Shuichi's POV

I desperately reached my hand out for Kaede, but a collar with a monokuma logo quickly attached itself around her neck and dragged her away.

She was hoisted up onto a large piano, and forced to dance on the notes that played Der Flohwalzer, as if she was some puppet.

I wanted to look away, but I couldn't. I was just frozen there, my eyes wide with terror, and salty tears streaming down my face.

Dead. Kaede was dead, in a hanging-like position. Then - all of a sudden - the lid of the piano with spikes, closed on Kaede, her blood splattering everywhere. One of the monokubs got killed too but not the point.

Kaede was dead. She was fucking dead. Never coming back to life. Dead, dead, dead.

I collapsed onto the floor and burst into tears. Kaede was there for me. Her kind words, her positivity...
It gave me confidence. And when she touched my hand, it gave me butterflies.

But love isn't suitable in a place like this. Not a killing game. What's the point of the loving someone if they're just going to fucking die, and for you to be sad all over again, huh? And who knows, they could just stab you in the back (literally-).
