In the cold opening cinematic Ayumi enters a local shop to have one of her latest finds, the crystal skull, appraised by the shopkeeper. As she browses the wares while waiting, she happens upon an item that resembles the one she found with the skull. She takes out the item in possession and puts it together with one in the shop and the two items snap together instantly. They then shift and twirl causing the interior of the shop to grown dark and a Pangolin snatches the shopkeeper from behind. Suddenly Ayumi finds herself surrounded by Pangolins ready to pounce on her. Quickly she draws her pistolblades and kills the monsters one-by-one. When monsters dissipate their souls enter the two pieces and transform into tablet that displays a glowing map.
