"Mafumafu!", Soraru shouted as he ran towards him but it was too late. "There is someone behind you." Those words echoed in their minds.

They all looked behind them but there was no one. Amatsuki felt his legs becoming weak and sunk down in the floor. "...I will look if there is someone.", Soraru said.

"Hey... What do you think happened to him? Below...", Amatsuki asked.

"It's better not to look Ama-chan...", Kashitaro said as he took him be his hand rubbed his back. Kashitaro went outside incase Soraru needed help leaving Amatsuki alone in the classroom.

Amatsuki sobbed sadly and Soraru and Kashitaro looked around for a person when they suddenly heard Amatsuki shouting.

"What happened, Amatsuki?", Kashitaro asked worriedly. "There is a gh-gh-ghost! The ghost of Mafumafu!", Amatsuki stuttered out as he pointed at Mafumafu. "Ah, sorry. I'm still alive.", Mafumafu apologized as they all looked at him with an "Are you serious"-Look.

Mafumafu sat on a panda still alive. And stepped down on the edge of the window thanking the panda. "Thank you, Panda-san. You're a lifesaver.", Mafumafu thanked it.

The panda walked away and they all looked at him before Amatsuki lunged at Mafumafu crying out loud. "Thank goodness you're alright! What would we have done if you died?", Amatsuki sobbed loudly and Kashitaro had to pull Amatsuki away so Mafumafu could breath again.

"Air...", Mafumafu took deep breaths. "That's what you deserve for making us worry.", Soraru said. "Awww, was Soraru-san worried about me?", Mafumafu teased.

"Of course. Everyone was." Soraru answered making Mafumafu blush slightly.

"I-is that so? Of course you would! What would you do anyway if this angel here would die?", Mafumafu out his hands on his hips puffing out his chest proudly. "Anyway, did we clear this stage?", Mafumafu asked.

"Usually, we should get the Chromosome but we didn't get it.", Soraru said. "Guys... what is this smell? It's like something is burning.", Amatsuki said. "It didn't smell this way just now. Is there a fire?", Kashitaro asked.

"What happened?", Sakata asked as the screen turned black. "Well, there is a malfunction. I think it should switch up to the backup monitor soon.", Retrodot said and it did.

"Ah it's on. Who is that?", Shima asked and they all looked at it. "It's no good. We tried many times but it still wants Mafumafu. So what do we do now? Change it's condition?", Soraru asked.

"I've had enough... I wanna go home.", Amatsuki said tears in the corner of his eyes. "It will be fine, Ama-chan! I am here!", Kashitaro said.

"Are they always like this?", Soraru asked after watching them for a bit.

"Not really. Only when they do a horror let's play together which is really rare because Amatsuki hates horror. But when they do they act exactly like that.", Mafumafu explained.

"Great... now we can— Eh?", Soraru halted and looked straight behind Mafumafu. "What is it, Soraru-san?", Mafumafu asked. "You were right. There was someone behind us.", Soraru said pointing behind Mafumafu.

They all turned there and like Soraru said there was a black person sitting in one of the seats. "Where did you come from?!", Amatsuki screeched. They all stood there warily before Mafumafu decided to walk up to her. "Oi!", Soraru looked at Mafumafu who ignored him and walked towards her.

"Are you the Oujia Board?", Mafumafu asked her and she quietly shook her head in response. "Then who are you?", Mafumafu asked keeping his nice voice but instead of answering she took his arm and looked at him from her hollow eyes instead. "Thank you for the water.", she thanked him.

"You're welcome.", he smiled at her casually. "Will you be my friend?", she asked him. "Sure.", he accepted. "I'm glad. Then... Will you come with me? Let's burn together. Will you... die together with me?", she asked grinning at him.

"Hey... if you stay like this you'll quickly forget about me. You'll be a liar.", she said crying flames suddenly surrounding her.

"She is burning. Get away from her Mafu!", Amatsuki shouted but instead of doing that he stepped closer to her. "I'll be your friend. I can't be together with you yet but... I will make a promise with you. And I've never broken a promise with anyone before. After everything is over I'll... Promise.", Mafumafu promised her.

"01 Chromosome...", Soraru held the thin glass up looking at it. "So we have to collect those Chromosomes?", Mafumafu, who sat next to Soraru, asked eating his food.

"Don't you dare to lose that! I don't want to go through that again.", Amatsuki said as he sat down. "It wasn't that bad, right Soraru?", Kashitaro asked him as he sat down as well next to Amatsuki. "Hey, Mafumafu?", Amatsuki said.

"What is it?", Mafumafu perked up. "What did you say to that girl at the very end?", Amatsuki asked. "I was wondering about that as well.", Kashitaro said. Soraru just narrowed his eyes and kept eating his food. He had an idea about what he could have said already. "Hmm? I did? I already forgot about it.", Mafumafu confessed as he smiled at them.

Stage 2 CLEAR
000053443

"The 3rd Stage is a love and nurturing simulation. Heart-Throbbing Murasaki no Ue. Please raise the girl born from this egg and successfully win the heart of the school idol Genji Hikaru-san.

This time there will be a minimum of four players participating which you can choose on your own.", Retrodot explained everything.

"If it's nurturing games then shouldn't Amatsuki do this?", Senra asked. "Eh? Me again? I don't want to...", Amatsuki said looking away.

"But Ama-chan, it won't be scary this time and it's your favorite genre. You can take this experience you put into video games into real life.", Kashitaro tried to convince him. "If you say it like that then I think I can do it!", Amatsuki said.

"That's the spirit! I'll go as well!", Kashitaro said. "Eh? You too?", Sakata asked.

