Let us see the drama commence...also no FT this time due to no votes. Enjoy the adventures of Kogami and his merry guest as they journey to be killed or not to be killed or be executed by Monokuma.

Chapter Text

CONTINUE THE GAME!?

...

Of course, we will!!! That is the entire existence of this story. Now let's continue the story where we saw a three-way split between the guest. Who side would you join in this issue? Light Yagami and the clue finders? Sousuke Sagara and the escape attempts? Or the MC Kogami Richiko and the neutralist? Please comment it down below!!!

Now back to the story!!!

Scene: Monokuma on a TV Screen.

Monokuma: Wakey, wakey! It's now Morning! I hope you give me a hopeless today and spread the despair!!

You know the more I hear Monokuma's voice the more I feel like I want to hug him. I kinda want to hug him if he wasn't so dirty mouthed and evil.

Kogami: Of course saying that in public will just get me a big target. Even more than Light and Sousuke with what they're doing. I should keep myself a low profile so that my murder plan will come together...eventually when I get desperate here which takes quite a while and a lot.

*footsteps*

?...Did someone hear me? I hope not because that might end up getting me killed.

Kogami: Real smooth there Kogami, now I am a target. Should find a way to solve this dilemma as soon as I can.

Let's just go to the kitchen and get my breakfast. Breakfast which contains greasy and crispy bacon, fluffy and sunny eggs of pure gold happiness and flat and sweet pancakes.

Kogami: Why do I always make myself more hungry than normal. Better stop in order to keep my sanity and perfect balance like a seesaw.

[Move to Hallway]

Nagisa: Kogami, are you alright?

Kogami: Of course I am, why do you ask something so random?

Moka: Because it looks something happened in there. I mean So-

Nagisa: Moka, can you please stay quite? We don't want to say anything about it.

Moka: Oh yeah, I forgot. I just got curious so I let myself slip up a little...

Kogami: Is this about someone or something?

Nagisa: Nothing, it's just with yesterdays event with Sousuke and Light I can't feel a little paranoid because there is a certain amount of distress between ourselves.

Moka: Absolutely!!! I mean we three are in different causes that might end up straining our relationships.

When did we ever started a relationship?

Kogami: Personally there isn't anything to worry about. It's like real life where people have different opinions on different topics. We just have to respect that between us.

Nagisa: I know but with the place were in, any type of fighting might lead to a terrible confrontation that might result in someones...

Moka: And I don't want to see anyone here hurt. Both mentally and physically.

That is oddly sweet coming from the girl with an ice queen phase.

Moka: So I want to know if the infighting between us will result in something happening. I want to prevent that no matter.

Kogami: I may not be a professional psychologist, but I do analyze things on a daily basis so I can give you my thoughts. People here will kill when they get push to the breaking point and if people are weak then they'll do it soon.

Moka: That does not help-

Kogami: So to counter this we need to give strength to others so that they won't be the ones falling into despair. If we do that then it might be possible to bore Monokuma to the point of letting us go. Why keep prisoners when you have no need for them.

Nagisa: And if he tries to eliminate us then he'll be in a tough fight against out-group that consist of a soldier, an archer and even a professional assassin. We can take him down easily.

Kogami: So that's my answer. Have I made those dark feelings inside you lessen or was it ineffective?

Moka: No, in fact, I think I feel a lot better despite the thing you said first. I promise you we'll not be weak when we confront despair or defending our friends.

Nagisa: I know now working together is important so hopefully we can get the group to unite together soon. I mean, for now, it's good for us to have our separate path so we can clear our heads and think clearer when we inevitably join forces.

Kogami: Good and I think being in different groups might be useful to our cause. We need to watch over the others to make sure nothing nasty happens.

Moka: Alright then, I have to catch up with Light's group. It might be difficult though to think of an excuse when I get there.

Nagisa: And Sousuke might end up scolding me for being late to, I guess that's what I get for being too worried.

Kogami: Good to the both of you. I personally have something to check, I'll see both of you in the kitchen along with the others.

Seeing what I plan to do is going to take a while but whatever.

[Move to Hidden Room]

Kogami: I didn't notice at first but the hidden room actually has two exits despite having two entrances. The wall there...

