Red Dragon requires fresh young bloods. Mao takes them off the street and sequesters them in a brutal training regime designed to produce enforcers. When young Spike arrives at the dojo he enters a world of hazing, harsh trials, and the bitter partnership with another boy, Vicious. It's tough growing up. It's harder when Fate already has a bullet with your name on it.

Rising out of the tragic minefield left behind from FILE: ABDUCTED, the Kura conducts their first case since reactivating. It proves to be a rather moving one—Sakaido, Anaido, and Hijiriido combine their collective skills to unlock the strange code buried in the id well of a killer before the next movement threatens another lives. It seems this murderer shares a passion for music.
