» (Y/N)'s P.O.V «

I removed my tears as I walk away but it is still continuously falling. I proceeded to my lab getting and dragging some pillows, stuff toys, and drinks. I brought them to my dorm. I slammed the door closed and locked the door. I dropped the things I was holding and slumped on my bed, hugging a pillow crying on it.  

" Did I do something wrong? " I talked to myself.

" Am I really a lucky student? " 

" Do Kokichi really hate me? "

" Do Shuichi and Maki already hate me? "

" Do the other students hate me? "

" Who is the mastermind? "

" I love him like too much. " 

" I hate everything. " 

I talked to myself until I fall asleep. 

" Ah! (y/n)!! " My other self called, approaching me. I on the other hand was looking at the blue sky, laying on the soft grass but crying. My tears were like watering the grass. I seated and removed my tears. And sniffed while standing up, dusting my clothes. I looked at my other self with a blank face but it didn't last. 

" H-Hello...Hoshi. " I said, crying again approaching her fast and hugged her. 

" K-Kokichi, he...he hates me, right? Did he r-really just u-used me? " I asked, crying and sniffing. Hoshi stayed silent and hugged me back, patting my back. 

" I think he has his own reason so maybe that's why he did it." She said in a reassuring voice. 

" R-Really? " I asked, pulling away. Hoshi smiled softly and nodded. I removed my tears with the sleeves of my clothes and I laid on the soft grass, looking at the clouds. 

" I wish we could just go to the old good days..." I muttered, Hoshi also laid beside me and looked at the sky.

" Say, Hoshi...do you like Kokichi? " I asked, looking at her in the side. She stayed silent and sighed. 

" I don't know...I don't even know my own emotions for him. " She answered, looking at me.

" Ah is that so...well I like him. I just realized it. " I muttered. She hummed and looked at the sky again. 

I seated and let Hoshi seat too, I fixed her hair into space buns so that the two of us could not look the same. I began distracting myself by looking at the garden and memorizing every flower in the area.

" Roses, Tulips, Dandelions, Sunflower, Daffodil, Marigold, Daisy, Carnations, Gerberas, and lastly...Lavenders. " I muttered, pointing each flower into their names.

" Heyyy it's time for you to wake up. " Hoshi said, placing two flower crowns made of lavender in my head. I touched the flower crowns and smiled a little.

" I don't want to wake up though. " I said, crossing my arms. 

" You need to. " Hoshi said, grabbing both of my shoulders. I sighed and nodded, she smiled and patted my head. 

My eyes fluttered open and I felt a heavy thing in my waist, I looked at it and it was Kokichi hugging me. His face has dried tears and his hair was messy. I noticed that my clothes were wet.

Did he cry on me?

 He was peacefully sleeping yet his face looked sad. I looked away and just stared at the ceiling and felt flower crowns in my head. I reached it and looked at it.

It was the crowns Hoshi gave to me...huh? How? 

I look at Kokichi and caressed his cheeks, wiping the tears away. My lips quivered as I remember what he said and the memories with him flashed on my mind. I cried again, my tears falling on his cheeks. 

Kokichi's eyes shotted open, I cried more as I saw his violet orbs. He showed a guilt expression and pushed me on the bed, making him above me. I looked away and tried to remove him but I can't, my weak heart can't. It feels like my whole body is in pain. I can't stop crying either. I'm too weak when it comes to love. 

" I'm sorry, (n/n)-chan. I didn't mean to say that. It's just part of my plan...I was ready to tell all of that without being hurt but when I saw you crying, it hurts. I can't tell you about my plan because you'll be sad, I don't want to see you sad so...it's c-complicated. " Kokichi said. I want to speak yet I don't have the right words to say.

" Do you hate me? Maybe it's just really nice if we didn't meet each other right? I'm sorry (n/n)...I'm sorry. No, I didn't use you, I found you kind and lovely because of helping us find a new headquarters that's why the other members thought of getting you as a new member. They liked how you are around. They liked you for how you treat them, on how you show your kindness towards them. The members feel that but I also feel that. I was thankful to meet you yet I hurt you. " Kokichi said, laughing bitterly but also crying at the same time. 

