Kazuha gently opened the door.

3rd Person POV

"Ayaka?" Kazuha yelled. He continued to walk further into the Kamisato Estate, expecting to see Ayaka passed out, sleeping, on the floor. "Ayaka wake up, you promised to meet me somewhere!" He walked further in. "Aya-" but what he saw made him sick to his stomach. He felt like he was going to throw up. "...ka?" Was all the helpless boy could mutter.

Ayaka was indeed in the room, but she was hanging from the ceiling, her bangs falling above her eyes, her body pale and limp and moving side to side in the small breeze. "Ayaka no!" Kazuha screamed, running towards the hung girl. He tried to untie the noose, but it wasn't working. "You can't leave me as well, please!" Kazuha yelled, his voice breaking. He was heartbroken. More than that. Even if Ayaka and him weren't that close, they were still acquaintances and got along quite well. "Please come back!" He yelled. He cut the rope, watching as Ayaka's limp body fell to the ground, making a loud thump sound.

He went to feel the girls pulse. But he shivered as she was cold to the touch. And quite to his dismay, no sound. No movement. Her heart was dead. She was dead, and he didn't want to accept that. But, he accepted the tragic conclusion that Ayaka was infact dead. She had committed suicide. He didn't want to believe this.

"Why? I know that your brother is dead but why? You still had a whole life ahead of you why did you end it now?" Kazuha sobbed. He had already lost one friend in the past. And now, he has lost two. But Kazuha had a thought come to mind. "Did the Shogun make you do this?" He said plainly, staring at the girl whom laid on the floor, completely lifeless. Kazuha probably looked insane as he was talking to a corpse. He laughed bitterly. "If she did, I'll get revenge for you. I'm sure Ei was behind the other deaths too. Or, 'missing cases'. But it's clear Yoimiya is dead, Thomas blood was found but no trace of a body, which sounds like something the Shogun would do. And your brother. I saw him on his way up to Tenshukaku. And just like that, he disappeared. It's quite suspicious if you ask me,"

He looked down at Ayaka again. Noticing the red and purple mark that was left by the noose. Along with some scratch marks that were there, perhaps from last minute regret. Or her bodies instinct to keep itself alive. "Oh, Ayaka," he frowned, hugging her corpse. Perhaps it was considered weird to stare at and hug a corpse (it probably is), but Kazuha didn't care. He felt insane, and not in a good way. He knew he would miss Ayaka dearly. And he wanted revenge for her. He needed revenge for her. It wasn't a want, it was a requirement.

Ei and Y/N on the other hand, were having a blast with each other. Laughing and smiling at each other. "Ei, should we head back now?" You asked. "Hm. I guess we could, yes," Ei replied. Ei has never felt happier. She has you all to herself. This excited her. She didn't even have to force you against your own will. Ei smiled.

Ei's POV

Well, I've sure come a long way with my precious Y/N. She seems to enjoy my company now. Which is absolutely exciting! Y/N kept smiling at me, which was completely amazing and made me feel absolutely great! I locked hands with my beloved and we walked back to Tenshukaku.

Though, of course, the memory of that bitch Ayaka came into my mind and ruined the mood. "Ei? You seem upset, what's wrong?" Y/N asked. "Hm? Oh, it's nothing Y/N. I promise," I responded. I didn't want to let Y/N know that I, hopefully, made a person commit suicide. I hope Ayaka's dead right now. I can't have her getting in the way.
