( VIDEO | canon move part one. )
[ celty is standing on a rooftop with her motorbike beside her. you can't see what's happening beyond that - she's wearing her helmet, and facing the other way. suddenly, she turns, jumps on her motorbike - her horse, that shrieks and whinnies as always - materialises her enormous scythe out of shadows, and starts riding her bike down the side of the building at full speed.
anyone watching feels something strange, and then suddenly hears a young woman's voice. it might take a moment to realise that it's not audio - it's coming telepathically. it's not harmful apart from a mild headache, but with the raw emotion, volume and suddenness of it, it's almost intrusive.
it's celty's real voice. and she's pissed. ]
SCREW IT! [ the people on the ground hear her too, and start shouting in confusion. celty picks up speed. ] That's right, I have no head! I'm a monster! I have no mouth to speak my thoughts, or eyes to convey my emotions!
[ the confusion is getting louder on the ground. celty's scythe drags along the side of the building with a metallic shriek and a shower of sparks. ]
But so what! Who gives a damn! I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!
[ she reaches the end of the building, launches forwards with a few spins and lands on the ground, coming to a stop on squealing tires. she gets off her bike, scythe still in-hand. ]
I am here. And I am real. [ some men in suits lunge to attack her, and celty fights them off, slices through them with her scythe - but strangely, it appears to do them no damage. they just collapse, unconscious. ] If you say I have no eyes, then watch my actions very closely! Listen to the cries of those around you! The ones who've angered this monster!
[ a man comes at her with a knife, and knocks off her helmet. the crowd falls silent. everyone stares in horror at her and someone speaks: "it's... it's the headless rider."
and every single person starts to run away. ]
That's right, I'm here. Right in front of you. Take a look! Do you hear me screaming?! This is my moment! This is my time to be born! I am injecting my very existence into the veins of this city!
[ by this point, the telepathic voice is screaming. in the background, two boys are fighting, and the bigger one lunges at the smaller one with a knife - but celty jumps in the way and takes the stab to where her lung would be. the larger boy who stabbed her starts to talk. ]
I have to thank you for what you've done. If it weren't for you, I'm pretty sure my sister would have just locked her in that cramped research lab again. [ he removes the knife and celty collapses, shaking and clutching the wound. the smaller boy goes down with her: "you okay?" ] I want you to give Celty back. She and I have to get out of here before the cops arrive.
[ celty snatches up her helmet and uses it to try and smack the knife from the boy's hand. it doesn't work, and she stands a moment later. ] It'll take more than that to stop our love! [ he lunges, and celty continues to swing her helmet at him, clobbering him with it. ] It's no use! Pain means nothing to me! There will be no pain in the life I'll have with Celty! Beat me all you want, I don't care. I won't feel it!
[ calmly, celty puts her helmet back on and her huge scythe materialises again. she raises it and prepares to swing it down hard, right at the boy's torso - ]
No, NO! [ the girl with the scarred neck from another of celty's video posts runs into the fray; the girl with celty's head. she stands in front of the tall boy. ] Please don't hurt him! Just listen. I know Seiji is harsh and violent at times, but he's not a bad person! And there's someone in this world... he truly loves.
[ celty and the smaller boy seem to be... shocked by something. absolutely thrown. it's the boy who speaks first. ]
Mika... Harima? [ the girl starts to cry and looks away suddenly. ] You're her, aren't you? The girl that Seiji supposedly killed. You're Mika Harima!
[ seiji... doesn't seem pleased by this. ] It can't be... Tell me he's wrong...
[ mika turns to him. ] I'm so sorry! I'm sorry... I'm sorry I didn't die! But then, your sister... And that's when this doctor showed up. He said that with a little plastic surgery and some make-up, I could look just like the head that you were in love with. He told me my name would be Celty, because that's what the head is called. I tried... I tried hard to be Celty for your sake, but your sister said...
[ mika and seiji can no longer be heard. celty's telepathic voice comes through again, with a bit of static, a little quieter now that the rage storm of earlier is over, but now there is something tense and betrayed in that voice - ]
A doctor who knows my name... and that I'm a Dullahan. [ celty is shaking violently. her scythe disappears in an angry swirl of smoke and shadows. ] There's only one person like that in this whole city—!
[ she storms off furiously, with a purpose and a determination in her stride, leaving the fight and the young boy behind. ]

... I wish I knew what to tell you. [He doesn't even know who Shinra is.]

Listening to them would be good. Though you certainly have a right to be skeptical about someone who's already lied to you.
