September 6th

Dear Diary,

Today, my brother Kai opened the mail and found a letter addressed to me, after hours of procrastinating and baking things to get my mind off of it, I finally open it.

“To Sei Satou,

You have been scouted by Hope’s Peak Academy to be this year’s Super High School Level Confectionist.

You will be placed in class 77-B with your home-room teacher being Koichi Kizakura.”

I showed Kai the letter and he told me about Hope’s Peak and the basics of it, it seems like a cool school.. orientation day is in 3 days, I might meet some new people there. Anyways I should end this entry, i’m going grocery shopping with Kai today.

I hope to meet my classmates soon.

September 9th

Dear Diary,

Today is the day of Hope’s Peak Orientation.

I went to the gym to get my uniform and my ID, key to my dormitories, map of the school and my supplies relating to my talent, Kai bought me two pink polka-dot bows for the occasion and they match my uniform so well. I went to the school’s kitchen and was so happy, they have so much cooking supplies and fancy ingredients. I got lost while heading to my homeroom class, this school’s really big..

turns out I was holding the map upside down.. woops!

I went to my dorm room and set all my stuff and decorated the space, there was a laptop and desk in the middle of the room but i already got a laptop so i won’t really need it.

After what felt like HOURS of wandering and going in circles to find Class 77-B, I found the room and walked in, everybody turned to look at me and I got a sudden jolt of embarrassment and looked away.. I went to my assigned seat and sat down, i grabbed my sketchbook from home and drew in it while the teacher was talking about Hope’s Peak. 

and then I heard someone to my left, I think they said somethin' like this..

“OHH, NICE DRAWIN’, didn’t know we had a Super High School Level Artist in our class, Name’s Nekomaru Nidai! What’s your name?”

wow. he was reallly… really loud.. i jolted and turned to look at him and aghhhh… he was looking directly at me.. I glared away and told him my name is Sei Satou and that i’m the Super High School Level Confectionist.

“Ohh… so you’re not an artist, well… my bad for assuming..”

“that’s ok.. I don’t mind at all!“

uhhh I didn’t know what else to say to him so I just went back to drawing…

After the teacher was done talking, we all went to the whiteboard and introduced ourselves.. this school is interesting.. so from the introductions, my classmates names aree..

• Peko Pekoyama
• Teruteru Hanamura
• Mikan Tsumiki
• Mahiru Koizumi
• Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu
• Gundham Tanaka
• Sonia Nevermind
• Chiaki Nanami
• Akane Owari
• Hiyoko Saionji
• Kazuichi Souda
• Nekomaru Nidai
• Ibuki Mioda
• Nagito Komaeda
• Ryota Mitarai

And myself. And then when it was my turn, i got up from my seat and went to the whieboard.

“Hi everybody.. My name is Sei Satou, i’m the Super High School Level Confectionist, I like baking sweet treats and piping and decorating cakes and other pastries; i can also make ice cream too.. That’s my personal favorite! I also sketch out ideas for my sweets and pastries, I hope to become great friends with all of you someday!“

aghhhh.. that was so cheesy..

I sat back down in my seat and then the teacher took us out of the classroom to go look around the school, I went back into the kitchen and thought about baking something for the class as a welcome gift..

also because i wanna be on their good side because i feel like that yakuza guy will tear me to shreds..

I decided on making red velvet cookies for the class and got to baking.

After they finished baking, i headed off to the classroom and walked in.

”..hi everybody, I.. I baked cookies for you all..”

As everybody got up to get a cookie from the tray, the guy from earlier commented about the cookies. 

“WOAH!!! SEI!! THIS IS REALLY GOOD!! THANKS FOR THE COOKIES!!“ 

“you’re welcome...“

After the school day, I went to the local grocery store to buy some energy drinks because I ran out after drinking all 12 of them yesterday out of anxiousness and fear of what my classmates would think of me..

I reeeeallly regret that because i was jittery and tired all day..

After i checked out the 12-pack box, I went to the exit, i bumped into someone really hard and fell backwards.

”AGH! …?”

“oh sorry about that.. OH! HI!!“ 

“uhhh... hi... well.. see ya.“

ohmygodohmygodOW

After that, I went back to the school and went to my dorm room and played games on my laptop for a bit.

I hope to see my classmates again soon.

September 10th

Dear Diary,


woah.. my birthday is a month away.. i’ll be 16 already?? woah.. Anyways I finally modded my New 3DS XL!! I procrastinated at modding it but when I did it, it was surpisingly easy! I downloaded a bunch of games i was never able to get and stayed up all night playing Pokémon Moon, Tomadachi Life & Kirby Planet Robobot.

I went to my class and sat down for homeroom, after the teacher was done talking, I mustered up the courage to go and socialize with Nanami.

“Hey.. Nanami... you have a 3DS, right..?“

“Oh! Yeah definitely! Did you wanna play with me?“ 

“Yeah! I stayed up all night playing Pokémon Moon! I was wondering if you had  one so we could do a battle...“

“Of course!“

 

Me and Chiaki played Pokémon together for a while. Then Chiaki got an idea.

 “Hey, Sei! What if we play games with the others tomorrow, i’ll bring all my consoles!!!“

“Yeah... I’d like that..!“

After a while of being in homeroom, it was time for PE. I got dressed in my sports clothes in the locker room, as i was about to put on my shoes.. I heard a loud explosion coming from the bathroom stalls..

I was shaken up from the sound and i slowly peeked into the boy’s bathroom to see what it was and.. THERE WAS AN ENTIRE FUCKING HOLE IN THE WALL?! IT LOOKED LIKE SOMEONE BLEW THE ENTIRE STALL UP!!! ..i was absolutely dumbfounded and just walked away slowly.

When we all lined up at the start of the track, the teacher explained we had to do 3 laps across the track, I didn’t really have a problem with it since i still have super-speed for some reason.

“ON YOUR MARK, GET SET.. GO!!“

I sprinted with all my might and did all the laps in less than 3 minutes.. i dropped down on the grass and took a minute to catch my breath.

“woah!! that was really cool, Sei!“

“oh.. hi! you’re Owari, right..?”

”Yep! oh by the way, thanks for those really yummy cookies yesterday! you’re a good baker!”

”thanks..”

I talked to Owari a bit, we grew a bit closer.

I went to the kitchen to bake something but Teruteru was there cooking what seems to be curry and rice.

“ah! hi, Satou!”

”hi.. Hanamura, right?”

“Yep! hey, Satou.. do you think Pekoyama has a black thong?“

…

“...what.“

“be honest.. yes or no?“

“..no, why are you even telling me this...“

I walk away and ignore his blabbering, i go get things to bake, i settle on baking an Angel Food Cake and get to baking.

After whisking the batter, pouring the mix into a tray, putting it in the oven, and piping it and adding decorations... The cake is finally done!

Carefully holding the cake, I walk to my homeroom class and open the door.

“..hi everyone, I baked this cake for you all..“

I got a cake cutter and cut exactly 15 pieces for everybody.

“AH! SEI!! you really shouldn’t have.. Thank you..“

“awhh! thank you so much, Satou! you’re so sweet..“

“WOAH! thanks, Sei!“

“...thanks“

“ah! thank you so much, Sei!“

“..You’re welcome, everybody..!”

I was really embarrased when everyone thanked me for the cake I baked..

