Uraido/History

## *ID: INVADED*

### **FILE: 12 Channeled**

Uraido is created after Takuhiko Hayaseura is outed as John Walker and kills and traps himself in his own id well, a world full of masks leading to countless other id wells. After waking, Uraido sees Kaeru, having been stabbed to death, and remembers his name and mission to solve her death. He then notices the bloody knife in his hand and realises that he killed her, bursting out into manic laugher and remembering his true identity, and due to Hayaseura being dead, avoids triggering a well storm. At that moment, he notices Sakaido and Miyo Hijiriido watching him, and flees into a serial killer's id well.

He ends up in a world full of reflections, though Sakaido and Hijiriido follow behind. He is surprised that Tamotsu Fukuda didn't dive in, but brushes it off, deducing it doesn't matter, before vanishing and running to another, this time Koharu Hondomachi's, quickly followed. Gleefully, he reveals to Hijiriido her true identity as Hondomachi, triggering a well storm as he once again flees. He then travels to a variety of other id wells, watching with a sadistic enjoyment as the Kura struggle to survive.

### **FILE: 13 Channeled II**

Eventually, Uraido ends up in an id well consisting of a giant bath of sharks, filled with blood and a massive fetus. Perched on its head, he observes that whoever owns the id well must have had a traumatic first memory. Sakaido, having followed him, tries to attack him, and Uraido counters with his cane, sending him flying but disturbing the fetus in the process, who starts screaming. Hovering mid-air, Uraido mocks Sakaido for shouting as he attacked, spoiling the element of surprise and condems him for waking the fetus. Sakaido again attacks him, and they two briefly dual before being interrupted by the fetus, who tries to squash them.

The fight coming to a standstill, Uraido expresses his dissatisfaction with Sakaido's language, realising he must have remembered his identity as Akihito Narihisago, the latter confirming it, since it wouldn't be revenge if he didn't know who he was. Uraido admonishes this and points out the both of them are brilliant detectives and serial killers, but Narihisago denies that they're anything alike. Uraido disagrees, defining a brilliant detective as someone who inquires, and that he is making inquires into justice, his own way.

At that moment, the two are once again interrupted, this time by Hijiriido/Hondomachi riding a shark, who leaps out of the water and lands right on top of him, cutting off his arm and part of his head. Uraido surfaces however to both their shock, despite having lost his arm and half his head, using Hondomachi's attack to prove his point, that the three are driven to manipulate and kill people, believing the definition of justice changes depending on what criteria one uses to judge, and that even if those two don't share his form of justice, someone else will on the outside, and since he cannot leave, the Mizuhanome must repair his data, which it does, healing his wounds.

Turning to Hondomachi, he accuses her of using Fukuda to escape her id well, which she denies, rephrasing it as her only escaping with his help. She then tosses his hat up for Narihisago to catch, calling it "of great importance for a gentleman", and follows him out of the id well. Acknowledging the act as bait, Uraido decides to play along anyway and pursues them into his main id well. Mocking them for trying to run and hide, he follows them into Fukuda's well. As they fall, he drags Hondomachi out of the way and kicks Narihisago into a floating platform.

Landing and picking up his hat, Uraido mocks his sloppily executed revenge and, once Hondomachi lands, tells everyone to calm so they can talk, sitting down on an armchair. He then asks where Fukuda is, since the two went through the trouble of luring him into his id well, theorising that Anaido is nearby ready to cause a well storm, doubting his abilities as a "third pillar" to take him down. Narihisago tells him to wait and see, and Uradio suspects another attack. To his suprise however, the two start laughing at how he "hasn't noticed". Growing suspicious, he moves to get up, but Narihisago urges him to sit down and talk with them.

Hondomachi asks Uraido what the number seven means to him, with him replying that it is a "divine" number, and begins to explain himself, but she interrupts him, calling him out on his god complex, noting how he limited his seven serial killers to seven victims each, with his plan all along having been to kill himself after the seventh. Uraido then points out he created an eighth: Narihisago, the Cornerer, but Hondomachi defines Narihisago as a "serial suicide inciter", and that he was created to force Hayaseura into a situation where he would have to kill himself. Uraido tries to deny it, but Hondomachi refuses to allow Narihisago to play his role, calling Uraido out as a manipulator who thought he was god.

At that moment, Narihisago's disembodied hand suddenly grabs him by the throat and pins him to the chair. Hondomachi reveals that Uraido is sitting in a Mizuhanome, which only she could perceive due to the hole in her head, brought into existence by Anaido's existence, acknowledging him as the third pillar before injecting Uraido into the well within a well. Waking up in Hayaseura's body just before he killed himself, he is immediately subdued by that world's version of Narihisago before he can do anything, trapping him in a world where he is arrested and tried for his crimes.
