Maybe an unnecessary chapter?


Chapter 8

Dan Nomura and Rena Bando couldn't have seen the warehouse events within doors, however they heard almost everything and realized, that something happened between the four students. Some misunderstandings.

After they went into the house, those two outside had heard nothing, but chirping of the cicadas. This harmonic silence was out soon - a clash, screams, then sound of a gunshot slit into the atmosphere. These screams could be understood in shreds, so Dan and Rena couldn't figure out, what had happened.

Both of them stood dumbfounded as the gunfire ended - it was clear: one of their classmates died today. They needed some time to recover themselves.

Rena cuddled up to Dan with shivering body, but was very careful not to touch his wounds.

"I don't want to go in." she whimpered.

Dan kissed her face, and then set out for the warehouse, pulled Rena gently with him.

"But, we have to go. The others can be here in any minute. There might be someone else, who will kill without hesitation."

They looked around carefully as they had on their way, every sound, every voice could mean the presence of someone from the 3/e.

"Who do you think that gave the deadly shot?"

"I don't know. Fuyuki was the turd here, but you know Shoda. He's quite hot headed and always throws his weight about... so: no bid."

"And what if, they are still in there? The murderer at least?"

"You can be right." the boy had a sigh "let's wait a bit."

Meanwhile they've reached the warehouse, so they could have a rest. Dan stood with a moan against the wall with the ears on the elevator-like door. He listened for minutes long, till then his girlfriend watched the bushes after new classmates.

Maybe because of that or maybe it was just the wind, but the shrubs in the near started moving - some others have reached the location perhaps?

The couple hesitated no longer. They have spent many time here, stayed longer as necessary, so it's very likely, more students arrived. So they typed their name by the device quickly - at least they knew how the system works, thanks to Shoda, Fuyumi, Nana and Fuyuki - it was easy to open the door.

They stepped into the building and after a dark forefront, that light room came next, which smelled like in the hospital - there was only one person there: the cold body of Baku Shoda.
