This part is in Kaito's POV!

It was ominous, like an alleyway in the dark of the night. It unsettled me a lot.. 

But Kokichi was just so cheery, I couldn't tell why. At least it brightens up the mood, it rather comforts me.. Especially since it seems for now, we're the only ones here. 

The thought of ghosts being here is already scaring me.. But, looking back to him.. He's just chanting.

"Yay! Off down the corridor here we go! Just Kokichi and Kaito!" Kokichi kept chanting, a huge smile on his face as he followed behind me. I mean, hey, at least it rhymes. I couldn't help but chuckle. 

His walk was that of a march, but more childlike and cheerful, swinging his arms side to side. It was like he had no cares in the world whatsoever.. How does he keep himself together? I kept wondering.. He was the ruler of his own world, no wonder he's the Ultimate Supreme Leader.. Well, was.. Considering Danganronpa is done for. 

I couldn't help but just stare at him, just walking in my galaxy pattern slippers. 

Huh? Why was I staring? It didn't make much sense.. It was like analyzing him. 

I turned away at last, sulking in the silence of the present situation we had. Stuck with my rival, walking down a messy and dark corridor.. How much worse could it get? I guess.. Striking up a conversation wouldn't be that bad.

"So, what do you think happened?" I asked him, looking behind me and back to his face. It was like a desperate reach out to him, trying to save both of us from the boring, but sad silence.

"Happened to.. What? Be more specific stupid head!" Kokichi looked up to me, a bright smile on his face.

"Well, you know.. To Danganronpa? I thought we died." Big mistake.. I said we. Now he's going to think I died, well, I did.. But he's gonna be mad at me now. 

And I sure as hell didn't want that.

I let out a long sigh, awaiting his response in horror.

"Wait, you died?! I thought it all just ended! Our plan failed?" It was like his mask slipped, a bit of sadness and fear in his face. His plan had failed..

And it all because of me.. What fool am I?

No, now's not the time to doubt myself. Heroes don't doubt themselves!

"Yeah, I'm sorry. If winning meant everyone but me died.. I couldn't. I wanted Makiroll and Shuichi to survive.. And.. I wanted you to as well, having our quarrels was rather fun." I let out a chuckle. I did mean everything I said..

Was he even gonna believe it?

I didn't know. Maybe he was really mad at me and wasn't gonna speak..

"You really are too kind Momo-Chan" Kokichi let out a giggle as he spoke.

 What the hell was Momo-chan for now?.. Jeez, this nicknames confuse me.

"I guess I can see why you did that, and I don't blame you. I guess I killed us both then in the end!" Kokichi's voice was rather soft, seemingly understanding. But.. Why wasn't he teasing me about it!? How I failed! He wasn't pushing it in my face.. It was odd.

It was very unlike him.. Didn't he want to be the villain? 

Wait. 

Why the hell do I care?! It isn't any of my concern! He's my rival! Of course it's gonna be odd!
