A/N: Haiiii! Sorry for not posting an update sooner, i've been sort of busy. I promise to try and update this story more often! Also if you have any ideas message me them or comment some. Btw, i'll be making a special halloween themed chapter soon!~

"Maki..." Shuichi sat on a chair in the bedroom of the Ultimate Assassin, who was on the bed holding back tears. Shuichi smiled warmly at her.
"You can cry if you want..." he said softly, and Maki looked up at him, and tears began spilling down her cheeks. She covered her eyes and cried, choking on air.
"I-I wa-want Kirumi b-back!" She cried out. Shuichi walked over and sat next to her, rubbing her back softly as she cried.
Maki cried until her eyes were dry and she felt tired. Shuichi stood up and smiles faintly at her.
"Th-Thanks...Shuichi... I-I feel a bit b-better..."'she sighed then gave him a death glare.
"If you tell a single soul about this you're dead."

After convincing Maki he'd keep his mouth shut he made his way back to Kaito's dorm and knocked. Kaito opened the door and Shuichi walked in.
"Is Makiroll okay?" Kaito asked. Shuichi nodded and looked at the bed to see Kokichi sleeping. He chuckled softly.

Tsumugi Shirogane made her way to Kiyo's dorm with some food. She got Monokuma to unlock it and set the food in front of him.
"Eat." She stated flatly, glaring at him as she turned around and left. She then imagined what Kaito, Shuichi and Kokichi were up to. Her fantasies were wild just like all of ours.

Shuichi stared at Kokichi's sleeping face and chuckled. He walked to the bed and sat on it, gently rubbing Kokichi's hair as he peacefully slept. Kaito smiled slightly at this before he looked at Shuichi.
"You took a while. You sure Makiroll's okay?" Kaito asked. Shuichi hesitated.
"No... but she said not to tell anyone about it so..." Shuichi sighed and Kaito nodded understandingly. The bluenette looked down at Kokichi, and smiled faintly before looking at Kaito.
"Kaito... this has been bothering me for a while, but Kiyo's tongue was cut out... who did it?" He asked. Kaito shrugged and ruffled Shuichi's hair gently.
"No clue..." Kaito sighed. Shuichi bit his lip. The most likely suspect would be Maki but... well, with how hung up she has been about Kirumi, and being cooped up lately, it was probably not her. Unsure, Shuichi sighed and sat on the bed beside Kokichi, gently rubbing the smaller male's head.

Tsumugi stared down at Kiyo, who was tied up on the ground in his dorm. She watched as he tried to get his hands free so he could eat the food she had set in front of him.
"...If you want help tell me." Tsumugi stated coldly, then smiled softly, but a bit of spite in her gaze.
"Oh wait. You can't speak, right." She turned and walked out of his dorm, closing it behind her. It wasn't murder if he simply died of starvation, right?

"...sushi..."
"...kaiyo..."
Kokichi mumbled as he slept. Shuichi chuckled.
"Eheh, you're Sushi now, huh?" Kaito smirked and stared at the two with soft eyes.
Kokichi shuddered a bit, and his forehead wrinkles a bit.
"...no...dom't...kill... nod sushi...nod...kaiyo... nod mom..." Kokichi suddenly being shaking fiercely, and making pained and fearful noises as he laid there. Quickly, Shuichi grabbed his shoulders and shook him, causing Kokichi's eyes to snap open, and he leaned into Shuichi's chest, eyes wide and blank.
"K-Kokichi, are you okay?!" Kaito exclaimed worriedly and ran over, sitting on the bed next to the other two. Kokichi's eyes were wide as he cuddled up against Shuichi.
"Y-You two were d-de-dead a-and m-m-mom killed you t-two a-and then e-everyone st-started dying, l-like kiiboy a-and Tsumugi and maki and-and everyone. A-and all I could do was w-watch as they d-d-died and—" Kokichi stopped when Shuichi gently rubbed the back of his head in a soothing manner.
"It's okay Kokichi... it was just a dream..." he whispered. Kokichi shook his head.
"Y-You two and m-mostly everyone is alive... b-but mom's dead... and-and..." Kokichi took some shaky breaths as he tried to calm himself. Shuichi continued to gently rub his head to calm him down.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Kaito stood up and opened it to see Tsumugi standing there with a small smile.
"Hello you thr— eh? Kokichi, are you okay?!" Tsumugi walked past Kaito quickly and stared at Kokichi, who was crying into Shuichi's shoulder.
"He had a nightmare..." Kaito sighed worriedly. Tsumugi nodded understandingly.
"I see... Don't worry Kokichi, it was only a dream." Tsumugi smiled softly. Kokichi looked at her.
"Y-You sound like s-someone I kn-know... S-someone in d-dice... a-and you also s-sound like m-m-mom a-and..." Kokichi was panicking again, Tsumugi calmly walked closer.
"Ah, i'm sorry if I brought back unpleasant memo—"
"T-Tsumugi..." Kokichi looked up at her, teary-eyed.
"M...M-Mom's d-de-dead..." He stammered, and Tsumugi looked down sadly and nodded slowly.

