So... i found a barelly functioning laptop, so that means that "the (kinda) devil hero" and "touhou's react to death battle" will come back, and now you might be wondering what the fuck is this danganronpa shit?.
Well this is technically my second story i just never posted it because i just forgot about it, now i did atleast one chapter of it like a year ago and it never appeared again since i have already found the doc of the story in this shit laptop (it doesn't even have a battery) i decided to show it to you guys and see what you think.
I explained everything i had to, so enjoy this thing.
Death.
That thing that no one can avoid, if you are alive then at some point death will come too, that's pretty much how everything that lives ends.
So...
Why the fuck am i alive?.
Welcome new user.
...What?.
You have been chosen to use the skill master.
The shit is a 'skill master'?, how are we even talking?.
The skill master let's you learn jus about everything as long as you can understand how to do it.
This sounds familiar, like a boot-leg version of 'the gamer' or something like that, Am i just going to accept this? well yeah i literally have no other way out or at least i thinki don't.
For you to get the skill master you first need to select your new species.
What will your new race be?.
Can i chose anything?...
yes.
Then... human.
Why? well because i really don't want to experience new things like how certain species take a piss just chossing anything other than human would make my life fucking awkward.
Okay now that you have choosen, we will sort your appearence randomly, along with four skills and the world you will live in, please wait a moment.
can't exactly complain when i'm going to live again but i wonder were i'm gonna be living for a while.
you must enter another world in a convincing way so you will be thrown in the streets as a hobo.
That seems like a horrible plan... and it really doesn't sound that convincing.
Destinacion has been choosen: danganronpa (alter).
Skills have been acquired.
How to view them will be explained when you reach your new world.
Wait danganronpa?!, and what the shit does alter mean?!
Oh i feel dizzy...
location unkown.
Where the hell am i?...
This street is fucking dirty and also the other hobos that were asleep, so this is my new life as a fucking homeless man god i hate my life.
Landing in japan with sleeping hobos not a way i saw my life to go.
Now, why ami so calm? i just aparently died and got resurected in one of the worst places that ever came to be worst of all i'm homeless, must be monday it's the only day i can blame for this shit.
I look at myself or better said at my body, so i'm ripped that's good i'm also tanned so i'm probably still mexican... and my clothes suck, a dirty red hoody no shirt and black sports pants that are in a worst condition than earths atmosphere.
Welcome back user to see your skills by thinking about it in your head and it will appear just for you as an mental image.
That sound stupidly easy, to a retarded degree.
Time to give it a try i guess...
User: Roberto torres.
SKILLS.
Body-
Myostatin-related muscle hypertrophy: you were born with 40 times more muscle density than the avarege man not only that but there will not be muscle degradation with time, you may as well be super human.
Mind-
Instict: your reaction speed and awareness of your surroundings is clearly above that of normal humans not only that but it will help you spot dangerous people.
Multi-lengual: the lenguage wall is none existant to you, being able to talk all lenguages decently enough.
Calm man: your emotions are allways in check, it's hard for people to get a rise out of you.
Mystical-
Styles-
Well this is a little weird, didn't know youcould actually be born with so much muscle, sounds like that thing that watatsuki was born with something that i wouldn't know about if i hadn't read that manga that i will miss heard it was gonna get a sequel, what i don't know why did this thing chose a name for me, and why are the skills put in different categories.
The skills are categorized for what part of your being they affect, you will gain more skills completing missions in the world you live in or gaining one by simply learning it yourself.
Missions such as this one.
Main mission: make a signifcant change in the timeline.
Sounds easy enough... except that this is danganronpa and trying to make a significant change means messing with crazy bitch junko wich i don't want to do, i like being a sane man thank you very much.
And main missions are obligatory, more missions will be given to you as time progresses have a good life.
so wether i like it or not i'm going to have to mess in junko plans one way or another and i don't even know in what place of the timeline am i, also i just watched nicoB play some of the games but i know that it also has some novels.
And i still don't know what the fuck does alter mean, maybe this place has some changes that i'm not aware off? i don' know and i hate that.
Conclussion? i don't know shit about this place, atleast multi-lingual will save me the need to learn japanesse, god life sucks.
I need a plan to well survive then i'll think about creating a change in this place, i sit down in the very dirty ground with my back on the wall
So first of all i have no papers whatsoever meaning that i'm illegaly in japan, but by being homeless that really won't matter unless they find out i'm mexican, now that could be a problem.
Not only that but i have to keep myself off from the radar of a LOT of people, you know the fact that no one knows anything about me is my best weapon i preffer if it's stays that way not that i wouldn't trust people like jin or makoto but being close to them means getting closer to junko's plan and fuck that shit for now.
Maybe i should try to sleep like the hobos around me need to get used to a new sleeping hours, why did i had to go and come back to life in the middle of the night.
Or i could look around this ominous series of alleyways that aparently homeless people live in to get myslef acomodated with the area, looking around me i find nothing really interesting so i guess i'm going to sleep for now, or atleast i'll try to.
I close my eyes and...
...