"Yep. Because Ama-chan is participating I want to support him and spend some time with him as well.", Kashitaro explained making Amatsuki blush slightly. "A-anyway! Who else wants to participate?", Amatsuki asked.

"I'll pass.", Urata said making Sakata perk up. "Ehhhh? I wanted to do this with you!", Sakata pouted. "Then do it. You won't need me for this.", Urata said. "But! I heard that you streamt with Shima and Senra already! I wanna do something with you too! Please! Pwetty pwease!", Sakata pleaded giving him puppy eyes.

"Then it's decided. The ones participating are Sakata, Urata, Kashitaro and Amatsuki. Is everyone fine with this?", Soraru asked and everyone except Urata shouted yes.

"Oi!", Urata shouted in protest but Soraru interrupted him before he could say anything further. "Mafumafu, that's too long. I'll call you Mafu from now on.", Soraru said making Mafumafu blush a bit.

"Eh? S-sure.", he accepted. "So anyway, Mafu and me cleared a stage already and Sakata wants to do this with you and because Shima and Senra don't really want to participate as well we choose you because this choice will make most people happy.", Soraru explained.

"...Fine. But I will not participate in the next game willingly.", Urata sighed.

"So it's decided. We will— Sakata don't move.", Urata ordered. Sakata looked at him in confusion but stood still. Urata hit something from Sakata's head that looked like the head of Retrodot. "What the heck is that?!", Urata asked.

"That is a dotcamera. They are photographic robots that live all over District 4. They are like surveillance cameras.", Retrodot explained. "Wow! I wanna look at it. Give it to me!", Mafumafu said as Urata kicked it up to him.

Soraru looked it in interest as well. "So their eyes are lenses...", Soraru noticed.

"Oh yes... concerning the Genome Tower and the facilities in town, you may use both of them freely. However... the tower's 51st floor and above is off limits. Since violators will receive punishment, please listen to this rule.", Retrodot warned them. "Then I'll go explore the tower.", Soraru said. "I'll go with you!", Mafumafu declared.

"I won't take the blame for anything that'll happen to you.", Soraru muttered. "Ehhh? Are we doing something dangerous?", Mafumafu asked. Soraru walked to Urata who looked at him in confusion. "What is it?", Urata asked.

"Could you lend me something?", Soraru asked. "What do you want?", Urata asked in curiosity. "You said that when it comes to stealth and escape games you don't limit yourself to only games. So I thought you might have it.", Soraru said.

"Are you playing so many mystery games that you talk in riddles as well? I get it. Here! You owe me a favor.", Urata said as he threw the object at Soraru who caught it. "Thanks. You can ask me for a favor next time.", Soraru said as he walked away with Mafumafu questioning what it was.

"Hey, Senra. I found an open air bath on the 30th floor. Wanna go with me there?", Shima asked him. "...Why?", Senra asked.

"It's not like you have anything else to do right now, right? We could get to know each other better as well and we could relax.", Shima said. "Then I'll take you up on that offer.", Senra accepted.

"Great! Then let's go!", Shima shouted as he put his arm around Senra's shoulder pushing him forward leaving the other four behind.

"What a huge egg.", Amatsuki remarked placing his hand on it. "Let's help Murasaki grow into a wonderful woman.", Kashitaro smiled placing his hand on the egg as well.

"Yes!". They all helped carrying the egg inside the cottage. "I will make dinner now so try to warm the egg up.", Amatsuki instructed them.

"Do you think we could put the egg into a microwave to warm it up?", Sakata asked. "Are you an idiot? Wouldn't it explode if you put it into a microwave?", Urata said.

"What should we name the egg? Do you think we should just give it a random name?", Sakata asked. "Don't!", Amatsuki shouted and they all looked at him. For the first time they've seen Amatsuki glare at him. "If we create a random name it will be funny at first but we'll regret it later on.

Nurturing games are games which show how much you care about them. Depending on how much money and time you spend for them will show the growth of your kid. So I want you to take care of this egg as if your life depends on it! Even if it kills you!", Amatsuki said.

"How caring. You'll become a wonderful mother when you grow up, Ama-chan!", Sakata complimented him.

"Mother?!", Amatsuki asked shocked. "Anyway, shouldn't we warm the egg up?", Kashitaro asked. "Ah, yes! Let's hug it to give it more warmth and pray for it's health. I hope you grow into a healthy young girl.", Amatsuki prayed.

"And if that doesn't go well we will make you into omelette, custard pudding, cake, tamagoyaki, ham and eggs or carbonara...", Sakata prayed.

"Oi! Don't tell what you want to eat!", Urata glared at them. One hour later Sakata and Amatsuki sat on the ground tiredly when they noticed the egg beginning to crack.

"Quick, everyone tell their preferred type of girl.", Amatsuki instructed them. "Huh? Why should we?", Urata asked.

"The manual said it will consider the breeder's preferences. If everyone tells their ideal type then I think she will make an incredible girl.", Amatsuki explained. "Feels like a night in a school trip.", Sakata exclaimed happily.

"Quick. It will hatch soon.", Amatsuki said. "Whatever, just a normal girl.", Urata thought. "I hope she'll become a healthy girl.", Amatsuki prayed. "I wonder what a kid between me and Amatsuki would look like?", Kashitaro thought.

"Now that I look at Ura-san... he is pretty short. He kinda reminds me of a tanuki.", Sakata noticed and after all of their thoughts the egg cracked open making the shards fly everywhere and a girl slowly stepped out of the egg.

They all looked at her and stayed silent and stunned until someone decided to speak up. "What the actual heck is that?".
