Chapter 56

Soraru jolted forward as he clenched his head, tears formed in his eyes as he tried to calm down the raging pain in his head. Mafu was worried for the raven-haired and quickly went by his side.

"A-Are you okay Soraru?" Mafu asked as the raven-haired simply nodded his head.

He looked up to see that they were by the gates, Sakata was happily talking to the green eyed brunette, who blinked his eyes to process his surroundings. Urata turned to look at the raven-haired in confusion.

Both of them noticed that the sun was shining bright, Urata took out his phone to see the time say 6:30 am.

"It's the morning."

"Yeah." Soraru replied, he was confused at how they went that far back.

"Doesn't it usually send us just a few minutes before the death?" Urata asked the raven-haired, who slowly nodded his head.

"This is kinda weird."

"Well let's just get these two days over so we can enjoy our summer vacation." Sakata cheerfully said as he dragged Urata with him.

The green eyed brunette just stared at the redhead, it was the same exact thing that he said in the previous reset.

They entered the school, only this time instead of being greeted by glares, the students were minding their own business and talking with one another.

Urata was relieved that nobody seemed to hate him now, but that just made him slightly uneasy at how everything somehow changed. He glanced at the smiling redhead that was walking in front of him. He hugged Sakata, who blushed at the sudden action, not really caring about his pride at the moment.

"E-Eh? U-Urata?"

"I'm just tired so let me do this for once." Urata said as he sighed in relief. At least he doesn't remember the previous reset. The green eyed brunette didn't want to see the redhead cry again, no one would like to see someone innocent as him cry.

They got to class, Urata sat down and saw no one giving him malice looks. But how? He was grateful of not having a false rumor about him spread around, but the fact that it just suddenly doesn't happen concerned him.

I wonder what's going on with Kashitaro? The moment the thought occurred in his mind Urata widened his eyes in realization. He doesn't seem to different either.

The guys always got their tattoo a few minutes after a reset and they'd react to the tattoo burning them. But Kashitaro didn't seem to look like he was in any pain at all.

Class went on by, and just like in the previous reset, there were a few minutes left to spare until lunch. The teacher had asked Sakata to deliver something to the faculty room and told Sorato to go with him.

Urata watched the two leave and noticed that the short raven-haired glance back at him before heading out of the class.

The green eyed brunette rose his eyebrow in confusion before brushing it off. He glanced to the side to see the girl, who had showed him the picture, was talking to her friends.

Urata shook his head to take his mind off of it, that doesn't happen anymore so I shouldn't think about it. The short brunette decided to talk to Shima as they wait for the other two males to come back.

The lunch bell rang and the guys left the classroom to head towards the roof. Sorato said that he wanted something from the cafeteria and left to get it.

Wait, but in the last reset he said he didn't have any money... Urata thought as he watched the short raven-haired walk away. Unless he just lied to get Sakata to leave so he can ask us about the picture. The green eyed brunette just sighed as he walked with the other two to the roof.

When they got there, Urata saw Amatsuki happily chatting with Kashitaro. At least they don't have to worry about that.

Senra saw the three arrive before his eyes landed on the redhead. The blonde's smile slightly faltered as he thought about something. Should I try to see his memory again? Just to see if what I saw was true. Senra was hesitant and quickly looked away when he saw Sakata stare at him in confusion.

Soraru noticed that Mafu kept a small gap between himself and Sakata, making him look at the albino in confusion. Mafu and Senra both seem uneasy around Sakata.

The raven-haired wasn't sure if he should ask them. Well Senra still has to tell me what he saw.

The raven-haired had noticed that whenever the blonde was going to tell him something always happened to cut him off. That's definitely strange.

As the he was thinking about it, he saw Kashitaro wince suddenly. The brunette went to rub his shoulder to ease the sudden pain.

"Kashi are you okay?" Amatsuki asked as he looked at his boyfriend in concern.

"I just felt like something burned my shoulder."

Kashitaro looked up at them, only to meet the raven-haired's gaze.

"I'll explain everything but don't mention anything about a tattoo."

"Eh?"

Kashitaro was confused at hearing the raven-haired even though he didn't speak. He was also confused what Soraru had said about a tattoo.

"Is there a reason that it burns?" Luz asked before mentally smacking himself once he realized why.

"So Kashi got his tattoo." Nqrse said, the raven-haired simply nodded his head.

"So that means that he...died..." Amatsuki stated as his smile slightly faltered at the thought of Kashitaro dying.

"Wait I died?"

Kashitaro was completely lost at everything that was happening at the moment.

"We'll tell you later, well more like Soraru and Urata will tell you later." Shima said as he gave the brunette a small smile. Kashitaro just nodded his head.

"Just don't mention anything about a tattoo." Senra said though Kashitaro looked at him confused.

"But if you all seem to know then why—"

"There's still someone here that doesn't know about it and we just have to act like we don't know either." Urata stated as he glanced at the implied male.

"Oh, okay."

