YOU are the Yandere!

Chapter 4

The orc shifts it's body sideways, seemingly uninterested in your group. But you know better than to let your guard down. The orcs that come out of the gates are intelligent as humans, some maybe even more so.

"MC..." Yvon whispers, fear evident in his voice. "What do we do? Can the four of us take it?"

"Don't speak." You warn, eye still trained on the orc. You're reminded of a video where a gorilla acts uninterested, then abruptly charging. There's no telling when it's going to attack...

The orc's body tightens. Then without warning, it sprints at your group, closing the meters wide gap in just milliseconds. If you were a normal human, there would be no way you could react in time.

But you're not.

Your body spins as you slam into the monster with a powerful back kick. The impact numbs your leg and sends vibrations throughout your whole body, but it lands on target, stunning the orc as the force travels through its skull.

You try to pull away immediately, but something's wrong. The orc caught your leg, now holding onto it tightly in its right hand.

"Ah-"

Your eyes widen as the orc's fist drives into your stomach, smashing you into the ground.

The impact is unlike any you've ever experienced before. You cough, gasping for air as the world suddenly goes fuzzy. Saliva drips down your chin as your diaphragm trembles, desperately trying to recover from the impact.

The orc grunts, seemingly confused that you're still alive. Then it shrugs, raising its arm once again for another blow.

"MC!" Julian screams, throwing himself recklessly at the orc, but Yvon reacts quickly. He manages to grab Julian's backpack, holding him firmly in place.

The orc punches again, and the force drives you across the rooftop, parts of the roof caving in as you nearly black out.

Then, it turns away from you, seemingly disinterested as it stalks towards two of Tahl's friends.

"Ugh..." You wince, trying to stand up on trembling legs. Something is wrong. You can't catch your next breath, and your legs feel extremely weak. You stumble forwards a few steps, before falling face first onto the ground below.

"MC!" Julian rushes towards you, lifting your body from the ground as he screams your name with panicked breaths. "MC! Are you okay? Please answer me..."

You try to respond, to reassure him that yes, you're fine. But instead of words, all that manages to come out is a painful cough.

"MC..." Julian glances at you worriedly as he pulls you protectively closer. He looks like he's about to cry, and even though it's a life or death situation, his worry for you makes you feel a little bit better.

The orc ignores you two, still at the bodies of Tahl's friends that were knocked unconscious from your fight earlier. Their two bodies have been torn apart in a horrifying display, and the orc playing with their now mangled corpses.

The monster is taking its time to kill you all, seemingly playing with its prey.

"Please..." Julian whispers, tightly clutching onto your hand.

"Don't be scared." You finally manage to say.

Though you can barely stand right now, there's still a final option left available to you.

The orc seems bored, like it's just going through the motions and taking out the trash. It clearly doesn't see any of you as a threat, but its relaxed attitude is also an unexpected blessing.
