Kokichi x Reader L I E S ?

Chapter 16. keep going

"A BODY HAS BEEN DISCOVERED!"

The voice bounds off the walls of my room. It took me a hot second to realize what was going, and it didn't help when I did realize.

I opened my door and slowly walked out of my room, trying not to make a sound. I looked around the dorm building, but to my luck, I couldn't find anyone.

Chills ran down my back, I became more scared the seconds that went by when I couldn't find anyone.

I opened the door to exit, running down the path, I was so scared tears started to gather in my eyes.
Not only was my mind still not progressing what was happening, but currently, I was alone.

I ran to the main building, my mind is hazy. I opened the doors, running around yelling for people.

"Rantaro! Maki! Anyone! Please...where are you guys..."

I started to run slower, my tears finally falling down my cheeks.
That's when I heard people gathering around somewhere.
I ran up the stairs, entering a bigger room, assuming it was a library.

Everyone was surrounding something, I pushed my way through them, curious and trying to figure out what was going on.

I honestly wish I didn't.

There layed Rantaro.
Blood pooling around his head.

My heart stop.
A body, a dead body.
Yeah, I had seen dead bodies before at home, but not anyone I knew.

"(Y/y), stay back..."

Kaede warn, I didn't listen to her, I dropped to my knees, and automatically reached to grab him.

"(Y/n)! Stop, we can't have you touching the crime scene."

He did not just call Rantaro a 'crime scene'.

"N-n-no, p-please."

I reached out to him, not before someone grabbed my shoulder and pulled me back.
Kaito was staring down at me, somewhat of sympathy in his eyes.

"(Y/n), come on."

I let him pull me up, my body was limp.
Somehow, I wasn't crying. I was just staring.
This couldn't be real, he was just playing with me, some sick prank.

I walked away and went to sit down in another aisle.

I, to be honest, still couldn't comprehend what was going on.

People started to spill out of the room, occasionally they would stop by me and look or pat my head.

They walked out and I felt footsteps come close to me. I ignored it thinking it was another person who was going to look at me pitifully.
Instead, Kaede sat next to me.

"(Y/n), I'm really sorry, you were close with him, right? Do you know anything we could use?"

"L-like what...."

"Any information, we could use for the investigation and trial......or against him."

She quieted down while finishing her sentence.
I sadly shook my head. Not anything I could think of, I didn't have anything interesting.

He smoked, he had missing sisters, he was nice, he knew about my scars.

Yeah, nothing important.

She slowly smiled, getting up and walking back to his body.
How could she just see someone's dead body?

I know he didn't have the best blood with everyone, but, still, you knew who he was, you had gotten to speak with him. And you just ignored that he was dead and just wanted to get straight to class trial.

I got up, walking out the aisle, I turn to glance at his body, just to see him one last time.
I walked out of the library and decided to just walk around the building. There wasn't much to do, Rantaro was dead, so I couldn't talk to him, everyone was doing their own things.

Kokichi.

I hadn't seen kokichi all day, and he had walked out of the library before I left.

While I thought of him, I was occasionally passed other people.
Depression was all around the building, the first person to start the horrible chain had gone down, a domino effect awaited all of us.

I went outside, just to catch a breath, that's when I notice kokichi sitting on a bench, swinging his feet.

"Kokichi!"

I yelled at him to catch his attention. He turns around and a mischievous smile painted on his face.

"(Y/n), how are you doing. I missed you soooo much!"

He said as he jumps up from the bench, starting to walk towards me.

"Kokichi, what are y-"

"You know a lot of people suspect you, it would be a shame if you were the culprit, or Kaito, or Angie, or Kaede, or me. I just hope all this gets figured out, you know he was really interested in you. A shame he had to go."

All while he chatted away, that evil smirk stayed on his face, chills rain down my spine.

"A-and that's why we are going to try to fix this up. We'll figure it out!"

I somewhat confidently pronounce. 'I'll make sure of it.' I assured myself.

"Yeah yeah, keep thinking what you want, I gotta go."

He said distastefully. He strutted away, in no clear direction.
He left me there all to myself, he had really just left when all I wanted was comfort.

Kokichi's pov:

"Yeah yeah, keep thinking what you want, I gotta go."

I said, walking away and leaving her behind.

I wasn't in such a mood to joke around, the mastermind or a crazy bitch just had taken their first move and the game had started.

Not that I was interested in Rantaro, but honestly really? He would have probably kept me entertained for some while. He was actually somewhat nice to me besides (Y/n).
I'm was actually going to miss him.

And now the game was weird. I had suspected him as the mastermind, but now he was dead.
(Y/n) seemed distraught, but not enough. I'm not going to think anything of her. She seems so weak, maybe someone I'll be able to pick on.

But I'll make an exception right now since she seems on the verge of death.

I'm just hoping I can figure this out.

And that's when I remembered.
She's the Ultimate dreamer, right? She can help with my ideas or plans.

I took off running to the dorm rooms, the place she would most likely be found in.
