Return, Retry, Restart...Continue? (Danganronpa V3 X Reader)

Chapter 10

Anger came from each of the ultimates. Anger and despair. As Monokuma laughed and bid the rest of us farewell, telling us that we were free to do as we pleased.

"What are we going to do? Nighttime in two days will be here in an instant." Tsumugi said out loud.

"Th-there's gotta be something we can do! The world needs my genius!" Miu shouted in desperation.

"I don't wanna die...." Himiko muttered.

"You have no need to worry! Atua will accept you with open arms!" Angie replied nonchalantly.

"That's after we're dead."

"W-we can't panic from something like this! I'll do something about it." Kaito said confidently.

"...Did you have a course of action in mind?" Keebo asked.

"I-I'm thinking of one right now!" Kaito replied.

"Figures, I didn't expect anything from you in the first place." Maki said harshly.

"We've no time to be indecisive. We are being urged to make a decision." Korekiyo said. "To die fighting... or to die from the time limit."

"Why do both options include us dying?" Tsumugi shouted.

"N-no way! I don't wanna die!" Kokichi started, "I'm going to survive! No matter what!"

"No! You can't do that! Even if you make a mistake you can'-" Kaede started pleading with Kokichi.

"Then will you accept the blame?" Kokichi suddenly said.

"Wha-?"

"Will you accept the blame if I die? I have people that will be sad if I die, y'know."

"Um well..." Kaede hesiatated.

"Nee-heehee...I'm lying no one will be sad if I die." Kokichi met your eyes as he said that. "I dunno if the same can be said for everyone though. I'm gonna take off now!" With that Kokichi left.

One by one everyone had some reason to leave, and so they did, soon enough you were the only one. Even Kaito and Kirumi left.

I need a plan... I know if I let things continue like this Rantaro will be killed. I don't want that to happen. I need to end the killing game. Not only for my sake, but for the sake's of my new-found friends too... Tsumugi is the mastermind. I just need to kill Tsumugi. That's it... A simple knife should do the trick.

You went to the kitchen, and looking through the drawers you found a sharp knife. As you looked at it, your hands started to tremble. You began to doubt yourself. Can...I really do this? You shook your head, attempting to clear away all the thoughts from your head. I have to. I have to do this. 

So you step outside the kitchen, tucking the knife into your waistband, and then covering it with your long coat. You walked by the library, and heard Shuichi and Kaede setting up thing in there. Don't worry you guys, I got this. 

You finally saw Tsumugi, she was in the courtyard, "Hey Tsumugi, so you really like anime right? I've only watched a few-maybe you could recommend me some?" You ask nicely, trying to lure the girl into a false sense of security. 

"Oh sure!" She began to tell you about all her favorites, you weren't really paying attention, you just occasionally chimed in. Apparently the animes from your world weren't different from the in this world so you also causally talked about the few animes you had seen. As you guys talked you also started heading towards the game room, where no one should be at the moment. 

"Oh! When did we arrive at the game room? How unexpected, I must've been too caught up in talking about my hobbies!" Tsumugi exclaimed. 

"Haha, well at least there are chairs here, my feet hurt, come on lets sit." You said.

Right as Tsumugi turned her back towards you, you lunged at her, knife in hand. You were ready. You had spent the whole time you guys were talking mentally preparing yourself.

What you were not ready for-was her reflexes. Tsumugi immediately turned around and hit your wrist so that you just barely missed. As your arm went past her head-still laced with the momentum of your lunge, Tsumugi grabbed your arm and kicked out your legs-causing you to fall on to the ground. With that, your grip on the knife loosened, and she easily took it away from you. 

"Well-I wasn't expecting this, but I'll have to kill you now huh?" Tsumugi said with a sickening smile full of evil on her face. And before you could even respond Tsumugi took the knife and plunged it into your stomach. 

You screamed loudly. You stomach felt like it was on fire- but it also felt like it had been punched all at the same time. As you screamed, Tsumugi then ripped the knife back out from your stomach, causing another burst of pain to course through your body. 

You put your hand to your stomach, attempting to stop the bleeding. You began to gasp for air and your vision started to blur. You managed to lift your hand to you face. You saw that it was coated in red. 

Red... It's red. 

And with that thought, you started coughing up blood too. It was being splattered everywhere. 

"Rest in peace!" Tsumugi said. 

And with that, you lost consciousness. 

Well. 

Yeah. 

I tried writing something somewhat gory- I have no idea if it worked but yeah. 

Anyway! Till the Next Chapter!
