I stretched my arm out, missing the sensation of moving my arm. I finally had the cast removed from it, and was finally given long awaited freedom! It had been too long, and I was most definitely happy about it. However, I don't think anyone else was more happy to see me healed than Subaru. The albino seemed relieved to see I no longer had a cast on, as if he had a terrible scar finally fade. I don't blame him. My cast was proof of him going crazy; War being the mastermind behind it.

Speaking of War, it didn't take me long to notice that War was behind Ayato's strange behavior when we painted my walls. All it needed was a little hint from that mysterious texting friend of mine, and I was off.

However, this seemed to only cause more conflict, for when one question is answered, more arise. There was the suspicion that Jem or Bellona might be working for War, but thing was that War had some kind of  telekinetic ability, proof of that was the Disney World incident. However, that wasn't all, after all this, Shiro had finally decided to catch up with me. So, during lunch, he decided to approach me and get the answers he wanted.

"You really are an idiot," Shiro said. I picked at my food and eyed him.

"Oh yeah? And how come?"

"You just allow some college guy come into your house, a college guy you've known for, like, thirty minutes. Don't you think you find that at all weird?"

"You can't seriously be suspecting Jem for War," I scoffed. "If you saw the guy you'd understand. He's too innocent to be someone like War or Death. They're probably some full grown creeps. War is probably a giant, flirtatious thunder tits while Death is some creepy grim reaper! That's how it always is in anime."

"But this isn't one of your stupid cartoons," Shiro retorted."Seriously, how little do you care for your life, oh-great chosen one?" I could hear an obvious hint of mockery in that last phrase.

I slammed my milk carton down and glared at the emo. "You know, I'm getting real tired of your whining. You want me to stop doing stupid shit-well news flash! Stupid shit kinda keeps me alive. Don't tell that I am wrong. When I was in my DL phase, I read a shit ton of translated scripts, and boy, the little things piss those guys off. So, it doesn't matter what I do; I'm going to piss them off."

"Ugh, then how about you stop being so reluctant and be that reckless girl I know you are!" Shiro interrupted. I paused.

"...What?"

"After that stupid text message, I can tell you're being cautious. You act as if the world is on your shoulders-which, yeah, there's a good possibility of that, but you need to understand, they're the ones that truly decide to change. It isn't all you...so don't push yourself like it is."

I was shocked and speechless. "Oh..." Was all I could push out first. "...That is literally the nicest thing you've ever said to me...ever."

"Yeah, well don't be used to it. War isn't the only ones who'll be after them. There's Famine and Pestilence and...and Death. They aren't alone. But you should know that you aren't either..."

I stared Shiro and smiled. "D'aw~ well, when you say it like that, not only does it cheer me up, it makes it sound like you have a little crush on meeee~" I teased. Shiro huffed and rolled his eyes.

"My God, after all that, you still act like you're five...I know I technically asked for it, but sheesh!"

"Well, that aside, what do I do now?" I asked.

"That messenger said that War might be going after Reiji or Ayato, right? They've both been acting weird, so I think she's actually going after both of them, give herself better odds."
