Cartoonronpa: Despair and Betrayal

Summary:

Rainer and her brother got accepted into Hope's Peak Academy! But when they arrived for their first day something knocks them out. Now Rainer and 17 other students will have to fight despair in a new killing game! Who will survive? And Who will fall? (This is a rewrite of my first story Danganronpa Despair and Betrayal.)

Notes:

HEY I'M BACK! Sorry I was gone for a while. I was really busy with my new job. Lately I was thinking about Danganronpa Despair and Betrayal. For my first story I feel like I did a good job. I even have plans for a sequel. But I feel like I could've done a better job writing the story. So I thought of rewriting the story. One thing I wanted to change is the amount of Pokémon characters. 5/18 people in the story were pokemon and I wanted to shorten it to have more variety of characters, so I made some changes to the cast. Hope you enjoy the new version of Despair and Betrayal!

Chapter 1: Prolouge

Chapter Text

?'s POV

Hope's Peak Academy! The school that scouts for people with ultimate talents and brings them together. If you're an Ultimate, you're a symbol of hope! People say if you go to Hope's Peak, you'll have a successful future! I never thought I would ever attend this school. But here I am, standing at the entrance to this giant school. It's so much bigger in person than it is in photos from online. Silly me, I forgot to introduce myself!

A blue dog with a mermaid tail and a white spiked collar around their head is standing in front of a giant gate. My name is Rainer Foxbert. I'm a vaporeon from the Galar Region. A bit of a background around me is that I lived with my parents and two younger brothers. As the oldest sibling I knew I had to do whatever it takes to keep my brothers safe! But my brothers will always find a way to get themselves in trouble. I loved to swim! I was the captain of my school's swim team and we were undefeated champions! So I guess you can say that I can be a good leader. And because of that I earned my title as the Ultimate Swimmer!

A yellow spikey dog with a white spikey fur collar and an orange dog with yellow hair, a big yellow fluffy tail and a big yellow fluffy collar walked up behind me. Those two are my younger brothers, the yellow one is a jolteon named Jolt Foxbert. And the orange one is a Flareon named Flame Foxbert. Jolt is the second oldest and Flame is the youngest. Like me, my brothers got invited to join Hope's Peak Academy. Jolt even though he loves to play sports, he always had a passion for coding! He knows everything there is to know about computers and coding. Which makes him the Ultimate Coder! And Flame's passion in life is cooking! He's one of the best chefs in our forest. Which makes him the Ultimate Chef!

Jolt said, "Woah! I can't believe we're actually here!". I said, "Yeah, it's exciting isn't it?". Jolt said, "You bet it is!". Flame said, "I'm actually really nervous right now!". Jolt said, "Oh, that's just your school anxiety talking.". Flame never really enjoyed school, it stresses him out so much. If it wasn't for me and Jolt coming here, he would've declined the invitation. Jolt continued, "Just breathe dude. Remember you got this!". Flame took a deep breath and said, "Thanks man!". I asked, "So are you guys ready to start our new lives here?". Jolt said, "Yeah!". Flame said, "I-I guess.". We slowly pushed open the gate and entered the school's grounds.

As we walked to the building we were taking in the sights of the school. Everything looks really beautiful. Jolt said, "Wow this looks really cool!". Flame said, "Yeah! I'm excited to see what the kitchen looks like!". I said, "I can't wait to see inside the school in general!". We approached the school's doors and we entered the school. We were now in the entrance hall and Jolt said, "This place looks nice!". Flame asked, "But why is it so empty? Shouldn't other students be here too?". Flame is right this place is really empty for being the best school in the world. I said, "Maybe we're too early.". Jolt said, "What time are we supposed to get here again?". I said, "8:00am and it's 7:30 right now.". Flame said, "Well might as well explore the school a little.". Jolt said, "I agree with Flame.". But before we could leave the room, a weird green gas started to fill the room. It made us start to cough uncontrollably. Jolt said while coughing, "What is this?!". Flame said while coughing, "I think it's gas?". I said while coughing, "B-But why is there gas?!". Before any of us could say another word, things went black. While I was knocked out an unknown voice said, "And that should be everyone! Now the fun can really start! Puh hu hu!".

I said while I was waking up, "Ugh! W-What happened?". I woke up in a classroom. It was pretty big with 18 desks I believe. Also a teacher's desk and a whiteboard in the front. I asked, "H-Huh? Where am I?". I decided to look around the classroom. I got out of my desk and noticed that there was a message on the whiteboard. It said, "Welcome to Hope's Peak!". I said, "So I wasn't dreaming. I really entered Hope's Peak Academy! But how did I end up here?". I then looked towards where the windows should be. But the windows were covered by big metal plates. I said, "What the?". Why did they cover the windows? Are they trying to keep something out? It's probably best not to think about it right now. I then realized that my brothers weren't here with me. I panically said, "W-Wait where is Jolt and Flame?! I gotta find them and make sure they're ok!". I then rushed out of the classroom in the hope they were close by!

When I entered the hallway I noticed that it had some sort of purple glow surrounding it. The hallway looked so creepy and weird. Where are the lockers? Why does the hallway look so purple? Is it the lights? I would have to push those questions to the side for now. I started to walk down the hallway. I decided to go right and it led me to a large red door. I immediately thought, 'What the?'. I decided to try to push open the door and see what was inside. But more matter how hard I was pushing the door wouldn't budge. I sighed and said, "The door must be locked.". Still though, I wonder what's inside?

Since I can't enter through the red door, I decided to head to the left. As I was walking I noticed two people talking in front of a door. One thing that I noticed about both of them was that they were blocky? One reminded me of Slenderman but no suit and the head wasn't white. Their eyes were also purple. And the other one was a green figure with no arms and four legs. Are they other Ultimate students? I guess there's one way to find out. I took a breath and walked up to them.

The tall one noticed me and said, "Hey you! Are you an Ultimate?". I said, "Yes I am.". The green one said, "We are too.". The tall one said, "So that makes 18 Ultimates in total.". I asked, "So who are you guys?". The tall one said, "My name is Ender Enderman. And this is Carrie Creeper. May we know who you are?". I said, "My name is Rainer. You guys said you were Ultimates right?". Ender said, "So you want to know our Ultimates right?". I nodded and Carrie said, "Well, I'll go first! I'm the Ultimate Builder! And yes I know it's weird that I'm a builder.". How is that weird? Ender said, "And I'm the Ultimate Teleporter.". I asked, "You can teleport?". Ender said, "Yes I can. What's your Ultimate?". I said, "I'm the Ultimate Swimmer!". Carrie said, "That's a cool Ultimate!".

Ender asked, "So, do you have any idea what's going on?". I said, "No I don't, I just woke up in a random classroom.". Carrie said, "The same thing happened to us.". Ender looked like he was thinking of something. I asked, "Hey, have you guys seen my brothers?". Carrie said, "Probably we've met a lot of people. If I remember correctly there's people in the room behind us.". I said, "Thank you guys!". Ender said, "No problem.". I then entered the door that they were in front of. So there's 17 other people here? Hopefully that includes Jolt and Flame.

The door leads to a dining hall. It has a large table with around 18 chairs. There were two people sitting at the table. It also has a door that I believe leads to a kitchen. The two were a blue hedgehog and a yellow or orange fox, honestly I can't tell. It's a little of both to be honest. Both of them were wearing gloves and shoes. I also noticed that the fox has two tails. I wonder if these guys are Pokemon that I have never heard of? I went up to them and the hedgehog noticed me. The hedgehog said, "Hey, you! Are you an Ultimate?". I said, "Yes I am! I'm guessing you guys are too?". The hedgehog said, "Yes we are! I'm Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog! AKA the Ultimate Speedster!". Ultimate Speedster? I'm guessing his talent has something to do with speed. Sonic continued, "And this is my little buddy!". The fox said, "Hi I'm Miles Prower! But most people call me Tails!". Sonic said, "And yes, it's because of his extra tail.". Tails continued, "And I'm the Ultimate Engineer!".

I said, "I'm Rainer the Ultimate Swimmer!". Sonic said, "Nice to meet you Rainer!". I asked, "Do you guys know what's going on?". Tails said, "No we don't. We woke up in a random room and we decided to explore the school.". Sonic said, "I bet Eggman is behind this. This is totally something the egg-head would do!". I asked, "Who's Eggman?". Tails said, "Oh he's just this evil inventor we fight. His real name is Doctor Ivo Robotnik. But everyone calls him Eggman.". I asked, "Why do you call him that?". Sonic said, "Cause he's shaped like an egg.". I then asked, "Do you know where my brothers are?". Sonic asked, "Are they yellow and orange dogs?". I said, "Yes, you know where they are?!". Sonic said, "Let me check real quick!". He then got up and ran to the kitchen door. But he was so fast that he left a blue light trail behind him. Then he came back as fast as he left. Sonic said, "Yep! They're in the kitchen over there!". I said, "Woah! You're really fast!". Sonic said, "That's why people call me the blue blur!". So that's why he's the Ultimate Speedster. I said, "Well, thanks guys!". Sonic said, "No problem!" and Tails said, "See you later!". I then went to the kitchen door.

When I entered the kitchen, I walked in on an argument between Flame, Jolt, and a yellow bird that kept flapping in the air. There was a bystander there too. A kid with an orange jacket. I knew I had to break up the fight before anyone got hurt. So I got in the middle of them, and I said, "Break it up, BREAK IT UP! What's the problem here!". Jolt said, "We were just minding our own business, trying to find you and then this duck guy came in and started to insult Flame and then me!". The bird started to say, "I'm sorry that I noticed that you two weren't intelligent, and by the way I'm not a duck! My name is Flappy the Flapping Bird. The Ultimate Flyer.".

The kid mumbled an introduction but I couldn't tell what he said. Flame asked, "What did that kid say?". Flappy said, "He clearly said that he's Kenny McCormick. The Ultimate Unlucky Student.". Jolt asked, "How did that get you in this school?". Kenny mumbled, "I don't know.". Ultimate Unlucky Student? I heard of the Ultimate Lucky Student but not that. It doesn't sound like an Ultimate title that anyone would want. Flappy said, "Well I bet you two got super lame Ultimate titles!". Jolt said, "Oh yeah? Well I'm the Ultimate Coder!". Flame said, "And I'm the Ultimate Chef!". Flappy said, "Those Ultimates sound lame compared to mine!". I said, "Actually their Ultimates are way cooler than Ultimate Flyer!". Flappy asked, "Oh yeah? Who are you anyway?". I said, "I'm their older sister Rainer Foxbert! Ultimate Swimmer!". Flappy said, "They're your brothers? Wow that says a lot about you!". I gave Flappy an angry glare. Flappy continued, "Well, I better be going! Come along Kenny, let's go somewhere else.". Kenny mumbled, "Um, it was nice to meet you?". And the two of them exited the kitchen.

Flame said, "Thanks for the back up. I'm glad to see you're ok!". I said, "No problem! I'm really glad that I found you guys!". Jolt asked, "Yeah, we were looking for you until we bumped into that bird. That bird started insulting us for no reason.". I asked, "Do you guys have any idea what's going on?". Flame said, "No, we were hoping that you would know.". Jolt said, "I heard some people were looking for clues or an exit.". I said, "I think we should start looking around too". Both of them nodded in agreement. So we exited the kitchen and then left the dining hall.

We found an entrance to a staircase but there was a gate blocking it. Flame asked, "Is it locked?". I tried to open it but the gate was locked. I said, "Yep, it's definitely locked.". Jolt suggested, "Maybe we can ram it down!". I said, "Jolt, maybe that's not a good ide-". But before I could finish, Jolt tried to ram the door down but failed so badly. After he ran into the door, we heard two voices behind us. "Gotta hurt" said one of them and the other one agreed. One of them looked like a wizard with a blue hat and blue cloak. The other one was a crab wearing clothes. I asked "Um, who are you guys?". The wizard said "I'm Kamek Koopa, the Ultimate Wizard.". The crab said, "And I'm Eugene Krabs but call me Mr. Krabs and I'm the Ultimate Cheapskate! Also the proud owner of the Krusty Krab! The home of the famous Krabby Patty!". I don't think I trust going to his restaurant since he's the 'Ultimate Cheapskate'.

Kamek rudely asked, "Who are you three?". I said, "I'm Rainer the Ultimate Swimmer.". Jolt said, "Jolt the Ultimate Coder!". Flame said, "And I'm Flame the Ultimate Chef!". Kamek said, "Do you three have any information about our situation?". I said, "No, we don't know anything.". Kamek said, "Then I don't need you three right now. Later!". Kamek left us by the staircase. Jolt asked, "What was his problem?". Mr. Krabs answered, "Yeah, I don't know what his problem is either. I just met the lad.". I said, "I'm guessing you don't know what's going on either?". Mr. Krabs said, "Nope, I just came to this school because I was told it would earn me more money!". I'm honestly not surprised. Mr. Krabs asked, "Speaking of money, have you lads seen any around here?". Flame said, "No we haven't.". Mr. Krabs said, "Then I'm off for some money hunting! I'll see you lads around!". Then Mr. Krabs went off to look for money. Jolt said, "We should probably head out too.". I said, "I agree.".

We decided to head to the Entrance Hall, maybe there's some clues there. When we got there the main thing we noticed was that the front entrance was replaced by a vault door! Also there were two people there. A blocky skeleton and a blocky person with green skin, blue shirt, dark blue jeans and gray sneakers. Jolt said, "Well, that's new.". Flame asked, "Why is there a vault door here?". I said, "Maybe those two people would know? Let's go ask them.". So we went up to the two people. The green guy was trying to pull open the vault door. While the skeleton said, "When will you give up Blockhead? This door clearly won't open!". The green guy said, "If you're not here to help then just go away!". I said, "Um excuse me, do you guys have-". The skeleton said, "Have any idea what's going on? You're like the 10th person to ask me that. No I don't, and neither does Blockhead here!".

Jolt asked, "Ok, but can you tell us who you guys are at least?". The skeleton said, "My name is Skylar Skeleton. The Ultimate Archer!". Skylar looked towards the green guy and said, "Hey Blockhead! Introduce yourself to these people!". The green guy sighed and said, "My name is Zeke, and I'm the Ultimate Hunter.". Ultimate Archer and Ultimate Hunter, both are very interesting Ultimates. Skylar asked, "So who are you guys?". I said, "I'm Rainer the Ultimate Swimmer.". Jolt said, "The name is Jolt, The Ultimate Coder.". Flame said, "And I'm Flame the Ultimate Chef.". Zeke stopped trying to open the vault door and said, "Ugh! This stupid door won't budge!". Skylar said, "I told you it wouldn't work.". Zeke said, "Whatever! Maybe there's another exit somewhere else! Come on dude let's go and look.". Skylar said, "Sure, later you guys.". Zeke and Skylar left the Entrance Hall.

Jolt asked, "What's going on in this school? The entrance is being blocked with a vault door.". I said, "The windows are also covered with metal plates.". Flame said, "I have a bad feeling about this.". I have the same feeling. Jolt asked, "Wait, isn't this the room we got knocked out in?". Flame said, "Yeah, we got knocked out by some weird gas.". Oh yeah I remember that now. Wait, were those weird voices I heard real too? It doesn't matter right now, we have to figure out what's going on. I said, "I think we should look somewhere else.". Jolt said, "Yeah, there doesn't seem to be anything here.". We left the Entrance Hall.

Once we entered the hallway, Jolt said, "Which room is next?". We then see a green bunny hopping from the right. The bunny noticed us and hopped to us. The bunny said, "Oh hi I'm Hoppy Hopscotch what are your names?". I said, "Um, I'm Rainer. And I'm the Ultimate Swimmer". Jolt said, "Name is Jolt, the Ultimate Coder.". Flame said, "And I'm Flame, I'm the Ultimate Chef.". Hoppy said, "WOW, those are awesome Ultimates! It's awesome to meet you guys!". I asked, "Hey, Hoppy what is your Ultimate?". Hoppy said, "Oh, I'm the Ultimate Soccer Player!". Jolt said, "Cool Ultimate.". Hoppy said, "Thank you!". I asked, "Hey Hoppy, do you know what's going on?". Hoppy said, "Sorry, I don't. I got knocked out by gas and woke up in a random room. I thought my friend CatNap was pranking me but I can't find him anywhere.". We weren't the only ones to be knocked out by gas? I asked, "Hey Hoppy, do you know where some people are?". Hoppy said, "There's two people in that room over there. To let you guys know they're interesting people.". I said, "Thank you Hoppy, it was nice to meet you!". Hoppy said, "No problem! I'll see you guys around!". Then she hopped away. Jolt said, "She seems cool.". I said, "I agree.". We then went to the room Hoppy told us.

But before we could enter the room, a white goose with orange legs and an orange beak came out. The goose noticed us and said, "Oh, more people…". Jolt asked, "Um hey. Who are you?". The goose said, "The name is Dustin Goose the Ultimate Goose!". Flame asked, "Ultimate Goose? What is the Ultimate Goose?". Dustin said, "Well, it means that I'm good at doing duties!". Then a purple astronaut came out of the same room and said, "Don't let him lie to you! He's not the Ultimate Goose!". Dustin said, "Oh yeah how would you know?". Jolt asked, "And who are you?". The astronaut said, "You can call me Purple, the Ultimate Crewmate!". Ultimate Crewmate? Dustin said, "Wow and you say I'm lying?!". Purple said, "I can do tasks better than you!". Dustin said, "Puh Lease, I can complete duties faster than you can!".

Dustin and Purple started to argue. I now understand what Hoppy meant about them. Flame said, "This is awkward… What should we do?". Jolt said, "Hey you guys! Do you have any idea what's going on?". Purple said, "I bet Dustin doesn't know anything!". Dustin said, "I know more than you!". Then the arguing continued. I said, "Ok, asking them isn't going to help.". Jolt said, "Yeah, all they're doing is fighting.". I said, "Maybe we should head into another-". But before I could finish my sentence, a voice started to say, "Hello, is this thing working?". Flame asked, "Where is that coming from?". I looked around and found a monitor and speakers up on the wall. I said, "I think it's coming from up there.". The monitor turned on to show a silhouette of a bear? The voice said, "Attention all students! Please meet in the gym for a very special introduction! Don't be late or else!". Then the speaker and monitor turned off.

Dustin asked, "What was that?". Purple said, "Probably the principle stupid! Now I'm going to the gym before I get in trouble!". Purple started to walk away and Dustin said, "Hey I won't let you beat me there!". He then chased after Purple. Jolt asked, "Do you think we'll get some answers from this?". Flame said, "I don't know but I don't trust it.". I said, "I don't think we have a choice. I think we have to go.". I'm still on Flame's side here. Especially after that 'or else' line. But we don't have any other option, we have to find out what's going on! And if there's anyone we haven't met yet I'm pretty sure I'll meet them there. So we started to head for the gym.

When we finally entered the gym, there were two people I hadn't met yet. a guy wearing a red hat, overalls, and a mustache and the other one was a literal rock with legs and a face. Sonic asked, "Where's the guy who called us here?". Tails said, "Be patient Sonic.". Kenny mumbled, "Who was that guy anyway?". I then decided to talk to the two people I haven't met yet. So I walked up to the rock and dinosaur and said, "Hi I'm Rainer the Ultimate Swimmer! Who are you guys?". The guy said, "Oh, I'm Mario Mario the Ultimate Hero! ". As soon as Mario finished speaking Kamek gave Mario the stink eye. Mario continued, "And this little guy's name is Rocky I believe.". Rocky goes "Hmm Hm!". I asked, "Hey Rocky what's your Ultimate?". Mario said, "When I met Rocky he didn't say anything. I don't think he can talk.". I asked, "So how do we find out what his Ultimate is?". Mario said, "Well he told me in writing that he's the Ultimate Contestant.". Ultimate Contestant? Does that mean he's competed in competitions before?

But before I could say a word, a bear jumped out of nowhere right in front of us. He was standing on a podium and he looked weird. Half of his body was white and the other half was black. And he has a huge red cut on his right eye. Zeke said, "What is this?". Sonic said, "It looks like a teddy bear?". Carrie asked, "What's a teddy bear? We don't have those where I come from.". The bear said "I'm not a teddy bear!". Kamek said "So it's a hologram then". The bear said, "NO! I'm YOU'RE headmaster!". Flappy said, "There's no way that you're the headmaster of the school!". The bear said, "You better believe it! My name is Monokuma!". I asked, "What is going on here?!". A question that was going through everyone's minds. Monokuma responded, "You're at Hope's Peak Academy! You're new home!". Mr. Krabs asked, "New home? For how long?". Monokuma replied, "Hmm, let me see, FOREVER!".

The room was silent. Did he say forever?! I decided to speak up and ask, "What do you mean by forever?!". Zeke said, "Yeah man, what do you mean?". Monokuma said "It means you guys are stuck here forever with no contact with the outside world or an exit.". Tails yelled panically, "WE DID NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS! THIS IS BASICALLY KIDNAPPING US!". Flappy said, "Yeah we didn't sign up to stay at a place where there's no way to leave". Monokuma said, "I never said there wasn't a way to leave.". Ender asked curiously, "So there is a way to leave? What is it?". Monokuma's response still haunts me till this day. His response was, "The only way to leave is to get away with murder!".

Silence filled the air while the rest of us were shocked, scared and probably angry. A terrified Carrie asked, "W-What d-do y-you m-mean b-by getting away w-with m-m-murder?!". Monokuma said, "It's self explanatory, stab, drown, burn, it doesn't matter how you do it as long as you kill without getting caught!". Zeke said aggressively, "What kind of sick game is this!". Ender said, "Zeke calm down! We don't know what this bear thing can do.". Then Zeke said really aggressively "No I'm not gonna 'calm down'! This psychotic bear wants us to KILL EACH OTHER! I'm gonna show him a piece of my mind!".

Zeke walked up to Monokuma, grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up. Zeke said aggressively, "Now YOU'RE gonna let us all out or I'm gonna send you to next Tuesday!". Monokuma said, "I wouldn't do that if I were you.". Zeke aggressively asked, "Why not?!". Monokuma said, "I'm just like your creeper friend!". As soon as Zeke heard that, he dropped Monokuma and backed away. Hoppy asked, "W-What does that mean?". Ender said, "He has a bomb inside of him!". Multiple people yelled, "WHAT?!". Monokuma said as he was getting up, "You're lucky I'm letting you off with a warning this time. Attacking the headmaster is against the rules.". Flame asked, "Rules? There are rules here?". Monokuma said "Of course there is! What kind of school would this be if there aren't any rules?". Flappy replied, "What kind of school encourages their students to commit murder?". Monokuma ignored Flappy, and said, "If you look behind you all you should see a table with 18 tablets. They are your E-Handbooks! They have a bunch of features. They're your key to get into your rooms. They have your student profiles. They also have the rules in them. Grab the one with your name on it and read the rules!". I turned it on and read the rules.

Rules:

Rule 1 Students may reside only within the school. Leaving campus is an unacceptable use of time.

Rule 2 "Nighttime" is from 10 pm to 7 am. Some areas are off-limits at night, so please exercise caution.

Rule 3 Sleeping anywhere other than the dormitory will be seen as sleeping in class and punished accordingly.

Rule 4 With minimal restrictions, you are free to explore Hope's Peak Academy at your discretion.

Rule 5 Violence against headmaster Monokuma is strictly prohibited, as is destruction of surveillance cameras.

Rule 6 Anyone who kills a fellow student and becomes "blackened" will graduate, unless they are discovered.

Rule 7 The body announcement sound will only activate when three or more students see the dead body, the killer is not included.

Rule 8 The blackened can only kill two students, if more than that punishment will be given.

Rule 9 Monokuma can't kill a student unless they broke a rule.

Rule 10 Additional school regulations may be added if necessary.

'Blackened?' is what the killers are gonna be called in this game. It is weird if you ask me but I don't want to get killed by a psychotic bear so I'm keeping my opinion to myself right now. These rules are good to keep in mind though. It might become very useful later. I'm also scared to know what the punishments are going to be. It's most likely DEATH, knowing the situation we're in. After everyone had read the rules, Monokuma continued talking. He said, "Well now you all know the rules. I'm gonna let you all sleep and I'll explain more about the Killing Game tomorrow. Your dorm should have a picture of your face on it.". Sonic said, "That's why some doors had people's faces on it.". Skylar sarcastically said, "You're SO clever." Ender said, "Wait earlier you said without getting caught, what do you mean by that?". Monokuma said, "Good Question, it's not enough just to kill someone, you have to get away with it! Once three innocent people find the body an investigation will start! That's when you'll look for clues on whodunnit! Then we'll start the class trial! That's where you'll talk about the clues you've found and try to find the blackened! If you get it right, only the blackened will get punished! Get it wrong, everyone but the blackened will get punished!". Investigations? Class Trial? Punishments? I don't like the sound of this!

Monokuma said "That's enough explaining for now, you all should go to get some rest. Good night and see you all at tomorrow's announcement! Buh bye!". Monokuma jumped and vanished out of nowhere. All the news that was just shared right now was just too much. I looked over to my brothers and they looked as terrified as me. I asked, "A-Are you guys ok?". Flame tried to talk but kept stammering. Jolt said, "H-How can we be ok? We're in a killing game! Where you and Flame can get hurt or worse!". I can't blame him, this isn't what I'd expected when I got invited to join this school. This isn't the school life I dreamed of. This is just a nightmare! I hope we can survive this sick and twisted game.

