Yumeko POV
Finding info about the 2nd years is quite tough. Although Nanami-senpai is on our side. She seems to be keeping quiet. I guess it couldn't be helped since she might end up being Nagumo's target. So, I decided to find another way. I decided to ask around and find a 2nd year girl. Luckily, I managed to ask Nanami-senpai who told me to talk to someone named Asahina Nazuna who was a 2nd year from Class A. Nanami-senpai told me that she's a good friend of hers and I can trust her. She also described her as having long chocolate-brown hair with a sunflower hair pin. With that information, I decided to find Asahina-senpai.
It took me a few minutes and I managed to find Asahina-senpai.
"Hello, are you Asahina-senpai?" I asked
"Oh hello, are you a kouhai?" she asked
"Why yes, Jabami Yumeko from, Class 1-S, nice to meet you" I said as I gave her a hand
"Class S? Ohh that special class that Fuka-chan and Chiaki-chan have been talking about? she asked
"Yes, I am from Class S, also nice amulet there" I said
"Thanks, anyways what do you want?" alright time to work my magic.
"I want to get straight to the point, I want information." I spoke
"Information? on who?"
"You know who I'm talking about, I'm sure Nanami-senpai told you about him right?"
"And by "him" do you mean Miyabi?" Asahina-senpai asked
"That's right." I replied
"Do you know anything about what he's doing right now or what he plans for the girls?" I asked
"Well, to be honest I don't think I can say much." she replied
"Don't worry about it, he won't know that one of his fellow classmates decided to feed Class S information about him and the rest of the 2nd years. We can keep this a secret if that's alright?" I asked
"Well, I guess so. Since you are from Class S, you must be friends with Ayanokouji-kun." she said
"You know him?"
"Well, he did actually help me find my amulet that I lost once" she explained
Huh? did Ayanokouji-kun help her in the past? When did this happen?
"I haven't actually managed to thank him yet, so please tell him when you see him. Plus, I do owe him one after all, so I guess I wouldn't mind telling you about Miyabi and what's being going on with the other groups" she said
"That's great" I said happily
From there Asahina-senpai told me enough information about what's going on. She told me that Miyabi despite his ruthless actions, he is an honest man who would never lie and would always play fair. She also told me about that there is one group that had been very particular in who they pick for their group and apparently Tachibana-senpai got caught up in it. She added that even Nanami-senpai has been curious about why this group in particular are doing this.
"I see but do you really trust someone like Nagumo?" I asked
"I did tell you that he's a man of his word so there isn't much for me to say" she replied

Nighttime
Yuuichi POV
The boys are getting ready for bed, it was a bit awkward with all that silent. We are all just minding our business until Hashimoto broke the silence.
"Hey Ishizaki! you've been acting weird lately, what the hell's been bothering you?" he asked as Ishizaki gave him a dead look and just stayed silent as he just gets to his bed.
"*sigh* well let's at least tell some stories, I'm kinda bored right now and I'm not interested in going to bed yet." he said
"As long as it doesn't bore anyone, I'm fine with it" Hikigaya said
"I think I've already heard your stories countless times back at school so whatever do what you want" Togami said
"So, you're saying you like my stories rich boy? Hashimoto asked
"I didn't say anything" Togami replied
"Well, I got a good one, I used to smoke before high school."
"Wait really?" I asked
"Yeah, but not that long. My old man told me it would make me feel like a man if I smoke but my mother told me otherwise. She told me "Smoking is bad, it will give you bad lungs""
"And you stopped?" Kei asked
"Pretty much, besides since I'm playing tennis and stuff, I don't want to start burning and poisoning my lungs because of it." he said
"Well at least you're keeping a healthy lifestyle" Kei said
"What about you Shinomiya? You seem to have plenty of stories to tell" Hashimoto said
"Oh yeah there is a lot, but I want Yuuichi-kun to tell them"
"Kei what are you doing?" I asked
"Don't worry about it, if you missed any detail, I could lend a hand. Remember I have a good memory after all"
"That's not the problem" I said knowing where Kei is going with this.
"You two seem to have a history, I guess it's fine if I hear it from Katagiri" Hikigaya said
"Yes, I do agree with Hikigaya. Just like Ayanokouji, you two are a mystery so tell us about whatever stories you have" Togami said
"Same here, I mean I know you're scary and all but I'm sure that it has something to do with your past" Yukimura said
I can't tell them any of my stories. I know I've done horrible things, but I can't just straight up say that I've been in the Tomodachi Game. That's what I ended up doing before coming here. The stuff like gambling, betrayal, I wanted to at least take a break from that.
"Come on Yuuichi-kun at least just one, you don't need it to be that detailed. At least just mention the exciting parts." Kei said.
"*sigh* alright fine"
"Well, there's this one time I got caught in a game with a random stranger named Kuroki. The guy took my friend and forced me to play a game where I'm forced to endure a said amount of pain, or I have to see my friend be forced to that pain."
