     *This is where the plot-twist comes next!*


     Lucky Guy's P.O.V: "?"


     After going through each and every one of the survivors and the hunter's memories, I've finally convinced them to agree on my side... 

     . . . 

     And once I opened my eyes back up again, I was relieved to find everybody was settled down... That means...

 
     My plan had worked!



     "Well," Mukuro broke the silence as she glanced down at us. "It appears you guys have decided, didn't you?"

     "I sure did," Jose replied. "I'm going to face my own desires with Lucky Guy."

     "Me too!" Demi raised her hands. 

     "Of course I will," Robbie jumped up and down from behind his stand. "What will we do without Lucky Guy when he's totally awesome?"

     . . . 

     Yeah... Right... Awesome... 

     Why does that word really pack a punch when he complimented me like that? It's not like I did anything special just to wake them up... Y-yeah, that's right... All of them would think that they are going to get what they desire the most when it's basically the opposite... Mukuro had stated it before... They are going to pay for their desires, while I... I got to find  a way out of being non-existent... 

     I can't stand the thought of thinking like this! I want to be with my friends so badly that even I couldn't make the right decisions here! I... I feel so messed up in some sort of way... Was it really the right thing to do? Become... Selfish? 


     . . . 


     "So I see," the mastermind frowned, and I could tell she knew what I was up to. "Then I guess there's nothing to worry about voting, is that right?" Her eyes darted over to the Monokuma clock on the wall. "After all, it appears the time is officially over."

     Thank goodness I wasn't too late... Or else we would've lost the game, because we couldn't exactly vote on the same choice if the timer runs out...


     "Yeah..." I almost hesitated. "We're ready."

     "Then what are you waiting for?" Mukuro's eyes sharpened at me. "Cast your votes and be done with it," and with that, the lever in front of us appeared, and we were able to cast our final votes...

  
     . . . 

     The slot machine pulled up and I held my breath as I hoped everyone had voted for the right choice here... Even one slightly different choice will make a huge impact on our future as one...

     . . . 

     

     Once the slot machine had finally come to its stopping point, I was very relieved to find out that everybody had voted for 'Door of your Desires.' 


     Turning back to face us after glancing at the slot machine, Mukuro tilted her head at us. "I'm glad you all have decided altogether," then she placed her hands out to me as if she wanted something from me, "The gadget, if you don't mind."

     Hesitantly, I sighed as I tossed the Hope Gadget to her, and she caught it in her hands. 

     "Junko's going to be so proud of me," Mukuro said to us out loud with a small smile on her face. "I've finally done it."

     "Proud of you for what?" Freddy frowned. 

      I glanced up at her. "What makes you sound so sure you've won? Nobody had died from this trial."

     "Well," Mukuro paused awkwardly, and I was beginning to think she was now forgetting about that part until-- 



     . . . 

     . . . . 

     . . . . . 

     . . . . . . 




      She had not seen this coming... 





     And neither did we when....





     Out of nowhere, numerous spears came all around her, and stabbed Mukuro to death... 


     "W-what...?" Mukuro stammered, and there was no doubt about it... She was as surprised as we are when her eyes widened... "T-this wasn't s-s-supposed to... to h-happen..." And after saying those last words, the Ultimate soldier had finally collapsed onto the ground, covered in blood. 

     The Hope Gadget from her hands had fallen with a slight thud as it bounced over back to me, and I didn't waste any time to pick it up with my hands. Thankfully, the gadget wasn't damaged...


     But the sight of Mukuro's dead body, had driven everyone in confusion and even fear... 


     Like....


     "What the heck?!" Tracy screamed. "She's dead!"

     "Of course she is!" Vera gasped with her mouth opened. 

     "W-what just happened to her?!" Emily shrieked. 

     "More importantly," Freddy crossed his arms. "Where did the spears come from?"

     "O-over there!" Violetta pointed at the ceiling, and I knew it immediately when I saw it...