After a few hours, Mioda suggested thay we all watch a movie, we all pitched movies and she did a draw, Mioda annouced the results and Nanami won, we all watched Wreck-It Ralph and i fell asleep around the middle of the movie, when i woke up; i was in my dorm room. 

I look forward to playing games with the others tomorrow.

October 7th

Dear Diary,

It’s been a bit since I first started attending Hope’s Peak, I’ve became friends with a lot of people in my class.. Sonia, Nanami, Nidai and Mioda are the ones i talk to SUPER often. I didn’t really expect to become friends with Nidai, at first when I met him; I thought he was a bit frightening.. but he’s actually kinda cool. I talk to Kuzuryu, Pekoyama, Koizumi and Owari often as well, Gundham and Mitarai also. I saw this guy talking to Nanami a few days back, I think his name wasss.. Hinata, i think.. I talked to him a bit with Nanami.

I don’t talk Komaeda, Saionji, Tsumiki and Souda as much though, they.. just annoy me..

Today, Nanami told me she didn’t feel like playing with the class, I was really sad that we couldn’t play, but Nanami started to cry and venting to me about how the class is divided and how they barely interact, and how our home-room teacher has been drunk lately and skipping class. I hugged her and told her that i’ll try and help her with getting the class together.

I’m not good at comforting people or hearing their problems.. I hope I did good.

Nothing of note happened after that.

I hope we can all get along.

October 8th

Dear Diary,

Today, only Koizumi, Sonia, Saionji and Fuyuhiko were present today. I just talked to Sonia and Koizumi a bit, Sonia and Koizumi are really nice.. After about 30 minutes, a teacher came into the room. 

“Hello everybody! My name is Chisa Yukizome! ”

Saionji was talking about how fun it’d be to toy with her, while Koizumi was wondering why she was here. Fuyuhiko asked where our home-room teacher was, she explained that he was drunk.

figures..

Tsumiki comes through the door and TRIPS on something and falls in a.. vulgar pose, I look away really fast, Saionji yells at Tsumiki for doing this all the time.. Tsumiki starts apologizing and crying and Chisa comforts her.  Then the teacher asks us to come with her to find the rest of our classmates.  

We all head into the Boy’s bathroom, as we walk in.. I feel some shaking from the ground.. AND THEN THE ENTIRE STALL BLOWS UP AND GUSHES WIND OUT, I GOT DUST AND DIRT ALL OVER MY HAIR.. AND MY BOW FELL OFF.. AGHHHHHH.. and then i hear a loud, hearty laugh coming towards the stall..

...??

After the smoke clears, I see Nidai come out from the stall and apologize for being late as he “needed to take a shit.”

…ok.

”OH! sorry Seii.. here’s your bow..”

he picks up my 2 bows from the floor and hands them to me.. they’re wet from the water on the floor so I put them in my pocket and start rubbing my hair to take the dirt and grime off.. I glance at the stall while Nidai was talking to me and it was in the exact state as the stall I saw in the locker rooms a few days back.. ooookkk… I noticed that Nidai was looking at me weirdly but when i looked at him, he glanced away all embarrassed..

I mean I would too if I BLEW UP A STALL IN FRONT OF LIKE 5 PEOPLE..

We all left the bathroom and went to the cafeteria, which was my suggestion because i was kinda hungry.. Sonia rings a bell and asks for a meat dish and unsurpisingly, Hanamura MAKES ANOTHER DIRTY JOKE.. eugh.. Chisa ties him up and then he.. gets all.. vulgar, and then Nidai started pulling him with the rope and he exclaimed that “he could work with this.”

…

After that, we got the remaining students and then Chisa congratulated us for doing a good job cleansing our youth and that she’ll pick us up tomorrow if she has to. The bell rings and we all grab our stuff and head out.

Nothing really of note to add since I just went back to my dorm room and played Kirby all night..

I hope to see my classmates again tomorrow.

October 12th

Dear Diary,

Nothing of note happened at the start of class, I just walked in and doodled while waiting for the teacher to arrive. During the wait, Nidai and Owari started to brawl and cause damage to the class, I just glared at them in annoyance and continued to doodle, FINALLY after hours; the teacher came and was shocked from how much damage Nidai and Owari caused, Nanami and Mitarai left the class shortly after, Chisa left to check on them.. i assume.

After what felt like hours of waiting, Chiaki and Mitarai came back and annouced that they would host a game night, Nanami asks Souda to build a TV for the occasion; I still have some cartridges from last time she wanted to host one so i gave her the cartridges and we started to play. Chisa came a few minutes later and joined the fun, we were all playing and then Hanamura came with a big pot of a soup and everyone pauses to eat. We all thank Hanamura and i have a little bit of it, my eyes water with delight while eating it. Hanamura starts talking about how one of the vials was missing and then Saionji reveals that she spiked it into the soup, Hanamura then reveals it’s a aphrodisiac.

I stared at both Hanamura and Saionji in shock; Suddenly, everyone started to..

…

I just zoned out looking at my plate for a while, after like.. 3 minutes, I had enough and left to go to my dorm room, as I tried to leave, Nidai pulled on my leg and tugged on my leg.

”wait.. I-“

”… Nidai.. let go.. stop.”

I try my best to make him let go of my leg without hurting him.

I shut and locked the door of my dorm room and doodled in my sketchbook to distract myself from what was happening in the classroom. 

…

I stayed there for the rest of the day.

October 31st

Dear Diary,

Today is my birthday, I was in my dorm room asleep and then i heard a knock on the door, I got dressed and opened the door to see Nidai leading me to the classroom while i was half-asleep, Nidai flicked the switch and then the entire class yelled out “SURPISE!!” and then singed that one Happy Birthday jingle to me, Sonia gestured me to sit down at the table and told me to blow the candle on my cake and make a wish.

…

I made my wish and then Nanami walked towards me and gave me a gift.

”Here, Sei.. this is a gift, from all of us.”

..I open the box and find a box of various bows and hair-clips, a box of glitter pens, a set of little custom-made expression cards and a note, I folded the note open; I see various messages from my classmates wishing me happy birthday in their own unique ways, and i flip the note back and read the message that Chisa wrote.

” Dear Sei, 

I hope you have a happy birthday, I know it’s been hard connecting with your classmates and talking to them and I appreciate you trying your hardest to talk to the others, each of you hold a special place in my heart and i wish the very best for you and all of your classmates.

Love, Chisa Yukizome. :) “

… 

I start to tear up and hug Chisa and the others. 

“..Thank you, guys.. All of you..”

I put on the new bows and hair-clips and look at myself with my pocket mirror; My face lights up with excitement and I squeal a little and rock in my chair slightly. I try on my expression cards and they look really good. 

We all had fun and celebrated the whole day.

November 1st

Today, Kuzuryu’s sister was found dead.

I didn’t know her personally but I hope she’s in peace.. or somethin’.. I don’t know how to pay respects to the dead..

I was too scared to talk to him that day so I just doodled in class most of the day.

Nothing happened much that day, Nidai’s been hanging out with me more often since yesterday.

I dunno what I hope for tomorrow but I hope Kuzuryu is okay.

November 5th

Koizumi’s friend was found dead today.. 

What is going on…???

I comforted Koizumi and told her everythin would be okay, and I hung out with Nidai for a while. 

