welcome to chapter two of A change of heart which I will just let you get straight to the chapter,
Kirumi is sitting up in the bed after Korekiyo just left to go join the others as she just looks at her almost empty plate feeling empty to not be able to take anyone's tasks but also severely hurt from the injuries of the execution making her look at the chair where Korekiyo after going into Kirumi's room left some spare clothes for the ultimate maid. Kirumi ends up lifting herself up from the bed and lands on the floor on unsteady legs feeling enough pain to almost send her downwards in excruciating pain shocked that she can stand at all from the pain before she finally limp over to the chair and grabs the identical clothing to what she was wearing as she decides to try to limp towards the bathroom to wash up and try to check her wounds just in case.
Kirumi leaves the bathroom now cleaned up with new clothes on as she sees Monosuke waiting in the room to revel he also seemed to survive the class trial as she looks at him a bit confused at the monokub's presence in the room, "Why are you here?" Kirumi asks as she stops where she is and looks at the Monokub who walks over to the door after noticing that she is in the main room now. "Before Monodam stripped Pops' title of being headmaster from him which by the way happened he wanted us to make sure you were somehow in the vicinity of the flashback light when it's being used so come on." Monosuke says a bit impatently as he opens the door and leads Kirumi out of the dorms carefully not to meet up with any of the other students on accident.
The two end up walking to the dining hall but stops in the store with the door ajar as they watch everyone walk by to the dining hall with Kirumi now and then wincing in pain since she haven't fully recovered from the punishment, after everyone enters the dining hall the two walk back out in the hall with Monosuke opening the door just enough for Kirumi to look in. After they use the flashback light Kirumi starts to remember a memory of what looks like a funeral for her and the rest of the class making her step backwards a little bit afraid of what she just remembered and decides to go back to the dorms not wanting to be caught and just want to think about the memory as she holds one of her sides feeling pain every time she takes a step.
Korekiyo arrives at his room as he starts to notice the whole dormitory seems like it has been cleaned a bit recently as he enters his room to see Kirumi finishing up cleaning his room surprising him a bit as he closes the door behind him getting her attention as she looks at him and the plate in his hands of food from the dining hall as he notices the bit of pain in her movement and in her eyes. "It is quite interesting to see someone like you in so much pain and still work." Korekiyo comments as he puts the plate on the table as he sees Kirumi sit in the chair with a sigh while looking at the food.
"Well that and I have nothing to do in this room and not being able to really leave the room I decided to clean and to ignore the pain as well." kirumi kind of lies clearly not telling him how she was technically there when they used the flashback light making Korekiyo sit on his bed as he speaks, "There is not much I can do since I don't when a room is empty or when it isn't but also be a bit glad that you weren't there, we used the flashback light and it confused us with Shuichi saying it must be fake sine it was a memory of us looking at what seems to be our funeral or something like that." Korekiyo explains as he stands up seeing her get curious while he eaves the room for a moment making Kirumi start eating while only thinking of what to do now.
The next day, Kirumi decides to lay in bed a bit longer to try to rest since Korekiyo left for the dining hall as she starts to now think if she really should trust the anthropologist, at the moment Korekiyo eventually starts coming back to his room with a plate and a slight sour mood from the Necronomicon motive and the start of the student council as he starts to open the door but stops himself halfway when looking at Kirumi for some reason now reminiscing of him visiting his sister when she was alive and in the hospital.
"She kind of reminds me of you sister being stuck in a spot against you own wants but for different reasons." Korekiyo says before he looks around to make sure he's alone and unzips his mask to let his 'sister' speak, "In some ways yes but she's not me korekiyo because I am with you." Korekiyo replies to himself in the higher pitch voice, "you're right sister." Korekiyo agrees in his regular voice while zipping up the mask before he walks in noticing that Kirumi is now looking curious and a bit concerned to show she might've heard a bit of his conversation.
"Sorry just mumbling to myself about what happened, Angie decided to pretty much start a cult and the next motive is a Necronomicon with the apparent possibility to revive one of the dead, which now that I'm thinking about it we could possibly 'use' it to bring you 'back'." Korekiyo explains lying a bit about the first part now getting Kirumi's full attention with at first a smile until she really thinks about being put back in danger during the killing game making her look downwards at the bed as Korekiyo puts the plate on the table.