[Examine Wall]

Kogami: Is revolvable leading to the hallway with the guest rooms. However, it can't be accessed through the guest's hallway seeing that the mechanics only work when being push in the right place. Someone can easily use this as an escape route if they want to pick something as obvious as the air duct beside the staircase hidden from plain sight.

Well if you want to access the air duct you need the right tool to open it meaning this person is who I should keep an eye for now.

Kogami: I wonder if that person will be the person to initiate the killing...The pain it will be if that person betrays us.

...

I spent too much time checking the hidden room. I need to get to the kitchen as soon as I can.

Kogami: Hopefully the feeling of being watched is going to end once I enter the kitchen or leave this place.

Why do I have that feeling two eyeballs are sending their sights on me?

[Move to Kitchen]

Yami: I see you just arrive, mind explaining?

Kogami: if I told you that I was going to commit a murder, would you believe me?

Clement: W-were you? I don't want to know what would happen to us if a murder did happen.

Shinji: Especially with the rules given to us, still confused about what this Class Trial they mention and how we need to debate on who the killer is.

Maki: I don't believe you. No one is stupid enough to admit that they were planning to kill...actually someone is, but they're not here.

Kogami: Looks like you got the right answer there Maki, around of applause to the rich girl.

Maki: How did you know I was a rich girl? I never even said anything like my high statue and the many houses my family owns.

Kogami: Because you just told me, Maki thanks for confirming my theory. Now I have another theory and this is base on the arrangement between the table.

Josuke: Why are we the ones seating here while the people who are either with Sousuke or Light are not here? They just called everyone to seat together so they could do things like making plans and strategies.

Aigis: Unfortunately we were not affiliated with anyone among them which is why we were not allowed to sit next to them at all. I guess were a third group then consisting of people who don't choose to get involved.

I see, to think we were staying in a mansion instead of high school yet this still happen. I start to wonder if this group has any hope.

Kogami: Do you think someone here should be the called the third head? If they have their own leaders we might as well have one here too.

Yami: I don't see the necessity of this. It doesn't matter if the other groups have a leader since it's our business and not theirs.

Josuke: But what if there is something happening among the group and they need to inform us to? Someone here should at least be able to get info from either of those guys.

Maki: Looks like there was some sort practicality in nominating a leader then you first thought.

Yami: ... I see everyone wants to do this, I guess there is no harm in making a choice.

See even assassins can make mistakes, like missing the target or knowing what is practical or not.

Clement: Alright then, who is the leader? I don't want to do it because trying to get between those two beasts might be too much for me.

Shinji: I don't mind doing it since I have nothing to do, but if anyone else here wants it then fine.

Maki: I...I'm a follower! Not a leader!

Josuke: I could call the shoots, but it would better if someone else did it. I think with how things are I will get bust real soon.

Yeah, especially when we're dealing with happy-trigger Sousuke and prideful Light.

Yami: I choose not to be the leader.

Kogami: So it's either Shinji, Josuke or me I guess since no one else wants it-

Shinji: I prefer Kogami...he seems to know more about what to do.

Josuke: I'm not sure if that was a good id-

Aigis: I agree to this. Kogami here seems to be able to handle the situation with how calm he's acting.

And I knew I shouldn't have said that since they were planning to transfer to someone else. And I didn't notice the tips and hints.

Kogami: I guess I don't have a choice in this.

Maki: Me and Clement obviously don't want us to do it, so anyone else is fine with me.

Josuke: Could you please listen...I don't trust Kogami...

Kogami: Since Shinji and Aigis votes for me, I already have half the vote. Let me guess Yami you're going to say-

Yami: You're the third head of the groups Kogami. Make sure you get all the info we need from those two others.

...I hate my life here, maybe even worse then my life in the Tragedy.

Kogami: You know what, I'm not hungry right now. I'll see you guys some other time, maybe lunch after having a private talk between Sousuke and Light,

Because it's best to remove this annoying dilemma as soon as I can. Hopefully, those two won't do anything horrible to me.

[Move to Bedroom]

In the end, I end up being roped to this mess despite not trying to get involved since the beginning. Might as well get this little discussion between those two done-

*knock, knock*

Kogami: And another presence has entered my domain. Hopefully, they aren't the same one because the first clearly has no trust between me and them.

