A/N: As you can see I combined some chapters and edited. If anyone wants an anime recommendation I would suggest "Katekyo Hitman Reborn" my favorite manga/anime ever. The manga version is better in my opinion, and in the beginning there were a lot of filler chapter/episodes. But I highly recommend it.
I actually cried when I read the last chapter. That's what anime/manga does to you.
*As you can see, In the last chapter, I gave names to the 'Three cloaked figures', the girl is Six, the boy is Ten, and the newbie is newbie. Rofl, she doesn't get a number yet.
Btw, there's a summary of the last chapter down in the bottom Author's Note, check it out if you didn't get the last chapter.

Chapter 6: Trouble
"How annoying/Fuyukai Desu" -Mirai Kuriyama
Inori lightly hummed as she walked through the garden, a tour guide map in her hands, wrinkled from the rough handling of it.
She grinned at the brightly colored flowers, and the intricately cut hedges. The cheery setting eased her mind.
Her smile faltered for a moment as she remembered the drill the other night, calling Lucy and her back to their inn. Was it truly a drill? She remembered a chill creeping up her spine. Her face frozen in fear.
Something had happened that night, Inori knew it.
She heaved an sigh, her thoughts broken by a loud wail.
"What do we do know, Charle? I got lost just like last year!"
Inori curiously peered through the hedge to see a blue-haired girl and a white flying cat.
Flying...Cat?
Her head suddenly throbbed, and it surprised her, it surprised her that while the notion of a flying cat might've of caused disbelief, she wasn't surprised at all.
Her head throbbed even more.
The cat sniffed disdainfully. "You lost the map again?"
Inori blinked.
Talking...Cat?
And strangely enough, this didn't faze her either. The cat spoke soothingly to the girl who had now brightened up, her eyes hardening in determination.
"Yeah! We'll get out of this, won't we?"
Inori thought about leaving before they noticed her presence, but Inori wouldn't be able to forgive herself if she left a small girl in the middle of a huge garden.
"Umm..." Inori began, nervously smiling. "If your lost then you can use this" she extended her hand with the map in it.
The girl lit up. "Really! Than-" she stopped and then frowned. "What about you?"
Inori laughed. "I remembered the way in, already"
The girl's eyes widened in admiration "Ehh? Really? That's so cool! Miss...um...Miss"
Inori grinned "Inori, and you?"
"Wendy!" the girl chirped back.
"I see, well" Inori looked at the darkening sky. If she wasn't back soon then everyone would worry. "I have to go!"
She waved at Wendy who smiled and waved back. "Don't lose this map either!" Inori said wagging a finger. Wendy blushed.
"H-hai..."
Inori warmly smiled, putting a reassuring head on the girl's head. "Get home soon alright? It's not safe for girls this young to be out late"
"H-hai..."
Wendy couldn't explain the sudden warmth that poured through her body as Inori waved goodbye. The last time she had felt this way was when...when...Lucy was still back. When Lucy had acted like her big sister.
Lucy...Lucy...Lucy...
"Wendy?" Charle's sharp voice had snapped her out of her reminiscing. Wendy laughed. "She reminds me of Lucy-san..."
Charle blinked in surprise. "Lucy?"
Wendy nodded. Yes, she had smelled Lucy... her mind had become incredibly foggy. She smelled Lucy, yes! It was Lucy!
She raised her noise into the air.
"I smell Lucy!" She said happily.
"What? But...she's dead..." Charle added, wincing at her words. Something was wrong with Wendy. Wendy had never been one to blatantly ignore her words. She knew that Inori girl was suspicious...
Wendy hesitantly raised the map to her nose and sniffed.
Her eyes snapped open.
"Charle! I smell Lucy...it's faint...b-but its her!, I'm sure of it!"
Charle sighed. "I suppose..."
Wendy turned. "Yes, Charle?"
"N-nothing..." Charle muttered.
"Everyone will be so happy!" Wendy said. Charle had closed her eyes as an warning of impending doom made her shiver in fear. She had missed the way Wendy's eyes had flashed a shade of red.
Crimson red.
A laugh.
"That's right...go tell all of your guild friends about your discovery, Wendy.." a voice drawled happily, if not a bit crazed sounding.
She giggled as if someone had told her a joke, completely ignoring the sickening noise of blood dripping down the wall. Mutilated bodies were spread out with severed heads.
She abruptly stopped laughing and frowned.
"Now there's blood everywhere" she glared at the bodies.