After Tsumugi left, once Kokichi was calmer, they made their way to the cafeteria.
"Heyyyy morons!" Kokichi exclaimed as they arrived, everyone's else already there. Most of them didn't reply, or gave him a glare. Tsumugi stared for a moment before letting out a light chuckle.
"K-Kokichi—" Shuichi sighed. He sat down next to Himiko and looked at the empty seat next to him, that Kirumi often sat in. He looked over at Himiko, who had a sorrowful expression on her face. He wanted to console her, but he didn't. Anything he said felt like it'd make Angie's death harder on her.

"We failed to prevent a second murder... what now?" Ryoma asked with his usual monotone, and looked at everyone else. Shuichi paused in thought.
Himiko spoke up with a surprising confidence.
"We start a student council! That's what Angie was planning to create before... that happened." She stood up as she stared around at everyone. This confidence and energy was unusual for Himiko, but she had  a point.
"Student council, huh... Maybe that'd work." Shuichi states, Tsumugi nodded in agreement and smiled.
"I'd like to join it then~" Tsumugi said with a calm yet warm tone. Hesitantly, Shuichi looked at Himiko.
"Me too..."
Kokichi perked up when Shuichi said that.
"Nishishi~ I'll join too! Kaito, you're joining as well." Kokichi commanded. Kaito sighed and nodded.
"I don't have a choice, do I?" He muttered.

In the end, the council was made. Himiko was the leader, and the members were Tsumugi, Shuichi, Kokichi, Kaito and Kiibo.

The gay soiree made there ways back to their separate dorms, but before Kokichi entered his, and Kaito was already back at his, Shuichi stopped him.
"Kokichi, umm... about what happened... does that occur often...?" He asked. Kokichi looked slightly hesitant as he nodded.
"Yeah... But it's normally worse... sometimes about DICE... and the ones about you and Kaito are also the worst... it's all terrible." It was a strange thing, to see Kokichi so vulnerable and weak. Shuichi rubber the back of his neck.
"Umm... If I may ask, what's this DICE thing?" Shuichi asked. Kokichi looked at him with a bright smile.
"My super secret evil organization!" He exclaimed cheerfully, but Shuichi knew he was lying. He sighed before hugging Kokichi softly.
"You can tell me the truth y'know." He stated. Kokichi hesitated and nodded.
"Fine, but I don't want anyone else to know. Not even Kaito... he's such a blabbermouth he'll probably tell everyone." Kokichi chuckled before entering his dorm. Shuichi followed and sat down on the bed. Kokichi stood in front of the bluenette, staring down at him.
"Sooo... DICE is an organization... but different then it sounds. We're really just a bunch of..." Kokichi sighed, hesitating.
"Just a bunch of petty thieves... going around the world and doing some simply laughable pranks, sometimes stealing..."
Kokichi was about to say something else, but stopped himself.
"And that's it." He smiled at Shuichi. The detective boio wasn't convinced, he knew there was something else. He didn't push Kokichi into telling him though.
