Hello everyone! Fallenstreet01 here, pleased to meet ya!
Okay, this is my first fanfic ever and I'm kinda excited for it.
I've been reading fanfics of all kinds for a couple of years and definitely Danganronpa is the best one to read about. Right now I have a lot of ideas to work with but I won't be doing them until I find my own rhythm between writing and studying.
Any ways, let's go with the story and as everyone in this site I don't own anything but the plot.
"Alright people, be quiet for a moment" a guy with red eyes and incredibly big eyebrows speak to his classmates "As we all know, the Cultural Festival is in two weeks so we need to prepare something to the big day and I don't have to remind you the special prize the winner class will get in the final ceremony".
"Great" another guy with ginger hair speak "another chance for the 77th class to humiliate us".
"Kuwata-kun, you don't have to say it in that way"
"But, Ishimaru-san," a small guy with feminine aspect started "that's the truth, everyone here has being bullied for that class since we arrived here"
A bunch of affirmative nods and agreeing screams burst up in the classroom, by the way, I haven't presented myself, my name is Naegi Makoto. I'm just an average high school student. If you were to ask me what my favorite song or movie is, it would just be whatever's most popular at the time. You could even say that I'm more average than the average people. Probably the only things outstanding of me would be that I'm a very sociable person and (I think) a good writer. But coming back to what happens here is that the Cultural Festival is coming soon. You see, Hope's Peak is a high-level high school in which only incredibly rich students are admitted. It is said that anyone who graduates from here have a successful life guaranteed. For that reason was that my parents enrolled me here under the "student merits" program with a special scholarship, but since this is an elitist school, everyone who is under this program are target of constantly harassment, but this class has a big difference from the other classes: the headmaster Monojima Kumao, has a full and total hatred against us. You see, during the entrance ceremony some people from the 77th class, a regular senior class, played a prank onto him, exploiting an enormous balloon filled with pink paint over him in front of all the school and hiding all their stuff in our classroom. And since nobody knew anything, all of us were blamed for that. A few days later, we found who the real culprits were but when we tried to explain it all, the headmaster didn't let us speak and, without any kind of support from the academic staff, we ended up becoming the whole school's guinea pigs.
"We already know that they will beat the crap out of us" the before ginger haired Kuwata Leon reaffirmed. He's the leader voice in a punk band but his real passion is the baseball his dream is becoming a pro in the MBL, and he was once a baseball club member until he was expelled from it because some guys from 77th class blamed him of breaking the team's equipment, which was completely a lie, so he's really pissed with them.
"He's right, it's a useless fight. Why don't we better stay at our dormitories and sleep until this is over?" This tanned brunette with a selfness attitude is Asahina Aoi. She's a lazy girl who doesn't like any kind of sports at all and if she could live in a huge bed, eating all the donnuts she can and sleeping all the day, she would be the happiest girl in the world.
"We won't know that unless we try it!" the same guy with big eyebrows Ishimaru Kiyotaka replied. He's our class-representative and a Student council president's candidate, despite don't having anyone who support him, he's a polite and diligent guy who always looks for our class' sometimes a bit too intensely, but definitely a person in which one can rely.
"I hate to admit it but Kuwata-san is right, there is no way we can win against it" said a pale girl with short black hair. Her name is Yasuhiro Taeko but she's also known as "Celestia Ludenberg" in some game blogs. Her face and her factions can make her look like some kind of antique doll and given her refined modals and fragile appearance, you could think the she's a regular, but actually she's a pro card-gamer and an anime fan. Normally she's polite with everyone, but that's if she's in good mood of course, because when she gets mad for any reason, she becomes the scariest person in the world.
"Even you Yasuhiro-kun?"
"I'm just being realistic Ishimaru-kun, there is nothing we can do to beat them"
"I'm agree, no matter what we do, those bastards will ruin it" a girl with short raven hair with harsh attitude Ikusaba Mukuro. She was once a member of the dangerous "Fenrir" gang; she's really overprotective with her sister and doesn't allow to anyone to approach her easily so they don't have many friends but she doesn't seem to mind at all. At first sight we thought she was just an authoritative and unsociable girl with a severe sis-con* case but with the time we managed to get along with her... Kind of.