My diary entries are getting shorter.. I should write more, but I’ve been a bit drained these past few days..

I hope Koizumi and Kuzuryu are ok.

November 12th

Dear Diary,

Today, Chisa explained how we’ll be having exams in a little while, I don't think i’ve ever done a test before so this might be fun.. maybe?.. Everybody is still all down about the two deaths that happened this week.. Komaeda pitches an idea to postpone the exams until our minds have cleared; Chisa knows that everybody is all down but she says that she is unable to postpone the exams..

I went to my room after class and jussst played games for a bit. I think i hanged out with Sonia for a while after that annndd yeah i think that’s it.

Hope I don’t fail the exam..

November 13th

Dear Diary,

ok so Komaeda got suspended to absolutely nobody’s surpise but..

We found out that Chisa is being sent to the reserve course.

…

She’ll be back eventually but still.. i’ll miss her.

I hung out with Nidai at the park today, we both didn’t really say a word to eachother after what happened with Chisa and Komaeda. I showed him how to play Smash Bros and he got the hang of it.

It’s like 12 PM right now, I should probably end this entry and sleep.

November 14th

Dear Diary,

Sometimes, when I’m all alone in my dorm room; I think about what Dad said.

”You are a impediment to the plan, a failure.”

…sometimes I ask myself if he was really right.. that I was a failure..

I went to class and doodled for a while; I tried my best to hold my tears in, but I couldn’t hold them in any longer and i started to cry; I put my head down and started sobbing quietly, over time, some of my classmates heard and tried to comfort me. My mind was too cluttered to even remember who came up to me. Everything was all just so overwhelming. 

nothing I do matters.

nothing I become will matter.

nothing I am will matter.

I don’t matter.

My sense of time became a blur and I shut myself in my dorm-room after class ended, I think Nidai came a little while and knocked on my door but i was too zoned out to hear it.

I’m worthless.

Less than worthless.

I’m nothing. nothing at all.

Nobody will mourn me if i dissappear.

…

“Sei.. are you ok..?”

”Open the door, Sei.”

”Please.. just talk to me..”

”Just say anything.. please.”

”…”

”…”

“Open the door..”

”…”

I heard him walking away a few minutes later, I scratched the door in guilt and frustration because I didn’t answer his pleas to talk to me.

I wish I could just die.

I wish i could just die.

I wish I would just die.

I wish..

…

November 16th

I didnt attend class today. I was too tired and engulfed in a sea of emotions and thoughts to even think about going to class; Nidai knocked on the door again.

”…please.. just open the door..”

I hesitated a bit but the guilt of making him leave again was too much to bear so I got up and opened the door.

”..! You opened the door! Sei, are you okay?”

Nidai lunges towards me and hugs me tightly. My eyes start to water again as I hug him back and bury my face into his chest; I struggle to form words and just incomprehensibly mutter out random nosies and cry, my head starts to clear and I muster up a few words.

“…I-I’m sorry..”

“I-I’m sorry for not opening the door yesterday..”

”It’s ok! It’s totally ok! I’m just glad you opened it right now! Don’t ever scare me like that again.. please.. You’re.. Yo-You’re my best friend! I don’t know what I’d do if something bad happened to you.. Please, Sei, just talk to me! I won’t get mad or hate you or anything! Just tell me! please..”

…

“I-I keep remembering things that.. that my dad said to me… he-he called me a faliure to his plan.. he- and he shot himself when.. when he was…”

…

“…I-I can’t forgive myself for the things I’ve done, Nidai. I-“

“…I..”

”…”

“It’s okay.. I-It’s okay..”

..?

“I’m here for you.”

…

 

”Thank you.. thank you thank you thank you thank you, Nidai..”

He lets go of me and gestures me to come along with him.

”Come on.. They’re worried about you too, ya’ know..”

I follow Nidai to the classroom and Chisa warmly smiles at me.

“Hi Sei, are you feeling better..?”

”…”

I nod my head.

Everybody else rushed to ask me what happened and if I was ok, nothing of note happened after that.

I’m tired so I’ll end the entry here.

November 31st

Dear Diary,

I got a call from Teki today, It’s been a few months since we talked; I told her about all my classmates and how school’s been going.

“Hey, Sei.. I don’t know what’s going on at your school, but Miley said to be wary..”

”Uh.. what..?”

”I dunno.. It’s probably because of those murders that happened a few weeks back.”

”Oh.. That’s okay, I got everything under control!”

”Alright, see ya’ soon, Sei!”

”Bye, Teki!”

Wary. I don’t understand why Miley wants me to feel that way.. Is something going to happen..? She wouldn’t keep something important like that from me though… 

I didn’t really know what else to do so I just played games on my laptop for the day.

I heard it might snow soon.. that’d be nice.

December 2nd

It started snowing.. I hung out with Nidai again today, I think after what happened a few days back; He’s just been hanging out with me more.. I don’t mind it though, he’s really nice. 

Is it weird to eat ice cream when it’s cold.

Probably.

December 12th

Dear Diary,

I’m very confused right now.

I was hanging out with Nidai in the snow as usual; but then he kept glancing at me weird.

He handed me a box of chocolates and confessed to me; I examined the box and I looked back at him; His face was all red.

He ran away really fast; I didn’t get to say anything to him, I just stood there in the snow for a solid 30 minutes in confusion.

I put the box in one of my drawers, I don’t really know what to do with it.

I don’t really understand stuff like this; I usually don’t feel stuff like this at all.

Janurary 23rd

Dear Diary,

 After months of our homeroom teacher, Chisa being in the Reserve Course is finally returning. Nanami decided to throw a party for the occasion, everybody got started decorating and I was tasked on baking cupcakes for the party. I went to the kitchen and started baking, After a while of mixing, baking, piping and decorating; The cupcakes were finally ready to eat and we all waiting for Chisa to arrive. When the door opened, All of us tugged on our party poppers and shot a ton of glitter into the air. Everybody was all talking and having fun and I started to zone out a bit and fidget around with the keychains on my bag. I don’t really recall what happened after that soo I’ll just end the entry here.

Janurary 27th

Dear.. Diary,

…

I can’t keep going on like this; I’ve been having frequent nightmares about what happened in the Room Of Lies that day..

I’ve been waking up in the middle of the night for the past 3 weeks now and I just can’t take it anymore. No matter what I do, where I go, how much I change.. It still haunts me. …

I opened my drawer and took a container of pills I stole from the pharmacy earlier today; My senses grew distant as I thought about my classmates.

I’m so sorry everybody…

I’m..

I..

I woke up in the middle of the night laying in the medical bay; I stared at the ceiling in defeat.

why did i think that would work. I’m so stupid... stupid stupid..

i noticed that Nidai was sleeping in a chair nearby from my bed.

…

He.. was.. holding my diary..

…

I discreetly swiped it from his hand without waking him up.. It’s a bit hard since the book is fluffy and has a ton of stickers on it..

I got up and snuck back to my dorm room, making sure I didn’t make a sound; I got into bed and slept a while later.

Chapter Text

…?

I frantically check my bag and room to search for my diary, but it’s nowhere to be found. My door was slightly open when I woke up today, so somebody must have stolen it while i was asleep.. 

We’re moving to a new section of Hope’s Peak; but I don’t care about that.. 

