Chapter Text

CRASH! The block crashed down on the stand. Junko hadn't been going for Makoto, but seeing him go down would be even sweeter. Watching his friends turn on him after all this time had been invigorating. And now that his luck was gone, it'd be all the easier to drag the rest of them down into despair.

Huh? Junko thought. Chihiro's AI had ruined the entire execution! Makoto had survived! The rage at having something go wrong, the annoyance at the fact that he was going to live was... was... Beautiful! Junko basked at her despair, as this was the third time today that her plans had been ruined. She couldn't have asked for a better outcome. Makoto was still dead though, as he was stuck in the garbage room with no way out. Might as well enjoy watching the other students fall into despair at that little fact.
