Rika had finally awoken and I could finally breath easy. "Rika-chan, why did you say those things back there? More like, what were you saying?" I asked her, my brown hair bangs falling by my eyes. "I don't know...I don't want to know...All I remember is going insane..." Rika shivered and hugged her knees.
We decided to take a small 5-minute break in this classroom, Naru is looking at these corpses. "Interesting, the more students we learn about...The more chances we can thin out the chances of finding someone alive. Example, most of the people we found dead is from a certain school, so it's safe to say we won't find someone from that school because most died. But it's safe to say other people has been trapped in here, either died of starvation, or insanity. Rika scratched so hard her skin began to bleed so, it's safe to say that she lost it for a second..." Naru hypothesized. "But, if I remember correctly, Rika was totally sane before all that happened, she just paused" I shrugged my shoulders. "Yeah...you have a point, what a difficult situation" He crossed his arms.
I stood and looked at a dead body, sighing. It's a girl's body, seemingly junior or senior high. It's mostly decomposed down to the skeleton at this point. There's a duffel bag on its side next to her with a track suit partially hanging out of it. And her student ID is visible still, Momijigawa High school, Ao Amano.
"Ao Amano. Died of starvation, probably. There's no signs of fractures anywhere and no dried blood so that's the likely cause" I picked up her Student ID and stuffed it in my pocket. "Let's hurry and get out of here..." Naru declared and began walking. "Hey, Mai-chan" Rika held my hand tightly. "Remember that time, you spent a night at my house?" "Of course I do! I got to show off I got bigger bo-" I stopped midway, noticing Naru clearing his throat. "You had bigger mangos then me, oh and then I tried to fight you! After that we both took a bath together! Then we fell asleep, chatting away about things at school and you complaining about Naru~" she whistled innocently as I played punch her.
"Aw damnit! I've gotta pee, really bad" Rika crossed her legs together and wheezed. "Well there must be a bathroom SOMEWHERE here, if my assumptions are correct, which is the fact we may me in the same abandoned school that was torn down over 30 years ago; Heavenly Host Elementary School" Mai put her elbow on the palm of her other hand and went into thinking pose. "Rika-chan, hold it in, we'll find a bathroom, right Naru?" I looked toward Naru but he wasn't there. "I think we lost him while we were talking, come on" I held out my hand and we began to walk together. We FINALLY caught up with Naru who which had already found a bathroom. "Here" he simply had that stoic face of his.
"YES!" Rika ran inside and opened one of the stalls and closing it back when she was safe inside.
Rika's POV
I finally let it out and gave a long sigh of satisfaction, I've actually been holding it in for a long time now, ever since we got here. I suddenly crouched down and felt an enormous pain by my abdomen. "What the heck?!" I lifted open my uniform shirt and something stopped for a second.
"Kyah!" I screamed in horror. There was something of a bruise, it was tall and it was as if a tree with a lot of branches sticking out. I grunted and clutched my stomach in pain. "Hey! Rika-chan! Are you okay?" I heard my best friend Mai call out, full of worry. "Y-yes! I'm alright!" I laughed a few times and I heard a relived sigh escape Mai's mouth. "It must be because of the fall, maybe I hit myself somewhere, haha!" I reassured myself and began walking out the bathroom, I went by the broken molded sinks and looked at the shattered pieces of mirror glass. I took a piece and looked at my face and dropped it. Another bruise, spreading over my face like an infection. "Dirt, it has to be dirt!" I exclaimed as I used some of my spit and rubbed some off it off but of course, it failed. All it did was make it become darker.
"I look horrible, ugly, disgusting!" I gave in an ear piercing scream and Mai ran in the room. "DON'T LOOK AT ME" I yelled at her, pulling large chunks of my hair off and going mad. I ran out of the room, shoving away from Naru and Mai. I ran, I ran.
I needed to run, fast.
WHAT IF THEY SAW ME LIKE THIS?! THE BEAUTIFUL RIKA ISAYAMA HAS BRUISES AND UGLY SHIT ALL OVER HER.
