The following is a fanfic based on the anime "Dangan Ronpa." It takes place during a different timeframe, a while after the anime. Note that there are some dark themes in here, so if you are faint of heart, do not read. Chapter 1 Part 1: Prologue …“Ugh...my head…” Opening his eyes, the young man looked around and saw that he was inside a classroom...but something was off about it… “What?! Why are all the windows boarded up?!” The young man ran up to the window and tried to pull the boards off. “C’mon! Move! Ow!” Moving his hands away, the young man looked down at his hands to see they were bleeding a bit. “Damn...I can’t move these things off…” Suddenly, he heard a sound come out of a loudspeaker in the room. “Excuse me, excuse me...attention please! All students, please report to the gymnasium. Please report to the gymnasium.” “Students?...There are others besides me?” Turning around the young man saw the door and walked out. “Excuse me?” “Huh?...gah! A vampire?!” the young man said, leaping backwards and hit the wall. “Oh, no, I’m just a cosplayer.” “Cosplay?...” The young man looked closer to see that it was a young woman, dressed in a gothic like fashion. “You alright?” “Uh...yeah…” “You headed to the gym?” “Yeah...um...would you like to go together?” “...Sure…” As the two entered the gym, they were surprised by a group of people. “Oh, you must be the last two students.” “Uh...yeah...who are you guys?” -The first person to introduce himself was apparently a punk rocker, with red, spiky hair, leather pants and a biker’s jacket. Chains hung from his pants, with one chain attaching his sleeve to his jacket. Spikes on his shoulders, he flicked his guitar strings until he spoke. “Yo, you can call me Gendou, yeah! I’m trying my hardest to let my music get heard! So don’t get in my way.” -Super High-School Level Rock Star. -The next person was a young man wearing a hoodie. Looking pretty energetic, he spun around and jumped. “Call me Kouta, I love to party and have fun!” he said, before backflipping and breaking into a dance. -Super High-School Level Breakdancer. -A young man in a lab coat walked forward; his hair was slicked back and he wore sleek-looking glasses. Even though the young man reached his hand out, the other ignored him. “Daisuke. Now if you don’t mind I have to check my data sheets.” -Super High-School Level Chemist. -Dressed in a sun hat and overalls, the young man began wiping the brim of sweat off his forehead. “Makito, nice to meet you.” -Super High-School Level Gardner. -“I’m Sachi-desu, nice to meet you-desu.” -Super High-School Level Pâtisserie. -Walking up in a suit with measuring tape around his neck, a young man spoke: “I’m Fuyuki. Wow, you have some really nice clothes on!” -Super High-School Level Fashion Designer.- “Not.” -“Hey wanna buy one of these? Or these? I got a good deal for you!” -Tomiko, Super High-School Level Salesperson. “I can even get you a bundle!” she said, shoving a suitcase full of products in front of him. -“Oh my, are you distressed right now? Well, feel free to vent.” -Juri, Super High-School Level Counselor. “I can talk with you about anything,” she said with a smile. -“Ugh...I got a dig I need to get back to.” -Yamato, Super High-School Level Archaeologist. “I was on the verge of discovering an important part of history!” -“Herro! Ah, I’m sorry, I mean hello!” -Maria, Super High-School Level Linguist. “Baka, baka, baka...I should know what to say!” -“Eh?”-Kaoru, Super High-School Level Seiyuu (Voice Actress). “Sorry, I prefer to save my voice for more important matters.” -“Odd...I can’t get any signal…”-Akiko, Super High-School Level Inventor. “You wouldn’t happen to have a toolkit on you, do you?” -“Darling, where are we?” -Sora, Super High-School Level Cheerleader. “I don’t know, my dear!” -Taichi, Super High-School Level Soccer Player. “But it doesn’t matter-” “As long as I have you!” -Super High-School Level Couple. -“Ta-da! Did I surprise you?!” -Tsukiko, Super High-School Level Magician. Tsukiko made her way to the young man but tripped, dropping cards, rings and flowers. “Ack! My tricks!” -“Grr...Everybody, let’s rally together!” -Ryuuji, Super High-School Level Kendo Club President. “If we work together, we can make our way out of here!” -“Yeah, I agree with him!” -Haru, Super High-School Level Hairstylist. “I have an appointment and I need to work on this client!” “So...who are you?” the young man asked the girl who walked in with him. “Just call me ‘Lilith’ for now,” she said with a smile. -Lilith, Super High-School Level Cosplayer. “And you?” “Keiji.” -Super High-School Level ??? “So it appears we’re all people who specialize in something...but the question remains...does anybody know why we’re here?” Suddenly, all the students were quiet. “I...I actually don’t know…” “Where is this?” “I was just sent this letter telling me I got admitted…” Everybody turned to Akiko with wide eyes. “...Say that again…” “I got a letter