…18 students remain…

 

Chapter 2: The First Blood (Daily Life)

Summary:

Our 18 students started their new lives in Hope's Peak Academy. Will they be able to get along and find a way to escape? Or does Monokuma has something up his selves that'll get in the way.

Chapter Text

Daily Life

Rainer's POV

The 18 of us were still standing in the gym speechless. Monokuma just told us in order to leave the school we have to kill someone and get away with it! This is not what we were hoping for when we accepted the school's invite. I looked at my brothers and I knew I had to protect them no matter what! Hoppy broke the silence by saying, "T-There's no way h-he was serious, right?!". Carrie said, "This can't be real!". Kenny mumbled, "Of course this happens to me!". Zeke asked, "What is that kid saying!". Flappy said, "You seriously couldn't tell?". Tails said, "Sonic what do we do! I'm scared!". Sonic said, "Don't worry Tails, we'll be fine!". Everyone was panicking. Well almost everyone, Kamek, Dustin and Purple didn't look scared. And Rocky just stood there. I don't think his face changed cause he still had this big smile from when I met him. I knew that panicking isn't going to help us get through this, so I decided to speak up.

I shouted, "EVERYONE PLEASE CALM DOWN!". I managed to get everyone to stop panicking. I continued, "I know you all are terrified by what we were just told. Believe me I'm panicked and terrified too! But the best thing for us right now is to stay calm!". Ender said, "Our friend is right, if we all stay calm and work together we can all get out of here alive!". Sonic said, "Yeah, they're right!". Kamek said, "You seriously can't be serious! Working together isn't going to get us all out alive!". Jolt said, "It's better than everyone being scared and panicking!". Kamek said, "Me and you both know that anyone here will do what that bear wants and kill!". Flappy said, "I agree with the wizard! There's no way I'm letting one of you kill me!". I said, "I know some of you guys are paranoid, but working together increases our chances to survive!". Kamek said, "Believe what you want. I'm leaving later!". Kamek and Flappy left the gym.

I sighed and said, "To everyone who wants to work together. I think if we all meet up during breakfast and dinner. It could help make sure everyone is ok. And we could discuss our next choice of actions.". Ender said, "That sounds like a good idea!". Mario said, "Yeah I like it too!". Carrie asked, "So, should we go to bed?". Flame said, "Yeah, it's been a long day.". We all left the gym. Before I went into my dorm I told Flame and Jolt, "Good night guys, please lock your doors and stay safe.". Flame said, "You too Rainer, Night!". Jolt said, "Yeah night Rainer.". We entered our dorms. The dorm rooms aren't really decorative. On the far left corner there is a medium sized bed. On the opposite side of the room, there's just a small wooden desk and a small wooden chair. At least the dorms have private bathrooms. The exact opposite side of the entrance to the dorms, there should be a door closer to the right corner that leads to the bathroom. The private bathroom is actually pretty nice. It is a lot nicer than the actual dorms themselves. I then layed on my bed and went to sleep, ending the day.

The monitors turned on to reveal Monokuma and he said, "Rise and Shine students! Get ready for another beautiful day!". And then the monitor turned off. I woke up and I started to look around my surroundings. I was scared and said, "W-Where am I?! This isn't my room?!". Then I realized that my dream last night was sadly not a nightmare. "Oh right, the killing game." I said while I put my right paw on my forehead. I did not have a good sleep last night, it didn't help that the bed wasn't that comfortable. They could've made the dorms more comfortable and decorative for the students if they are forcing them to live there. I went into my bathroom and got ready for the day. When I was done getting ready I heard a doorbell ring. I didn't even notice that our dorms had doorbells. I opened the door to see that Jolt was on the other side.

I said, "Hey Jolt, how are you doing?". Jolt said, "Not that good. The beds are so uncomfortable. And knowing the fact we've been tricked to enter a game where we can DIE! How can anyone be OK?!". He sounded very stressed. I don't blame him for being stressed right now, I'm freaking out too but I'm doing my best to stay calm. I said, "Bro, calm down! I understand how you feel but freaking out isn't going to do you any good!". Jolt said,"I'm sorry. I'm just very worried right now.". I said, "I'm pretty sure everyone is.". We took a breath and I asked, "Hey, where is Flame?". Jolt said, "He went straight for the kitchen. He wanted to make everyone breakfast.". I'm not surprised. I said, "Should we head to the dining hall?". Jolt said, "I'll meet you there. I told Flame I'd help him after talking with you.". I asked, "Do you want me to help too?". Jolt said, "We should be fine. It's probably better if you make sure no one causes trouble.". I said, "Ok, let me know if you guys do need me.". We went to the dining room.

When we entered the dining room, Ender, Carrie, Kenny, Purple, Sonic, Tails, Mr. Krabs, Flappy, Kamek, Dustin, Mario, Zeke, and Rocky all having conversations with each other. I'm honestly surprised to see Flappy and Kamek there. Jolt went to the kitchen, while I joined everyone else. Sonic asked, "So, is Purple your actual name or a nickname?". But before Purple could say anything Dustin said, "No, Purple is his nickname.". Zeke asked, "So if Purple is your nickname, what's your real name?". Purple responded, "That's classified information you suspicious… uh… thing!". Dustin said, "Nice comeback Purple.". Purple yelled, "SHUT UP!". That made Kenny chuckle. Ender and Carrie noticed me, and then Carrie said, "Rainer! Good morning! How'd you sleep?". I said, "Not that good. I'm guessing it's the same with everyone here.". Mr. Krabs responded with "These beds are cheaper than the ones I found online.". Sonic said, "I think Rocky was the only one who looked like they had a good night's sleep last night,". Tails told him, "Probably because he is always smiling, Sonic. I've never seen him make a different face at all. Even during Monokuma's announcement yesterday.". Mario asked, "Did he even talk to anyone at all? All he did was show me his note with his name and ultimate.". Everyone who interacted with Rocky all said no. I'm really curious about Rocky even more now.

Kamek turned to Mario to question him, "So Plumber, what's the reason why you're here?". I said, "Wait, why are you calling Mario, 'Plumber'? Isn't Mario the Ultimate Hero?". Mario said, "Actually, I used to be a plumber before I became a hero. And I should be asking you, Kamek. Aren't you way too old to be in this school?". Kamek said, "I'm forced to go to school if I want to keep my wizard license obviously!". Mario then asked, "Then why are you attending Hope's Peak?". Sonic asked, "Can we stop fighting here? It's not going to help!". I wanted to switch the topic and asked, "Where is Skylar and Hoppy?". Tails said, "Hoppy is probably still getting ready.". Zeke said, "And Skylar doesn't need to eat, so I'm guessing he's still in his dorm.". After Zeke said that we see Hoppy dragging Skylar into the dining room. Skylar said, "I told you I don't need to eat!". Hoppy said, "Yeah but we all agreed to have morning meetings here remember?". Hoppy dragged Skylar to the table and said, "Good morning guys! How is everyone?". Carrie sighed and said, "We're doing the best we could.". Zeke chuckled and said, "I can see you got Skylar out of his dorm.". Hoppy said, "Yeah, I didn't want him to miss our first morning meeting!". Skylar said,"Well I'm here now, can you let me go!". Hoppy said, "Oops sorry!". Hoppy let Skylar go and they both took a seat.

Flappy said, "You guys are serious about this stupid morning meeting idea?". Tails said,"It is a good way to make sure everyone is ok!". Kamek said, "You do know that eventually one of you will kill right?". Zeke asked, "If you think this idea is so stupid then why are you even here?". Kamek said, "Cause the Ultimate Chef said that he was cooking everyone breakfast.". Mr. Krabs said, "Just as long as I don't have to pay for it, I'm hungry for anything!". Flame and Jolt came out with breakfast. Flame made pancakes for everyone. Flame said, "I hope everyone is hungry!". Mr. Krabs asked, "We don't have to pay for this right?". Flame replied, "N-No?". Mr. Krabs said, "Then what are we waiting for, let's dig in!". Everyone ate Flame's pancakes and everyone seemed to enjoy it. Flappy said, "Wow, didn't expect you to be this good at cooking!". Jolt said, "You better keep your insults to yourself duck!". Flappy said, "I am not a duck!". Hoppy asked, "Can we please not fight!". I said, "I agree with Hoppy! Fighting is the least helpful thing right now!".

Ender said, "Let's just talk about what we're going to do.". Dustin asked, "What's our plan here?". Carrie said, "Maybe we should elect a leader?". Hoppy said, "Yeah! My friend DogDay leads my group back home and we always succeed!". Purple said, "I will lead the group!". Dustin said, "No I will!". Ender said, "Actually I think Rainer should be the leader.". I said, "Huh?". Ender said, "You were the one to calm everyone down last night and arranged the morning meetings". Jolt said, "And you are the leader type.". I said, "I don't know if I-". Ender said, "Rainer, I have a good feeling about your leadership skills.". Flame said, "Yeah, you got this!". I said, "O-Ok. Well, one thing I think we should work on is bonding with each other. If we get to know each other, it would lower the urge to kill!". Sonic said, "Sounds like a good plan!". Flappy said, "You really think that'll work?". Jolt asked, "Why are you still here?". Flappy said, "What? I can't be curious about what terrible plan you guys are coming up with?". Skylar said, "Just ignore him.".

I said, "After Monokuma's announcement today, we should explore the school again.". Purple asked, "But didn't we already do that yesterday?". I said, "Yes but according to the map there are some rooms we haven't searched yet and we might've missed something in the rooms we did explore.". Tails added, "And we barely investigated the gym as well!". Flame asked, "Rainer what map are you talking about?". Kenny mumbled, "There's a map on the E-handbooks.". Flappy said, "Yeah, are you blind?". Jolt asked, "Can you just shut up?!". Kenny mumbled, "Speaking of Monokuma's announcement, what do you guys think it is?". Monokuma's voice said, "Puh hu hu! Well you're about to find out!".

Monokuma popped out of the floor just like he did last night. Zeke said, "Great… The stupid bear is back!". Monokuma said, "At Least I'm not a brainless zombie like you!". Zeke got up and yelled, "Do you want a knuckle-". Skylar said, "Blockhead, do you remember what happened last night?". Zeke sat back down and growled. Monokuma said, "Now that's over, we seem to be missing someone!". But wasn't everyone just here eating breakfast? Carrie said, "But everyone was just here? Who's missing?". Mario said, "I believe Kamek left after they were done eating.". I didn't even notice that Kamek left. Monokuma said, "Well I'll go grab him! Meet us in the gym! Don't be late!". Monokuma jumped and vanished out of nowhere. Dustin asked, "Do we have to go?". Tails said, "If we don't listen to him we'll die!". Zeke said, "Yeah, he'll most likely explode you! Like he almost did to me!". Dustin said, "He just says he has a bomb in him! There's no proof!". Dustin does have a point. That could've been a lie to scare us. But I don't want to find out. I said, "We should play it safe and go to the gym.". Dustin said, "Fine!". We all left the dining room.

We entered the gym, waiting for Monokuma to show up with Kamek. Some were not happy and impatient while others were worried and scared. I was with the group who were worried and scared. Monokuma ran in the gym while dragging Kamek. He then let go of Kamek and jumped on the same podium as yesterday. He playfully said, "Hello students! Are you ready to hear the announcements?". Zeke said, "No!". Monokuma said, "Too bad! Now after every class trial-". Skylar interrupted by asking, "Can you explain more on how Class Trials work?". Monokuma said, "I'll explain class trials when the time comes. After every class trial, I'll reveal a new motive!". I nervously asked, "What do you mean b-by m-motive?". Monokuma explained, "I'll be giving you all motives to help encourage you to murder one of your classmates. The motive is limited time. Once a class trial ends, the motive is no longer active! A day or two after the trial, I'll announce a new one. There should be a motive file in your handbooks to remind you what the motive is and to tell you some information about the motive that might only be for your eyes.".

With this new information, I started to get worried because I knew that we're about to get our first motive. Why else would he be telling us about motives? Flappy asked, "So is our first motive the big announcement?". Monokuma said, " Yes it is! You should get a star for that one!". Flappy rolled his eyes. Monokuma continued, "Since it's the first motive I wanted it to be fun but not too big so… Everyone check the motive file in your handbooks right now!". I looked at the file and it says. "Motive #1: Secrets! Read below to find out who's secret you've received!". What in the world is this? Is he revealing our secrets?! Jolt asked, "What is this?". Monokuma said, "It's your motive! You've received another student's secret and another student has received yours. You can decide what to do with the secret. Share it, keep it, use it for blackmail, anything you want.". Ender asked, "How in the world did you get our secrets?". Flame asked, "Also how does this encourage someone to kill?". Monokuma explained, "To answer the first question, I have my ways. To the second question, These secrets could be very dark, very personal or very embarrassing! Enough for you to do anything in your power to make sure the world doesn't find out. Even murdering a fellow classmate.". Luckily I haven't done anything bad or embarrassing enough for this to affect me but I have a gut feeling that's not the same for everyone else.

Monokuma said, "Now that you have your motive, I'm gonna let the chaos rise and let you guys go on with your day. Have fun exploring the school! And remember I'll be around to answer any questions! Catch ya later!". Just like yesterday, he jumped and disappeared out of nowhere. Zeke asked, "How does that stupid bear know about our plan to explore the school?". Kamek said, "Didn't you notice the cameras in every room?". Skylar said, "The Blockhead clearly did not.". I didn't pay much attention to the cameras. I thought that it was normal for schools to have cameras. I looked in my handbook to check out the secret I've received. Normally I'd respect others' privacy but I feel if I don't check it out at least once, Monokuma might punish me. The person who I received was Hoppy. There's no way that someone like Hoppy would have a dark secret right? But before I could read it Purple spoke up. He said, "Whoever has my secret, speak up now!". Tails said, "I don't think we should-". Purple said, "I don't care! I don't want anyone knowing my secret!".

Ender turned to me and asked, "Rainer, what should we do about the motive?". I said, "We should all make a pact. A pact to not share each other's secrets!". Kamek said, "You really think that everyone will follow that pact?". I responded, "I'm not sure but it'll help everyone feel less paranoid.". Hoppy asked, "Should we tell each other who we got?". Jolt said, "With how Purple is acting I don't think it's a good idea.". I said, "I'm with Jolt on this. We should just ignore the motive.". Dustin chuckled and said, "Whatever you say!". I'm curious what Dustin got? Jolt said, "Should we start the investigation?". I said, "Yeah, at dinner time we'll meet up in the dining room. We'll share if we find any clues or any method of escape then.". Mario said, "Sounds like a plan!". Kamek said, "You guys have fun with that.". Flappy said, "I'm leaving too, later!". Kamek and Flappy left the gym. Jolt and Flame came up to me and Flame asked, "So should we stick together?". Jolt said, "Usually I would say yes but it might be a good idea to get to know everyone else.". I said, "I agree with Jolt. We should split up so we can get to know the others.". Flame said, "It sounds like a plan, I guess.". I said, "Good luck and be careful guys.". Jolt said, "You too sis!".

We then split up to look for someone to partner with. Now, who should I search with? I then noticed Ender talking with Carrie. Carrie said, "So we should build trust with everyone?". Ender said, "I feel like that's the best thing we can do right now.". Carrie said, "I trust you! I'll go and find someone to search with! Good luck Ender!". Ender said, "You too Carrie.". It seems like others have the same idea as us. Maybe I can bond with Ender? Then I noticed that Ender wasn't there anymore. I whispered to myself, "Where did he go?". Then I heard Ender say, "Hello Rainer.". I yelped and turned behind me to see Ender standing there. I said, "E-Ender! You scared me!". Ender said, "Sorry about that. I was curious if you wanted to investigate together?". I said, "S-Sure!". Ender asked, "Where should we look first?". I said, "Maybe we should search the gym first.". Ender said, "Sounds good.". We started to investigate the gym but there wasn't much there. Ender said, "There isn't much in this gym.". I said, "Yeah, other than Monokuma's podium it's just a normal school gym.". Ender said, "Maybe we should look somewhere else?". I said, "Sounds like a good idea to me.". We then left the gym.

We enter the room that leads to the gym. I asked, "What is this room again?". Ender said, "The E-handbook says that this is the trophy room.". I looked to the left wall to see the trophy case. The case was filled with trophies. One thing that I noticed was that there was a sword in the trophy case. I asked, "Is that a sword?". Ender took the sword out of the case and said, "This isn't a real sword. It's fake.". I breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank god it's not real.". We now enter the hallway. Ender said, "So where should we investigate next?". I said, "I want to investigate the areas I haven't seen yet.". Ender said, "Well I believe barely anyone checked the rooms in the dorm side yet.". I said, "That sounds good! Let's make sure that we didn't miss a room on this side.". Ender said, "Sounds good to me.". I pulled out my E-handbook and looked at the map. I said, "I don't think I've seen the nurse's office, the school shop or the AV room yet.". Ender said, "The nurse's office is the closest room to us.". I said, "Let's go!". We then headed towards the nurse's office.

We entered the nurse's office. It had the nurse's desk and chair, filing cabinets, and medical cabinets. It also had a chair for the students. And a mini fridge in the back right corner. Dustin was searching the desk. I said, "Hey Dustin, have you found anything here?". Dustin said, "Nothing useful.". Ender noticed the mini fridge and asked, "Have you checked the white chest over there?". Dustin asked, "What white chest?". I went to the fridge and opened it. It had blood bags in it. I said, "I-It has b-blood bags in it!". Dustin asked, "Did you mean the fridge?". Ender asked, "What's a fridge?". Dustin said, "Whatever… So where do you think they got the blood?". I said, "I-I honestly don't want to know!". I closed the fridge and backed away from it. Dustin said, "Ugh! This stupid room has nothing but medical supplies!". Ender asked, "Wait, how is that useless?". I added, "Yeah, we can use that for when someone gets injured!". Dustin said, "Yeah, but it's not what I was looking for!". He's talking about clues, right? Dustin added, "You guys should look somewhere else.". I said, "O-Ok? Let's go, Ender.". We left the nurse's office.

The next room we entered was the school's shop. It had a fridge full of sodas, a bunch of stuff to decorate our rooms with and candy. It also has armor stands for some reason. On the counter it had some sort of giant Monokuma gumball machine? Mr. Krabs was trying to open the cash register. And Carrie was looking at the giant Monokuma gumball machine. Mr. Krabs said, "C'mon why won't this register open!". Carrie said, "I don't think there's any clues in that thing.". Mr. Krabs said, "But there could be money in it!". Ender said, "Hey, Carrie!". Carrie said, "Oh hey Ender!". I asked, "Did you guys find anything in here?". Carrie responded, "Well, I found this weird machine.". I asked, "What does it do?". Then Monokuma's voice said, "That's my cue! Puh hu hu!".

Monokuma appeared out of the ground and said, "Did the mermaid dog ask a question?". I sighed and said, "Yes, what does this machine do?". Monokuma said, "This baby is the Monokuma Prize Machine!". Monokuma pulled out a coin with his face on it. Monokuma said, "Use Mono-Coins on this thing and get a present you can give each other! Or be selfish and keep it for yourself! I don't care!". Mr. Krabs said, "There's money in this school! How do we get these coins?". Monokuma said, "They're hidden all over the school! But since you're the first ones to find the machine I'll give each of you a free Mono-Coin!". Monokuma gave us a Mono-Coin each. Monokuma asked, "Does anyone want to try out the prize machine?". I'm not sure if I trust this. Ender asked, "Should we test this machine?". Carrie said, "It'll be a good idea to make sure it's safe. But who-". I sighed and nervously walked up to the machine. I hesitantly put my Mono-Coin in the machine, and a big prize capsule came out. I hesitantly opened it and there was an empty journal in it. Ender said, "It turns out Monokuma wasn't lying to us.". Monokuma said, "Why would I ever lie to you, knock off Slender man?". I said, "Monokuma, can you please go away!". Monokuma said, "UGH! Fine!". Monokuma then jumped and disappeared through the floor. I said, "I think it's time to search the next room.". Ender said, "See you later Carrie.". Carrie said, "Later guys!". We then left the school's shop.

We then went to the AV room. The AV room had speakers and monitors. Also there were a bunch of chairs too. I'm guessing this is a place where we can watch movies. Hoppy was there looking at a screen. Hoppy noticed us and hopped to us. Hoppy said, "Hey guys!". Ender said, "Hey Hoppy, do you know what this room is?". Hoppy said, "Oh, this room has a bunch of monitors that can play movies! There's a shelf over there that has boxes of tapes!". I asked, "Do you think any of these tapes could help us?". Hoppy said, "Um, no these tapes are of old shows and movies, heh!". Ender asked, "Are you sure there's no clues in these tapes?". Hoppy said, "I've been looking through the tapes. There's no clues sadly.". I asked, "Is there anything else in the room?". Hoppy said, "No, this is everything.". Ender sighed and said, "Hopefully the next room has something.". Hoppy said, "I'm going to head out too.". Hoppy picked up a tape and hid it from us. We then exited the AV room.

Hoppy followed us to some sort of changing room. The room had lockers, benches and a metal door with a dial on the left wall. Jolt and Kenny were there. I said, "Hey guys, what did you find in here?". Kenny mumbled, "Well I searched the lockers and there's nothing in them.". Hoppy asked, "Where does this door lead to?". Kenny mumbled, "That door leads to a sauna.". I said, "This school has a sauna? Cool!". Ender asked, "What's a sauna?". While Hoppy and Kenny were explaining what a sauna is to Ender, I turned to Jolt. He was looking up at the walls of the room. I walked up to him and asked, "Is everything ok Jolt?". Jolt said, "Yeah, I just noticed something.". I asked, "What did you notice?". He replied, "Look at the walls, what do you notice about them?". I looked at the walls and I didn't notice anything. I said, "I don't see anything on the walls.". Jolt said, "Exactly. There's nothing on the walls, including cameras!". He's right, there's no cameras in this room at all. I said, "Yeah there's no cameras in here at all.". Ender asked, "But there are cameras in every other room. Why not this one?". Jolt said, "I'm guessing for privacy reasons.". I said, "Well at least this is good information to know.". Ender said, "Maybe this side of the school has more information?". Hoppy said, "You guys go ahead, I'm going to my dorm.". Is it about the tape she took from the AV room? I'll ask her about it later. We left the sauna.

Me and Ender then entered what looked to be a laundry room. There's empty laundry baskets, washing machines and drying machines. Mario was in here. Mario said, "Hey guys! How's investigating going?". I said, "It could be better.". Ender asked, "What did you find in this room?". Mario said, "Well this is just a normal laundry room. Nothing special here at all. But at least Monokuma isn't charging us money to wash our clothes.". Mario then pulled out a Mono-Coin and said, "I found this thing though. I thought it went to the machines but there's no coin slots.". I said, "That's a Mono-Coin, it goes to the school shop.". Mario said, "Oh! Well I guess I know where I'm going next.". Mario then left the laundry room. I said, "Let's go to the next room.". We then left the laundry room.

We walked past the bathrooms and entered The trash room basically has an incinerator in the center of the back wall. There were empty trash cans on the left wall and shelves with trash bags and glove boxes on the right wall. For some reason the gate to the incinerator was unlocked. Zeke was trying to open the gate while Skylar was looking through the empty trash cans. I asked, "What is this room?". Skylar said, "Don't know. We're trying to figure it out ourselves.". Zeke said, "I think this weird machine might give us a clue.". I said, "That looks like an incinerator. It'll burn you alive if you're not careful.". Monokuma's voice said, "You're smarter than you look!". Zeke said, "Oh god not him!". Monokuma appeared out of the ground and said, "You better believe it's the lovable me!". Skylar said, "You're anything but lovable!". I asked, "Monokuma, what is this room?". Monokuma said, "This is the trash room! This is where your trash goes on trash day!". Ender said, "And the trash goes in that machine?". Monokuma said, "Yep I'll give the key to the incinerator to one of you whenever it's time to take care of the trash!". One of us having the ability to access the incinerator doesn't sound good. Monokuma said, "I got to go! See you later!" and then he jumped and disappeared. Ender said, "It's probably best if we move on to the next room.". I said, "Yeah, I agree.". Skylar said, "Well see you later then.". We then left the trash room.

We're now in the dorm hallway. The dorm order is Rocky, Hoppy, me, Mario, Mr. Krabs, Jolt, Flame, Skylar, Zeke, Dustin, Purple, Tails, Sonic, Kamek, Flappy, Kenny, Carrie, and Ender. Flame and Purple were in the hallway. Flame asked, "Why are we looking for a vent again?". Purple said, "Uh, it's best to make sure that no one is going to use it to kill someone!". Flame said, "I doubt there's a vent where we can enter.". Purple said, "You never know Orange!". Flame said, "For the last time my name is Flame!". I went up to Flame and asked, "Hey is everything ok?". Flame sighed and said, "Yeah, it's just Purple is an interesting person.". Ender asked, "Have you guys found anything?". Flame said, "No, Purple made us look for vents in every room.". Purple said, "It's important to know where the vents are!". Flame sighed and asked, "Is it ok if I join you guys?". I said, "Of course you can.". Flame said, "I'll see you later Purple.". Purple said, "Whatever…". We left the dorm hallway.

We then entered a room full of shelves of supplies. Sonic, Tails and Rocky were searching through the shelves. Ender said, "This is the last room we haven't searched yet.". Flame said, "What is this room supposed to be?". Tails said, "This is a storage room.". I asked, "Storage room? What does it have?". Tails said, "It has supplies we need to survive in this school.". Sonic added, "Luckily nothing here can be used for killing.". Rocky went, "Hm Hm!". Ender asked, "So does this place have spare food?". Flame said, "Actually that'll be the pantry. You'll find it in the kitchen.". Tails asked, "How's the food stock?". Flame said, "It's a decent size and Monokuma told me last night that it gets refilled daily.". I said, "At Least we won't starve here.". Tails said, "Other than supplies there isn't really much here.". Flame said, "We should head to the dining room. It's almost dinner time.". Ender said, "Sounds like a good idea.". The six of us left the storage room.