I just want to know who has it. my diary.

I walk up to every single one of my classmates to ask if they have it; to my shock, nobody has it..

..I hate this fucking school.

Still can’t find it. 

I still. can’t. FIND. IT.

…

What do I even do..?

With no other options or things to do today, I just went to sleep and hoped for the best.

not here not here not here not here not here not here not here not here not here.

FUCK.

 
I swear to god when I find the bastard that stole my diary.. I’m going to.. to..

…

I skipped homeroom today.

I don’t wanna be in that room.

My head hurts so bad; I tried baking to clear my head but Hanamura kept pestering me about sex and stuff so I just tuned him out.

The last person I saw with my notebook was Nidai, but I don’t want to talk to him. I know he read what was in there. He hasn’t talked to me for weeks.

I don’t think anybody has talked to me actually except Hanamura.. Am i really that forgettable..? Did Nidai show them what was in there? Does everybody hate me now?

 There’s riots going on outside the school building. what is going on. what is this.

Nidai keeps glancing at me weird, does he hate me? 

Feburary 12th.

Dear Diary,

Today, I finally got my diary after days of not having it, Nidai showed up to my dorm room today and gave it back to me. He apologized to me a lot.. I don’t know what to feel about this; He hung out with me for the rest of the day. He tried to bake an apology cake but burnt it really bad.. I didn't even know he could bake.

Nanami told us about this secret entrance in one of the statues, Komaeda warns us that it’s a suicide mission but the entire class ignores him. As we all head to the entrance that Nanami was talking about; A group of angry Reverse Course students block off the entrance, Nidai and Tanaka help out by holding them off as we all descend down.

I don’t trust this place. I have a bad feeling about this. 

We all continue walking down and Tsumiki comes rushing down with us a while later, Kuzuryu asks where Nanami is; Mikan says that she hurt her ankle. Hanamura says that Komaeda should’ve been with her, the wall opens near us and Tanaka and Nidai walk through; We continue walking and.. enter this trial room of sorts..?

The screens all around the room turn on and a little pixel animation that says Nanami will be “punished” is shown; we all see a lady with pigtails and hairclips, she talks about some bullshit that I don’t care for. Nanami pops up on the screen a bit later with her running into this maze of sorts as she clutches her bleeding arm.

I stare at the screen in complete disbelief.

 
Everybody starts crying and saying they can’t move. Their eyes.. 

is.. is this some kind of mind control..?

…

no.

no. 
no. I have to save her.

and them.

but i.. can’t move..

i… 

i..

no.

no. i’m not giving in.

this stupid bastard won’t get in my head

I take something hard enough from my bag and throw it at one of the screens with all my might.

”you.. STUPID BASTARDDD!! I’LL KILL YOU! I’LL KILL YOUI’LL KILL YOUI’LL KILL YOUI’LL KILL YOUI’LL KILL YOUI’LL KILL YOU!!!”

I scream at her with all my pent-up rage and anguish, I toss and toss more things but the screens won’t break.. not even one bit..

…Nanami opens an exit door and gets impaled by a spike; She then falls over and then gets impaled by a bed of spikes, A silhouette of her appears on the screen saying “GAME OVER” appears.

….this..this is disgusting.…sick.. this.. BITCH.. 

..i’ll kill whoever did this..whoever was a part of this.. whoever.. whatever.. i’ll kill them.. all of them.. these STUPID BASTARDS..

…I turn to look at my classmates; All of them are breaking down crying and smiling, their eyes mixed with the taste of despair.

 

“Guys.. Guys! Please! We have to.. we have to..”

…

I try to get everyone’s attention but then Nidai pushes me to the floor with all his might.

”..Ow! What the heck.. Stop! We have t-“

”Oh, I’m sorry! Here… does THIS make you feel better?”

He kicks me in the face, I let go on his leg and make him fall to the floor, hitting his head hard.

 

”WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?? STOP!!”

”Ah.. so that’s how it is, huh? I know you used to be a part of ASU-NARO.. y’know? I know you’re not a real human, you’re just a disgusting doll, incapable of even thinking for yourself; You were never my friend and I never loved you, you’re just a disgusting heap of porcelain and metal. You don’t matter to me or anyone at all.”

“…”

I’ll kill her. I swear to it. I’ll make her pay. I’ll kill her. I don’t care what it takes. I’ll kill her. I’ll kill her. I’ll kill her..

I..

I.. will.

….

I cried in my room; I cried and cried and cried. My face was all red and my vision was blurry. I couldn’t think straight. Nanami. She’s dead. she’s dead.. And Everyone.. they.. they hate me. I’m a waste of a person. I’m less than nothing. I couldn’t even do anything to help Nanami and the others. It should’ve been me.

It should’ve been..

Dear Diary,

I’m pathetic.

Absolutely pathetic.

I’ve been in my room for the past 3 weeks, doing nothing but just crying and getting painful visits from the others.

They just won’t stop. They won’t stop hurting me. I have bruises everywhere on my face and body from them kicking me and harming me. I can’t even think straight without being in pain.

I look at the box of chocolates in my drawer from time to time. It’s the only thing they haven’t broken or stolen from me besides my diary.

Dear Diary,

We were all called to home-room.

There’s a flower where Nanami used to sit. 

...

I don’t even bother to listen to what Chisa says anymore, I know she’s one of them now; A red light emits in the classroom.

I start to feel myself reverting back to the horrible persom I used to be again, as my sense of self and emotions go along with it.

Bastards. All of them.

Why did I think I could make friends..?

Why did I think I do anything right..

Dear Diary,

I found my old bandana with black shirt and shorts I used to wear; I put them on and grabbed some new expression cards I made. I exited my dorm room and greeted my fellow classmates outside. Nidai put his hand on my shoulder

“Ay, Sei! You finally joined us! Welcome to the team!“

I glance at him with a cold expression and slap his hand off my shoulder, he winces and lets go.

”Huh? You think we’re all buddy-buddy, eh? Don’t test your luck.. I still remember the things you and the others did to me.”

”..You’re still bitter about that, grow up..”

“And besides, Don’t call me that, Bastard.. Call me.. Rio Ranger, The Dress-Up Doll.“

I’m baffled they think I still like them! Who do they think they are? I fuckin’ hate them!

They could die for all I care! ..They let her die in the first place.

I’ll never forgive them, they can rot.

They’re disgusting vermin.

The only reason I’m with them is because they’d kill me if I left their team; I don’t care for them.

Dear Diary,

That bastard kissed me.

We were bombing some buildings and he grabbed me and kissed me on the cheek; he kept talking all mushy and how he loved me in the name of despair.

“I know you kept those chocolates I gave ya! I saw them in your room a while back.. I’m hurt.. You know you’re supposed to eat them, yknow? Just letting them rot in your room… do you hate me or somethin’?”

”..SHUT UP! DIE!”

I grabbed some nearby rubble, bashing his head in with a rock.

He survived unfortunately; Tsumiki treated him.

I’m growing tired of this class.

Why am I even with them? I should be with the others; Teki would love my new look.

Some guy named Izuru joined our team afta’.. To be honest, I hate that bastard.. 
He’s all creepy and analytical..

He told us to get into these weird statis pods so that we can override our minds and become Junko Enoshima.. Sure! What’s life if we don’t take a few risks here n’ there, right?

