Hours had past after Yukina fell asleep.
Yuji, who was sitting in a corner beside Yukina, looking directly at the door above them, stood up to do some stretches.
"Agh," Yuji uttered, as he stretched his body from legs to head.
"How long has it been..." Yuji thought, "I wish I could've borrowed that clock from her...".
Yuji took a glance at Yukina, "I... probably shouldn't..." he thought as he looks away from her defenseless state.
"I already practiced my image training in my head multiple times, enough to make me feel super prepared for tomorrow..." Yuji thought as he stops stretching, and once again sat down.
"Now that I think about it... could it be morning already?" Yuji thought.
He stood back up and walked over the stairs.
He placed his hand on the handle of the door leading above him, as he prepares himself.
"I should probably wait for..."
Rustle* Rustle*
Suddenly a faint sound coming from the outside of the door could be heard from a distance.
"What... was that..." Yuji thought, "Could it be..."
A memory flashes over Yuji's eyes, as he remembers the scene when he was with Elizabeth, making her final request.
"That's... right," Yuji thought, "I... still haven't granted my promise...".
Yuji glanced at Yukina then slowly opened the door.
As Yuji opens the door, a flash of faint light could be seen from the edge.
"Light?" Yuji fully opens the door and went outside of the basement.
"It's... morning..." Yuji said as he looked around and saw multiple faint lights, coming from the closed windows.
Rustle* Rustle*
"That sound...".
Yuji closed the door leading to the basement, then went straight to the source of the sound.
As Yuji walked over to the source of the sound, he finds himself stopping at the closet where Elizabeth's body was in.
"I... knew it," Yuji said as he placed his hands on the sheets that was locking the closet door.
"I'll be granting my promise now..." he said as he feels the knife inside his left pocket.
"Yukina is probably still asleep, better finish this before she wakes up...".
Yuji quickly unlocks the closet door and stepped a few steps back.
The closet door suddenly opened, and what came out was Elizabeth, who was transformed into an akuma.
"Great... you just turned so you still look the same..." Yuji said in a sad tone, "Just, more pale..." he said in a teary voice.
Elizabeth was locking eyes with Yuji, as she slowly stood up from the ground.
Yuji's hand began to shake, as he pulls out the knife from his pocket, "why... am I shaking..."
Elizabeth slowly stepped closer and closer to Yuji, as he pulls out his open left arm to Elizabeth, as if he's asking to be bitten.
"this is it... this way... I'll fulfill my promise...".
A memory flashes back when he was with Elizabeth.
"Hey... Yuji... can you promise me something?"
said Elizabeth,
"It's my wish... for you..."
"Anything..." Yuji said with a smile.
"Then... this is a bit weird but... will you let me bite you?" Elizabeth said.
Yuji was was stunned.
"I mean first turn me into an akuma... then..."
"Why..." Yuji said interrupting Elizabeth, "why do you want to be turned?".
"It's not that I want to be turned... the reason is, you might get my ability..."
"Huh?"
"Just maybe... if you get bitten, and you are aware of the akumas ability, then maybe... you can get that ability as well...your body is adapting after all..."
"That's..." Yuji said in a trembling voice, "you... do know what's next right? after I get bitten...".
Elizabeth nodded, "Yes, I'm well aware... that's why I want to ask you to end me quickly..."
"!!"
"After you let me bite you... then end me... as fast as possible..."
"Then... it's like I just used you... and threw you after..." Yuji said, feeling guilty.
"If you think like that... it will seem that way... but think about it like this, I want you to end me quickly... so that I won't turn ugly when I die," Elizabeth said with a smile.
"I may not seem like it, but I'm actually confident about my looks," she let out a small laugh.
End of flash back.
Yuji let's out a small laugh, "so it came to this...", Yuji said as he closed his eyes, "If I remember correctly, there should still be some syringes inside her shoulder bag..." Yuji thought as he braced himself.
Chomp*
Elizabeth held Yuji's arm then bites it.
"Ugh!" Yuji groaned, as he felt Elizabeth's teeth sink into his flesh.
"Alright... then..." Yuji thought, then suddenly.
Thud*
Earlier on Yukinas perspective.
"Hmm... that was a rather strange sound..." Yukina thought.
Hears the basement door open.
"He's going out?" she thought, as she keeps her eyes closed.
"He'll be fine... I should just rest..."
"..."
"..."
Yukina suddenly arises from the floor, with an irritated face, "Ugh, what's this feeling... I can't help but feel uneasy..."
She glanced at the closed door of the basement.
"I... should probably just check..." she said as she slowly stood up, "and seriously... to leave a girl behind just like that...".
Yukina walked over the stairs and slowly opened the basement door, "Light? oh, it's morning already," she said as she went outside to search for Yuji.
"Could he be..."
Thud*
An unknown sound emerged from the silence.
"That sound came from..." Yukina thought as she rushed over to the location of the sound.
Yukina approached the source of the sound, and as she arrived at the location.
"What..." Yukina thout as her body began to feel weak, as feelings of despair began to surface, due to the shock she was given by the sight she saw.
Her knees started to shake, as she covered her mouth with her hand.
Thud*
Yukina fell on her knees, with a utterly sad and shocked expression, As she sees Yuji get bitten by Elizabeth who was turned into an Akuma.
"Why... why... why..." She muttered as she looked on the floor with eyes about to burst into tears.
"Yukina..." Yuji said in a shocked voice, as he tilted his head towards her direction, with Elizabeths head stuck on his arm and her teeth sunken deep into his flesh.
Yukina's expression quickly changed from sad to shocked and confused in a single second, "what... how...." she said with a trembling voice.
"Yukina wait, I'll explain everything in a second..." Yuji said in a panicked tone, " I need to put her to rest first..." he gets the knife out and aims to stab Elizabeths head, with a trembling hand, "as clean as possible... I need to be... as clean as possible,".
The shaking of his hand began to spread to his arm as seconds pass, still not being able to stab Elizabeth, " come on... if I peirce the side of her head... then it will be over quickly... and..."
Suddenly a metal spear went behind Elizabeths head, then spun 180 degrees before it hits the lower back of her head, above the nape.
Smack*
Elizabeth's body quickly lost movement after the hit, as Yuji guided her body down the floor, removing her head from his arm after.
"What did you..." Yuji asked as he slowly turned around at Yukina.
Suddenly, the sharp end of a spear was pointing right between his eyes as he turned around.
"Huh?" Yuji said in shock.
"Explain... how are you still alive? are you still capable of talking?" Yukina asked, slightly being paranoid, "tell me... what the hell just happened?".
