Chapter 13 - -29/4/17

**SAYURI SCHREIBER **

It's time for breakfast! Geez! I'm starving!All the students usually go to the cafeteria to eat, but some like to cook their own food in the kitchen. Yusari usually does that, so I don't really hangout with her during breakfast. In fact, I'm pretty lonely in mornings. Mitsuru's asleep and he doesn't eat breakfast and Maehara... he barely goes to the cafeteria. I never see him either..So I guess, it's just me...all by myself...all alone...Great!

The Bell rings. Both class 3-A and 3-C are all in one classroom, causing havoc."Man! I'm so hungry! When are we gonna eat?!" A boy wearing headphones exclaims as he stretches out. "I know right!"

"Me too!" The boys around him moan around in agreement.

"We have one more period left till lunch break! So, we have an hour and a half left!" Some random dude with glasses popped outta nowhere, yells. The other guys look at him like, What the hell?..

"Yeah.. Thanks alot. Time schedule..." The guy in glasses simply turns his back and walks away at this remark.

"Alright, class 3-A! And 3-C! Change into your P.E uniform! And start jogging around the whole campus!" Mr Takahashi declared as he entered and left the classroom.

"Wait." Mitsuru became alert. "What?" Maehara gasps.

"The whole campus!!" They both yelled together at the same time...I wouldn't blame them...It's freakin huge...

**SAYURI SCHREIBER **

Class 3-A are all standing at the starting line, at the back entrance of the school by the doors that lead to the school yard. We are all set and ready, for a race. And, I for one, am ready to win this thing!

"Ready! Set! GO!!" Everyone starts running whether they wanted to or not. The plan is, once our class, 3-A, reaches the mid-way point then class 3-C will start running. As I slowly jogged ahead, I noticed something strange and I looked back, it was like I was forgetting something...Then I stopped to see...

"You're supposed to run!" Mr Takahashi was having a go at Mitsuru.

"I don't know how to run." Mitsuru is still at the starting line, and he hasn't moved a muscle. I slowly jogged myself backwards.

"What the hell is wrong with you? Just look at you! It looks like you haven't ran a single mile in your life!"

"That's exactly what it looks like..." Mitsuru says bluntly.

"That's exactly why you would be running!"

"I don't want to." He remained expressionless as the teacher yells at him, and drains all of his emotional anger at him.

"Why?.." I rose up behind him with an intimidating voice, yet I was still smiling. Mitsuru fell silent, and I brake into an sigh.

**HASHIBA MAEHARA **

"Oh...I guess you're here..." I panted hard. I just ran halfway! Mitsuru are Yusari are here...And I dare mention...Mitsuru looks dead! "That's it?" Class 3-A have already finished their part of the run but I can't even make it halfway! I'm surprised that Mitsuru was able to do that!

"You're not gonna finish?..." Yusari looks down at me in disappointment.

"What?...No way! I barely made- " Before I could finish my sentence, I felt dizzy and I was losing balance. I wobbled but stayed on my feet.

"What's wrong with you?" Yusari asks as if she doesn't care that I'll lose consciousness right there and then.

"Do you have water?" I put my hand on my knees to stop myself from falling.

"Yeah, but I'm not giving it to you" I wasn't able to look at her face, but she obviously sounds like a bitch right now. " Why the hell do you have to be so harsh?!" I yelled at her but because I looked up at her so quickly, I lost my balance and fell. I felt like I was about to fade away, but I couldn't get myself up, I couldn't move to keep myself awake.

"What's wrong with him?" I heard Mitsuru's voice coming from above.

"Exhaustion" I finally was able to lift myself and rested on my elbow. "Here." Yusari shoves her water bottle right in my face. "Take it!" I quickly take it without saying a word, and I gulp it all down. But then after drinking it, I realised...She drank from this same bottle! My hormones are going crazy!

"Hey! What are you guys doing here?!" Sayuri ran all the way here! She's dripping with sweat! Is she really ok with that?! I can't even survive like that!

"These guys gave up right here. They barely ran...Now, they're dying" Yusari answers.

"You don't know what its like! This is freakin painful!" Coming from a guy who hasn't ran a single mile in his life!

"Yeah! Well, if you had to run for life and you suck at running! Then kiss your ass goodbye!"

"Hey! This is a completely different situation!" I said after recovering from my dizziness. If we needed to run for our lives then we would, but being forced to run...That's just hell!

"If that does happen, then I'll be fine! I've done it before. But now, there's no reason to Run! I wouldn't even run away from the devil, because I AM the devil!...So yeah, I can kiss my ass goodbye and kick your ass at the f**king time!" BOOM! Wow! As expected from Mitsuru! But by the look on Yusari's face, these two are not going to get along..at all!