Flame went to the kitchen while the rest of us stayed at the dining room. Eventually everyone came back to the dining room, including Flappy and Kamek. Mario asked, "What did everyone find? All I found was a coin.". Carrie said, "Well there's a Monokuma Prize Machine in the school's shop. If you put a Mono-Coin in you can get a gift that you can give to other people.". Mario said, "Oh yeah I tried that out after I found the coin. That machine gave me a green token with a W carved into it. I don't know what it means.". Dustin said, "There's medical supplies in the nurse's office.". Hoppy said, "There's a room where we can watch movies and shows through tapes!". Flappy said, "How is that useful?". Jolt said, "We're sharing what we found. And that's what she found.". Flappy said, "I bet you didn't find anything!". Jolt said, "I found more than you!". Flappy asked, "Ok, what did you find then?". Jolt said, "In the sauna and bathrooms there's no cameras!". Dustin said, "Really no cameras?". I said, "Yeah, it's true.". Sonic said, "There's a storage room full of supplies we need to survive.". Tails said, "And Flame told us about the pantry and how it gets refilled daily.". Zeke said, "The trash room has an incinerator behind a locked gate.". Skylar said, "But Monokuma will give one of us access to it on trash day to take care of the trash.". Carrie said, "That doesn't sound safe.". I said, "Yeah but Monokuma doesn't care.".

Kamek said, "Did no one find an escape route?". Zeke said, "It's not like you did anything to help.". Kamek said, "Well that's because I knew you wouldn't find an escape.". I said, "We knew we wouldn't but we did it so we can find any clues.". Ender said, "And at least we're familiar with our area now.". Carrie asked, "So what do we do now?! We barely found any clues.". Mario said, "And don't forget about the motive Monokuma gave us.". I said, "We can't give up! There has to be something hidden somewhere! And we keep our minds off the motive!". Purple said, "It's hard to, especially knowing that someone has my secret.". Kenny mumbled, "We don't really have a choice.". Flappy said, "I agree with Kenny.". Zeke asked, "What did he say?". Kenny mumbled something but I couldn't understand it. Flappy said, "I agree. Kenny you're smarter than I thought.". Kenny mumbled something else. How can Flappy understand him so well? Flame came out with lasagna and we all ate.

After dinner, we all went to do our own things. Me, Flame, and Jolt went to my dorm to talk until nighttime. I asked, "So how do you guys feel about the people you searched with?". Jolt said, "Kenny is a good kid. He's pretty hard to understand sometimes.". Flame said, "Purple is interesting. He calls people by colors and he only cares about looking for vents.". Jolt asked, "How was Ender?". I said, "Ender seems like a good person. But he seems not to know what some stuff is.". Which makes me want to get to know him more. Flame asked, "So what's our plan tomorrow?". I said, "We should keep getting to know the other students.". Jolt said, "Yeah, it's best to know who we can trust.". Flame said, "Sounds good!". Jolt then asked, "Hey do you guys remember how to use your Pokemon moves?". Flame said, "Actually I can't remember at all.". I said, "Yeah It's all a blur to me.". Jolt said, "Hm, it's weird that none of us can remember how to use our moves.". I said, "I'm sure we can figure out the mystery. We just have to stay calm.". My brothers both agreed. The three of us talked until the monitors turned on to show Monokuma. He said, "It is now 10 pm, Certain areas of the school will soon be locked! Good night!". We said good night to each other and Jolt and Flame left my dorm. Then I went to sleep.

Then the monitors turned on to reveal Monokuma and he said, "Rise and Shine students! Get ready for another beautiful day!". And then the monitor turned off. I woke up and got ready for the day. I then met everyone in the dining room. Mario asked, "So what are we doing today?". Skylar asked, "Are we going to investigate again today?". I said, "I think it's best for us to bond with each other today.". Hoppy said, "It would help us build trust!". Tails added, "And it could take our minds off of the motive!". I said, "That's what I was thinking too.". Mostly everyone liked my idea. Then Flame and Jolt came out with breakfast, which was french toast.

After breakfast, we all went to do our own thing. I walked around and found Kenny in the AV room. I went up to him and asked, "Hey Kenny, what are you up to?". Kenny mumbled, "I'm going to watch Terrance and Phillip, wanna join?". I never heard of that show but I wanted to get to know Kenny so I said, "Sure.". Kenny played Terrance and Phillip and I don't see how this is a kid's show. It's just two people farting on each other and other people. They also swear, which isn't allowed in kid's shows. After watching around 3 hours of the show, I decided to give Kenny a present. The only thing I had on me was the journal, so I gave it to him. Kenny mumbled, "Oh thank you!".

I asked, "So Kenny, can you tell me about yourself?". Kenny said, "Well, I'm from a mountain town called South park.". Then I couldn't understand the rest of what he said. I asked, "Can you repeat what you said?". Flappy came in and said, "He said that his family is the poorest family in town. So when they randomly chose him to join, he accepted so he could change things for them.". Kenny made a thumbs up to what Flappy said. I said, "Kenny I'm so sorry to hear that.". Kenny mumbled, "It's cool.". I then turned to Flappy and asked, "How can you understand Kenny so clearly?". Flappy said, "I just can, I don't understand how you guys can't.". He turned to Kenny and asked, "Hey Kenny, wanna hang out?". Kenny mumbled, "Sure" and followed Flappy. I think I bonded with Kenny today. I then left the AV room.

I spent some time in my dorm by myself before finding someone else to bond with. While I was relaxing in my dorm, I remembered that I didn't fully read my motive. But should I? I don't want to snoop on Hoppy's privacy. But if I don't read it once, I might get in trouble with Monokuma. I opened the motive file on the E-handbook and it says, "Hoppy Hopscotch's secret is that she was betrayed by one of her closest friends. It was so bad that she made sure that she forgot about it.". Betrayed by a friend? It was so bad that she made sure that she forgot about it? What happened to her? Does that tape she took have anything to do with this? I'll ask her about that later. I should go and bond with someone else. So I left my dorm.

As I was walking I searched for some mono-coins, so I can give people some gifts. After getting some gifts, I looked for someone to hang out with. Then I found Sonic and Tails in the gym. I said, "Hey guys, what's up?". Tails said, "Nothing much, Sonic wanted to train in here.". Sonic asked, "Hey Rainer, wanna race?". I said, "Um, sure! I'll race you!". Yeah, after seeing him running on day one, I knew I wasn't going to win. We raced for an hour. After racing with Sonic I decided to give him a present. I gave Sonic a plastic ring. Sonic said, "Thanks for the gift! This reminds me of the golden rings back at home.". Tails said, "If we had one of those rings, we would've had a way to escape.". I asked, "Really?". Sonic said, "Yeah, we just think of where we want to go and then throw the ring. The ring becomes a portal to the place we thought of.".

I said, "That sounds nice right now. Can you guys tell me about yourselves.". Sonic said, "Well we're a part of a group called The Freedom Fighters.". I asked, "Freedom Fighter.". Tails said, "The Freedom Fighters fight for freedom. It started ever since Dr. Robotnik took over Mobius.". Sonic said, "We managed to overthrow Robutnik". Tails said, "He's been trying to re-take over Mobius since then.". I said, "Wow, your lives are filled with adventures.". Tails asked, "What about you?". I said, "My life isn't as adventurous as yours. I mostly make sure my brothers don't hurt themselves from their antics.". Sonic said, "Your life sounds cool too.". Tails said, "It's about dinner time, maybe we should head to the dining hall.". Me and Sonic agreed and we went to the dining hall. I felt like I bonded with Sonic and Tails.

Purple said, "Where's orange and yellow with the food.". I asked, "Do you mean Flame and Jolt?". Purple said, "Yeah them. Sorry I don't know their names.". Zeke said, "You were in a conversation with me and them like 20 minutes ago.". Purple said, "I don't pay attention to names Green.". I'm guessing I'm the only one who he'll get the name right on. I asked, "Wasn't Mr. Krabs here with us like five minutes ago?". Kamek said, "He went to the kitchen to talk with Flame I believe.". I said, "I'm going to check on them.". Then I headed for the kitchen.

When I entered I found Mr. Krabs talking to Flame while he was at the stove, cooking. Flame looked annoyed. I walked up to Jolt to ask what was going on. Jolt said "Hey Rainer what's up?". I asked, "Nothing much, what's going on here?". Jolt said, "Just trying to help Flame out. Then Mr. Krabs wanted to talk to Flame. So I was just getting more ingredients for tonight's dinner.". I said, "Ok thanks for letting me know. I'm gonna see how things are going with Flame.". Jolt said, "Have fun.". I walked over to Flame and Mr. Krabs. Mr. Krabs was saying to Flame, "C'mon working for me as a second chef would benefit both of us.". Flame responded, "Sorry but I'm not interested. Plus with you being the 'Ultimate Cheapskate', I doubt the pay is good. Please leave me to cook dinner.". Mr. Krabs said, "I bet your food would be popular at the Krusty Krab! Well maybe not as popular as a krabby patty but still think of the money!".

I stepped in and said, "Hey Mr. Krabs, is it ok if you go and help set up the table? Flame needs to focus right now.". I wanted it to sound as polite as possible, so he wouldn't get angry with us. Mr. Krabs sighed and said, "You're right. I should let the lad focus on his cooking. See ya lot later.". Mr. Krabs grabbed the plates and utensils and left the kitchen. Flame made a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you Rainer for dealing with that. He doesn't seem like a bad guy but I think he only cares about money.". I said, "No problem bro! Do you guys need help?". Flame said, "Sure, you can help.". The three of us made dinner and brought it to everyone in the dining room. After dinner, me, Flame and Jolt hung out in Jolt's dorm.

Jolt asked, "Who did you guys get?". Flame asked, "What do you mean?". Jolt said, "For Monokuma's motive.". I said, "I'm not sure talking about that is a good idea.". Jolt said, "It's not like we're sharing their secrets. I'll go first, I got Sonic's secret.". Flame said, "Well, I-I got Zeke's secret.". I sighed and said, "I have Hoppy's secret.". Jolt said, "Hoppy? I doubt her secret is bad.". Her secret definitely made me worried about her. Flame said, "Hey, I was thinking that the three of us could make cinnamon buns for breakfast tomorrow.". I said, "Like the ones we made together as kids?". Flame said, "Yeah!" and Jolt said, "That sounds fun, I'm in!". I said, "I'm in too!". Then the monitors turned on to show Monokuma. He said, "It is now 10 pm, Certain areas of the school will soon be locked! Good night!". We said good night to each other and I went to my dorm and went to sleep.

I woke up to the monitors turning on to reveal Monokuma and he said, "Rise and Shine students! Get ready for another beautiful day!". And then the monitor turned off. I woke up and got ready for the day. Then my doorbell woke me up. I got up and opened my door to reveal Flame and Jolt. Flame said, "Good morning sis! How are you?". I said, "Ok I guess.". Jolt asked, "Ready to make breakfast?". I said, "Yep! Let's go!". We headed towards the kitchen at 7:30am. When we arrived, I… I… I couldn't believe my eyes. The sight left a chill in my spine. The faces on Jolt and Flame were the same as mine. S-S-Someone was d-dead in the kitchen!

17 students remain…

 

Chapter 3: The First Blood (Investigation)

Summary:

Rainer, Jolt and Flame has discovered someone dead in the kitchen! Now our 17 students will look around the school to look for clues that'll point them the killer. But what tricks does our killer have up their selves? What clues will our students find? Who is the victim? And will you be able to guess who the killer is?

Notes:

Hey guys! Hope you're enjoying the story so far! I hope you like the main protagonist change I made! I felt like I could do more with Rainer as the main Protagonist. I was going to release the investigation and class trial in the same chapter like I did last time but I want to keep the suspense. The class trial is getting close to being finished! Anyways, Enjoy the chapter!

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

Deadly Life

It was Kenny, The Ultimate Unlucky Kid! He was decapitated near the kitchen counter! His body was leaning against the counter. His head was on top of the counter. There was so much blood! There were cuts all over his legs. Then there was a sound from the speakers. It was a ding dong bing bong. Then we heard Monokuma's voice say, "Our first body has been discovered! Please meet in the kitchen for further instructions.". As soon as the announcement was played, Ender teleported in here like there was no tomorrow. Ender panicky said, "W-Who die-". He noticed the crime scene and said, "WHAT IN THE WORLD HAPPENED?!". I honestly wished I knew. Kenny seemed like a nice kid. But who would do this to a kid though?!

It took around five minutes for everyone to show up. Everyone was horrified, except for Rocky, I don't think he shows any emotions. Mario said, "Poor Kenny!". A terrified Carrie asked, "Why did someone have to die already?!". Purple said, "This is so brutal! For once I'm not sus!". Everyone gave him a weird look. What does he mean by that? Flappy said, "The poor kid didn't deserve this!". For once I felt bad for him. He and Kenny were starting to become friends.

Then Monokuma appeared out of nowhere and said, "WOW! This happened quicker than I thought. I'm guessing one of you really wants to graduate huh.". I asked, "What do you mean by graduate?". Monokuma said, "If you kill someone and get away with it, it's called graduating!". Kamek said, "Can you just explain what we're suppose to do?!". Monokuma said, "Ok, so now that a body has been discovered and you all arrived at the scene. We can start the investigation! You have a certain amount of time to find clues on who killed Kenny, the Ultimate Unlucky Kid! When the investigation is over, we'll head to the class trial room to begin the class trial! That's where you'll talk about the clues you've found and try to find the blackened! If you get it right, only the blackened will get punished! Get it wrong, everyone but the blackened will get punished!". Hoppy nervously asked, "What type of punishment a-are you gonna give?". Monokuma creepily said, "You'll see!". That answer sent a big chill down my spine. Then Monokuma said, "Have fun investigating!".

Monokuma added, "OH, before I forget. I've sent a 'Monokuma File' to all of your handbooks. It'll help with the investigation.", then he disappeared out of nowhere. A Monokuma File? I opened my handbook and checked it out. It showed a picture of Kenny and where his injuries are. The injuries shown was a huge slash through the neck, and cuts his legs. Even though his head was decapitated, no other injuries or losses happened to his head. Also has two sections below, the cause of death and time of death. The cause of death is decapitation. I'm pretty sure that was obvious. The time of death was 9:30 pm. Tails nervously said, "W-Wait, he d-died last night?!". Dustin said, "The killer clearly got out before the kitchen closed-". Purple interrupted, "But they had a thirty minute gap! They probably had enough time to tamper with the crime scene.". Thirty minute gap? I should ask Purple to clarify more on that. Dustin said, "I think it's wise for us to do an autopsy on the body.". Skylar said, "But did the file thing give us an autopsy already?". Dustin said, "I don't trust that bear to give us everything. He might've left stuff out.". I said, "I agree with Dustin. But who should do the autopsy?". Kamek said, "I'll do the autopsy.". Mario said, "I don't trust him to do the autopsy! What if he's the killer or if he helps the killer!". Ender said, "Mario I understand your doubts but we all have to work together if we want to solve Kenny's murder.". Mario said, "Fine! But I got my eye on you Kamek!". Kamek smirked and went to do the autopsy before anyone else could say anything.

Jolt asked, "While he does that, what should we do?". I said, "We should split up and look for any pieces of evidence.". Mario said, "Sounds good to me!". Zeke asked, "Can't we have breakfast first?". Carrie angrily yelled, "ZEKE!". Zeke said, "What I'm sorry! I just work better on a full stomach!". Skylar said, "Blockhead, there's more important things to worry about than breakfast!". Zeke said, "Easy for you to say, you don't have to eat!". I said, "Guys fighting isn't going to help!". Ender said, "Rainer's right! We have to work together if we want to solve this case!". Sonic said, "Yeah they're right! Let's go and solve this case!". Everyone then split up to look for clues. I need to find out who killed Kenny. I need to do it for him and everyone! It's time to start investigating!

Monokuma then appeared out of nowhere and said, "Hey mermaid dog!". I yelped and asked, "W-What do you want?!". Monokuma said, "I forgot to mention that you can keep track of all of the clues you find in your E-handbooks!". I said, "I can?". Monokuma said, "Yup! In the investigation app! You can take notes and take pictures!". I asked, "Why are you telling me this?". Monokuma said, "Gotta keep things interesting! Now I'm going to tell everyone else see ya!". Then he disappeared out of nowhere. Well, this information will make things easier. The first thing I should take note of is the Monokuma File. The information from that could help us.

Truth Bullet: Monokuma File

Now where to look first? Then Flappy flapped to me and said, "Hey Rainer, want to investigate together?". I asked, "You want to investigate with me? Why?". Flappy said, "I don't want to investigate alone in case someone attacks again. Plus I think you seem the most trusting person here.". This was unexpected. I said, "uh, s-sure?". I guess I'm investigating with Flappy. I asked, "So Flappy I think the best place to start investigating is the crime scene.". Flappy said, "Obviously captain obvious!". This is going to be a long investigation. I was looking around the kitchen and I saw Flame and Jolt checking out the kitchen knives. I said, "I think Flame and Jolt might've found something.". Flappy said, "Ugh, let's go and see then.". So we walked up to them to see if they found something.

I asked, "Hey guys, have you found something?". Jolt said, "Flame might have found something important.". Flappy said, "Yeah, sure he did.". Jolt asked, "Why is he here?". I said, "He wanted to investigate with me.". Jolt said, "Wow, suddenly you don't want to be alone?". Flappy said, "Just tell us what you found?". Flame asked, "Well, look at the knife display, isn't there something off about it?". At first I couldn't see what he was talking about but then I realized what was missing. A knife was missing! Flappy said, "There is a knife missing?". Flame said, "Yes but not just a normal knife. Last night I looked through these and I know what type of knives are in each spot. The missing knife is a butcher knife!". I said, "So someone took a butcher knife and didn't put it back?". Flame said, "Yes, I believe it's connected to Kenny's murder.". I said, "Thanks for the information guys.". I'm definitely going to take note of this. Flappy said, "I think we should continue our investigation. Let's go.". Jolt said, "Good luck with him sis.". I said, "Thanks.". I followed Flappy.

Truth Bullet: Missing Butcher Knife

As we were walking, I heard Zeke say, "What the?". I said, "Hey Flappy, I think Zeke found something.". Flappy said, "Let's check it out then.". Zeke was by the kitchen door, looking at the ground. We went up to Zeke. I asked, "Hey Zeke, what's up?". Zeke asked, "Hey Rainer can I see your paw real quick?". I asked, "Why do you want to see my-". Before I could finish Zeke grabbed my paw. I yelped as he lifted up my paw. Zeke said, "Hm, nope not a match.". I pulled back my paw and asked, "What is wrong with you?!". Zeke said, "Sorry Rainer, I needed to see if your paw matched.". Flappy asked, "Matched what?". Zeke said, "Look at the floor.". I looked at the floor and there were black paw prints. The trail of paw prints lead to Kenny's body. I said, "There's paw prints.". Zeke said, "Yes but there's something weird about these paw prints.". Flappy asked, "What is so weird about these paw prints? They look normal to me?". Zeke said, "They don't look natural. It's like someone planted them.". The paw prints are a little weird, and there's a weird smell coming from them. I said, "I also don't believe that paw prints are supposed to smell too.". Flappy said, "You guys are just paranoid. They're just normal paw prints!".

Zeke said, "Still, I wonder what made it show.". I asked, "What do you mean?". Zeke said, "Usually feet and paws don't leave prints without something like dirt or mud. So some hunters invented a spray bottle that'll reveal any type of foot or paw print.". Zeke then pulled out a spray bottle and said, "This is the Print Reveal Spray. I had to go someplace far away to get some cans.". Flappy asked, "So you just spray the ground and it reveals foot prints?". Zeke said, "Yes, it reveals prints that were made 24 hours prior.". Zeke sprayed the ground, from the door to the area where Kenny's body is. And it revealed multiple footprints. Zeke pointed to a trail that led to Kenny's body and said, "That trail must belong to Kenny.". I said, "Woah, this spray is really useful!". Flappy said, "Yeah, it's definitely interesting.". I'm taking note of all of this.

Truth Bullet: Weird pawprints

Truth Bullet: Print Reveal Spray

Flappy said, "We should be heading off, let's go Rainer.". I said, "O-Ok, later Zeke.". Zeke said, "Later.". Flappy said as we were walking, "I believe those paw prints belong to our killer.". I asked, "Why do you believe that?". Flappy said, "They go to the same place as Kenny's footprints did.". I said, "That's true but Zeke does have a point, those paw prints don't look right.". Flappy said, "He doesn't know what he's talking about.". I said, "But Kenny's footprints are weird too. They only led to where he died. It doesn't show him trying to escape the killer.". Flappy said, "Maybe the killer took him by surprise.". I said, "I think that's a real possibility.". I should take note of that.

Truth Bullet: Kenny's footprints

Flappy said, "Maybe we should check in on the autopsy. Kamek probably found something right now.". I said, "Sounds like a good idea.". We head over to the autopsy. We walked up to Kamek and I asked, "Hey Kamek, did you find anything?". Kamek said, "Yeah I found some stuff.". Flappy said, "Then can you tell us what you found?". Kamek asked, "Why should I tell you? You could be the killer!". Flappy said, "You could be the killer too, and if you don't share, you'll be the main suspect!". Kamek said, "I'll tell Rainer, not you!". Flappy said, "UGH, fine!". I'm pretty surprised that Kamek is willing to tell me. I thought he didn't trust anyone. I walked up to Kamek and asked, "So what did you find?". Kamek said, "Well other than his head was chopped off, I did find some deep cuts on his legs.". I asked, "Deep cuts? Deep enough for a butcher knife to make?". Kamek said, "Yeah, a butcher knife would definitely have done this. It looks like that someone wanted to make sure that he wouldn't escape.". I asked, "Is there anything else?". Kamek said, "Well, he doesn't have his E-handbook on him. I think someone took it.". Someone stole his E-handbook? Maybe it's a good idea to look for it. Kamek said, "Other than him looking surprised. That's basically all I could find.". I said, "Thank you Kamek. This is really helpful.". Kamek said, "No problem, I guess…".

Truth Bullet: Deep Cuts

Truth Bullet: Kenny's E-Handbook

Flappy walked up and said, "Hey I think I see something.". Kamek said, "What do you see Bird?". Flappy said, "Is that a chunk of yellow hair?". Me and Kamek looked and there was a yellow hair chunk right next to the body. Kamek said, "I guess I didn't notice that during the autopsy.". I picked it up and the hair chunk felt weird. It didn't even feel like hair. I said, "Doesn't this hair chunk feel weird to anyone else?". Kamek grabbed it and said, "It feels a little weird. But I'm curious as to why it's in a chunk? Hair doesn't fall out in a chunk.". Flappy said, "That doesn't matter! What matters is that it could belong to our killer!". Kamek sighed and said, "I guess you have a point.". I'm still taking note of everything that was said.

Truth Bullet: Yellow Hair

Flappy said, "We go look somewhere else, come on Rainer.". I said, "Bye Kamek!". Kamek said, "Later.". We then walked away from Kamek. Flappy asked, "So based on the evidence, who do you think the killer could be?". I said, "I'm not sure yet. There aren't enough clues yet.". Flappy said, "Hmmm, well I believe that's everything in the kitchen. Shall we check the dining room?". I said, "Yeah, sounds good.". We then entered the dining room. Once we entered, Ender and Carrie noticed us and called us over. I said, "I think Ender and Carrie found something!". Flappy said, "Let's go check it out then.". We then went up to Ender and Carrie.

I asked as we walked up to them, "Hey guys, did you find something?". Carrie said, "Yeah, we found an E-handbook in the dining room trash can!". I asked, "An E-handbook? Why is it in the trash can?". Flappy added, "And who does the E-handbook belong to?". Ender said, "Well, we're not sure who it belongs to. We can't open it without the face of its owner.". I then remember what Kamek told me in the autopsy. I said, "I believe the E-handbook belongs to Kenny.". Ender asked, "Why do you say that?". I said, "Kamek said that Kenny's E-handbook wasn't on him. We believed that the killer had taken it.". Flappy said, "The killer must have thrown it in the trash can to get rid of it.". Carrie said, "Well, do you think the E-handbook has any clues in it?". Flappy asked, "What clues could it have?". Carrie suggested, "Maybe Kenny had the killer's secret or something.". Ender said, "That's a good point. We should try to open and search the E-handbook.". I said, "Maybe Jolt can hack into it-". Flappy grabbed the E-handbook and said, "I don't trust him with something as important as this! I'll do it.". Ender asked, "Do you know how-". Flappy said, "Yes I do! Rainer I'm going to my dorm to open the E-handbook. You'll have to investigate alone now!". Before I could say anything, Flappy flapped away. Well, I should take note of the new information.

Truth Bullet Updated: Kenny's E-Handbook

Carrie said, "I'm glad that he left but I don't trust him with a possible important clue.". Ender said, "I agree with Carrie, we don't even know if he's innocent.". I said, "Well, the best we can do right now is search for more clues.". Ender sighed and said, "You're right. Come on Carrie let's continue searching. Good luck Rainer.". Carrie said, "See you later Rainer!". Ender grabbed Carrie and teleported away. I forgot he can teleport. Wait, can't we use his teleportation to escape the school?! I'll have to ask him about that later. Maybe I should look around the dorm hallway. Maybe the killer left something behind that no one noticed. I then left the dining room.

