Hello, and welcome to a new Danganronpa fic, and for the first time, I will be doing a DR fic which Mukuro Ikusaba will be the main character, as something hit me that inspired me to do a fanfic featuring the Super High School-level Soldier.
This fic is inspired from a 1987 movie which starred Arnold Schwarzenegger, and the titular entity which spawned a franchise, which is Predator. Having recently downloaded the original movie via the internet, I enjoyed it and it inspired me to make a fanfic version, and Ikusaba came to my head and felt that she fits perfectly, and it took me three weeks to work on the first chapter as well as borrowing the characters from the three DR series.
Read on as this fic will capture the elements of the movie and since this fic will be somewhat violent, it will be M-rated, as blood and gore will be prevalent here.
Well, enjoy!
Ch. 1: Deburīfingu
Somewhere in Japan, the scene shifts to an unspecified location, which the scene zooms inside where you can see that the place resembled a secret base, and as the scene zoomed further inside, you can see what appeared to be a debriefing room, which was quite high tech and full of CCTVs, and outside are several soldiers and a few Diet officials who appeared to be holding a secret meeting, and there a few Diet officials are holding an emergency meeting which they seem to keep it a secret, away from prying eyes and ears so that neither the Prime Minister, the Ministry of Justice and the Japanese Emperor are aware of this.
The Diet officials who are conducting a secret meeting are discussing about the recent events, such as a foreign student was arrested in North Korea for a perceived crime that involves NATIONAL SECURITY, where six months later he was released on the grounds of HUMANITARIAN REASONS, but the said foreign student was already in a bad shape and nearing comatose, and after being airlifted back to his country of origin, the student expired a week later.
The North Korean government denied having a hand on the student's fate, though it was obvious that they tortured him and only released him as they deem him no use, and the unspecified country's government urges the United Nation to allow them to do a military strike, but the UN secretary general, who at heart is a coward, urges the said country to observe maximum tolerance, saying that North Korea might unleash their warhead and would result in war.
The Diet officials who are having an emergency meeting discussed that a Japanese scientist was tricked into entering North Korean waters, as his boat was sabotaged and the waves pushed the boat to the North Korea terittory and the government there claim that the scientist is trespassing and use this as a basis to arrest him, and the Diet officials are now making plans to do a secret rescue mission, and they are discussing on how to rescue their fellow Japanese without arousong suspicion or attract attention from the media.
"Those damn North Koreans..."
"They must be dealt with..."
"Not now...getting our fellow Japanese out of that damn country is our top priority..."
"I say we nuke those son of a..."
"We can't! The UN will have our hides...and the two ministers and the emperor will force us to do the HARA-KIRI if they find out that we are planning to strike North Korea without their permission!"
"He's right!"
"Do you have a better idea?"
"Um...if I may...I have a suggestion..."
One Diet official raised his hand and offered a suggestion on what to do, saying he knows of a way to rescue the scientist without having to inform the Prime Minister or the Minister of Justice, saying he has a contact who can carry out the secret rescue mission without having any military involvement, as well as saying that the ones he would recommend are TRAINED PROFESSIONALS who have built a strong reputation not only in Japan but also in overseas.
The others stared at the Diet official upon hearing him say that which made them curious about this and they peered closer to hear more as the Diet official told the others that he happened to know about a group of professionals who can carry out any mission which also includes rescue efforts, and though their fee is quite high, the Diet officials will accept any requests as long as they accepted the payment fee, which made the other officials feel a bit hesitant as they are shown to worry about shelling money over some ragtag group.
They made it known that they are not sure about this fearing that this group might ask demand a high fee which they felt might not afford it, which shows that the politicians present in this meeting are somewhat greedy in terms of trying to save money for themselves.
"Um..."
"I don't know..."
"My pocket is empty..."
"I only have 500 Yen in my bank account..."
"I recently bought a candy..."
"I had an operation..."
"Um...I'm due to have a CIRCUMCISION..."
"Er...I'm poor...?"
But the Diet officials urged his fellow politicians to stop worrying about their own profit as saving the scientist is a top priority, and if the military or the two ministers were to get involve then the rescue plan would be jeopardized, as the media are as greedy as the politicians as they are looking for some new scoop to televise, which the politicians resented what they were told.
However, a military official who is among those who attended this secret meeting persuaded the politicians to forget about their POCKET MONEY for now and try to sacrifice the paycheck just for this particular situation, saying that if the North Korean military were to force the Japanese scientist to create a powerful nuclear weapon, then the North Korean army would launch it on their own leisure and it might hit Japan that would result in a radiation crisis, which the greedy politicians slowly, and reluctantly, give in to the request, and were forced to accept it.
"..."
"Fine..."
"Just this once..."
"Damn...okay...but this will be a one-time thing..."
"Okay, okay..."
"If this mission is a success, then I would not mind it..."
"Just make sure no one finds out..."
"Er...do you accept 15 Yen...?"
After that, the military official told the Diet official that everything is settled, and told him that they can now proceed to the planning, and the politicians present asks him what this ragtag group is like and how can the Diet official say that this group can do anything, in which the Diet official says that he has met this group on two occasions, and said that he has seen them in action personally and they can be trusted in assigning this group to a secret mission, where no one else, including the media, can follow this group and the mission assigned to them can be carried on uninterrupted and uncompromised.