With me talking about murder in an overly dramatic fashion that could easily get me arrested in public like a poor sap.

Makise: Finally I get another chance to talk to you. You were gone the entire time during breakfast and when you were actually there I have to end up being part of an annoying meeting. I know planning takes time, but sometimes I wonder if this was a good idea especially with Light's restrictions.

???: You think that's bad because Sousuke is much worse. He tries us all like a military unit despite being a bunch of innocent kidnap victims.

Koneko and Takeo...I guess the two heads are not in sync with there personal click.

Takeo: What's wrong with Sousuke's method? I mean it helps us escape so it's a good thing.

Koneko: Maybe the plan could work, but if it fails then I don't even want to imagine what Monokuma might do to us.

I would predict a healthy amount

Takeo: If that were the case then I should be the one punish, I won't let Monokuma do bad things to anyone here.

Koneko: Still it would be a pain to deal with two injured people, you and Sousuke are still part of our group.

Takeo: Aww, thanks for caring about us Koneko. You should be more open about this with everyone.

Koneko: Like I will, I'm not sure if I can even trust anyone here with that rule still around.

Kogami: May I ask why all three you guys are here?

Makise: I'm here because I need a break from Light's plan. I know they are all important since it helps us learn about this place, but with all the books he wants me to read it will take days before our plan will commence.

Koneko: Compare to Sousuke, who always yells at us to practice what we're going to do, I would rather read plenty of books.

Takeo: You shouldn't complain, both of them are doing there best. I'm kind of jealous of how determine they are in helping.

Kogami: I should not tell you this, but complete strangers might have ulterior motives with there actions. So try to think this deeper.

Makise: Good to see despite your chuunibyou side you have a really well train mind over there.

Kogami: Forgot my title? Unlike everyone here, I actually attended Hope's Peak, the school where Ultimate's study.

Takeo: Hope's Peak? I never heard of it, does it take place near a cliff?

Makise: A school near a cliff, do you really think that is good architecture? If a terrible earthquake happens, the school mind ends up falling off with the cliff.

Kogami: I guess I'll explain...if you don't tell the two heads.

Koneko: Why not? Scratch that, I rather not give a good reason for Sousuke to go suspicion mode and I wouldn't want to be in his bad side by telling Light.

From that statement alone, I can piece together two worlds pieces to come up with a single knowledge. Light and Sousuke don't trust each other and I don't trust them either. I wouldn't be surprised if any of them got involved if a murder ever happened.

[Talk to Takeo]

Takeo: So Hope's Peak, what is that place? Is it where hope come from?

Kogami: That is a bit correct, but not the complete story.

Takeo: Then finish the story I would like to know. So what is Hope's Peak?

Kogami: Well for starter, have you ever heard of schools that are described as prestigious and elitist?

Makise: You means things like Oxford and Harvard, so this Hope's Peak is also a school with the same title like them.

Koneko: Is this a secret test by them? I'm pretty sure instigating murder is something that should be considered illegal.

Kogami: It might be possible...those Ultimates are crazy and weird, one of them might be powerful enough to do this without getting into trouble.

Makise: There is that word, what are the Ultimates?

This will probably explain why were they given these titles, but I'm a bit hesitant because giving someone a quick ego boost is nothing but more pain. ...Well if it's these three then I don't mind it.

[Talk to Makise]

Kogami: Ultimates are the students of Hope's Peak. The Ultimate of the field they were given.

Koneko: You mean like being an Ultimate Doctor or a Lawyer? Are they teenagers like us or adults because I find it hard to believe their people our age that do either of those?

Kogami: Believe it or not they are. I've seen those two titles before and even non-intellectual ones like fighter and runner. I was the Ultimate Puzzle Maker there too, most probably due to my long reign in puzzle tournaments.

I miss those glorious days, now they are gone after everything the Tragedy did to us. Shit on our lives.

Taeko: But then why are we given these titles? I've help people before, but everything I did is something a normal bodyguard would do.

Makise: Like for example?

Taeko: I remember saving my friends from a falling steel beam...

Koneko: Oh crap! That is not nothing if anything that gives you the right to be called an Ultimate.

Makise: I'm already well published in the studies of physics and time travel, so I can see why I would be considered to be one.