that said I was admitted!” Daisuke walked up to her and grabbed her shoulders. “WHERE?! WHERE DID YOU GET ADMITTED?!” “Daisuke-san, calm down!” Juri said, jumping to him. “SHUT UP!” Daisuke yelled, smacking Juri to the side. “Hey…” “WHA- GEH!” Ryuuji was staring daggers at Daisuke, holding his sword up high. “Let her go.” “Tch...fine…” Daisuke said, backing off. “Juri-chan, are you okay?” “Yes, thank you Sachi,” Juri said as Sachi helped her up. “Now, Akiko, tell us, where were you admitted?” “H...Hope’s Peak Academy…” Everybody’s eyes widened. “Th...that...can’t be…” “I...I got that letter too…” “Darling and I as well!” “Did we all get that letter?!” “Nyahaha...of course you all did!” “Eh?” Turning to the podium, the students were surprised by what appeared to be a black and white stuffed cat jumping out. “A toy?” “I’m no toy, I’m MonoNeko! Your chairman at this academy!” “Wait...where have I heard this before?...” “Nyahaha...you must remember that tragedy that happened nearly a century ago…” Keiji’s eyes widened as he began to shake in terror. “My...my grandfather told me about Hope’s Peak Academy...then...that means…” “Nyahaha, that’s right! You all are in Hope’s Peak Academy!” “No...No!!!” Akiko screamed dropping to her knees. “But I thought that the school was rebuilt somewhere else!” “Nyahaha, yes, you were all meant to go to THAT Hope’s Peak, but I decided to bring you to mine instead! NYAHAHA.” “NO!!!” “Akiko, calm down!” “No! No! NO!!! I don’t wanna die! I don’t wanna die!” “D...die?” “Nyahaha, I see that she knows the story of this Academy. Welcome to the School Life of Mutual Killing!” “Mutual Killing?!” “That’s right...if you want to escape here, you’ll need to kill someone here! But no one must find out that it was you! After the murder, we will hold a class trial, where you are all able to try and find out who the murderer was! If you succeed...he/she will be punished accordingly. But if you fail...everybody BUT the murderer gets punished instead!” “NO!!! Please, just let me out of here!” “Akiko-chan!” Akiko ran up to MonoNeko and began shaking him, her tears flowing from her eyes. “Please, let me go! Please! PLEASE! I have to get home! I want to see my papa...I want to see my mama!” “Hey…” “PLEASE! PLEASE!” “No…” “NO, PLEASE, RECONSIDER, PLEASE, I DON’T WANT TO DI-” “NO TOUCHING THE CHAIRMAN!” ___ “...Eh?” Akiko looked down at her chest. “Wha...huh?...I...I’m...It’s...da-” Before she could finish, several more blades pierced her heart and forehead. MonoNeko wove his hand back as the blades were pulled out of Akiko. As she fell to the ground, everybody remained silent until Tsukiko screamed. “KYAAAA!!!!” “WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!” “BLEGH!” “DARLING, I’M SCARED!” “It’s alright my sweet, I got you!” “Everyone, Haru and Maria fainted!” “You…” Ryuuji said, gripping his blade. “Do you wish to join her right nya in hell?” MonoNeko said, staring Ryuuji down. Yamato, who had helped Daisuke back on his feet, ran alongside him to Ryuuji and pulled him back as Gendou and Kouta picked up Haru and Maria respectively. “That...that wasn’t a special effect…” Tsukiko said, crying into her hat. “MonoNeko...any relation to ‘Enoshima Junko?’” “Eh? Who? I don’t know who you’re talking about.” “Who is ‘Enoshima Junko,’ Keiji?” “Ah, nobody important. But Lilith, Tomiko, Kaoru, check up on the others, please. Makito, come with me please.” “Ah, sure.” The two walked up to Akiko’s body. Taking off his coat, Keiji placed it over her body. “Why did you ask me to come with you?” “MonoNeko, do you have a garden or field here?” “Why yes!” Turning to Makito, Keiji had a very distraught look in his eyes. “Makito, I need you to help me bury her and set up a memorial.” “EH?!” “Unless...MonoNeko, you don’t have any objections to that?” “Nya, go right ahead. But remember, you are all here to kill each other...so I see no need to honor your dead! Nyahahaha!” “Why you…” “Calm down Makito...let’s just carry her out of here.” “But-” “Right now is not the best time to fight against MonoNeko.” “Eh?” “Right now, we just need to keep our cool, trust me.” “Keiji, wha-” “C’mon, everybody is still freaking out, we need to stay strong right now.” “Keiji!” Lilith ran up to him. “What are you doing?” “We need to bury Akiko…” “So...she’s really…” “Yeah...tell everybody to gather in the garden in an hour.” ___ An hour later everybody had gathered in the garden, as Makito and Keiji lowered Akiko’s body into a hole in the dirt. While they covered it up and set a tombstone, everybody remained silent. “Damn it...damn it...damn it…” Daisuke was clenching his fist. “It’s not you fau-” “I know, god da-” Daisuke stopped himself from yelling at Juri. “I shouldn’t have acted like that to her though...If I didn’t, she wouldn’t have panicked, she would’ve had-” “It’s alright Daisuke-kun,” Juri said with tears in her eyes. “Juri-san…” “I...I don’t know why...Why this has to happen…” As the others comforted her, Makito and Lilith noticed Keiji looking at the grave. “Hey, Keiji, about what you said earlier…” “Huh? Sorry, I was just rambling. Don’t pay attention to what I said.” “Okay…” “We’ll go see how the others are doing,” Lilith said as she and Makito walked away. “Sorry guys...I can’t tell you guys yet...but I swear...I’ll get you all out of here..if it’s the last thing I do.” DAY 1: 18 STUDENTS REMAINING