"I-I probably just got a sunburn and didn't realize until now." Kashitaro lied as he looked at them.

"What kind of idiot doesn't realize that?" Urata said as he gave the brunette an 'are you serious' look after hearing his terrible lie.

The guys then slowly glanced at a certain redhead, who noticed their looks and became annoyed.

"Hey! Don't just single me out!"

"We didn't say it was you." Senra teased as Sakata pouted.

"But you were implying that with the way you guys looked at me."

"Because you're the idiot of the group." Shima jokingly said.

"Www it's just that you're so easy to tease." Luz said as poked the redhead's cheek.

"Yamete!"

"Oi cut that out." Urata slapped the light haired male's hand away.

"Www I made the boyfriend mad."

"Oi." Urata said in a threatening tone as he glared at Luz.

"You also made him jealous." Soraru added as he smirked at the short brunette.

"I'll kill you guys if you continue talking."

"Www typical Urata." Mafu said as he giggled at the small blush on the green eyed brunette's face.

The bell rang, making the guys look at each other. Urata noticed that the short raven-haired hadn't come back at all. Eh, he's probably fine. Urata thought as he walked back to class with the others.

It was after school, the guys were waiting for the redhead, who had to go talk to a teacher about his grades, to come back. Just like the previous reset, Urata felt someone bump into his back.

"Ah, sorry."

It was the very same girl he bumped into at the festival. She looked shy and awkward, not bitchy and bratty as before.

"It's okay...." Urata was uncertain on what to say and decided to just accept the apology.

The girl smiled and walked away. Soraru and Urata just stared at her. She didn't say anything about a kiss. Soraru thought as he began to get even more confused.

Sakata came back and tackled the green eyed brunette in a hug, which slightly annoyed Urata but he also was happy that he didn't have to see him cry this time.

They were walking home, Kashitaro was still confused about the whole thing with the tattoo and abilities so he decided to ask Soraru.

"So what's with the tattoo?"

"Basically you died in the previous reset, which is kinda like another reality, and get an ability." Soraru said as he looked at the brunette with a side glance.

"And how come I'm alive now?"

"My ability is to reset time so I went back to before you died."

"Oh....."

Kashitaro was surprised at the new information and decided to look at his shoulder to see the tattoo.

Small stars were scattered on his shoulder. He saw that they seemed to look as if they were shining. The stars varied in sizes as they decorated his shoulder. He found the design cute and smiled a bit. He then went back to looking at the raven-haired.

"So what's my ability?"

"We'll have to see tomorrow after school."

"Okay."

The guys waved goodbye at each other as they parted ways to go home. Urata was now floating besides the raven-haired.

"So......are we going to check out the book?"

Urata's voice showed hesitation, and a bit of pity, as he looked at Soraru. The green eyed brunette could tell that the question made the raven-haired uneasy.

Soraru slightly tensed up at the green eyed brunette's question before taking a deep breath to calm himself down. The raven-haired didn't think they should, after all there was only one left and they already know who it is. Urata could see the raven-haired's hesitation based on his silence.

"At least we'd know what his tattoo would be." Urata tried to reason as the raven-haired sighed.

"Yeah...." Soraru said as he looked down.

They made it to the raven-haired's house, Soraru greeted his parents with a smile as he entered. Urata could only watch in sorrow as the raven-haired did anything but look at the book.

Soraru was trying to postpone it. He didn't want to face the truth that the book would show him. He just didn't want to accept it.

At least not yet. He knew he'd have to see it at some point but.........

He'd rather not touch the book.

Eventually he did everything he could and needed to do, and was now laying down faced up on his bed. He was staring at the ceiling while Urata was staring at him.

"You're gonna have to check it eventually, better earlier than never."

Soraru sighed and sat up on his bed. He looked at the book that was on his desk.

The raven-haired stared at it in what felt like an eternity. He hesitantly got up to grab it.

Each step he took was like a stab in his heart, he didn't want to see what the book would say.

He already knew it, so why should he need to see it?

Soraru picked up the book as Urata floated besides him. The raven-haired opened it up and flipped the pages. He saw that his tattoo and the sakura tattoo looked even more faded than usual.

The blank page was still blank, it looked abandoned, deserted of any drawing or writing.

Soraru eventually got the Kashitaro's tattoo, the page showed the story of a prince being betrayed by their friend and pushed of a cliff.

Wait, betrayed? Soraru was confused at the words written on the page. He decided to look more on that later and took a deep breath as he flipped to the next page.

Urata and Soraru looked at the tattoo— no it wasn't even a tattoo it was a drawing.

The green eyed brunette widened his eyes as he stared at it in shock.

"W-Wait, so Mafu already..."

The raven-haired just stared at it, unable to comprehend what he is looking at.

A drawing of a small, young, smiling albino was on the page. The barcode on his cheek stood out along with the red eyes as the words on the page shocked them.

The grandchild of a medusa.

Innocent and kind, willing to help those he cares about.

His body is frail because of his ability as it puts a strain on him.

So please take care and protect him.
