BEGINNING AUTHOR NOTES:

Hi! Welcome to my new Battle Royale fanfiction! This is Danielle and I'm so happy that you decided to read this fic. I sure hope you aren't disappointed with whatever you expect of it! Please be sure to read and review, I can't wait to hear your voiced opinion!

Here are some basic facts of the fic.

TITLE: Last Thoughts

AUTHOR: TheSilverDagger

RATING: PG-13 (extreme use of profanity in language.)

GENRE: Action with a touch of romance

PAIRING: Kagura/Shinji

SUMMERY: With the rebellions of young people, the bigwigs of Japan took a meeting and decided on a program called Battle Royale. This popular TV show (officially named The Program) randomly selects a ninth grade class and maroons all forty-three students on an island where they are forced to kill each other until one is left standing. Though most people panic, some play to win, and others...others plan a way to get off the island. Here is the story of Shinji Mimura (Boy No. 19) and Kagura Sano (Girl No. 22) and what their contribution to the game was.

Just for the record, Kagura Sano is a character that I made up because I felt that there weren't that many IMPORTANT female characters besides Noriko Nakagawa (and I'm sorry, but Noriko is just...well...ignorant) and Mitsuko Souma (who is a 'psycho bitch from hell' as Mimura puts it.) So, Kagura Sano is my type of girl who I felt was left out of the manga, movie and book.

Also, this fanfic is based on the manga version. I chose this version (even though I've read the book and the manga and saw BOTH movies) because the manga goes WAY deep into the characters, and I'm all for that. So...yeah. Oh, and I changed A LOT of things around, so if you read the manga, you'll notice a few differences (okay a LOT of differences and DRASTIC differences, but hey, that's why it's called FANFICTION:P) I also use a lot of quotes in the second and third chapter that can be found in Volume 7 of the manga.

In the last chapter of Kagura vs. Kiriyama might sound a little farfetched, but I'm sorry. This was all I could come up with. I'm sorry if it isn't exciting as Sugimura's death or Mimura's death. .

Anyhoo, enjoy the fic! Don't forget to R&R!

Smooches, Danielle