(Play before reading: Opening theme: ) Chapter 1 Part 2: The Second Day. The death of Akiko shook the students all up. MonoNeko told them all had rooms of their own, so they all made their way down the hall. “Eh?” “What’s wrong, Sachi?” “There’s only 15 rooms. MonoNeko, does this mean we’ll all share rooms?” “Some of you will. But only in same sex pairs. No boy-girl room sharing! I know you’re all young, but...nyahaha...no, I can’t say what you guys are going to do...whooo...Do we have any volunteers?” The guys and girls looked amongst each other when Haru spoke up. “I’ll share a room with someone.” “I’ll share with you,” Juri said. “Eh…” “What’s wrong Sachi?” “...Sachi wanted to share with Juri-chan-desu…” “I’ll share with you then,” Maria said, smiling. “Okay, so that settles the room situation! Now get to sleep everybody, we have an early meeting in the morning!” MonoNeko said, disappearing again. “Good night everybody,” Fuyuki said, going into his room. “Night,” Ryuuji said, doing the same while the others began to enter their rooms until Lilith and Keiji were the only ones left alone. “Keiji...if you ever have anything to talk about, let me know,” Lilith said with a smile on her face as she walked into her room. “Likewise,” Keiji said, smiling back. Entering his room, Keiji looked around. Just like the gym and the classroom he was in, there was a security camera in the corner. “Ah, don’t worry about that!” “Gah!” Keiji was surprised by MonoNeko, who came up behind him. “It’s not like I’m peeping or anything...I’m just using these for evidence...you know...just in case…” “Nobody will kill someone, trust me.” “Ara? Do you really think so? You know that sometimes...people get desperate...well, Keiji-kun, I’ll leave you alone now, good night!” MonoNeko disappeared in an instant as Keiji looked around the room. A lint roller was at the corner of the bed. Beside the bed was a small nightstand, with a drawer at the bottom. Opening it up, Keiji found a toolkit and a small smartphone-like object. “Huh? What’s this?” Looking carefully, Keiji realized there was a note underneath it. “'This is your ElectroID. You will use it to gain access to some rooms later on. It also contains all your personal information. You can use this to also add in any new information you acquire'...These will be useful.” Keiji put them on top of the nightstand, and kept looking. Noticing another door, he walked up and turned the handle. Looking inside, he found a shower, sink and toilet. “A bathroom, huh? Well, glad he at least included that.” After a quick shower, Keiji jumped onto the bed and looked up at his ceiling. “Grandma...I wish you were here right now…I could really use your advice…” Closing his eyes, Keiji fell asleep. ___ (Play while you read: ) *PING PANG PUNG PONG! Everybody, it is 7 AM, meet in the cafeteria for further instructions!* Keiji opened his eyes and walked up to the door. “Keiji, are you awake?” “Huh? Lilith, is that you?” “Yeah, are you ready to head out?” Keiji opened the door to see Lilith staring back at him; this time, her cosplay was a cat hoodie with a large backpack. "Uh...how'd you-" "When I was on my way to Hope's Academy, I packed up all of my cosplays in this backpack!" "But is it really necessary to carry that around?" "Yes," Lilith said with the most expressionless face Keiji had ever seen. "Uh...okay..." “Shall we go?” she said with a smile on her face. “Ye...yeah,” Keiji said, blushing. *Now that I look at her, she’s pretty cute…* As the two walked into the cafeteria, Keiji noticed something- those who entered all entered with someone who was a lot like them- Sachi and Juri walked in, followed by Maria and Haru, Kouta and Gendou, Makito and Yamato, Sora and Taichi, Tsukiko and Kaoru, Fuyuki and Ryuuji, and Tomiko with Daisuke. (Stop music, play before reading the next part: “Welcome everyone!” said MonoNeko leaping out from behind the counter. “I hope you all found your ElectroIDs” he said, smiling. “Yeah, so what did you call us here for?” “Just to remind you about what I said earlier...after all, those ElectroIDs won't be of use unless someone is murdered! Nyahahaha!" "You bastard...I'll tear you apart!" Gendou said, leaping at MonoNeko. "Gendouchi, don't!" Makito yelled as he grabbed him. "Calm down! Do you remember what happened yesterday?!" Kouta yelled. Gendou looked down and shook Makito off. "Of course I do...I can't forget that..." "Besides, it's good that the inventor girl panicked, if she didn't, she probably could've taken me apart and