While visiting a member of a bereaved family, Hanzawa remembers the first time he met Hiyakawa. It was over a decade ago and Hiyakawa had been a child then. He'd said that he'd seen many people destroyed by the power of belief and that he believed that he would one day encounter a destiny meant just for him.
When he was young, after his mother had discovered his abilities, Hiyakawa had been placed in a symbolic position within a special group called the Palm of the Hand Research Society.
When you're being threatened
 or abused, if you think to yourself,
،عندما تتعرّضين للتهديد أو المضايقة
:وتقولين لنفسك
Wenn man bei Einschüchterungen und Missbrauch
denkt, dass man nicht dagegen ankommt …
Cuando nos amenazan o maltratan,
Cuando nos amenazan o maltratan,
En cas de menaces ou de harcèlement,
si vous commencez à croire
Quando si è minacciati o maltrattati
Quando se é ameaçado ou abusado,
При угрозах и жестоком обращении
 самое главное — не сдаваться.
