Surprisingly, almost everyone arrived on time. 

"Hey everyone!" Shin cheered, taking his seat.

"So chef, what are we having for dinner?" Goro said, following suite. 

"Hold on, everyone isn't here yet," Maina sighed. Everyone looked around, that's when we noticed that Kei and Emika haven't arrived yet. I suddenly began to sweat.

"Where are Ms. Mayu and Junka?" I heard Burai question. 

"I'm sure they're just a little late."  Karen sighed.

"How would yawl know?" Big Mac asked, beginning too get up from his seat. 

"I'll go see where they are." Maina said, getting up from their chair and heading toward the exit. Before she could leave, however,

"Where are you going?" Kei stated. They finally arrived.

"What took you so long?" Fuyu asked, letting out a sigh.

"We left our post exactly at 5." Emika responded, taking her seat to my left. 

"Why would you do that?" Hanzo questioned, poking his robotic eye.

"We simply wanted to make sure that everyone got here before us." Kei responded, with Emika nodding.

"Well now that everyone's here... can we eat now? I haven't eaten all day." Unagi questioned, hunger clearly shown on her face. 

"What? Why?" TJ asked.

"I was just so excited for this party that I decided to just wait for dinner."

"Before we eat, can I take a picture with all of us?" I asked, opening up the camera app from my e-handbook."

"You want to take a picture of us?" Daisuke questioned.

"Yeah, when I ate dinner with my clubmates, we always take a picture of all of us before we eat. I don't know why we do it. It's sort of a tradition I guess." 

"Wayul, shoot awf." Big Mac stated calmly.

"You might want to rephrase that," Fuyu responded. Everyone chuckled at her comment. I got up and turned the camera toward me, and made sure everyone was in frame. 

"Alright, everyone ready?" I heard various yeses and saw nods among the crowd. I took the picture and looked at it. Everyone seems so happy, almost as if there was no- wait... something is wro-"

"Hey, can I see it!"  I heard Shin shout. I took my seat and allowed everyone to see the photo. 

"You're lucky I let you take a photo of me," Karen bluntly stated.

"Ugh, lets just eat already." Goro pinched the bridge of his nose, sighing.

"You sure can. I prepared Bacon Wrapped Dates Stuffed with Blue Cheese for everyone's appetizer. Our main entre will be Chestnut Streusel Crusted Steak which I will get for everyone later." Moeru responded. I took the date from the table and took it to my mouth. Immediately, my mind took me back to my home. I remembered my cousin, who was an inspiring chef trying to make this same exact food. The taste of this food reminded me of my home, my family. I felt a tear roll down my face.

"Are you okay?" Daisuke asked. 

"Yeah, I'm fine. This is just really bringing back some memories. Thanks Moeru." 

"No worries. This isn't exactly the first time someone cried over my food," Moeru stated. I noticed that Big Mac, Shin, Unagi, Fuyu, TJ, and even Hanzo surpisingly had tears in their eyes.

"Thus iz amazin', Moeru!" Big Mac sighed with a smile plastered on his face. 

"It sorta reminds me of mom's cooking!" Shin followed.

"Yeah," Fuyu agreed.

"You really are the Ultimate Gourmet!" Hanzo cheered.

"Aw, you making me blush," Moeru responded with a hand behind his head and a blush across his face.

"Eh, not as good as your sister's cooking," Karen bluntly stated. Moeru visibly cringed. 

"KAREN!" Maina shouted.

"What? I'm just being honest. Isn't honesty the best policy?" Karen said sarcastically.

"It's still rude." Burai sighed. We all continued eating our food. 

"So, I'm going to go get the tea." I said, leaving to the kitchen. I noticed Moeru following me, along side Daisuke and Big Mac.

"We're gonna go get the steak." Moeru sighed. Once I entered the kitchen I began pouring the tea, adding a little extra to one cup. I turned to see TJ and Hanzo.

"Ah!"

"Sorry for popping in unannounced but, may we help you serve the tea?" Hanzo asked. I nodded.

"Thanks." TJ sighed. I handed them different cups of tea, keeping the one with a little extra to myself. Did they-no I'm sure at least TJ would've said something. We all exited the kitchen and gave everyone their tea. I got various thank yous from everyone from the group, save for Karen. We finally sat down and thanked Moeru for the food. I ate the steak and immediately euphoria over took me. I reluctantly drank the tea to wash it down.

"Man, this steak is delicious!" Goro sighed happily. 

"I agree," Burai added.

"Um..." Fuyu sighed, placing one hand to her stomach.

"What's wrong, Fuyu?" Hanzo asked.

"Does any one else-" Fuyu groaned and made a beeline toward the exit. That's when it hit me. I suddenly got a sharp stomach ache. From the look of everyone else's faces and postures, it hit them too.

"Oh god!" Shin shouted exiting the dinning hall. 

"There's no way I'm removing the time limit now!" Hanzo followed.

"What's going on?!" Moeru screamed. Everyone left the dinning hall one by one. I was last to leave. I toss what ever else I didn't need into the trash. I quickly ran into my room and tried to calm the stomach ache down. Eventually, I finally fell asleep.

??? POV

My stomach ache never went away. After feeling a strange substance coming out of my mouth and noseI ran into the bathroom and checked the mirror... its blood. I suddenly began to cough up more and more. Eventually it became too hard to move. I felt tears stream down my face. It was hard to breathe...

"What's... Why me? Why now? Please... someone save..." Eventually every thing faded to black. I couldn't feel anything anymore... I'm sorry everyone... I couldn't keep my promise to...
