Reborn as an Yandere : Yandere X Yandere

The Nightmare Begins (Re)



Some Time Ago…  

In the academy corridors, outside a random classroom, Ethan was chatting casually with Sylvania, Emma, and Violet.  

They were having a lighthearted conversation when Violet suddenly frowned, tilting her head as she looked at Ethan.  

"Ethan, why does your face look so heavy? Like you haven't slept for days?" she asked, concern in her voice.  

"Yeah, I noticed it too!" Sylvania added, crossing her arms.  

Ethan hesitated for a moment before sighing. "Actually, there's this girl who keeps stalking me. She won’t let me rest at all. She’s been a pain in the ass for the past few days."  

"A stalker?" Emma gasped. "You should have reported her long ago—"  

Before she could finish, a chilling voice suddenly echoed through the hallway.  

"Ethan…!"  

The voice was feminine yet filled with anger and obsession.  

All four of them turned toward the source of the voice.  

There she was—Caramel, Ethan’s stalker.  

Her appearance was a mess. Her long hair was tangled and unkempt, her uniform was wrinkled, and there was a wild, desperate look in her wide eyes, as if she had completely lost her mind.  

She stared directly at Ethan, her expression twisted with rage.  

"What are you doing here with a bunch of girls? Are you cheating on me?" she demanded.  

The three girls exchanged glances, and in that brief moment, they all understood—**this** was the stalker Ethan had been talking about.  

Emma, always the bold one, stepped forward without hesitation.  

"Hey, cut your crap! You’re not his girlfriend or anything! It's time to wake up to reality!" she snapped.  

Caramel's expression darkened. Her hands clenched into fists, her body shaking with anger.  

"Shut… up… shut up! You don’t know anything!" she shrieked.  

Then, without warning—  

She lunged forward and swung her fist straight at Emma’s face.  

Emma barely had time to react. She raised her arms to block the punch, but the sheer force behind it was overwhelming.  

**BAM!**  

The impact sent Emma flying backward. She tumbled across the floor, skidding nearly ten steps before slamming into the hard wall behind her.  

A sharp gasp left her lips as pain shot through her body. She coughed, and a small trickle of blood dripped from the corner of her mouth.  

"Such raw power…" Emma muttered, her hands shaking slightly as she wiped the blood off her lips.  

"This girl has lost her mind! Stop her!" Sylvania yelled, quickly turning to run. "I'll inform the teachers!"  

Ethan clenched his fists, ready to step forward, but before he could move, Violet grabbed his arm.  

"No need, Ethan. I'll handle her," Violet said, a confident smirk on her lips.  

"And me too!"  

Emma, despite the pain, pushed herself back up. She wiped her lips again, her eyes burning with determination.  

Bam! Boom! Slam!  

The sound of fists clashing, feet stomping, and mana colliding filled the hallway.  

Emma, Violet, and Caramel were locked in a fierce battle. Sparks of energy flashed in the air as Caramel unleashed her mana, forcing Emma and Violet to use theirs as well.  

Even though Caramel's strength kept increasing, it still wasn’t enough to defeat both Emma and Violet at the same time.  

Soon, she started losing ground, but she refused to back down.  

"All of you, attack them!" Caramel shouted.  

Suddenly, dozens of students appeared from nowhere, rushing toward them with deadly intent.  

"What? Why are these students with her?" Ethan gasped, his eyes widening in shock.  

Without hesitation, the students attacked, their eyes filled with an eerie, murderous look. It was as if they had lost control of themselves.  

Ethan clenched his fists. He had no choice but to join the fight.  

"Wait… Serii too? She’s my friend! Why is she with them?" Violet's face turned pale as she recognized one of her classmates among the attackers.  

"Don't tell me… she can actually control people?" Emma muttered, her eyes narrowing as she dodged a punch from a chubby boy and countered with her own fist.  

Caramel grinned, her eyes gleaming with madness.  

"Not enough. Everyone, come out!" she yelled.  

A massive horde of students suddenly appeared, charging toward them like wild beasts.  

Ethan’s heart pounded.  

"This is bad… really bad," he thought.  

"We… we can’t fight all of them!" he shouted. "Let’s retreat and wait for the teachers to come!"  

