Ah and I deliver with another chapter for you pretty people. Spelling and grammatical errors get much worse because it's late and I want to sleep. I'm only going to ask you to review at the end of the last chapter, but feel free to review anytime, all right?


"If someone is strong enough to take him out, then… we're screwed." Mizore breathed. "We need to really find a way out of here before we all die and the killer is the only one to live, maybe claiming that they're the last survivor of the group and just barely managed to hold off from being murdered."

The entire group stared at her dumbstruck. "Sorry, I've been trying to get into the killer's head for a while now."

"Don't try to do that." Ura told her softly. "She's not what you think."

Kurumu scoffed and turned from the vampire. "You would know, wouldn't you, Ghost?"

Ura's eyes flashed momentarily before Mizore said, "Haven't you noticed that the people who call her that usually end up dead?"

"And why do you think that is?" Kurumu demanded. "Because she's the one killing us!"

"Look, we don't know if that's true." Mizore growled.

"Yes we do! She's never in our sights until after we find out someone was murdered."

"Well, it's not like we can keep an eye on her all the damned time!"

"Actually," Ura interjected. "I need you all to do that."

"What?" Evryone shouted.

"Why?" Kokoa squeaked, deathly afraid that her obsession was going to admit to being the murderer.

"Because Omote and I are the only ones the murderer won't target." The albino replied.

"Yeah, cause you're not so evil that you'd kill your own sister." Kurumu sneered.

You've no idea… Ura thought. Out loud, she responded, "No. I wouldn't kill my own sister."

"Ha!" Kurumu shouted triumphantly. "I knew you were the killer."

"I didn't admit to anything." Ura shrugged.

"You just said-."

"-that I wouldn't kill my own sister!" Ura snarled. "You all never listen to exactly what I say, always jumping to find nonexistent hidden messages in my words. I have neither confirmed nor denied that I am the killer, now will you shut up and listen?"

Kurumu fell silent, glaring at the girl, but not wanting to anger her any more. Ura took a breath and turned to them all. "I want you all to live. Therefore, Omote and I will each take two people we care about and the last person can choose a side. I'm taking Aqua and Kokoa."

"I've got Tsukune and Mizore." Omote agreed, moving closer to the pair.

Everyone turned to Kurumu to see the succubus glancing between the two pairs. "Am I the only sane one anymore?" she wondered to no one in particular.

"You might be, if you'd just come on." Aqua told her.

"There's no way in hell I'm following you around, you psycho!" Kurumu shrieked, watching as Ura led Aqua and Kokoa out of the room.

"Then go with Omote." Ura called.

Kurumu once again found herself alone, noticing that Omote had already led Tsukune and Mizore down the hall. The succubus moved out into the hallway, finding that the others had all disappeared. Walking slowly through the corridor, the azulette found a small room and she walked inside, keeping her talons out just in case. Glancing around, Kurumu hurriedly turned to find that the door had shut on her. Quickly flicking the light switch, the succubus groaned when the light failed to come off, glancing up to find the bulb had been taken out.

A figure dropped from the ceiling and Kurumu instantly went on the offensive, slashing at the girl and trying to cut her in half. The figure bent backwards away from the nails and grinned, dropping to the floor and tripping Kurumu, the figure stood straight and smiled at the azulette.

"My eye hurts." The figure murmured, too low for Kurumu to get a good read on the voice. "Claws really hurt, you know. Especially when they're slashed at someone's face. That's the worst."

Understanding dawned on Kurumu. Slashed at someone's face… A flash of silver hair accompanied the opening of a pair of red eyes and the succubus gasped, petrified.

The figure chuckled, knowing that she had come to the conclusion the figure wanted her to. Moving closer, the girl stepped out into the moonlight, her silver hair glowing in the light. "Perfect, isn't it? My wound, I mean. You did wonderful with it. Perhaps I should leave you with a beauty mark as well?"

Still the voice was somehow still too soft for Kurumu to get a proper read on her voice, but that didn't matter now that she could see her. She was covered head to toe in blood, just as she had been all night. The gauze over her eye had been removed so that the wound could be clearly seen. The scarring was definitely ugly and Kurumu felt a sense of pride that she could screw up something as beautiful as… wait…

Looking closer, Kurumu noticed that the wounds were too far scarred. Ura's would still have been pretty raw… right? The girl chuckled. "Amazing what vampire healing can do, huh?"

Kurumu's mouth opened in a horrified scream, but no sound came out. The purple eyes widened as the succubus backed into the wall. "N-no!" she shrieked. "You… you can't be real! Kokoa and Aqua just went with-." The figure cut her off by clucking its tongue. Raising a bloody knife, the person before her gave a sharp-toothed grin.

"Please…" the blue-haired girl whimpered, shrinking against the wall.

The figure closed her red eyes and shook her head, coming closer as a gleeful smile nearly split her face.

"Bye-bye Busty."


I'm sorry to all you Kurumu fans, I truly am, but she had to be that stereotypical girl. She's purrfect for the part. Don't take this as me hating Kurumu, cause I love her. Make sure you review, I'm getting sleepy.