" Forgive me (n/n)-chan. Come on say something...please...? Let's go back to the old good days. " Kokichi muttered, I looked at him in awe and wipe his tears away.

" Okay...I forgive you. Just...don't cry." I said, bringing him into a hug. Kokichi hugged me back, crying on my shoulders.  And muttered a sorry and a thank you over and over again until he falls asleep. 

Can't tell me the plan, huh...? I just really have a bad feeling about this plan of his. He did mention that I'll be sad...does that mean that he's gonna di-

I shook my head to push the thoughts away and removed Kokichi above me. I put him carefully in the bed and covered him in a blanket. I collected the scattered stuff toys and pillows on the floor and placed them neatly in one corner. 

If I remember it right...there will be some junks given by Monokuma every time someone dies that will be opening secret rooms.

I fixed myself and placed a light kiss on Kokichi's forehead. I forgive him too fast. What could I do? I taught myself to forgive someone, I love. 

" You better keep our promise, okay? " I muttered and put the other flower crown on his head while the other one was on my head. I seated on the floor and began scribbling in my notebook. I crossed Gonta and Miu's names. And wrote the other recent dreams, I received.  

I stood up and dusted my clothes, I tensely opened the door and exited it looking around to see if there were people but I sighed in relief as they were not around. I proceeded to the 1st floor of the school and walked to the checkered-looking door. My instincts brought me here, I slowly twist the doorknob and I was surprised as it was not locked. As I entered it, I witnessed a long spiral stair. 

I used the stairs to go up and saw an ultimate lab, looking at it. It's Kaito's, as I entered it I observed the room. It resembles a simulation for being inside a spaceship, with a control panel in the middle. 

Shuichi may open the checkered door with a key...then the other junks could be keys too, right? Maybe he'll be in the courtyard because I saw a different looking in the wall near Miu's lab.

I walked to the courtyard and saw the tall big metal door was glowing. I entered it and saw a hallway that looks like a maze and heard some voices. An alarm echoed in the area, I strolled to where the sound is coming. 

I peaked at them, it was Shuichi, Keebo and, Monokuma, behind them, was a huge shutter with an electric barrier. As they were talking, I just glanced from behind and listened. Monokuma removed the electric barrier and said that it would only be once and the Monokuma disappeared. I approached them before they could lift up the shutter.

" (y-y/n)? " Keebo asked surprised.

" I heard what you guys are talking about, may I join? However, if you don't want my portrayal I will still be going, and please just pretend I wasn't there. " I said. I looked at Shuichi that made him jump in surprise. 

" Ah, sorry about the slap Shu-kun. I didn't mean it but please take my words seriously. " I said, smiling at him even though it looks weird cause it didn't match my dull eyes. 

" It's fine...it was also my fault though. " Shuichi said.

" You could come with us! That's what friends do. " Keebo said, I smiled softly.

After all, I was still considered a friend.

" Okay! We should go now. " I said entering the secret room behind the shutter and Shuichi and Keebo followed me. 

" An Exisal?! " Shuichi exclaimed, I looked at where he was looking. 

" All five of them are here! It's too dangerous! Let's run! " Keebo exclaimed. 

" I think it's fine...it wasn't moving or attacking us. " I said, calming them down. 

" Oh, now that you mention it...you're right. I wonder what's going on. " Keebo said.

Then suddenly Monokuma appeared.

" Ah, (y/n) is also in here. Anyway, this is actually the Exisal hangar! Yep, this is where Exisals are stored! " Monokuma said, laughing. Then he explained to us how these exisals can't be used anymore. Then again, Monokuma disappeared. We began inspecting the area. 

There was a washing machine for cleaning the exisals. There was also a hydraulic press, it has an up and down button, as well as an emergency stop button. There was also a safety notice.