Without wasting time, he grabbed Emma’s wrist and pulled her back. Violet followed as they ran down the corridor, trying to escape the overwhelming number of enemies.  

But no matter where they ran, the controlled students chased them relentlessly.  

Caramel, on the other hand, stood behind, watching everything with an unsettling smirk.  

In the middle of the chaos, the three of them got separated.  

Ethan ran through the hallways, his breath heavy. He had no idea where Emma or Violet had gone. But soon, he found himself in the academy gardens—and there, he saw Sylvania.  

And next moment, Emma got there too.

His heart pounded harder.  

Something was wrong.  

He rushed toward her. "Sylvania! Did you see Violet?"  

Sylvania’s face showed concern. "Yeah, We met. She was with me a little while ago, but then she suddenly disappeared! I thought she went to you!"  

Ethan's stomach dropped.  

"Shit… shit… shit…" His mind fell into chaos.  

"Don’t tell me she got kidnapped… even after all my efforts?!" He clenched his fists, feeling helpless and frustrated.  

"Calm down!" Sylvania snapped. "Panicking won’t help!"  

She took a deep breath, then quickly came up with a plan.  

"What if she’s still around somewhere? I’ll check the academy dorms. Ethan, you search the garden, hallways, and backyard area. Emma, you go inside the academy building. And be careful of Caramel and her minions!"  

Ethan and Emma nodded without hesitation.  

Without wasting another second, they split up to find Violet.

-------------

In the academy cafeteria, Maruti was enjoying her lunch with great satisfaction. Dozens of plates were already empty in front of her, showing just how big her appetite was. She ate as if she hadn’t had a proper meal in years.  

The cafeteria was filled with students, all eating peacefully and chatting among themselves.  

"Hah... I should eat as much as I can before the horde of monsters comes!" Maruti thought as she stuffed more food into her mouth.  

But what she didn’t know was that something very disturbing was happening right there in the cafeteria.  

A few tables away, a very thin boy with a body like a skeleton was also eating. His hollow cheeks and bony frame made him look weak, but the way he devoured his food was unnatural.  

"I'm hungry... not enough... not enough..." the boy muttered to himself as he kept eating.  

Even though he looked like he could barely stand, he was eating even more than Maruti. Plate after plate disappeared into his mouth, and strangely, his body started growing.  

But something was off—only his height was increasing. No matter how much he ate, he didn’t gain any fat or muscle.  

Maruti blinked as she watched him. "Am I seeing things? Why does he look so weird?"  

Just as she was thinking that something was wrong, the boy suddenly slammed his hands on the table and screamed.  

"I SAID I'M HUNGRY!!!"  

His neck stretched unnaturally, like a giraffe. Then, his mouth opened wide—wider than any human should be able to.  

Inside his mouth, his teeth were not normal. They were round, like the sharp rings of a worm’s mouth.  

And then, in one horrifying moment, he lunged forward and swallowed the head of a nearby girl in a single bite.  

Blood splattered everywhere. The girl's body slumped to the ground, lifeless.  

Screams filled the cafeteria.  

"Ahhhhhh!" Students panicked and started running in all directions, desperately trying to escape.  

"He... he just turned into a monster!" someone shouted in terror.  

Chairs were knocked over, food spilled onto the floor, and people pushed and shoved to get out.  

Amidst the chaos, one girl was trying to pull her friend along.  

"Hey, Zei! What are you doing? Get up and run, or we’ll die here!" she pleaded, gripping her friend’s wrist.  

But Zei didn’t move. She sat there with her face buried in the table, her arms wrapped around herself. Her whole body trembled.  

"So shy... I’m feeling so shy... Everyone is looking at me... Don’t look... don’t look!" Zei kept whispering to herself.  

"Zei! I know you’re always shy, but this isn’t the time for that! We have to run!" her friend begged, shaking her.  

Then, Zei suddenly lifted her head.  

Her friend gasped in horror.  

Zei’s face was completely distorted.  

Her eyes were not where they should be—they were on her cheeks.  

Her nose was on her chin.  

And worst of all, her mouth was on her forehead.  

A terrible, twisted smile spread across her face as she stared at her friend.  

