night seven - kill log

[guestcontrol]

Who: Killers and Belgium
What: only one day before retirement
When: The seventh night
Where: The park...

[It's in the dead of the night when Belgium's door abruptly unlocks. Her bracelet begins to beep. Something seems to be calling her, ordering her to leave her room. For every moment she delays, it beeps with more and more urgency, especially if he tries to bring anything. And besides, she feels groggy, not inclined to protest much.

As she steps outside, lights illuminate the path. The lights lead into the park. As soon as she steps through the door into the park, the door slams shut. It won't open for her again, and pounding on the door or calling for help will not yield any results. It's only once inside that the grogginess wears off.

You can run or try to hide, but there's not much use to it. Your bracelet is still beeping, the only obvious sound in the darkness. And though you're not restrained, you'll find there's no way you can strike a blow against the killers; the bracelet will tighten and you'll feel the grogginess return if you try to fight back.]

[ He shakes his head ]

We're not to do things as simple as that. It makes making up too difficult. These methods are... brutal, but it's to help you when you wake up.

[ He says it casually, like it obvious, then cocks the gun ]

Now, get in.

[belgian]

[Belgium stares at him for a long moment before she gets in. Dying drugged an because of that bracelet forcing her is the worse fate, in her opinion.]

[ He nods, then sets the gun on the ground, well out of her reach, since he's ever cautious and doesn't want it hanging in his jacket where she could grab it. Ciel moves closer to grab that noose, which he slips over her head. ]

...For what it's worth, we did not wish to be so cruel. But we must.

[ At which point he'll stand and grab the gun he had set down. ]

[belgian]

[Belgium reaches up to feel the noose, and fear coils in her gut. It's been there the whole time, but before it was a bit easier to ignore. She expends most of her willpower keeping it from showing on her face.]

If you're really waking everyone up, what happens to you at the end if you win?

[cheats]

[ Ciel turns the gun over in his hands thoughtfully, and it seems like he won't answer, but really, there is more mercy and softness in him than he'd like to admit. He doesn't say much, but it's simple. ]

Then I'll find out who murdered my family. I will avenge them, and then I will die.

[ He doesn't explain why, or the extent to which his "death" was so much more than that, but he has no wish to. He points the gun at her again, then shoots, bullet going into her shoulder. ]

I am sorry. I hope you wake up peacefully.

[ At which point Ciel will turn away to go into the booth to start the ride, but it will take him a bit longer to do so. ]
