Okay so new character. Sorry if she's not what anyone wanted but I tried.


Mukuro Ikusaba

A girl with short black hair was lying unconscious on the path near the dorms. The girl was wearing the standard uniform of the school, a beige blazer, brown skirt, white blouse, etc. The two girls who were walking by were all too familiar with the uniform, although they weren't used to seeing people on the ground unconscious in it.

"Hey, Irie," Sekine attempted to whisper, "Is that a new person? I've never seen one myself."

The girl on the ground waited for a reply from 'Irie'.

"How should I know," the second girl was better at whispering than the first, "I've never seen one either."

"Maybe we should see if she's awake. It'd be rude to leave her here."

"Like you care," 'Irie' said as the girl on the ground heard footsteps coming towards her.

The light was blocked out above the girl on the ground so she assumed that someone was above her, and opened her eyes.

"Ahhh!" A girl with long blonde hair -presumably the first girl- jumped away.

"Sekine?" the quiet girl asked worriedly.

"Where am I?" the girl asked.

"Eep!" the purpled haired girl exclaimed.

"Irie, where am I?"

"Y…you're… t…the afterlife…," Irie answered, "How… do you know my… name?"

The girl stood up, h head rushed with memories; most of them had one person in it, her sister. Junko.

"I'm Mukuro. I heard you talking."

"Ugghh," it was the girl Mukuro had spooked, "Mukuro? Right, just head over to the school there and try and find the Principal's office. G' night," the girl began to walk off.

"Sekine," Irie whined, "we have to take her to Yurippe. We can't just leave her."

"Well she creeps me out so you take her," Sekine, the blonde girl, walked off.

Irie turned to face Mukuro, "Ummm… Just, uhhh, follow me," she said as she began to walk towards the school like building.

The two walked in silence until Mukuro spoke, "Did you say the afterlife?"

"Ummm, yeah," Irie didn't expand on the 'afterlife' point by herself.

"So, I'm dead," Mukuro asked, she had memories of her death, she didn't need to ask the question, but she wanted more information.

"Yes," Irie said very quietly.

"She must remember her death clearly too," Mukuro thought.

They walked in silence until they reached to main entrance of the school. Mukuro pictured a large steel circle blocking the entrance, like what she had helped to put up at-

"Ummm… sorry if I get us lost," Irie interrupted Mukuro's thoughts, "My directions aren't too great and I don't usually go there alone."

Mukuro nodded as they began to walk through the school.

It took no longer than 5 minutes to find the principal's office.

"Wait here please," Irie said at the end of the hall.

Mukuro did as she was told whilst Irie went up to the door and muttered something.

The door swung open.

Irie beckoned Mukuro towards her.

"Irie? What are you doing here?" a voice from inside the room asked.

"Ummm…. Well… I… I found someone…"

Mukuro stepped in front of the door frame and saw a girl with magenta-purple hair, with a mint ribbon in it, staring at Mukuro with her sea green eyes.

"Well," the girl started, "thank you for bringing her here, you can go to your room if you like. I can take care of her."

Irie nodded and ran quickly down the hall.

The girl sat on the desk at the back of the room and smiled, "I'm Yurippe, nice to meet you."

The girl seemed to have done this many times, "Mukuro. Is everyone here dead?"

Yurippe's smile almost faltered, almost, "Almost everyone. There are NPCs-non-player characters- that are just, well exactly that. They're pretty much just programmes. Other than that, everyone's dead and had a horrific childhood, so they're here."

"So everyone here had troubled childhoods."

"Tragic mostly, but yes," Yurippe paused, "Do you remember all of your life?"

"I remember my death, so I presume so."

Yurippe nodded and began to think, so did Mukuro. "Tragic. Well not exactly tragic. Well, except for THE tragedy.

"We're all fighting against God. For giving us unfair lives. If you'd like to help."

"Do you have weapons?" Mukuro asked. She could use pretty much any weapon. Well, you'd have to be able to if you're the Ultimate Mercenary.

Yurippe laughed, "Well no one has asked me that first. But yes. What were you when you were alive?"

"I was a missionary. For a while."

"Well, you're welcome to help us if you want."

"I'll think about it," Mukuro said as she walked out of the room.

She heard Yurippe laugh as she walked down the hall.


Yay! I'm fairly happy with this chapter but I still need ideas. I think I'm going to have three chapters of the new character then do something other chapter(s). In case anyone's wondering these are happening between the second and third episodes of Angel Beats!.
