I hated the idea of "Mutual Killing". Murder a classmate to graduate? Sounds awful. Live the rest of your life with the burden of knowing that you took someone else's life. Great. I didn't know that I would become the first murderer.

Sayaka Maizono. Super High School Level Pop Idol. My victim. I didn't know what to do after I came to terms with the fact that I'd murdered her. I tried my best to hide the evidence, but it wasn't good enough. I was found guilty and was sentenced to execution.

The next thing I know, I'm being dragged by the collar around my neck and into a batting cage. I'm them tied to a post. A machine gun rises from the ground and begins shooting baseballs at me. That doesn't seem bad at first, but then the baseballs hit harder and faster. I can feel my bones breaking as I scream in agony. Then, everything goes dark. I'm dead.

Maizono-san...
