Senpai was acting strange, she thought.
She thought she would be thrilled that the boy she'd had a crush on for so long finally noticed her, but not like this.
She wanted him to look at her with eyes full of love and adoration, like she does for him, not fear and hatred.
Every time he saw her, he scurried away. She hated it, she hated being ignored but she hated the treatment she was receiving even more.
It doesn't matter, though.
Just one- no, two more rivals and then Taro wouldn't have a choice but to be hers.
Her first priority was Megami, she'd deal with Budo later.
She knew how she wanted to dispose of Megami the moment she recorded that ignorant and hateful message just for Ayano.
She wanted to show Megami just how much power she had over her, over everyone.
It's a shame though, really.
She had originally wanted to use Osana for this wonderful plan; but...Ayano had been so preoccupied with the other rivals that she forgot even mind-slaves need to eat.
It was a right shock when Ayano came down to check on the orange, pig-tailed tsundere dead; flies swarming her body and maggots crawling up her skin to feast, her bones on display under her thin and starved body.
That didn't matter, though.
She had...another option.
She got up from her bed at the thought, calmly walking to her basement door, unlocking it and walking down the stairs, her arrival making an echo that alerted the other person in the damp room, not that they cared, not anymore.
Ayano let a sick, deranged smile take place on her pale face as she got one of the food meals she left in the basement and fed Osoro Shidesu carefully, she would need the energy, after all.
"Osoro, I have a great surprise for you~" Ayano giggled, Osoro hated that voice with every fibre in her being.
"I want you to do a favour for me tomorrow..." Ayano asked, putting the empty plastic tray down on the cold floor.
Osoro just lifted her head, too broken to let out a response.
"I'd like you to 'get rid of' Megami Saikou for me, and then after that...you'll dispose of yourself with the same weapon I will give you to attack Megami..." Ayano spoke slowly, putting her hand on Osoro's bruised, red knees as a sick way of comforting someone.
Osoro just let out a single breath, which Ayano took as a confirmation. She got up and began walking back up the creaky stairs.
"I'll see you tomorrow morning, I thank you for your co-operation." Ayano said, a dead smile on her face which Osoro couldn't see, but she could feel it.
Ayano closed the door, leaving Osoro in darkness aside from the dingy light in the room.
She locked the door behind her and walked back upstairs to go to bed.
She couldn't sleep, though; she was too thrilled at the millions of ideas and thoughts of seeing the shock on Megami's face as Ayano stood by as she was brutally murdered by the infamous delinquent she thought had gone missing.
—————
Like any other school day, Ayano woke up at 6:00 and got ready for school, she made herself some toast and brushed her teeth.
She unlocked her basement, humming with each step on the staircase.
She fed her captive, untied her carefully, making sure that Osoro didn't attack her, she didn't.
She then took Osoro to school at 6:30, before anyone else would be at the school, leaving her by a hedge against the school gates, leaving her with her self-loathing thoughts.
Ayano went to the town afterwards to avoid suspicion of being so early, buying a few gifts for senpai to leave on his desk.
Soon, the clock hit 7:00 and, along with the rest of the students, Ayano entered the school and calmly made her way to the cooking club, avoiding the student council members gaze.
She then went to the drama club and slipped on the black gloves that she saw earlier in the weeks.
She had a dark smile as she made her way out of the school building and to the spot where she left her mindslave, Osoro was still there, on the ground and hugging her knees.
She knelt on the ground, passing the knife to Osoro forcefully, who held it with shaky hands.
"Megami Saikou." Ayano commanded into Osoro's ear.
Osoro didn't respond, only nod. She got up on wobbly knees and made her way to the student council office slowly.
Megami was sat in her chair, searching things up on the Aishi family to try and use against Ayano when she took her to court.
"Kill...Kill...Kill...Kill..."
Megami heard the faint chanting that only got louder and louder as time went on.
She checked the time on the computer, 8:05, most of the students should be in class right now.
She slowly got up from her seat and made her way to the blue closed door.
She didn't have the time to react before arms grabbed her shoulders, forcing her to the ground and red clouded her vision.
She felt a sharp object pierce her chest over and over again, digging into her flesh.
She didn't have the time to scream out in agony, it all happened so fast as blood pooled around underneath her.
Her head lolled to the side, the last thing she would ever see would be that monstrous, black-haired girl. Her worst enemy.
Ayano Aishi.
The stabbing stopped as Megami took her final breath, the last thing she would ever hear would be the object that was used to bring her to her demise jabbing into her perpetrators throat.
The last thing she would feel would be the immense pain in her chest and the blood on her clothes and face that leaked and choked from the person above her as they coughed up heaps of blood.
Ayano dragged the bodies into the student council room, closing the door behind them.
Finally...
She pondered for a moment, should she leave them or clean them?
Ayano looked at the blood seeping under the door.
She knew that if she left the bodies, it would only cause more issues for her. So, she took a deep breath and made her way to the home economics room, stuffing trash bags in her bag and filling a bucket with water and bleach, dipping a brush in and taking the broomstick with her.
She started with bagging the lifeless corpses below her, dragging Osoro off of Megami and dumping her by the meeting table before covering Megami in a trash bag and moving her out the way too to reach the pile of blood on the floor.
She made quick work of cleaning all the blood from the dark brown, wooden floors and cleaning the blood that seeped into the hallway.
She grabbed one of the bodies and walked down the stairs to dump the body in the furnace, she then did the same with the other and dumped the knife into the furnace too before setting it ablaze.
Now, the only thing standing in her way was Budo.
And she won't let him get away alive.
*Author's Note: I had an idea and ran with it before I could doubt myself, so I hope you enjoyed! The next chapter will be the last chapter if my idea works out well but I may do a small epilogue featuring how BuTaro's life turned out! Until next time <3*
