As Asuka left the Library, Yashiro felt a bit dazed. She walked out of the library and looked back towards the door.
"What was I doing in the Library?" Asked Yashiro. "Meh, it doesnt matter, I should probably get to bed."
"Yashiro..."
"Mmm?"
"Yashiro!"
"Whatttt?"
"Yashiro, get your butt up now."
"I dont wanna."
"Yashiro..."
"Ugh, fine."
Yashiro rolled over to see Rie standing there. Her long black hair fell over her grey overcoat. Her lips were pursed and she had a resting bitch face currently on.
"Why are you waking me up?" Yashiro asked.
"What are you talking about? This is my normal self," responded Rie, her face suddenly turning sad.
"Great, so you're forgetting your personality..." muttered Yashiro.
"What?"
"Oh nothing," Yashiro said.
"Oh, ok! Get on down to the cafeteria," Rie said with a large smile on her face. She turned on her toes and skipped away.
"Huh? I don't remember waking up..." Yashiro said as she started to get ready.
Yashiro walked to the cafeteria and the place was a total mess. Kana was walking into a wall, Seiko had her face in her eggs, Nari was only speaking Thai, Rie was skipping throughout the chairs while throwing sticks of butter into the air as she sang. Velia was a sobbing mess, Fujihara was screaming at Finacal, and Maeve was whispering 'where am I?' over and over again. The only normal ones at the moment seemed to be Seco, Tomohiro, Arisu, Lilth, Asuka, Finacal, and Yashiro. Yashiro went and sat next to Tomohiro, and Lilth came to sit next to Tomohiro.
"This is madness," Lilth whispered.
"What the hell happened?" Asked Yashiro.
"It's because of what all they forgot and or are forgetting," said Tomohiro.
"Like what?" Whispered Arisu as she came and sat next to them.
"Well, Kana is just forgetting random things, hard to tell what. Seiko is also forgetting random things, but she also forgot how to walk and speak correctly. Nari has forgotten how to speak English, and Rie has completely forgotten her personality. Velia has forgotten who she is and is a crying, bawling mess. Fujihara has forgotten who all of us are and she is currently screaming at Finacal for answers. Maeve, I think she just forgot where she is, that's it. As for the rest of us, I have no clue. We know that Asuka and Finacal are fine, as well as Seco, so its just down to us 4 to find out what we will forget," Tomohiro explained.
"Wow, that's a lot to remember," Arisu said.
"Hey Yashiro, thanks again for yesterday, it was a lot of fun," Asuka said walking up to the small group.
"What do you mean?" Asked Yashiro.
"We sang kareoke yesterday, remember?"
"No... not at all," Yashiro responded with a shake of her head.
"Wait, Yashiro, who woke you up?" Asked Lilth.
"I woke up by myself..." Yashiro said.
"Well, I know what Yashiro will forget," Tomohiro said.
"And what would that be?" Asked Yashiro.
"When ever you do something with someone, if they leave your eyesight, you will forget all that happened with them," Tomohiro said.
"So basically, once I left the library before Yashiro, she forgot all about our singing?" Asked Asuka.
"Exactly," said Lilth.
"Oh crap..." muttered Yashiro.
After breakfast, Arisu, Seco, Asuka, Tomohiro, Yashiro, and Finacal helped the others back to their beds. Lilth had started to forget her current memories rapidly. Tomohiro had her by the feet as Asuka carried her head. Lilth was a flopping mess by the time they got her to her bed.
Yashiro went back with Tomohiro so she wouldn't forget anything he, or the others had said. Tomohiro wrote down a list of everyone's sympyoms so when he walked away she would remember them. They were in the laundry room when the monitor fired up.
[] Ding Dong, Bing Bong []
"If everyone would please meet in the main area, I have an announcement that I'd like to make," Monosaki said with a smile, then a wave of her little paw.
"Might as well go, we are right here," Tomohiro said.