I then walked into the dorm hallway and I saw Skylar and Rocky standing outside of Kenny's dorm. I walked up to them and asked, "Hey guys, what are you up to?". Skylar said, "We were thinking that there could be something in Kenny's room that could help us.". I said, "I agree but we can't get into Kenny's dorm without his E-handbook.". Skylar asked, "Do you know where it is?". I said, "It's with Flappy. He's trying to search it for clues.". Skylar said, "Of course! So we can't get into the dorm then.". We then Monokuma's voice say, "Puh hu hu, I think I can help!". Monokuma popped out of the ground and I said, "Oh boy.". Skylar asked, "What are you doing here Monokuma?". Monokuma asked, "Didn't you want to get into Orange Jacket's dorm?". I asked, "How are you going to op-". Monokuma snapped his fingers and the dorm door opened. Skylar asked, "H-How did you do that?". Monokuma said, "Wouldn't you like to know, Bonehead?". I asked, "Why did you help us?". Monokuma said, "I want this to be a fair trial, so I opened up the victim's dorm for you to search! Good luck!". Monokuma jumped up and disappeared like he always does. Skylar said, "Well, let's go in.".

We then started searching Kenny's dorm for clues. Skylar said, "I can't believe this actually happened.". I said, "Same. Do you have any ideas on who could've done it?". Skylar said, "No but me, Rocky and Zeke were together last night.". I asked while searching Kenny's bed, "Really, what were you guys doing?". Skylar said while searching the closet, "Me and Zeke were trying to get Rocky to talk in classroom 1A. We were trying that until Monokuma's nighttime announcement.". So that alibi can prove three people's innocence, I need to remember that. I then started searching the desk. I found the journal I gave Kenny on the desk. I said, "Guys I found something!". Skylar asked, "What did you find?" as Rocky came out of the bathroom. I said, "I found Kenny's journal.". Skylar asked, "What does it say?".

"Today was an interesting day. I got along with someone I thought I wouldn't get along with. We understand each other really well! We hung out today and we're planning on hanging out again tonight. But Monokuma gave me their secret and I'm thinking of telling them about it. They have a right to know who has their secret."

I said, "And that's what it says. And I believe that Kenny wrote this note.". Rocky went, "Hmmm, Hmm!". Skylar said, "Do you think that Kenny was talking about the killer in this note?". I said, "There's no doubt about that.". I put the journal back on the desk and walked up to Skylar and Rocky. Skylar said, "So this note reveals why Kenny was in the kitchen. He was hanging out with the killer.". I added, "And the killer and Kenny became friends.". Skylar said, "Also Kenny wanted to tell the killer that he had a secret.". That could be the possible reason why Kenny was killed. I should take note of what Kenny wrote. I said, "I believe that's everything in the dorm.". Skylar said, "I agree.". We then left Kenny's dorm.

Truth Bullet: Skylar's Alibi

Truth Bullet: Kenny's Journal

After leaving Kenny's dorm, I split off from Skylar and Rocky. I then went to the trash room. I want to see if anyone tried to get rid of some evidence. When I entered the room, Sonic and Tails were searching the trash cans. I walked up to them and asked, "Hey guys, have you found anything?". Tails said, "There's not much in the trash cans.". Sonic said, "But there's one trash can that has some stuff.". I asked, "What does it have?". Sonic said, "It had a pair of scissors and yellow hair.". I said, "Yellow hair?! Can I see this trash can?". Sonic showed me to the trash can that had it. Sonic said, "Here it is!". I picked up the yellow hair and it felt like the yellow hair chunk from earlier. I then picked up the pair of scissors. Tails asked, "Is there something about those things?". I said, "There's yellow hair that's just like this near Kenny's body.". Tails said, "Really? So does that mean the scissors are connected to the case too?". I said, "Probably but I don't know how yet?". Sonic said, "Maybe someone used those scissors to get the hair?". Tails asked, "But why would they do that though?". I said, "I don't know but it's a good theory to keep in mind.".

Truth Bullet: Scissors

Sonic said, "Well, there's not much in the room. We should look somewhere else.". I said, "Yeah, I'll see you guys later.". We then left the trash room. I then decided to look in the storage room. Hoppy and Mr. Krabs were looking on the right side while Dustin was looking on the left side. I went up to Mr. Krabs and Hoppy and Hoppy said, "Hey Rainer, we think we found something.". Mr. Krabs said, "I still don't think it's connected with the murder though.". I asked, "What did you find?". Hoppy said, "We found an opened paint bucket hidden in this corner.". I saw it was an open paint bucket for black paint. It also has the same smell as the pawprints. Hoppy asked, "Do you think it's a clue?". Mr. Krabs said, "I don't think it is.". Dustin said, "Well I think I found something that goes with it.". Hoppy asked, "What did you find?". Dustin brought over a paintbrush with bite marks on it. Dustin said, "I found a paintbrush hidden under a shelf.". Mr. Krabs asked, "Why does it have bite marks on it?". Dustin said, "I don't know, I was curious about that too.". I'm going to take note of these things.

Truth Bullet: Paint Bucket

Truth Bullet: Paintbrush

Mr. Krabs said, "I don't think the bucket or brush is connected to the murder.". I said, "Actually I'm glad you guys showed me this stuff.". Dustin asked, "Why?". I said, "I have a feeling that these would be good to keep in mind.". Mr. Krabs said, "Uh, ok?". I asked, "Is there anything else here?". Dustin said, "Not that we know of.". I then asked Dustin, "Hey Dustin, do you know where Purple is? I want to ask him something.". Dustin said, "I believe him and the red dinosaur went to look in the classrooms since they're next to the dorm side of the school.". I said, "Thanks, I'm going to go talk with them.". Dustin asked, "No problem, we'll continue looking here.". I said, "Ok, good luck guys!". Hoppy said, "Later Rainer!". I then left the storage room.

I then exited the dorm side of the school and entered the school side of the school. I found Mario and Purple talking in front of the two classrooms. I said "Hey guys.". Purple asked, "What do you want Blue?". Mario said, "She probably wants to know what we found. We didn't find anything.". I said, "Well I also came to ask Purple a question.". Purple asked, "What's the question?". I asked, "Purple, you said something about a 30 minute gap earlier. Can you explain what you meant?". Purple said, "Well Kid Orange was killed at 9:30 pm and nighttime is at 10:00 pm. The killer had 30 minutes to do whatever they wanted to the crime scene.". I asked, "Why did they have 30 minutes? Wouldn't they have all night?". Mario said, "Actually, no they wouldn't. Remember Monokuma's nighttime announcement? He says that certain locations will be closed soon. That includes the kitchen.". Purple said, "Exactly the killer had limited time to mess with the crime scene.". I said, "That's actually really good information. Thanks guys!". Mario said, "No problem!".

Truth Bullet: 30 Minute Gap

Another ding dong bing bong sound and then Monokuma said on the speakers, "Investigation is over! Please meet by the red door!". The red door I found on day one. Looks like I'm finally gonna find out where that door leads. Mario said, "Welp time is up. Let's go before we get in trouble by Monokuma.". Purple said, "I agree with Red. Let's get this emergency meeting over with!". The three of us headed towards the big red door. We were the first ones at the red door. But everyone showed up not too long after. Tails said, "I have a bad feeling about this.". Carrie said, "I have a bad feeling too.". Ender asked, "Hey Flappy, did you find anything on Kenny's E-handbook?". Flappy said, "I'll tell you during the trial.". I went up to Jolt and Flame and asked, "How are you guys feeling?". Flame said, "I'm really nervous.". Jolt said, "Yeah same.". I said, "I am too but I know we can do it.". Jolt said, "I'll try my best!". Flame said, "Same.". Sonic asked, "Do you guys think we have enough clues to find out the culprit?!". Tails said, "I don't know Sonic.". Hoppy said, "As long as we work together we'll get through this!". I said, "I agree with Hoppy.". We heard the doors open and it revealed an elevator. Monokuma's voice said, "Everyone may now enter the elevator!". As I started to head to the elevator, Ender stopped me. He said, "Hey before we go head to the elevator I think it's a good idea to keep the rules in mind. It could help us in the trial.". He then went to the elevator. I'm not how the rules could help us but I'll keep them in mind.

Truth Bullet: The Rules

We went in the elevator and the doors closed. Kenny McCormick, the Ultimate Unlucky Kid. He was just an innocent kid. Even if most of us had a hard time understanding him. And one of us betrayed the pact and killed him! Now we have to find out who this person is! No matter what, I'll find out who broke and cave into Monokuma's wishes! I'll do this for Kenny! I'll do this for everyone! I'll reveal who the killer is! It's time for the first class trial!

Notes:

Hey, hope you're enjoying the chapter so far! If you haven't seen the original story, please let me know who you think the killer is? I would love to see your guys' guesses in the comments!

Chapter 4: The First Blood (Class Trial)

Summary:

It's time for the first class trial! Our 17 students will go over all of the clues they found to find out who killed Kenny! Will they be able to find out who the culprit is? Will they be able to find out what the culprit did? Or will the culprit win and get to leave the school?

Notes:

Hey everyone! I hope you're excited for the class trial! I worked so hard to make it better than the first version! Here's the truth bullets for the case. Hope you enjoy the trial!

Chapter Text

 

Truth Bullets:

Monokuma File: The cause of death is decapitation. The time of death was 9:30 PM. Even though his head was decapitated, no other injuries or losses happened to his head.

Missing Butcher Knife: A butcher knife is missing from the knife display.

Weird Pawprints: A trial of pawprints that lead to Kenny's body. But they look weird and have a weird smell.

Print Reveal Spray: A spray that can reveal prints like footprints and pawprints.

Kenny's Footprints: Kenny's footprints only lead to where he died. There's no sign of struggle or him trying to escape.

Deep Cuts: Deep cuts in his legs that would make it hard for him to move due to the pain.

Kenny's E-Handbook: Stolen from Kenny and found in the dining room's trash can. Could have the killer's secret.

Yellow Hair: Found near Kenny's body. But found in a chunk of hair and it has a weird texture that doesn't feel like normal hair.

Skylar's Alibi: Skylar, and Zeke were in classroom 1A trying to get Rocky to talk.

Kenny's Journal: Kenny made a new friend and they're going to hang out in the kitchen later that night. He wants to tell them that he has their secret.

Scissors: Found in a trash can with yellow hair

Paint Bucket: An opened paint bucket that smells like the pawprints

Paintbrush: A paintbrush with bite marks on the handle

30 Minute Gap: The killer had 30 minutes before the kitchen was closed to mess with the crime scene.

The Rules: Ender thinks the rules of the killing game might be useful in the trial

The elevator went down. When the doors opened it revealed what it looks like: a big circle of 18 pedestals and a podium next to it. Monokuma was standing on the podium. Monokuma said, "Welcome to the class trial room! This is where the class trials will take place! You all will sit on the pedestals and talk about the case to find the blackened! Now find your assigned seat!". I wish we could've picked our seats but unfortunately our 'headmaster' chose for us. The seat arrangement was Me, Dustin, Flame, Zeke, Mr. Krabs, Sonic, Skylar, Purple, Hoppy, Kamek, Tails, Rocky, Carrie, Mario, Jolt, Professor Duck, Ender, Monokuma's podium, then back to me. In between Dustin and Flame there was a portrait of Kenny with a red X over him.

Monokuma said, "Now I'll start the class trial with a simple explanation of the rules! You all must talk about all of the clues you've found during the investigation through non-stop debates, rebuttals, and other events! Connect each clue to reveal who the possible blackened is! Once you all are ready, we'll begin the vote, where you must vote who you think the blackened is! The person with the majority votes will be your guess! Guess right the innocents wins. Guess wrong only the killer wins! Any questions?". Flame nervously asked, "What is this next to me?". He was pointing to the portrait. Monokuma answered, "That is Kenny's death portrait! It wouldn't be fair for Kenny to miss out on the trial because he's dead! So I put a portrait where he would've sat, so he could be a part of the trial too!". Zeke asked, "How do we know that Monokuma didn't kill Kenny?". Sonic said, "Yeah, Monokuma would totally kill someone without a doubt!". Monokuma said, "Not this again! I DIDN'T KILL THE BRAT!". Jolt asked, "How do we know you're not lying?". I took a second to think…

Why can't the killer be Monokuma?

It's against the rules

Monokuma has an alibi

Monokuma is too innocent to kill

Answer: It's against the rules

I said, "It's because it's against the rules. The rules said that Monokuma can't kill someone if they didn't break the rules.". Skylar said, "Monokuma could've still done it. There's no one here to punish him if he breaks the rules!". Dustin said, "But if Monokuma did kill Kenny, it would go against the whole point of the killing game!". Sonic sighed and said, "They do have a point…".

Monokuma said, "Now that's out of the way, let the first class trial BEGIN!". Ender asked, "So what should we talk about first?". Mario said, "If Monokuma didn't kill. I believe that Kamek could be our killer!". Sonic said, "Mario man we shouldn't point fingers at each other without any evidence.". I said, "I agree with Sonic. If we want to win this, then we have to go through a fair trial where everyone's voice is heard. And only point fingers if we have reasons.". Mario sighed and said, "Yeah, you guys are right. Maybe we should start with the autopsy Kamek did?". I said, "That sounds like a good idea!". Zeke asked, "So wizard, what did you find?". Kamek said, "The most obvious thing I found was that someone chopped Kenny's head off.". Dustin asked, "What else did you find?". Kamek said, "Well there are some deep cuts on his legs and someone stole his E-handbook.". Purple asked, "Deep cuts? Do you know what caused them?". Kamek said, "No, I didn't find anything that led to the murder weapon.". Hoppy asked, "So should we talk about it?". Dustin said, "Yes, we need to find out what the murder weapon is!". I need to think of all of the clues we found. Maybe there's something that could help us?

Non-Stop Debate: Dustin said, "We need to figure out the murder weapon in order to move forward in the case!". Flappy said, "I think the murder weapon doesn't matter.". Dustin said, "Yes it does! It helps us understand what the killer did!". Mario said, "We're getting off track! Let's continue talking about the weapon!". Tails said, "The murder weapon has to be something that can chop off heads.". Kamek said, "And can make deep cuts on Kenny's legs.". Zeke said, "The weapon has to be a sword!". Skylar said, "I don't believe there are swords here.". Purple said, "It could be a normal knife.". Mr. Krabs said, "A knife could make those cuts!". Kamek said, "And I guess you can sharpen a knife enough to chop a head off.". Hoppy said, "Awesome! We figured out the murder weapon!".

Something from that debate doesn't sound right? Maybe they said the wrong type of weapon? Dustin said, "We need to figure out the murder weapon in order to move forward in the case!". Flappy said, "I think the murder weapon doesn't matter.". Dustin said, "Yes it does! It helps us understand what the killer did!". Mario said, "We're getting off track! Let's continue talking about the weapon!". Tails said, "The murder weapon has to be something that can chop off heads.". Kamek said, "And can make deep cuts on Kenny's legs.". Zeke said, "The weapon has to be a sword!". Skylar said, "I don't believe there are swords here.". Purple said, "It could be a normal knife.". I yelled, "No! That's wrong!". The non-stop debate has ended.

Truth Bullet Used: Missing Butcher Knife

I said, "I believe Purple's guess is close but it's not correct.". Purple asked, "What does that mean Blue?". I said, "Flame and Jolt looked at the knife display and found a knife was missing.". Sonic asked, "Didn't Purple say it could be a knife?". Purple asked, "Yeah, how am I wrong?!". I said, "Because you said the wrong type of knife. A different type of knife is missing.". Ender asked, "What type of knife is missing?". Flame said, "It's a butcher knife.". Hoppy said, "A-A butcher knife?!". Kamek said, "A butcher knife could do that damage really easily.". I said, "There's no way the missing butcher knife is a coincidence! It has to be the murder weapon!". Dustin said, "I have to agree, there's no coincidence.". Flappy said, "Congrats you lot figured out the murder weapon. We're nowhere close to the killer's identity.". Jolt asked, "Can you stop being so negative!". Flappy said, "You idio-… people know that we're supposed to discuss the killer's identity, not what he did!". Dustin said, "You clearly never solved a murder case before.". Zeke said, "Let's just ignore the bird. We know what the murder weapon is, so what should we talk about next?".

Kamek said, "Well, let's talk about the crime scene.". Carrie said, "The crime scene is Kenny's body leaning against the kitchen counter while his head is on the counter.". Kamek said, "I meant what the killer left behind.". Zeke asked, "What would the killer leave behind?". Kamek said, "Something like some type of DNA.". Skylar asked, "DNA?". Kamek growled and said, "Something like spit, hair, sweat! Anything that could belong to the killer basically!". Is there anything that the killer could've left behind?

Truth Bullet Selected: Yellow Hair

I said, "Hey Flappy, didn't you find yellow hair next to Kenny's body?". Kamek said, "Yes he did.". Flappy said, "Ah, I see what you're saying! The hair must belong to the killer!". Tails asked, "How do we know that it doesn't belong to Kenny?". Dustin said, "Yeah the hair could've come from the kid!". Flappy asked, "How would you know?". Dustin asked, "Has anyone seen what the kid's hair looks like?". Nobody answered. Dustin said, "Since no one has seen his hair, it's possible that it's the kid's hair.". I said, "If it is Kenny's hair then he has weird hair.". Jolt asked, "What do you mean Rainer?". I explained, "When I picked up the hair it felt weird. It had a different texture than normal hair.". Hoppy said, "Weird." and Tails asked, "What do you think it means?". Flappy said, "It doesn't mean anything! It's just normal hair!". Kamek said, "That we can't prove who it belongs to.". Mario said, "There has to be something that belongs to the killer!".

Non-Stop Debate: Mario said, "There has to be something that belongs to the killer!". Flappy said, "The yellow hair clearly came from the killer!". Mr. Krabs said, "How many times do we have to tell you that we can't prove that!". Dustin said, "Maybe they left something else behind.". Purple suggested, "Maybe they left the murder weapon behind?". Flappy asked, "Are you stupid?". Tails said, "The murder weapon is missing Purple.". Mr. Krabs said, "The murder probably left behind something else. Like maybe a piece of their clothing.". Hoppy said, "Oh! They could've left behind some footprints!". Skylar said, "I'm pretty sure they left a personal belonging. Like maybe their E-handbook?". Kamek asked, "Did no one find anything that the killer left behind?".

One of those suggestions sounds like something we found. Maybe that could belong to our killer. Mario said, "There has to be something that belongs to the killer!". Flappy said, "The yellow hair clearly came from the killer!". Mr. Krabs said, "How many times do we have to tell you that we can't prove that!". Dustin said, "Maybe they left something else behind.". Purple suggested, "Maybe they left the murder weapon behind?". Flappy asked, "Are you stupid?". Tails said, "The murder weapon is missing Purple.". Mr. Krabs said, "The murder probably left behind something else. Like maybe a piece of their clothing.". Hoppy said, "Oh! They could've left behind some footprints!". I said, "I agree with that!". The non-stop debate has ended.

Truth Bullet Used: Weird Pawprints

I said, "Hoppy is right. Zeke found some footprints, well more like pawprints that we believe belong to the killer!". Hoppy said, "Wait, I made a goal. Awesome!". Purple asked, "There were pawprints?". Zeke said, "There were black pawprints that lead to the area where Kenny's body was found. But the pawprints are weird.". Flappy said, "I saw the pawprints too and it looked like normal pawprints to me.". Kamek said, "I noticed the pawprints too. I wasn't sure if it was the killer's but if we do assume that, it gets rid of so many people on the suspect list.". Ender added, "Yes, people with exposed paws are our suspects.". Who would still be on the suspect list?

Select suspects:

Rainer (me),

Flame,

Hoppy,

Jolt

I said, "The only people with exposed paws that could make those prints are me, Flame, Hoppy and Jolt.". I know that me and my brothers are innocent. But I find it hard to believe that Hoppy is the killer. Kamek asked, "What about Carrie? I'm not sure if her feet are paws or not.". Carrie said, "If those prints belonged to me it would be blocky.". Skylar said, "She is correct, us blocky mobs leave behind blocky prints. Unlike you round mobs". Purple asked, "What did you call me?". Dustin asked, "What about Sonic and Tails? Don't foxes and hedgehogs have paws?". Tails said, "Yes foxes and hedgehogs do have paws, but me and Sonic wear gloves and shoes. We wouldn't leave behind those prints.". Sonic added, "And plus we wouldn't kill anyone!". Kamek said, "I think only 4 of us could make those tracks.".

Flappy said, "But I think we can clear two of those four from being a suspect.". Hoppy said, "You can clear two of us? How?". I have a feeling out of all the clues we talked about so far. There's one that he's going to bring back up again. Flappy said, "The yellow hair can lower the suspect list!". Jolt said, "For the last time, the hair could've come from Kenny!". I said, "Actually Jolt, I'm beginning to think that's not likely true.". Flame asked, "Really? How so?". I said, "Looking at the evidence, I'm not too sure that the hair came from Kenny. It probably came from someone else.". Jolt said, "There's a glitch in your statement!".

Rebuttal: Me and Jolt randomly appeared on a giant scale. Jolt asked, "What is this thing?". Monokuma appeared on a nearby platform. He said, "Welcome to the rebuttal arena! This is when two classmates fight to prove which statement is correct!". I said, "I'm not fighting Jolt!". Jolt said, "Yeah! There's no way I'm hurting Rainer!". Monokuma said, "I didn't mean literally dummies!". I asked, "Then how does this rebuttal work?". Monokuma said, "All you have to do is to defend your opinion as best as you can! Your platform will rise depending how strong of a statement you give. The first platform to reach the highest point, their opinion wins!". Jolt asked, "Is that all? There's nothing here that'll try to kill us?". Monokuma said, "Of course not Spiky! I care about your guys' safety!". Jolt rolled his eyes at Monokuma's statement. Jolt then said, "You really believe that the hair could belong to someone else? There's no doubt that it is Kenny's hair!". I said, "There is doubt, Jolt! And I'll prove it!".

Jolt said, "The hair was found near Kenny's body! It could've fallen off of Kenny during the murder!". My platform moved down a little, while his platform moved up. I said, "If that's the case then why is the hair grouped up in a chunk? Hair doesn't fall in chunks!". My platform moved up, while his platform moved down. Jolt said, "He probably lost more hair due to stress.". My platform moved down a little, while his platform moved up. I said, "If that did happen? Wouldn't there be more hair on the ground?". My platform moved up a little, while his platform moved down. Jolt said, "The killer could've put the hair together to clean up the crime scene!". I said, "Then why not get rid of the hair? Why did they leave the hair near the body?". My platform moved up, while his platform moved down. Jolt said, "The killer clearly ripped the hair off of Kenny's head and then threw it on the ground. Probably to distract us!". I said, "What is the point of that? Plus there's one piece of evidence that proves all of your claims wrong!". Jolt said, "Please Rainer, believe me, this will be bad for us if you don't!". I said, "The Monokuma File proves my claim!". Jolt's platform reached the lowest while mine reached the highest. The rebuttal has ended.

Truth Bullet Used: Monokuma File

I said, "The Monokuma File says that the head had no injuries or losses other than being decapitated.". Dustin asked, "No losses? Does that include hair?". Kamek said, "I'm guessing that is the case. Since hair is located on the head.". Skylar said, "So the hair isn't Kenny's?". Hoppy said, "Yeah, it must be from the killer!". Flappy chuckled. Flame asked, "What's so funny duck?". Flappy said, "First of all, I'm not a duck. And second, we're now down to two suspects!". Hoppy asked, "Really? Who are they?". We're down to two suspects? Who is he- no he isn't. I now understand what Jolt meant by, 'Please Rainer, believe me, this will be bad for us if you don't!'. Jolt said, "You better not-". Flappy said, "Kenny's killer is either Jolt or Flame!". Kamek said, "They are the only ones with paws and yellow hair.". I said, "There's no way that they killed Kenny! They were with me last night!". Mario said, "They could've done it after they left your room.". Purple said, "Or you could be covering for them!".

Mr. Krabs said, "I think I know which lad is the killer.". Carrie asked, "Really, who?". Mr. Krabs said, "I think the killer is Flame.". I yelled, "What?!". And Jolt asked, "Why?!". Mr. Krabs said, "Flame worked in the kitchen more than the rest of us. The lad would know where to find the knives.". Skylar said, "He did know where the butcher knife was.". Jolt said, "Flame would never kill anyone! He only wants to help keep us alive!". Dustin asked, "Why are you defending him? The killer is either him or you!". I know Flame and Jolt didn't kill Kenny. I need to find a way to prove their innocence!

Non-Stop Debate: Jolt said, "Flame would never kill anyone! He only wants to help keep us alive!". Dustin asked, "Why are you defending him? The killer is either him or you!". Jolt said, "Because the both of us are innocent!". Mario said, "Or both of you worked together. After all, you always helped Flame out in the kitchen.". Ender said, "Something doesn't feel right about this. What motive would they have to kill Kenny?". Tails said, "If they are guilty, it was probably to keep a secret.". Flame said, "We don't really have any dark secrets.". Flappy said, "You killed Kenny, so you and Jolt could both leave!". Jolt said, "But that doesn't make sense! What about the graduation rule?". Flappy said, "All you have to do is to kill and get away with it. There's nothing in that rule that proves that the both of you are innocent!".