Koneko: My way of fighting has to be as perfect as I can make it, don't want any stupid perverts trying to get away from me! If I see them then I'll-

Makise: Oww! Please don't hit me again.

Kogami: And so the first strike has been made, what a moment!

Koneko: Sorry, anyway so this school has something to do with what's happening here, am I right?

Kogami: Surprisingly yes, I wouldn't think it would seeing what happened to Hope's Peak.

Koneko: What happened? Is this story more complicated then I thought?

It could or it could not, depends on if you believe every word I'm about to say. Which is difficult in a world where words are not to be trusted always.

[Talk to Koneko]

Koneko: So what happened with Hope's Peak? Did you say that you're surprised they could be behind this?

Makise: It was a prestigious school so I doubt they would be able to hide something like this to the outside world. But it looks like there is more here then we thought.

Taeko: Also a school wouldn't do something like kidnap one of there former students.

Kogami: Thank you for your opinions, but the reason why isn't as obvious as you think. You see the school ended up getting destroyed.

Koneko: How? Did it have to be shut-down?

Kogami: Not as simple as you think, it was actually destroyed by a fanatic group called Ultimate Despair. A group form by students that use to study in Hope's Peak.

Makise: So they destroyed that school, not just any ordinary one but a school of the most elite people in the world. Hold on, are you-

Kogami: I am not, I was actually hunted down by them before and I kept running away ever since. If I had any involvement with the fall of Hope's Peak and the Tragedy that occurred afterward then I wouldn't be in this life anymore...

Taeko: The Tragedy...I don't think I want to know about this. It sounds something really sad for you.

Kogami: Yes it is...

Koneko: Hmph! I was going to ask details, but the way you look tells me that is something you don't want to talk about. Alright, I guess I'll leave that topic alone for now.

Makise: At the very least we have a good understanding of the things going on in our situation. This entire killing game is in a theme with the school you study, could the group you said, Ultimate Despair, be behind this entire thing?

Kogami: I know it's not the Ultimate Despair and for good reasons. Reasons I will not explain yet.

Like the fact that Monokuma is the mascot of Ultimate Despair, because if I say that then the people here will soon stray away from the truth.

Kogami: Anyway I think this is enough conversation between all of us, we should head out for a bit and give ourselves a temporary breather.

Taeko: Alright then, I guess we going to leave. See you!

Makise: Taeko why are dragging us with you- Oww! You're gripping to tight!

And with that, I am left alone in my room. I hope that this story won't spread too quickly or ever if I have the choice.

Kogami: I guess I should inform the group about what I learned...

This is going to be an interesting story, a story I hope to live to tell.

[Move to Living Room]

After going to Yami's room and telling her to get everyone to meet up there, I read a comfortable book while waiting. Which is spoiled by the confrontation of...

Light: We need to talk.

Light Yagami the Ultimate Tactician.

Kogami: Make it quick, I want to return to the story of the Brave Little Toaster.

Light: Interesting story taste, but that isn't the issue I want to discuss.

Is there anything wrong with loving cute little buddies trying to get back home after being thrown away?

[Talk to Light]

Kogami: Did something come up? You never like talking to me.

Light: I think we both know that something happened to you. Something that contains lots of information.

Did Makise tell on me? I wouldn't be surprised, but a little hurt.

Kogami: Was it something about this school...or is it something about my past?

Light: You know about something, something related to our kidnapping.

Kogami: You mean I know the kidnapper?

Light: Maybe you have an idea, but it's not completely confirmed. What you know however is the theme of this entire situation. It was base on the school you use to study!

So someone did tell him, or at the very least he heard it past my room. If so then I got to be more careful with what I say.

Kogami: Does that make me a suspect to you?

Light: ...At first it looks like it, but the kidnapper is smart. He wouldn't have revealed information like that especially if that will make them suspicious to the others.

Kogami: But if I'm not the kidnapper, what am I?

A normal puzzle solver who ended getting unlucky with his encounters?

Light: I think your somebody the kidnapper has a connection to. Not only Monokuma's confirms that, but the fact you know the killer's motif makes it all the more likely.

Kogami: ...

It's true I know the culprit's pattern, but I wouldn't give the name of the mastermind even if I knew it because of obvious reasons...