Yashiro picked up the piece of paper and walked along side Tomohiro out of the room into the large area. Yashiro noticed the others walking out of the Sleeping Quarters, some helping others walk and manage. Nari walked out of the cafeteria along with Arisu and Velia. Velia was still crying, but not as much. Nari was ranting about something in Thai, and Arisu looked somewhat dazed. Back towards the Sleeping Quarters, Fujihara was helping Seiko walk.
"No, es tiem for nite nite," muttered Seiko.
"Just shut up," said Fujihara.
Kana was staring off into no where land, and Lilth was in the arms of Finacal as she squirmed around. Rie was skipping in circles around Maeve, clapping and cheering. Seco wheeled up behind Asuka and gave Rie a look. Yashiro and Tomohiro walked all the way around the stage to where everyone else was.
"Now that you're all here, I can make my announcement," Monosaki started.
"And who the hell is this squirrel toy thing?" Asked Fujihara.
"I know who it is, but I don't know who I am!" Exclaimed Velia as she burst into more tears.
"Yeah, Yeah," Monosaki said with a flick of her wrist. "Anyway, this news is big, big news. Since you guys passed the first trial, a new section of the building has been opened up to you!"
"How is that big news?" Asked Finacal.
"Well, now you guys can explore and enjoy more of this fabulous Academy of Hope!" Monosaki cheered.
"Yayyyy!" Shouted Rie as she skipped away.
"The new area is just past the Sleeping Quarters. Behind the bars are a large set of steps, and that is the next area," Monosaki explained.
"Dạngnận thuk khrậng thī̀ mī khır bāng khn tāy læa reā h̄ā p̄hū̂ thī̀ reā dị̂ rạb rāngwạl kạb s̄̀wn h̄ım̀? S̄ìng thī̀ reā s̄unạk̄h thī̀ pheìng reīyn rū̂ khel̆d lạb h̄ım̀?" Nari said in Thai.
"I have the translation, she said 'So basically everytime someone dies and we find out who, we get rewarded with a new section? What are we, dogs that just learned a new trick?'" Said Seco.
"Yes, obviously, because as long as you are here, you are under my Master's control," Monosaki said while throwing her hands into the air.
"Who the hell even is your master?" Asked Asuka.
"Oh, well it's one of you silly! One of you are the mastermind... I'm surprised you guys didn't get that earlier, huh, you guys must be dumber than I thought," Monosaki responded.
"Ish dat a treht?!" Seiko babbled.
"What the heck is a treht? And no, its not a threat, its the truth," Monosaki said.
"Ok, listen you weird squirrel, five nights at freddy's lookin, demonic thing of shit, this is messed up, so why don't you open up the doors and just let us free, mhm?" Fujihara said, letting go of Seiko and making her faceplant.
"Sorry, can't do that. Just remember, the mastermind is one of you guys. Anyhoo, happy killing!" Monosaki said before she disappeared.
"So I guess we can now go up those stairs?" Asked Tomohiro.
"S-sure," Yashiro responded.
Everyone headed back towards the Sleeping Quarters. Fujihara put down Seiko and Velia went and layed down. More people went to go lay down or relax. The people going up decided to meet by place where the bars used to be. Nari, Yashiro, Asuka, Seco, Tomohiro, Finacal, Fujihara and Arisu were all by the opening. They walked up the two sets of stairs to see a large hallway type area. There was two doors on the left side, and two on the right. On the far side was an incredibly large Monosaki head. The white and orange head was larger that a normal single story house. Yashiro looked over at Seco who's mouth just hung open. Suddenly, Arisu was walking forward infront of the group. She suddenly turned around and continued to walk. Her eyes were shut and her hands out infront of her.
"Arisu?" Asked Yashiro.
"Huh? What's going on?" She responded.
"Arisu... Arisu!" Shouted Seco.
"Arisu watch out!" Yelled Asuka.
"What the hell are you guys so worri-" Arisu started.
Arisu walked right off the side of the steps and fell. A small crunch was heard as the group ran to the side. She layed, sprawled across the floor. Her eyes closed tightly. Her chest moved slowly with the slight breathes she was taking. Finacal, Nari, Asuka, and Fujihara ran down the steps to her aid. Fujihara placed her fingers against Arisu's neck and paused for a second.
