## Transcript

(The Next Day)

[Kiyoyasu Riverbank, Morning]

**Fuyu** : .........

(Fuyu sees Yuna sitting near the riverbank)

**Fuyu** : Yuna.

**Yuna** : ........

(Fuyu approaches her)

**Fuyu** : Morning.

**Yuna** : .........

**Fuyu** : ..........

(Fuyu sits next to Yuna)

**Yuna** : ..........

**Fuyu** : ..........

**Yuna** : It's beautiful, isn't it?

**Fuyu** : Hm?

**Yuna** : This place.

**Fuyu** : .......Yeah.

**Yuna** : I used to come here a lot with Masaki and the others, before and after Night Fall was created.

**Fuyu** : I see.

**Yuna** : I used to believe that......ever since Night Fall fell apart......some of them would come here and reminisce about it.

**Yuna** : But......

**Fuyu** : ........

**Yuna** : Everyone disappeared.....everyone left......there's nothing for me for here.......even if I wait here forever, Masaki won't come back!

**Yuna** : But why?!

**Yuna** : My heart keeps telling me to come back here......to remember those happy times I had.......Do I intend to make myself suffer even more?! I don't.....I don't know.....

**Fuyu** : ........

**Yuna** : Fuyu......I've only known you recently, but......why are you all so kind to me?

**Fuyu** : .......I just can't stand to see someone stand alone. Same goes with the others.

**Yuna** : .......

**Fuyu** : But.....I know your feelings well.

**Yuna** : .......Explain.

**Fuyu** : You see........I lost my memories five months ago.

**Yuna** : What!?

**Fuyu** : I had no idea what to do at that time, I'm so confused and lost. But, fortunately for me.....

(Fuyu remembers the past events)

**Tamaki** : We're here for you, Fuyu!

**Hanami** : Remember our promise, Fuyu!

**Miezu** : Have you ever thought about being in a band?

**Bestisia** : You have proven your "justice" to me!

**Ayaka** : Thank you, Fuyu.

**King** : Then I, the Fabulous King Rosenkreuz, shall lend you my assistance!

(Flashback ends)

**Fuyu** : You can say that......I have changed.

**Yuna** : Hm...."Change", huh?

**Fuyu** : I'll have you know one thing, Sakaki Yuna.

**Yuna** : ......And what is that?

**Fuyu** : When I told you we would leave you alone after we helped you solve all your problems.......I meant that.

**Yuna** : I....I see.

**Fuyu** : However......

**Fuyu** : That also has changed.

**Yuna** : .....!

**Fuyu** : You're no longer just another stranger to me.

**Yuna** : ......

**Fuyu** : The moment we accepted you into the Music Club......I already considered you as a friend.

**Yuna** : ......That's good.

**Yuna** : .......

**Yuna** : ....Hey.

**Fuyu** : ?

**Yuna** : You guys were awfully stubborn back then.

**Fuyu** : I guess we are.

(Someone approaches Fuyu & Yuna from behind)

**Fuyu** : ......Who's there?!

**Yuna** : .....!

(Fuyu and Yuna turns to see....)

**Hitomi** : .........So you're here.

**Yuna** : Hitomi!!

**Hitomi** : Yuna, there's something I have to tell you.

**Yuna** : Wh-What is it?

**Hitomi** : That day.....I'm sorry I pushed you......I-I didn't mean it......

**Yuna** : That's okay! It's alright! I have no grudges against you or Kagura either.

**Hitomi** : I was so scared, Yuna......

**Yuna** : Scared of what?

**Hitomi** : Kagura......she changed.

**Yuna** : ........

**Kagura** : Well!!!

**Yuna** **& Hitomi** : !!!

(Kagura appears)

**Fuyu** : ........

**Kagura** : I knew you would be here, Yuna!

**Yuna** : Kagura!

**Kagura** : I assume....you must have heard about Masaki.

**Yuna** : !!!! Do you know anything? Tell me!!

**Kagura** : Hmmm.......

(Kagura throws a wrapped item)

**Yuna** : ....!!

(Yuna takes the item and opens it)

**Yuna** : ....!!!!!

(Inside it was a bloody scalpel)

