Hey everyone!

Just wanted to say. Battle Royale and all the characters except Mika, Mio, and some other randos that were never part of BR all belong to Takami Koshun. My little disclaimer. If I did own them, Shinji would be with me all day errday.

And if you're wondering, yes this does revolve a lot around the OCs Mio and Mika Uchida. But also around the classmates around them. Don't like gore and death and sappy sad tragedy? This might not be the story for you then. The story starts and ends with the twins. Until both of them die (if they die, no spoilers but they might survive...or not...or maybe they will...), the story isn't over. Well, to put it better, Nanahara, you're getting the boot from the lead.

No, there isn't any sex. It's implied sex so nothing too graphic here except the violence.

R&R I guess.

It wasn't as if she had asked for this. In fact, it was only yesterday that she had dreamed of spending the rest of her life with none other than the Third Man. For Mika, her life was Mimura Shinji (Male Student No. 19). He might have been perhaps just as important as her own twin sister. But she couldn't make sense of anything that was happening in that moment.

Only one thing ran through the pretty girl's mind. She knew better than anyone what would happen out there but then she glanced off to the side to her best friend. She knew he couldn't feel a thing, she was there next to him every day he was in the hospital so it was inevitable that she heard of his condition from the doctor. But Kiriyama Kazuo (Male Student No. 6) wasn't a lost cause, not to Mio. She knew somehow she'd get him to feel something somehow.

Backtrack a bit and let's get to know these two unknown girls. From what you've gathered, you may have already guessed Mio and Mika are twins, and that they're seventeen, and that they're both madly in love with men who don't know the meaning of love. Mika was older than Mio by three minutes, and Mio was slightly taller than Mika – only by an inch though. It wasn't difficult to differentiate the two though. It was as simple as looking at their heads. Mika dyed her hair dark red with her best friend, Chigusa Takako (Female Student No. 13), and Mio's hair was dyed a light brown as suggested by the Kiriyama family.

"Curly hair is sexy." She felt someone breathe against her neck. Mika shivered, immediately recognizing who the voice belonged to. "But I don't want to share this beautiful view with anyone else."

"You should think about what you just said, Mim." Mika hissed. "Get those lips away from me. God only knows where they've been."

"Come on baby, don't hate the player, hate the game." He said, wrapping his arms around her narrow waist. He was a lot taller than her, so it was easy for him to kiss the top of her head, but he needed to stand straight because bending over to whisper to her was breaking his neck.

Mika span around in his arms to face him. She tilted her head upwards letting her hair fall away from her face. "Do you need something from me, Shinji?" she asked with a smile.

Shinji chuckled and leaned over to press his lips to hers only to be blocked by her small hand. He groaned in annoyance.

"Hey, no PDA!" yelled Nanahara Shuya (Male Student No. 15). If Shuya wasn't Shuya, Mika was sure she would have sent all his teeth flying out of his mouth for interrupting them.

Many people believed that Shinji and Mika were dating, but they weren't, aren't, can't, because Shinji just doesn't work like that. It isn't at all like the rumors revolving around Mika's best friends Chigusa Takako and Sugimura Hiroki (Male Student No. 11). Mika and Shinji were closer than that – physically. It was an unethical relationship but if that's what Mika could get, it's what she took. Mika called it love at first sight; Shinji called it lust at first sight. Watching the Third Man play ball always made her heart race, he was too cool, he was the man on and off the court.

"Boss, what say you we get some drinks after school?" Numai Mitsuru (Male Student No. 17) suggested. "You can bring the Mistress if ya want. My treat!"

Because Mio was always with Kazuo, she officially became the Boss's woman. Of course Mio was overjoyed by the title but she knew Kazuo was indifferent about it. Mio deserved this more than anyone else. She was by Kazuo's side since birth – that's how long they've known each other. He's her first and only love. His accident didn't change anything, she still loved him unconditionally.

Kazuo didn't reply to Mitsuru so Mio did it for him, "Sure, Mistu-kun. I'm inviting my sister if that's okay." Mitsuru knew he wasn't to say no so he just smiled and nodded. It wouldn't have mattered anyways, they'd get the drinks and leave before they paid. Mitsuru could have beaten the owners up, but booking it seemed like an easier way out.

Mio went to break Mika and Shinji apart to invite her to drinks. Mika looked up at Shinji to see if it was alright – hoping he'd say no and have something planned for the night. Instead, he said, "Go ahead, I have to break it off with what's her face, that girl from Class A."

Mika frowned and punched his chest. "If you're going to sleep with her, at least have the decency to remember her name! It's Nakamura Hitomi."

"Why are you memorizing these girls' names when I don't even care?" Shinji asked with a raised brow.

"Because I need to make sure you don't contract anything and transmit it to me. And I'm in Class A too, moron!" Mika huffed, and turned to walk away with her sister.

***BATTLEROYALE***

Mika changed out of her uniform and into her casual clothes – a pair of torn shorts and a white tank top with her sneakers. As she put her hair up in a ponytail, shesaw her sister exit out of the bathroom stall through the mirror dressed in a normal pink sundress. Mio glanced at her sister taking note of all the bruise like markings on her collarbone and neck area – obviously, it wasn't from fighting.

They left the school with the Kiriyama family and they all headed to the bar – fake IDs for everyone. When they got there, something caught Mika's eye. Mimura Shinji and Nakamura Hitomi, and Hitomi didn't seem too happy. Mika excused herself while the group looked for a table big enough for their group.