"M-Mukuro-neechan is right, also it's possible that the headmaster do something too." This time a beautiful girl with pig twin tails spoke. Enoshima Junko is the shy and introversive twin sister of Ikusaba-san, she's a real beauty but, for what her sister have told me, they lived in an orphanage, but one day Enoshima-san was adopted by a family whom abused and beat her, apart from being severely bullied in her last schools before Ikusaba rescued her, so she's afraid of everyone and the only people she trust are Ikusaba and an upper-class called Matsuda, who helped her in the past, but she has been gaining a little more confidence in herself thanks to us, I think.
"Well, that only goes for the likes of you, but I won't accept to be denigrated anymore, I'm the man who will rule this country, Togami Byakuya nothing less," declared the blonde glassed young man "if I were to be stopped here I will never be able to face my family name" Even though all the people think that he's just too selfish, his arrogance actually have a deeper meaning. He was once the son of the president of one of the most important companies in the country but, after his father's associates betray him and his company went to bankrupt, he lost everything he had and now he and his family lives with mine, since my father used to be his right hand and his only friend. He's arrogant, sharp-tongued and a bit obsessed with regain his position but he's very grateful and you can always count with him... If you can tolerate his usual insults.
"If you are so amazing then what do you propose to do Mr. "I-will-rule-the-whole-world"?"
"How do you dare to speak like that to my future husband?" a girl with brand tails and glasses, Fukawa Touko reclaimed to her. She is a published author that has made some big hits with web novels, that's why I asked to be my personal writing advisor, but her personality is really problematic; she has a harsh attitude toward everybody, wants to flirt with any cute boy she sees, and has several delusions with them specially with Togami, still she's a good advisor and a great person... Probably.
"You too better watch out your words choice or you will be in the hospital before you notice"
"Also when did I said that I will be your husband?"
"Okay, okay everyone, calm down fighting each other won't lead to anything" the most mature of us, the pacifistic thin and white haired girl Oogami Sakura calmed down everyone. She's a beautiful girl who dominate a lot of martial arts, has a very strong willpower and his boyfriend is the national wrestler champion but despite that she hates all kind of violence and always tries to solve the problems with words which makes her look like a mother-type girl and our female class-representative. She and Asahina are in good terms because somehow they became friends in their childhood.
"That's a funny thing to say when you are aspirating for the National wrestling championship"
"There are moments when you need to fight and this is not, besides even if we can or not defeat the 77th class we need to display something as a class or we'll get into trouble".
"Alright, how about a Neko-Maid Cafe which resembles the heroines from the marvelous anime Tokyo Mew-Mew?" suggested the biggest anime & manga fan Yamada Hifumi. He's a tall slim guy (I can't understand how he and Asahina can be in such shape if all they eat is junk food) who is the biggest otaku in the school, also he's an amateur mangaka and an expert craft worker and cosplayer and always wants to invite us to his conventions as a cosplay group.
"Can't you make a proposal that doesn't involve you're shitty anime stuff?" Responded the tall and strong young man Oowada Mondo just to receive an incredibly long sermon about how great is the anime culture "Just shut up, man you're a real pain in the ass". He was once the leader of a biker gang, but after his brother ended in the hospital by a street race, he quit the gang and now he's trying to change himself and be an example to others, still he's rude and intimidating but he's a good person once you know him. He and Ishimaru seems to get along in some kind of brotherhood as result of a dispute to be who was qualified to be the most adequate leader.
"Brother, please watch your language, remember that you're an example to everyone, and thank you Yamada-kun for your contribution, I think it's a good idea"
A few people seemed to agree until the voice of certain lilac haired was heard.