I ran into the nearest room I could find and panted, panted loudly. "It's okay...just breath in and out..." I crouched in the corner and took a deep breath in. I looked around and noticed I was in an infirmary room. "Oh..." I said quietly and stood, beginning to walk. "This room...is so lifeless" a voice from behind made me turn and notice a very odd girl. Her hair was black and her skin almost seemed completely pale. A nice, yet ripped dress was what she was wearing and she had this ear breaking smile on her face. Her eyes, was completely white. "I know! I know! I want to dissect something! A human autopsy!" she gleamed happily, her cruelty is excruciating. "W-what?!" I stepped back a few. 'This girl, she seems familiar' I thought, panicking.
One of the most famous murders was the killing of 4 children. A female named Yuki Kanno had her eyes gashed and tongue removed, a boy named Ryou Yoshizawa with his tongue cut off, another female named Tokiko Tsuji had her whole head cut he off from the jaw and upward.
The only one that survived was named Sachiko Shinozaki... Sadly, she died due to loosing her footing on the third floor roof.
"Sachiko...Shinozaki...!" I yelled in horror. The 3 children that also died was right next to her, but they had a blue presence.
Oh god, I'm so scared... I felt something run from my check, and I was guessing it was tears. Of course, if Mai and Naru was never with me from the beginning, I would have cried a long time ago and now, they really aren't here. But something was telling me, it wasn't tears... I touched the wet thing that was on my check and froze. "What the-!" It was a red, sticky substance, that was definitely blood. "What did you do?!" I yelled at the spirits. "We didn't do a single thing" Sachiko gave in a downright frown. "We'll give a few seconds to look in a mirror, hurry! We aren't all that patient!" Her cruel smile reappeared and I didn't give a who what or where. I took out the same broken piece of mirror and gagged a few times at what I saw. The bruise had became deeper, and where I tried to hide it or wipe it off, blood was trailing. I pulled my top open and noticed the bruise on my stomach had become bigger and wider and deeper. "Poor poor you, if you had just left it alone, your death would be simple but now~" Sachiko cooed.
"No! No get away!" I backed away to the door and tried to open it but it was shut closed. It wasn't if it was closed, it was if someone was pulling it shut with inhuman strength. "Help me someone! Mai-chan! Yasu-kun! Miss Matsuzaki! Naru! Anyone!?" I pleaded and NOW I began to cry.
This was it, I'm going to die... Fate had a grip around my ankle and it wasn't planning to let go. I sobbed loudly. 'And...and I sort of liked Yasu too, ever since that moment...' I thought sadly.
"Your name is Osamu Yasuhara, right?" I verified this as he nodded and straightened his glasses. "It's nice to meet you" I bowed my head down and he just laughed. "No need to be so formal, what's your name?" he asked. "My name is Rika Isayama" I whispered quietly. Back then, I was very anti-social and I had Social Anxiety. "Okay, nice to meet you, Rika-chan!" He grabbed both of my cheeks and squeezed them playfully. "Osamu-sama! That hurts!" I whined and he just laughed even more. "Don't be so formal, just call me Yasu, okay?" He smiled at me a smile I treasure in my heart. "Yes! Yasu!" I smiled back at him.
Ever since that afternoon, we always hang out at crepe shops and he did the most funniest things ever! I laughed my heart out back then... But one day...
"Hey, Rika-chan, why are you crying?" he cupped my checks as I held onto his hands, crying and sobbing. "Because...Because I'm so selfish! You never told me you were Student Council President, and I took out all your times, of studying, meetings... I'm so sorry!" I whined loudly and then he laughed. "It's okay, as long..." he began, and after he said those words, I immediately cried tears of happiness.
"As long as I can make you laugh, I would cancel everything out, just for you" he gave me a heart-warming smile.
"Yasu! Yasu!" I whined loudly as one of the children dragged me away from the door. "Yasu! I never got the chance to tell you but!" I began but the pain of my stomach being torn apart interrupted, painfully. I could feel my organs being sliced and ripped open and I gave an agonizing scream.
This was it, I'm going to die. My body, ripped apart piece by piece. If anyone were to find me first, please...let it be Yasu. I...I care for him, a lot.
Fate had me in a lock neck and I wasn't escaping, all the body heat from me left and the blood around spreads like a virus.
Yasu, I like you a lot. Please live, just for me. Don't be disgusted by my features, think of me as pretty. Please...please...
Because, I love you very much