discovered what I really am! Nyahahaha!" "Don't tell me...you planned to kill her from the start!" "Don't be ridiculous nya! How could have I decided to kill her from the start?!" MonoNeko said, chuckling. ) "Damn it..." Gendou said, kicking a trash can over. "Just tell us, why are we here?!" "Eh? Easy...for my amusement," MonoNeko said; his goofy grin turned into a grin that instantly drew fear into the students. "Now I forgot to tell you yesterday, the last 6 of you will be able to face against me for your freedom! Remember, the LAST SIX of all 18 of you students that remain will get that privilege, so don't disappoint me, kill away!!!" MonoNeko said, disappearing into a cloud of smoke. "That little freak..." "Well, I'm off," Daisuke said, heading out the door. "Where do you think you're going?" asked Yamato. (Resume the previous music before) "I happened to see a chemistry lab around here, I thought I'd go check it out. Don't disturb me," Daisuke said, walking away. "Strange guy." "Ah, everyone, why doesn’t Sachi bake a cake, desu? Maybe it can help take our minds of everything, desu!" "That's a great idea, Sachi-chan!" "Want to help Juri-chan?" "Yes! Let's get to work!" Juri said, taking Sachi's hand and running into the kitchen. "Well those two seem to get along greatly. If you don't mind me, I'm heading to the laundry room, I got some clothes I made that I want to clean off," said Fuyuki. "Ah! I'll come with!" said Lilith. "I'll go as well, I didn't have a chance to change, so I need to clean these as well," Yamato said, taking off his hat. “Hey, Ryuuji-san!” “What is it Taichi?” “Wanna go train? I wanna keep myself in shape.” “Only if you’re willing to spar!” Ryuuji said, shaking his hand. “I’ll go too and cheer you on, darling!” Sora said. “Nee, Keijichi." "What is it Makito?" "Come with me to the garden for a minute." ___ When the two of them entered the garden, they found that Akiko's grave had multiple flowers on it. In the center of all the flowers was a card. "What's this? 'I promise I will live on for your sake.' There's no name written." "Must've been one of the others, cause I only put the flowers on the grave before we went to our rooms." "I see. So you just wanted to call me out here to show me that?" "Nah, Keijichi, I wanna know what's going on between you and Lilith-chan!" "Eh?!" Keiji said, his face turning bright red. "There's nothing going on, we just met yesterday!" "Eh? But I can tell she likes you! I mean, why else would she show up at your door this morning?" "Eh? She did?" "Yeah! She was waiting out there, hesitating to knock when I saw her. She got all flustered and then spoke out loud. You lucky dog you!" Makito said, hitting Keiji with his elbow. "So that's what you wanted to talk about?" Keiji said, sighing. "Yeah! I need your help hooking me up with someone!" Keiji sighed again and looked at Makito. "Are you serious?" “Yeah! Like...hm...Sachichi’s too young looking...Jurichi doesn’t seem to want to talk to anyone on a dating level...Lilith-chan likes you…” “Wai-” “Sorachi is already with Taichichi, Haruchi would probably make me cut my hair...Ah, I’ve got it, Mariachi! Ah, I made her name into a joke! Can’t take that too seriously…” “Um...excuse me?” Makito and Keiji turned around to see a cloaked figure walking towards them. “GAH! GRIM REAPER! BYTHENAMEOFTHEFA-” “Makito-kun? Is that you? Can you please help me? I zipped up too high!” “Ah, Makito, calm down, it’s just Tsukiko.” “Oh. Ah! Tsukikochi!” Makito said with a big goofy grin. “She’s perfect. Now Keijichi, help a brother out, alright?” Makito said, wrapping his arm around Keiji. “Ke...Keiji-san is here?! No, I can’t show myself right now!” Tsukiko said, turning around and running. Tripping on her cloak, she fell forwards onto a pile of dirt. Sighing, Keiji walked up to her and picked her up, unzipping her cloak’s hood. “Ah, thanks Ma- KEIJI-SAN?!” Tsukiko said, blushing. “Are you okay? You look like you have a fever,” Keiji said, placing his hand on her forehead. Turning bright red, Tsukiko leapt back and bolted away. “GOMENASAI!!!” “Keijichi...why you…” “Eh?” “STOP HOGGING ALL THE GIRLS, DAMN IT! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?! THE MAIN CHARACTER?!” “EH?!” “Grr...ah, whatever. I can’t stay mad at someone I consider my bro. So, tell me something-” “I’m not together with Tsukiko either.” “That’s not it. It’s regarding your title.” Keiji’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Makito. “My title?” “Yeah, I mean, on our ElectroIDs, our personal information is on there. I mean, yours is the only one with a ??? where your profession is supposed to be, and your last name is blanked out. I mean, the only person like that is Lilith-chan, she just has her cosplay name in her ElectroID.” Keiji started to head to the exit. “Hey, Keijichi, wai-” “I’ll tell you in due time, Makito. But for now, trust me, alright?” Makito shrugged his shoulders and sighed. ““Fine, I trust