**Yuna** : .........

**Kagura** : HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! You see that? That's Masaki's blood right there!

**Yuna** : .......Are you.....

**Yuna** : ......Are you the one who killed Masaki?

(Yuna clenches her fists)

**Fuyu** : ......

**Hitomi** : S-Stop it, you two! Yuna, you know that Kagura would never kill anyone!!

**Kagura** : Heh.

**Kagura** : So what if I am!?

**Yuna** : ........!!!

**Hitomi** : K-Kagura....That's a lie, isn't it?

**Kagura** : SHUT UP, HITOMI!!

**Hitomi** : Ah...!!

**Kagura** : You're just another useless sack of shit! Go die in a hole somewhere!!

**Yuna** : Stop it....

**Kagura** : I don't even know how you become a member of Night Fall in the first place! There's tons more people more qualified than a low-life like you!!

**Hitomi** : ......Kagura......

**Yuna** : Stop!

**Kagura** : As for Masaki, I feel really bad about her, you know.......

**Kagura** : She really was the worst idiot ever.

**Yuna** : I SAID STOP IT!!

(Yuna charges at Kagura, and slaps her)

**Kagura** : Gah! You......

**Kagura** : ......BITCH!!!

(Kagura attacks Yuna, and the two fights)

**Fuyu** : ......

**Hitomi** : Um, you're Yuna's friend, aren't you? Please, stop them!!

**Fuyu** : .......Wait.

**Hitomi** : .....?

**Yuna** : Why!? Why!? WHYYYYYYYYY!!!?????

(Yuna punches Kagura, then Kagura punches back)

**Kagura** : IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU!!! IF YOU HADN'T DISAPPEARED THAT DAY.....WE WOULD ALL STILL BE FRIENDS!!!!!

**Yuna** : NO!!! YOU BLAMED ME IN EVERYONE'S FACES!!! I-I NEVER DID ANYTHING WRONG!!!

**Kagura** : Nothing wrong? Are you delusional? YOU BETRAYED US!!!

(The fistfight continues)

**Yuna** : WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!!? WHAT CAUSED YOU TO CHANGE THIS MUCH!!!??

**Kagura** : SHUT UP! YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ME!!

(The fight continues)

**Hitomi** : Ah! I can't watch anymore of this!

(Hitomi rushes to stop them)

**Fuyu** : .........

**Yuna** : But....why??! Why Masaki!!? She did nothing wrong.....Why...!?

**Kagura** : .......Because she holds us together.

**Yuna** : .......What?

**Kagura** : Can't you see? The moment Masaki is hospitalized, we broke off days later. Do you know what that means?

**Yuna** : .......

**Hitomi** : ......Ah....

**Kagura** : THAT MEANS.....! WITHOUT MASAKI AROUND, I CAN FINALLY DESTROY YOU, YUNA!!!!

**Yuna** : .......

**Hitomi** : Kagura, stop it! Yuna already suffered enough, stop! I beg of you, please......

**Yuna** : You hated me that much....?

**Kagura** : .......Yes. Yes, I do.

**Yuna** : Then why......why didn't you just kill me? Why does Masaki has to die? Tell me this, at least.

**Kagura** : Are you deaf? I just said-

**Yuna** : You're lying.

**Kagura** : WHAT?! NO, I DIDN'T!!

**Yuna** : Yes, you are. Because.......everytime you lie, Kagura....

**Yuna** : Your left eyebrow twitches.

**Kagura** : What!? No one ever told me tha-

**Hitomi** : Yuna? What are you-

**Yuna** : Exactly. I lied.

**Kagura** : ...!! Dammit!!

**Yuna** : You didn't kill Masaki to ruin Night Fall. I knew you long enough to understand that, Kagura.

**Kagura** : ........

**Yuna** : You could have ended the whole problem with me, Kagura. But you didn't.....you just intend to see me suffer, don't you?