Light: The more you stay quiet, the more suspicious you become. However, your also too valuable to lose so I can't just use you as a scapegoat if a person here snaps.

So you were prepared for that to Mr. Tactician. Cutting lose sanity people for the group's improvement.

Kogami: If I am valuable that means you can't really do much to me. You can't kill me or threaten me because I know something important that no one here knows.

Light: Who says that telling me everything is for my benefit?

Kogami: Huh? What are you talking about?

This guy...this guy is someone I should never underestimate. He can read the lines before anyone else here.

Light: You see if you intend to keep a secret that powerful, it's not surprising if someone becomes too desperate to find it out. So for your benefit, it would be good if you tell me everything and let that heavy weight down.

Kogami: And if I don't comply?

Light: I won't do anything to you, but the others might. I can guarantee you that I won't ever betray you if you do what I need to be done.

Kogami: Might share me what they are? I won't make a move until I get all the details-

???: Kogami, I see your bust discussing with Light.

And with that my personal group has come with Yami leading the pack.

Yami: Mind sharing us what you're doing with Light? It seems suspicious that you are contradicting your own words earlier.

Light: It was nothing important. I just wanted to ask if anyone was still interested in joining my cause. The offer also reaches to you guys.

Aigis: From my analysis, no one here wants to take it. They seem to unnerve with that form of aggressiveness.

Light: I understand, I hope you can accept it later before the plan is completed. [Leave]

Clement: "The plan is completed" why do I want to go home more time I spend here.

Shinji: We should still try to get used to here. It's painful but this is our home for now.

Maki: By the way Kogami, what was the discussion between both of you was all about? It's obvious from what you said that it's not the complete story.

Josuke: We pick you as the leader so please show us reason to trust you.

Reason to trust me...I have more reasons for you not to trust me. What you saw is one of them.

[Talk to Josuke]

Josuke: I don't want any secrets between us, so mind telling us about what you guys were talking about?

Looks like I have very little choice in the matter.

Kogami: You better pay attention since I'm going to just say this once...

...

Aigis: So there is a school that this entire killing game was base on, and it was a school that you studied in.

Maki: That makes you suspicious, how do we know that your not the kidnapper behind this?

Kogami: Believe it or not, but saying I'm the mastermind might end up being a big mistake for all of you.

Clement: Why!? Because you would all try targeting us in order to hide your secret?

Shinji: I think he's trying to say he wasn't the mastermind and were all making a mistake in the accusation.

But that is base on my word so it's not going to be a shocker if they don't intend to believe me.

Yami: I don't know if it's true or not, but I don't intend to do anything to Kogami for now.

Maki: Huh? Why?

Yami: Because it may be true that he has things that make him more involved in the case than others, that doesn't mean it's him automatically. Anyone here could be the mastermind, so it's best to treat everyone the share amount of trust.

Shinji: Which means we don't become bias towards others...I guess that's something I can live with.

Josuke: But remember Kogami isn't completely normal, he's the only one here who knows about the themes the kidnapper has done.

Yami: We know that which is why we should put more trust in him. You think the culprit would do such a thing especially when that gives him a huge disadvantage?

Maybe they had a thought of using reverse psychology.

Maki: She has a good point...I think we might have gone a little overboard in the accusation.

Josuke: I...I guess. Maybe I was too hard on you Kogami, sorry dude.

Kogami: Nothing personal...just try to trust me more next time.

Although trust is the last thing I deserve.

Aigis: Now that the situation has been diffuse may we learn now about the other two groups.

Kogami: That was what I was hoping to get finish as soon as I can. Hopefully, you can understand why this group is probably in the best shape out of everyone.

[Talk to Aigis]

Aigis: Anything to report about the two groups and their leader?

Kogami: Tell me something everyone, what would happen if you were being led by a hot-blooded soldier or a cold masked tactician? You get pretty much the lifestyle the leader will give you and do you think it's a good one.

Clement: I see...hehe were in the middle of a hot and cold situation. Two complete opposites that oppose each other, there is no way I want to get trap there!

Shinji: So not picking a side was a good move huh? Finally, my luck is doing something good for me.

Maki: That depends on Kogami and how he leads. But I think he will be fair so we shouldn't worry too much.