you!” he said, holding his hand out to shake. Keiji grabbed his hand and shook it, before heading outside. “Umm…” Keiji turned to see a still blushing Tsukiko looking at him. “I’m sorry I ran, Keiji-san!” “Nee, Tsukiko?” “HAI?!” she said, bolting into a stiff standing position. “What kind of guy do you think I am?” “Eh?! Well, I think...Keiji-san is cool…” “Huh?” “Well, when I first saw you walk in, you...I…” “Hey...Tsukiko…” Keiji was staring right at her. Tsukiko was completely mesmerized, waiting for the next thing he would say. “Where’s your hat?” “Eh? My...hat?” Tsukiko felt the top of her head and realized that her hat was gone. “Wha...no! Where did I leave it?!” “If you want, I can help you find it,” said Keiji. “Uh...yes, please…” “Nyahaha, what’s this nya? A love flag raising?” MonoNeko suddenly appeared in between Keiji and Tsukiko. “That’s wrong! Uh...I’m just helping her find her hat,” Keiji said with a hint of nervousness. “That’s right, he’s just helping me…” Tsukiko said, looking away. “Ara? Do I detect a hint of disappointment in your voice, Tsukiko-chan? Nyahaha, you kids are so cute!” “Let’s go, Keiji-san!” she yelled, pulling him out of there. “Nyahaha, aw, youth.” ___ “Hey, Tsukiko...Tsukiko...Tsukiko!” “What is it, Keiji-san?” “You’re kinda holding onto my hand too hard.” “Eh?” Tsukiko looked down to see that she was in fact gripping Keiji’s hand. “GOMENASAI!” she yelled, pulling her hand back and bowing over and over again. “It’s fine, Tsukiko. Now, where did you leave your hat? You had it when you were in the cafeteria.” “Hmm...I think I left it in the student store.” “Student store?” “Yeah, come with me!” As he followed her, Keiji saw several others doing their own thing- Haru and Maria were both talking as Haru brushed Maria’s hair, Gendou was playing some music as Kouta danced to it, and Fuyuki and Lilith were having a conversation in the laundry room. “Hey, where’s Yamato?” “Ah, Keiji! He left after dumping his stuff in the dryer.” “Hoho, what’s this? Keiji and Tsukiko together?” “Fuyuki!” “What? I was sure this guy had the hots for-” “Keiji-san is just helping me find my hat, right?” “Yeah, that’s right!” “Good, cause otherwise, someone would get jealous here- OW!” Fuyuki said, gripping his foot. “Lilith, why did you-” “Want me to come along and look with you two?” “No, we’re fine, come on Keiji-san!” Tsukiko said, pushing him out the door. “Ah, wait, what did you mean, Fuyuki-” After a moment of silence, Lilith glared at Fuyuki who cringed in fear. “Never, ever, mention what we talk about.” “Got it!” ___ As they made their way into the student store, Keiji felt a vibration in his pocket. “Huh?” Keiji said, pulling out his ElectroID. “Oh, it’s a message from Sachi. Says that the cake should be done soon.” “That’s good. Well, here it is!” Walking into the student store, Keiji looked around to see many odd objects, but the one that caught his eye was dead center. “Eh? A gashapon machine? How are we supposed to use this?” “You have to use MonoNeko tokens.” “MonoNeko tokens?” “Yeah, they are apparently hidden all around the school! I managed to find 3!” Tsukiko reached into her pocket and pulled out the tokens. “See?” “Oh, okay...hey, look!” Keiji spotted something under the counter. Reaching down, he pulled out a small sack, but within it were about 20 MonoNeko tokens. “Whoa! That’s so many!” “So, what do I do with them?” “You insert them into the machine, either 1, 5, 10 or max tokens needed. Then, you get something! It’s not like at arcades where you’d get keychains or toys, sometimes they have useful stuff!” “Well, might as well try it out.” Keiji inserted one token and turned the knob. Suddenly, an alarm went off from the machine, popping out a gashapon capsule. “What’d you get?” Twisting the capsule open, Keiji shook out the contents into his hand, revealing a black cat hairclip. “Hey, Tsukiko.” “Yeah?” “Close your eyes.” “Eh?! O...okay.” Tsukiko did as she was told and thought to herself: *Ohmygodohmygodohmygod! Ishegoingto-* “Done!” “Eh?” Opening her eyes, Tsukiko saw that Keiji had a smile on his face. Feeling the top of her head, she found the hairclip was placed on the side of her head. “But-” “I thought you would look great with it on,” Keiji said with a smile. “It really suits you.” “Th...thank you,” she said blushing. “And look what I found while your eyes were closed,” Keiji said, reaching behind his back before revealing what he found. “My hat!” “Yup, you really did leave it here.” “Thank you Keiji-san!” “You’re welcome,” Keiji said with a smile. Looking intensely at him, Tsukiko turned away quickly. “Um...I’m going to go see how the others are doing. Thanks again, Keiji-san!” Within seconds, she left Keiji standing there. Holding out another MonoNeko token, Keiji inserted it into the machine and received another capsule. “What could be in this one- huh?” Opening it up, Keiji found inside something that caught his attention. “A