"Well" she maniacally grinned, as she sat down next to the severed head, she frowned.
The head did was missing an eye.
"I hate things uneven!" She shrieked out in utter horror. She quickly glanced all around the room. "Aha!" she stood up and walked to the eyeball where she quickly picked it up. She cheerfully skipped back to the severed head, and put the eyeball in the empty eye socket.
She smiled.
"Do you want to hear a story?"
"Do you want to hear a story?"
The little girl vigorously shook her head as she pouted. "All of your stories are so sad! Okasabe-san!" she said bluntly.
The old woman, Okasabe Kyoko, sighed.
"Those stories are meant to teach, young one" she said, gently patting the young girl's head.
"The one you told me about the really, really, reaaaallllyyy, pretty, spoiled princess that turned into a pig and got eaten by her fiance was sad!" the girl scrunched her nose.
"Wait...if her spoiled princess's fiance ate her...that would mean..." she trailed off, her eyes widened with a dramatic flare.
"Ewwwwww!" she wailed "That's disgusting!"
Okasabe Kyoko smiled gingerly at the young girl. She was going to turn out quite the looker...
She shook her heads to get rid of the thoughts with a smile. "Now, what was the moral of that story?"
The girl immediately spoke, the answer drilled into her head. "Love always brings pain" she said with a chirp.
The woman smiled. "Yes, remember, it will always bring pain. That is why it is better to be without it"
The girl wildly nodded, her blonde locks bouncing as she stared intently into the emerald eyes of Okasabe Kyoko.
Kyoko blinked as she returned the look with a blank stare.
"Ikuto!" the girl suddenly squealed. The staring contest forgotten.
"He's here!" she said pointing outside the window at the young blue haired boy, "look, look! Just like she told me!"
Kyouko smiled fondly at the figure of the small girl opening the thatched door of the small house and running towards the emotionless boy, with sharp emerald eyes.
Kyouko blinked.
"Wait..." she muttered "Who's 'she'?"
"Sweets...sweets...sweets..." the girl murmured as her eyes scanned the rows of bakeries in one section of Crocus. She let out a squeal of delight as she sniffed the air.
"It's smells so good~" she said. Reaching out for the cream puff, a hand slapped her hand out of the way.
"Have some self-restraint, six" Ten murmured out.
"B-b-b-but...it's not fair! I want it!" she childishly pouted out.
"No. Did you forget what we came here to do?"
A grin.
"Of course not! If anyone, it's newbie that forgot!~" six piped out cheerily while pointing at the figure trailing behind them.
"We came here to kill someone" she said emotionally and quietly.
"And that person is...?" Six asked.
"Inori"
"Inori Kikuhara"

Last Chapter Summary~
In the first part of chapter 5 the woman talking is the woman from Inori's dream in chapter 4. She is talking about Inori and Lucy.
The second and third part is just Fairytail and Devil Tear talking about the game. In the third part, there are three people, a man, and two girls, they comment about the games and one of the girls apparently has some sort of rivalry with Cynthia as she gets angry at Cynthia. The other girl (who comments about Lucy) seems to be new to this group, and asks the other girl why she hates Cynthia so much. Where the man replies and gets the girl (who has a rivalry with Cynthia) even angrier than she is. And that scene ends.
The next scene starts somewhere else where the man, or in this case, the master is asking 2 people, a boy and a girl if they have the info. They both reply. They talk about memories and the master asks if the 'girl' shows any sign of regaining her lost memories. The two respond no and he gets mad. The scene ends.
The last scene is a boy and girl. The girl and boy's names are purposely blocked out. So the underscores are in replacement of their names. The girl is crying, there is blood everywhere and she is scared. We can assume that she was the one who killed everyone. The italics is her thoughts calling her a monster for what she did. Her thoughts are broken by a boy calling her name. He tells her that it is fine and that if she wants to forget everything, HE'LL MAKE HER FORGET!
The part I wrote in capitals is important because in the fourth scene the master asks if the girl regained her lost memories *hint hint!* and in the last scene the boy says "I'll make you forget" so the last scene and fourth scene are connected!
There you go. If it's still confusing DM me, I'll help explain it better ^*^
Oh, and guys, if you guys want to, follow me on IG! sometimes, I can't get on my computer (Because my mom confiscates it 24/7) but I have my phone, which I can use IG with, just comment on a photo or DM me and I'll get to you. Oh, and I post anime photos xD
