Chapter 4

(Y/n) entered the school, feeling a mixture of determination and fear. She had made another plan that morning : To seek out witnesses. Yugi, Jonouchi and Honda had all been beat up by Ushio the previous night.

I hope at least one of them show up today, she thought. They looked like they were beat up pretty badly.

As (Y/n) walked through the halls, she noticed two of the girls she had gone to middle school with. They looked concerned and we're talking in hushed tones.

"(Y/n)?" One of them asked. She walked over to the girls. " Yeah?"

"Did you hear about what happened to Ushio last night?" The other one questioned. " I heard he was exposed to a great shock. I wonder what it could be..."

"It was more than that!" The other one chimed in. "It was so bad, he had to be hospitalized!"

(Y/n) shivered. She knew Ushio had been in danger from that mysterious man she had encountered last night. But she had no idea that it had been that serious. (Y/n) felt a prick of sympathy for the hall monitor. But yet...

"... He kind of had it coming, if you think about it," she pitched in. " He was really mean to everyone. Even the teachers! Perhaps-"

"How can you say that?!" One of the girls interrupted. " Nobody deserves to be hospitalized! Even thugs like Ushio!"

(Y/n) flinched at her sharp comment. "Whatever," (Y/n) snapped, storming off.

She thought about what she was going to say. Perhaps justice has been served. But (Y/n) couldn't imagine how hospitalizing a bad person would do them good.

"Hey (Y/n)? Can you help me out?" Anzu asked her after school. (Y/n) noticed Honda and Miho, Honda's crush, looking at her nervously.

"Sure, Anzu. Anything to help a friend!" She replied cheerfully.

"Well... Don't tell anyone, (Y/n), but Honda, Miho and I have a part time job at Burger World," Anzu explained.    
(Y/n) looked slightly shocked. Anzu wasn't the type to break rules, and neither was Honda. The former bully was in the "Beautification Club", as he called it. In actuality, it was a janitor club.

" Why are you involving me in this?" (Y/n) asked. Miho skipped up to her. " We want you to come with us tomorrow!" She exclaimed in a loud, whisper voice before Anzu shot her a glare.

" Are you asking me to work with you guys?!" I questioned. Honda shook his head. "No way! It's bad enough that there are three students taking part time jobs, (Y/n). We want you to rate our services."

Oh! I get it! (Y/n) thought, understanding what her friends were asking.

" So, give my opinion, as well as pointers?"

"Exactly!" Anzu exclaimed. "So can you come tomorrow?"

"Sure I can-" (Y/n) broke off, suddenly remembering what her Dad had told her about a dangerous criminal on the loose. She gulped quietly enough so that only she could hear.

But (Y/n) looked at her friends. Miho looked extremely excited at her response, and Anzu and Honda were nodding of approval. These people were trusting her out of everyone in the school. Besides, it was highly unlikely that the criminal would come anywhere near them, so what was there to lose?

" Alright then," (Y/n) replied confidently. "Tomorrow it is,"
