Epilogue
The Wrap Party
At Hounan High, the next day, Mr. Nakanishi was very angry by the fact that they shot a movie… late at night. But he was relieved that they were supervised by some adults, including a police officer.
"Honestly! I've heard such disturbance going on, but you kids should've known better than to make noise at this late at night."
Did I forget to mention that all the students are still alive?
"We're sorry," they all said, as they bowed their heads.
Nakanishi cried, "I'd expect much more of this from Kotobuki, but the principal is putting me in the chopping block. ALL the Hounan High student body went and nearly killed each other."
He sobbed, as Ran patted his shoulder.
"Naka-Teach," she said, "It was just a movie shooting. We've already finished the process to presenting it. But you just don't know cinema."
Nakanishi seethed, and then yelled, "YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO MAKE ALL THAT NOISE, DO YOU, SPIELBERG? NOW STOP CHEERING ME UP!"

At Palm Tree, the gang was a little bummed, yet a little happy that the movie ended.
"Now, all that's left is to present it to the next Culture Fest!" Kotobuki grinned.
"You're actually going through with it?" Miyu shouted, "I can't believe that they may allow it!"
Tatsuki remarked, "I'm surprised that no one was expendable."
Towa asked, "So, when will we see the final project?"
"Soon," Miyu said, "The film is almost finished being developed. Now, all we need to do is watch it at home."
Kotobuki sighed, "Though, I don't approve of the ending. In any case, Aya is not here, since she is still upset about the film."
Tatsuki remarked, "Aw, she's bummed that she broke the script and killed Otohata."
Kotobuki shouted, "She didn't have to kill me, too! What the hell is her deal? She's bummed over Otohata… and BOOM! The film ended and she became an Academy Award Actress!"
She sobbed and whined, "That was supposed to be my role! I was supposed to survive in the end!"
"Except you didn't, Ran. Miyu did," Miyu giggled, "But, when it happened, all of a sudden, we kind of went and ad-libbed and improvised throughout the movie."
Kotobuki then sighed in disappointment, "Damn her…"
Towa then thought, "Maybe if we did a sequel, I'll ask Gill-Man to be in it."

Aya was outside Rei's shop, waiting for him. He arrived and saw Aya, very upset.
"Hey."
"Hey… Otohata…"
She then trembled. He was very confused, as Aya started to cry.
"I cannot believe I did all that!" She sobbed, "It wasn't supposed to happen! The script calls for you and Ran to fight in the end; not Miyu & I."
"Well, you were upset and you had to think fast," he explained, "Besides, some red-streaked GAL forgot to write the ending to this script, so we had to think of something."
Aya sniffled, "Why? I never felt that way before. It wasn't right to be angry."
"Of course not. But you did manage to finish it. What's done is done. We're still alive, right?"
Aya nodded, "Right."
They both hugged, as Aya was smiling.
"Next time," he added, "If you get angry and lip off, do it at Kotobuki's face, for once."
She replied, "I will, but I doubt it. I'll have to watch myself, from now on. This is like the first time that I went ballistic and yelled that loud. I'm such a jerk."
"No, Aya, you're just feeling honest."
Aya then said in confusion, "But… It was true… Wasn't it?"

Meanwhile, in Ikebukuro, Mami & Harue, along with Yuuya, began preparing for their own movie.
"Damn that Kotobuki!" Mami shouted, "Kill me off like that! And what the hell kind of ending was that? I swear that I'll make a better movie than her!"
Yuuya said in worry, "Poor Mami. She must be a little pissed over the movie."
He then asked Harue, "So, why are you helping her?"
"Yamazaki was the last girl standing, thanks to Hoshino. I'd figure that it's better her, than Kotobuki."
Yuuya was in disdain, "Man… Here we go, again…"
Mami declared, "Next film we co-write, Hoshino is SO not in this one!"
Yuuya said, "Yeah, yeah… To be honest, I never saw her so angry."
Harue scoffed, "She should be in Screen Actors Guild."
Mami then laughed heartily, as the others were in disgust.
Yuuya thought, "Better her, than Ran, huh? Well, that seems fair…"