bullet?” “Nyahaha, having fun?!” “Wah, MonoNeko!” The small black and white cat had a grin on his face before he noticed what was in Keiji’s hand. “Ah! How did that get in there?! Here, let me throw that out, and give you this MonoNeko token for free!...Ara? You found a whole bag of them?! You really do amaze me, Keiji-kun! Here you go!” Taking the MonoNeko token from him, Keiji inserted it into the machine. After twisting the handle, the capsule came out and Keiji opened it. “Huh? What’s this thing?” “Ah! You got a MonoNeko Card!” “Card?...Wait, what?” “That entitles you to investigate a crime before anybody else does! Use it wisely! Nyahaha!” MonoNeko disappeared in a puff of smoke as Keiji put the card in his pocket. “I really hope I don’t have to use this…” Walking out of the store, Keiji accidentally bumped into someone. “Uwah!” “Whoa, sorry! Oh, Tomiko.” “Hehe, hey Keiji. So, I heard you had some MonoNeko tokens. Wanna buy some of my stuff?!” Tomiko whipped out her briefcase and opened it. “I got some candy, answer keys, USBs, and...since you’re a growing boy...how about a magazine?” “Um...I’m fine...thanks…” Keiji said, slowly walking away. “Ah! Wait, I want one of those tokens!...I mean...PWETTY PWEASE?!” Tomiko said, giving Keiji a puppy dog look. “Ugh...here, take one.” “Yay! Thank you Keiji! Now to see what that machine will give me!” Tomiko declared, running into the room. “So I’m guessing everybody knows about the tokens? Huh, whatever. Wonder what I should do now…” “Oi, what was that?!” “Huh?” Following the sound of the voice, Keiji found Gendou being held back by Kouta, as an angry Kaoru stared back at him. “You heard me, your music has no soul! As a seiyuu, I have heard music that fits well with the voice, and that’s because it has soul. Your music has no soul whatsoever!” “Why you-” “Gendou-kun, Kaoru-chan, calm down! Ah, Keiji-kun, can you help me out?!” “Ah, yeah! Guys, what happened?” “He called me a moron!” “Well, she dissed my music!” “Well, it sucks!” “My ma taught me how to play!” “Well, she sucks t-” Gendou pulled his arm away from Kouta and slapped Kaoru. “You...you hit me…” “If there is one thing I can’t tolerate, it’s anybody who badmouths my ma! It was just me and her growing up, my old man left us! She taught me the way to play, and when we got the letter that I was accepted into Hope’s Peak, we were excited!...My ma...she’s got a condition. And I hope that my music can help me earn enough money to help her feel better...so please...don’t badmouth my ma...or my music…” Gendou’s rage subsided and his eyes began to fill with tears. “Hey...Gendou-kun...I’m...sorry...look, how about I help you out? I know some people in the entertainment industry that like your kind of music. If you want, when we get out of here, I can introduce you to them...deal?” Kaoru said, holding her hand out. Wiping the tears from his eyes, Gendou leapt and hugged Kaoru. “Thank you, Kaoru-sama!” “Oi, let go of me! BAKA!” she yelled, slapping his face. “Well, that solves that...so, Keiji-kun, what have you been up to?” “Just exploring, helped Tsukiko find her hat earlier, got MonoNeko tokens-” “No way, you got some! Dude, you have to share!” “What?” “MonoNeko said there’s some pretty sweet stuff in the machine! Come on, lend me one!” “Well, okay…” “Sweet! Be right back!” “How did you know about the tokens?” “Tomiko sent out a message.” “That...makes sense…” “Well see ya! Oh yeah, Sachi sai-” “I know.” “Oh, okay, see ya at the cafeteria!” Kouta backflipped and ran to the student store. “Huh...well, let’s see who else is around.” Walking past the gym, Keiji peered into the door and saw Ryuuji and Taichi, apparently fighting. As Ryuuji swung his sword down, Taichi leapt back and kicked at it. “Whoa, those two are getting intense.” Looking to the side, Keiji saw Sora, fully dressed in her cheerleading outfit, cheering Taichi on before she noticed him. “Ah! Keiji-kun! Come on in! No need to be shy!” “Ah, sure. So, what’re they doing?” “Training! Honey needs to work on his kicks, and Ryuuji-san is working on his swordsmanship!” *How can she say that with a smile on her face when that is going on…* Keiji thought to himself. The “training” that the two were supposedly doing was intense and quick; Keiji could barely keep track of who was where. With one swing, Ryuuji knocked Taichi back, causing him to fall in front of Sora. “Darling!” “I’m fine my sweet. Hey, Keiji, mind taking over for me?” “Uh…” “Come on Keiji, show me your strength!” Ryuuji leapt at Keiji, and swung downward when Keiji grabbed his arm and twisted it behind his back. Slamming his face into one of the bleachers, Keiji held him down as Taichi and Sora watched dumbfounded. “Oh...uh, my bad,” Keiji said, letting go. “Whoa, where did you learn that?” “Oh, my grandmother taught me.” “Your grandmother?!” “Uh...well, gotta go!” Entering the cafeteria, Keiji found Sachi and Juri still hard at work. “Hey, how are things