Unless I was the mastermind like you said.

Yami: So what is the current plans between the two of them? We may have a good idea of there methods, but their current agenda is critically unknown.

Clement: I thought they said it was trying to escape, but Sousuke was going aggressive and Light was going to think of a plan base on information around here.

Josuke: I think she meant what those two intend to do. Their first step in getting what they want.

Kogami: You think I would know?

Yami: Yes.

Kogami: You're correct. I know Sousuke is making a training regimen that the others have to follow in order to succeed their goals...not something I ever plan to do here, and Light is clearly trying to bait others into looking at him while some of his allies gather information. Kurisu is one of those people Light has as a scout.

Shinji: So was it Makise who told Light about everything you know? I don't think you would tell him anything.

Kogami: Is it important for me to answer because the truth is painful and I want to forget it. Ouch, the truth hurts...

Maki: No need since it's obvious what the answer is. I just hope I don't say anything humiliating to one of his companions if anything I would rather die and take the secrets with me.

Aigis: At least you know what to not do, it's very important to keep classified information out of the hands of the public.

Josuke: Aren't we the public and don't we know already she has secrets? That's not a good way of hiding secrets.

Kogami: She hasn't said anything though so it's not a problem yet. So we know about the two groups and what they're doing, who do you think we should try keeping our distance?

Clement: K-keep our distance!? But aren't we a group that's supposed to trust each other? We shouldn't be suspicious towards other-

Shinji: I know people like Light are dangerous, they'll exploit their power in order to get people to do what they want. I've seen people do that before and I know it won't be any different here.

Maki: I agree, Light is a creep that I would never get close to. He tries to be smart, but the more I see him the more he looks like a sociopath.

Josuke: Seriously? I would pick Sousuke, the guy criticize the hair! And no one talks about it except me!

Yami: Is that the only reason you would pick him?

Josuke: ...Yes. But Sousuke is too war crazy that he might end up causing one.

Aigis: It might be due to his different towards us. People who are raised and live differently will give a portrayal of abnormality to other peers.

Yami: You know I think I agree with that notion. Sousuke is definitely the most dangerous and my reasons are not that hard to explain. He has a spirit of a warrior.

Clement: I-is that it? Nothing else?

Yami: Let's just say I have more reasons, but they are either not confirm or hard to believe. Believe what you will Clement.

This discussion has gone far too long.

Kogami: I'm going to excuse myself, I think I need to go end this conversation for now.

Shinji: Is it because you're not feeling well?

Kogami: No I just think I've heard too much talking that I need a breather. Excuse me while I go back to my room.

Aigis: Just make sure you don't become a body when we find you, that would not be recommended.

I'll keep that as an advice to the heart and not to the brain. If I did only paranoia and stress will be piled up on me.

[Move to Bedroom]

Finally a break from all the talking. I guess some time with my puzzles will give me the resolve to talk about the plans I have for this place later.

...

Time: 7:00 PM. Reason: Spending too much time on a puzzle. What to do: Tell the group of my plans.

Hopefully, they will see through these plans as useful then filler. They are more important then they look at a first glance.

[Move to Hallway]

Death has come for me, by that I mean the kid.

Death: Do you know about information related to this kidnapping.

Kogami: If I do, what about it?

Death: Tell me all the secrets you know! You can't hide them forever, we'll eventually figure it out.

Talk about being dramatic.

Kogami: You should ask if I knew any secrets so here I'll do it for you. Do I have secrets? Yes, I do, but why should I tell you?

Death: You know with the situation you may end up being killed.

Kogami: I'm not afraid because no one can kill me. I have seen plenty of death and I use the information I learned in order to solve the puzzle of surviving people's attempt on your life.

Death: The people here are different. If what you said is true then you know we are not ordinary.

Kogami: Maybe, but I've dealt with talented people in my time surviving. You don't have what it takes to get me cornered.

Death: I guess we have nothing to discuss-...That painting is not perfectly aligned! I've got to fix it before it's too late!!! [Leave]

What was that for? I guess I need to get used to it since I'm pretty much a guy in the spotlight with everything I know.

Kogami: What fun you gave me Makise, thanks for the sentiment.