I don't think I have a piece of evidence that goes against one of their statements. But maybe one of their statements could poke a hole in another statement. Jolt said, "Flame would never kill anyone! He only wants to help keep us alive!". Dustin asked, "Why are you defending him? The killer is either him or you!". Jolt said, "Because the both of us are innocent!". Mario said, "Or both of you worked together. After all, you always helped Flame out in the kitchen.". Ender said, "Something doesn't feel right about this. What motive would they have to kill Kenny?". Tails said, "If they are guilty, it was probably to keep a secret.". Flame said, "We don't really have any dark secrets.". Flappy said, "You killed Kenny, so you and Jolt could both leave!". I yelled, "No! That's wrong!".

Truth Bullet Used (Jolt's statement): the graduation rule

I said, "Jolt has a point about the rule about graduating.". Flappy asked, "And what would that be?". Jolt said, "I'll explain this one, the graduate rule says the student who kills and gets away with it gets to graduate. It says nothing about students working together on a murder.". Flappy asked, "How does that prove anything? There's still a possibility of both of them working together.". Carrie said, "It's also possible that only one of them could leave the school.". Zeke said, "Yeah, and aren't they brothers? Why would they leave one behind?". Kamek said, "One of them could've done it as an act of sacrifice.". Jolt asked, "But Rainer is our sister, why would we leave her behind!". Flappy said, "You knew that she wanted you to get out more than her.". Hoppy said, "Only if there was a way we can prove if both of them could leave or not.". Mario said, "Why don't we ask the one person who knows the rules better than the rest of us.". Zeke said, "You're talking about the annoying bear, aren't you?". Mario said, "Yes I am. Hey Monokuma!". Monokuma said, "Yes?". Mario asked, "What happens if the killer had an accomplice?". Monokuma said, "Oh, well the accomplice would count as an innocent even though they helped kill someone. Meaning if the killer wins, the accomplice doesn't leave the school with them. The accomplice also counts towards the BDA if they've seen the body!". Kamek said, "So having an accomplice is pointless?". Monokuma said, "I wouldn't say that. If the accomplice is willing to sacrifice themselves then it's worth it!".

I said, "Then that proves that they didn't work together to kill Kenny!". Purple said, "True but that doesn't prove that they're innocent!". Dustin said, "For once I agree with him. One of them could still be the killer! The evidence leads to only them!". Ender said, "I still find it hard to believe that it's them.". Sonic said, "Yeah they don't seem like the type of people to kill.". Mr. Krabs said, "It had to be one of those lads. They know the kitchen better than the rest of us!". Hoppy said, "Looks like our group is split.". Monokuma asked, "Wait, did the green Bugs Bunny say split?". Hoppy said, "Um, yes I did? Wait green Bugs Bunny?". Monokuma giggled all excitedly. Zeke asked, "What's so funny bear?". Monokuma said, "Looks like it's time for our first scrum debate!". I asked, "Scrum debate? What's a scrum debate?". Monokuma said, "Whenever someone says 'split', a scrum debate happens. It is where you guys pick a side and defend it! This is for when you guys can't decide on something. It could help you guys out a lot!". Dustin said, "So basically this is to help us decide an answer in an argument basically.". Monokuma said, "You got that right among us ripoff!". Dustin aggressively asked, "What did you call me?!". Monokuma said, "Now follow me to the scrum debate area!". We all followed Monokuma to the scrum debate.

Scrum Debate: We walked into the scrum debate arena. It had a row of pedestals on the left side and a row of pedestals on the right. Monokuma said, "Go on the left side if you think Flame and/or Jolt is the killer! Go on the right if you think they're innocent!". The left side had Flappy, Dustin, Mr. Krabs, Kamek, Tails, Carrie, Skylar, Mario, and Purple. The right side had Me, Flame, Jolt, Zeke, Rocky, Hoppy, Sonic, and Ender. Monokuma said, "Let the scrum debate BEGIN!".

Mario: "Either Flame or Jolt killed Kenny. All of the evidence points to them!". Sonic: "But there's some stuff that doesn't make sense! Like the motive behind the murder!". Tails: "They probably killed because of Monokuma's motive. They killed to protect their secrets.". Flame: "But we don't have any dark secrets. Our secrets aren't worth killing someone over!". Skylar: "Then you guys killed Kenny so you both could leave the school!". Hoppy: "But didn't Monokuma say that the accomplice can't leave with the killer if they win?". Kamek: "One of them probably planned to stay behind so the other one could leave.". Carrie: "And there are pawprints at the crime scene. It must be their pawprints!". Zeke: "We don't even know who the pawprints belong to. Plus there's something weird about the pawprints.". Rocky: "Hmm Hm!". Mr. Krabs: "The lads know the kitchen better than the rest of us! They'd know where to find the butcher knives!". Jolt: "But anyone could've found the butcher knives! It's not like they were hidden!". Dustin: "The yellow hair that was near Kenny could have only come from you two!". Purple: "Yeah, we already proved that it didn't come from the victim!". Ender: "Anyone could've planted the yellow hair. Plus there is one piece of evidence that proves their innocence.". Flappy: "There's no way this evidence could prove Jolt and Flame are innocent! Everything points to them!". Me: (What evidence is Ender talking about? Wait, could he be talking about…) "No, actually there is something that does prove their innocence!". Flappy: "Ok what is it?". Me: "They are two of the three people who found the body, so they can't be the killer!". Flappy: "What?!". The scrum debate has ended.

Truth Bullet Used: The Rules

Flappy asked, "They found the body? How in the world does that prove their innocence?!". Ender explained, "If you remember the rules, rule seven says when three students find a body, the Body Discovery Announcement will play. The killer is not included!". I added, "And when me, Flame and Jolt found the body this morning the Body Discovery Announcement played!". Tails said, "So that means Rainer, Jolt, and Flame are innocent!". Flappy asked, "How do we know that no one saw the body before them?". Dustin asked, "Did anyone else see the body before the announcement?". No one answered. Dustin said, "I guess that settles it. Rainer, Jolt or Flame couldn't have killed Kenny.". Hoppy said, "Awesome, we proved three people's innocence!". Kamek said, "You guys don't see the problem here?". Flame asked, "There's a problem? What is it?". Kamek said, "All of the evidence pointed to those two being the culprit! But if they're innocent…". Ender said, "Then there's no one else that the clues point to.". Kamek said, "Exactly! The only other ones that have paws don't have yellow hair. And the rest of us don't have yellow hair or paws!". Carrie asked, "Wait did we hit a dead end?!". No, there's no way we hit a dead end. There's gotta be something we missed!

Non-Stop Debate: Kamek said, "All of the evidence pointed to those two but if they're innocent.". Ender said, "Then there's no one else that the clues point to.". Kamek said, "Exactly! The only other ones that have paws don't have yellow hair. And the rest of us don't have yellow hair or paws!". Carrie asked, "Wait did we hit a dead end?!". Dustin said, "We should talk about what we know about the murder. Maybe we'll find what we got wrong.". Mario said, "Well we know that Kenny went to the kitchen. Probably to get a snack.". Tails added, "Then the killer came in the kitchen soon after.". Flame added, "The killer grabbed the butcher knife from the knife display.". Purple said, "Then they stabbed the victim multiple times and cut off the head!". Jolt added, "Then they left behind some yellow hair and pawprints.". Kamek said, "Nothing sounds wrong!".

There's definitely a piece of evidence that goes against one of their claims. Kamek said, "All of the evidence pointed to those two but if they're innocent.". Ender said, "Then there's no one else that the clues point to.". Kamek said, "Exactly! The only other ones that have paws don't have yellow hair. And the rest of us don't have yellow hair or paws!". Carrie asked, "Wait did we hit a dead end?!". Dustin said, "We should talk about what we know about the murder. Maybe we'll find what we got wrong.". Mario said, "Well we know that Kenny went to the kitchen. Probably to get a snack.". I yelled, "No! That's wrong!". The non-stop debate has ended.

Truth Bullet Used: Kenny's Journal

I said, "Actually Kenny didn't go to the kitchen to get a snack.". Mario asked, "Really? Then why did he go there?". I said, "He was meeting up with a friend.". Flappy asked, "And how would you know this?". I said, "In Kenny's dorm we found this journal that I gave Kenny. In this last page he wrote that he was going to hang out with a new friend in the kitchen.". Skylar said, "Oh yeah, it also said that he never thought he would get along with them.". Rocky went "Hmm Hm!". Hoppy said, "That's an awesome find!". Jolt added, "Yeah! Did Kenny say who he was meeting with?". I said, "No he never mentioned their name.". Kamek said, "I assume this guy who Kenny met up with is our killer.". I said, "I was thinking the same.". Carrie said, "So now we know why Kenny went to the kitchen but what are we missing?". Dustin said, "The killer had to do something that threw us off their track.". An unknown voice said, "I think I know what they did!". Jolt asked, "Who said that?". The unknown voice said, "I did!". Sonic asked, "Where are you?". The voice said, "Over here!". We then looked at Rocky and he said, "Hello!". Zeke and Skylar both said, "You can TALK?!". Rocky said, "Yep, I'm able to talk but I like being silent.". I said, "You said that you have a theory?". Rocky said, "Yep! Please hear me out!". I said, "Ok, Rocky, share your theory!".

Logic Refresh (Rocky): Rocky explained, "I have been listening to this whole trial and here's what I got from it. There is a bunch of evidence that points to Flame and Jolt. A chunk of yellow hair that was found near the body. Weird pawprints leading towards the body. The fact the murder weapon was taken from a place that they go to every day. And in the end, Jolt and Flame were proven innocent. But I don't think that everything is a coincidence. The clues feel like they were placed there on purpose. After all, wouldn't a killer want to get rid of clues that would point to them? Do you understand what I'm saying?". The killer planted fake evidence. I yelled, "I agree with that!". The logic refresh has ended.

I said, "I believe Rocky is right. I believe that the killer planted fake evidence!". Sonic said, "The killer planted evidence?". I said, "Yes, the killer tried to frame either Flame or Jolt to throw us off their trail!". Jolt said while lightning sparked from him, "Whoever tried to frame me or Flame will regret it!". Carrie said, "Why is there lightning coming from him?". I said, "Jolt calm down. You know what happens when you can't control your emotions!". I am his side, whoever framed them is so dead! Kamek said, "I think we should talk about what the killer did to frame Jolt and Flame. Maybe we can find some new information. Dustin said, "That's a good idea!

Non-Stop Debate: Dustin said, "So what did the killer do to frame Jolt and Flame?". Rocky said, "Well the two main clues that pointed to Jolt and Flame were the yellow hair and the pawprints.". Zeke asked, "Why do you sound like a little kid?". Rocky said, "I'm not a little kid. And it doesn't matter!". Mario asked, "Well where did the yellow hair come from?". Flappy said, "They probably cut the hair off of those two idiots.". Jolt said, "You better shut up duck!". Tails said, "The pawprints probably were there before the murder.". Flame said, "I don't remember seeing those prints before.". Tails said, "You probably didn't notice that you made those prints.". Mario said, "So the prints have nothing to do with the murder?". Skylar said, "The killer probably chose the kitchen to put more sus on Flame and Jolt.". Mr. Krabs added, "Makes sense, they do hang out there more than the rest of us.". Kamek said, "This didn't get us any new information!".

No, something doesn't sound right. One of the pieces of evidence was definitely planted. Dustin said, "So what did the killer do to frame Jolt and Flame?". Rocky said, "Well the two main clues that pointed to Jolt and Flame were the yellow hair and the pawprints.". Zeke asked, "Why do you sound like a little kid?". Rocky said, "I'm not a little kid. And it doesn't matter!". Mario asked, "Well where did the yellow hair come from?". Flappy said, "They probably cut the hair off of those two idiots.". Jolt said, "You better shut up duck!". Tails said, "The pawprints probably were there before the murder.". I yelled, "No! That's wrong!".

Truth Bullet Used: Print Reveal Spray

I said, "I believe Zeke, there's definitely something weird about those pawprints.". Tails asked, "What's so weird about them?". I said, "Does anyone know how those pawprints became visible?". Kamek said, "Well it doesn't look like those prints were made by something like mud or dirt.". I said, "Exactly, the only other way to reveal those prints is with Zeke's spray.". Dustin asked, "Spray?". Zeke said, "Yes, my Print Reveal Spray. I use it to reveal non-visible prints on the ground.". Kamek said, "But your world doesn't have something like that.". Zeke said, "I know, I had to go somewhere far away to get my hands on some cans.". Ender said, "I see what Rainer is saying. If Zeke's spray wasn't used to reveal the pawprints then how are they there?".

What evidence could've been used to make those pawprints?

Print Reveal Spray

Paintbrush

Paint Bucket

Answer: Paintbrush

I said, "Could a paintbrush make those prints?". Kamek said, "If the paintbrush had paint on it, sure. But I don't think a single paintbrush could make all of those prints by itself.". I said, "Yeah you're right.". The answer has to have some sort of similarity to the pawprints.

What evidence could've been used to make those pawprints?

Print Reveal Spray

Paintbrush

Paint Bucket

Answer: Paint Bucket

I said, "In the storage room I found an opened paint bucket.". Flappy asked, "What does that have to do with the pawprints?". I said, "Well, the pawprints had a weird smell on them. And when I found the paint bucket, it had the same smell.". Skylar asked, "Are you suggesting that the pawprints were painted on the floor?". Zeke added, "That would explain why they were weird.". Mr. Krabs said, "Hold up the paint bucket was actually used in the murder?". Dustin said, "Looks like it.". Hoppy asked, "Wow, the killer did a lot to cover up their crime but doesn't the kitchen close at night time? How did they do all of this in that short amount of time?". Purple said, "Actually Kid Orange died at 9:30 PM and the kitchen closes at 10 PM. That would give the killer 30 minutes to mess with the crime scene if they're fast enough.". Monokuma added, "And I do give time for people to leave the rooms when night time comes.". Dustin said, "Ok, well I think we should talk about alibis. Maybe we can catch someone in a lie!". Kamek said, "We probably should've talked about this earlier in the trial.". I said, "Well, it's still a good idea.". Ok, I got to pay really close attention to the alibis.

Non-Stop Debate: Dustin asked, "What was everyone doing during the time Kenny died?". Jolt said, "Me, Flame and Rainer were in my dorm hanging out.". Sonic said, "Me and Tails were racing in the gym.". Flappy said, "I was studying in classroom 1A.". Purple asked, "Why were you studying?". Flappy said, "Just because this school is being used for a killing game doesn't mean I can't learn!". Rocky said, "Skylar and Zeke were trying to get me to talk.". Zeke said, "Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was in a classroom.". Mr. Krabs said, "I was looking for Monocoins in the hallways.". Carrie said, "Me and Ender were in Ender's dorm. We were hanging out like the siblings did.". Mario said, "I was sleeping in my dorm.". Hoppy said, "I was in the AV room looking at some old movies.". Kamek said, "Like Mario I went to bed early too.". Dustin said, "I was in the sauna with Purple. I was keeping an eye on him since I don't trust him.". Tails said, "So that's everyone's alibis.". Dustin said, "I can't tell which alibi sounds fake!".

One of those alibis contradicts another alibi I heard during the investigation. Dustin asked, "What was everyone doing during the time Kenny died?". Jolt said, "Me, Flame and Rainer were in my dorm hanging out.". Sonic said, "Me and Tails were racing in the gym.". Flappy said, "I was studying in classroom 1A.". I yelled, "No! That's wrong!".

Truth Bullet Used: Skylar's Alibi

I said, "Flappy you're lying!". Flappy asked, "Oh really? Do you have any proof that I wasn't in classroom 1A?". I said, "During the investigation Skylar told me that he, Zeke and Rocky were in classroom 1A during Kenny's murder.". Skylar said, "Oh yeah that's true and we were the only ones in there.". Jolt said, "Well, well, well look who got caught in a lie!". Flappy nervously said, "W-Well I must have been mistaken! I was actually studying in my dorm!". Flame said, "That doesn't sound convincing.". Dustin said, "Looks like we have our new prime suspect!". Flappy yelled, "You morons really think I'm the killer?! I'm innocent I tell you!". Ender said, "If you are innocent then prove it to us!". Flappy said, "Gladly for one, how could I have killed him? He could've run faster than my flapping! He would've been able to escape before I could kill him!". Do I have any evidence that can prove how Flappy could attack Kenny? Maybe there's 2 pieces of evidence that could go together?

Selected Truth Bullets:

Deep Cuts

Kenny's footprints

I said, "Actually Kenny couldn't escape. There were deep cuts in his legs that made it hard for him to escape his killer.". Flappy said, "Kenny probably tried to escape before the killer stabbed him!". I said, "Unfortunately that's also wrong. Zeke's spray revealed that Kenny's footprints only go to where he died. There's no sign of struggle or escape.". Carrie said, "So you're saying that the killer stabbed Kenny's legs to make sure that he wouldn't escape!". Kamek added, "And he never saw it coming!". Flame said, "That's so messed up!". Sonic said, "That also explains how Flappy could've killed Kenny.". Flappy said, "HOLD IT! That's just a theory! Plus what about the pawprints?! If you guys think you're so smart, then explain to me how I made those pawprints?!". If we want to solve this murder that is important to figure out. How did he make those pawprints?".

Non-Stop Debate: Flappy shouted, "Since you all think you're so clever then answer me this, how did I make those pawprints!". Purple said, "Well you don't have paws to make them.". Dustin said, "You do know that paint was used to make them right?". Hoppy said, "That's right! Flappy doesn't need paws if the pawprints were painted on the ground!". Mr. Krabs said, "There was a paintbrush in the storage room. I thought it wasn't a clue but now I think it was used to make the prints.". Jolt said, "You painted those paw prints on the ground! Didn't you!". Flappy said, "So you're saying that I used a paintbrush to paint fake pawprints? It is a logical theory but there's one major hole in your logic! I don't have hands, I have wings. Which makes it impossible for me to grab things. Meaning that I can't hold the brush!". Mario said, "Maybe you used something else to hold the brush.". Kamek asked, "Like what could he have used?". Mario said, "I'm not sure.". Flappy said, "You have no proof that I painted those prints!".

We have no proof? No, there's definitely proof that he made those prints. Flappy shouted, "Since you all think you're so clever then answer me this, how did I make those pawprints!". Purple said, "Well you don't have paws to make them.". Dustin said, "You do know that paint was used to make them right?". Hoppy said, "That's right! Flappy doesn't need paws if the pawprints were painted on the ground!". Mr. Krabs said, "There was a paintbrush in the storage room. I thought it wasn't a clue but now I think it was used to make the prints.". Jolt said, "You painted those paw prints on the ground! Didn't you!". Flappy said, "So you're saying that I used a paintbrush to paint fake pawprints? It is a logical theory but there's one major hole in your logic! I don't have hands, I have wings. Which makes it impossible for me to grab things. Meaning that I can't hold the brush!". Mario said, "Maybe you used something else to hold the brush.". I yelled, "I agree with that!". The non-stop debate has ended.

Truth Bullet Used: Paintbrush

I said, "There's definitely a way he could've used the paintbrush!". Flappy asked, "Oh really? Well then tell us, how did I use the paintbrush if I have no hands?!". I said, "You used your teeth!". Flappy said, "Wah What?". Dustin said, "I see what Rainer is talking about. When I found the paintbrush there were bite marks on it. I found it weird for a paintbrush to have bite marks but if the user had no arms.". I added, "Then the user had to use their teeth to hold the brush!". Flappy said, "You idiots are acting like I'm the only armless person here! Carrie, Purple and Rocky could've easily done that too!". Dustin said, "But all three of them have alibis, Purple was with me in the sauna.". Ender said, "Carrie was hanging out with me in my dorm". Skylar said, "And Rocky was in a classroom with me and Zeke!". Purple said while waving his floating left hand, "And I do have hands. They're not attached to my body.". Flame asked, "Where did that come from- Wait how does that even work?". I said, "It doesn't matter. Flappy is the only armless person with no alibi!". Flappy yelled, "Stop your flapping!".

Rebuttal: Me and Flappy randomly appeared on a giant scale. I said, "This again?". Flappy yelled, "You really think that I'm the killer?! You are highly mistaken and I will show you the truth!". Looks like Flappy isn't accepting the truth. I got to prove that he's the one that killed Kenny!

Flappy said, "You're saying that I killed Kenny and planted fake evidence. How could I have enough time to plant all of the evidence? The murder happened right before night time!". My platform moved down a little, while his platform moved up a little. I said, "The murder happened 30 minutes before the kitchen closes. Also Monokuma waits a couple extra minutes for people to leave. You definitely had enough time to plant evidence!". My platform moved up, while his platform moved down. Flappy said, "Why would I plant evidence? If I did kill someone I would get rid of as much evidence as I could!". My platform moved down, while his platform moved up. I said, "You wanted us to think it was one of my brothers who killed Kenny! You have been pushing towards that conclusion this whole time!". My platform moved up, while his platform moved down. Flappy said, "But how could I do all of that with no hands?! How could I use that butcher knife, how could I plant evidence? If I'm able to grab and hold stuff?!". My platform moved down, while his platform moved up. I said, "If you used your teeth to use the paintbrush, you could use your teeth to do everything else!". My platform moved up, while his platform moved down. Flappy said, "What about my motive? You saw that me and Kenny were bonding. Why would I kill Kenny?!". I said, "Earlier in the trial we came to the conclusion that Kenny had the killer's secret. And I have reason why I still believe that!". My platform moved up, while his platform moved down. Flappy said, "Maybe Kenny does have the killer's secret! But there's no way to tell whose secret he got!". I said, "Actually we found his E-handbook. That could tell us whose secret he got!". My platform moved all the way up, while his platform moved all the way down. The rebuttal has ended.

Truth Bullet Used: Kenny's E-Handbook

I said, "During the investigation, Kamek found out that Kenny's E-Handbook was stolen from him.". Ender added, "And then me and Carrie found it in the dining room's trash can.". I added, "Then Flappy took the E-handbook to search it for clues.". Dustin said, "So Flappy, if you want to prove your innocence. Tell us whose secret Kenny got?". Flappy asked, "Uh, does it matter whose secret Kenny got? There's no way to prove that Kenny got the killer's secret!". Zeke said, "He has a point. We don't have any proof that Kenny got the killer's secret.". Carrie said, "There is a chance that he got a secret from someone who's innocent.". Rocky asked, "Is there any clue that could help us right now?". Is there anything that could prove that Kenny got the killer's secret?

Truth Bullet Selected: Kenny's Journal

I said, "Remember Kenny's journal? We all can agree that the person that Kenny was meeting is the killer right?". Kamek said, "There's no way they're not.". Flappy asked, "What does that have to do with anything?". I continued, "One thing he wrote in the book was that he wanted to tell them that he has their secret.". Jolt said, "If Kenny had this guy's secret.". Hoppy said, "Then we were right about Kenny having his killer's secret!". Flappy said, "That's just a theory! How do we even know that the guy Kenny was meeting up with is the killer?". Kamek said, "Them being the killer makes the most logical sense! There are no signs of there being a third person there!". Ender asked, "Flappy, whose secret did Kenny get?". Flappy said, "Well, here's the thing. I tried my best to get into the tablet but I couldn't log my way in.". Jolt said, "I doubt it! I bet you're lying to cover for yourself!". Flappy said, "Really? We need Kenny's face ID to get into his E-handbook! How could I get in?". Skylar asked, "Hey Monokuma, remember how you let us access Kenny's dorm? Did you do the same for Kenny's E-handbook?". Monokuma said, "Well, I wanted to make the trial as fair as possible. So I gave you guys access to Kenny's dorm and gave the bird access to Kenny's E-handbook.".

Ender said, "So, Flappy did have access to Kenny's E-handbook.". Dustin asked, "So Flappy, why aren't you telling us whose secret Kenny got?". Flappy said, "B-Because Monokuma made it so I couldn't see the name. He probably didn't want this to be too easy.". Mr. Krabs asked, "Then why didn't you tell us that in the first place? Why lie about it?". Jolt said, "He's lying because Kenny got his secret!". Flappy said, "No he didn't, I can say that for a fact! You guys have been accusing me for everything but what about the yellow hair? How could I plant yellow hair? Jolt and Flame wouldn't go anywhere near me ever since our first interaction!". Purple said, "You're yellow. It clearly came from you!". Flappy said, "I have yellow feathers! There's no way the hair came from me!". He does have a point. He couldn't get it from Jolt and Flame. And there's no one else here with yellow hair? So how did he get the yellow hair?

Logic Dive:

What was weird about the yellow hair?

The texture

The color

The size

The texture

In the trash room, what was found with yellow hair?

Kenny's E-handbook

Scissors

The missing butcher knife

Scissors

What could have Flappy used instead of hair?

His feathers

Thread

Paper

His feathers

Conclusion:  He used his feathers to make fake hair

I said, "I think I figured out why the hair feels weird. It's because it's fake hair!". Flame said, "He made fake hair?". Flappy asked, "And how do you suppose I made this 'fake hair'?". I asked, "Flappy, can I have a feather?". Flappy said, "What no!". Zeke said, "Come on, bird give her a feather!". Flappy yelled, "No way!". Jolt said, "That's it, I'm so sick of you!". Jolt aggressively grabbed a feather from Flappy's head. Flappy yelled, "OW! Not cool!". Jolt then came to me and handed me the feather. I said, "Thanks bro!". Jolt said, "No prob!". Now it's time for me to remake the fake hair.