"Yeah, that's great...But I still can't believe you guys gave up half way! Is there something-" "What?!" Mitsuru screams out, interrupting Sayuri.

"Yes, I think there is something wrong with you..." She clarifies quietly.

"I thought the whole time I only ran 5 miles! But I ran MORE than that! NOOoo!"

"I can't believe it.." I say in between me and Yusari while Mitsuru and Sayuri are dealing with themselves mentally.

"I can't believe it either.." Yusari agrees.

"I guess the more learn about Mitsuru the more we realise how crazy he is.." Sayuri whispers to us, abandoning Mitsuru behind her back.

"What did you say?!" The devil hears all!

"Oh! N-nothing!"

"Well, that's ironic.." A sudden thought passes through my brain.

"What is?.." Yusari asks.

"Well, the fact that me and Mitsuru suck at sports but you two are pretty fine with it" I explain further while pointing at the strong, athletic girls before me.

"Yeah, it should be the other way round" Sayuri points out.

"Not only that, but you guys look malnourished as hell!" That was quiet shocking for both of us! I didn't expect Yusari to say that out loud!

"Don't know what you're talking about!" Mitsuru stands up and his arms crossed on his chest.

"Don't deny it!"

"I eat ramen everyday!" Is it me or does that sound like he's saying something completely different like:

"I eat people everyday!" Or do I find everything he says to be scary as shit?!

"Alright! Class 3-A vs Class 3-C boys! Ready! " Mr Takahashi yells, preparing to blow the whistle as everyone is entering the gym hall. "No" Mitsuru says bluntly. "GO!" "I can't do this!" And Maehara is standing beside him.

"I don't know how to play"

"OW! My leg hurts! Can I sit this one out?" Maehara bends to his ankle, faking an injury.

"Why am I here?"

"What are you two doing?!" The P.E teacher has arrived.

**KAZUMI TODOROKI*

The name's Kazumi! I'm am member of class 3-A..and I'm also a member of the basketball team. Right now, we are all in the gym playing basketball. I gotta say our class is pretty good at this sport and we all work together in a team. That is...Until I hit Mitsuru right in the head! I did say " Heads up!"

"Get your head in the game, Fukuyama!" Mr Takahashi yells out at Mitsuru dead body.

"Where am I?..." This guy looks really dizzy, I run over to him to make sure he was ok and this was his response,

"Does it look like I'm ok?" He's clearly angry. "I'm so sorry man! " I help Mitsuru up and bring him over to the sidelines.

"Kazumi!♡ I love you Kazu!♡" The girls cheer me on, their support helps me to achieve my best!..oh, Did I mention?

I'm really popular with the ladies!

"I'll do my best!" I wave at them from above, they all scream in excitement from the top stands of the gym.

"OMG!♡He's so nice!"

"I love it when he tries his best!♡"

**SAYURI SCHREIBER **

"I can see why everyone loves him so much." Yusari says as she inspects the scene below her. We were standing on the top sidelines of the gym, so we were able to observe the gym from above.

"Yeah.. I mean he's got good looks, he's good in studies AND sports, he's so popular...There's no wonder he's got so much attention."

"Why is that such a big deal?" Me and Yusari over to our right, to see a girl, wearing a tacky hoodie, and she's holding a digital camera. She had purple hair, and streaks of her bangs were covering her left eye. She was wearing a baggy hat, which was worn from the crown of her head.

"Huh?..Who are you?..."

"I'm Mei..."

**MEI**

"I'm Mei..." I say as I zoom in and out through my camera lens. "I'm from class 3-C ..." That was all I wanted to say for my introduction, however...The blonde girl spoke up. "Oh, I know you! You're that girl that captured that photo of the butterfly for the school album..." She seemed kinda confused, thinking that was it the butterfly?..But I guess I'm surprised.

"Really that was you?.." The girl next to blondie said.

"Yeah...Unfortunately, I shot all those pictures in the album.." They looked at me confused, awaiting for an answer.

"Some of tye girls blackmailed me to offer them my pics so that THEY can take advantage of them and claim it. So I gave it..." It was a complicated story... Why did they want my pictures so badly?..Is it really that hard to take a picture yourself?...But still...I don't like confrontation, so I let them have it...

"Why?"

"Because I didn't want to deal with them the hard way..." I don't know why I'm telling them all of this...I don't want their advice. "You shouldn't have done that! Yore the one with the talent!" The girl next to me screamed, she's loud..it made my ears ring.

"No I don't. It's just snappin' pictures. Anyone can do it...I don't have talent..."

