time hasn't come yet, Naoki. That's why I'm going to give you a second chance.

Naoki: A second... chance?

God: Yep, you will be reincarnated into another world. And you will find something which will change your life forever.

Naoki: Something which will change my life? Forever?

God: Yes. But it's up to you to accept.

(Naoki thinks for a while.)

Naoki: (in mind) I always wanted to have a life of adventures. Maybe I can have one if I accept.

(Then he finally makes his decision.)

Naoki: Okay, I accept.

God: Good choice. Now you're going to another world to live a new life.

Naoki: Thanks, God.

God: No need to thank me, Naoki. Now it's time.

(Then a light surrounds Naoki, and some minutes later, he finds himself in a village.)

Naoki: So this is where I live now. Well, the adventure awaits me.

(Then Naoki goes to explore the world.)