“Let’s get on with it, Bastards!!“

Chapter Text

Today is the day..

The day I attend Hope’s Peak Academy, a prestigious school filled with the most talented students across Japan.

It recruits top students from every single field of work imaginable.. to shape Hope.. and I am going to be a part of it.

There are only two requirements to attend this school.

• You need to currently be a high school student.

• You need to be the very best at what you do.

There aren’t any entrance exams at this school, the only way to enter is if they scout you and send you an invitation.

The students of this school are titled as “Super High School Level” ..

But even though I’m coming to the school i’ve dreamed of my whole life, I feel a sense of uneasiness.. That is to be expected of course, anyways.. I should introduce myself!

My name is Sei Satou, I’ve been scouted by the school to enter as the Super High School Level Confectionist.. I decorate cakes and other pastries for weddings and other special ocassions, I can also make any other sweet treat; but that doesn’t really pertain to that title much..

I’ve always wanted to be here.. and for that reason alone…

I.. I..

What is wrong with me..

Why am I acting like this.

I’m not special in any way.

I just make sweets.

What good does that do..

No matter what I do, I’ll still be a..

a…

huh..?

what..?

…

..a door?

…?

..I need to go

..i need to hurry..

…

I open the door and head inside, a white light blinds me as I see a bunch of people varying in height, weight and styles already inside the room.

 

“…”

”Woah!”

“Who goes there?”

”..Hey, wait..!”

“Uhm- are you okay? You look really pale..”

“What’s..”

“Hey, could you be.. You’re also a freshman at this school, right?”

“..Ah, yeah..!”

“So I was correct.. We’re all freshman here..”

 

..?

These are the people who were scouted, and got to be in Hope’s Peak..?

“I assume.. freshman like us have been gathered here.. in this classroom.”

…

I take a step into the classroom and close the door behind me, I sat in an open seat in the front of the class.

”Ah, I love your outfit! You look so pretty!!” A girl near me said, her hair was blond and her eyes glistened sincerely

”..T-thank you..”

…actually.. what am i wearing..?? this isn’t what I was wearing when I got here..

I’m getting offtopic.. what was that earlier..?? There was a door and just.. empty space.. like i was in a void.

As i was pondering about how I came to be here, a man with an intense and cold stare with prestige square glasses spoke up with a piercing tone.

”why.. just why are we here in this class room..? Nobody said anything about coming here, so.. Is this like, an entrance ceremony or homeroom..? Actually, we were just about to discuss the matter.”

”…”

I kept silent in worry I would say something wrong, as the person talking right now gave me the chills.

”Well.. since you’re the last person here, let’s start the discussion.”

“Eh, this is everyone? How do you know..?”

A girl with odd multi-colored hair and hand warmers with prominent holes in them questioned.

“..There’s seventeen desks, and this person here is the seventeenth student.. It’s obvious if you even bother to think about it!” The man with glasses answered with a grin.

“And just what are we going to talk about..? The reason we’re all here in this classroom?” A small boy with weirdly shaped hair wondered.

“First, I need to confirm something.. Out of everyone here.. Is there anyone who remembers how they came to this classroom..?”

..! 

We all looked at eachother, a surpised face appeared on everyone’s face.. not anyone here knows..

…

”So before you realized it, you were in this classroom.. then everyome here is in the same predicament.. No matter how you look at it, it’s unnatural.. Even you stupid-looking ones would agree, right?”

”I-It sure is strange.. Nobody actually remembers how they came here.. ..Hey! What do you mean, “stupid-looking”!?” A girl with rosy red hair and freckles chimed in.

“The moment you set foot on campus, you felt.. a strange dizziness, and now you’re here and you don’t know why.. That is what I experienced before I arrived here. Am I correct in assuming that’s true of all of you..?” The man with glasses glared at us waiting for a response to his question

..As much as I want to stay silent, I try to answer his question. But suddenly, a man with a green tie answered.

”Yeah.. That happened to me too.. but..”

”EH?! That dizziness wasn’t just me?? Everyone felt the same dizziness.” The boy from earlier with the weird hair shouted loudly, halting him from speaking.

“E-even if it’s just a coincidence.. it feels too good to be true..” A girl with uneven deep violet hair and bandages stuttered.

”So you’re saying it’s not just a coincidence, then.” The man with glasses smirked in satisfaction

”Eh..?” The girl from earlier who complimented me made a noise in confusion.

”Meaning.. we can only speculate who’s responsible for this strange phenomenon.” The man concluded.

I see everyone pondering.. this.. this is really really weird.. this reminds me of- 

Suddenly, A tall, burly man who hollered from behind me; I jolted a little with shock. “HAH! I don’t know what you’re so worried about, but that doesn’t sound like a huge deal..” 

..He looks a bit familiar.. I swear I’ve seen him.. somewhere.

”What do you mean..”  A guy with pink hair and beanie asked confusingly.

”..I mean it’s a minor problem.. Instead of trying to figure out why we’re here, we should try to figure out why we can’t leave..” The man continued.

”Huh? Whaddaya mean we can’t leave?” A girl with brown hair asked.

“EH?? S-seriously!?” the boy with weird hair screeched again.

He went to the door and tried to open it, but it wouldn’t budge.

”I-It won’t open! I can’t open it!” 

”..Huh.. why!?” 

“A little while after i got here, I tried to leave to go take a shit…” The man blurted out. But that door wouldn’t budge at all!”

..Nah, I would’ve remembered knowing someone as loud as him.

 

“Hey.. Hey.. what’s going on?”

“Even with all my might, I couldn’t open it! It’d be absolutely impossible for all of you…”

 

..I’m kinda craving ice cream right now.

“Eh? What do you mean you couldn’t open it? Why? That’s not possible!” A little girl with an orange and green kimono whined.

”S-She’s right! It’s impossible! Because.. when I went through the door, It opened normally.. it wasn’t locked at all!” The man from earlier with the green tie and ahoge yelled out.

 

“Though I don’t understand what forces are at work here.. There is no denying that we have been locked inside this classrooom.” A girl with red, sharp eyes and a weapon behind her back commented.

“…So that’s that, eh..? Guess we really are.. locked in here.” I calmly spoke.

 

”Wh-what do you mean..?” The man with the tie dumbfoundedly said.

 

”M-Maybe we’re getting mixed up.. in something dangerous..?” The man with pink hair and beanie commented.

 

”Or perhaps.. Doesn’t this make more sense to think that this is the entrance exam..?” A thin, ghostly pale boy with white hair said.

 

“The entrance exam? You mean, Hope’s Peak Academy’s?” The man with the tie inquired.

“But.. according to Hope’s Peak Academy, no such entrance exam exists.” The girl with the blond hair and bow observed.

 

”They may say that publicly, but it’s possible that this is actually a special entrance exam..?” The man with the white hair pondered.

 

”Ah, you’re wrong. This is not an entrance exam” A mysterious soft-spoken voice muttered somewhere in the room.

…!

”What was that just now?” The man with glasses glanced around the room, looking for the source.

”Hey, fatass.. Why’d you make that cutesy voice all of a sudden?” A boy with a baby face and suit vulgarly shouted.

”I won’t dispute that blunt remark about my weight, but that voice you heard was not mine..” the man with glasses bluntly said.

