Joe's POV

"It's not poison gas, everyone. So please relax." An unfamiliar voice spoke. The gas faded, and in front of us, stood a woman in place of the mannequin. She had light brown hair tied in a ponytail, the ends curling in a very inhumane nature. Her red and yellow eyes had no pupils, and there was what looked like a melted golden crown on her head. She had a red and brown dress, and it looked like it was dipped in chocolate before it was put of her. Was that... her limbs I'd been carrying around?

"H... Huh?! Y... you're..." I couldn't talk. 'What... is happening?' "The doll?!"

"Heeheehee... Yes, I am the doll that you just rescued. Advanced, am I not?" She smiled, pleased with herself.

"Haaaaah?! The hell's goin' on here?!" Even Reko was at a loss for words.

"Ahaha. As it happens, I have revived to tell you what is happening, and support you through the trials and tribulations to come." The doll said.

"Stay away from me! You creepy-ass puppet!!" Reko staggered back.

"Ehehe. There's nothing to fear, you see? I will offer you all support..."

"Ah... oogh... oooh..." Nao looked like she wanted to say something. She sounded like Kanna when she was disoriented back in central hall.

"Ahaha... Sigh... Is there no one who can speak calmly here?" she asked with an amused expression.

'I wish I could...' I looked over at Sara. 'But I know who definitely can.'

"I'll ask. Just what are you?" Sara sighed.

"Tell the friendly policeman too. I'm not really following here." Keiji admitted.

'The fact that you're putting the word friendly in front of the word policeman makes people not want to take you seriously, Keiji.'

"Ehehe. Then we'll begin with my introduction..." The doll smiled. "Heehee. My name is Sue Miley, the Laughing Doll. I am the doll who will guide you on this floor. Ehee. My master has instructed me to guide you brave souls, who have already overcome several trials, to the Main Game."

"Your master... In other words, you're on the side of the kidnappers." Keiji finally said something useful.

"S... so you're our enemy?!" I exclaimed, pointing at her. "Don't try and say you're not!!"

"Ahaha... how very serious. Ahaha!" Miley just laughed.

"Stop laughin', asshole!! You wanna die?!" Reko said, bursting out her anger issues.

"Heehee... I'd rather not... No, I wouldn't like to be all torn up again..." Her smile didn't waver. It was a permanent smile that was plastered onto her fake doll face. "Ehee... heehee... I know... I just have to tear you up first..."

"Tear us up...?!" Reko fired back.

"Ahahaha. As a warning, yes..." She scanned all of us with her eyes. Once her heterochromic eyes met mine, we locked gazes as her grin spread wider.

There was a beeping noise, and my blood ran cold as my collar started to violently vibrate.

"...Wha?! M-my collar's... vibrating...!" I stared down at myself, as if I would be able to look at my own collar.

"Ehehe. Anyone will do, heehee. If it'll make you quiet..."

"W... what did you do?!" Sudden panic rose in me. My heart started beating faster.

"Eheehee, what indeed?" She raised an eyebrow with a smirk, clearly enjoying herself.

"Hey!! Answer me!!" I yelled.

"Ahaha, oh, very well." Miley looked at the floor for a second before turning back to me. "I'm just making your collar explode. Ahaha, ahah."

The skin on my arms went down in goosebumps. 'Making... my collar... explode...?' My arms started to shake and fall in a sweat as I clawed at the metal around my neck.

"H... Huh?! No way...?! Wha...?!" I didn't care if I was visibly panicking. I didn't care if I couldn't form proper sentences. I didn't care what everyone thought of me right now. I just wanted this collar off me! "Gh... Get it off... get this thing...!!"

"Ahaha! Get away, get away! It's dangerooous!" Miley laughed as everyone in the room crowded as far away from me as possible.

Due to my hands being slippery from sweat, I couldn't grab a proper hold of my collar. Closing my eyes, I gritted my teeth as I tried to get a hold of it.

'I need to get it off. I can't die right now. I have to make it out alive. I have to do this...'

A memory made itself loud and clear in my head.

"Well, we're gonna get out of here, okay? Together."

She looked at me. "Promise?" She asked.
"Promise." I nodded.

I couldn't keep that promise. My eyes stung, probably with tears, maybe not. I didn't care. What about Ryoko? What would happen if Sara walked out and told her friend I was dead? My collar started vibrating and beeping faster. Giving up completely, I let go of my collar and hoped for the worst. But nothing happened.

"Pant... pant... pant..." I calmed down my breathing, but it came in uncontrollable quivers. The beeping... was gone. Everything is okay. Am I dead?

"...That was a lie, of course. Eheehee... Did you enjoy it?" Miley giggled.

'Did I enjoy it?! Did I look like I enjoyed that, you stupid doll?!'

