"A boat beneath a sunny sky,
Lingering onward dreamily
In an evening of July —

Children three that nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Pleased a simple tale to hear —"

"Good morning, friends!" Kaede yelled, the day after Kee's execution. 

They were eating their breakfast.

"Where's Kokichi?" asked Angelica.

"He's tied to a chair," said Kaede.

"Who served as your source of this information?" asked Angelica.

"Naomi. She told me everything." said Kaede. She loved Naomi.

Suddenly, a trapdoor appeared in the centre of the stage.

"That must be Mono," said Angelica, excited for Mono's grand entrance.

The trap door opens.

A hand reaches up on to the stage. Kaede and Angelica look shocked.

"Um... That doesn't look like Mono," Kaede said nervously.

Kokichi climbs up out of the trapdoor and on to the stage. He's wearing a black cape and a black hat. He's holding a raspberry pop bottle, too.

"Guess who's back!" Kokichi said menacingly.

"Uh, you?" asked Angelica.

"BINGO!" Kokichi cried.

"Either Kokichi is back or Mono has disguised himself," said Neko. "Wait, that's not right."

"How did he escape the chair?" asked Maki.

"Simple. I just cut the ropes and my gag!" said Kokichi.

Naomi then stepped on the stage, with a pretty sunflower colored yellow ribbon on her ear instead of a pink ribbon.

"Stop," she said.

But Kokichi wasn't having any of that.

He got a gun and began to shoot Naomi.

Bullets went everywhere.

The Mono Cubs were also near Naomi. Some of them ran for cover while others tried to catch the bullets.

"More dakka." said Kokichi as Naomi was pelted with bullets.

As he did this, he began to sing a song:

"Who's been messing up everything?
It's been Kokichi all along
Who's been pulling every evil string?
It's been Kokichi all along
He's insidious (ha-ha!)
So perfidious
That you haven't even noticed
And the pity is (the pity is)
Pity, pity, pity, pity
It's too late to fix anything
Now that everything has gone wrong
Thanks to Kokichi (ha!)
Naughty Kokichi
It's been Kokichi all along!"

After a thousand bullets, Naomi slumped to the ground. She is so riddled with bullets that she is barely recognizable as a bunny.

Kokichi walked over to Naomi's corpse. He picked up a tattered yellow ribbon off the floor.

He laughed diabolically.

"I am the Mastermind!" He laughed.

Everyone looked shocked at what had just occurred, but no one was more shocked than Kaede.

"You just shot a rabbit repeatedly." said the Ultimate Pianist.

Everyone else had been far away from the bullets and they weren't hurt.

Neko, on the other hand, had stood just close enough to Naomi to hurt herself.

A bullet had grazed her cheek.

"Ahhhh!" She screamed.

"It's okay," said Angie as she put a plaster on the cut cheek as the profusely bleeding ribbon chick held her hand to the grazed cheek.

"I've gotten wounds greater than that as the Ultimate Adventurer," said Rantaro.

"Ultimate Adventurer?" asked Kaede, curious.

"You have two ultimate talents?" asked Angelica.

"I'll tell you how I gained my ultimate title," said the survivor/adventurer.

Everyone listened to Rantaro's story.

"I have six sisters," Rantaro told them. "Betsy,
Emilia, Pasha, Vicky, Reneè, and Mindy. As their loyal older brother, it is my duty to protect them and help them in our caravan. We live in a caravan. Our parents died of old age, long ago. One day, I planned to travel with my five sisters. But they were gone!"

Kaede was curious to hear more.

Rantaro told them about how he travelled the world by boat to search for his sisters. It was a tale of encountering pirates, and it had a ton of beautiful imagery from sailing on a ship. He mentioned that his youngest sister, Mindy, was actually lost while they were docking on his first boating trip.  She was 7 years old when she was lost.

Mono then came in.

"Naomi is dead!" He laughed. "And now..." He strolled over to the pictures of the students. He moved both Haven and Kee's pictures.

He then pressed the button.

Haven's picture spider web cracked, and Kee's picture changed to show what he looked like when he died.

Suddenly, Kokichi (not in his mastermind form) asked Tenko;

"Shall I show you something?"

Tenko: (excited) Oh, I just love surprises!

Kokichi: Trust me. This surprise isn't good.

(He leads her to a dark room. There's a wood chipper in this room.)

Kokichi climbs the ladder leading to it with Tenko.

"This is the surprise?" asked Tenko.

Kokichi turned the wood chipper on.

"Wait, what?!" asked Tenko as Kokichi prepared to push her.

"Three strikes!" Kokichi yelled as he pushed her into the wood chipper and stood in front of the disposer so he could get covered in the results.

"You're out!"