[Move to Cafeteria]

As I enter I see the suspicious dagger-like glares or mouse shyness of the stares given to me by some others of Light's little harem. Sousuke's group probably notice, but only look confused than anything. Except for Sousuke who is giving a demonic glare to the tactician.

Aigis: Kogami, I procure a sit for you to enjoy. It's with the other members so please join us as soon as you-

Kogami: I can because here I am.

Shinji: I wonder why your late most of the time in eating. At least your not last again because Death isn't here.

Probably due to his never-ending quest for balance in the universe.

Maki: What's up with the list there Kogami? Is it your murder plan?

Josuke: Maki, how likely is it someone is going to make a murder plan and leave it out in the open.

Maki: Remind me to never do something like that especially with my diary. I won't forgive her for reading it! She'll pay when I get back home.

If you get back home that is...

Kogami: If you want to these are somethings we might want to do while we're here. If we're staying here for a little bit then we should try to improve this place like we own it.

Shinji: Aren't we guest here thought?

Yami: Maybe for one of us it's the master of the mansion, we just don't know it.

Master of the mansion, I would rather call them baron or king because master is way too cliche for an evil mastermind.

Clement: Mind telling us then what's on the list then? Though the idea of staying here long doesn't comfort me.

Maki: Me neither, but I won't complain if this will help improve living here even for just a little.

Kogami: Who knows, this might end up being the most comfortable kidnapping incident in the world. Hip, hip, hooray!!!

[Talk to Clement]

Clement: Let's see here...getting a fireplace ready in the living room, cleaning out the poison from the medicine in the clinic, increasing the air conditioning, redecorate Monokuma related, have better security and trying to find a way to get more rooms. I probably can deal with the aircon, but nothing else since I'm an inventor, not a carpenter.

Josuke: I guess I'll handle the medicine thing since I know my way around it.

Maki: If you need a decorator then look no further then me. I'll get this place much more appealing than before which isn't too difficult.

Shinji: I can search with Aigis for new rooms since we don't have much better to then wait around.

Yami: And I know my way around murders so security is probably left best for me. However, I can't guarantee it to be completely impenetrable.

I hear plenty of people say that and fail, and this one hopefully isn't one of them but could be.

Kogami: Then what should I do? I can't just let everyone here commit to the burden of making this place even better. I mean out of everyone I should be the one doing something.

Yami: ...I suggest you study up in case a mystery happens.

Clement: Study up...what do you mean?

Shinji: Don't tell me that you think a murder will happen. Because I was starting to feel a little happy here despite our situation.

Yami: Unfortunately I believe it will still occur...I've seen people and I know people will snap by the time something pushes them to the breaking point.

Josuke: You say like you know someone is about to, is there someone here planning kill?

Yami: Yes...yes I think someone is about to make a move. I can sense it because of someone telling me about a person breaking down to desperation.

Maki: However they didn't say the name of the person, am I right? Because if they did then you would have said that person's name already.

Kogami: And due to your skills as an assassin I would expect you to try taking down that person as soon as possible. Your title shouldn't be considered just a label, it had to be earned for a good reason.

Yami: I have yet to understand the entire thing...just that I know this peace won't last forever. Sorry to ruin the mood, I'm not very hungry.

Aigis: It sounds like she knows something we don't, should we try finding out what is it?

Her words definitely left a great impact on all of us, but...

Kogami: I suggest giving her some room in order to ready herself. She'll say eventually and once it happens we know what to do to counter it.

Clement: I...I guess. Ugh...I just want to go back home to my sister.

Aigis: Should we finish dinner, the food will be cold soon. It's not good to let Taeko's effort go to waste.

Taeko... that name has come out quite a bit. Maybe I should watch out for him and what he does.

Kogami: This will not an easy thing to handle, we better prepare for the worst by first having a full stomach. I may be terrified for my life, but I'm more afraid of starving to death.

...

[Move to Main Hallway]

With that over, I began to prance back to my room in order to gather my thoughts about the day.

Kogami: Hmm? What do you want with me?

Nagisa: Sousuke wants to talk to you tomorrow for a reason, did you get in trouble?

Kogami: I wouldn't know until the talk happens. Tell him to give me the details tomorrow.

Yuno: Kogami...if you try to do anything to jeopardize our plan to escape, then a murder might occur. It might be you who'll become the victim. It will happen if you try to do anything stupid.