"I said... DON’T LOOK AT ME!"  

In an instant, her friend felt the world flip upside down.  

No—it wasn’t the world.  

Her head had twisted 90 degrees, turning completely upside down.  

Thud!  

Her body collapsed onto the floor, lifeless.  

She was dead. There was no doubt about it.  

At this point, it was clear.  

Both the thin boy and Zei had turned into monsters.  

The thin boy had transformed into the terrifying Worm Headman.  

And Zei had awakened as The Shy Girl.

Maruti didn’t waste a single second—she turned around and ran straight out of the cafeteria.  

"What the hell just happened?" she thought, trying to process the horror she had just witnessed.  

Before she could think any further, a sharp, loud noise suddenly rang through the entire academy.  

Beep!… Beep!… Beep!…

The sirens echoed through the air, piercing through every hallway, every classroom, and even beyond the academy walls.  

It wasn’t just the academy—this alarm was blaring across the entire city.  

Students who had been resting in their dorms rushed out in panic. Some had confusion written all over their faces, while others already had their weapons drawn, their instincts telling them that something terrible was happening.  

Then, a powerful voice echoed from the magical announcement system.  

"All students, listen carefully!"

The voice belonged to Vice Principal Lilith Maranthia.  

"A massive tide of monsters is heading toward us. An S-rank level formation has appeared, covering a large portion of land. We can’t run away. Our communication systems are down, which means there is definitely a traitor among us.  

Right now, we have no choice but to fight until we can restore communication and call for reinforcements!"  

The message ended, leaving behind an eerie silence.  

And then—chaos erupted.  

Many students gasped in shock. Others clenched their fists, feeling adrenaline rush through their veins.  

"So... the monsters are finally here?" Maruti thought as she hurried through the academy’s ground floor hallway.  

All around her, students were running, their faces pale and filled with fear.  

Then, her eyes landed on a fat student who was also trying to run. But… he was just too slow.  

Of course, fat people weren’t usually fast, but this guy was unbelievably slow.  

Even a toddler would be ten times faster than him.  

It was as if time itself was dragging him down.  

Sweat was pouring down his face, soaking his clothes so much that he looked like someone had dumped a bucket of water on him.  

A boy ran past him, laughing.  

"Run faster, fatty! Hahaha!" he said, kicking the fat student’s back before running ahead.  

But then—something strange happened.  

After just a few more steps, the boy’s movements slowed down too.  

"What’s… happening? Why do I feel… so slow?" he mumbled, his voice dragging as if his thoughts were slowing down too.  

"I-It’s… so… sweaty…" he gasped.  

And then, he collapsed onto the ground.  

The fat student also fell at the same time.  

And right before everyone’s eyes, their bodies started to change.  

Their backs became round.  

Their legs shrank and became smaller.  

And in just a few moments, they no longer looked human at all.  

They had turned into large, human-sized snails—but with their original faces still attached.  

Their skin turned into a slimy mix of blue and green, looking like wobbly jelly.  

A student nearby gasped in horror.  

"I’ve heard of them! They’re *Snailmen*! An anomaly class! They’re painfully slow, but if you touch them, you’ll turn into one too!"  

As soon as those words were spoken, everyone in the hallway bolted in the opposite direction, running as far away as possible.  

Maruti didn’t hesitate—she ran too.  

But as she moved through the academy, she saw even more horrifying sights.  

A monster with an extremely long tongue and eyeballs that spun rapidly in their sockets.  

Another creature with multiple hands coming out of its mouth.  

She saw a girl whose entire body was covered in sharp teeth—even her tongue had turned into a massive tooth that took up her whole mouth.  

And a bald student who now had hair growing uncontrollably all over his body, so thick and long that he couldn’t even see through it.  

Maruti felt no fear. But she was utterly disgusted.  

"What the hell are these things?" she muttered under her breath.  

Without stopping, she dashed up to the second floor, running through the corridors.  

Then, she pulled out a communication device and quickly connected to Esdeath.  

A voice came through.  

"What happened, Predictor? I was already on my way to the academy anyway."

Maruti took a deep breath and shouted into the device.  

"What happened?! You idiot! You said there would be monsters, but what are these disgusting creatures?!"
