Arisu pov
Me, Chishiya and y/n approached the door. I turn to the short guy, "What's going on?" He didn't look at me back but replied none the less, "no clue, but it's got to be something pretty serious." We walked in as the doors creaked behind us.

We were greeted by Hatter lying dead on the table. Everything fell silent until Tatta and Ann walked in, "apparently, he couldn't clear the game. Maintenance team just happened to find him when we were filling up gas." There was a pause as Ann walked over to the body.

"Hey, do me a favour and keep your hands off him." The leopard print Militant walked past her. Niragi was his name.. "You're obsessed with dissecting things."  He finished.

Ann looked down at the wound, "This is from a bullet, did the game he was playing involve guns?" Everyone began speaking up about what they heard. I turned to Y/n to find her already staring at me. She gave me a look as if to say, "What do we do?" Me and her always managed to talk through our eyes, it was funny like when she teases me about being Usagis boyfriend. Which I'm not!!!

I turned to Chishiya who ignored my gaze, still looking at the body. The long black haired woman, Mira spoke up finally. "Nobody says a word about this, understood? We don't want any panic."

Y/NS POV
The second in command walked forward, "I will step up as leader as I am number 2." He crossed his arms but there came Niragi ready to crush that guy dreams of getting out of here. "Wait a second, shouldn't the strongest person be the leader? In case you didn't know, we are the one who's been getting rid of the traitors! This isn't fair!" His voice was raspy, like he needed to clear his throat.

"When number 1 leaves or does we all go up a number, we all know that." Number 2 doesn't back down but neither does Niragi, "Well our dictator is dead on the table." He pointed his gun at Hatter then turned back to the man. "A power has shifted hasn't it, let's be democratic and go with the majority.." he chucked. What is he up to..

He paced around the room towards each and every person, "Raise your hand if you would like Aguni to be our new leader?" Nobody raised their hand.

I watched as Niragi turned to Last boss, "Are you all serious right now? Last boss." He nodded as Last boss pointed his sword at Ann. I rolled my eyes and tried to hold back a smirk. Niragi was seriously using force for a vote and couldn't scare Ann himself..

Last boss pointed his katana at Ann, "so I will ask again, who thinks Aguni should be leader?" Ann raised her hand and there was a moment of silence once again. "This is not a democracy." Mira spoke up. Niragi circled round her, "but.. I think it is, you can vote however you want right?" She raised her hand.

I looked at Niragi's face, he looks like a girl... Then my focus went back onto number 2 whose name was Kuzuryu. "How about the former number two over there, what do you think?" He raised his hand.

Niragi matched over to Chishiya and pointed his gun at him, "annnd what about you?" He put his gun down and walked towards the crusty guy as he stayed out and did not raise his hand. "Chishiya.. you're not looking down on us are you?" He spoke like a big kid. "Who? The morons in here?" Niragi got agitated and pointed the gun up to Chishiyas face. "You piss me off sometimes you know that, you really think you're better than us!"

Chishiya raised both his hands and smiled happily, "I vote Aguni as out new leader!" He spoke loud and clear almost in a joking matter. "That's what you wanna hear right?" Niragi scoffed and walked over to Arisu, "Hey.. why you looking so freaked out? Thought I told you to give me and answer there,, whose side are you on anyways?" Last boss scared Arisu with his katana and he stumbled back. The two edge lords made fun of him then last but not leZt turned to me, who out of everyone.. I still hand my hand down.

Why? Because I honestly thought I wouldn't be noticed... But obviously I was wrong. Niragi walked up to me, "Well what about you, ey gorgeous?" He put his gun under my chin waiting for an answer. "Majority rules already so why does my vote have to count." I spoke boldly.

Telling by his face, this is not the answer he was hoping for. He scoffed and looked around then back at me. I wanted to rip those peircings off his face to wipe the smug expression on his face. "Well, who's to say you won't betray us, I mean your going against our new leader?" He leaned in closer to me.

In the corner of my eye I can see Arisu getting worried for me. I rolled my eyes and raised up my hand, I couldn't be bothered to argue about it like children. Niragi winked at me then went back to Aguni. He is handsome I will give him that, but I don't get flattered by people like him. In fact, I don't try to even engage with people like him!

"We have got a new leader, right!" Niragi laughed. "Hatter would Not allow this if he was alive" Mira carried on but Niragi just laughed again. He walked over to Hatters body and smashed his gun against his face, "but he's not alive, is he?" He continued hitting his face, proving his point. "That's enough." Aguni finally spoke.

"From this day onwards, I will be the beaches new kind." He spoke loud and clear as Niragi just echod behind him. Can't he shut up? He started clapping but stopped when nobody else clapped with him. He spoke of the cards and I side eyes Chishiya, remembering what he had said once before.