Kogami: Stupid is my middle name, so I'm pretty screwed with that condition.

Should I really say that with the Ultimate Stalker? Last thing I need is her to stalk me for the rest of my stay here.

Yuno: You should remember...I don't want to hurt you if I don't need to. [Leave]

Nagisa: Y-Your even weirder than some of my classmates, why do I have a bad feeling about this [Leave]

Now that was an interesting conversation, I shouldn't let this stray me from my goals into this place. Sousuke and Light won't really stop me and my groups move.

Kogami: My inner monologues might get me in trouble like earlier...is that the breaking point Yami was talking about? It was obviously rambling...

Now time to hit the hay.

[Move to Bedroom]

Makise: You finally got here, I was tired of waiting.

Kogami: The lovely Makise, how may I serve you?

Makise: You're exactly as weird as the other guy. To think this place was at least peaceful quiet without Monokuma, but I was proven wrong.

Kogami: Now remember to put that in your findings, like a normal scientist in their crazy laboratory.

Makise: You know scientist have lives outside their work, even Einstein enjoyed a good day at the beach.

Kogami: Was that in the history book? Or was it inside one of those 100 facts you didn't know in history deals?

Makise: ...I promise to never call you delusional ever again if you don't talk about this to anyone.

Kogami: Your the one making deals here, I'm just a poor defenseless kidnap victim that is force to listen to the teen genius words. I'm mesmerized with the soothing sound of the traitorous lady.

Makise: One: I completely take back the delusional thing, I don't care if you tell anyone else anymore. Two: I never said anything about the secrets you had.

...That is a curious topic.

Kogami: What do you mean? Your the only person who knows about the secret that wasn't with Sousuke and the statement there about my secrets prove you did it.

Makise: Light has been ranting about the secrets thing since the last meeting, which happened a few minutes after our conversation. Maybe I could tell him something but if I only had a few minutes to do it then he wouldn't have known everything in great detail during the meeting. Ask the others and they'll say the same thing.

She could be just deceiving me in order to hide her deed, but relying on others isn't her style so...

Kogami: I believe you, saying other people have a good word on it isn't something a liar would do. However, there lies a new puzzle if this is the truth. You could use your brain to figure that out...

Makise: I know, who could have said the secret to Light? Unlike other questions, this I have no clue. My best guess is it was somebody who overheard the conversation...and then told Light before the meeting. That would mean nobody in my group did it since we arrive in the same time, we even walk there together.

Kogami: And the people of Sousuke's group doesn't know about it...and now the terrible answer is here. Sometimes I wish people would at least give me a few days before ditching me. What am I, a crazy puzzle addict?

Makise: Yeah, but even someone like that shouldn't be betrayed. I don't know who the traitor could be, but we know for sure they were sticking close to you for a reason.

Kogami: A reason I would like to know as soon as possible. Then I can see who here is planning to play the killing game or surviving it.

That person clearly needs to watch out, and not just by Monokuma's creepy lightning bolt.

Makise: I'll keep an eye on my end of the deal, however, the traitor is good. They won't be caught by me alone.

Kogami: Unless they are an idiot and admit it by having a drunk rant during a drinking night. However, that plan is going to wait till we fail Plan C. For now Plan A is to see the suspicion among my group.

Makise: Good to see I'm not doing this alone. Now will you excuse me, I rather not be seen in your room this late and the last thing I need is to be part of a shipping. No way I'll ever date someone like...[Leave]

Shot down! *exploding noise*

Kogami: Time to go to bed in order to mend my terrible imagery. Hopefully, it's less terrible tomorrow.

MONOKUMA THEATER:

Monokuma: Looks like the story is coming full circle!

Monokuma: I sometimes wonder why to bother showing the first parts when they are so boring!

Monokuma: Because of suspense of course!

Monokuma: It's the variety of like that no one can live without like food, or water, or despair!

Monokuma: You suspense to keep on living this life of despair!

Monokuma: Because if you don't then your not important to me!

Monokuma: Try surviving without the thrills and chills, believe me, your missing out. You're missing out the reason to live without a boring system. A system I broke on purpose!

SAVE THE GAME?

[Yes/No]