 

”..Huh? Then.. whose is it?” The woman with brown hair exclaimed.

”Um, It’s actually mine..!” The voice spoke again.

”WHO’S THERE!? WHERE ARE YOU!?” The big man with the chain shackled around his neck shouted, I covered my ears.

 

”It sounds like it came from behind the teacher’s desk..” A girl with pastel pink hair and a hairpin resembling a Galaga sprite chimed in

“..All right! I see everyone has arrived! Let’s begin!” The voice from earlier exclaimed.

 

Suddenly, A little toy rabbit with a pretty, frilly skirt popped out of the teacher’s desk with a heart-shaped wand. 

“What..is that..?” Someone asked.

“Um.. it looks like a stuffed animal..” someone responded

 

”That’s right, I am a squeezably soft stuffed animal! Magical Miracle Girl ★ Usami.. AKA.. Usami! I may not look like it, but I am your squeezeably soft teacher! Nice to meet you all!” “Usami“ answered.

 

“H-Huh? Am I hallucinating? Am I the only one who’s seeing this?“ The boy with the chef hat muttered.

“Nah, I see it too..“ The guy with the pink hair and beanie replied.

 

“What’s with this talkin’ Chihuahua!?“ The girl with the brown hair yelled out

“Eh?! That’s a chihuahua!?“ The girl with the hand warmers and piercings said.

“..Does everybody here know what a rabbit is? It’s a lovable animal that’s very fluffy and soft. That’s what i am!“ Usami stated.

“h-HOLD ON! Let me process this first!“ The boy with the chef hat shouted out.

“Okie-dokie!“ Usami beamed.

 

..why’s everyone all shocked?

“I’m the leader of this school trip!“ Usami beamed, that grabbed my attention.

 

“School trip..? To where.. What..?“ I trembled.

 

“A large group of students go on a chaperoned trip with a lead teacher! It’s the biggest event of the school year!“ Usami answered.

 

“..Huh. Honestly I.. kinda don’t know what to say to that..“ I muttered awkwardly.

 

“Anyways! Let’s depart to the school trip!“ Usami shouted in glee.

 

With the wave of a wand, Usami made the classroom open like a box; A flash of white gleamed in our faces as our eyes adjusted to the light, a tropical scene was shown; The waves crashing into the sand, the slight heat from the sun making my face warm and the smell of salt and plants overwhelmed my senses. 

“Wha..?“

This... This is..

What the heck..?

“..Uhm.. Whaaaaaat..?“

I blurted out, I looked around and felt the sand to see if this was really happening; the little pebbles fall and sink out of the gaps of my fingers. 
 
Oh.

I hear everyone around me stammer in disbelief, I however am not that phased; In the 3 years I was in ASU-NARO, I was sorta used to this kinda nonsensical stuff.

“Everyone! Please calm down, there is no reason to panic! Seeee? Look around!!“ Usami reassured.

...I walked down to the waves and just played in the sand a bit. Slightly looking back to listen to the others yell out in confusion.

I overheard some stuff here and there, but.. one thing caught my attention.

“Bloody business, like causing violence or inflicting pain, is a big no-no on this island!“ Usami muttered worriedly.

…

Huh?

 ???

Dear Diary, 

Usami gave me a diary to journal and stuff, she said it would “bring hope“ or something. She’ll check it periodically “just in case.“

I dunno what that means.

I got this hand-book from her and apparently we all have to “connect“ with eachother.. I was planning on just looking at everyone’s student profiles but i’d have ti actually talk to them. 

do I really have to..? some of these people look like they could tear me apart..

...Okay. Honestly I need new friends anyway, The only people I talk to is Kai ans maybe Q-taro sometimes.. He still dislikes me after.. yknow.

I used the map as a guide and walked to the hotel, I was already in my dorm so it was just straight ahead. It showed who was there. I’ll go meet them and write later.

---

 

“..Hello.“ I sheepishly said.

“Ah! Hello! What’s your name?“ 

“.. Sei Satou, I’m the Super High School Level Confectionist. I bake cakes and other treats for special events, like weddings and such..“

“Ah! That’s a cute name! My name is Mahiru Koizumi! I’m the Super High School Level Photographer..“

“..ah.. That’s cool.. I’m sorry.. I don’t really know what else to say.“

“..That’s okay, this situation is kinda alot to take in, i mean.. we were supposed to be in Hope’s Peak.. And now we’re here..“

“..Yeah..“

“..Well, It was nice meeting you.. Bye, Koizumi..“

“Ah! See you later, Sei!“

 

...

 

“..What do you want.“

“Nothing.. I just wanted to-“

“I’m not being all buddy-buddy with any of you, just so ya know..“

“..Are you usually this annoyingly stubborn? I just wanted to know your name..“

“..Hmph.. My name’s Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu. Super High School Level Yakuza.“

“..was that so hard..?“

“..Shut up, bastard!“

“..bitch.“

I walk away in annoyance.

man.. some of the people here.. suck.

Alright.. who’s the next person here..?

..Oh! It’s that.. guy from earlier. The one that looked familar.

“..Hello.“

“..Hm? AH! You.. want to introduce yourself, huh? My name.. is NEKOMARU NIDAI! The Super High School Level Team Manager!“

“..Have we met before? You look familar.”

”..No, I don't think so.. Maybe you’re thinking of a different person.”

”Oh, well.. I’m Se-“

“..Hey! You’re speaking too softly.. Let your voice from the bottom of your stomach!!“

“Uh.. O-okay?.. I’m Sei Satou.. I’m the-“

“Nooo..! You can be louder than that..!“

“..I’M.. I’M SEI SATOU! PLEASED TO MEET YOU!“

...What am I even doing.

“I’M NEKOMARU NIDAI!! Don’t forget it, even if you go to hell! I’M THE SUPER HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL TEAM MANAGER! NEKOMARU NIDAI!!“ 

“..Okay. I’m.. The Super High School Level Confectionist..“

“..Confectionist?“

“I bake and decorate cakes and other stuff.. like for weddings and other big events.“

“Ah! That’s a fun talent to have, I enjoy eating sweets from time to time.. Well.. Hope to talk to you again soon!“

“...You too.“

...?

That was weird. I swear I knew him.. His name, voice and.. everything about him.. I remember it very faintly..

I feel drained.. I.. I don’t think I wanna talk to anyone else right now..

I headed back to my dormroom and just laid there, I think after a few hours; the screen in my room turned on and Usami announced that everyone got “all the hope fragments” and to gather at the beach. I dragged myself out of bed and headed off to the beach; To my surpise, everyone was already at the beach.. I was the last one here.. eh.. I don’t really care.

”..You’re the last to arrive.. What are you dilly-dallying for..?” The man with glasses muttered frustratedly.

“..Sorry, I was a bit tired..” I grumbled.

“… Ah, That’s understanable.”

“Well.. Anyways, I need to tell you all something.. have you all been to the park across the bridge? It reminded me of a story.. There’s an island in the Pacific Ocean, a beautiful island paradise where summer never ends.. It consists of a central island surrounded by five different islands, it is also said that five holy animals symbolize each of those surrounding islands..” The man with glasses pondered. 

 

”That island’s name is.. Jabberwock Island.” The man with glasses concluded.

 

“..Still, there’s something on my mind, in fact.. According to what I’ve heard, Jabberwock Island is already…” The man with glasses hesitated.