"You DO! You just need to believe in yourself a little more!"

"That's right..You shouldn't let anyone take that away from you..." I don't even know these girls, yet they have so much faith in me. I love taking pictures... It's been a hobby of mine ever since I was 9. My mother gave me this camera, and I still have it, in my hands, till this day. I smiled, "Thank you... I won't give up..." They smiled back with friendly faces, and a gentleness in their eyes. But then I slowly came to the realisation.. "Wait..What are your names?"

"I'm Yusari!"

"And I'm Sayuri! Nice to meet you!"

"Nice to meet you too..." I felt at ease while talking to these two, there was strong connection between us...

"Wow! Check it! Maehara is getting his ass kicked!" Yusari exclaimed as she leaned on the railing.

**HASHIBA MAEHARA **

What the hell?! Why are YOU sitting out?! That's not fair! Damn you Mitsuru! "Heh.." Don't give me that crap! You bastard! How dare you smile while I'm suffering!

"Can somebody please...hit me till I pass out..."

"CLASS 3-A! WINS!" Finally! The whistle blows and now it's over! "Hey! Maehara!" What NOW?! Let me enjoy the taste of freedom! Bastard!

"Listen! What were doing during that game?!" It's that jerk, that the girls were all screaming about... Because of you..my ears are starting to bleed!...

"Nothing..." I replied bluntly, it's not like I know this guy...

"That's the problem! You didn't do anything! We lost!" It's just a damn game...

"Yeah, so what? What do you want me to do about it?..."

"I'm glad you asked..."....he folded his arms and smiled...Wait. ..what kind of shit did I get into?...

After that round, it was the girls turn to play, so us boys went up to the stands and wacthed....And DAMN they're good!

"They're better than you" Mitsuru randomly spout.

"Shut UP! What are you doing here anyway?!" I'm furious at him, his existence pissess me off! He's a betrayer!

"What the hell is SHE doing here?"

"Huh?" I turn around, but no one was there...then I slowly looked down and saw a girl sitting on the floor, on my right, I didn't notice at first, but it looks like she's hiding from someone.

"I do not exist..." What the?! Is she trying to make us deny that she was ever here in the first place?!

"Hey! Arn't you supposed to be down there?!" She looks up with a disgusted look in her eyes. She silently stared until,"Do you want me to lower?..."

"Huh?..." I didn't understand what she meant at first but...The way she's looking at me... made me feel uncomfortable.

"Pfft!" Mitsuru let out a small chuckle, he was holding his laughter in. I was confused,..what did she mean by...

"Ah!~ You perv!" I screamed and ran behind Mitsuru.

"You're so dense!" Mitsuru finally laughed out.

"Now let go of me..." His threat startled me.

"I don't do sports..." She says as she stands up. "I don't do sports either! But I still had to do it anyway!"

"Then you're just an idiot..."

"What?!"

"I got to say! This guy's a genius!" Why is she pointing at Mitsuru and not at me?! Mitsuru wasn't even following along with the conversation!

"That's right...I'm a genius..."

"Shut your ego up!" I swear...Mitsuru if your ego goes any higher...then I would kill myself...By climbing up your ego and falling down to your I.Q...

"He didn't want to play, did he?...But he still got away with it..You got hit in the head! And stepped out like a boss!" This girl is praising him way too much.

"Huh?! But that was just an accident! How was it HIS doing?!"

"Yeah, it was...I was acting stupid on purpose, so that I could fall down and not play..."

"That's what I call genius!"

"What?! How is that clever?!" They fist bumped each OTHER! WITH MITSURU! Since does Mitsuru get along with anyone! They're acting like BEST FRIENDS all of a sudden! They're the most. .. lamest people on earth...

"Sometimes to get through in life...you need to be stupid to get through the most painful obstacles..." That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard! But don't worry, Mitsuru... Today, after school, I'll make you go through the most painful obstacle in your life...!...You'll have to be more than stupid to survive!

**MITSURU FUKUYAMA **

Today is one of the worst days of my life...I should have just stayed in bed but NO! Because of that damn teach!

"It's really important that you come to class or else you'll fall behind!" The only falling behind I've done so far, is fricken basket ball! Why would anybody invent such a thing?!...Well, now that the day is finally over...I can relax...Nobody can stop me!

"There you are Mitsuru!" I stand corrected.

"What the hell do you want?..I'm in a hurry...." I try to skid pass him but the thing is...Maehara...I can only describe him as water... You can't get passed him...and if you dare to try...He'll drown you...

"Wait!" He blocks my way and says, "You're not in a hurry!..." What is he scheming?...

"Come with me...I need to show you something..."
