ribbon of fate { jshk x reader } - [ COMPLETE ]

chapter 15 - back into the fake world

[a/n] this is another very long and depressing chapter

- (Y/N) POV -

"Yashiro... come on now, deep breaths. I knew you guys were going to be curious, so I prepared this. I thought it would be fun!" I grin and look at everyone's shocked faces. "Everybody, FOLLOW ME!"

A few days ago, I had commissioned a very special painting out of pure need for nostalgia.

Everybody follows me out of my boundary as I lead them to the music room. Beside the piano is a smiling green-haired girl holding a painting in her arms.

"Shijima-chan!"

"(Y/n)-chan! Long time no see!"

"My Mura-Joudai sent you the specifics earlier, right?" I run up to her and smile. "Did you get it ready?"

"Of course! It's a request from you, after all."

"Good! Now, let's get started, then."

"(Y/N), why's she here?" Tsukasa wanders around No. 4 as she shivers spitefully, "Say, is it another fake world? Can I help you?! Can I, can I?!"

I shoo the rat away, flapping my hands. He's still mentally a 5 year old. 

"Hey, Sakura-chan! Wanna come?" I shout at the quiet girl at the back.

"No, it's alright. I can stay here and wait for your arrival."

"Okay then. By the way, tell Teru I'm on a business trip if he's looking for me, which he probably is."

"Uhm... (Y/N), what are you planning?"

"Just wait and you'll see."

Shijima-san reveals a canvas with a drawing of an old house. She picks up a paint brush and points it to the canvas. She gives me a nod as I grin mischievously.

"Here we go!"

There's a chorus of "WHAT?!"s and "HOLD ON"s as I gleefully shove everyone into the painting.

-------------------------------------------

"Uhm, (Y/N) where are we?!"

We all land uncomfortably on the hard floor. I'm the one to stand up first and help everyone up.

I could've asked for a better landing....

"Oh! I know this place!" Tsukasa yells, running around the room.

It's a hospital. The place we were born, to be exact. I clap the dust off my hands and look at my three companions.

"Basically, I asked Shijima-chan to make another fake world." noticing the shocked and horrified look on their faces, I quickly added. "Don't worry, this'll be the last one. And the thing is, now we're watching my life!"

Yashiro shrieks. "But... won't we be here for 14 years then?!"

"Oh no, that takes up too much time. We're just going to skip to the good parts. This trip will end in about...," I stop to check my imaginary watch, "three hours, at least?"