"A... a lie..." I gritted my teeth once again. Of course it was a lie. I was getting toyed around with. Having no control over my legs, I fell to the floor.

Sara's POV

"That collar can't actually explode, after all." Miley said, but I wasn't listening to her. Quietly walking over to Joe, I shook him. Placing two fingers on his neck, I found a pulse.

'He's alive.'

"Everything's going to be okay, Joe. Do you hear me?" I said quietly to him. No one was listening to me, since they were all gawking at Miley.

Joe didn't answer, so I stood up.

"...You piece of shit...!!" Reko cursed, enraged.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!" Miley laughed uncontrollably. Something was definitely wrong with her brain.

"Eheh... it's so funny, ahah, I can't, heehee, even talk, mweeheeheehee..." The doll giggled. We had a sadist on our hands.

"She's out of her mind, meow!" Gin seemed to be thinking the same thing.

'Out of her mind... or not human to begin with?' I looked over at Joe. 'But it seems we should do as she says...!'

"What's the Main Game?" I recalled Miley talking about a certain main game.

"You will soon undergo a great trial in order to escape outside." the doll answered. "As it has been prior, the superior will live, and the inferior will die - it is far from easy."

"One among you... will certainly die." She scanned the room. "And the person to die..." She looked like she was going to pick and chose someone right now, but she just smiled. "Shall be decided by your own majority vote."

"Eh...?" Kanna asked.

"I'm saying that you'll pick it yourselves." Miley clarified. "The one most unnecessary, hated, and acceptable to have to die."

I scanned the room myself. Everyone was necessary here. We didn't hate anyone. And I'm sure no one wanted death in this group.

"Stop talkin' nonsense...!!" Q-Taro shouted. "Like we're gonna do something like that!!"

"Ahaha. Then by all means, stave to death here, all of you." Miley smiled.

'I mean, we do have a chef to last couple of days.' I looked back at my stalker. He looked at me as well so I quickly turned back to Miley. 'He's still keeping watch on me here?! I'm going to go insane...'

"Woah, just laying it on the table." Keiji said.

'Pick... one of us? What... what is she saying?I can't comprehend...'

Not one of us could speak up anymore. We would kill one of these people, stuck in the same situation...? Who we considered our allies? Or else... we would be killed by them. Why... why doesn't this feel real...?

"Ahaha, don't look so pale everyone! I've got something good to hand out!" Miley smiled. Her smile didn't seem sincere like Sou's... or Joe's. Looking at Joe, I lightly shook him. He looked so pale as he opened him eyes. Shaking his head, he took some quivering, uneven breaths. Handing my hand out to him, he took it, almost dragging me down to the floor with him. Standing up, he rubbed his eyes tiredly and shook his head again, like a dog when it gets out of the water.

"Ahaha. Here, Sara Chidouin, have this tablet." she handed out the tablet in my direction. I didn't even want to question how she knew my name. They probably had files on all of us and all our weak points.

"Does everyone have one now? Let us test the functionality with some actual use." Miley grinned. "When voting, if you know who voted who, it turns into a quarrel, doesn't it? Eheehee... Thus, by voting with these tablets, you won't know who made what vote. Ehehe. As a test, try voting for whoever!"

I swallowed. It seemed easy enough. 'It's just a test, nothing bad was going to happen, right?'

Looking at the tablet, all our eleven faces appeared. I let out a light breath. 'It's just a test. I'll vote for myself.'

I clicked on the square that had my face on it.

Vote for Sara Chidouin? The tablet asked. Clicking yes, the tablet shut off. Looking at other people, everyone was suspiciously looking at one another before clicking on their own tablet.

The tablet lit up again.

"Oh my... it appears a bit one-sided." Professor Mishima spoke. "Hm... So this is a tablet for voting..."

"Ahaha. Is there something you want to say?" Miley raised her eyebrows and sweetly smiled. Her smile made my stomach twist.

"...If you were human, I suppose there would be. Something like, 'cease this, if you have a heart'." He said, a bit nervously.

"Eheehee. Unfortunately, I do not." she continued smiling.

"A pity..."

"Ehehe. More importantly, are you sure?" Miley batted her long and thick eyelashes.

"Hmm?" the professor was probably not sure about whatever Miley meant.

A beep went off and a vibration started buzzing through the room. Joe let an uneven breath out.

"Do you really want those to be your last words?" Miley's voice echoed throughout the room as everyone went silent. All eyes were trained on the professor.

"...What are you doing...?" the vibrations started going off again. My heartrate picked up as I backed into a wall.

Miley didn't say anything, but looked at the professor in an amusing way.

"It won't explode... will it...?" he said unsurely.

