Killer: The Yandere [A.k.a. Maruki Tatsugaki]
Killer: The Yandere [A.k.a. Maruki Tatsugaki]
Chapter Name: LoveSick
Weapon: LoveStruck Kitchen Knife
Map: Tsugima High School
Lore: Maruki was a normal girl. Her life was normal in every way shape or form she had a good friend group, good grades and a good life. She even had a crush on a boy named Tayo Mikami.
Her life went downhill after a horrific accident. The home invasion left her hospitalized and orphaned. She never thought that she would be able to survive, but someone was there for her Tayo. Every day he would visit her hospital room and read her books, help her catch up on assignments so her grades wouldn’t slip, and talk to her so she didn't get lonely. The operations were hell but he gave her the strength and motivation to keep going. He was her lifeboat. He was her Gāojì de.
Over the rest of the duration of her school year, her small crush on this boy became something more than that. He was the only one of the people that she surrounded herself with who stuck by her side so closely. Her other friends had casually visited her every now and then but never as routinely as he did. He was there for her and her darkest moments. And now she was alone to be taken care of by an aunt that showed little to no interest in her life. All she had left was her friends and Tayo…he was there for her every day after she got out of the hospital. He was there for her to help her readjust.
Over time her love for him became Something bigger, something obsessive. It transferred from a schoolyard crush to a need for a year. she felt physically sick without him, The days that he wouldn't come to school she felt weak and tired. She decided that day that this meant that they were meant to be. He was meant to be hers. He stood by her side throughout all of her troubles and she just needed him to be there for the rest of her life. But before she had the chance to take what was rightfully hers she noticed things about girls around him. She noticed that people really liked Tayo…like….like liked him…they wanted him…. But they didn't need him like she did, she needed him. He was her medicine, her painkiller, her life support…. If she didn't get him she didn't want to think about what would happen to her…but she was completely fine with thinking about what was going to happen to these girls.
So she started dealing with them. Anytime a girl would come along she would find a way to get rid of them. Whether this involved killing them or just making sure that her precious Tayo stopped loving them. It all came to a head whenever she faced her biggest target, her biggest foil. Her best friend Toāmin. Another friend that was there for her when she was going through her recovery. She didn't want to hurt her friend. But her friend was playing a dangerous game getting in between her and her one true love Maruki has spent too long trying to get him to let anything get in her way, even her friend. To avoid killing her though she decided to kidnap her. And that is when Maruki decided now was a best time to confess.
She waited too long and she got closer to Tayo. And after her confession, she would explain to Toāmin why she did all of this so a good friend would understand.…she invited him to her classroom after school. And she did it. She poured her heart out and gave the best confession that she could make but it was meant by a swift and soul-crushing rejection...Tayo was afraid of Maruki getting hurt due to all the disappearances that had been surrounding him. He told her that every girl that has shown interest in him has died or disappeared and he was afraid of it happening to her next…Maruki was beyond crushed and destroyed. Her own actions and her own quest have led her to this outcome…. This rage turned into a complete breakdown as Maruki decided if she couldn't have him no one could…she managed to pull out her knife and stab Tayo in the stomach but before she was able to land the finishing blow ending his life and then soon her own. She was attacked from behind by Toāmin. Her best friend had struck her in the back of the head with a chair. Everything became an empty haze in her mind. It became foggy and dizzy. What snapped her out of it was the sound of her love being taken away from her by her friend to the person that she trusted… She got up quickly and ran into the hallway seeing Taōmin escorting Tayo down the hall away from her. Maruki gave Chase to them giggling incessantly and being completely broken. But the Hall of the school began to distort into a fog. She could see the glimpses of her love and her former best friend down the hall but the fog was making it harder and harder for her to see them.
Soon she realized that she wasn't in the school anymore, she was in a forest…with a quick breath, she quickly turned around and saw a campfire. She saw Tayo and Taōmin holding each other at the campfire…she felt a strong wrath and rage consume her but a greater force above her told her it wasn't time yet…so she waited until she could chase her obsession once again…