"You can't just leave me like this, I love you!" she cried broken heartedly. Upon hearing this, Mika wanted to laugh. She had the nerve to say she loved Shinji.

"We were only fuck buddies." He said blandly.

"No, you and Uchida Mika are fuck buddies. We have something!" she insisted. Mika's eyebrow twitched. She and Shinji weren't fuck buddies. They're friends with benefits, best friends with lots of benefits.

"I think it's time for you to leave." Shinji ordered. When Hitomi didn't move, he was about to force her away when he saw an all too familiar head of red hair shaking. Shaking with…laughter?

"Oi, Nakamura. Get outta here." Mika said. "It's done."

"I don't understand!" Mika and Shinji looked at her dumbly.

"You are no longer good enough to have your vagina impaled by Mim's meat pole." Mika said crudely. "Or maybe you're one of those girls who have fucked around too much. Is your pussy loose like an old man's skin?"

Appalled, Hitomi took her glass of ice water and dumped it on Mika's head. "At least he doesn't use me like he uses you. Once he breaks up with a girl, he just goes to you for more sex. So aren't you the more pathetic one here, Uchida?" Mika wiped her face with her forearm and went after Hitomi who finally decided it was time for her to take her leave. She grabbed her classmate by her long hair and dragged her back to the table.

"Let go of me you psycho!" Hitomi screamed. Mika brought her knee up and slammed Hitomi's face onto it – probably not hard enough to break her nose, but if she hit her eye, Hitomi would surely get a nice shiner. Hitomi held her bruised eye and glared at Mika who had released her. Hitomi lunged for Mika and grabbed her wet hair – Mika getting a hold of Hitomi's hair as well.

Shinji was debating whether he should intervene or not. Two girls fighting over him wasn't so bad, but then he realized he should probably help Mika before she got herself arrested for murder. He pried the two girls apart and shoved Hitomi towards the door while he slipped out of his sports jacket and handed it to Mika. The thing was huge on her but he knew she liked it a lot.

"See, this is why you should confide in me before dating the girls in my class." Mika shot. "Let me rephrase that. You should confide in me before sleeping with the girls in my class to prevent more girls from believing you give two shits about their feelings for you."

"I do care about girls' feelings." Shinji said, rubbing his chin. "I care about yours, don't I?"

This made Mika blush more shades of red than she knew existed. She hugged him tight for saying that and smiled against his shoulder. Standing at 5'11" Shinji was rather tall, and the top of Mika's head only reached his chin so Mika isn't exactly the tallest person.

"So…Mika's not joining us for drinks?" Sasagawa Ryuhei (Male Student No. 10) asked. Mio just shook her head and raised her hand to call the waiter. She could have sworn she felt Kazuo's hand reach around her waist to pull her in away from the male waiter. But maybe she was imagining things – in her little world where Kazuo returns her feelings.

Mika bade farewell to the Kiriyama family and told Mio to tell their parents she'd be staying at Takako's house. Mio and everyone else knew of course that was a lie since she was suddenly wearing Mimura Shinji's jacket. They didn't need to see Mimura to know it was his – Mika would never accept some random guy's jacket. Mio knew that Shinji didn't like having Mika around the Kiriyama family, he didn't trust them. Despite the fact that he's a man whore, Shinji was still a good guy and didn't run with any delinquent groups – well, the government would call him a delinquent anyways.

***BATTLEROYALE***

The sound of heavy panting filled the room as well as deep grunts and groans, and high screams and moans. The tension built higher as the bed creaked louder and the headboard slammed into the wall harder. A scream, then a long groan, and finally, two bodies plopping down on the bed. The two took the time to catch their breath before trying to speak. Shinji slid his arm around Mika and brought her close. Mika turned onto her side to face him, looking at him with knitted brows.

"I thought I said no more hitting, Mim. My butt hurts." She whined. Shinji grinned and rubbed the sore cheeks of her rear. "Are you going to miss me? Note, me not sex." she asked with a frown.

"Of course I will." He said, kissing her forehead. "You know, I'm not with you just for sex."

"You know I love you though, right Shinji? Why'd you agree to go on this stupid trip again?" Mika pouted.

"Because it seemed fun like it'd be a guy's night out. Just me, Hiroki, Yutaka and Shuya." He explained. "I do wish you'd be there though."

Shinji knew that Mika's concern wasn't about not being around him 24/7, it was more because their government was so fucked up, she didn't want him to go on some whacko trip like the ones they take the junior high kids on – poor suckers have to go on The Program. What if they suddenly came up with some other weird ass thing for high schoolers to go on? What if Class B became guinea pigs? Mika held Shinji tighter with those thoughts in her mind terrifying her.

His big hands brushed her hair away from her face. He knew she was worried, but they were in high school now. There would be no programs for them to go on. They were lucky to have not won that lottery.

"It'll all be fine, 'kay?" he said, trying to reassure that nothing would happen to him. In truth, Shinji didn't know how he felt about Mika. His uncle told him he loved her, but that was four years ago just before he died.

'Cherish her, Shinji. She's the one.' Was what he told her before suddenly leaving and turning up dead. He knows Mika thought he didn't realize he didn't answer her question about whether or not he knew she loved him. He knows Mika better than even Mio does, or maybe even Takako. He told her to sleep, and they did. The next morning – very early in fact – the two woke up, left the love hotel and went to Shinji's house to get his stuff.