Truth Bullet Selected: Scissors

I pulled out the scissors and used it on the feathers until I remade the fake hair. I held up the fake hair and said, "Flappy used these scissors to make fake hair out of his feathers!". Kamek said, "So this whole time the yellow hair was just remains of one of his feathers?". Carrie asked, "How did you figure that out?". I said, "Sonic and Tails found these scissors in a trash can in the trash room.". Sonic said, "Oh yeah! There was yellow hair in there with the scissors!". I said, "That's how I figured it out.". Flappy said, "No, that's not logical!". I said, "All of the evidence points to Flappy now. There's no doubt in my mind that he killed Kenny!". Flappy said, "No! How could I be the killer? Kenny wrote that he was meeting a friend?! I kept to myself this whole time!". I said, "Not true, I've seen you hanging out with Kenny before!". Skylar said, "Kenny did write that he never thought he would bond with this guy.". Flappy yelled, "NO! I'M NOT THE KILLER! YOU IDIOTS GOTTA BELIEVE ME!". Looks like he's not giving up but we all know that it's him. We just gotta prove it to him!

Panic Talk: Flappy: "I DIDN'T DO IT! I DIDN'T KILL KENNY! WHY WOULD I KILL HIM?! LIKE YOU SAID WE WERE BECOMING FRIENDS!". Tails: "You killed Kenny because he told you that he had your secret.". Flappy: "IF I DID KILL HIM? HOW WAS I ABLE TO KILL HIM? HIS WALKING WOULD BE FASTER THAN MY FLYING! HE WOULD'VE ESCAPED!". Kamek: "You used the butcher knife to stab his legs to make it hard for him to escape! He couldn't move due to the pain!". Flappy: "BUT WHAT ABOUT THE HAIR AND PAWPRINTS?! THEY COULD ONLY BELONG TO EITHER JOLT OR FLAME!". Flame: "You made fake hair and painted fake pawprints!". Jolt: "You did that so you could frame us!". Flappy: "BUT HOW COULD I DO ANY OF THIS I'M ABLE TO HOLD ANYTHING!". Dustin: "That's an easy question, you used your teeth!". Flappy: "I-IF I'M THE KILLER, HOW COULD KENNY TELL ME THAT HE HAD MY SECRET? HIS HOOD MAKES HIM HARD TO UNDERSTAND!". You're the only one who can fully understand him! Me: "It's over Flappy!". Flappy: "NO! NO! I'M NOT THE KILLER! YOU GOTTA BELIEVE ME!". The panic talk has ended.

Flappy asked. "What do you mean it's over?!". I said, "Because from day one you showed us that you could fully understand Kenny. I even asked you about it? And you said…".

Flashback: Flappy came in and said, "He said that his family is the poorest family in town. So when they randomly chose him to join, he accepted so he could change things for them.". Kenny made a thumbs up to what Flappy said. I said, "Kenny I'm so sorry to hear that.". Kenny mumbled, "It's cool.". I then turned to Flappy and asked, "How can you understand Kenny so clearly?". Flappy said, "I just can, I don't understand how you guys can't.".

Jolt said, "And that's checkmate! We caught our killer!". Flappy said, "No! You got it wrong! It has to be someone else!". Dustin said, "I think we should go over the whole case again. Just to make sure that we got everything right!". Flappy said, "You got nothing right! I'm innocent!". I said, "I agree with Dustin. Here's the truth of the case!".

Closing Argument:  "This case started from when Monokuma gave us our first motive. 'You've gotten someone's secret while someone else's gotten your secret'. Everyone including the killer didn't like the fact that someone here got a potentially bad secret from them. While Kenny didn't know that the person whose secret he got would become his killer. Jumping ahead to the day of the murder, I just finished hanging out with Kenny. I gave him a journal he could write stuff down in before our culprit took him to go hang out somewhere else. At some point those two must have split apart from each other and Kenny returned to his room. Kenny used his free time to write in that journal. He left the journal open on the page where he wrote that he became friends with someone that he never thought he'd bond with. And that he wants to tell them that he has their secret when they hang out again later that night. When it was time to meet up with our culprit they went to the kitchen. That's where they must have talked and hung out for a little. Sometime around 9:30 PM Kenny told our culprit that he had gotten their secret. Our culprit didn't know how to react. All they thought was to make sure that their secret doesn't get out no matter what! So while Kenny wasn't paying attention, they went to the knife display and grabbed a butcher knife with their teeth and stabbed Kenny in his legs! Kenny was taken by surprise, he had no idea that was coming. He would've tried to escape his attack but the pain from being stabbed in the legs made it hard for him to move! Then our culprit used the butcher knife to cut Kenny's head off! Causing Kenny to die!

Our killer knew they were in big trouble but they thought what if they pin this on someone else. They thought that they would get away with this scott free. So they decided to frame the two people who they fought with on our first day here. My brothers, Jolt and Flame. They must have known he had 30 minutes to plant evidence, so They worked as fast as he could. They first went to the storage room to get the paint bucket, paintbrush and a pair of scissors. They opened the paint bucket and used their teeth to hold the brush while they were painting fake pawprints on the floor. They most likely had no idea about Zeke's spray at the time. They then somehow used the scissors to cut up one of their feathers into hair-like substance. And planted it near Kenny's body. They then took Kenny's E-handbook so no one could look through it. They then took all the supplies they used and left the kitchen right before it closed for the night. Before they left the dining room, they threw Kenny's E-handbook in a nearby trash can. They first stopped in the storage room to put the paint bucket back and hid the paintbrush. They then hid the scissors in a trashcan in the trash room. But the scissors must have still had some of the fake hair on it when they threw it in there. They then thought of a perfect alibi of them studying in classroom 1A but they didn't know that Zeke, Skylar and Rocky were there during the time of the murder.".

I continued, "That's how you killed Kenny! Am I right, Flappy the Flapping Bird!". Flappy yelled, "NO! YOU'RE WRONG! YOU'VE NEVER BEEN MORE WRONG IN YOUR LIFE!". Monokuma asked, "So did you guys come to a decision?". Kamek said, "Yes we have.". Flappy yelled, "NO! WE HAVEN'T!". Monokuma said, "Ok! You may now use your E-handbooks to vote on who you think the killer is! You must vote or else!". Flappy said, "You're all making a grave mistake!". We took out our E-handbooks and voted. Monokuma said, The votes are in! Have you made the right choice or the dreadfully wrong one!". Monokuma pointed up to the tv screen that was above us. Flame asked, "Was that there the whole time?". Monokuma said, "Be quiet Fire Fluff!". Then the TV screen fastly scrolled through a photo of everyone here like a slot machine. It landed on Flappy and confetti appeared on the screen a couple seconds later. Monokuma said, "Ding! Ding! Ding! You guys are correct! Flappy the Ultimate Flyer is the one who killed Kenny!".

Hoppy asked, "H-How could you kill someone!". Flappy said, "He had my secret! I can't afford for it to get out in public! I'd be ruined!". Sonic asked, "What is this secret?". Flappy said, "I secretly stole green pipes from the mushroom kingdom. If they ever find out I'd be in big trouble!". Jolt said, "That's it? That's the really bad secret!". He started to spark electricity from his body. I said, "Jolt calm down!". Jolt yelled, "THAT'S THE SECRET YOU KILLED A KID OVER! THAT'S THE SECRET YOU TRIED TO FRAME ME OR MY BROTHER OVER!". I yelled, "Jolt! Calm down, you know what happ-". Jolt yelled, "THAT'S THE MOST STUPIDEST SECRET TO DO ALL THIS OVER!". Then two thunderbolts came from his fur. One hit Zeke and the other hit the wall. Skylar asked, "Woah! Zeke you ok?". Zeke groaned in pain. Carrie asked, "W-Woah, what just happened?". I said, "Whenever Jolt gets too upset, electricity comes from his body and shots out lighting bolts. The reason why I've been trying to keep him calm.". Jolt just stood there in silence. I turned to Flappy and asked, "Before anything else, I just gotta know. Why did you want to investigate with me?". Flappy said, "Because you were their leader. If anyone were to believe that those two were the killer it had to come from some they trusted the most. That was you.". I said, "So you were just using me.".

Monokuma said, "Hate to break up the fun but it's time to move on!". Dustin said, "Oh yeah you said if the killer gets caught they get a punishment.". Flappy sighed and asked, "So what's my punishment Monokuma?". Monokuma said, "Oh you punishment is a simple execution!". … D-Did he just say e-execution?! Mr. Krabs asked, "What did he just say?". Tails asked, "Did he say execution!". Monokuma said, "Yep! Electric Chair, Hanging, Beheading. Ex-E-Cu-Tion!". Hoppy asked, "B-But why kill him?! No one else deserves to die!". Monokuma said, "Why? Because he has disturbed the peaceful school life by killing a fellow student! Taking a life for a life sounds fair to me!". Flappy said, "B-But I didn't break a rule! You can only kill people if they break the rules!". Monokuma said, "Actually I count losing a class trial as breaking the rules!". Flappy looked terrified but then sighed and said, "Before I die, I want to say something. Rainer, you impressed me today. I never thought you'd figure out my full proof plan. You're smarter than I thought and have what it takes to survive this game. But remember, no matter what you do or say. There'll always be someone who'll fall for Monokuma's motive and kill! You can't protect everyone!". I stood there silent. Monokuma said, "Enough stalling! I've prepared a special punishment for Flappy the Flapping Bird! Let's give it everything we got! It's PUNISHMENT TIME!".

He pulled out a judge's mallet and whacked a button on his pedestal with it. Then he jumped off his pedestal and grabbed Flappy and dragged him off somewhere. Mario pointed to the TV screen. We look to the screen to see Flappy on a giant green pipe and a bunch of other green pipes in front of him. as soon as he noticed he started to flap his wings and took off. As he flapped his wings, he made it through multiple pipes. Monokuma was in a wight flying car with a smiling face on it and pulled out and pressed a button. Red plants with white lips and sharp teeth popped out of the pipes and tried to eat Flappy. Flappy saw this but he didn't look scared. Flappy dodged the plants as they lunged at him. Almost every pipe had an evil plant in it but Flappy dodged all of them. Monokuma looked mad and pressed the button again. The plants started to shoot fireballs. It was hard for him to dodge all of the fireballs and plants at the same time. Fireballs kept hitting him causing burns. And plants managed to bite him causing him to have bloody cuts. As soon as he got close enough to the exit, a giant plant came out of a pipe and lunged at him! Flappy couldn't dodge this one and got chomped. The screen then went black.

The horrified look on all of our faces after what we just saw. Monokuma came back and said, "Puh hu hu, wasn't that exhilarating?!". Flame yelled, "No! What was that?!". Monokuma said, "Uh, Flappy's execution!". Mr. Krabs said, "That was just horrifying!". Ender then said, "Hold up a minute! So if we fail to find the correct blackened we get EXECUTED?!" Monokuma said, "That's correct! Well congratulations everyone! You've made it through your first class trial! You may now exit the trial room!". Jolt looked horrified at what just happened. He said, "That guy was a major jerk but he didn't deserve this!". Hoppy asked, "I-Is that gonna happen to all of us!". Ender said, "No, if we stay strong we all will make it out alive. Right Rainer?". I said, "Y-Yeah we just need to work together! No one else will die!". Kamek said, "You're still believing in that delusion? After everything that happened today? Wow you guys are unbelievable. I'm going to my dorm. Have fun living your little fairy tale!".

I can't believe this just happened. Kenny getting murdered and watching Flappy get executed! And execution will be the punishment if we all fail! I don't know if I can handle this pressure! But I have to! I need to protect my brothers, I need to protect everyone who's left! Even if they do doubt me. I won't let Kamek's words discourage me. I'll make sure that no one else dies! At Least I hope I can.

16 students remain…

Chapter 5: Update

Chapter Text

Hey guys Tman57 here! Chapter 2 Daily Life is almost done! It's going to be the longest daily life I've ever written! I have some things I want to inform you guys with. First of all I just changed the prologue and Chapter 1. I wanted to replace Red Yoshi because he hadn't been enjoyable to write for me lately. Another reason is because I wanted to change who the mastermind is. I felt like Red Yoshi/Ditto was a lame Mastermind in the original so 1 of the 18 students is the new Mastermind! Also I'm changing up who the victims/killers are in some chapters to keep it interesting for the people who read the original. So I hope you guys enjoy the new changes I'm making to the story!

Chapter 6: Don't Give Into Greed (Daily Life)

Summary:

After surviving the first class trials, our 16 students continued their school life. They got to explore more of their world and was introduced to their second motive! Now they have to help each other to keep their mind off of the motive's reward while building trust with each other. But will someone let greed get to them?

Notes:

Hey guys! Chapter 2 daily life is finally done! This is the longest daily life that I have ever written and I'm proud of how it turned out! I feel like we got to know some of the characters more. Yes I know that we got to know one character more than the rest but I did it like that because they barely spoke in the last chapter. Hope you guys enjoy the daily life!

Daily Life

After the class trial ended we all entered the elevator and returned to the first floor. Everyone was standing in front of the red door. Except for Kamek, he went to his dorm when we exited the elevator. Ender asked, "Is everyone doing ok?". Skylar said, "I don't think a lot of us are after watching Flappy's execution.". Mr. Krabs looked at my brothers. He said, "Hey lads I'm sorry for believing you were the killer.". Carrie said, "Yeah, I'm really sorry too.". Jolt said nothing. Flame said, "It's ok guys. I don't blame you, everything was pointing to us.". Jolt said, "Yeah the blame goes to the jerk Flappy.". I asked, "Hey, are you feeling better Jolt?". Jolt said, "I-I don't know. I'm just going to my room.". Jolt left to go to his dorm. Zeke asked, "What about dinner dude?". Flame said, "I'll deliver it to him later. He needs some time to himself.". I don't blame Jolt for being upset. He and Flame were just framed for murder. I should check on him before going to bed.

We then headed to the dining room. When we entered the dining room everyone sat at the table while me and Flame went to the kitchen. While we were cooking dinner I asked, "Hey you doing ok Flame? That trial must have been really stressful for you.". Flame said, "Yeah, I was pretty scared that no one would believe us. Which reminds me, thanks for proving our innocence.". I said, "No problem, you know I always have your back!". Flame said, "I didn't know you were good at piecing things together.". I said, "I honestly didn't know either.". I surprised myself during the class trial. I never thought in my life that I would ever solve a murder case before. Flame said, "I still can't believe what happened today.". I said, "Yeah, today was horrifying. Hopefully we won't have to go through another class trial.". Especially now that we know what punishments are. Flame then fished, making 16 grilled cheese sandwiches and we brought them out to the dining room. After giving everyone their sandwich, Flame said, "I'm going to deliver a sandwich to Kamek and Jolt. I'll be back.". He then left the dining room.

Mr. Krabs said, "I still feel bad for thinking it was the lad or his brother.". Tails said, "You weren't the only one. Half of us thought that because of Flappy.". Mr. Krabs said, "Yeah but I was accusing them more than the rest of you. (sigh) Maybe I should go talk to the lads.". I said, "Talking to Jolt right now isn't a good idea.". Dustin said, "Especially about the trial. The guy seemed really upset about what happened.". Mario said, "He was so upset that he electrocuted Zeke over there?". Carrie said, "Speaking of that, I'm curious about that.". I said, "Well he is pretty sensitive. Whenever he gets too angry or upset, he shoots out electric bolts.". Ender said, "So he tries to stay chill but the killing game makes it hard for him.". I said, "Yes that is correct.". Sonic said, "I don't blame him. Our lives are at stake in this game in more ways than one.". Hoppy said, "I-In my opinion it's a good thing we now know what happens if we fail class trials.". Zeke asked, "And how is it a good thing?". Hoppy replied, "Because it discourages the urge to kill. Why would anyone kill if they know there's a chance to get executed like Flappy?". Skylar said, "She does have a point.". Purple said, "There's one major hole that Lime isn't seeing.". Tails asked, "What would that be?". Purple replied, "Monokuma said that he gives out motives after every class trial. And his last motive caused Flapping Yellow to kill Kid Orange.". Dustin said, "Sadly Purple does have a point.". Zeke said, "So you know Monokuma's name but not the rest of ours?". I completely forgot that Monokuma said that! Monokuma's motives are going to make things more difficult.

We ate dinner and everyone went to their dorms. Me and Flame were standing in the dorm hallway. I asked, "Hey if you want, we can have a sleep over tonight. It might make things less tense.". Flame said, "Thanks but it's been a long day and I want some time by myself.". I said, "Understandable. Good night bro.". Flame said, "Night Rainer!" and then he went to his dorm. Ender called out, "Hey Rainer!". I turned towards Ender's dorm to see him waving me over. I walked towards Ender and asked, "Hey Ender, what's up?". Ender said, "I wanted to check in on you. To see if you were alright.". I asked, "Well, I'm furious that Flappy tried to frame my brothers. But I'm alright.". Ender said, "That's not the reason why I asked. I asked because Flappy used you to try to frame your brothers.". Oh yeah, he asked to investigate with me. But his true intention was to use me to frame my brothers. I took a breath and said, "Oh yeah he did do that. Don't worry about me Ender, I'm fine.". Ender said, "Well if you say so.". I said, "Thanks for checking in on me Ender, night.". Ender said, "No problem, night.". I then rang Jolt's doorbell but there was no answer. I'm guessing that he's not ready to talk yet. So, I went into my dorm. After a long day I got ready for bed. I laid on my bed and closed my eyes, ending the day.

The monitors turned on to reveal Monokuma and he said, "Rise and Shine stu- You know what I'm getting tired of saying the same boring thing every morning and night! Get up and get ready for another beautiful day!". I groaned and got up. I was hoping that what happened yesterday was a cruel nightmare but I knew it was reality. I started getting ready for another day in this school. I then heard my door bell ring. I answer the door to find Jolt. I said, "Hey Jolt, how are you feeling?". Jolt said, "I'm feeling better. Sorry about losing my cool.". I said, "Jolt, there's no need to apologize. I understand that you were really stressed.". Jolt then asked, "Thanks, want to head to the dining hall with me?". I said, "Sure, just give me a couple minutes to finish getting ready.". Jolt said, "Of course!", and then I continued getting ready. When I was done getting ready, I came out of my dorm and went to the dining hall with Jolt.

When we entered the dining hall, everyone except for Mr. Krabs, Flame, Kamek, and Hoppy were sitting at the table. Me and Jolt went to join everyone at the table. Sonic said, "Good morning guys!". I said, "Good morning!". Carrie asked, "Hey Jolt you doing ok?". Skylar added, "Yeah, you were pretty upset after the trial.". Sonic asked, "Can you blame him?". Jolt said, "Yeah I'm feeling better. Sorry guys for my little outburst yesterday.". Sonic said, "You have the full right to feel that way.". Tails added, "Especially after everything Flappy did to frame you.". Jolt turned to Zeke and said, "Hey sorry about electrocuting you.". Zeke said, "No worries, Rainer told us that you can't control it when it happens.". Dustin asked, "Don't you usually cook breakfast with your brother?". Jolt said, "When me and Flame met up this morning, Mr. Krabs came up and asked if he could help Flame cook today's breakfast. So I let him fill in for me.". That's why Jolt joined us at the table instead of helping Flame. Purple said, "Didn't know that Red Crab knew how to cook.". Mario asked, "Doesn't he own a restaurant?". Ender replied, "He's told everyone about his restaurant on the day we met him.". I said, "Oh yeah I remember that. Since he's an owner of a restaurant, I doubt that he doesn't know how to cook.". Dustin said, "I just want to know if his cooking is good.".

I then asked, "Hey has anyone seen Hoppy today?". Mario said, "I haven't.". Skylar said, "Me and Zeke haven't either.". Purple said, "I didn't see Green Bunny at all today.". Sonic said, "Me and Tails went straight to the dining hall after we got ready.". Carrie said, "You guys don't think it happened again right?". Jolt said, "No, there's no way that someone killed! Especially after the events from yesterday!". Jolt is right, no way that someone killed right after Flappy's execution r-right? We then heard Kamek yelling, "LET GO OF ME YOU STUPID RABBIT!". Hoppy replied, "Come on Kamek, there's no need to call me names!". Kamek yelled back, "THEN LET ME GO!". Hoppy replied, "No! You should eat breakfast with the rest of us!". Tails said, "I think I know where she is…". Hoppy then came in with Kamek tied up in a blanket. Hoppy then said, "Hey guys!". Zeke smugly said, "The bunny's 2nd victim.". Mario asked, "Did you tie him up in your blanket?". Kamek replied, "Actually she used my blanket.". Zeke and Skylar started bursting out laughing after Kamek said that. Skylar said while laughing, "S-She tied you up in your own blanket!". Zeke asked while laughing, "H-How did that happen?". Kamek replied, "The rabbit rang my doorbell and somehow entered my dorm when I answered.". Hoppy said, "Don't underestimate my speed!". Sonic said, "Hmm, me and you should race later.". Hoppy said, "Oh, you're on!". I'm glad that Hoppy is safe. But it is really impressive that she managed to get Kamek out of his dorm.

Flame and Mr. Krabs came out with breakfast. It looks like they cooked egg sandwiches today. Mr. Krabs asked, "What is going on here?". Hoppy said, "I brought Kamek here so he could join our breakfast meeting.". Kamek asked, "Can someone untie me already?". Hoppy asked, "Are you going to run away again?". Kamek said, "I would but most likely you'll chase me down and tie me up again.". Hoppy then untied Kamek. Kamek said, "Finally! Did you tie me up in a sailor knot or something?". Hoppy replied, "I'm pretty sure that's the name of the knot I did.". Mr. Krabs asked, "You know how to tie a sailor knot?". Hoppy said, "Yep! My friend Bubba taught me!". Everyone then sat down and started eating. Sonic said, "These sandwiches are really good!". Flame said, "The sandwiches were Mr. Krabs" idea.". Mario said, "I'm surprised that he isn't charging us for the sandwiches.". Flame said, "You can thank me for that.". Dustin asked, "So what's our plan today?". Monokuma said, "Puh hu hu! I have an idea!". Zeke said, "You gotta be kidding me!". Monokuma then popped out from the ground. Jolt said, "Monokuma please go away! We had enough of you already!". Zeke said, "I agree with Jolt!". Monokuma said, "Aw, but I got a special surprise for you all.". Dustin asked, "Is it another motive?". Monokuma said, "Nope! No new motive today!". Ender questioned, "No motive? Then what's this 'surprise' you have for us?". Monokuma said, "As a reward for surviving your first class trial, I unlocked a brand new world for you all to explore!". A brand new world? Mario asked, "A new world? What in the world are you talking about?". Monokuma answered, "I'm talking about the second floor you red plumber!". I questioned, "You unlocked the second floor?". Monokuma said, "That's correct! Come with me and I'll show ya!". Zeke asked, "Do we have to follow him?". Tails replied, "I don't think we have a choice. It's safer to listen to him.". Dustin rolled his eyes at Tails' statement and we all followed Monokuma.

Monokuma took us to the staircase that was blocked off by a chained gate. But the chained gate was now gone. Monokuma said, "See! I told you guys I'm not a liar! I tell nothing but the truth!". Carrie said, "That doesn't make you any less of a psychopath!". Monokuma said, "And it doesn't make you anything less of a ticking time bomb! Anyway, enjoy exploring the second floor! Buh Bye!". Monokuma then jumped through the floor again. Carrie said, "I hate that bear.". Kamek said, "Same but I still want to know how his trap doors work.". Mario said, "Looks like we have a new floor to explore.". Tails said, "From my research on Hope's Peak Academy. The first floor is the biggest out of all of the floors.". Purple asked, "Ok? What's your point Orange Fox?". Tails replied, "My point is that there'll be less rooms for us to explore from the second floor up.". Kamek questioned, "You did research on the school?". Tails said, "Yes, I wanted to know as much as I can before coming here.". Dustin then said, "If you did research then you can tell us of any possible escape routes!". Kamek said, "Or any useful information.". Tails replied, "If I knew of any possible escape routes I would've shared them after Monokuma told us about the killing game. And the research I did isn't going to help us out right now.". Ender said, "But your research is good to keep in mind. Who knows it could help us in the future.". Sonic said, "Well let's stop wasting time! We got a new floor to search!". Sonic then ran up the staircase and yelled, "I'm waiting!". I said, "I'm with Sonic. We should go and search the new floor.". Everyone agreed and we all went up the stairs to the second floor.

When we got to the second floor the lights were glowing blue. Like how the lights in front of the classrooms were glowing purple and if I remember correctly there's a part of the school with green glowing lights. Skylar asked, "So do we split into groups again?". I said, "Yes, that is our best shot at looking for anything useful.". Kamek said, "Yeah, I'm not looking in a group. I'll be looking by myself. See ya!". Kamek then went off to look by himself. Purple said, "Yeah, I'm going to look by myself too.". And without saying anything else, Purple went off on his own too. Dustin said, "I'm going to follow Purple. I don't trust him to be on his own.". Dustin went after Purple. Everyone else started to make groups. Flame and Jolt went up to me and Flame asked, "So we're doing what we did last time right?". I said, "It's a good idea to bond with the other students.". Flame said, "Agreed. I'm going to search with Mr. Krabs.". Jolt said, "And I'm going to see if one of the blocky guys wants to work with me.". I said, "Good luck guys.". We then split off to investigate. I saw Sonic and Tails talking and I went over to them. Sonic said,"Hey Rainer! What's up?". I said, "Nothing much. I'm just curious if I could join you guys' on investigating the floor.". Sonic said, "Sure why not?". Tails said, "I'm looking at the map on the E-handbook and this door leads to three areas.". I said, "Sounds like a good place to start!". Sonic said, "Then what are we waiting for?". We went for the door at the end of the left hallway.

