End? [Part 4]

영원히 함께하잔 그 약속
이제는 없는 거야

❝ That promise we made to be together forever no longer exists ❞

The doors leading to the cafeteria burst open, Naegi and Sayaka walked in.

"Hey guys, we're back!" Sayaka announced cheerfully.

"Heh, 'bout time" Mondo clicked his tongue and shook his head. "That'll teach ya' a lesson not to mess with me!"

"S-Sorry" Naegi said in defeat.

"Anyways" Sayaka started, trying to change the subject. "What did you guys find? Has anybody seen Kirigiri-san?"

Everybody shook their heads.

"I think she's still looking around" Asahina said. "So, anybody wanna report back on what you found?"

"Oh, we tried to open the front door" Celeste said.

"I tried kickin' it open. That thing's as hard as iron" Mondo said as he leaned back on his chair.

"That's because it is made out of iron" Celeste smiled but there was a hint of annoyance in her voice.

"Well, when we were walking down the halls, Sakura-chan and I found a stairwell leading to the second floor!" Asahina said. "But the shutters were down though, so we couldn't get through.. Hm, anything else?"

"The private rooms in the dorm area were nice enough for the time being" Yamada said and scratched his head. "Well, minus the surveillance and iron plates"

"The refrigerator was filled with food enough for everyone" Chihiro chimed in. "S-So I guess food isn't really a problem"

"Food? Hm, I guess that bear really does want us to stay here" Celeste said to herself. "Ah, a closed area we can't escape"

Fukawa suddenly let out a frustrated sigh. "Ugh, what should I do?!" she yelled to herself.

"Didn't you hear the bear?" Togami spat, feeling rather annoyed by Fukawa's constant complaining. "He said if you wish to escape, all you need to do is kill somebod--"

Togami was cut off when someone burst through the door. It was Kirigiri and she seemed out of breath.

"Ah, Kirigiri-san!" Naegi said. "What happened to you?"

"I-I-I think you should all s-see this.." she said out of breath. "[y/n]-san.. s-she's--"

Togami was the first one to arrive at [y/n]'s door. He adjusted his breathing and waited for everybody to arrive.

When Kirigiri said she had found [y/n] dead in her room, well, he didn't know why, but he couldn't stop himself from running straight to the scene.

"Why should I care?" he had wondered to himself. "Why do I want to see her so badly?"

"T-Togami-kun! Wait up!" Sayaka and the others ran up to him as he stared motionlessly at [y/n]'s bedroom door. "Is everything okay?"

"Open the door" he said, ignoring her question. "Now"

Kirigiri stepped up and placed her hand on the door handle. Hesitantly, she pushed it open.

Togami's stomach dropped.

There she is. Lying on the floor.

Blood was everywhere.

Just then, Monokuma's childish voice rang throughout the whole school.
