5 | Russian Roulette

For people who don't know what Russian Roulette is, there will be a description at the end of the story. Also, if you don't know what a revolver is, I will also place the information at the end.

Third person begins now!~

The four students rushed to where the source of people's panic was coming from.

Fear can make people do anything, especially when there is someone in Kyoto, Japan causing random problems.

Also when your friend is almost losing her memory.

"So, what's the best way to do this, Satou-kun?" Erissa asked her friend, pretending he was in charge of the group.

"Why are you asking me, Princess?" Satou asked back, unsure how to organize how to fight.

"Well, Blythie is kinda bad with battle strategies, and there is a person I don't know here. So basically, we are relying on you," Erissa responded.

"I do agree. How should we do this, Satou?" Blythe asked, restating the idol's question.

Satou hesitated, and the group could tell. He sighed and looked at Erissa, determined.

"Blythe and Fibel will be backup, since their fighting style is best suited for long range. Erissa and I will attack in the front, but it will all rely on Erissa. I will defend her and try to shoot the mastermind with my gas magic, and Erissa will use her knife to kill. Erissa will also use her magic as a backup," Satou planned.

"Sounds good," Blythe agreed with the plan, taking out her two guns.

The group ran towards the source of the crowd's panic, hoping to find the mastermind behind the current attacks.

"Ahh, I'm guessing you four want to play Russian Roulette with me?"

Stopping at the sudden words, the four looked towards the voice.

On a rollercoaster, there was a boy cloaked in a dark cape, laughing evilly.

"I bet that's the mastermind. Blythe, Fibel, back us up," Satou commanded, pulling Erissa's arm as they advanced foward.

"Ooo~! Satou-kun is a good leader!" The idol exclaimed, unsure on how to react to the current situation. Satou, unamused, continued to pull the idol's arm.

"Who are you?" Satou screamed at the man. The boy just laughed.

"How about you play a game of Russian Roulette with me, Satori-kun? Maybe I'll tell you my name, if you don't get shot," The man replied. Upon hearing Satou grunt, Blythe and Erissa stepped up.

"I'll play with you. We need the chance to know your name as soon as possible," Blythe glared.

"I will play too! I won't let Blythe do this alone!" Erissa exclaimed, holding Blythe's hand.

"Good choice, Erissa-chan, Blythe. How about you, Satori-kun?" The person asked, jumping off of the rollercoaster and stepping up to Satou.

"Or, are you just as lonely as always, not caring what happens to your little friends?" The person smirked, holding Satou's chin since he was much, much taller.

Satou, able to see his face, jumped back.

"Why are you still alive, Guren?"

Hearing those very words, Erissa lost strength in her legs and fell. Blythe rushed to her friend, knowing if that Guren were alive, he would try to kill both Erissa and her.

"Hmm? My identity has been revealed to the world. Ahh, I guess it's time for Russian Roulette then. Satori-kun, Erissa-chan, and Blythe will play. No excuses, now let's play," Guren smirked, taking out a gun and a bullet.