The door leads to a smaller hallway with 2 doors at the end, the left door was pink and the right one was blue. It had a shelf of pool supplies, and a life preserver hanging on the wall. Sonic said, "Looks like the first area is just a hallway.". I said, "From the looks of it, there's not much in the hallway.". Tails said, "We should move on to the next room.". Sonic asked, "But which door should we choose?". Monokuma said, "Hold it right there buckaroo!". Monokuma then popped out of the ground. Sonic asked, "How do you keep doing that!". Monokuma said, "None of you business Rodent!". I asked, "What are you doing here Monokuma?". Monokuma said, "I'm here to tell you the deal with these doors!". Sonic asked, "What do you mean by that?". Monokuma said, "These doors lead to the pool changing rooms. The left door is the girl's changing room and the right is the boy's!". Tails asked, "But what's the point in stopping to tell us that? I'm pretty sure the doors are labeled.". Monokuma said, "You're right about the doors being labeled but if you pay attention you can see scanners next to the door knob! Those scanners keep the opposite gender from snooping. All you have to do is scan your E-handbook on your gender's changing room scanner.". Sonic asked, "What happens if we scan our E-handbook on the opposite gender's scanner?". Tails said, "I'm pretty sure it'll just deny you entry Sonic.". Monokuma said, "That's part of what will happen. Look up to see the second part!". The three of us look up to see giant harpoon guns pointing at us! I yelled, "ARE THOSE HARPOON GUNS?!". Monokuma said, "Correcto! Those bad boys will fire if you scan your E-handbook on the wrong scanner!". Tails said, "You're a psychopath!". Monokuma said, "Hey, if enforcing the rules makes me a psychopath then I'm the biggest psychopath here!". He is right on one thing, he's the biggest psychopath here. Monokuma said, "Well, I'll let you continue your investigation! Later!". Monokuma then jumped through the ground.

Tails said, "Well the only way to access the pool is to go through the changing rooms.". Sonic asked, "D-Do we have to check out the pool?". Tails said, "The pool could have an important clue.". I said, "And we also have to check out the changing rooms too.". Sonic sighed and said, "O-Ok.". Sonic seems pretty scared about entering the pool area. But why does he seem so scared? Pools are really awesome! Tails and Sonic went into the boy's changing room and I went into the girl's changing room. The girl's changing room had a gray mat on the center of the floor, lockers against the wall next to the door I came through, two pull up bars on top of the mat, a bench next to the pull up bars and a boy band poster on the left wall, and two plants on both sides of the doors of the room. I said, "Wow, the changing room looks really nice! For a killing school.". I decided to look in the lockers, and in one of them it had weighted bars, sweetbands and other exercise equipment. This changing room looks like it's for more than changing. With the exercise equipment people can use this room for exercising too. Other than the exercise equipment, there's not much in the girl's changing room. So I went through the door that went to the pool area.

The pool was big! The pool took up 90% of the room. On the left and right sides of the room there were bleachers. Probably for people to watch swimming events. Sonic and Tails entered the pool. Tails asked, "Hey Rainer! Have you found anything in the girl's changing room?". I said, "No. There's just exercise equipment like pull up bars and it had a boy band poster but nothing useful.". Tails said, "Sounds like the boy's and girl's changing rooms are identical.". I questioned, "Really? The boy's changing room has the same stuff?". Sonic walked to the boy's changing room door and said, "Yeah, take a look for yourself.". He then opened the door and the boy's changing room was really identical. The only difference was the walls were blue instead of pink and there was a poster of a girl in a swim suit instead of a poster of a boy band. I said, "I'm guessing there wasn't much in there.". Tails said, "No there wasn't.". Sonic said, "This room is mostly a pool. Are there any clues here?". I said, "The only place I think that could have a clue is in the pool.". Sonic nervously said, "I-I'm not the one going in the pool!". Tails said, "Sonic can't swim, so that's why he's acting like this.". I said, "Don't worry Sonic, I'll go in the pool.". I dived into the pool and went underwater. I looked around and I didn't see anything except for a pool drain. It could lead to the outside but the drain is way too small for any of us to fit. I swam back up to the surface. Tails then asked, "Did you find anything?". I said, "The only thing I saw was the pool drain.". Sonic said, "Dang, should we move on to another room?". I said after jumping out of the pool, "Yeah, I think we searched everything here.". The three of us exited the pool.

The three of us entered the third floor hallway. We started walking down the hallway, after we passed by the bathrooms, we started to hear banging on a gate. We looked towards the left hallway to see a gate blocking a staircase. Zeke was trying to open the gate while Skylar was watching. We went up to them and Sonic said, "Hey, guys!". Skylar said, "Hey.". Tails said, "I'm guessing that's the staircase to the third floor.". Skylar said, "Correct.". I said, "And Zeke is trying to open it like last time.". Skylar said, "Yep.". Tails asked, "Should we tell him that forcing the gate open like that won't work?". Skylar said, "The Blockhead won't listen. Believe me, I tried telling him.". I asked, "Hey didn't Jolt join you guys?". Skylar said, "Yes, he and Rocky went ahead to investigate while I deal with this.". Sonic said, "I'm curious why they blocked off another floor.". Skylar said, "I'm guessing that we unlock new floors by surviving class trials.". Tails said, "That makes sense. This floor was unlocked because we survived the last class trial.". I questioned, "So if we want to search other floors, people have to kill each other?". Monokuma said, "Yeparoo!". Zeke said, "UGH! Not him!". Monokuma popped up and said, "Bone Head is correct! In order to search new floors, you gotta survive class trials! In order to survive class trials your peaceful community has to be disturbed!". Zeke asked, "Did you only pop up just to tell us that Skylar's theory was right? Or is there something else?". Monokuma said, "That's the only thing I had to reveal for now. So if you want your world to grow, you gotta get killing! Puh hu hu!". He then left by jumping through the ground. Zeke said, "Thank god he's gone!" and then continued trying to open the gate. Skylar said, "You guys should move on to a different room. I'll make sure the Blockhead doesn't hurt himself.". The three of us left Skylar and Zeke and headed down the hallway.

We then went to the hallway that turned right. The only door was on the right side of the hallway. So we entered the room. The room was a classroom and it looked like the first floor classrooms. It was pretty big with 18 desks I believe. Also a teacher's desk and a whiteboard in the front. Metal plates bolted on the windows and the same camera and monitor that was in every room. Mr. Krabs and Flame were searching the room. Flame said, "Hey guys, how's the searching going?". I said, "What we found doesn't help us escape.". Tails asked, "Is there anything here?". Flame said, "Mr. Krabs is looking for those Monokuma coins.". Mr. Krabs said, "HEY! I'm also looking for clues too lad!". Sonic said, "So is every classroom like this?". Flame said, "From the looks of it, yes.". Mr. Krabs said, "Hey, I think I found something!". We went towards Mr. Krabs and he showed us a photo. The photo was 16 teenagers standing together. There was a fat kid that reminded me of a gopher, a kid with weird hair that looked like a biker, a girl with pink hair with black and white hair clips, a girl who wasn't facing the camera, a girl with light purple hair that looked like a detective. And other kids with unique looks. Sonic asked, "Who are these people?". Flame said, "They look like students.". Tails said, "Hm, this looks like they were taking a class picture.". I said, "But if they're students of Hope's Peak Academy, then what happened to them?". Tails said, "Don't know we should keep the photo for now.". Flame handed me the photo and said, "You should hold on to it Rainer. You were always good at not losing important stuff.". I took the photo and Tails said, "We'll let you guys continue investigating.". Mr. Krabs said, "We'll see you lads later.". Fame said, "Yeah, we'll see if we can find something else.". We then left the classroom.

The next room we entered was the library. It had rows of bookshelves on the back wall, a desk with a chair, a bookshelf in front and behind the desk, a door to the left of the room's entrance, and a table next to the door. Jolt and Rocky were at the table while Hoppy, and Mario were looking through the bookshelves. Hoppy noticed us and said, "Oh hey guys! What's up?". I replied, "Nothing much. Have you guys found anything?". Hoppy said, "Well me and Mario have been looking through these bookshelves.". Tails asked, "Does any of these books have any useful information on it?". Mario said, "No, there's just educational books and some great stories like The Great Gatsby.". Hoppy said, "But Mario did find something when we first came in.". I asked, "What did you find?". Mario said, "There's a laptop on the desk over there. I went to grab Jolt so he could check it out since he's our computer expert.". Sonic asked, "Do you know what's behind that door?". Hoppy said, "No, Kamek and Carrie are in there.". Sonic said, "We should talk with Jolt before checking out that room.". Tails said, "Sounds good Sonic. We'll see you guys later.". Hoppy said, "Later alligator!". We then walked towards Jolt and Rocky and I said, "Hey, Jolt.". Jolt said, "Hey Rainer, Sonic and Tails! I'm guessing you're here about the laptop Mario found.". Tails said, "Yes we are. Did you find anything?". Jolt said, "No, the computer isn't turning on at all.". Sonic asked, "Is the computer broken?". Jolt said, "It's a possibility. I'll try my best to get this thing working again.". Tails said, "You should try to make sure Monokuma doesn't find out.". I added, "Yeah, he'll probably take the laptop away if he catches you.". Jolt said, "That's a good point. I'm going to put the laptop in a place where Monokuma won't find it.". Jolt grabs the laptop and says, "I'll see you guys later.". He then left the library while Rocky followed him. Sonic said, "Well while he does that, we should check out that room.". I said, "Yeah, let's do that!". We then went to the door next to the library's entrance.

Once we entered the room it just had more bookshelves against the walls, boxes of books on the floor and a step ladder next to the bookshelves. Kamek was looking through some of the books while Carrie was looking at the shelves. Carrie questioned, "What's the point in this room? It's just more shelves.". Sonic suggested, "Maybe this is a book storage closet.". Kamek said, "No this isn't some stupid storage closet. This is the library's archive.". Carrie questioned, "Archive?". Kamek replied, "It's where the school keeps their most elite books. These books hold some of the interesting education you won't find in normal schools.". Tails said, "Oh yeah, I heard about this school's library's archive.". I asked, "Do you think any of these books could hold some useful information?". Kamek said, "I doubt Monokuma would be dumb enough to leave anything like that.". Carrie asked, "Then why are you looking through the books?". Kamek said, "Because I want to see what information this archive holds. I'm currently reading this book about wanted criminals.". Carrie asked, "Don't you care about finding a way to escape?". Kamek said, "Of course I do but the only way to escape is to play Monokuma's game!". Sonic said, "That isn't an option! There's got to be another way!". Kamek said, "Your delusions are the reason why I'm going to be the only winner.". Carrie questioned, "Only winner? What is that supposed to mean?". Kamek closed his book and got up. He then said, "I am done answering your stupid questions.". Carrie asked, "Hey where are you going?!" but Kamek left without saying anything. Carrie sighed and said, "I don't trust him.". I then asked, "Hey Carrie, did you find anything?". Carrie said, "No, I'm sorry.". But this room could hold more information about our situation than what Kamek says. Reading through these books could be worth it. Tails said, "There's one more room we gotta search.". Sonic said, "Yeah, talk to you later Carrie.". Carrie said, "Bye guys!". We then left the archive then the library.

We then walked down the hallway and entered the last room. The last room on this floor was a class room. This class room is the exact same as the other classrooms. Sadly there's even the metal plates on the windows. Purple and Dustin were arguing at the front of the classroom while Ender was trying to break them up. Purple yelled, "Will you just leave me alone!". Dustin yelled back, "No! I'm not letting you hurt anyone here!". Purple replied, "Me hurt people? That's funny coming from you!". Dustin yelled back, "What's that supposed to mean?!". Ender said, "Can you guys stop with this nonsense! We're supposed to find an escape!". I decided to speak up and say, "Guys, enough with the fighting! This is the least helpful thing for us right now!". Dustin said, "You may have tricked everyone here but I know the truth!". Purple chuckled and said, "That sentence is funny coming from you!". Ender asked, "Can we focus on investigating the classroom now?". Purple said, "If you think that I want to investigate with him then you're crazy Dark Purple.". Purple then decided to leave the room. Dustin yelled at Purple, "HEY GET BACK HERE!". Purple left without saying anything. Sonic stopped Dustin from leaving and said, "It's not worth going after him.". Dustin said, "But I don't trust him to be alone!". Tails said, "It's best to leave him alone for right now. Anyway, did you guys manage to find anything here?". Ender said, "We did manage to have a small bit of time to search the room before the fight.". Dustin added, "We basically found nothing. This classroom is the exact same as the others.". Tails said while looking at the map on his E-handbook, "Looks like we searched every room on this floor.". Ender said, "We should probably go back to the dining room. It's almost time for our dinner meeting.". It's been that long already? It didn't feel like investigating took that long. The five of us left the classroom.

We went into the dining room and waited for everyone else to arrive. By 6:00 pm, everyone but Kamek, Flame and Purple was sitting at the table. Zeke asked, "When is Kamek and Purple going to get here?". Jolt replied, "I doubt Kamek would come. He wants to be by himself.". Dustin added, "And Purple is currently avoiding me, so I don't think he'll be showing up too.". I said, "I think we should start the discussion without them.". Dustin said, "Well, me and Ender didn't find anything because me and Purple had an argument.". Ender asked, "Did anyone else discover something?". Skylar said, "Well, me and Zeke found the staircase to the next floor. Just like with the second floor, it was blocked by a gate.". Zeke said, "The stupid bear came and told us that we unlock new floors when we survive class trials.". Carrie questioned, "We have to kill more people to explore new floors?!". I said, "Sadly that is the case.". Mario said, "I guess I'll go next. In the library I found a laptop on a table.". Dustin questioned, "A laptop? Was there anything on it?". Jolt said, "No, the laptop won't turn on. I'm going to try my best to get the laptop running again.". Carrie said, "Also in the library there's a room called the archive where they keep the 'most advanced books'. Kamek has been looking through the archive's books all day.". Dustin asked, "Mr. Krabs, did you and Flame find anything?". Mr. Krabs said, "In one of their classrooms, me and Flame found a photo. It was a photo of 16 teens in a classroom.". I added, "It looks like they were Hope's Peak Students taking a class photo.". Hoppy said, "Do you think the picture could be a clue?". I replied, "We don't know yet. But I'm holding on to it just in case.". Tails said, "Looks like it's our turn. Well, the rooms before the pool are the changing rooms. You need to scan your E-handbooks on the locker room door of your gender to enter.". Hoppy asked, "What happens if we scan the wrong door?". I answered, "You get killed by the giant harpoon gun on the ceiling.". Mr. Krabs yelled, "THERE'S A GIANT HARPOON GUN HERE?!". Mario asked, "Why does a school even have a giant harpoon gun?". Sonic replied, "A one being runned by a psychotic bear.". I said, "We didn't find anything else in the changing rooms or pool.". Zeke asked, "Is there any information that wasn't shared.". Carrie said, "Other than Kamek, everyone has shared what they found.".

Kamek said, "Looks like none of you found an escape route, how predictable.". Jolt said, "It's not like you did anything to help.". Kamek said, "Hey, I was looking through the advanced literature in the archive.". Zeke asked, "How is that supposed to help us?". Kamek said, "I never said I'd help you guys.". Flame came in with dinner and we all started eating. Flame asked, "Hey, where's Purple?". Dustin replied, "Probably avoiding me somewhere.". Flame asked, "Should I drop off some food at his dorm then?". Dustin said, "No, I'll drop off his food.". Kamek asked, "Didn't you just say that he's avoiding you?". Dustin replied, "Yes but I don't want anyone to be alone with him. He's not trustworthy.". Dustin picked up Purple's plate and left the dining room. I wonder why Dustin and Purple hate each other? They've been at each other's throats ever since I've met them. We finished eating dinner and everyone went off to do their own thing. Jolt took me and Flame to the sauna. I asked, "So is there a specific reason why you brought us here?". Jolt said, "I wanted to show you guys where I'm hiding the laptop.". Jolt went up to a locker and opened it up to reveal the laptop. Flame asked, "Why is it hidden in the sauna?". Jolt replied, "Because the sauna has no cameras. I can work on it here without Monokuma spying on me.". I asked, "Why are you showing us? I thought you weren't going to tell anyone.". Jolt said, "I trust you guys and it's a just in case measure if anything happens.". A just in case measure if anything happens? What does he mean by that? Flame asked, "Did you manage to turn it on yet?". Jolt said, "No not yet. I have some theories that I'm going to test out tomorrow.". I mockingly said, "You should get some sleep if you want to have the energy then.". Jolt chuckled and said, "Ok mom I know it's past my bedtime.". That smug comment made me and Flame chuckle. It's nice to see that he didn't lose his sense of humor, especially after yesterday. The three of us went to the dorm hallway and entered our dorms. I entered my dorm and went to sleep in my bed.

The monitors turned on to reveal Monokuma and he said, "Rise and Shine Urshine! Oh wait, that's the MonoKubs' line… Whatever! Just get up and enjoy the day!". I groaned and asked, "What are the Monokubs?". It doesn't matter, I should get ready for the day. I got ready and left my dorm. I entered the dining room and everyone but Flame, Jolt, Kamek and Purple were there. Zeke asked, "Has Rocky said anything since the trial?". Mario said, "Rocky said that he doesn't like to talk. So I'm guessing that he only talks when he needs to.". I said, "Good morning guys.". Ender said, "Good morning Rainer.". I said, "Looks like Kamek and Purple aren't here yet.". Hoppy said, "I couldn't find Purple or Kamek anywhere.". Carrie said, "Kamek is probably in the library's archive.". Dustin said, "And Purple is likely hiding somewhere in the school.". Skylar asked, "Did anyone see him go into his dorm at all last night?". Tails said, "No, I never saw him go into his dorm at all last night.". Oh yeah, if Purple did go into his dorm, Tails and Dustin would know because Purple's dorm is right in between them. Mr. Krabs asked, "So, did the lad sleep somewhere that wasn't his dorm last night?". Ender replied, "No that's not likely.". Sonic asked, "Why do you say that". Ender explained, "The rules say that sleeping anywhere that isn't a dorm will result in punishment. And we all know what Monokuma's punishments are.". Carrie said, "Oh yeah, breaking the rules is a death wish.". Mr. Krabs said, "So if the lad didn't go to his dorm last night, then did he even sleep at all?". Dustin replied, "Who knows. Just as long as he doesn't cause any trouble, I don't care where he's hiding.". Still, Purple has been hiding ever since the fight in the classroom. I wonder if he's ok.

Flame and Jolt brought out breakfest sandwiches and gave everyone a plate. Flame asked, "Where's Kamek and Purple?". Mario said, "We don't know.". Kamek said, "I'm right here" as he entered the room. He sat down and grabbed a plate. Carrie said, "I'm guessing that you were in the library's archive.". Kamek said, "That'd be correct. It's better than being kidnapped by a rabbit.". Hoppy said, "I wouldn't call it kidnapping.". Kamek rolled his eyes at Hoppy's comment. Jolt asked, "So should we dop off a plate to Purple?". Ender said, "It would be hard to do that since no one knows where he is.". I added, "Yeah, he's been hiding ever since yesterday.". Then the ding dong bing bong sound played. Zeke asked,"UGH! What now?!". The monitors turned on to reveal Monokuma and he said, "Attention all students! Attention all students! Please meet in the gymnasium for a special announcement! Don't be late! Or else!". Then the monitors tuned off. Skylar sighed and asked, "What does Monokuma want now?!". Kamek said, "You seriously forgot what he said before Kenny's death?". I thought about it for a moment. What did Monokuma say before Kenny's murder? Then it came to me. I said, "You're talking about the motives right?". Kamek said, "At least one of you is thinking. Yes, Monokuma said that after every class trial a new motive will be announced.". Flame said, "I was hoping Monokuma would forget about that.". Kamek said, "Looks like he didn't. I'm heading to the gym.". Sonic said, "Yeah we should go before Monokuma gets mad.". All of us nervously left the dining room.

As soon as we entered the gym, we saw Purple standing in front of Monokuma's platform. Dustin asked Purple, "Where have you been?". Purple replied, "None of your business!". Carrie asked, "Are you ok?". Purple said, "That's also none of your business Blocky Lime.". Carrie repeated, "Blocky Lime?". Dustin said, "Just ignore him. He's not going to share anything with us.". Dustin and Purple glared at each other. Zeke asked, "Hey Purple, where is Monokuma?". Purple replied, "How am I supposed to know? He hasn't shown up yet.". Kamek said, "My guess is that he waits for all of us to get here before popping up.". Then we heard Monokuma's laugh, "Puh hu hu". He then popped out of the ground and said, "That'd be correct Kamek! What's the point in waiting here for you slow pokes to come. It's so boring!". Skylar said, "Quit the show Monokuma!". Zeke said, "Yeah I just want to get this over with already!". Monokuma said, "Get it over with already? But you just got here! Wouldn't you want to have fun?". Sonic said, "Nothing about this is fun.". Kamek requested, "Can we just start this 'announcement' already. It's obvious that you're gonna give us our second motive.". Monokuma said, "How can you be sure it's the second motive? Maybe I just wanted to hang out with you guys?". Carrie replied, "If you wanted to hang out with us, you wouldn't have been telling us to kill each other for freedom.". Monokuma said, "Yeah you guys are right, it's the second motive!". I'm super nervous right now. The first motive caused Flappy to kill Kenny! And it was supposed to be 'fun but not too big'. I'm scared of what our second one is going to be!

Monokuma said, "This time we have a bonus motive to go along with the main motive!". I nervously questioned, "A-A bonus motive?". Monokuma said, "Yep! The bonus motive is that we hid personalized weapons in each of your dorms for you to use whenever you want!". Hoppy nervously asked, "P-Personalized weapons? W-What does that mean?". Kamek explained, "He specially made weapons for us all.". Monokuma added, "That's correct! I made specially gathered weapons that were designed specifically for you!". Skylar asked, "How did you hide them in our rooms without us knowing?". Monokuma replied, "We have our ways.". Dustin questioned, "We?". Tails asked, "I'm afraid to ask but what is the main motive?". But before anyone else could say anything, stacks of cash fell on Monokuma's platform, forming a money pyramid. Mr. Krabs said, "I-Is that, m-m-mon-mon". Monokuma said, "That's right, Eugine, it's your favorite thing in the whole world! MONEY!". As Mr. Krabs were drooling like crazy, Ender asked, "So our second motive is green paper?". Monokuma said, "Yep! If you successfully kill and get away with it you'll get a 1,000,000 cash prize!". Skylar said, "Sweet this motive doesn't affect the people from my world.". Monokuma said, "Don't worry Bone Boy, if any of the Minecraft people wins you'll get 1,000,000 emeralds instead of cash. AKA the money of the Minecraft world!". Hoppy asked, "But how will money convince one of us to kill someone?". Monokuma said, "That's a good question Green Bugs, this motive tests everyone's greed. The more greedy you are, the more tempting the motive is.". Basically the more greedy you are, the more chance that you will kill. Hoppy said, "I still don't see how this motive will get one of us to kill anyone.". Monokuma replied, "Greed can get people to do very bad things including murder! The strongest willed people can fall to greed! Even any one of you can fall to greed!".

Zeke asked, "And what happens if none of us falls to greed?". Monokuma said, "I could always reveal everyone's secrets. Like how you're an undead zombie!". Sonic asked, "Wait, Zeke is true? Are you a zombie?". Kamek said, "Based on the last motive I doubt that isn't true.". Zeke said, "Yes it is true, I'm Zeke Zombie!". Monokuma said, "That is one of the many back up motives that I have in case this one fails! The motive file on your E-handbooks are updated with the second motive and the bonus motive.". Skylar asked, "Wait, what is stopping us from taking the cash from the stage right now?". Monokuma replied, "Well, you can but this money is a fake display to show you what you'll win if you get away with the kill! And using it will get you thrown in jail. Now I have some stuff to do so I'll catch you all later. Happy killings! Puh hu hu!". Monokuma then jumped through the ground leaving the 16 of us in the gym. One of many back up motives? I guess he revealed Zeke's secret as an example of what he has against us. Now I'm nervous to find out what other back up motives he has up his shelves. Zeke said, "Finally he's gone! I'm heading out, I'm done with this crap!". Zeke left the gym and Skylar followed. Tails asked, "Should we be concerned about Zeke?". Sonic added, "Yeah, we just learned that he's a zombie. Zombies are known for eating other living creatures.". Carrie said, "Look me and Ender know Zeke really well, and he isn't like other zombies. I can promise you all that he won't eat anyone here.". Jolt asked, "How do you know that?". Carrie asked, "Has he eaten anyone yet?". Jolt replied, "Fair point.". Kamek said while smirking, "Maybe he's waiting on eating one of you.". Carrie said, "Shut up Kamek! Zeke isn't the type of zombie that will eat people alive!". Kamek said, "Sure, the zombie who's really good at hunting won't eat one of us.". I said, "Kamek stop! Us distrusting each other is what Monokuma wants!". Kamek said, "I'm just being realistic here! Not everything is what it seems Rainer!". Kamek then left after saying that. Carrie said, "Jerk!".

