Aoba discreetly sighed in relief after their departure, he could resume his original plan now that they left.

He would win, he would most definitely win and not let anyone else kill him, he would kill them first.

They stayed at the same place without moving for a while, not knowing what to do.

Anri was the one who broke the silence

"So ... what do we do know?"

Mikado stared at her, as always, amazed by the sweetness of her voice, lost in his dreams he barely noticed when Saki answered

"I guess it would be best to move, we can be spotted more easily if we stay too long at the same place"

All of them nodded.

Kida proposed they'd go at the opposite way of the others, everyone agreed, Aoba was thinking exactly the same, it was frightenning him to think alike as the blonde but he had to recognize that sometimes he had good ideas.

They silently resumed their walk in the forest, everyone of them lost in their thoughts, Aoba trying to think of a way of killing the most people possible without seeming too suspicious to Mikado's eyes, Anri longing for her normal life, Kida attempting to uncover Aoba's suposed plan, Saki trying to find a way out of this and Mikado wondering who he should trust and resolving to protect the girls with his life.

In his mind he seemed very courageous, he didn't realize he raised his eyes to the sky, fist raised as to threaten the whole world.

Anri noticed and lightly chuckled, seeming happy, Mikado looked away, blushing.

Behind them, Aoba was disgusted. He didn't want to admit it but he was definitely becoming more and more jealous. He had to get rid of the others before things got worse.

It was already the middle of the afternoon, they didn't remember for how long they walked but they were starting to be really worn out. Their thoughts were interupted when the youngest of the group screamed that he've seen something.

"There's a building in front of us, it looks like an abandonned warehouse"

Mikado approached from the front of the queue and confirmed his words. Always practical Saki proposed

"What about we sleep there tonight?"

Once again all of them agreed to her proposal and Aoba smirked, thinking he would probably have a lot of opportunities.

This building definitely looked very dangerous.
