Souta's Story - New Habits[]
Souta and Aya are on the rooftop of a Kyoto Mall where a camp had been built. They both scavenge for supplies, noting the large amount of food and medical equipment they found. They agree that the mall group had likely scavenged all the supplies they could from the mall and brought it up to the rooftop. Souta wonders how the camp could have fallen, but Aya points out a bloodied bed where it seemed someone had been medically treated and states that the group likely didn't know about the true nature of the virus after someone died. Souta wonders if they'll be able to find anyone else now that Kyoto is largely overrun with the dead. Before leaving the rooftop, he notices a dead woman and young girl and appreciates the fact that he doesn't have a family to take care of.
Aya's Story - Judgment Call[]
Aya scavenges for guns and ammunition at a Kyoto Police Station. She uses one of the radios to see if she can connect with other survivors to no avail. While inside, she sees several dead officers. She eventually reaches the jail cells and encounters Ikeda Hideki, a serial killer who was captured right before the apocalypse. He tells her that she's not the first officer to have come by the police station to get supplies from the armory. Aya used a pair of bolt cutters to break the lock to the armory, although she has some difficulty doing it. Hideki mocks her during this time, much to her annoyance. Eventually, she is able to break the locks and get everything from the armory. She's about to leave, but feels pity for Hideki and decides to leave him the bolt cutters and tells him to join a group so that he can survive. He ask if he can join her group but Aya refuses on account that it was Souta who arrested him. She leaves while Hideki begins to use the bolt cutters to escape.

Daichi joins the group and together they head over to the Kiyomizu Temple as it's on the way out of the city. Once they get there, the group encounters a young girl, Miho, who was there when the Temple was destroyed. They invite her to join their group, and trek towards Nara. Miho accepts their offer
