TW:Murder
_______________________________________________

Kanade POV:

-1:23pm-

We were all safe on the cruise.We had left japan an hour ago.Everyone was running around or chilling in the pool,overall having a good time.I sighed,humming a bland tune,watching over the waves.
"Heyyyy Kana,what you doin'?"Said a voice.I turned to see Haruka smiling warmly."Nothing much,your outfit looks great..."I mumbled.A spark came into Haruka's eyes, and she nodded her head."I must be off,see you later..!"She chuckled,walking away.Thats odd...

Suddenly, someone pounced onto my back."Come on, Kanade!Join us in a game of dodgeball but in a pool!"Mizuki giggled,dragging me over to the pool without waiting for my response.

???? POV:

-5:42pm-

I was creeping around,looking for the foolish host of this event.I was carrying An's empty suitcase.You must be wondering why,I assume?You'll find out later!

Finally,I had located Mafuyu all alone.I grabbed a random rope off the floor and walked behind her."I know you're there,I'm not going down without a fight..."She turned around,readying her fists.Her hits were easy to dodge,as she was getting weak and tired.My exact intention.

While she was trying to regain her strength,I dragged the rope up and pressed it against her throat,dragging her towards the suitcase.I managed to get her inside the suitcase,with a rather long tussle.I quickly knotted the rope around her neck."Who a-are y-you..?"She choked.I gave a sick smile."Oh, since you're about to die,I guess I can tell you!"I giggled,crouching on the floor.I held the opening of the suitcase,preparing to close it on a struggling Mafuyu."I'm @#£ @2*^@%!"I chuckled.Mafuyu's eyes widened in shock.I looked at the stairs.I realised the volleyball game was gonna end soon,I needed to hurry!"Goodnight Mafuyu,sleep well."I whispered,closing the suitcase and sealing it shut.

Mafuyu's screams still could be heard.I sigh,picking up the suitcase, and dragged it along the floor.I opened the door to the storage room,where everyone else's suitcases was.I tossed it carelessly in the corner,a muffled scream was heard.I chuckled,rolling my eyes and shutting the door.

Mafuyu POV:

"DON'T LEAVE ME HERE!"I wheezed.The suitcase had little room to move around in,and was extremely airtight.I was both strangled and suffocated at the same time.I don't have long left!I kept punching at the opening,trying to get out.I coughed.Again.And again.But the fourth time was different.I felt a odd liquid leave my throat.I spat it into my hand to see it was a tiny puddle of blood.I kept coughing up more blood,feeling weaker everytime.This is it...

This is the end...

Mizuki POV:

-5:49pm-

"Good game, everyone!"I said proudly.I had Akito and An on my team,they mostly helped me win.While everyone was celebrating their victory or mourning their loss, An had poked my shoulder.I turned to her"I left my toothbrush in my suitcase,can you come with me to get it?"She said nervously.I nodded,leaving with her."We'll be right back!"I announced.

We made it to the storage room,but everything felt...weird...too weird."Hurry up,it feels eerie down here.."I mumbled.An nodded,walking over to her suitcase.She opened it and let out a blood-curdiling scream.

-6pm-

Ichika POV:

I was pacing around the storage room,thinking.We had all heard An's scream and had witnessed Mafuyu's corpse inside her suitcase.Shizuku was bawling her eyes out,with Shiho comforting her.An was rocking back and forth of the floor,looking like she had gone mad.Mizuki was trying their best to calm her down.
"Who was last with Mafuyu?!"I interrogated.Everyone looked at each other,then looked back at me.I sighed.We're getting nowhere...

-6:30-

Everyone was shook about Mafuyu's passing.Shizuku was taken into her and Shiho's room,as Shizuku wanted Shiho to comfort her away from everyone else.I chewed my tongue,deep in thought."How long until we leave this place..?"Tsukasa spoke up.I looked down to face him."I hope we get there before anyone else gets hurt,Tsukasa..."I said quietly,patting his head as a source of comfort.

-9:52pm-

Shiho POV:

Finally, Shizuku had stopped crying.We had changed into our pyjamas,and Shizuku was now sleeping on my chest,eyes still puffy from bawling her eyes out.The door opened and I saw Ichika stiffly walk in."I'm here to check on you!Get some rest,lock your doors before you sleep,please.."She said quietly,walking out.I slipped out of bed and locked the door,then got back into bed and put Shizuku's head on my chest.I turned the lamp off and shut my eyes,praying silently for my sisters safety.