going?” “Ah, Keiji-nii, taste this!” Sachi said, stuffing a candy rose in his mouth. “Mmm...wow, it’s really good!” “Really?! YAY! Juri-chan, Keiji-nii likes it!” “That’s great Sachi-chan! Hey Keiji, it’ll be a little while, we just popped the batter in the oven. Why don’t you go see how Daisuke-san is doing? He’s the only one who didn’t respond to Sachi’s message.” “Got it, I’ll be right back!” Keiji said, running out the door. “Keiji-nii is cool! But Juri-chan is the most awesomest person ever desu!” Sachi said, hugging Juri. “Hehehe, you got some frosting on your nose!” “Eh? Ah! Sachi’s now Sachi the Rednosed Reindeer!” ___ Walking into the chemistry lab, Keiji was greeted by a strong odor. “Ugh...what’s that smell?!” “It’s just from the chemicals on the table, pay no mind to that. What is it that you want?” Keiji looked at Daisuke- there were some chemicals spilt on his labcoat, his hair was a mess and he had goggles on, fogged up by the fumes. “Uh...well, Sachi is baking a cake, and-” “I’d like to remain in the lab for a while, please have someone bring it in when it is ready.” “But-” Daisuke got up and shoved Keiji out the door. “You heard me, don’t disturb my work!” Hearing the door slam behind him, Keiji sighed and walked back to the cafeteria. “Yo, Keiji!” Behind him, Lilith popped out, this time dressed like Kouta. “Hehe, did my cosplay fool you?” “Nah, not really.” “Gah...why not?!” Lilith said, looking disappointed. “Well...you’re um…” “What?” “You’re kinda revealing right now…” “Eh?” Looking down at her shirt, she could see that Keiji was right. Zipping up the jacket, she turned away and said “I’m sorry, I’ll get changed!” Running away, Keiji noticed she dropped something. “Huh? Oh, it’s her...room key…” Sighing, Keiji put it in his pocket. “I’ll go return it to her…” ___ “Eh? Where...where’s my key?! Don’t tell me...someone stole it?! No, what if they’re in my room right now, waiting to kill me?! Or worse...touching my cosplays?!” “Lilith.” “UWAH! Oh, Keiji.” “Here, your key.” “Keiji had it?...Wait, does this mean you were hoping to surprise me in my room!?” “Huh?” “No...nothing! Um...wait here!” Unlocking her door and running in, Lilith took about five minutes before walking out in another cosplay. This time, she was dressed as a short skirted shrine maiden; just seeing her made Keiji’s heart beat. “Um...you…wow…” “Uh...thank you…” Suddenly, both of their ElectroIDs rang, revealing a message from Sachi. “The cake is done...Shall we get going?” “Yeah, let's.” The two of them walked together in awkward silence over to the cafeteria. As they were about to step through the door, a puff of smoke appeared before them, revealing Tsukiko. “Keiji-san, please, take thi- Lilith-san? Why are you with Keiji-san?!” “Well, we just left my room-” “Lilith, you mean, we left your doorway...Tsukiko?” Keiji looked over to see she was now facing the corner in the fetal position. “Keiji-san...and Lilith-san...I have no place…” “Ah, Tsukiko, snap out of it, nothing happened!” Suddenly, Tsukiko leapt up and went in front of Keiji. “Are you serious?! Telling the truth?!” “Uh...yeah…” “YAY! I mean...good, cause students aren’t supposed to enter implicit relationships!” “Then why are you holding his hand?” “Eh?” Tsukiko looked down to see that it was indeed true- she was gripping Keiji’s hand again. “Uwah!” “Look out!” Just as Tsukiko flailed around and lost her balance, Keiji dived forward and caught her, resulting in the two of them looking like they were performing a dip. “You okay?” “I am now...I mean, yes!” “Ahem...can we go now?” “Uh, yeah!” “Oh, Keiji-san, I wanted you to have this, I got it from the MonoNeko machine,” Tsukiko said, holding out a MonoNeko card. “Ah! Tsukiko, you should hold onto that.” “Eh? Why?” “I already got one. Plus...well, we can use them together if you want,” Keiji said with a sincere smile on his face. Blushing bright red, Tsukiko smiled back. “Ye...yes!” “Ahem…” Lilith was pouting and turned away from the two of them. “I’ll go ahead, if you don’t mind,” she said, stomping her feet as she walked away. “What’s her problem?” Tsukiko asked, walking behind her. *Wait...does Lilith…* Keiji shook his head and followed the two of them to the cafeteria. ___ “Okay everyone, the cake is read-” “Nyahaha, this looks delicious!” “MonoNeko!” Sachi leapt back in fear but was caught by Juri. “Ara? Is your chairman not allowed to enjoy cake with you guys?” “Um...go right ahead…” “Nyahaha, good!” MonoNeko grabbed a slice and jumped to another table. “So, how are you all liking your accommodations?” “You really think we’ll answer tha-” “Gendou-kun, calm down,” Kaoru said, placing her hand on his shoulder. “Ah...they’re fine, I guess.” “Ara? I only count 17 of you. Where is Daisuke-kun?” “He’s still in the chemistry lab apparently. By the way, why does it look like that anyway?” “Ah, there used to be a different room, but I decided to relocate it after learning Daisuke-kun’s profession. Just