Rachel spent a few days alone in her dorm, asking Helena to go sleep in Constance's instead of hers. She was done with life, done with romantic, done with everything. Why did her life have to be so sad, why was she so incredibly unlovable? Even her parents didn't love her and had given her up for adoption right away, not caring to even think about keeping her. According to Nanako, her parents had told her that they would've aborted Rachel if it wasn't for the expenses of the procedure. That was the only reason she was even alive, her birth parents being too poor to afford an abortion. "Maybe it would've been better.." she thought to herself hugging her knees. She sat in her dorm's bathroom, scissors in her hands.

She had done it again. She hurt herself because she was weak and feeling the need to do it at every opportunity. "It's not enough..." Rachel thought bandaging her wounds. Nothings ever enough anymore. She just wanted it to end badly. A life that shouldn't have been carried out into the world. She sighs heavily as she cleans the scissors too and puts them away. She layed down on her bed for now. Her purple school uniform jacket laying next to her. Right now she was too tired to care about not wearing the school uniform correctly. In fact she even wears her hair open, even though she normally dislikes that.

"I need distraction..." She muttered and stood up. The broken girl pulled down her sleeves and started walking around the dorm hall, still not having put on the uniform jacket. Not like anyone cared, in the dorm building there was no uniform to wear. Rachel looked at all the people. She saw everyone getting along. Everyone having someone that cared, someone that loved them deeply and would miss them if they disappeared. She got no one. If she had the choice, she would pay anything in the world to have someone like that too. "[Redacted], why did you have to make me so miserable. What have I done to make you hate me so much?" She asked silently, so no one heard, staring into the sky. To her surprise she got a reply. She heard a quiet voice in her head.

"Rachel, there's just no destiny for you. No future. Your being is entirely useless for me now. You're no longer needed, it would be better if you make it quick. I can't wait to have you out of my wonderful world."  Tar's charming voice ringing in her ears. Rachel started shaking, the thought a god was wanting her to.. she did not even want to think about it. "Even God's don't need me..." Rachel muttered in a broken voice. She made her way back into her dorm and broke down right when she came in, crying again. "How did I deserve that... Why did you have to let me be born... It's not fair... Why do I have to fix the mistakes of adults when this is way harder for me to do than anywhere else..." The girl sobbed and started chewing on her nails in nervousness.

She had to do it. She had to fix the mistake and erase her existence. It was the only way she could apologize for being such a useless existence. She went to the shop nearby the school and got a rope.  She went into the nearby forest with it, her goal set. There was no going back.

Tar laughed about her from its viewpoint. "Such a dumb weak girl. She will have memories full of pain, delicious for me to taste..." It stated. It could already taste it. His husband, the cupid, looked concerned. "Tar you actually told her to... Y-you can't do that? Don't you care at all about your creations? You can wait till she dies a natural death, not drive her into suicide." Nashi exclaimed, panicking on the inside. "It's too late, she seems pretty set. I will have a feast tonight." He laughed and stared down at Rachel. She looked like an ant to him. A stupid useless ant he could crush if he wanted to.

Rachel finally found a good spot. A place no one would see her and still she would see everyone, dying with the view of the town she spent her life in. She laughed bitterly. "This is the end... I will do all of you a favor. A favor you don't have to repay, a favor you're happier with. Desmond I'm sorry, I have been too weak to be worthy enough to help you.." she apologized quietly, putting her hands together like in prayer, before she began tying the rope to a tree.

When she was done she climbed up the branch, she tied the rope to and pulled the rope up as well, taking the noose in her two hands. "This is it..." Rachel mumbled looking up at the sky. "See [Redacted]? It's what you wanted isn't it?  I'm gonna do this. I can't keep living as myself anymore. I just can't, the stress... The responsibilities... Feelings like love and hate and this goddamn jealousy... They will all be gone now." She stood up now standing on the branch. "YOU HEAR ME? IT'S ALL OVER! I'LL BE FREE. PEOPLE LIKE ME ARE ONLY NEEDED ONE WAY:

DEAD!"

That's when she jumped down with the noose around her neck immediately doing it's job tying around her neck tightly. She let out a last hitched breath as the choking was hurting her, but she tried to close her eyes.

Suddenly she felt herself getting pulled up.

"Goddamn Rachel, what are you thinking, are you stupid?" She heard someone ask. She recognized the voice.
"YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY WANT TO DIE, YOU STUPID FUCKING IDIOT." She would hear the voice yell. It was unusual to hear it yell. He never yelled. Michael had always been cold and calm. Michael was here. Here for her. Rachel opened her eyes. "Michael?" She coughed, her throat still hurting from being chocked. Michael looked unusually distressed. It was the first time she almost saw him cry. Michael opened his mouth, his voice shaky.

"Don't try it again... Please.."