**Kagura** : Guh......Shut up.....

**Yuna** : You always hate it when someone discovers your plan....Guess I was right.

**Kagura** : Shut up.....SHUT UP!!!!

**Hitomi** : .......

**Fuyu** : (Yuna.....)

**Kagura** : I have to destroy you, Yuna! Whatever it takes! I have to!

**Yuna** : Why? Was it revenge? Was it my inability to lead? Or was it.......someone else?

**Kagura** : ......This has nothing to do with you!!

**???** : Stuck in a difficult argument, are we?

**Kagura** : Yagumire!!!!

(The malevolent girl appears)

**Kagura** : W-Why are you here?

**Shizuka Yagumire** : The Class Leader ordered me to keep an eye on you and Nakayoshi.

**Kagura** : I thought I told her that I'm fine on my own.

**Shizuka** : Negative. The Class Leader deems your reason deniable.

**Kagura** : Bullshit!

**Shizuka** : ......You dare to oppose the Class Leader?

**Kagura** : ...........I'm sorry. I went overboard.

**Shizuka** : Good. Now come with me.

(Shizuka leaves with Kagura and Hitomi)

**Yuna** : W-Wait!!!

(Shizuka moves between them)

**Shizuka** : We meet again.

**Yuna** : .....!!! (What's with her?!)

**Fuyu** : Yuna! Stay away from her!

**Yuna** : .....Eh?

(Shizuka pushes Yuna)

**Yuna** : Gah!!

**Fuyu** : Yuna! Are you alright?

(Shizuka walks to Fuyu)

**Shizuka** : .........Your name. Tell me.

**Fuyu** : Fuyu Hime.

**Shizuka** : ...!!!!

(Shizuka touches her face, suddenly feeling ill)

**Shizuka** : ......I....I....see.

**Shizuka** : Well....if you....excuse...me.

(Shizuka leaves)

**Fuyu** : Yuna!

**Yuna** : It's alright....I'm not hurt!

**Yuna** : But.....what is with that girl?

**Fuyu** : .....She's malicious, that's for sure.

[Somewhere else.....]

**Kagura** : ......(Dammit....)

**Hitomi** : (Hey, Kagura)

**Kagura** : (What?)

**Hitomi** : (Yagumire-san is acting strange)

**Kagura** : (Huh?)

(Kagura looks at Shizuka)

**Shizuka** : (Fuyu.......where have I heard....that name....before...)

**Shizuka** : (..........)

**Shizuka** : (It's probably nothing important...)

**Shizuka** : ....? What?

**Kagura** : It's uh.....you seem concerned about something.....

**Shizuka** : It's none of your concern.

**Kagura** : Y-Yes.....

**Shizuka** : ...........

[Unknown]

**Shizuka** : We have returned, Class Leader.

**???** : Welcome back, Yagumire. I see Nakayoshi and Chiyoye are with you too.

**Hitomi** : Class Leader, I-

**???** : It's okay. Go back to your room.

**Hitomi** : .......By your command, Class Leader.

(Hitomi leaves the room)

**???** : As for you, Chiyoye, you're covered in wounds. What happened?

**Kagura** : I fell down a step of sta-

**Shizuka** : She got into a fistfight.

**???** : Hoh?

**Kagura** : Class Leader, I'm sorry! Please, forgive me!

**???** : Well, as long as you didn't ruin our prestigious school's reputation, we'll be fine. Now go. Leave my sight, if you will.

**Kagura** : Th-Thank you, Class Leader!

(Kagura leaves the room)

**Shizuka** : ........

**???** : Who did she fought?

**Shizuka** : Someone from YamiTsume, Class Leader.

**???** : ......YamiTsume High, huh?

**???** : Good to hear.

(The Next Day......)

[YamiTsume High School, Morning]

**Bestisia** : EEEEEHHHHHHHH????!!!!!!

(Ayaka covers Bestisia's mouth)

**Ayaka** : Bestisia, be quiet!

**Bestisia** : MmmggghhhhhHHH!!!!

**Tamami** : You two met Nakayoshi-san and Kagura-san yesterday??!!

**Ayaka** : Tamami, shush!

**Yuna** : Yeah....

**Tamami** : We promised we would do it together, didn't we?

**Fuyu** : Calm down, Tamami. We met them by accident.

**Tamami** : I see......I'm sorry, Yuna-chan.

**Yuna** : It's alright, Tamami. It's my fault for keeping it secret.

**Miezu** : I see......Then, we need to report this to the Principal first.

**Miezu** : Fuyu and Yuna, you'll be coming with me.

**Fuyu & Yuna** : ......
