“Aa...a..aaa.....”

“...”

...He’s dead.

It’s over...at least that’s what I want. But now that the danger’s over, the adrenaline is gone...

It’s hitting me. That I’ve seen a dead body. That I watched someone die. I’ve never considered that those would be two different things. Isn’t this weird? How is this happening? How is this happening to me?

It’s like a car crash. Or being mugged, or breaking a leg or any one of those mundane accidents that I hear about but never suffer. It’ll never happen to me, that was my belief. Or, rather, it wasn’t that I believed it; it wasn’t even that I assumed it. It was like...like it had been a given, and I never thought more on it. I never even thought about death. I never thought I could die. I never even thought that my mom could be dead.

But now I’ve seen someone die, and that means anything can happen.

I don’t know what to do.

“Ah, that’s done. What a show! Give it up for The Great Oshiro!”

[Image: Matsumoto%20high%20ire.png?raw=true]

“Shut up! Just shut the fuck up!”

[Image: small%20Monobear%20questioning.png?raw=true]

“Oh? Where’s this high and mighty attitude coming from? Is this adolescent rebellion I see?”

[Image: small%20Monobear%20questioning.png?raw=true]

“Who’s the one who said, ‘Nobody’s gonna kill each other?’”

[Image: Matusmoto%20I%27m%20not%20wrong.png]

“...”

[Image: small%20Monobear%20neutral.png?raw=true]

“It’s like I’ve always said.”

[Image: Monobear%20neutral.png?raw=true]

“The best of the best might as well be the worst of the worst.”

[Image: small%20Monobear%20giggling.png?raw=true]

“Future leaders of the world? Gimme a break. What’s a magician gonna do?”

[Image: small%20Monobear%20blushing.png?raw=true]

“In the end, he wanted to save himself.”

[Image: Yamaguchi%20crying.png?raw=true]

“Okay! You made your point! We’re no better than anybody else!”

[Image: Yamaguchi%20crying.png?raw=true]

“Just -- just let us out!”

[Image: small%20Monobear%20neutral.png?raw=true]

“My point?”

[Image: small%20Monobear%20blushing.png?raw=true]

“Bears don’t have points! Except on their claws!”

[Image: small%20Monobear%20good%20side.png?raw=true]

“Anyways, now that the first kill is done, I’ve opened up the second floor! Your rooms are all open, so why don’t you all get some shut-eye? You all look tired as shit!”

Tired...?

Am I?

I don’t want to close my eyes.

Because when I do...

[Image: small%20Monobear%20good%20side.png?raw=true]

“Your rooms all got fancy, state-of-the-art locks. Just swipe your ID, and you’ll be let in! Bye now~!”

[Image: court.png?raw=true]

Just like that, he’s gone.

All I’m left with is a collective silence.

What are they thinking? What am I thinking? The room feels like it’s closing in, and I just want to escape...where’s my mom...? Get me out of here already...

[Image: Nihiri%20upset.png?raw=true]

“...We should go.”

...

[Image: Tsubame%20calm%20down%20please.png?raw=true]

“Um...look on the bright side! We can sleep whenever we want now, in our rooms, right?”

[Image: Matusmoto%20I%27m%20not%20wrong.png]

“The bright side?”

[Image: Matusmoto%20I%27m%20not%20wrong.png]

“People are dead.”

[Image: Tsubame%20err.png?raw=true]

“I, I know, but...in the end, it was necessary -- “

[Image: Matusmoto%20medium%20ire.png?raw=true]

“Are you listening to yourself? What kind of psychopathic -- “

[Image: Tsukino%20distressed.png?raw=true]

“Please. Don’t do this. Not...not now.”

[Image: Tsukino%20distressed.png?raw=true]

“Let’s just go.”

[Image: BLACK%20SCREEN%20FOR%20WHEN%20I%20NEED.png?raw=true]

Eventually, we all filed into the elevator and rode it back up.

The worrying rattles, the extra space everybody gave each other, all these tiny details I couldn’t focus on.

I could only think...

I need to protect myself.

I need something to protect myself with.

Everybody’s going up the stairs. And yet.

And yet...

...

[Image: dark.png?raw=true]

...I need to protect myself...

This is just for me...nothing else...

I...

[Image: mystery.png?raw=true]

“...!”

“...Ah! Who’s -- “

The sudden light is blinding, even though I’m the one who turned them on.

I messed up, didn’t I? I messed up, I...

[Image: Yamaguchi%20surprised.png?raw=true]

...

...It’s Yamaguchi-kun. He’s got two open cartons of ice cream cradled in one of his arms. A spoon in his other hand.

[Image: Yamaguchi%20surprise.png?raw=true]

“M-Mori-san...I...uh...”

[Image: Yamaguchi%20breaking%20down.png?raw=true]

“...U...ugh...”