like the garden, I decided to allow you all to access that but not the rest of that floor. By the way, Keiji-kun...I couldn’t find anything about you…” The group all turned to Keiji and all had looks on their faces that said “yeah, we don’t know either.” “It’s just that...I don’t really have a profession.” “Ara? That can’t be right...Did I accidentally enroll a normal student here? Ah well, might as well call you the Super High-School Level Normal then! Nyahaha!” MonoNeko said, laughing before he disappeared. “Okay...well, dig in everybody!” Sachi said with a bright smile on her face. As each person got their slice, Ryuuji looked down hard at his. “Eh, what’s wrong Ryuuji-nii?” “Sachi...forgive me...although I am glad you baked this cake...we seem to be forgetting what we need to do...and what happened yesterday.” The whole room grew silent and the smiles faded. “I don’t believe it’s fair to celebrate right now when we had someone just die yesterday.” “Sachi doesn’t want to think about that…” “It’s okay, Sachi-chan. Ryuuji-san, is it alright if we don’t talk about it?” “But we need to! I know all of you have families, waiting for you back home...but then MonoNeko took us here...I want us to be able to enjoy life without suffering!” Ryuuji said, his voice booming throughout the cafeteria. “Oi, I know how you feel,” said Yamato. “We can’t have everybody be relaxed right now, we need to keep our guard up. Sachi, I really do appreciate the cake though.” “Thank you, Yamato-nii.” “Ryuuji-san, let’s not have this be a celebration, but a memorial to Akiko. I know how bad you felt when you couldn’t protect her...we all did. But, we need to move on, and ensure that nothing happens to all of us,” Yamato said, holding his hand out. “...Yeah, we do,” Ryuuji said shaking it. “So, shall we all dig in?” “Yeah!” The group resumed, having fun and enjoying the cake Sachi made. “Ah, Sachi-chan, you have frosting on your cheek,” Juri said. “Ah, thank you Juri-cha-” Juri suddenly kissed Sachi’s cheek, causing Makito to drop his fork. “Ju-Juri-chan?!” “Ah, sorry, I just thought if I wiped it off, it would be a waste!” Juri said, getting up and bowing in quick succession. Makito turned to Keiji and said “Now I know why Jurichi doesn’t seem interested in me…” “Uh...well, let’s just enjoy the cake.” After they all enjoyed their slice, everybody decided to split up again; Kaoru and Makito went to the garden to put a slice on Akiko’s grave, Kouta and Gendou went to the media room to watch a dvd, Yamato and Fuyuki went back to the laundry room to finish their laundry, Tomiko, Tsukiko, Maria and Haru all went back to their rooms, and Ryuuji, Taichi and Sora all went back to the gym. “So, Lilith, what do you want to do?” “Ah...well Keiji, can we go back to the laundry room? I left some cosplay stuff in there.” “Ah...okay.” “Ah, Juri-chan, there’s still a slice left! Mind taking it to Daisuke-san?” “Sure Sachi-chan!” As they all left the cafeteria, Lilith was looking at Keiji intensely. “Wha...what is it?” “What’s going on between you and Tsukiko?” “Eh?! What do you mean by that?!” Keiji said nervously. “Well, it’s obvious that she likes you.” “Ah...you think so?” “So...do...you...like her?” “Huh?” Keiji realized that Lilith looked hurt. “Ah...well, I’ve decided not to like anybody right now.” “Eh?” “Well, I want to be able to get us out of here first...so until then, I’ll refrain myself from developing feelings for anyone.” “Re...really?” “Yeah.” “Ehehe,” Liltih laughed a bit, wrapping her arm around Keiji’s. “Eh?!” “What? Let’s get to the laundry room!” Walking in, the two of them found Fuyuki and Yamato both staring at each other intensely. “Ready?” “Begin!” The two of them began to fold their clothes so quickly that Keiji could barely watch. “Whoa!” Within seconds, both had large piles of clothes folded up. “That...was quick.” “Ha! I win!” “No, I did!” “Actually, Lilith won.” “Eh?!” The two of them turned to see that Lilith was already packing all her clothes into her bag. “Ehehe, I needed to be able to do this when I worked with my cosplay group.” “Wow...teach me how to do that, Lilith-san!” Fuyuki said, grabbing her hands with stars in his eyes. “Ah, sure…” “So, Keiji, can we talk for a bit?” “What about, Yamato?” “Fuyuki...I don’t know what it is, but something about him seems...off…” “Huh?” “KYAAAAA!!!!” “Eh?! That was Juri-chan!” “Yamato, stay here, I’ll go check it out!” “Keiji, I’ll come with you!” As Keiji and Lilith ran to the sound of Juri’s voice, they found themselves at the chemistry lab. “Juri-chan, what’s wrong?” “D…” “D?” “Dai...Daisuke-san!” “Eh?” “No...no way!” ___ (Play while you read: ) Daisuke was facedown on the floor, his head bleeding. In his hand was a beaker with chemicals in it. Powder and footprints were all around him. And what made things worse? He wasn’t breathing at all… *PING PANG PUNG PONG! A BODY HAS BEEN DISCOVERED! THE CLASS TRIAL WILL COMMENCE IN THE MORNING!* ___
