Makoto's POV

I woke up in a dark, empty room. Empty, that is, if you were to ignore the three other people with me. "Yasuhiro, Byakuya, Aoi, You alright?" I asked. I received a few mumbled replies that, while clearly annoyed and worried, at least let me know they were all right. I heard Aoi's voice, "Where are we?" She asked. We all stood up and looked around our prison. It was about half the size of one of the dorms and with none of the furnishings. The walls, floor and ceiling were all smooth, grey stone, and the only things in the room were a camera and monitor. "Some sort of restraining area," Byakuya said, "I'll bet that beast has several of these". "HEY!" a childish voice broke through the silence. The monitor turned on, revealing a quite angry looking Monobear. "Is that any way to refer to your headmaster? You're lucky that rudeness isn't against the rules, or else I'd have to give out some punishment!" Yasuhiro spoke up, "Forget that! Why'd you put us in here?" His eyes grew wide as he seemed to come across a terrifying idea, "you're not gonna... Probe us or anything, right?" I sighed. Yasuhiro seemed to regain his old personality when he was frightened. I decided to ignore the last bit of his question, and asked, "Yeah, why are we here? It's been sixteen years since the murders, and now you suddenly throw another motive at us?" Monobear seemed to find this extremely funny. "Upupupu, oh, this isn't a motive! And it's been so long because it took me a while to find them." I was becoming more frustrated by the minute, "What do you mean them? And if this isn't a motive, what is it? What's going on?" Monobear ignored me, and just continued to laugh. Aoi, who seemed to be the most worried of us, shouted at the monitor, "What about our kids?" This got Monobear's attention. "Upupu- hmm? Oh, them. Well, they're the reason you're in here in the first place. Wouldn't want to give anyone an unfair advantage!" And with that, the monitor was shut off. I stamped my foot on the ground in frustration. "What's he talking about, what's going on, why won't that bear ever give us any answers?!" I looked at my companions, and Aoi and Yasuhiro seemed to be thinking more or less the same thing. Byakuya, on the other hand, had a knowing look on his face that somewhat disturbed me. "Isn't it obvious?" He asked, "it's happening again. Monobear... He's starting a new school life of mutual killing".

Hey! Look, I know that there's an overabundance of Dangan Ronpa SYOCs, but I really think I can bring something new here. If you're interested in submitting an OC, here are the guidelines.

1: POV will be alternating between Makoto and his son, so no matter what you do, I won't let your character narrate. Sorry.

2: like with all of these stories, the OC submission form is in my bio. Fill it out and PM it to me.

3: if your character is too similar to an actual DR character, I probably won't choose them.

4: even though this does take place in Japan, Japanese names are not necessary

5: since three characters have already been decided (Naegi, Hagakure, Togami, and Asahina's children) I'll only be excepting 13 characters as opposed to the usual 16.

6: submissions are allowed until October 11th, but I may lengthen it.

That's it! Hope to see lots of submissions!
