A/N: Hey everyone! I'm truly sorry for how long I've been away from this story, but I'm fully ready and prepared to continue, and finish, the story. After this one, there's less than ten more chapters, which I will get started typing A.S.A.P. Thanks to Annoymas for their review on the last chapter!

Another flash of landed them inside Ooishi's car with Rika in the backseat.They could somehow hear what Rika was thinking.

'The key to everything. To forgive each other, to promise each other. That should have been the magic key to defeat those demons of suspicion that lurk within. However, even armed with that key, there is still a mystery in Hinamizawa that remains locked. Yes, that's how it is. All right. I'll play the game with this endless June. As much as you please.'

The flash was different this time. Instead of fading to a new place, it just stayed. It was like a plain white room that went on forever. Rena was crying.

"How could I have hurt you all like that? I could have killed Mion and nearly sliced Keiichi!" Rena yelled.

Mion and Keiichi looked at each other and Mion took charge. "Alright, look everyone. We all understand that we did those things when we were sick and out of our heads. We get that everything was unintentional and full of regret, so no one should get blamed for their actions, alright?" They all nodded in agreement.

Hanyuu smiled and transported them to Shion's world.

As they were being transported, Rika thought to Hanyuu, 'They're very accepting of all this. Maybe they can forgive without succumbing to previous fates."

Hanyuu sighed mentally and replied, 'I hope so. Hopefully I'm not going too fast and can learn to adapt like you have.'

When they could see, their eyes showed them a dungeon. Shion and Mion automatically identified it as one of the chambers beneath their house and told the others.

The Shion of this world was sitting on a bench talking to the head of the family who was tied and hanging by a chain that just barely allowed him to stand. Shion told him she would lengthen the chain for each answered question. She went over to a machine and released it enough for him to fall to the ground and talk to her. He insisted he knew nothing, so she asked for his opinion. When he refused to answer, she raised the chain to force him to sit up and look at her.

He apologized and she lengthened the chain. She asked the question again. He said it was hard to think he was alive. Shion became irritated, walked up to him, and kneeled. She said Satoshi only disappeared because he was a Houjou. They then discussed the rumors involving Satoshi's murder, until Shion asked who was responsible. They family head responded that he didn't know, but Shion retorted that a corpse was never found. The man raised his head and looked at the doors behind Shion. She turned around and ran through them to a room of cells. She walked into one that contained a cliff. She screamed downwards for Satoshi, but with no answer in return. She walked out and up to a cell containing Mion in a torn, white dress. Shion told her that she found Satoshi in the hole and asked if she was present during the murder. Mion wearily said she wasn't, but if she had been, she would have stopped it. Shion began to scream and kick the metal bars, saying that Mion was lying and she should have saved him.

When they reopened their eyes, they saw Mion ("It's really Shion dressed as Mion," Rika corrected.) kneeling with Rika standing next to her. Rika sprayed something on Shion that burned her eyes, forcing her to the floor. Rika pulled her up by her ponytail and flipped her over. She took a needle full of yellow liquid from her pocket, but Shion grabbed her arms, forcing her to spray again, getting it in her own eyes. Shion grabbed the opportunity and threw her off. Shion stood and took out a taser from her pocket and challenged Rika to come closer. They stood still for a few seconds until Shion kicked up some newspapers to block Rika's vision, and then shocked her with the taser, causing her to fall and drop the spray. Shion came over and kicked the needle out from Rika's hand. She grabbed it and injected it into Rika. Rika started to convulse and cough. Shion laughed as Rika stood and moved over to a table that had a butcher's knife atop it.

She picked it up and walked over to the wall across from Shion. Shion told her that she couldn't resist any torture because of her weak body. Rika agreed and told Shion that she'd rather leave. Shion laughed and told her to try if she could. Rika held the knife like she was going to stab Shion, prompting Shion to hold out the taser again, but she held the knife so the handle was on the wall and the tip faced her head. She pushed her head onto the knife multiple times until the knife fell, along with Rika, onto the ground in a bloody pool. Shion laughed and cheered that she had finally killed all responsible for Satoshi's death.

A/N: With school starting up again next week, updates will be far between each other, but I will not forget about this story and I WILL finish it! :) Remember to leave me a review below!
