2.3: Prove Thyself
Caleb woke up next with a head splitting headache. Apparently, what ‘Akshar’ had done was attack Caleb out of a rage of believing he had killed his sister, putting Caleb into a week long Coma. And apparently, Akshar wasn't his true name either, as Caleb found out as he looked at his new updated student profile.
[Student Profile:
Name: SCP-682
Age: 700 sextillion
Title: Ultimate Juggernaut
Likes: His sister, holding his sister, meat, spicy food
Dislikes: Losing his sister, others bullying his sister, anything his sister dislikes.
Home Universe: SCP Foundation]
Lots of other revelations had been made. Rin’s real talent as the Ultimate Spirit had been unveiled, Caleb’s, Kazan’s, and Rin’s pasts as Killers for the Entity were discovered, and Caleb’s true talent as the Ultimate Bounty Hunter had been discovered. All of the secrets were now loose, and Caleb could only brace for the worst as he saw 682 approach out of the corner of his eye.
[....Caleb? I'm sorry.] 682 spoke in a downcast and depressed tone. [....I found the true killer. It was Akane. She…she tried to frame you. I got her executed. It was brutal, you don't want to see it.]
“Did she?” Caleb asked in a raspy voice.
[Yeah…I'm so sorry for jumping to conclusions…]
“Wait, so you don't hate me? Why?” He asked.
682 responded by showing a video. It showed Rosie filming herself with her monopad.
“Hi guys…Um…I wanted to tell you something. I think I'm gonna get killed soon. So, I got some bombshells to drop. Caleb is the Deathslinger, Kazan is the Oni, and Rin is the Spirit. Rin’s Ultimate Talent is Ultimate Spirit, and Caleb’s is Ultimate Bounty Hunter. But this by no means means I want you to exclude them. They have been nothing but helpful and peaceful so far, and knowing their track record so far, they should be the last ones to suspect of killing me if I do get killed. Also… my Talent is Ultimate Keter Class SCP and my brother is SCP-682, the Ultimate Juggernaut. I'm sorry. 682, if you're watching this, know my death was no one’s fault but the killer’s and Monokuma’s. I love you all, and I hope you all get to escape if I don't. Bye Bye!” The Video ended with Rosie smiling and waving at the camera before the footage ended.
Caleb found himself wiping away tears from his face. That girl knew she was going to get killed, and decided to help everyone as her last action before death. That girl did not have a single evil or spiteful bone in her body.
[She…she said to not blame you. So I came to apologize.]
“I accept…but can we do something?”
[Yeah?]
“Carry me to the elevator if I can't walk…I wanna go to the fourth floor.”
682 obliged, picking Caleb up and taking him to the elevator. Caleb called it and the two men got on, with 682 using his tail to press the button to send it to the fourth floor.
A Mournful silence soon followed. Rosie was a good kid with nothing but kindness and love for everyone in her heart. So naturally it was quite hard on everyone to lose her.
The elevator soon arrived, and Caleb directed 682 to a certain spot in the greenhouse-like floor.
There was a beautiful bed of Roses, and it seems that the others got here before Caleb and 682 did, as it was converted into a memorial for the girl.
682 set Caleb down and knelt next to the memorial.
[I….I needed this. Thank you, Caleb.]
“Figured you’d like it. Had a thought the others would do this.” Caleb replied.
[....I thought no one else would understand the depths of my grief for her…] 682 muttered.
“We all understand, 682, at least a little.” Caleb said. “It isn't easy losing a sister.”
[It never is…even if you've lost her several times before…]
“It never is, yes.”
They both looked at the portrait of Rosie in the memorial. She held a warm smile filled with love, that now seemed distant and cold now that the girl wasn't here.
“....We all miss her, 682.”
[And we’ll get out of here for her.]
“Yes, yes we will.”