The next night, Kotobuki was sleeping, still remembering the movie she did. She then thought, "I wonder… Does Aya hate me now? We've had our differences in the past. Still, I'm surprised that she can bitch and complain, just like that."
"And it drove you to kill Rei? You're uber-stupid!" Ran shouted, while being on the ground.
"Stupid? After all that trouble you got me, to get you to make me fall for Otohata-kun? I haven't forgotten the rumor that Shibuya had about you two! It still burns me! How could you hurt me?" Aya shouted, pointing a gun at her.
(This happened, during the movie)
"Aya, what's done is done! Killing me won't bring the ice king back… no one does."
Miyu took a step forward and remarked, "Aya, she's right. Please… stop worrying about what you did. You'll see him again soon. And besides, you've had even bigger problems before."
Aya sighed. She said, "I should've guessed…"
She held the trigger and laughed, "I did have my own demons… But you girls came to me for help."
Miyu nodded and said, "We're all friends. Please… let Ran go."
Aya then smiled and said, "Well, for what it's worth… I kind of did warn you not to take another step forward…"
She turned to Ran and shouted, "DIDN'T I?"
BANG!
Kotobuki was simply scared. She draped the covers over her and was shaken.
"Damn it… I'm beginning to think that the whole movie ordeal was a bad idea," she shivered.

The next day, the others viewed the movie and were amazed by its outcome. All of Ran's friends were astonished, mixed with a portion of disapproval.
"Well, that was awful, killing us off," Rie explained.
Kasumi smiled, "Well, I did have that role pretty well."
Naoki held her tight and said, "At the very least, you were amazing, playing the Benedict Arnold in this movie!"
Kasumi growled, "I wasn't acting!"
Outside, Tatsuki was in tears, after seeing the scene with Aya killing his girlfriend. Ran appeared and asked him, "Why aren't you watching the rest, Tatsukichi? You and Second Place had an uber-amazing duel, there."
He sobbed, "Why did you die, back there, Ran-Chan?"
He got up and cried, "I cannot believe that you died for me… Aya-ppe killed you… and I'll never forgive her. I LOVE YOU, MY RAN! I'M SO HEART-BROKEN!"
"Stupid!"
"OOK?"
"Tatsukichi, it was just a movie! And besides, when Aya shot Otohata, evading the original script, we had to think fast. Didn't you get the message?"
She then snapped, "And I'm still alive, dumbass!"
Tatsuki let out a laugh of relief, "Oh, goodness! Machida Black was lost in the moment! I forgot it was all an act! But having to duel Second Place brother… An amazing performance!"
He then cheered, "Best death scene goes to… Ran Kotobuki!"
Ran laughed, "You are such a drama queen! Aya had the best death in the final scene. You should've seen the ending."
Tatsuki then smiled, "Promise me that you'd never do it again. Don't die on me again!"
He held her and was about to kiss.
"Kiss me… Kiss me, plea-."
WHAM!
Tatsuki was flying, when Ran socked him.
"Alright! FINE! Just keep your smooch-face away from me, you damn idiot!"
In the end, Kotobuki's movie became a huge hit… around Palm Tree. Of course, the film was rejected in Hounan High. It was declared TOO violent… but it DID showed a lot of acting.
Kotobuki never made a film again… but you never can tell, coming from her pea brain of hers.
Kotobuki smiled, as she let out a gleam, "I'm ready for my close-up, mister director!"
Miyu sighed, "Oh, Ran…"
Thanks for reading.
The preceding fan fic you just read is PURELY fan-made and PURELY fictional. No characters were harmed in the filming, uh, writing in this story. Any characters portrayed in this story, living, dead, or otherwise, is a damn dirty shame… just kidding.
But you already know that…
Also, feel free to NOT try to mimic what they just did at home OR anywhere. Trust me. It hurts… like hell.
