Chapter 1/Introduction: The Alternate Path
The tentacles burst straight into the Monster's chest, right through his tie to the sweet spot.
Splurch!
The sound was disgusting, but overall, I couldn't help but feel satisfied.
Monster's smile was still there, but something in him seemed to die.
"Aguri…" he whispered.
"Don't," I growled, plunging the tentacles further into his heart, "… say my sister's name."
Right there, Monster fell and started glowing. His body dissolved, sending lights in the air and leaving his outfit to burn.
There was nothing but silence. I looked over at my 'classmates' and saw their horrified faces.
I didn't get it. We had been trying to kill Monster for almost a year now, and I finally succeeded. Yet, why were they looking at me as if I were the freak octopus that was a murderer?
While I thought, something flashed in my eyes. It was like that part in a movie where the main character is about to die and sees his whole life put into a milisecond. But this time, I wasn't dying, and it wasn't my whole life.
It was my time as a student in Class E. As I started to remember, there were times I legitimately felt happy and laughed. No Monster in them but…
Before I could process the one who appeared in almost every scene, I heard a distant voice shout, "What are you doing?! Run!"
With Karma's warning, everybody started panicking and running away from the blazing field. No… wait…
Nagisa was running directly toward me. His face was equally angry and terrified, yet he came streaking for me.
Before I could overcome my shock, Nagisa grabbed my shoulders surprisingly hard and started shaking me.
"WHAT DID YOU DO, KAYANO?!" he screamed. "YOU KILLED HIM!"
A small bubble of anger burst.
"THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE ALWAYS TRYING TO DO, RIGHT?!" I demanded.
"NOT LIKE THAT!" Nagisa shouted back. "HE WANTED TO BE KILLED AND SEE US SMILE, AND NOT IN THE PSYCHO WAY YOU WERE!"
Before I could process what he said, Karma grabbed him by the collar and dragged him away.
"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU CALL HIM A MURDERER WHEN YOU KILL HIM WITH COLD BLOOD!" he shouted before he disappeared.
I stood there in the middle of the flaming field as the fire finished off Monster's outfit.
And for some reason, my hand was reaching out for Nagisa, as if he were there waiting for another day of school.

He was the God of Fate, Imperus.
He didn't recognize Akari's current path.
It was too far from the original…
