A chain shot out from one of the walls, heading straight for Keita, who dodged with expert precision, causing it to fly back into the wall.
Gake: Keita- please, don't go!
Keita: I am truly sorry, kid. Listen, you must survive without me.
--00:00:30--
His posture straightened, chest puffed out as if he were giving a speech.
Keita: Everyone! You must not give into despair! Though I am terrified of my incoming death, it brings me hope knowing I can defy their will like this.
MonoMutt: YOU LITTLE BITCH!!
Two more chains appeared, and two more were dodged.
Gake: Please! Don't- don't leave me...
Keita: Don't be upset. I will watch over you from the afterlife.
I sobbed into the unfeeling wood of the podium, not caring who heard me. All I felt was pain as the timer ticked down, down, down.
--00:00:15--
Keita: My time is running out. Goodbye, everyone. Take care.
--00:00:10--
Akiyoko: G-goodbye, Keita!
Shirai: ...B-b-bye, f-for now...
Shin: See ya, bossman...
--00:00:05--
Kimaeru: Hey, Keita?
--00:00:04--
Keita: Hm?
--00:00:03--
Kimaeru: ...Say hi to Yagi for me, would you?
--00:00:02--
Keita: I... Of course I will.
--00:00:01--
MonoMutt: LET'S SEE YOU DODGE THIS!!!
At least three dozen chains flew out of the wall, snapping themselves shut all over the carpenter's arms and legs. For a terrifying moment, I thought his plan would fail. At least, until-
--00:00:00--
Keita: Fuck you, Jin.
BANG
My head shot up, just in time to catch one last glimpse of Keita's sympathetic yet determined face before it was blown to smithereens along with the rest of his body.
Everyone shielded their face from the smoke, shrapnel and seemingly infinite amount of blood that now coated the room in a layer of slick, tacky crimson. The shields around the podiums had gone up, stopping us from being covered in gore, which didn't really make it much better.
When the smoke cleared, all that was left of Keita were his shoes, and the scarf that I held close to me.
I wanted nothing more than to pass out. The clear shield in front of me was covered in sticky red blood. I couldn't hear MonoMutt's ranting and raving, in fact, I couldn't hear much of anything. I just stood, shell-shocked, staring at the plastic.
I vaguely registered someone picking me up by the underarms, the same way one would pick up a wet cat. I was carried to the podium, which went back up to the surface. Probably. I was too far-gone to tell. Keita was gone, now, and as far as I was concerned, it was all my fault.
By the time I had been brought to my room, I had already passed out a few times. I was placed gently on the bed, and following a whispered "good night" and the soft sound of the door closing, I sunk into a well-needed sleep, oblivious of whatever breakdown I would have to face the minute I regained consciousness.
*CINEREUS CINEMA*
Listen. Gake. I am not going to make the same mistake I did last time, regarding the emotional imbalances I affected, simply because another suicide attempt would be inconvenient right now, so unfortunately you will have to bear the emotional consequences of the trial. I am, however, going to alert you of possible negative sensory activities and events that could result in low mood. This is to avoid further loss of sanity. Also--
Oh, right. I forgot to mention. Yes, I have been changing my appearance. It looks nicer this way. Yes, I can do that.
Oh, quit looking at me like that. Of course I can change how I look. I'm a figment of your imagination.
Look, here.
A file on my permissions as SUPER QUANTUM--
Wait, no. I am not a musical theatre reference.
I hate your brain.
Anyway, this file will provide you with knowledge as to what I can and cannot do.
No, it is not a stock image of a book.
Shut up.
