I think that's the point. These two just wanted to get away, but they ran afoul of by far the most psychotic member of the class, Tomohiko (seriously, compare his reaction to Takako: she decides Mei is the extra and goes after her, deliberately sparing other students when it would've been far easier to kill them; Tomohiko just starts killing everyone he runs into, and isn't particularly concerned to find out he's already killed two innocent girls for no particular reason). I guess the idea is sometime the people who deserve to live die, and the people who don't necessarily come out unscathed.

Look at Yujito: he whacked Reiko in the head because she protected one of her students and survived, while Kenzou, whose only real crime is standing up for his friend, gets crushed by a freaking pillar.
