WEEK ZERO: REMOVAL

[retellers]

WEEK ZERO: REMOVAL (41 remain) Time to wake up, participants of the Realm. At 8am, everyone will receive a message on their PHS. Please be at the plaza by 9am. Even if the participants ignore the message (or are sleeping in, shame on them), as 9am approaches they will fall victim to a compulsion to head to the specified location. Three Leaders, Fox, Rabbit, and Wolf, are already present, Virid with them. Wolf (again) speaks. "... Everyone's here now, so we'll learn what needs to be done soon." Once they finish speaking, an alert goes off from a PHS in the crowd—specifically, Yona's. Her PHS displays a simple message. You have been selected to remove Virid Visette Viridian. Regardless of her will, she will feel compelled to walk towards the scene. No other participant will be able to interfere; should they try, a barrier blocks their way.

You've already seen that the barrier isn't going to let any of us through.

[ Her own gaze flashes, her voice sharpening. ]

And I don't want to see you get hurt when it won't amount to anything.

[exercisms]

I won't be hurt.

[He really won't be. What are a few fists, some scraped knuckles? That's nothing.]

The ones who will be hurt are Viridian-san and Yona-san, if they think we didn't try to fight for them. Even now, you're worried about me, but don't they deserve it, too?

[misstrust]

...

[ Softly-- ]

Do you think I'm not worried about them?

[exercisms]

Ah -

[Oh, no. Well, he'll stop for a minute.]

No, I don't think that. You're a kind person.

[misstrust]

[ Her lips quirk faintly; it's an almost bitter smile. ]

Believe me, I hate this as much as you do. And I'm sure they know that too.

[exercisms]

Mm. But. . .

[He thinks Yona must know, but does Virid?]

[misstrust]

Virid knows how most of us feel, I'm sure of it.