"Sorry for ruin the party but I don't think that it would work" Kirigiri Kyouko announced. The always stoic and serious girl in our class, or, at least, that's what she wants to look like. She always tries to be looked like a kind of calm and mysterious girl but the reality is that she is a really scare cat, can't handle pressure situations and cries a little when she gets in troubles but that's part of her charming. By the way, I have a crush for her, but there is no way I would declare my love for her. It's not like I don't want but his father is the vice-principal and it's a real problem. She really loves to her father but I don't think that feelings are mutual. He's well-known as a severe and strict man who never smile and only reason why the half of us haven't been expelled by now it's because his daughter is with us and that would give him bad reputation, but if she were to be in a relationship with any of us, he won't hold back and definitely would expel to that person, to Kirigiri, and to everyone else, so I won't sacrifice to everybody just fulfill my selfish desires. Besides there's no way that Kirigiri have feelings for me.
"For what I could investigate from the other classes, at least four more are going to make a cafe"
"So any kind of food stand is out of question, huh?"
"Then how about a divination store or a haunted house," Hagakure Yasuhiro said "a lot of people are very superstitious and those are very rental business" He's the oldest one here; apparently, he lose three years because he was some debt problems or something like that, he hadn't explain it too much. He's really clever, fast thinker and a good advisor for everyone, but he has a deep superstitious side and he uses to overreact sometimes.
"Not all the people are that credulous as yourself, besides how much should we cash to have a benefit?" Taeko asked.
"Well how about 10,000 buckets per person"
"10,000! That's way too expensive!"
"Really? I think it's a good deal"
"For someone as me, that's a joke cost, but for the commoner customers we'll have it's clearly a robbery"
"The king has spoken"
"And there is another issue" This time Fujisaki Chihiro talked "There is the chance for the 77th class to try to wreck our stand, so whatever we will do, it has to be something not too complicated" As expected of him, he's, by far, the most smart person in our class, he's a very kind guy and his girly appearance makes him popular with the girls, but he has problems talking with unknown people so he prefers to work in his computer almost all the time. He always think in a more advanced way than all of us.
"Ha! You don't need to lie us, you only want to do something easy so you can have more time with your precious computer"
"Wha…! That's not… totally true"
... Probably.
"Then how about a Karaoke? We just need a stereo and a T.V." My neighbor and childhood friend, Maizono Sayaka spoke, we have known each other from a long time, so she know what am I thinking before I say it, well it's not only me, she has a really good intuition which sometimes makes me think if she isn't indeed an esper; she is a kind, nice person, but she's a bit scary when she get angry, and her biggest dream is to become a famous idol despite she can't stand in front of a crowd at all "and we can even make a song contest, that way the customers and we can have fun together".
"You only want to presume that you can sing well, don't you?
"Just a bit, but everyone can participate and I know that you have been practicing how to sing to Togami, Fukawa-san"
"Whoa! Who tell you?"
"I'm an esper, you know?"
"Like hell, you must have spy me you stalker, mustn't you? You freakish amateur singer!"
"Amateur?!"
"Is that the part that offended her!?"
"Actually" Trying to prevent a conflict between those two I interrupted them "that sounds pretty good"
"Indeed, that's a great idea"
"Yeah, that will work"
"I don't want to brag, but my incredible voice will make faint to all the ladies"
"Then you won't sing at all"
"You can't even compare yourselves with my incredibly amazing voice, so I'll participate only when a good singer arrives"
"I shall sing all the greatest openings of all the times"
"And we can have Leon's band as special guests"
"That sounds like a good practice before our performance next month"
"With this, we can even win"
Everybody was having a good time thinking what they were going to do and trying to contribute in one way or another until the most annoying voice we could ever heard spoke.
"Upupupupu! If that's what you people are gonna do, let me advice you not to come here on that days"

And that's it. This chapter and the next will be just the introduction for the story. I had a lot of fun writing this, imagining how do the cast would be and an appropriate reactions for every and each one of them. Probably I'll be posting the next one on Friday or Saturday.
So what do you think about it? Leave a review and tell me your opinions, all the criticism is well received but be aware that I'll reply you with the same feelings you put in it.
Anyway thanks for reading and have a great day.