The other politicians glanced at each other as they were curious about why their fellow politician is showing so much confidence at this group, and one of them asks him who is this group and how can he be sure that this group can carry out any mission and if this group can do something like infiltrating North Korea and rescue the Japanese hostage without alerting and provoking the North Korean military, in which the Diet official responded with seriousness.
"Because I witnessed them in action...and I know they can do it.
"Are you sure?"
"You must be joking..."
"You better not play us for a sucker..."
"We can send the Yakuza to fry your butt if you're just messing with us..."
"Are you really serious about what you said?"
"I bet you're lying..."
"Yeah...and you're just trying to pocket our money..."
The Diet official told his fellow politician that this group can be trusted, and opened a projector where the screen showed the group in question, and identified them as Fenrir, a well-known mercenary group that has earned a strong reputation not only in Japan but at certain parts of the world. The politicians stared in awe and disbelief seeing that the Fenrir members looked like high school students and they started to cast doubt about the group's credibility, but the Diet official assured that the group's appearance is not just mere show.
As the politicians in this secret meeting appeared to be in doubt, the Diet official then pressed a button where it showed the members of Fenrir, and one by one the members are revealed and they are identified by the following slides, and they are:
- Mukuro Ikusaba
- Kazuichi Soda
- Akane Owari
- Sonosuke Izayoi
- Juzo Sakakura
- Nekomaru Midai
- Teruteru Hanamura
- Great Gozu
The politicians were staring in surprise after seeing the lineup and they wondered if these Fenrir members have the proof to back up their reputation, and there the Diet official activated the next slide where the footage shows that the Fenrir members have taken down numerous obstacles and succeeded in various missions, with Ikusaba doing most of the work, using her knives and even various weapons, and even outmaneuver several obstacles that came in her way, and it also showed that Ikusaba has succeeded in completing various mission whether in a group or when on a solo operation.
The politicians were awestruck at seeing this, and are now considering in willing to sacrfice their paycheck if this would help in rescue the Japanese scientist as well as to teach North Korea a lesson and now they are willing to pay Fenrir any amount as long as the mercenary group can complete the mission without giving themselves away.
"Oh, okay."
"I'm in!"
"You can have my paycheck of next month..."
"You can have my raffle ticket!"
"I'll pay any amount!"
"I'll donate 500,000 Yen!"
"I'll donate my VIRGINITY!"
"What was that?"
Seeing that his fellow politicians are in total agreement, the Diet official then told them that he is about to introduce them to the leader of Fenrir, in which the door opened and the unexpected visitor came in, and the politicians were surprised to see who came in. He is identified as Kyosuke Munakata, and the politicians whispered among themselves as they did not expect that the Fenrir leader would look so young and not imposing enough to convince them that he is a force to be reckon with.
"That's Fenrir's leader...?"
"What the heck?"
"Look at him..."
"He looked like a university student..."
"Is he for real...?"
"I bet he's a fraud..."
"He better not be here to serenade us..."
"What a loser..."
The Diet official assured to his fellow politicians that Munakata is no mere show and even said that he leads Fenrir and because of him Fenrir became a sought-after mercenary group, but one politician arrogantly asks Munakata if he is what he appear to be, saying he looked like a high school graduate that could not even hold a gun, which Munakata stared at the politician with a dagger-like look, yet he restrained himself so as not get baited by the politician's taunts, and responded in a calm way.
"Hey, silverfish!"
"Sir...?"
"You don't look like hot stuff to me..."
"I beg your pardon...?"
"I bet you don't have a weapon..."
"I do."
"Yeah...a sword that is latched between your legs...where you can stab it between the legs of a prostitute...HA-HA-HA-HA!"
"You are mistaken, sir..."
When the arrogant politician taunted Munakata that he is too scared to hold a weapon, Munakata brought out a sword which emits a powerful heating energy and did a vertical slash which severs the politician's body in two, killing him on the spot, and the other politicians were taken by surprise at what they just witnessed, and Munakata asks them if they still doubt Fenrir's credibility, which they responded by saying that they are convinced and will put their trust in Fenrir.
"No...we believe you!"
"You're good!"
"An excellent swordsman!"
"Then that means Fenrir is reliable!"
"Very reliable!"
"Yes...we trust you now...just take it easy with the sword..."
"We won't insult you...we promise!"
"Just don't hurt us!"
The Diet official then steps in to quell off any tension and tells Munakata that he intend to hire Fenrir to do a rescue mission and told him the specifics and what is at stake here. Munakata listened intently and after hearing the details, he said he is willing to accept the mission though the fee Fenrir receive would be quite high given that his group are going to infiltrate North Korea, and asks them if they know where the prisoner is held, and the Diet official showed them the location based on using a secret drone and after that Munakata said that Fenrir accepts the request, and everything is now set.
To Be Continued...
Hope you liked the opening chapter, and as stated, this fic will be BLOODY as you saw what Munakata did to the politician who insulted him…
Also, to depict Fenrir, I borrowed the characters from Danganronpa 1 to 3, which explains the members here…
And while the plot device is fictional I did borrow some of the current events, such as a college student who died after being imprisoned at North Korea. I am sure that NK is as dangerous as other terrorists…hope those guys get what they deserve…
Preview:
The next chapter starts the actual story as Fenrir is going to do a covert rescue mission…
See you in 3 to 4 weeks...
