Chapter 31: the dark truth

"What?" - Asked Naegi shocked... Mukuro had just asked him to kill her... and he couldn't believe it - "What do you mean Mukuro?" - he asked worried about her.. yet she didn't answer worrying her, he tried to look at her but she diverted her face - "Mukuro please talk to me' - he asked gently while touching her face... he wanted to see her face... and she finally gave in... Naegi was surprised at what he saw... Mukuro was crying - "Naegi-kun... I'm sorry" - she finally said before crying more - "It's all my fault" - Naegi looked at her with his face full of compassion

"Naegi-kun... I must tell you the truth" - she said while Naegi listened - "Ever since I was young I was always attracted to the military... I always found it amazing... The way they fought, the way they were able to help and beat their foes the rush of beating their enemies." - she said smiling a little - "I even ran when I was a little girl, to join Fenrir... those years I was training and working with them were probably the best days of my life... I even got the title of ultimate High school soldier, because of it" - she then turned sad - "But even then I would always spend nights thinking about Junko"- Naegi looked at her surprised... - "I always felt that I had abandoned her... like I was betraying her by leaving... that I was selfish" - Naegi was really surprised, how could somebody who care some much over her sister... always receive the boot from her - "So one day I left the Fenrir group... and decided to return to her... to be with my little sister" - she then got sad - "but when I got back... Junko... had changed" - Naegi knew what she was talking about... Junko had become a despair addict. That's why Naegi was angry - "She became addicted to hurting other... she got pleasure from it... and she asked me to do the same" - she said remembering - "At first I wanted to not do it... but I felt like I was betraying her again... and I couldn't do that... It was over time when I faked myself that I was getting pleasure as well" - she said her voice cracking a little - "So I followed every order of her... I killed everyone that she told me... I filled my hands with blood thinking I was doing all that for my sister, yet for her and everyone else... I was just another soldier" - she was starting to shake

"yet it all changed when I got into Hope's Peak Academy" - she said surprising him - "Hope's Peak was supposed to be only the beginning of our Despair world collapse... but on the first day... something made me doubt all of our plans" - She then looked at him - "it was you" - she said making his eyes wide - "When you looked at me, you didn't see a soldier, you didn't see a murderer... you saw me as a normal girl. when you smiled at me for the first time I felt like I was a normal girl...It felt weird... but nice" - she said blushing a little before she became sad - "But Junko still wanted to bring despair to everyone... It was difficult... but I decided to stop following her... I betrayed her again" - she said feeling hurt - "maybe... it was because of that, that she tried to kill me" - she felt a pain in her chest... but gathered the determination to look at Naegi directly at his eyes - "Please Naegi-kun ... Kill me" - she asked again, Naegi now seeing her seriously - "After I got my memories back... I have been suffering, All this time I was faking a life of a normal girl... yet after I got my memories... I found out I am nothing more than a murderer... I have been lying to all of you" - she said tears falling from her face

"I already knew all of this" -Naegi said shocking Mukuro who looked at him confused - "I already knew everything... how you killed a lot of innocent people. How Junko was trying to bring despair everything... But decided not to do anything because of your memory loss" - He confessed shocking the girl.. before she smiled sadly - "so ... know that my memory is back... you are going to kill me... I'm not surprised, You are the Jester, your job is to kill bad people... but if I can ask a selfish wish...please forgive Junko" - she then stared at Naegi, eyes with determination - "do it" - Naegi then pulled a Knife from his sleeve and stared coldly, Komaru smiled and closed her eyes
