Rui woke up in a hospital bed with nobody beside him, as expected. He had nothing to do anymore. Everything hurt, he couldn't stop thinking about what he did. But he didn't fully regret it, the only thing he really regretted was losing Tsukasa and Nene.

He kept replaying the scene in his head, where everything was covered in fire and regret. Was life really over for him? And even if it wasn't, who else was left for him..? He saw a silhouette he could recognize from a mile away.

"Rui.." Mizuki walked into the room, Rui couldn't tell if what they felt was anger, or pity.. they sat next to him. "You never listen to me do you?" They seemed apologetic, maybe there was hope for Rui after all..? wrong. Mizuki had their hands around Rui's neck in seconds.

"You really think im going to forgive you..? After you ruined everybody's life's and ignored me every single time i warned you?!" Mizuki's eyes were filled with nothing but rage. Rui could feel it. "Y—You're choking me..!"

Rui desperately gasped for air, when Mizuki came to their senses. "I—I'm sorry.." Rui was terrified of Mizuki and they could tell. "C—Can we pretend i never did that..?" Mizuki approached Rui, he backed away. "Stop it!"

"You're the one i should be scared of! Why am i even here!? I hate you!!" Mizuki ran off. All hope was destroyed. He had nobody that cared for him in this world, and he was the cause of it once again. He had the rest of the day to think, did he really regret it..?

Doctors and police came in and out of his room every second. None of them knew the fire was his doing.. "thank you, Mizuki.." he shed a tear. They cared for him deep inside. He still hoped Tsukasa did too..

He felt lightheaded.. about to pass out, Nene came in the room "Don't think im here to forgive you." She ran over to him and slapped him. "This is for what you did to all of us." She ran away crying.. it was decided. Everybody hated him.

Maybe he didn't regret it. Maybe he wanted to do more than that.. after all, who cared? Nobody gave a fuck if he destroyed the entire city? Who gave a fuck if he killed somebody? Who gave a fuck if he killed.. himself.

Everything was over. He was enraged again, the same feeling he had before, the feeling of losing his mind. He was spiraling, nothing mattered anymore. That slap was his last straw. The doctors had to come in the room to calm him down

Everything hurt. He wanted to leave and destroy everything he ever loved. He had his plan ready, he'd go put the way everything started; fire.

That same night he escaped the hospital, he was officially a wanted man, at the age of seventeen. He once again, isolated himself. The one thing he promised not to do.. the scene repeated itself. Paper all scattered around his apartment

Except this time he had nobody to miss, nobody to motivate him to leave his room. So he'd stay there forever if he had to. Multiple times he heard knocks on his door along with familiar voices. The voice of a boy along with an androgynous voice.

But he was too closed off in his own mind to listen to any of them, they did seem nostalgic.. but not enough for him to open the door. Seeing other people through his window fed into his rage even more.

Eventually, he had closed all windows, and locked his door. Completely closed off, his plan had started. He didn't care if it was a crime, he didn't care about all the people he's hurt. He only cared about himself, and his rage.

He honestly didn't know how he could still sleep at night, the nightmares were unbearable. Variating from Tsukasa to Emu. the only thing they had in common is how much the nightmare made him hate himself.

An intense knock on his door woke him up, he chose to ignore it, as always. But this time it was different.. it seemed like more than one person trying to break it. He tried to hold off the door with all his might.

To no expense. Mizuki and Tsukasa broke in.