“..Nevermind..” The man with glasses muttered.

 

”Hold it right there! That’s a rather incomplete story you’ve told us..” Nidai scolded.

 

“Why does it matter what this island is called..? We all still have to live here together.” I noted.

Everyone all started going off about how the island is fun and stuff, I mean.. I don’t hate it here.. but I’d rather like.. to not be all forced into talking with everyone; Everyone shifted the topic to means of escape and the guy with the weird tie proposed to make a raft.

With all 17 of us..? no way.. that’d have to be one big raft. and.. also it’d be gross too.

Usami popped up a bit after and told everyone not to damage the island; as per school-trip rules, she then proposed a motive for everyone to get along.. Each of us got swimming bags, I opened mine and it had a pink shirt with little strawberries on it and shorts with a frosting pattern.

My eyes lit up with joy, I don’t think I’ve ever went swimming but this swimsuit is really pretty so I might try it.

I walk over to my dorm-room to change, I put on the swimsuit and change up my hairclips a bit to suit the theme. I walked out back to the beach, everyone’s outfits were.. uhm.. kinda weird.

”Usami.. uhm- t-thank you..” I sheepishly muttered.

 

“You’re very welcome, Sei! Now, go have fun with your classmates!” Usami yelped out.

I walked to the shore, the slightly cold water hitting my feet; I shiver a bit in excitement, fear and the fact that the water was cold. I hesitantly walk into the water, Nidai grabs my hand and helps me walk into the water.

”Is this your first time being in water..? you seem a bit frightened..” Nidai wondered.

”Y-Yeah.. Also the water’s a bit cold.” I muttered.

”GAHAHA! Nonsense!! It’s the right tempature to me!” Nidai giggled.

…huh.

“Come on! Don’t be frightened!!” Nidai bellowed as he splashed some water in my face; I shivered as I splashed some water in his face back.

 

”..Ahaha..!” I let out a little giggle; My eyes glistened with delight and I smiled gleefully, like a little baby.

I.. I don’t think I’ve had this much fun in.. in my whole life.. All my life, I’ve been tasked to kill others.. My own father.. He cared for the company more than me.. and then he died.. he.. and then I was adopted into the Satou family, and I met.. Kai.. And then.. and- I-I was killed. The life left my eyes and then- I was rebuilt.. as a doll by Safalin and.. Gashu.. stripped of what made me human.. my positive emotions. I could not laugh, smile, feel.. I was a hollow husk of negative emotions, I envyed humans.. I really did.. And I did horrible things, I stole the clothes of the dead; to feel, to.. atleast have what I couldn’t.. And then.. But now.. I feel.. I-

…?

The entire island became dark, I glared up and.. the vibrant blue, clear sky I was used to seeing suddenly became dark, gloomy snd cloudy.

 

“Uh… Usaammi…???” I yelped worriedly; waiting for a response.

 

“Wha..whawhawhawha.. HUHH?? What is this?!” Usami screeched; I froze in fear.

As everyone began to panic, I heard a click coming from one of the monitors; I tilted my head in confusion.

 

”Ahh! Ahh.. Mike check! Mike check! Ahh.. Ahh.. Can you hear me..? Puhuhuhu! You’re surprised! Totally surprised! …Riiiiiighht..? Now then, sorry for keeping you waiting so long.. Let’s toss this meaningless entertainment behind.. Now for the main attraction! You guys better head to Jabberwock Park..!” An annoying, almost taunting voice snarkly bragged.

..what?

All of us head to Jabberwock Park, I fidget with my fingers nervously; Usami yells out to the mysterious voice from earlier to show itself, Suddenly an annoying, disgusting laugh echos through the park.

“Upupupu! Ahahahaha!” 

In an instant, a black and white bear appeared looming over the statue in the park.

“Why hello there! Thanks for waiting, everyone! Ahem, now that I have made my dashing appearance, the first thing I need to say is...”

I tuned out the complete and utter nonsense this stupid, dumb toy is spouting; As I was angrily staring at the that stupid waste of junk, it suddenly attacked Usami and broke her wand; It didn’t stop there, as it twisted and altered her to look like it. 

I was really annoyed that I didn’t really listen to what it said, but something it said.. it..

”Let’s begin our killing school trip! Naturally, you guys are the contestants!”

..what. I stared at “Monokuma” in absolute horror. This.. This..

Ahah.. and to think, I thought I could start anew; To let go of my ways as a floormaster and as an assasian.. But this.. I.. I’ll never be able to escape.. Can I..? 

This must be some sick punishment for what I’ve done, this must be my own personal hell. It must be.. It..

I… 

I start to hyperventilate, the thought of witnessing death and suffering again made me panic. I don’t. I can’t. I can’t escape.. I can’t breathe. I-

 

“..Ahh… Hah… I..”

I need to.. I need to leave.. I need to..

Suddenly, these giant robots came forth; Monokuma activated something and then the robot revealed a contraption with machine guns, the guns started firing; tearing Usami apart. One of the bullets grazed my cheek.

“Ahh…ha..hah…”

I incomprehensibly muttered in shock.

My airways tightened and I started to hyperventilate again; everything suddenly became all blurry and my eyes started to water. The words that Gashu said to me started echoing in my head..

“You are an impediment to the plan, a failure.”

“You are an impediment to the plan, a failure.”

I… Stop.. Please…

Please…

I collapsed on the floor shortly after.

Chapter Text

A scene of red and white enters my view as I witness a man with a gaping hole in his abdomen; The blood from his wound seeps into the ground, staining it.

The smell is absolutely repulsive, the earthy, metallic scent drives my senses haywire.

I repress the urge to vomit.

I glance at the door and see him; The man in a brown suit holds a gun at me and fires.

I hear a piercing sound, like glass exploding. I start shaking uncontrollably.

”A gun.. why?”

My eyes grow heavy, I weep and weep as I beg my father to fix me, but my relentless cries for help go ignored.

A swift kick hits my face and the world goes black.

..?

..My eyes start to focus and I’m met with the sight of.. the girl with uneven purple hair..

“A-Ah! You’re awake..! Uhm.. please be careful, I bandaged your head up.. It was bleeding.. really bad.. I don’t think we-we’ve been introduced.. what’s your name..”

”R- Sei Satou… Super.. Super High School Level Confect.. tionist..”

“Ah! M-My name is Mikan Tsumiki… Super High School Level Nurse..”

“…nice.. uhm- c-can I go..? if that’s ok..”

“O-Oh! Of course.. jus-just be careful.”

 

I get up and walk over to the door, trying my best not to do anything that’ll make my head start hurting; I head to the beach and sit near the shore, I take in the air around me, the water slowly brushing against my feet and the rays of sunlight warming my face up.

Killing Game..

I stare at the sand with a sullen gaze; I draw a little face with a small rock nearby,

..Who’s behind this? ASU-NARO? Have they came back and kidnapped me or something? But if so; Where’s Safalin? And Miley? And all the other people? Why am I wearing this?

I know I wasn’t wearing this when I was at the entrance.

…Whatever. I have more important things to worry about than this pink sweater-vest I have on.

I limp back to the hotel in slight pain from my head; My vision blurring as I enter my cottage, I lay down flat on my bed and hope for the best.

