*RINNNGGGGG* *RINNNGGGGG*

"Finally school's over." Nagisa sighed while turning to the red headed boy beside him. "It's so boring and well...normal without koro-sensei here."

"Well you're the one who killed him." Karma replied in a snarky tone. "I'm only kidding it's fine but even so you are right, it's like he had such a big impact on our whole class that without him it feels like school isn't even school anymore. I mean instead of lessons on assassination we actually have normal lessons to help us with our careers, really we should be happy but eh whatever."

"Yeah, fair point." Nagisa shrugged. "Well I better start heading home now, I'm going to my dads and it's a bit far."

Nagisa began making his way to his dad's house, he only stayed there one week every 2 months so he was trying to get over there as quickly as he could. 

He was just one road away when he saw police cars patrolling the roads nearby. He was slightly worried but then again it could be for anything he thought. No point overthinking he already does enough of that.

But then he turned the corner only to see police leaving and entering his father's house. He rushed over frantically just to see 4 police men carrying something covered in a white sheet ever so slightly stained specks of red.

"No it couldn't be", he thought to himself. "Please don't let this be happening."

"Young lady, do you have business here?" A tall policeman said to him in a firm tone.

"Uhhh.. well.. uh.." the poor boy stuttered.

"Go on speak up." He said to Nagisa, his tone getting even stronger.

"Well this is my father's house, has something happened by any chance?" Nagisa said, already having a strong guess at the answer.

"Oh...um I see." The policeman hesitated. Well there has been an incident so if you have any other relatives/guardians please let us drive you there and we can all sit down together and discuss this."

"Yeah, well I guess I have my mum?" Nagisa said in an unsure tone.

Two policemen drove Nagisa to his mother's house with him in the back of the car. When they arrived they told Nagisa to knock on the door.

*Knock* Knock*

Around 12 seconds later an average sized lady with hair as blue as Nagisa's flung the door open. Causing it to swing vigorously.

"Oh Nagisa my baby girl, you're sick of your father already. Well I suppose it can't be helped. Come in, come in." Nagisa's mum said in a sickeningly sweet tone.

The two officers then stepped forward, making themselves known for the first time, Mrs Shiota jumped, startled at the sight of the two police. They told Nagisa's mum Hiromi there had been an incident and asked to come inside. She agreed and they sat down with Nagisa in the room and went over what happened. They explained that when they arrived they found his body but all his organs had been harvested so whoever did this must be a complete sicko.

Hiromi gulped, "oh I see, so do we not know who did this despicable thing?" She spoke in her still too sweet tone.

Nagisa could instantly see his mother was being way too nice to be true. Sure she always had this tone when she would talk about how she wanted a girl and go into all her o' so woeful stories. But she never spoke like this to a stranger. And she knew she didn't like his dad but to be appearing "happy" was well just a bit much, at least that's what he thought.

"No ma'am we do not know who committed the crime, in fact there aren't even enough traces to show that a human did it. It's quite remarkable but terrifying at the same time. For now just try to stay alert because we don't know why they targeted Nagisa's father but they may have business with the whole family. Not to worry you of course. But we wish to avoid as many casualties as possible." The police man explained. "Oh and by the way my name is Soichiro... Soichiro Yagami. Just in case you ever need to contact me."

They all exchanged a few final words along with any questions before saying their goodbyes. As soon as Hiromi closed the door she walked right past Nagisa, who was still sitting at the dining table lost in his thoughts. He made his way up to his room later and got into bed as usual. Still feeling uneasy about something though he didn't know what yet.
