Synopsis

Sakurai brings Takeru and Kou before the Deputy Secretary of the U.S. Department of Defense who tells them that it was one of his old operations that resurrected the demons they have been fighting. He asks the pair to work for him as demon hunters. Sakurai tells Takeru that just because she bears the Witchblade, this does not mean she will become a demon herself. Takeru races back to her village when she learns that her Grandmother is being threatened by Master Hougen and his demons.