Dear Diary,

I found an unused diary and some decorative stickers under my bed earlier today; Honestly, I miss writing back at home, so I guess i’ll use it; Yesterday, a bear named Monokuma hijacked our school-trip and rewrote it to a Killing Game. I passed out on the concrete; Hitting my head really bad; When I woke up today, I met Mikan. I explored the island a bit more; I went to the kitchen and made a little cake to clear my mind.

I didn’t really do anything else, I just wandered more, talked to some other people.

I don’t know why everyone is so adamant on becoming friends here after what happened; I know this was supposednto be some friendship school trip or something before Monokuma came, but we’re in a killing game now; It would be stupid to make friends in a killing game.. It’ll only hurt you.

Honestly; I don’t care about escaping here; If i died here, it would be a good thing.

I really don’t matter anyways.

Dear Diary,

It’s been a few days since we’ve been on this island, Togami proposed that we hold a party soon; I’ll be in charge of baking for the event. I’ve sketched out a doodle of the cake I’ll be baking.

I’m also baking some cookies too; I wonder if they have chocolate chips in the kitchen. 

I’m kinda excited for the party; It’s been a while since I did something of this scale; Last time I did something like this was Kai’s anniversary with Q-Taro.

Dear Diary

At around Midnight, Monokuma called us down to Jabberwock Park, I reluctantly went out of curiousity; Monokuma announced a motive to “incite killings“

It’s honestly stupid; We’ll have to be paired to a person for the remainder of the game until someone kills.

Why would someone kill over that?

Usami then clamped handcuffs on us; And then Monokuma rolled a wheel to determine who would be linked together.

I’ve been laying low and avoiding talking to people after what happened; It’s probably stupid but I don’t really want to talk to anyone.

Well, I’ll have to talk to someone after this whole thing now since we’ll be paired up.

I didn’t really think of the motive at the time, but thinking about it now; It’s honestly kinda annoying; I prefer being alone in my room. Nidai brought stuff from his room, like towels, clothes and stuff.

I didn’t have any plans so I just let Nidai do what he wanted to do with me tagging along

I’m open to doing anything as long as it isn’t weird so I didn’t really care.

I baked a cake for everyone after that; Hanamura and Sonia helped out with the cake also.

It’s been a little irritating having to talk to everyone again but I’ll probably manage.

As I’m writing my diary entry; I feel a looming gaze from behind me, I didn’t care to look because I was still writing but when I was done, I turned a bit to see what it was.

”What are you writing?”

”..I’m writing about the things I did today, It’s a diary I found under my bed.”

“Why would that be under your bed?”

”I have no clue.”

A piercing sting hit my head and I jolted a bit and held my head in an attempt to stop it

”Ow..”

”Huh? That’s a concering amount of blood on your bandages..”

”…I’ll go to the bathroom to change them.”

”Alright..”

I head off to the bathroom, the slight buzzing of the lights makes my head hurt even more; I gaze into the mirror with a blank stare. 

I’ve never really had an injury of this scale; Maybe some cuts and scrapes here and there but never this much.

I take off my bandages and open one of the drawers to find a roll of bandages; I wrap them around my head carefully.

I change into my pajamas and head off to bed. Unfortunately, I had to sleep with Nidai in the same bed; I dislike sleeping with people, it took me almost 3 hours to fall asleep.

Dear Diary,

Today’s another boring day on this island; Nothing interesting or noteworthy to add.

Maybe accepting that invitation was a mistake; Now I’m stuck here sleeping with some random guy.

“WAKE UP!!”

“Wake up, sleepyhead! The announcement went off a while ago! I’ve been waiting for you to wake up!

“What.. What time is it”

”GAHAHA! You looked like you haven’t slept in a while!

“…”

I didn’t have any plans today so I just spent the day with Nidai; We went swimming by the beach, it was okay. 

My head still hurts but the wound is healing a bit.

I wonder if Teki and the others know where I am, I hope they won’t worry.. I miss them a lot.

I hope things will be okay.

Dear Diary, 

I wish Safalin never fixed me.

I never wanted to be fixed.

Dear Diary,

Today is the day of the party.

Togami inspected everyone for weapons and hazardous items; It was kinda annoying but whatever.

I got to the kitchen and started planning the things I’d bake; I started to get the ingredients and went to baking.

I started with the cake, then the cookies; and finally the decorating for both.

It took a while for everyone to arrive so I just waited and talked to a few people until they arrived; Some commotion stirred up

Nidai needed to use the bathroom really bad; but it was locked, Tanaka lost his.. “Hell-Hound Earring.” ; And Togami was confiscating the iron skewers in Hanamura’s food.

I’ve never been a fan of parties personally; I only like them because I get to make big cakes and loads of treats, they’re just too loud and crowded for me; If I could stay in my room, I would.

It happened. A murder happened.

I was in the corner drawing; When I heard a beeping noise echo in the Dining Hall; The power went out.

After the light came back on; We found a bloody body under one of the tables; I looked away in an attempt to not see it.

”N-Na.. gito?”

”..What the hell?”

”Wh-Why is Nagito...?”

“WHAT IS THIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSS!?!?”

”GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!”

This is stupid; Whoever did this was seriously stupid. Why would they kill over this? I’m honestly speechless.

“Yikes... Things really took a turn for the worse... My My! How intriguing! Oh, and I also unshackled you all from your classmates! Aren’t I so merciful..?”

“..Shut up already. Get on with it.”

”Hm? That’s no way to talk to your headmaster! Kids these days..!”

”Anyways.. On this tropical island known as Jabberwock Island, the very first murder has finally taken place! Hooray!”

“So it was one of us then.”

“Puhuhu... Of course... Nagito...was killed by one of you; If you look at the body, you can tell instantly. He was obviously murdered.. Look, He has such a painful expression on his face, don'tcha think...?”

I scoffed at Monokuma in annoyance; Seriously, he’s annoying..

”So then, an investigation will now take place! Please use this time wisely and try and find anything that may point to whodunnit! After that; A trial will take place!! Take care!”

And then, as fast as he appeared; he left.

Dear Diary,

We held a trial to find out who killed Komaeda; I heard everyone’s alibis and rebuted anyone who appeared to be lying.

After we found out the culprit; I wrote down what I think happened based on the evidence we found.

When Komaeda was cleaning the cabin, he set up some irons and stuff and set the so that the power would overload and go off, he placed a knife under the table with some glow in the dark substance; When the lights went off; He tried to grab the knife.

Hanamura was under the floorboards at this time and saw the knife’s light start to move; He stabbed through the floor and killed Komaeda right there; He yelled as loud as he could from under the floor in order to pretend to be in the kitchen.

That’s what I think happened, at least.

After everything had been done; The execution commenced.

Honestly, it was a stupid execution, I didn’t care about him. He was annoying. 

I cared about neither of them.

Dear Diary,

I went back to my room and fell down onto my bed; I’m so tired.

I noticed that Nidai’s stuff was still in my room so I collected all of the things in there and walked over to his dorm.

“..Who’s there?”

”It’s me, I’m just here to give your stuff back.”

”..Yeah, you can come in.”

“..Here.”

”Thanks. I completely forgot about how my stuff was in your room, I’m still.. thinking about how Nagito and Teruteru died.”

”Oh..Well, I’ll be going then.”

”See you.”
