Ibuki Mioda had been sentenced to a very common headache-inducing task leading up to Christmas: finding a tree. So far, she'd gone to every place she knew that sold Christmas trees, and still couldn't find a single one. So, she went about it the old-fashioned way: hauling an axe to a evergreen forest and chopping down a tree.

Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu had to rig up the Christmas lights, and he was already having difficulties. Apparently, whoever stuffed the lights in the trash bags didn't know the meaning of subtle, as the bulbs were obviously broken. After taking a trip to a hardware store and threatening the shop owner over the Christmas lights he had rigged up inside the store, he was a very happy man. Until, in the middle of decorating the roof, he got tangled up, tripped over another wire, and found himself hanging upside-down from a string of colorful lights. Akane came out, a little drunk, noticed the Ultimate Yakuza, and started to repeatedly yell, "Baby Gangsta! Baby Gangsta! You stuck up?" Fuyuhiko grumbled. This was going to be a very long day.

Kazuichi Soda was surrounded by many bottles. Many, many, empty bottles. He drank way too much the night before and consequently had to deal with a serious headache when he woke up. Along with another thing...his stomach. "How is my kidney stone not dead yet?" He sat up, turned a shade of green, and immediately laid back down, clutching his stomach with one hand, and his head with the other. "Where's Mikan when you need her?"

Chihiro Fujisaki sat at the desk he had Mondo install(with some guidance of course). He had already folded fifty-two pieces of paper, each one a different color. After giving each one a different motif that fitted the different Ultimates, he started drawing the cover words. This is so much work, Chihiro thought. Why can't I just be drunk with Soda? He shrugged to himself, continuing with his work. I'm going to need all the coffee in the world.

Toko Fukawa and Hajime Hinata sat at the dinette table, filing the bills of Christmas. "Ugh! Why do I have to do this?"
Hajime groaned. "For the fifth time, we're apparently the smartest out of everyone. That means that we have to handle smart things." A slight smirk appearing on his face, he added, "Byakuya said that you can handle it, but if you want to go write stories instead, I wouldn't blame you-"
Toko started filing bills like there was no tomorrow. "CHARGE FOR MASTER!"
As fun as this was to watch, Hajime had a slight headache from dehydration and boredom.

Sonia Nevermind sighed as she prepared the dining table for her guests. She wasn't happy at all that they were coming over. That's right, reader-she had to deal with her in-laws for Christmas. Looking at...something, she said, "And I hate my mother in-law especially! She's a witch, I hate her!"
She kept it up-covering the table with a fancy cloth, putting plates in the right places, silverware, on and on. Looking back at...something, she said, "I really hate-"
"Um, we're now over here."
"Oh...I really hate Christmas for this reason only."

"Ishimaru? What is someone like you doing collecting frostbite?"
"Oh, I'm helping out with donations for Salvation Army." He shook his bell twice, than asked, "Would you like to donate anything? Even a penny helps."
Byakuya scoffed. "Like I would ever help peasants."
Ishimaru looked hurt. "But-but-but-"
"NEVER!" The Ultimate Affluent Prodigy stalked off.
"This may be a rude thing to say, but I hope he gets coal for Christmas."

Hiyoko Saionji and Peko Pekoyama found themselves in Toys"R"Us, buying toys for the others. "Master will most certainly enjoy this," she said, pointing at a stuffed cat. "And I'll be able to pet it."
Hiyoko gave her "the look". "Who cares about your stupid master? I want a Transformers!"
"Hiyoko, you most certainly will not get it if you keep asking for it."
"But I want it! I want it! I want it! I need it-oh, hey what's this?" she wondered aloud, pointing at a foreign candy all the way by the checkout lane. Peko sighed. This was going to be an even longer day.

Mondo Owada grumpily sighed. "Why. The Fuck. Are there no parking spaces?!" He had ridden his motorcycle around the lot three times and the parking garage five. "Please, please, please motorcycle gods! Find me a parking space!" A parking spot opened up immediately after his prayers. "Praise the motorcycle gods!"
Angie Yonaga pulled up into the empty space, got out, walked past the fuming Mondo, and corrected him. "I think you mean 'Praise Atua!'"
He stood on the spot for three seconds before chasing after Angie on his motorcycle, screaming profanities his bro would not approve of.

Chiaki Nanami had just bought different gaming systems for her friends. Several Wii Us, multiple Playstations, many XBOX One's, and two Nintendo Switches: one for her, and one for Hajime.
But when she checked all of the boxes to make sure it was wrapping-safe, she found three words any gamer despises. "'Batteries not included?!' Are you-are you-are you-are you kidding me right now!? I have to go out and buy several 32-packs of AA batteries after spending somewhere close to twenty-thousand dollars?! OH, FUCK YOU TOO, NINTENDO!"
Flopping down defeatedly, she added, "Bastards."

Nekomaru Nidai sat in front of the TV, waiting for the commercial to come already. "This is such a stale special. I mean come on, it has no plot, no exposition, it's like it was written by four-year-olds! But most of all," he concluded, "it prevents you from taking a good shit!"
"Nekomaru, shut up! I'm trying to do the bills!"
"...GOOD SHIIIII-"

Leon Kuwata and Sayaka Maizono found themselves knocking on random strangers house, in the snow, and singing carols to them, in the snow, and getting rejected 60% of the time, in the fucking snow.
"Sayaka, I'm freezing," Leon whined. "Can we go home now?"
"Not until everyone on this street knows the power of my beautiful voice." She started singing "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen", but her voice started cracking until it almost completely shut off. She hoarsely whispered, "No. NO. Please no."
Leon smirked. "Still want to carol in the snow?" Sayaka stomped on his foot and kneed him in a place where the snow don't fall. "Ah! What the fuck, Sayaka?! I want to have children too, you know?"
"I know you don't."
"You know I don't."
That was fun to write! This is a fan-fiction of Danganronpa, as well as an early Christmas fanfic.
Hope you enjoyed the first chapter!
