"We'll lure him into the alley so the blimp can't send him ammo. Then we'll lure I'm into the drugstore. I'll sprint for it. Then you guys enter that alley and lure him in." "Got it." We all sat in some grass in front of the building we were in. "Arisu, you fill the store with aerosol fumes." "Right." Aguni stood up and ran away. We five followed him, leaving Arisu behind. He started shooting while we continued running. The King of Spades followed us into an alley. I was hiding behind a car. Kuina shot at him, but he shot back so she hid behind a wall. He walked further into the alley, Ann came from behind and shot into his shoulder. Kuina came again and kicked him with wood. She started fighting against him while Ann continued shooting. "Watch where you're shooting!" "Don't worry! I won't hit you!" Now it was mine and Heiya's turn. She shot an arrow at him while I started shooting with my gun. We ran away as soon he started shooting at us again. I ran further between the houses and climbed up to hide behind a sign. I reloaded my gun and saw the King of Spades coming near. It was silent a long time. No one moved. He turned around a corner where Aguni stood and both started shooting at each other. Kuina came out of a shop with a cart, but he ducked. Usagi climbed along the wall and let things fall. Aguni started fighting again with him, Kuina came and kicked him. Heiya ran to him, but needed to duck and shot an arrow t him, but missed. Ann came from behind and started shotting. The king of Spades continued shooting at the three girls, but suddenly his ammo was empty. Aguni flew into the wall and got unconsciousness. I jumped down from the sign and stabbed him into his shoulder. He threw me away and j landed on the ground. Usagi jumped on him, but got thrown away too and flew directly into Kuina. Heiya tried to fight again him, but only ended up on the ground. Ann shot at him and we all ran away to the side. I ran to him and grabbed his gun, punching into his face multiple times. He turned me around, but I turned around his arm, then he threw me away. Heiya fighted again with him, then she got shot. I packed out my gun and Ann too and we both started shooting at him. Ann got shot too, but I quickly dodged to the side and sat down next to Kuina. "Ann!" No, this couldn't be happening. I was still in shock and so was Kuina. I looked at Aguni, who didn't looked any different. He started screaming and ran to the King and fought against him. I tried calming Kuina down, who still didn't move. "It's okay. She's gonna be okay. Chishiya's gonna be ok. We're all gonna get out of here, alive." She started nodding, then another shot could be heard. Aguni got shot into the shoulder. Both were still fighting and Aguni was destroying his rounds. Kuina ran to them as Aguni was nearly dying and pushed him off Aguni. I ran out too and saw how Kuina sat on the King and punched him out of anger. I thought of Chishiya and felt how angry I got now too. Kuina got turned around and how he was on top of her. She got stabbed by him into the waist. That was my sign. I grabbed my knife and ran to him, pushing him off Kuina and stabbed him multiple times into his shoulder. He pushed me off and Usagi came and tried punching him. Kuina suddenly was standing again, but got stabbed into her belly. She started poking blood and I stood up again, but Usagi was faster and choked him from behind. Kuina got kicked away while Usagi was still on his back. She got stabbed too and fell off him. I ran towards him with my knive and tried stabbing him. He was already weak, but somehow he still managed to stab me into my side multiple times. I screamed and fell onto the ground, then it all happened so quickly. Aguni tried to shoot him, but he was faster and shot him instead. The king of Spades stood up and walked away. Arisu came and tried shooting him, but he ran away. He was shocked as he saw us all bleeding to dead there, that was sure. "Come on!"

So, Arisu and Aguni lit the bomb. I wasn't really sure how it happened, but they did it.

I sat there for some time. Usagi walked away and met with Arisu. They went to play the last game. I wasn't really hurt, but the others were. I slowly stood up and walked out of the alley. "Where.. are you going?" I heard Kuina's voice. I smiled at her while holding onto my wound with my hand. "Chishiya." She smiled slightly. "He's hurt isn't he?" I nodded, tears building up in my eyes. "Tell him I love him. as a friend of course." Kuina winked at me, making me smile more. "I will. I promise." With that, I stumbled away, making my way back to Shibuya Crossing. It was already dark, so it was hard for me to find him. "Chishiya?" It was only a whisper. After some time, I gave up and sat down by a car, quietly crying to myself. "Hey Peach." I turned my head to see the love of my life leaning against the car. "Oh my god." I started to cry, what I actually already did. I laid my head on his shoulder and took his hand. "I'm so happy to see you alive." He kissed my head and stroked through my hair. "I heard how you fought, didn't sound really good. And your.. scream. I was scared." I nodded slightly. "Everyone either got stabbed or shot. Arisu is the only one that didn't got hurt. Kuina told me i should tell you that she loves you as a friend." I sighed. "I was so scared, you know? When you took the bullet for Usagi, I think my heart stopped beating." He moved his head to the side and kissed me. Our lips moving in since, his hand on my cheek and the smiles on our faces. It felt like our last one. Fireworks exploded in the sky. "They won." My smile grew all over my face. "No, we won." I turned to Chishiya and laid my head on his shoulder again, watching the fireworks.

A voice started talking. "Now, all the surviving players will be given a choice. Please select whether you will accept permanent residence in this land or if you will not accept it. I repeat, please select whether you will accept permanent residence in this land or if you will not accept it." My eyes widened. "We can go back?" I looked at Chishiya who was looking at me with something sparkling in his eyes, but now I know what it was. Love.

"I don't accept.", i said. "I.. don't want it, I think. What will you do?" The question was for Niragi, who laid a pair of meters by another car. "I don't want it." Somewhere in his soul, there's a very good and nice person. I took Chishiya's hand and placed a kiss on it. "I love you, Chishiya." He smiled at me. "Me too, Peach."