"She is alive," Fujihara said."Thank god..." Yashiro sighed in relief.
Finacal cradled her and brought her into the Sleeping Quarters and promised he would watch over her.
The rest of the people in the group walked back up the stairs. They decided to split off into groups. Asuka and Fujihara in the first door on the left. Tomohiro and Nari in the first door on the right. Seco and Yashiro in the second door on the right, and they would all check out the last room together. Yashiro trailed behind Seco as Seco wheeled away towards the door quickly.
Yashiro luckily was able to remember all of the conversations so far. She still couldn't believe that she was forgetting things so important. Any encounter with anyone could be usefull during the next trial. Wait what? No, Yashiro couldn't think like that. No one else was going to murder. Half the people are too brain dead to figure out which side is their left and which is their right. Yashiro has to just think about the positive, if she could remember the positive.
Yashiro walked through the door that Seco had nicely opened for her. Yashiro got a good look around and what was in the room. A large pool table and an air hockey were the two main things in this room, being right in the center. Off to the side a little bit was a foosball table. On the farthest wall was a few arcade games. Yashiro noticed Pacman and Fix-It-Felix Jr. On the closest wall to her left, was a whole row of chess boarda set up. Several of them were lined up in 'check mate' situations.
"Pretty nice game room they have here," commented Yashiro.
"Yea, its nice I suppose," Seco said while playing with her pearl necklace.
"So... this may be a bit straight forward, but how did you end up in a wheelchair?" Asked Yashiro.
"Uhm. It... well you see... when I was born, the doctors had to take a few tests on me. They found out that I was paralyzed. It was something with the chemicals in my mom's stomach that made it that way. But yeah..."
"Oh... you didn't have to answer. I kind of expected you to blow me off. But thanks for telling me."
"Yeah, sure. Don't mention it."
"Hey, why don't we play a quick game of air hockey?" Asked Yashiro.
"Sure," started Seco with a smirk. "It will be as easy as speaking russian," Seco said cockily.
After about 10 minutes of playing, Yashiro had beat Seco 15-6.
"Well shit," Seco said with a smile.
"Never under estimate a midget," commented Yashiro.
The two walked out of the game room. The rest of the group was already at the last door talking. Seco and Yashiro walked up to them.
"What's going on?" Asked Seco.
"Nothing much. This last door is locked just by the way," Asuka responded.
"Yeah. Ok, what's really going on?" Seco asked again with a look towards Asuka.
"Its true. This door is locked and we were discussing why we thought it was," Fujihara stepped in.
"Oh, I also have figured out more about Nari's situation. She can understand english fully, but is incapable of speaking it. So basically we can talk to her in english, but she can't talk to us in english," Tomohiro said.
"Interesting," Seco said while playing with her necklace some more. "So is this it for up here? What were the other rooms like?"
"H̄̂xng thī̀ reā mī k̆ khụ̄x s̄ra ẁāy n̂ả," Nari stated plainly.
"Uhhh, I have no idea what she said, but it is probably about our room being a pool. Nothing too interesting in there," Tomohiro said looking at Nari and she gave him a thumbs up.
"We had a basic room as well. It had a few trees in it with pink leafs. Therr was also like a smokepit thing in the middle. It was odd..." Asuka said.
"Hmm," Seco said.
Yashiro was going to start talking when the normal starting up of the monitors started up. She closed her mouth and the whole group paid its attention.
[] Ding Dong Bing Bong []
"Attention to all the little adventurers, its time to head to bed. Hopefully you all have nice dreams and can remem- oh wait. Nevermind! Hahahah!" Monosaki said as the monitor shut off.
Everyone started walking down the steps when Yashiro heard Seco whisper.
"Tempo per iniziare."
Rie woke up Yashiro. Yashiro once again felt the tingling in her head and she couldn't remember anything that happened yesterday. Tomohiro came over to her and recapped some of the important things that happened.
