Ultraman: Stars in the Darkness

On the night a meteorite fell, two people were struck by a flash of light.

When she woke, there was someone inside her claiming to be an Ultraman. She promptly subdued him and made a deal: You can stay, but you do what I say.

When he woke, there was someone else inside him, too. The golden one said, “The one inside me and the one inside you have been bitter enemies for three thousand years.”

From then on, they were swept into a vortex they could never escape.

They were headed in the same direction; they simply had different roles.

When the truth came to light

They realized they had long since ceased to be bystanders.

They were stars, moving forward side by side in the darkness.
