blood match night two



midnight

20 players remaining

At midnight, all is quiet when suddenly, there's a loud rumbling. If you're outside, anywhere on one of the islands, you'll see a red plume in the air as the zone zero volcano erupts. It's once, quickly, but enough to send a plume of smoke in the air that casts a bright red light over the arena.

Then there's silence again, before a voice reads the following names, audible from any point on the island:

Yona
Yugi
Craig Tucker

Twenty players remaining.

[Mayu peers down at him from the roof of the cabin with a small smile. Her fingernails dig into the palms of her hands.]

I'm doing my best to deserve that faith.

[Which is why she's staying right where she is, at least until the craving for blood passes.]

[He can't tell what she's doing, but he can tell she's struggling with something. He no longer believes she's insincere, though that only increases his distaste. Needy, desperate for validation, a liability but one that could have a use.

He pushes it just a little further.]

I know. To be honest, I don't know if I can keep Tamaki and I safe on my own. We're relying on you for our lives now...we need you.

...you need me...?

[It's a wonderful thing, to be needed. Mayu looks so happy that she might cry - no, she is crying. She brings up a hand to wipe tears from her eyes.]

Then I'll do my best. I'll definitely protect you, I promise!

[He mostly feels pride, a sense of superiority. It feels good to indulge in the sensation of controlling someone; he's vaguely curious how much more he could manage. Could he turn her against Jack?

Probably not, Tamaki will interfere before it goes that far. Oh well. This isn't a game or an arena to test his abilities, anyway. Mayu is still a risk, but he'll let this lie for now.]

Thank you. I'll do my best for you, too.

[Rude, Kyouya. But it's not like Mayu hasn't been trying (and failing) to manipulate people this entire time, so... you reap what you sow, basically.]

I'm so glad to hear that...

[And she is. She's really, truly happy - and it's written all over her face.]