Purple said, "I'm heading out too. I don't want to be here with any of you anymore. Especially him!" glazing at Dustin. Dustin replied, "It's not like I enjoy your company either.". Purple then left the gym. Dustin said, "I'm going to see if I can figure out his hiding spot." and then quickly chased after Purple. Jolt said, "I'm going to hang out in the sauna for a while.". Flame said, "I'll join ya!". My brothers then left the gym. Basically everyone started to leave the gym one by one. Mario had to direct Mr. Krabs out of the gym. I guess Mr. Krabs might have been too mind blown from the motive. I have a bad feeling that isn't a good thing. Only me, Carrie, and Ender were left in the gym. Carrie asked, "Hey Ender, I'm heading to the library. You want to come?". Ender said, "Maybe later. I have a very important discussion with Rainer first.". I questioned, "An important discussion?". Carrie said, "Kay! I'll see you later then!" and then left us alone in the gym. I then asked Ender, "Hey Ender what's this very important discussion about?". Ender said, "It's about the motive and Mr. Krabs. As we both know Mr. Krabs loves money.". I said, "Yeah, with him being the Ultimate Cheapskate I don't doubt he isn't the most greedy person here.". Especially the fact that he might have a giant collection of Monocoins by now. Ender said, "I'm worried about him. This motive isn't going to be easy for him to ignore.". I said, "Yeah he was drooling like crazy when the fake cash fell.". Ender said, "Monokuma said that if no one falls to greed and kills someone else then we get a new motive. I think we should help him get through this motive. A 24/7 watch to make sure he doesn't kill for the real reward.". I said, "I like the idea but I won't be able to watch him 24/7.". Ender said, "We can switch off. You can watch him during the day until dinnertime and then I can watch him during nighttime until breakfast.". I asked, "But what about sleep? Won't you get tired?". Ender said, "I'm a nighttime mob. Nighttime mobs don't need to sleep to restore energy.". I said, "Well, the plan doesn't sound bad. I guess I'm in! I'll go look for Mr. Krabs right now!". Ender said, "Ok! Have fun and good luck.". I then left the gym to look for Mr. Krabs.

I spent some time looking for . I eventually found him in the kitchen. It looks like he was cooking something. I took a breath, went up to him, and said, "Hey Krabs! What are you up to?". Mr. Krabs said, "Hey lad, I'm just trying to recreate one of me most popular recipes.". I said, "I can help, I helped my brother cook in the past. So I know a thing or two about cooking.". Mr. Krabs said, "Sorry lad but me recipe is a secret. I can't afford to let anyone know.". I said, "Understandable. Do you at least want someone to talk to while cooking? I promise I won't pay attention to your recipe.". Mr. Krabs said, "I guess that shouldn't be a problem.". Mr. Krabs said that it'll take a little while for the food to be ready so he told me about his restaurant 'The Krusty Krab' while he was cooking. Apparently it's the most popular in 'Bikini Bottom' which is the name of his town. Everyone in the town loves his burgers, 'The Krabby Patty". He has two workers. Squidward Technicles, a grumpy cashier who sounds like he hates his job? And Spongebob Squarepants, the fry cook who loves his job and is really good at it. Mr. Krabs made it sound like Spongebob was the best employee in the world. Mr. Krabs then finished making the Krabby Patties and gave one to me.

I took a bite and it was honestly really good. I said, "Wow, I can see why people love the burgers, this is delicious.". Mr. Krabs said, "Thanks lad. Me employee Spongebob makes them way better than me though.". I asked, "So do you have any competition back at your home town?". Mr. Krabs said, "Me only competition doesn't get any customers.". I asked, "May I ask why?". Mr. Krabs said, "Their food is so bad that no one wants to eat there.". I then asked, "Why don't they do anything about it?". Mr. Krabs said, "Because the owner, Sheldon Plankton, puts all of his time into creating plans to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula.". I questioned, "He wants to steal your recipe?". Mr. Krabs said, "Yep, he tried over a hundred times to steal me formular. But me and me trusty employees always manage to stop him.". I said, "So he tries to steal your formula because your food is more popular than his?". Mr. Krabs said, "That's half of the reason.". I questioned, "Half of the reason?". He replied, "Yep, the other reason is so he rule the world.". I questioned, "He believes stealing a burger recipe will help him rule the world?". Mr. Krabs chuckled, "That'd be correct. Honestly I don't why he thinks that too.". Wow, who knew running a fast food restaurant would be that wild of a ride? I then decided to give Mr. Krabs a gift. I got a pearl necklace from the Monokuma Prize Machine, so I gave it to him because it could be worth a good amount of money. Mr. Krabs looked at the necklace and sighed. I asked, "Mr. Krabs are you ok? Is there something wrong with the necklace?". Mr. Krabs answered, "No, no there's nothing wrong with the necklace. Thank you for the gift.". That doesn't sound convincing. There's something on his mind, but maybe I should ask him about it later. But I did feel like I bonded with Mr. Krabs today. Hoppy then ran into the room in a panic. I asked, "Hoppy, what's wrong?". Hoppy said, "We need help! Someone is in real danger in the gym!". Me and Mr. Krabs looked at each other and then followed Hoppy to the gym.

When we entered the gym we then saw the real danger Hoppy was talking about. Dustin pinned Monokuma against the wall while everyone but Purple was standing on the side. Jolt said, "Dustin dude, this doesn't seem like a good idea!". Zeke added, "Yeah, remember what the threat that the bear made to me?". Dustin said, "I'm sick of this bear's games! I'm going to get answers!". Hoppy said, "We've been trying to get Dustin to back off but he isn't listening! Maybe he'll listen to you?". I nodded and said, "I'll try my best.". We then walked up and I said, "Dustin let go of Monokuma! I know you want to leave, we all do but this is a reckless choice! You're putting yourself in real danger of dying!". Monokuma said, "You should listen to your friends! Remember violence against the headmaster is against the rules!". Dustin said, "Shut up Monokuma! You threatened that you'll explode anyone who attacks you but I don't believe that! There'll be no way for you to survive an explosion! I believe that you lied to scare us!". Monokuma laughed and said, "You sure you want to find out birdbrain? I'll give you a chance to back off and survive!". Dustin said, "I'll only back off if you answer my questions! When you explained the motive you said 'We have our ways'. Who is this we? Is there someone working with you?". Kamek said, "I think the goose is going crazy.". Carrie said, "That isn't helping Kamek!". Monokuma then started beeping. Mario said, "Um Monokuma started beeping! What does the beeping mean?!". Dustin said, "He's just trying to scare me!". Ender said, "Um, Dustin I recommend getting out of the way!". Dustin wasn't listening. Monokuma beeping started to go faster. I yelled, "DUSTIN MOVE!". Mr. Krabs then ran to Dustin. Mr. Krabs grabbed Dustin and threw him out of the way. But before Mr. Krabs could escape and Monokuma exploded. Mr. Krabs was blasted to the opposite side of the gym. Hoppy yelled, "MR. KRABS!". We all ran to Mr. Krabs. Mario said, "Mama mia! Is Mr. Krabs alright?!". There's no way that Mr. Krabs just died like that! There's no way!

Mr. Krabs then groaned and said, "Relax lads.". Flame questioned, "You're alive?!". Carrie asked, "How are you alive? An explosion like that should've killed you!". Mr. Krabs replied, "It's because of me shell. Me shell is tough and strong enough to protect me from any sort of danger.". That's a massive relief. I'm so glad that we didn't lose someone today. Mario said, "Oh mama mia, thank god you're ok!". I asked, "Is Dustin ok?". Dustin stood there shocked not saying anything. Tails said, "He might be in shock after what happened. I would give him a few minutes to snap back into reality.". Sonic said, "Hey guys, Monokuma exploded. Does that mean the killing game is over?". Hoppy replied, "I think you're right! We can finally leave!". We then heard Monokuma's "Puh hu hu" laugh. Jolt said, "There's no way!". Monokuma then popped up from the ground and said, "Not so fast buckaroos! The killing game isn't over and you can't leave!". Zeke then questioned, "B-But you exploded! H-How are you alive?". Monokuma said, "Oh zombie brain, we have thousands of Monokuma copies in case something happens to the current Monokuma!". Mario said, "There are thousands of you in the school?". Monokuma said, "You got that right? I'll let you live for now Dustin. I'm going to use this experience as a warning on what will happen if you break the rules!". I questioned, "If we break the rules we explode?!". Monokuma said, "Well explosion is one of the executions I have for rule breakers! Anyways, I'll see you guys later!". Monokuma then jumped through the ground leaving us in the gym. Dustin then turned to us and said, "M-Mr. Krabs I-I'm so sorry! I-I didn't think-". Mr. Krabs said, "It's ok lad. No one got hurt right?". Dustin didn't say anything, he just looked away ashamedly. Flame said, "I think we should go to the dining room and have dinner.". We all agreed and headed to the dining room.

We arrived at the dining room and Flame and Jolt brought out chicken sandwiches. Kamek said, "You brought out dinner faster today.". Flame said, "I started cooking dinner early today.". Zeke said, "So, attacking Monokuma is definitely off the table. The guy says he has enough copies to make an army.". Carrie added, "Plus he has a more dangerous explosion than I do.". So attacking Monokuma is a death wish and so far there's no way to escape. Is there any method that we haven't thought of yet? Oh wait a minute, there's something that no one has brought up yet. I then asked, "Hey Ender you can teleport anywhere you want right?". Kamek added, "Oh yeah teleportation is your Ultimate Talent!". Ender answered, "Well I have a limit on how far I can teleport but why do you ask?". I asked, "Can't you teleport us out of the school?". Ender said, "Usually I could but, I can't.". Mr. Krabs asked, "What do you mean you can't lad?". Ender answered, "I tried to teleport to the area on the other side of the school's wall. I usually could teleport in and out of buildings but for some reason I can't teleport out of this building. But I can still teleport in and out of rooms.". Mario said, "So it's like someone messed with your powers?". Sonic asked, "How is that even possible?". Ender said, "I wished I knew.". Hoppy asked, "Did anyone else's powers get messed with?". Sonic said, "For some reason my super speed is untouched.". Tails said, "The school walls must be strong enough to withstand your spindashes.". I said, "Pokemon have powerful moves but me and my brothers can't remember how to do the moves we've learned". Kamek said, "Hm… That's interesting…".

We ate dinner and then everyone went their own separate ways. Ender said, "How did it go with Mr. Krabs?". I said, "It went well. We talked while he was cooking.". Ender said, "That's good! Looks like it's my turn to hang out with him. Me and Carrie were thinking of bringing him to the AV room.". I said, "Carrie knows about our plan?". Ender said, "Correct. I better be going now. Later Rainer!". I said, "Have fun!" and Ender teleported away. I then decided to go swimming before going to bed. So I went upstairs and went to the girl's changing room. When I entered I saw Hoppy putting on a swimming cap. I said, "Hey Hoppy! You're going swimming too?". Hoppy said, "O-Oh yeah! I figured it would be a good exercise.". I then said, "So since we're both going swimming, want to hang out?". Hoppy excitedly said, "Sure!". We then entered the pool area and we both jumped into the pool. Me and Hoppy spent at least two hours swimming laps in the pool. After swimming laps I decided to give her a gift. Since she's the Ultimate Soccer Player, I figured on giving her this mini Soccer Ball I got from the prize machine. Hoppy said, "Dude! This is a rad gift! Thanks!". Maybe I can ask her about her secret? I then asked, "Hey Hoppy can you tell me about your friends?". Hoppy said, "Oh of course!". She began to tell me about her group the Smiling Critters! A group of 7 critters other than Hoppy. DogDay, Bubba Bubbaphent, Bobby Bearhug, Crafty Corn, Kickin Chickin, Pickin Piggy and CatNap. Hoppy told me a lot about them like how Bobby takes care of all of them, DogDay leads the group and how Kickin is her best friend. But she barely told me anything about this CatNap guy. So I asked her, "So can you tell me about this CatNap guy?". Hoppy's excitement lowered and said, "W-Well he was best friends with DogDay". Was? I then asked, "Can you please tell me more about him?". Hoppy said, "I-I um uh, gotta go to bed. We'll talk later.". Hoppy then hopped out of the pool and left. That gave me more questions than answers. But it also gave me a theory. I then decided to get out and head to bed as well. So I left the pool and went to my dorm. When I entered my dorm I automatically laid down in my bed and went to sleep.

The monitors turned on to reveal Monokuma and he said, "Good Morning Students! It's time to get up and enjoy the day!". I got up and got ready. When I finished getting ready, my doorbell rang. I opened the door to find Ender standing there. Ender said, "Good morning Rainer. Ready for day two?". I said, "Good morning Ender. I guess I'm ready, do you know where Mr. Krabs is?". Ender answered, "Yes, he is currently in the dining room.". I nodded and we went to the dining room. Everyone except Hoppy, Mario, Purple, Flame, Jolt, and Dustin were in the dining room. I asked as I took my seat, "Good morning guys! Hey where is everyone else?". Tails said, "Your brothers are cooking breakfast. And Purple is still avoiding everyone.". Skylar added, "No one has seen Mario or Dustin yet.". I asked, "What about Hoppy?". Zeke replied, "She was one of the first people here. But then she went to go find Dustin cause he's not usually this late.". It is weird that he's not here by now. Actually he's been really silent ever since the Monokuma incident at the gym last night. I wonder if he's doing ok? Kamek said, "It feels weird that I haven't been the last one to arrive lately.". Zeke said, "I'm surprised that you even bother to show up.". Kamek said, "Says the brain eating zombie.". Skylar said, "Shut up Kamek! We don't need your crap today!". I then started a conversation to lighten up the mood. We talked for a couple minutes and the Flame and Jolt brought out waffles. Flame asked, "Um, are we missing some people?". Tails explained, "Purple is hiding, no one has seen Dustin or Mario yet and Hoppy went to go look for them.". Hoppy said as she and Mario came in, "I'm here!". Sonic jokingly said, "I think you summoned them buddy!". Hoppy said, "I couldn't get Dustin out of his dorm but I got Mario!". Mario yawned and said, "Morning guys! Sorry I'm late!". Jolt said, "You good man? You look like you didn't sleep last night.". Mario said, "Yeah, I'm good. I couldn't sleep last night.". Sonic said, "I don't blame you. Sleeping here isn't easy.". Flame said, "I guess I'll drop off Dustin's and Purple's breakfast at their dorms.".

After everyone ate their breakfast, everyone went off to do their own thing. Well except for me and Mr. Krabs. I asked, "Hey Mr. Krabs, want to come with me to the library?". Mr. Krabs said, "I don't see why not. Maybe it'll get my mind off the Money Motive.". He's trying his best to not think about it. Hopefully I can help. Mr. Krabs continued, "Maybe the library has a book about sailing. It'll be nice to get reminded about me sailor days.". I questioned, "You were a sailor?". Mr. Krabs said, "Yep, in me earlier days I sailed the seven seas!". I wonder how that worked since he lives underwater? My questions doesn't matter right now, I gotta help Mr. Krabs keep his mind off the $1,000,000 so he doesn't kill anyone. So the two of us went to the library. When we arrived in the library, Tails and Carrie were sitting at the table. We went up to them and I asked, "Hey guys what's up?". Tails said, "Hey Rainer and Mr. Krabs! Me and Carrie were thinking of starting a book club.". I asked, "A book club?". Carrie said, "Yeah, it distracts us from the stress of the killing game.". Mr. Krabs said to Carrie, "I never took you as the reading type.". Carrie said, "Reading has always been an enjoyable pastime for me.". Tails asked, "Do you guys want to join?". Mr. Krabs said, "I don't see why not. I'm in lads!". I said, "I'm in too! It'll be fun!". Tails said, "Cool, go find a book and join us for some reading!". Mr. Krabs suggested that we look in the archive because there could be a really good sailor book in there. I looked through some of the books until I found a book called, 'Pokemon Anatomy: Kanto edition'. Mr. Krabs asked, "What's that you got there lad?". I said while looking through the book, "It's an anatomy book based on the Pokemon that lived in my region.". I then see pages that are about the anatomy of vaporeons, flareons and jolteons. AKA, anatomy of me, Flame and Jolt! I nervously said, "It has anatomy of me and my brothers in it! This can't be good, someone could use this information against us!". Mr. Krabs suggested, "Then you should hide it in your dorm.". I said, "Are we allowed to do that?". Mr. Krabs said, "There's no rules against it. And there's no librarians to stop you.". I said, "If I hide this then no one could use this against us. Thanks for the idea Mr. Krabs.". Mr. Krabs said, "No problem lad! Let's go to the other two now.". We head back to Tails and Carrie with our books.

After we met back up with Tails and Carrie, we read our books for a little while. Then we spent around two hours talking about our books. Tails said, "So that book is about creatures in your forest?". I said, "Yep, including the creatures that me and my brothers are.". Carrie said, "That doesn't sound good in the situation we're in.". I said, "Yeah, I'm going to make sure no one else finds this book.". Tails said, "That's a good idea.". Carrie asked, "Wait if there's an anatomy book about Rainer and her brothers. Is there one for the rest of us?". Mr. Krabs said, "I don't know. But if there is then it's a real concern.". Tails said, "We should check to make sure. Where did you find this anatomy book?". I answered, "The library archive.". Carrie said, "Oh great. Kamek probably read some of the anatomy books by now.". Oh yeah, Kamek has been reading books from there ever since the second floor was unlocked. Now I'm concerned if he's read the Pokemon anatomy book. Tails asked, "Should we be worried about that?". I said, "It's best to keep an eye on him for now. It's also best we keep the anatomy possibility a secret for now.". Tails said, "That sounds like a good idea.". I said, "Maybe we should change the topic for now. So why did you guys pick your books?". Mr. Krabs said, "I picked me book because it'll take me back to me sailing days.". Tails said, "You were a sailor? Cool!". Mr. Krabs said, "Yep, me life was full of adventures. What about you lad?". Tails said, "I picked this book about plane engineering because it reminds me of my plane back home.". I questioned, "You own a plane?". Tails said, "Yeah, The Tornado! It was originally owned by Sonic before we met.". Carrie said, "That's cool! I picked this book about Minecraft Builds to help inspire my future builds!". I asked, "Hey when we first met you said it's weird that you were into building, why did you say that?". Carrie said, "Well I'm a creeper. Creepers are known to destroy builds by exploding. I never liked the idea of exploding the beautiful builds that other people made. So I chose to create instead of destroy.". Tails said, "This was a great book club meeting. You guys want to meet up again tomorrow.". The three of us agreed and we all left the library. I feel like I bonded with Tails and Carrie.

Me and Mr. Krabs went to the school store. He wanted to search for monocoins there. While he was searching for monocoins, I said, "Hey I have something I want to ask you.". Mr. Krabs said, "What is it lad?". I asked, "When I gave you that necklace you looked upset. Is there something wrong with it?". Mr. Krabs said, "No lad there's nothing wrong with the necklace. It just reminds me of me own daughter.". I said, "You have a daughter!". Mr. Krabs said, "Yep, her name was Pearl.". I said, "That's why… Mr. Krabs I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to make you sad.". Mr. Krabs said, "No lad, I'm not sad. I'm glad to have something that reminded me of her. I just miss her.". I asked, "Would it help if you talk about it?". Mr. Krabs smiled and began telling me about his daughter. After an hour of him telling me about Pearl, I said, "She sounds like a wonderful crab daughter.". Mr. Krabs said, "Oh she isn't a crab. She's actually a teenage whale.". I questioned, "A whale? But how does a crab-". Mr. Krabs said, "It's best not to think about it.". Mr. Krabs sighed and said, "Thanks for talking with me. I really needed it.". I said, "No problem. Let's head to the dining room. It's just about dinner time.". Me and Mr. Krabs went to the dining room. I feel like I bonded with Mr. Krabs today.

When we arrived at the dining room I noticed that Hoppy, Dustin, and Purple were missing. Of course my brothers were in the dining room cooking dinner. When we sat down, Mario and Sonic were having an arm wrestling match. Sonic said, "What's the matter Plumber? Am I tougher than the turtle you fight daily?". Mario said, "Ha no way! I'm just going easy on you!". I said, "Looks like those two are becoming friends.". Tails said, "It's more like freimines. They had a friendly rivalry for years now.". Skylar questioned, "Wait, you guys knew each other before the killing game?". Sonic said, "Yeah, we've competed in the Mushroom Kingdom Olympics together.". They were in the Olympics? Wow, that's really impressive. Mario then won the arm wrestle and said, "Who's too slow now Sonic?". Sonic said, "Aw man! Good game Mario.", and Mario said, "You too Sonic!". Flame and Jolt came in with a big plate of pizza bites. Flame said, "Hey guys! Hope you're hungry!". Jolt said, "Looks like we're missing people again.". Kamek said, "Yeah, the goose, the astronaut, and the rabbit.". Then we heard Hoppy's voice, "I'm here!". Hoppy then came in and said, "Sorry for being late, I was just getting…". Dustin then came in and followed Hoppy to the table. I said, "Dustin! Are you ok? You've been missing all day!". Dustin didn't answer, he just stayed silent. Mario said, "Maybe he's still shaken up from the Monokuma incident.". Mr. Krabs said, "Lad, don't blame yourself. This situation got to your head and you made a reckless decision. Believe me, I'm trying me best to not let the money motive make me do something reckless.". Dustin said, "B-But you could've died because of me!". Mr. Krabs said, "Actually lad, I knew I would've survived. I knew that me shell would've protected me. Me shell is one of the toughest shells in the deep sea!". Dustin said, "That's rehearsing to know.". Then the 15 of us ate dinner.

After dinner, I decided to check in on my brothers. I figured they'd be in the sauna, so I headed to the sauna. When I entered I saw that they were getting ready to go in. I went up to them and said, "Hey guys!". Flame said, "Hey Rainer!". I then said, "I thought you'd be working on the laptop.". Jolt said, "I decided to end my work on that for today. We're just about to relax in the sauna. Wanna join?". I said, "Sure! I could use a nice sauna experience.". The three of us went to the sauna. The sauna felt so nice! Flame sighed and said, "For a murder school, it has a nice sauna.". I asked, "So what have you guys been up to?". Jolt said, "Other than working on the laptop. I got to know Skylar and Zeke more. Apparently those two have known each other for over hundreds of years.". Flame said, "They're that old?". Jolt said, "Well I believe that their age works like vampires.". I said, "So to them it would be in their teenage years.". Jolt said, "That's what I believe.". Flame said, "I got to know Mario. Apparently he eats a lot of mushrooms.". I asked, "Mushrooms?". Flame said, "Yeah, he said that it makes him stronger. I don't know if I want to know what he means. Anyway, what about you Rainer?". I said, "Me and Ender had agreed to keep an eye on Mr. Krabs. To make sure that Mr. Krabs don't give into greed. And because of that I gotten to know a lot about Mr. Krabs.". Flame said, "That's cool!". Jolt said, "Yeah, wish you luck on keeping an eye on him!". I said, "I think we'll be fine. How have you guys been doing lately?". Jolt said, "I've been pretty stressed. But I'm hopeful that I can get this laptop to work.". Flame said, "I've been pretty stressed too but I'm trying my best to distract myself.". I said, "I'm in the same boat, Flame.". After talking in the sauna for a little bit, the three of us decided to head to bed before the nighttime announcement played. So we entered our dorms and went to sleep. Ending the day.

The monitors turned on to reveal Monokuma and he said, "Puh hu hu! Wake up students! Get ready for this amazing day and the exciting events that will happen! Puh hu hu!". I got up and wondered what he meant by exciting events. Before I could do anything, my doorbell kept ringing like someone was in a panic. I quickly went to answer the door and Ender was on the other side. I asked, "Ender, are you ok?". Ender said, "No, I have a feeling that something bad has happened!". I asked, "What?! Why do you say that?". Ender said, "When I checked on Mr. Krabs this morning, I saw that he was still sleeping in bed. But when I tried to wake him up, it turned out that a fake Mr. Krabs was in his bed.". I said, "A fake Mr. Krabs?! Did he sneak out last night?". Ender said, "That's what I believe.". Mr. Krabs snuck out and what Monokuma said in his morning announcement. No he didn't. There's no way that he would do that! I said, "We need to find him now!". Ender said, "I agree!". Ender and I quickly left my dorm.

We split off to search the first floor. I searched the despair hotel and Ender searched the school side. When I entered the dining room I noticed that everyone but my brothers, Purple, Kamek, Rocky, Dustin, Ender and Mr. Krabs were there. Mario said, "Good morning Rainer!". Carrie asked, "Is everything ok?". I said, "I can't find Mr. Krabs anywhere. Has anyone seen him anywhere?". Zeke said, "No, he hasn't arrived yet.". Tails said, "There's a chance that Mr. Krabs slept through the morning announcement.". I replied, "No, when Ender checked on him this morning he wasn't there. And didn't this morning's announcement sound weird to you guys?". Zeke said, "Monokuma said to get ready for the exciting events.". Mario said, "You don't think Monokuma meant…". Carrie said, "It's the only thing that Monokuma gets excited over.". Hoppy said, "And there are more people not here too!". Sonic said, "I think we should help look. We need to make sure that everyone is alright!.". Carrie said, "Yeah that's a good idea!". We all then left the dining room and entered the hallway. Sonic said, "I think some of us should check the second floor.". I said, "I'll head up there right now.". Skylar said, "I'll join you.". Sonic said, "Same!". The three of us went to the staircase and went upstairs. Skylar said, "So what's our game plan here?". I said, "We should split up and search different areas of the floor.". Sonic said, "Sounds like a plan to me! I'll check the classrooms and bathrooms!". Skylar said, "I'll check the pool and changing rooms.". I said, "That leaves me with the library.". We split off and I went to the library door. I felt my heart pounding as I opened the door. And what I saw in the library was true despair. Another person has been killed!

15 students remain…