" This hydraulic press uses an infrared sensor. For safety reasons, this device will come to a halt when the sensor detects a living organism. " Shuichi read out loud.

" If someone accidentally ended up in the press, the machine would stop. " Shuichi said. 

" Let's try it? " Keebo suggested. 

" What? " I questioned confusingly.

 Keebo suddenly got under the press. We tried it but it didn't stop making Keebo rolled out of it. 

" Geez, that's scary. " I muttered. Keebo and Shuichi argued but it stopped fast too. I inspected the small room at the back, it only has a bathroom and a small window. I just exited it again defeated because it looks like it's not important. There was also a painting machine and an operation panel. 

After that, we exited and proceeded to the fifth floor for the last key. Shuichi used the key on the extravagant door.

" Huh? The key works but it won't turn... " Shuichi said.

A ticking sound was heard, making me look at it confused. As I was about to go near it, Shuichi grabbed my hand and dragged me away from the door and the door exploded.

" What the hell is that?! " I exclaimed. 

" It's a trap, we almost got hurt. " Shuichi said, surprised.

I walked inside it and tried to open the red-looking door but it won't budge. 

" What wrong with this door? " I asked. 

" Why don't you try lock picking it? " Shuichi asked.

" I don't have the needles. " I answered, sighing. 

" Oh, that research lab is closed because its owner is dead! " Monokuma said, suddenly appeared. 

" The owner is dead...? " Shuichi asked. 

" Per the rules, if a student dies before their ultimate research lab is open then that lab will remain closed. " Monokuma said. 

" That's the first time I'm hearing this. " Shuichi said. I sighed and looked at the door's lab while Shuichi is talking to Monokuma. 

Who owns this lab...? 

" Ah! There you are, Shuichi and (y/n)! " A familiar voice said, making me turn around and saw Keebo. 

He mentioned that Tsumugi said that we need to gather at the dining hall because Tsumugi found a flashback light. We proceeded to the dining hall and everyone was surprised to see me. I hid behind Shuichi and Shuichi said that it's fine, calming them down.

" Yeah, if you don't want me here...just pretend I'm not here. " I said.

" No, it's fine. But is everyone here? This is serious! " Tsumugi asked. 

" Yeah, you found the flashback light, didn't you? Let use it already! " Kaito said. 

" Oh...sorry. It's not the flashback light... " Tsumugi apologized.

" It's not? I honestly thought that's what all this about. " Keebo said. 

 " Then why did you call us all here!? I had to go to the bathroom! " Himiko exclaimed. 

" I found...something pretty serious. I thought I should tell everyone right away... " Tsumugi said. 

" So you used the flashback light, so we could be here fast? " I asked. " And ah, was it about the graffiti? " I asked. 

" Yes, it's about that. There's more added to them again. " Tsumugi answered. 

" And the sentence is... The world is mine Kokichi Ouma, right? " I asked. 

" Yeah, how did you know? " Tsumugi asked. 

" I dunno, maybe a lucky guess. " I answered, shrugging my shoulder. They looked at me confused and I just smiled at them, waving goodbye while walking away.

I really had a feeling that one of us...is the mastermind. 

As time goes on, I looked around at Maki's lab and Shuichi's lab. I also checked Tsumugi's, Himiko's, and Keebo's. They all look normal, nothing suspicious. I thought that if I check their labs, I'll know who would be the mastermind but no luck...

I clicked my tongue in annoyance as the nighttime announcement has been announced. I walked into my dorm and entered it. I saw the bed was neatly fixed and no Kokichi was around. I put my things on my table and kept the flower crown on my head and flopped on the bed. Staring at the ceiling, I began talking to myself. 

So the one who could be the mastermind is Himiko, Kaito, Tsumugi, Keebo, and Kokichi. And Kokichi's plan was ending the killing game...but how could he possibly do that? 

I talk to myself until I fall asleep.