"Ahaha, no, it won't explode..." Miles shook her head. I sensed there was a 'but' coming in that sentence.

"What did you say?"

"P... professor...?" Nao said worriedly.

"Eheehee. Aheh, aheehahaha...!" Miley's laugh crackled.

"...?! It's hot...!!" Mishima shouted. "Gaaah...! My neck...!!"

His collar visibly changed color.

'Look away. Close your eyes. Look away.' But I couldn't. I stood, dumbfounded as the professor screamed in agony.

"Aaaah...!! AHHHHHHHHHH...!!"

As if on instinct, I grabbed Joe by his arm and wrapped my hands around it, as if it would cause me some kind of protection. Joe didn't seem to mind or even notice.

"It burns...!! AHHHHH...!!"

"Professor!! PROFESSOOOOOOOOOOR!!!" Nao screamed.

'Professor Mishima...!!' A smell lingered in the air. A smell I'd never experienced before... The smell of human flesh burning... And the sound of blood evaporating...

"Take it off!!" Q-Taro yelled. "Take it off, old man!"

"G... Gaaaaah...!!" Mishima didn't seem to hear him, he was so focused on his burning neck.

"NOOOOOOOOOO!! PROFESSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!!!" Nao screamed, trying to run to her professor. The person that seemed to be holding her back was caught off-guard, because Nao ran straight to him.

"Stay away!!" Professor Mishima pushed Nao away. And with that, he fell backward in front of Kanna.

"Help!! The professor!! The professor's going to die!!"

"D-Don't! If you touch that collar...!!" Joe yanked his hand away from my grasp and ran toward Nao to hold her back, just in case.

Keiji had a troubled and disappointed look on his face. And then the professor... stopped moving at all..."

"Professor!! PROFESSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!!!" Nao yelled, running over to him. Joe didn't seem to be holding her that hard.

"Hee... heehee, heeahahaha...!! Bwaha...!" we didn't need to turn around to know what kind of inhumane creature was laughing.

"Ahhhhh... sniff... ahhh...!!" Kanna looked scared and bewildered.

"Hahahahahaha!! How unladylike. You wet yourself?" Miley laughed, as if a traumatized teen girl wouldn't wet herself if she saw someone toppling over and dying at her feet.

"Sniff... A... Awful... Why would you do this...?!"

'That's the most terrible thing... Miley didn't do anything. We did this.' I couldn't look at the corpse of professor Mishima on the ground.

"You've learned what a majority vote means from the experience, haven't you?"

'Awful. This is too awful... It wasn't an instant pain. He burned at length... And unable to even writhe... he died...'

"Everyone... everyone's a good person here...!! How could you do this...?! What did we do?!" Kanna yelled at the doll. "I won't let this stand...!!"

"Heehee... heeheehee... You annoy me you powerless little girl... No." a shadow crossed over her eyes as she smiled. "You sister-killer."

'Stop.'

"I... I..." Kanna looked at the verge of tears.

"Hahaha, I saw all of it. How miserable you were in your First Trial, Kanna."

'Don't trample on her. On Professor Mishima's concern for Kanna. On the words he left her.'

"Your actions killed your sister." Miley was still grinning.

'Don't trample all over Kanna's heart!!!'

I shut my eyes. There had been a clang. A very loud one. Opening my eyes, blood trickled from under her bangs. What happened?

"Gah..." Miley wasn't smiling anymore. For the first time her smile had wavered.

"Forgive me. The hand with the frying pan must have slipped." someone said.

I stopped, turning around to confirm. Kai tilted his head to the side, a finger lay on his chin. The man who I'd been afraid of, my stalker, had thrown a frying pan at a doll. Or... what we thought was a doll.

"You little...!!" Miley's words spat out like poison.

"So even dolls bleed red." Kai said calmly.

"...Don't think you can do this... and just get away with it scot-free...!!"

"On the contrary... I ask that you don't think you'll be getting away with as little as this." Kai's eyebrows furrowed, saying every word pronounced with spite. There was... anger in his brown eyes. "I will have you pay for toying with people's lives."

"Dammit!! Damn it!! I'll remember this!!" Miley said furiously. "I'll be waiting... on the grounds of the Main Game...!"

"Are you alright?" Kai asked Kanna. I normally wouldn't trust Kai with children, but... I don't understand. Professor Mishima's death... Nor who Kai is... But... Yes... Even if what awaits is us killing each other by majority vote... However cruel a future it is... I can't... I can't go dying yet...!

A/N: Miley got really pissed off. She killed everyone. The end. Kai was first because you don't hit frying pans with people. 

Wait no I just woke up and wrote it the other way on accident. I was supposed to write you don't hit people with frying pans. Oh well, now you can look at that and have a laugh. You need it. 

It's a Lolbit Show