Yashiro and Tomohiro walked to the cafeteria together. It was a mess like usual. Velia was crying into her toast and Nari was screaming at Fujihara in Thai. Fujihara ignored her completely. Rie was laughing and throwing people's breakfast bars across the room. Seiko was once again face first in her food. Arisu was trying to stab a piece of hashbrowns with her eyes shut. Asuka had her eyes wide open as Kana tripped over a chair and he fell into Maeve's lap.
Yashiro went and sat next to Fujihara. Tomohiro sat on her other side and he started eating.
"So is Lilth still doing bad?" Yashiro asked Fujihara.
"Huh? The other girl with black and white hair? Yeah, she is still in bed, flopping around worse than a damn fish out of water," Fujihara responded.
"Pass the ketchup?" Asked Yashiro.
"Yeah sure," Fujihars responded. As she handed Yashiro the ketchup, their hands touched. Fujihara blushed, looked away, and let go of the bottle.
"Th-thanks."
"D-do you want to do something after breakfast?" Fujihara asked.
"Sure."
After breakfast, everyone calmed down and either went to their bed, or to some other room. Fujihara and Yashiro were in the girl's bathroom. Yashiro was sitting ontop of the counter. Fujihara smashed her lips against Yashiros and Yashiro pushed back with just as much intensity. Their breathing was far from inbetween. Their kiss was passionate and true. Fujihara tossed Yashiro's hat off and ran her hands through Yashiro's strawberry blonde hair. Yashiro runs her hands through Fujihara's hair, only to make the kiss more crazy. They finally took a breath and broke apart.
"Wow..." Yashiro gasped.
"I know right," Fujihara smirked. They put their foreheads together and just looked into each other's eyes.
They suddenly went back to kissing. Yashiro took her gloves off and put her hands back in Fujihara's black, wavy hair. They broke the kiss and Yashiro helped Fujihara take off her tie dye crop top. They continued the kiss for a bit longer before Yashiro unbuttoned her shirt and tossed it across the room. They continued their kiss once again.
Yashiro's eyes shot open when Fujihara stuck her tounge into her mouth. Yashiro allowed Fujihara to enter as they fought for dominence. Fujuhara put her hands on Yashiro's hips and pulled them closer. Suddenly the door flew open as Seco wheeled in.
"OH MY GOD WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?!" Seco shouted.
Yashiro yelped and said, "Nothing, I-i swear..."
"Uhm. I suddenly dont have to pee anymore," Seco said.
Fujihara went to go grab her shirt and tossed Yashiro hers. Yashiro finished getting dressed and fixed her hair before putting on her hat.
"Like seriously, please don't say anything," Yashiro said, her face bright red.
"Fine, fine... I saw nothing," Seco said putting her hands up.
"Thank you... we... we uhm," Fujihara started.
"Don't... I don't want any details. None. Not a single one. Im good without the deets on the girl x girl action shit."
The three girls walked out of the bathroom and met Tomohiro and Finacal outside.
"Hey, there you are, Yashiro. I was starting to get worried," Tomohiro said with a smile.
"What were you guys doing in there?" Asked Finacal.
"Uhm... we were. Talking," Yashiro said.
"Ok?" Finacal said, confused.
"Anyway, whats been going o-" Fujihara started before she was cut off by something.
"I got my ticket for the long way 'round"
"What the hell?" Asked Seco, messing with the front of her neck.
"Two bottle 'a whiskey for the way"
"It sounds like it's coming from upstairs. Quick, grab everyone!" Tomohiro said as they started picking up people and heading up the stairs.
"And I sure would like some sweet company, And I'm leaving tomorrow, wha-do-ya say?"
The group was about halfway up the steps.
"When I'm gone, When I'm gone."
"Its coming from over there," said Maeve.
"You're gonna miss me when I'm gone."
"What is going on?" Asked Kana half focused. They were almost to the door.
"You're gonna miss me by my hair, You're gonna miss me everywhere, oh."
They opened up the door as the last words were sung.
"oh, You're gonna miss me when I'm gone..."
"Oh shiiiittt," said Seiko.
