(Fuck it's been so long that I don't even know how to end this arc. Any suggestions )

In that moment, all I could feel, was tension.

Tension in my arms as I pinned him down. Tension in my thighs as the spread over him.

Tension in my thoughts as I processed my actions.

And tension in my heart, as Ryoma looked up at me. With an emotionless face.

"What's happened to you Kirumi?" He asked me in an empty, monotone like nature.

"What do you mean?" I asked continuing to pin him down.

"Why? Why are you back to... this?" Ryoma asked continuing to use a monotone voice.

I knew what he meant. Why am I using my body to get what I want. Why am I selfishly taking advantage of my figure in hopes of getting what I want. But I couldn't let him know that.

"I was always happy like this!" I said to him with a fake smile. "Getting to be used properly and efficiently by others has always been something that brought me joy. And the money never hurt~" I said with a sly face.

This was a desperate message I was sending to him in hopes he will understand that I want him to use me. I still want to be by his side. Any means necessary.

And he understood. But not in the way I had hopped..

"Kirumi... You need to leave" Ryoma told me with a deadpanned expression.

This response shattered me internally. But I couldn't just give up!

"L-leave? Why? Don't you want to have f-fun with me?" I asked him with a shaky voice.

"... No. Not like this. Never! This way!" Ryoma sternly said to me.

He had managed to free himself from my grasp and stood infront of me.

"... Kaito is not the only one who hates liars"

With that being said to me. Without looking at him or Miu. I left. I could never face him again after this.

End

Yeah, so like stated above, I have no idea how I'm going to end Kirumi's mini arc in the book as of right now. I've spent awhile trying to figure out on how, but I'm having serious writer's block with this one specifically. I have a general plan for next one which is more action packed with the two selected characters so I should be able to complete those without any trouble.

The OC storyline as always isn't a problem since their a lot easier for me to write since their a fewer characters to focus on and it's open world setting. However, due to a dilemma, I have to think a little about their storyline.

The two sides are planned to have several arcs for characters and plot. 

The V3 side is set with this arc currently for understanding the inner thoughts and emotions the cast is feeling since the events of the earlier chapters and getting back on their feet in hopes of "Escaping".

As for the OCS. I have planned out for their to be a third saga after the current one. The MC saga is not a problem to get through since it is the most straightforward of the three sagas. What I have to plan is how this saga will lead into the third.

Lastly is my decision to add a side storyline of the resistance's perseverance and making them more prevalent in the book. I was planning this more for book 2, but alongside Shuichi and Tori/Troy/????, Makoto Naegi will be the third protagonist and will serve as the main perspective for the resistance arc. I need to spend time on how to properly incorporate him.

As such, I've decided to go on a very temporary hiatus to plan this out.

I apologize for the lack of updates and content release. My goal is to get through book 1 specifically. Once that is done, I know I will be able to write the others since

1. They are much shorter
2. Less perspectives to follow
3. A linear plot
4. A concrete timeline
5. A balance of action, plot development and character development.

Thank you for the support over the past year and for getting this book to 5k views.

See you soon,

Tori

Update:

Okay, so complete ending now. Rushed heavily. So due to that. Let me give a quick breakdown of Kirumi and her character.

Kirumi in the original book was a selfish girl who would do anything for money.

She would use her body to gain said money.

In the origins book, we learn that the reason she gives up her body is due to grooming.

Kirumi's Father died in war and her mother passed away when she was no older than five and was raised by her grandmother.

For an unknown reason, Kirumi's grandmother wanted to shield her from the world. This resulted in Kirumi being homeschooled and isolated from the world. Due to never having any outside of her grandmother, Kirumi craved connection.

When she was around 9, her grandmother allowed her to use a computer where Kirumi discovered pornography.

When watching it, Kirumi believed that when people commence in sexual activities, a connection is formed. Which is true depending on the general relationship. But Kirumi didn't know this.

So when she had to enter public school, she allowed herself to be used by her male teacher due to bullying and being unable to build connections with her peers.

When they were done, the teacher gave her money. Claiming that, if she were to allow others to do this, she should earn money. Which is what put her on this path.

Kirumi never found a decent connection through this method but still kept trying. Even though she didn't want to believe it, she knew the only reason why people approached her was for her body.

You know how it all went down when she met Ryoma.

Now months after then, when seeing Ryoma spend more time with Miu, it builds a rage within Kirumi causing great envy as you see here.

Because Ryoma is that important to her, she would go back to her old ways just to maintain that relationship.

So yeah, that's her character,

For me, Kirumi and Kaede have always been characters I wanted to expand on most because I found them so interesting.

I'm doing my best with the others and trying to make them the most unique and interesting as they can.

But Kirumi and Kaede will always be the most unique out of the 16 to me.

So with that all being said, see you next chapter!
