You woke up on the floor of your room; you must have fallen off your bed during the night. After all, you did have a dream about a break-in, so maybe you just freaked out while still being asleep. It was clearly early morning, and you sat up on the floor. Your neck and back hurt from sleeping in an awkward position on the hard wooden floor, so you groaned as you raised yourself and sat down on your bed. You reached for your phone to check the time.
"5:37... wow, I'm up early." You sighed, rubbing your eyes. You unlocked your phone and were immediately confused. You had about thirty notifications. "What the hell?" You clicked on the notifications and it opened a group chat. It was everyone that you exchanged numbers with at the academy. "Do they not sleep or something?" You asked yourself.

You are now offline
You didn't know a group chat this big could work. You had been in a group chat like that before and it was so difficult to communicate, you had to leave. You smiled to yourself as you got up and walked downstairs. Unsurprisingly, no one was awake yet, so you decided to make yourself some toast. At least Hiroya wouldn't serve you another burnt bagel...
Soon, you were done eating your toast and decided to head out for a bit. You felt like going to the park. After all, mornings were always nice in your town and the parks were beautiful. You liked to watch the fish in the pond as they swam around.
You put on your blue t-shirt and white skirt, grabbing your white backpack on the way out. As you left your house, you started to think about everything that had happened recently. You still felt like you didn't know enough about Kirumi to think of her as a friend, but at the same time you thought of Livia, Taki, Olivia and Naomi as friends. There was something off about Kirumi.
You remembered Katherine's advice. Maybe you really were just overthinking. Or maybe you were jealous? But why? You had never really been jealous of other people because they're also friends with your best friend. This time however, you felt like something wasn't right, though it felt wrong to just shut her out, or intervene. Kiyo seemed to like her, so you should as well, right? The last thing you wanted to do was upset him after just being reunited with him.
You were so deep in thought that you didn't realise you were at the park already. As you walked through the gates, you noticed someone. They looked kind of familiar. They were getting surrounded by a group. As you walked closer to get a better look, you came to a realisation. It was Takuya. The group were circling him and getting closer and closer. You pulled out your phone and texted Hiroya.
Metal Bat Boy
Come to the park quick and bring the bat
You waited, hoping he was awake already. Your prayers were answered as you felt your phone go off.
What's going on
My friend is in danger come quick
Ok ok I'm omw
You didn't just stop at that though. You called the police and told them what was going on. Now you were waiting for the police and Hiroya. You contemplated going over there to help Takuya out, but you weren't sure if that would make the situation better or worse.
As you stood there, Takuya must have noticed you, because he screamed.
"(Y/N)! HELP ME!" And with that, the eyes of the guys were on you. Two of them started walking towards you and you panicked. You didn't know what to do, and the fear caused you to freeze up and stay there. You were hoping Hiroya would get here soon. The guys were getting closer and closer. Soon, one of them grabbed you and you screamed, trying to get the attention of literally anyone.
"HIROYA! HELP!" You shouted, hoping that he was nearby. Hoping that he would hear. Hoping that he would help you.
