G views Earth from above, accessing a satellite. She too has the same
powers as Vivian. To her, the lights of the Earth look like the stars.
Mankind's fear of the night released.
On the Earth below three women have
the same kind of experience: replacement lust for their unfulfilled
obsessions. Satomi with the Interpol Agent sent to train her to kill who they
think is Vivian, but is G; G with an American businesswoman left out in the
chauvinistic culture of Japan; and Vivian with Cho Sen, her Sifu's other
masterful student, and all the young girls her Ikko Ikki gang can find to try
and sate her escape. Thus the first half of kotb: san is titled Sex.
In the
second half the Koreans and Yakuza respond to the growing power of the Ikko
Ikki, a collection of the remnants of the Triads and the larger street gangs
brought together by Vivian and upsetting the old ways, by employing a
motorcycle gang called Les Miserables to kill the two Angels Of Death: Vivian
and Cho Sen. Satomi returns to Japan and the motorcycle gang she once stayed
with in hiding, long years ago during kotb: '0',
re-enacting the famed bicycle race this time on motorcycles. Satomi feels that
she is getting her life back together until she finds out that Vivian is with
another and suicidal depression returns. For Vivian the knowledge that her
friends are alive sends her into a deep funk that Cho Sen takes advantage of
to cement her place as Vivian's other. The Les Miserables lay their trap and
over 23,000 words later Vivian, Satomi and Cho Sen are all in each others
presence, G watching from afar, and old feelings return and jealousy and
hatred burn. The second half of kotb: san is titled Violence.
Serge, with
his hard boiled Japanese police officers, Aniki and Suzuburo, and Hansel have
their roles to play as well, as of yet unwritten but will continue the
tracking of Mercury, and her assault and utter destruction of Thebes.
Currently,
kotb: san is at 110,000 words. The first half has been written and will be
retitled. The second half has had a lot of progress done on it up to the
introduction of the Les Miserables. There the continuity of the story ends and
a large 23,000 word finale for Vivian, Satomi and G has been added. The
majority of Serge/Hansel/Mercury threads has yet to be written as should be
just as large, and then there is the filler and alterations that neen to be
made to make the parts fit together properly after such a long time in hiatus.
