One (TW?)

A/N Kokichi's f*cking batsh*t crazy in this one. Possibly even worse than the one in "A Motive". Kinda pregame, but not exactly. It's really only Shuichi who had the pregame personality, all the other characters are the same. 

The group of thirteen sat around, waiting for the news.

"I never expected this to happen...." Kirumi admitted. "Especially from Kokichi."

"To be honest, I didn't either." Kaito agreed. Maki remained silent, but nodded her head.

"Fuckin' crazy ass bitch...." Miu grumbled. "Where's Kaede?! Didn't she say she was going to be comin' back soon?!"

"Be patient, Miu...." Himiko patted her on the back.

"it is crucial that we stay calm in this situation!" Kiibo exclaimed. "If we panic, that would not be a good course of action!"

"Hey, guys." Kaede pushed the door open, entering the room. "I'm back...."

"What wrong?!" Gonta shouted. "Gonta so worried about Kokichi!"

Kaede winced, gently rubbing at her neck. "Well, I'll tell you that you all probably shouldn't go in there... he was capable of escaping handcuffs, I don't know what else might happen."

"He did?" Tsumugi asked. Kaede nodded her head. "Oh. That's surprising...."

Kaede sighed. "I know, I was surprised by it too. I'll explain to you all what happened, but it may take me a while. I'm, not so comfortable with it...."

Kaede entered the room, being met with her former classmate Kokichi. He was a lot different from what she remembered. He was smiling, but it wasn't comforting in the slightest. It looked, slightly unhinged, like Kokcihi was going to snap and kill someone in the next few moments. He looked up at Kaede, his smile widening. "Oh! Hey there, Kaede! What are you doing here?"

"I... um... I wanted to talk to you, Kokichi." She told him, sitting down in the chair across from him. Kokichi was handcuffed to a chair on the other side of the table, giving Kaede the smallest amount of safety.

"About what?" Kokichi tilted his head to the side. "About what I've been doing recently?"

Kaede hesitated, remembering what the doctors had told her. "He's been showing slight cases of psychosis. Referring to someone as 'Saihara-chan'. Be careful, we don't know what might happen." She then nodded her head slowly. "I've been wanting to know why. Why you... why you're killing people."

Kokichi laughed. "It's simple, really! Saihara-chan told me if I killed enough people, he'd come back!"

"Kokichi, he's dead." Kaede reminded him.

Kokichi's smile immediately fell, being replaced with an expression of hatred. "Shut up. You don't understand a thing. Not. A. Single. Thing." He hissed, a shiver going down Kaede's spine. The smile then reappeared. "I miss Saihara-chan! I love him, so of course I'd do anything to bring him back! Even if I had to stab my eyes out, cut my tongue off, gouge out my heart, I'd do  anything! Anything at all!"

"Kokichi, don't go saying things like that!" Kaede shouted. "Don't do that to yourself... for someone who's not here anymore."

Kokichi let out an irritated sigh. "Didn't you hear me? If you all wouldn't have turned me in and let me kill off one more person, Saihara-chan would have been back by now!" He complained. "But you, you got in the way. Got in the way of anything and everything I've been trying to do."

Kaede winced. "Kokichi, I know that you and Shuichi were very close... but please. You need to move on."

Kokichi went silent. "Move on...?" He laughed softly. "That's impossible... fully impossible... I just needed one more. One more. One." He started muttering under his breath, repeating phrases like 'one' and 'one more'. It unsettled Kaede, who just sat there in silence, watching as Kokichi's happy persona was slipping away. His ramblings suddenly cut off, glancing through his bangs to look at Kaede. A sudden wicked smile appeared on his face, as he leapt across the table.