"As good as that sounds Korekiyo if you really think about it though if I get put back in two things could possibly happen either Monokuma will find a way to get rid of me or one of the others just won't forgive what I've done and kill me, I just don't think it would be wise nevertheless in my state which would be suspicious to begin with for them." Kirumi points out making Korekiyo nod in agreement as he decides to help her out of help to see a look of pain as he grabs her arm making him look away a bit apologetic before he helps her fully out of bed to see her wince in pain as she walks over to the table and sits down as she just sighs.
"I don't want to think anything negatively but maybe you should have just let me die, being trapped here now definitely unable to escape, I have now failed my duty." Kirumi says softly as Korekiyo looks at her for a moment in a sympathetic way but stops himself as he heads over to the door without looking at her, "well I'm going to be in my lab looking in there, I'll be back later." Korekiyo replies as he leaves the room and closes the door after him leaving Kirumi alone leading to just an unproductive day for her with her being alone until near nighttime when Korekiyo arrives to the room with her meal which when he does this time as he hands her the plate he hears a chuckle from her making him look surprised at why all of a sudden that Kirumi would chuckle.
"It's ironic don't you think Korekiyo the way I'm being treated right now, I killed the ultimate tennis pro which in a way was close enough of being the ultimate prisoner in a way and now I'm kind of being treated in the same way as a prisoner." Kirumi explains with her chuckling coming to a stop making Korekiyo kneel next to her showing an uncharacteristic act of him actually showing sympathy towards her as he starts to think what his sister must've felt in her last days as he puts a hand on kirumi's shoulder.
"I'm not trying to keep you in here like a prisoner here sister it's just for your sake to stay in her for now, I-I mean Kirumi." Korekiyo says as he notices what he accidentally called Kirumi making Kirumi look at him shocked and confused as he steps back panicking a bit trying to call himself without needing his 'sister' to help him. "Korekiyo why didyou call me sister?" Kirumi asks a little concerned for the anthropologist who is still panicking so he takes a quick breather, "Um I didn't call you anything of the sort I'll be back." Korekiyo replies as he runs out of the room and closes the door as he walks outside for a breather and walks to his lab for a quick moment to be alone, when he gets in his lab he closes the door and stands in the room.
"I'm sorry sister it was an accident I will never call her that again!" Korekiyo apologizes while unzipping his mask, "You know I will forgive you Korekiyo but you can't just call her that I am your caring sister not her and she will never be anything close to you like I am." Korekiyo scolds himself as he wraps his arms around himself as if he was imagining someone holing him close to them. "You're right you always ae right sister." Korekiyo agrees with himself in his normal as he continues to do this until it becomes nighttime in which he heads back to the dorms for the night.
The next day, when Korekiyo enters the dorm room with Kirumi's breakfast both of them look uncomfortable especially Korekiyo knowing what Angie did from block the manhole and breaking the flashback light while Kirumi looks at him a bit more cautious of him as he silently puts the plate on the table before Kirumi beaks the silence. "So who what kind of person was your sister?" Kirumi ends up asking catching Korekiyo off guard before he decides to answer her question, "She's always been a sickly girl and ended staying at a hospital." Korekiyo answers trying to not tell her too much as he looks at her briefly as he heads to the door with Kirumi looking over at him feeling a little bad now after hearing that.
now at night, Korekiyo is in one of the empty rooms near his lab while looking at the crosspiece to start sawing it but starts to stop, "I don't think this is smart sis we're even risking Kirumi's life as well." Korekiyo says to himself before unzipping his mask, "Korekiyo do you care for some woman over what your sister wants you to do?" Korekiyo asks himself in a high pitch voice making him seem a little nervous, "No of course not, I only care about you and you know that." Korekiyo replies with a bit of nervousness in his voice, "Then do it and get your sister another friend Korekiyo." Korekiyo commands himself in the high pitch voice making him nod in agreement so he turns back to the middle of the room.
And that is the end of chapter two and like always if you want you can give me your opinion on the story and I will see you in the next chapter.