"Huh?! what do you mean?" Yukimura asked
"A game that involves pain. Are you dealing with a delinquent or something?" Miyake asked
"Well, you could say that. He held my friend hostage and forced me to play."
"So, what is this pain you went through huh?" Hashimoto asked sounding intrigued
"Yes Yuuichi-kun, tell us what happened" Kei said while forming a smirk. *sigh* he really wants me to tell it so badly.
"Well, it consists of three stages. First, I got beat up. The second was getting my fingernails forcibly removed..."
"Say what!?" everyone screamed except for Kei, Togami, Hikigaya, and Kiyotaka.
"Y-you're kidding me, right? that actually happened to you?" Hashimoto asked in shock
"Yeah, it hurts like hell but I'm fine" I replied
As expected, they are a bit shocked about what I've told so far aside from the others. I can see Kei with a big grin. Kiyotaka despite the blank face of his, I can tell he's intrigued. Hikigaya doesn't seem to give a crap based on his expressionless face, while Togami seems to just gaze at me without any expression.
"Well, that was exciting. So, what's next?" Kei asked
"You see that 2nd stage isn't even the worst part" I said
"Hold on so you're saying that there's something worse that you have to endure?" Hikigaya asked
"Yes, because the 3rd stage of that game was...." everyone waited in anticipation to what I have to say.
"I had to get my hand stabbed"
With that everyone was speechless. Kei had an amused face which was odd but not surprising given that this wouldn't be the worst thing that I've been through, and he knows it. Kiyotaka kept his blank face as usual. Togami and Hikigaya raised an eyebrow while the rest had their mouths open in shock.
"Are you crazy? did you seriously agree and went through all of that?" Yukimura asked
"I had to save a friend to do so, I had no choice" I replied
Everyone understood while some were dumbfounded by my story.
"What an interesting story Yuuichi-kun. See it's not so bad to get something out of your chest every once in a while." Kei said happily
"Yeah, I guess so but I'm not doing it again" I replied with a bitter tone
"To think that you still had a hand to this day, I must say it is admirable what you did for your friend. Insane of you to do so but admirable nonetheless" Togami said
"So, you won right?" Ishizaki asked
"Ohh I did something better" I said
"Better, what did you do?" Akito asked
"heheheh, well....you could say I punished Kuroki for being a dumbass that challenged me to this ridiculous game" I replied
"Punished? ooooohhh, I'm getting goosebumps now" Kei said while excited
"What did you do to him?" Kiyotaka asked
"I made him play rock paper scissors with the injured hand' I replied
"Wait what?" Yukimura asked
"Hold on, that's it?" Hashimoto asked
"Ohh no it's not. In fact, let me rephrase about what I said. What I meant was I made him play rock paper fingers"
"Fingers? wait you mean..."
"That's right Hashimoto, if he loses. I cut his fingers off" As expected, almost everyone was shocked by this.
"Isn't that a bit too far?" Hikigaya asked
"Hey, who knows this Kuroki guy might've been torturing Katagiri's friend and forced Katagiri to play his twisted game, so I guess it's an eye for an eye I suppose." Akito said
"Yeah, but still..."
"Are you gonna let me finish the story or not?" I asked Yukimura who flinched a bit when I glared at him.
"Sorry" Yukimura became quiet again
"I made him play my game however I can only use paper or rock with the hand that was injured"
"Wait that means you have a disadvantage." Akito said
"Actually, this almost sounds similar to what Sora did with Horikita, except he only used paper and without the finger cutting portion of the rules. So Yuuichi obviously had a way to win" Kiyotaka explained
"Ohhh, I know what's going to happen, but I think you should continue" Kei said
"Okay so I had him play my game where if he loses, I get to cut his fingers depending on his choice. Rock for example will be none, scissors will allow me to cut two fingers, but if he chose paper and lose, I cut all 5 of those fingers"
"Hold on, it would be impossible for him not to choose paper most of the time since you only have two options, and it would be Kuroki's only option" Togami said
"That's right, I already know he was going paper no matter what. So, I used my other hand to use scissors and beat him"
"huh?"
"Wait isn't that cheating?" Yukimura asked
"What kind of a question is that? there's nothing in the rules that says he can't use a different hand. Yuuichi-kun knows that. He had only two options with his injured had but not the one that's not injured. Get me?" Kei explained
"I-I guess that makes sense"
"So, since you won that means..."
"His fingers are screwed" Albert who spoke in English cuts Ishizaki off
"So, did you really cut them?" Hashimoto asked
"I was about to but the injury on my hand got so severe that I passed out from blood loss"
I can hear groans and reliefs from the others. While Kei and Kiyotaka kept a straight face. *Phew* well that's done, good thing I left the part that all of this is because of some debt that I had back then.
"Well, that was an amazing story. Hey king, what do you think?" Hashimoto asked Kiyotaka, yes, he calls him king now. Kinda weird since all of that just stems from his t-rex.
"It was interesting I suppose" Kiyotaka replied
"Good can we go to sleep now?" I asked
