The killing game was over. It was finally over.
Out of the sixteen students, only three remained. Maki Harukawa, Himiko Yumeno and Shuichi Saihara.
All Shuichi wants is a second chance to save everyone who died. To do things differently, to do thi...
Every step he took didn't add any more guilt or sorrow to the liar. If anything, he didn't want to admit it, yet walking to the bathroom where Korekiyo's body was stringed up, seemed like a chore and just something that was boring and tedious.
What should he do when he saw the body? Should he act surprised, flail his arms around and freak out..? Should he just pretend to be completely emotionless and simply completely unaffected by the whole ordeal?
If anything, he should just try and react as similar to the previous announcements as possible.. to avoid any suspicion. Look at the body, act confident, blurt out a few easy to see through lies and move on out of the room to go mess with, otherwise known as interrogate the other students. He really needed to this get out of the way, to get it all done and dusted, so he could get back to the more important things..
Wait no, oh god no. Why did his mind go there? More important things? Sure Korekiyo and him hadn't spoken much at all.. but he was as much a part of the students as everyone else.. so solving his murder was an important thing. He could and had to take the role of keeping everyone alive, just like his beloved Shuichi had tried to do before the mastermind attempted to get rid of him because he was too close to succeeding. That mastermind was going to pay, and they were going to pay with their life.. but he had to plan that out and not act out of stupidity or pure loathing. This mastermind was undoubtedly clever, but they also seemed to be invisible, absorbing into the shadows like an illness.
That was the most dangerous thing of all.
The cleverness that the mastermind held. It was like they had everyone in the palm of their hand, manipulating them with skill and ease. That fact on its own was absolutely spine chillingly terrifying.

KitKat12OFFICIAL is the person who drew this for me! I'm really appreciative that they did this! It's gorgeous and truly does work. Thank you for saving everyone's eyes from my terrible Tenko T-pose! Go follow them!
As they approached the bathroom, Tenko could be seen guarding the door strongly, her arms open wide like a bolocade to stop anyone from entering. Maki stormed up to her, and reached forwards to open the door, only to be apprehended by the Ultimate Akido Master herself. "I'm not going to let any one of the females enter the bathroom of the degenerate males! It isn't safe in there for them.. the m-males could be plotting something to take advantage!"
"Move out of my way Tenko." Maki growled lowly, gritting her teeth as she was fed up with all the childish behaviour from the girl, she positioned herself reached to grasp her knife again, but Kokichi quickly scooted up to her before she could do anything and smoothly slip past Tenko, holding open the door for Maki who slyly and athletically followed him in.
When she noticed the body, Kokichi noticed that her face only animated for a few seconds, before it returned to one of a deadpan expression.
Tenko chased in afterwards, standing at the centre of the room, "If any degenerate male attempts something, I will not hesitate to apprehend them!" Her glances were obviously aimed at the males in the room; Kaito, Kokichi and Ryoma.
