Akutagawa and his men, including Chuya Nakahara, were in a meeting in a large, abandoned, low building in a garage. Akutagawa turned to Chuya, his eyes dark with anger, his voice seething. He was angry, but not at Chuya, but at the failure of the plan to find and destroy the rats.

Akutagawa: You failed to catch the weretiger. Explain why, Nakahara?
