Since this is coming out late, hope everyone had some happy holidays! I don't have an elimination to do, so I decided to write a non-death chapter. Killing everyone is boring anyways.
There was talk about additional security cameras being installed on the outside of the school. Yandere-chan tried not to pay any attention to it, but that was hard. In her little classroom, the conversations her classmates were having carried very easily, hard to ignore.
Yandere-chan just sat at her desk. Oh, where was the teacher? She desperately wanted the class to start, just so people would stop talking. She couldn't just run out. She had to act natural.
"...yeah. Haruka going missing pretty much did it. I bet she's dead."
Yandere-chan's heart began to pound. Of course Haruka wasn't dead, just merely locked in her basement! But just hearing the names of missing or dead students...hopefully nobody would connect anything to her.
"I bet these cameras won't do anything. If it took that many deaths to install a stupid security system, why bother!? The Assassin probably won't care."
I hope you're right, Yandere-chan thought.
Finally, the teacher arrived and class began. Yandere-chan was having such a hard time concentrating on the lesson. She copied the notes written on the board and scribbled down answers, but her mind was somewhere else. Thinking about recent events. If it looked like she had something to do with them.
A few hours passed in what felt like an eternity. The day was over and everybody was let go. Yandere-chan wasted no time jumping from her seat. But just like always, she was stuck staying behind and helping her classmates clean the classroom. She was handed a pair of chalkboard erasers and told to dust them out on the roof. As Yandere-chan clapped them together and closed her eyes, she heard someone come up beside her.
"Hey. Are you Aishi?"
"Y-yeah. Why do you care?"
Standing on her left was a delinquent, with dark brown hair that had a teal streak. A mask covered her mouth and she was casually leaning against the railing. "Osoro wanted me to tell you this. Meet her behind the showers. As soon as possible. Trust me, you never want to keep her waiting."
Yandere-chan's stomach began to churn. What could Osoro want from her? Was she exposed? "Did she tell you anything else?"
"Nothing that I know of."
That wasn't much of a relief. The delinquent left and Yandere-chan finished clapping out the erasers. Time to check out what Osoro wanted.
A few minutes later, Yandere-chan and Osoro were standing a few feet apart. Both glared at the other girl, not wanting to be the first to break eye contact. Finally, Osoro just rolled her eyes and stretched her arms above her head.
"If you even dare to take one step closer, I will not hesitate to slit your throat." Yandere-chan hissed. "I have a knife." She stuck her hands into her skirt pocket to make it look as if she was searching for something, even though it was a bluff.
"I'm quivering with fear. But I have no reason to attack you. I wanted to ask you something."
"Is that all?"
"That's all."
"F-fine. Ask away."
"Why did you kill my croonie?"
"I told you, it was an accident. You think I actually have the guts to murder-"
"So you didn't hear everyone gossiping about how she didn't survive." Osoro shook her head.
Yandere-chan froze in fear. "Are you calling me a murderer?"
"I called you nothing, I simply asked you a question." The delinquent leader's eyes narrowed. "Unless you have something to hide..."
The air around the two students suddenly felt very chilly. Yandere-chan was certain that dark cloud hadn't been there earlier. She could feel her heart thump like crazy, as if to tell her something. It's a trap! it's a freaking trap!
"Uh, no! I'm just some boring student who you saw whack a classmate with a shovel two days ago! I have absolutely nothing interesting going on in my life, no dark secrets to hide, no juicy gossip, none of that! NONE! You're just wasting your time jumping to conclusions and accusing me of the most stupid things!"
Osoro said nothing. It looked like she was processing the information, but didn't believe it. She folded her arms and tapped her foot against the dirt ground.
"Okay then," she finally said after a minute or two. "That still doesn't answer my question. Why did you do it?"
What am I supposed to tell her? Yandere-chan couldn't just blurt out the truth. She would get arrested. Lying was the safest answer, but how long would she be able to keep up the tale? All she could do was dance around Osoro's words and hope for the best.
"Well...it's because...I..." Yandere-chan stopped suddenly when a hand clamped down onto her shoulder. She looked behind her, only to stare right into the cold eyes of Megami Saikou.
"What is going on here? Why do you sound so frustrated?"
"I'm not-" Yandere-chan stopped suddenly when Megami pushed her aside and addressed Osoro. "I'm sorry, but your conversation will have to wait. I need to chat with this student here."
"This isn't finished, Aishi!"
As Megami marched her back into the school, Yandere-chan could hear Osoro yelling at her. She was brought into a storage room, empty except for some folded tables and chairs. Megami quickly opened up two chairs and placed them in front of one another. "Sit."
Yandere-chan did as she was told.
"I don't know why you look so scared. I just wanted to talk."
"Yeah, but...you were so sudden...and..."
Megami gave her a warm smile. To Yandere-chan, it looked completely fake.
"I think you might have noticed, I am talking in a calm and quiet voice. There is no reason behind this, other than for us to have a nice, ladylike chat."
"It feels like a trip to the guidance counselor."
"That's exactly what I'm going for."
Despite the tone of Megami's voice, Yandere-chan didn't trust her. "You know, drop the act. Drop it. We both know I don't operate this way. So if you're gonna say it, then say it."
"Fine. I will."
Megami leaned in forward, almost completely off her chair. "I know who you are, Ayano Aishi. I know the threat you pose to this school. I know the kind of things you do. I know everything about you. I know who you are."
"If you really know who I am, then you'd know that my real name isn't Ayano Aishi."
As soon as Yandere-chan said the words, she instantly regretted them. Megami's stare was harsher than ever. "Is that so?"
"That's all you're getting out of me. I'm not telling you anything else."
"I don't need anything else."
Freezing up, Yandere-chan frantically searched Megami's cold expression. "You...weren't joking."
"I never joke. Never. I am more concerned about the safety and reputation of Akademi then anybody else at the school. It's been tarnished before, but I am not going to let that happen again. You are a danger to my mission of keeping the school grounds a secure place for all those who attend. Trust me, if I catch you hurting another student..."
The two girls were now inches from each other. Yandere-chan's back was pressed against the chair and Megami was just barely sitting on hers.
"There will be consequences."
"Oh really?" Yandere-chan asked. "Is that a threat?"
"No, it's a promise."
With that Megami got up and strutted down the hallway.
Oh boy, Megami is looking really angry. and Osoro getting skeptical isn't going to help either. What could this mean for Yandere-chan?
Requests are still open! Don't be afraid to send one or two in!
