Yes. No.

Sunny groaned in pain. Omori put his hand on Sunny's head. "Don't worry, Sunny. I will take good care of everything."

Sunny... or rather Omori woke up in the hospital. With emotionless face they stood up and saw his headspace friends and Stranger. They left their room.
Headspace friends went up, Stranger went down.

We don't trust Strangers.

They went straight up, after their friends.

They found themselves on the roof.

Sunny and Basil were transported to the hospital. Kel couldn't sleep after that, as well as his friends, so they begged Polly to get them to the hospital. She openly agreed, yet still in shock.

The three arrived at hospital. Kel wanted to run, but staff said no running or making loud noises. First they checked up on Sunny, but he was sleeping, so they went to Basil's room.

"What THE HELL happened this night, Basil??!"

"I... I saved him from Something."

"What Something?!? What are you talking about?! You literally gouged his eye out!! I would hit you, but you're already pretty beaten up."

"Oh. I-I did?"

"Yeah dumbass. Would you explain everything?"

Kel and Hero just sat by Basil's bed. Aubrey was still standing in front, looking directly at Basil who was avoiding eye contact.

"Actually... I have something more important to tell you and it's the reason I... Sunny would be relieved to know that I told you... Maybe I can make up with him."

Basil's voice started to get shakey.

"It's about Mari's death."

...

Everyone eyes widened. Aubrey sat down.

"I know we haven't been talking about it for 4 year, but it really got overwhelming. And we were so scared. A-and everybody was shocked and didn't even want to talk about it...
Maybe it's not a best time to bring it up, but i'm sure Sunny can't bear it too."

...

"At the night just before the recital... I went to Sunny just to cheer him up. B-but when I got here... S-Sunny and Mari were arguing at the top of the stairs..."

Basil tried to catch his breath, slowly breaking down.

"T-The violin was laying on the bottom of the stairs, broken."

"A-and then... Sunny tried to r-run away but M-Mari blocked his path.

And then... He pushed her. He didn't mean to! Mari was really angry, I don't think Sunny saw Mari angry ever before! A-and he would never know how to react...

But it was over. Nothing could be fixed."

All of them were of course in shock. Hero stared emotionlessly, Aubrey had angry tears in her eyes, but Kel was just sad, Basil somehow could feel that Kel understands.

"But you probably wonder how she ended up on the ... I'm taking full blame on me. Sunny did nothing and was too scared... And I know you won't forgive me. But you deserve to know."

Basil's shakey voice eventually became a shakey whisper.

"After he killed her... we brought her upstairs and laid in bed. Sunny was panicked and crying. We waited for her to wake up, but there was nothing. I didn't want anybody to take Sunny away. I couldn't bear the thought of losing my best friend. Then I came up with an idea.
