39.

Junko is dead. Nagito is dead. "Why don't I just die already?"

"Being dead is not as fun as you think it is." I looked around the room and I was back at the house Junko, Izuru, Mukuro and I stayed at.

"It's better than being on that island." "Aren't they your friends? People you hold near and dear to you?" She grinned.

I smiled. "Of course the people who suspect me as a murder suspect each trial are my friends." Junko just laughed.

"I'm happy you find this funny. How could you let someone kill you anyway?" I crossed my arms. She picked at her red nails.

"Their hope was just too strong for me. Plus I thought it be better anyway." She told me someone by the name Makoto did it.

"His hope was the strongest so I had to let that side win." She seemed satisfied so I didn't question her any longer about it.

"If you're happy then I'll accept it." "[Name] I planned to pin everything on you before. I wanted you to take the blame."

I rolled my eyes. "But then I thought about what would bring me more despair. Losing you or letting you be free."

I glanced at the girl who seemed to be battling her own thoughts. "You're unpredictable. That's why I was drawn into you. I couldn't tell if you'd be good or bad for me."

Her smile was small. It looked genuine, like she was happy.

"And I thought that you dying would be painful, extremely painful. Which is what I want, since that's a beautiful despair."

I just stayed quite and let her talk. "However for some reason I just couldn't do it. I didn't want to see you die." I was surprised by that sentence.

"You, the big bad Junko, didn't kill me because it would bring you despair?" I hid my laughter. "I must be very important to you."

Her face was red. "Don't mock me idiot." I held her face and bring it close to mines. My smile grew.

"Don't worry, I'll continue to bring the world into despair or maybe not. Which ever feels good in the moment."

Once again I was surprised by her. Junko pulled my body close to her as we hugged.

"That's why I like you. I'll always be watching so do what you do best and be unpredictable."

I felt my tears rush down my face. It's been a while since she hugged me. How long has it been since you died?

"I miss you so much." The room fell quite as I was back on the trial grounds. "Someone who's crying couldn't had killed him."

I was imagining things again. I wiped my face. "I know we just went through everything to find out Nagito did it to himself but..."

Kazuichi drifted off. "Oh you idiots came to terms on who the suspect and victim is?" I cleared my throat.

"Are we going to brush past you crying and saying you miss Nagito?" Akane questioned me. "Yes [Name] we came to turns on who it might be."

Hajime answered me. "That bastard Nagito. How could he kill himself like that?" Fuyuhiko slammed his fist onto the podium.

I sighed. These clueless idiots. "I know he was crazy but not this crazy." The pink haired shark groaned.

Chiaki hasn't said anything that I know of in a while. I like Chiaki a lot, my memories of her aren't all there. But she was really nice to me.

Though I do like Nagito more, he completes me and I complete him. Just as it's the same with Junko.

"Hey why don't I solve this case. I realized the despair you will all be in." I grinned at the six students. "What do you mean?"

The gamer asked. "Well Nagito wasn't killed by me or himself. It was one of you guys."

I laughed. "Will you guys even believe that?"

"Can you just stop already?" Sonia held her arm and frowned.

"What?" I asked her. "There's no way anyone of us did it. I refuse to believe it."

"I'm on Miss Sonia's side too. There's no way any of us killed him, especially like that."

"I guess you guys want to die." My gleeful tone cheered at them.

"Nagito had one thing besides me that he depended on a lot. And that was his luck." I just can't listen to them anymore.

"His goal is too weed out the traitor. I know who that person is, and I'm telling you know it's neither Nagito or me."

"But how do we trust you?" Hajime voiced out. "Was I ever wrong in the end solving other trials?" It was quite.

"However I wouldn't mind dying, then I'd get to be with her. But traitor are you okay with seeing your friends die?"

I tapped my chin. "Wouldn't bringing them here in the first place just for them to die be pointless?"

"Who are you talking to?" Akane asked.

"The traitor of course." They all began to mumble about it being none of them. As I was finally about to give up she spoke up.

"I don't want my friends to die. I don't want you guys to get hurt anymore." Chiaki said in a low tone.

"Chiaki wait-" Hajime tried to stop her but she smiled at him and said it'd be okay.

I'm guessing he figured out she was the traitor.

"I'm the traitor. I was sent from the future foundation to come here and to see how you guys were doing."

"Shut up!" Fuyuhiko yelled. "You're not the traitor." Sonia joined. "Yes you can't be, then that means you killed Nagito."

Chiaki shook her head. "I am the traitor and I'm going to have [Name] and Hajime help me prove it. So please listen."

Hajime face grew pale.

Being able to kill her only felt right since she really is the reason for Nagito. But I'm not saying she deserves death.

"I-I can't do that Chiaki. You're basically asking me to kill you." Hajime gripped his chest while the gamer held onto his hand and smiled.

"You're the one I want to see solve this. Okay? I know you can do it, just believe in yourself." My heart warmed up as I watched them interact.

I wonder if I could've been like this with Nagito. It would be nice if we all could've lived and been with that one person whom we cared for a lot.

Fuyuhiko with Peko. Sonia with Gundum. Akane with Nekomaru. Hajime with Chiaki. And me with Nagito.

It's funny that we all lost someone dear to our hearts within this timeframe.

I glanced at Chiaki who still held onto Hajime's hand.

Let's remember this moment. My brain took a mental photo as I stretched my body.

"Okay Chiaki, I'll be your hope and despair for the rest of the trial. So put your faith in us both." She nods and smiled at me.

"Thank you [Name]."
