It has been 2 months since my training with Alister began. He is a really good trainer and he taught me everything about boxing and according to him i am near his level. Maybe he is exaggerating about it but who knows. Also, thanks to the training i was able to control the power i gain from my anger to a certain point. The amount of the red colour in my eyes, as Alister noticed, is an indicator of how angry i am. But, as of now i can only control my anger when one of my eyes gets coloured. If i push it further i will lose control of my body and it will act on its own.
Honestly, sometimes my own increase in power scares me of the damage i could do. Everything was going just fine for those months and also i have been getting to know Hajime, Alister, Sakura, Shinji, Maria and Jacob better. But, i shouldn't had forgotten that my sisters had a plan and Junko didn't know that i was still alive. After the 2nd month we were gathered in Jacob's house for dinner and it was a great feast. We all enjoyed and laughed and everyone left for the night. Even Sakura and Shinji left the night from the house for some extra fun with their friends late at night. It was only me and Jacob at the house and we were cleaning up the place.
As soon as we were done, someone knocked the door and i went to look at the peephole. I was shocked. Junko and Mukuro were right outside and i started to fume. I told Jacob who it is and he said to me to go hide immediately. I wanted to stay with him but my secret had to be kept hidden. Reluctantly, i agreed and hid behind the curtains in the living room. The curtains were a dark blue and they could easily hide me from view, so i secretly listened.
Jacob: Junko? Why are you here? Where are your parents?
Junko: Can we come in. I would like to speak to you about it.
Jacob: Sure.
Junko: Thank you.
Jacob: So what happened?
Mukuro: Our beach house got burned down and we were the only ones that escaped the fire. Our parents and Yusuke are dead.
Jacob: I am sorry for your loss. But, Mukuro how are you not showing any sadness?
Mukuro: If i had to guess, probably cause of my talent "Ultimate Soldier". I don't show easily my emotions to others.
Jacob: That makes sense. So, is there anything i can do to help you girls?
Junko: As matter of fact there is.
Suddenly, Junko pulled behind her back a pistol with a silencer and pointed to Jacob.
Junko: You can go and give our regards to our parents.*fire's at him*
Jacob: *Bleeding out* So, you are telling me that you two did it.
Junko: Hahahaha. Yes, we did. Oh, you should have seen their faces full of despair. Watching their own daughter killing them both. Such a delight. SUCH BEAUTIFUL DESPAIR!
Jacob: *chuckles a bit* I knew it. I had a hunch that something else happened. Well, how about you hear a dying man's last words.
Junko: Sure, as long as you show your despair.
Jacob: *smiling* All of this, it will amount to nothing in the end cause i will not feel despair nor will i hope for someone to save me. All you will see is my anger and my rage towards you for not doing anything to help my friend from a psycho like you, Junko Enoshima.
Junko: Tch, you can bleed to death for all i care. Let's go, Mukuro
Mukuro: Okay, sis.
As i was looking at the scene, all of my instincts told me to attack then and there and kill her. However, i knew that because she has Mukuro by her side to protect her, it wouldn't be that easy. All of my emotions were overwhelming me watching Jacob get shot and me just standing there. When they left, i rushed to him hoping to save him.
Yusuke: Jacob, hang in there. I will stop the bleeding.
Jacob: No, don't. She shot my organs and i can feel that I don't have much left.
Yusuke: No, don't say that. You will be okay. Just hang in there.
Jacob: Yusuke, my dear boy. Don't blame yourself for this. I know that you are a strong man and you will never give up. Make her pay, for your parents and for me. Also, take this.
Yusuke: What, you didn't!
Jacob: Yes, i did. Also promise me, one thing.
Yusuke: What is it?
Jacob: Please protect my daughter and son. I have seen how you act with them and i know that you like Sakura.
Yusuke: I will protect them with my life. This is not a promise. It's my vow.
Jacob: Thank you, Yusuke. Thank...you...
As i felt his body get even more cold, i couldn't stop my tears. Jacob was like a step dad to me and i just saw him die in my arms. Then the sadness turned to rage and i started rampaging around the house destroying anything around me. The house was completely destroyed and about 5 minutes later Sakura and Shinji came home and saw the whole scene. Their home completely wrecked and me crying on top of Jacob.
Sakura: Yusuke, please tell me this is a joke.
I told them that it's not a joke and they didn't take it well at all. Sakura fell down to her knees crying her heart out and Shinji was just standing there frozen with tears running down his face. I slowly approached to comfort them and hugged them both.
Shinji: Who did this, Yusuke. Tell me.
Yusuke: It was Junko. She shot him with a silencer.
All i could hear was the siblings cries of sadness for losing their father. This shouldn't have happened but no matter what i say or think this is the end result. Looking both of them in the eyes i said with conviction.
Yusuke: I promise you, i will find Junko and i make her pay tenfold for what she did to you two and me.
Shinji: But, how do you know it was her?
Yusuke: Your father had a tape recorder on him and recorded the entire thing. Even the sound of the silencer. However, i was present. He told me to hide behind the curtains in the living room and i saw the scene unfold.
Shinji: THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU HELP HIM?
Yusuke: FIRST OF ALL, SHE WAS WITH MUKURO AND SHE CAN EASILY PIN ME DOWN. THEN YOU WOULD COME ACROSS TWO DEAD BODIES INSTEAD OF ONE AND DO YOU THINK I DIDN'T WANTED TO? HE WAS GIVING ME SIGNS NOT TO INTERFERE. HE...he wanted to protect me from her, like i was his son as well.
While saying the last line, i couldn't help but cry all over again. They understood somewhat the pain i was feeling and stayed by my side. After 2 minutes, i calmed down and Sakura asked.
Sakura: So, what do we do now?
Yusuke: Call Maria and explain to her everything. Shinji call the police to tell them about Jacob. We will tell them a slightly different story from the truth. I know it's not right but we can't take any risks with Junko. On the other hand, i have some work to do. It's time to start making my preparations for what is about to come and to do that i need more people on our side with resources. I need to call the headmaster of Hope's Peak Academy "Mr. Jin Kirigiri".