Jesus this is uncomfortable, turns out sleeping in something that isn't a bed or something like one is a little painfull wich makes me realize that i know live by myself in a foreingn place i always stayed in my house rarelly leaving it not only that but here there could be some... unsabory people.
So my sittuation is worse than i though it was yeah i'm gonna have some sleeples nights, boy is that gonna be fun.
Well if i'm not gonna sleep this night i guess i could go walk around a little, also i should zip my hoody it's kinda cold in here, i zip up my hoody get up and walk in a random direction i also should watch were i'm walking bare feet i could step in in something sharp if i'm not careful.
Walking...
Now to the left, more alleyways morehobos some actually awake surprinsingly nice people even said hi to me, but i didn't found anything of note in this series of alleyways except that it's called the "forgetable" the name is a little cringe worthy but i guess it makes sense with all the hobo's that nobody cares bout including me too.
This place is pretty big i have been walking around for 20 minutes and i'm still in this bunch of alleyways now that i actually look into it the houses that i have found are abbandoned guess this place is called forgetable for more than just the homeless peolple makes me wonder why this place got so empty.
And if this place has so many abbandoned houses why isn't no one using them, things to keep in mind just in case the reason for it is dark and morbid.
Guess i'll go back nothing to do here for me, tomorrow people are actually gonna be up not counting the few that said hi to me i could ask questions about this place.
45 minutes later.
Turns out i have a horrible sense of direction not that it matters since i'm homeless i should have figured out that i didn' have a place to go back to, so i just wasted like an hour of my life.
Right now i'm in another stupid alley that is like all the other alley's that i have gone through nothin interesting about it...
"AAAAHHHHH!!!!"
Well nevermind, that scream was close by maybe i should check on it?, am i really that bored that i would go to a dangerous place? the answer is yes against my better judgement i'm going there.
I walk in the direction of the screen it was to my left i could see another alley there, so making my way as silently as i could i got there my back againts the wall just before turning to the other alley way i took a little peek.
I saw a tall man wich description i will limit to "generic rapist" and a young girl like 15 maybe 14 years old it was kinda dark but i noticed three things an ahoge, green eyes and a sailor outfit (fucking japan).
That girl looks familiar...
Oh yeah she is the sister of the only guy that managed to defy and kill junko... komaru if i don't bad recall.
And she is about to be raped, now i have to options here i could walk away and avoid the problems that this would probabbly bring to me or i could be a descent human being and help her.
"Please stop..."
Okay!, okay! i'm going!.
I get out of my hidding spot and start walking as casually as i could for this shit both of the noticed me the guy stopped putting his leg where he shouldn't and stared at me.
"hey get the...", he stoped talking onece he noticed i was actually taller than him i think i'm 6 feet tall probably a little taller than that he was at best 5'8, he seemed as poor as me but he atleast has shoes, wich i'm gonna take from him.
After i beat his ass of course.
"look du-" he started talking to me probably to avoid a fight with me, but i didn't let him i just raised my right hand and punched him in the face.
The results were a little... unexpected, i knew that i was stronger than the avarage man but i didn't think i would disfigure the guy with a punch that i didn't put my back on.
Also my punch went by really fast faster than i expected, that miosta whatever really made strong.
So when the guy flew like 4 feet of the ground to my left bleeding from his head in a lot of pain and most likely dying i was a little shacken i would have been reacting worse than this but the calm man skill was keeping my shit together.
I stared at the girl that looked even more scared now, maybe i should say something before she gets the wrong idea.
"so why is such a young girl in this fucked up place?" could have been a little nicer me...
She... is still too scared to talk to me, understandable i probably killed a man with just one punch like it was a normal thing to do.
"i'm gonna guess that you are either deaf or rude, because when someone ask a question you should atleast acknowledge it" wow i cannot say nice things to the clearly panicing girl in front of me.
But it worked she still seemed to have piss herself but atleast she was finally talking kinda, she was failing to answer me and was just spouting random stuff that i couldn't understand.
"take a deep breath, it'll help" i told her a little amussed at her current condition.
She did as i said and finally used words "th-thank you..." wow she sounds so vulnerable kinda sad likea kicked puppy, suddenly i don't feel bad for the guy i just probably killed and even if i didn't kill him the bleeding will.
"just being a good samaritan" i just noticed we are speaking japanese and i'm doing it pretty well i just don't know how i know of the multilengual thing but i just don't know how i'm doing it just that it comes naturaly to me.
Time to get this conversation going "you still haven't told me why are you here".
She answered with "i-i was ju-just coming from a-a frie-friends home, we we-were doing a sch-school project and i-it got pre- pretty late so i t-took a sho-shortcut" well that's kind of a stupidthing to do.
"and said shortcut takes you through "forgetable" am i right?" she seemed confused for some reason.
"by forgetable you mean this place?" she asked me no longer a stutering mess.
"yeah all the hobos around call it that, but that's not important right now you should go to your home in the night the ugly side of people show up more in aplace full of homeless people"i said making her deflate a little.
"right... can you please come with me?" she asked me as she got scared again.
"weird thing to ask to a stranger, but i get you this place is dangerous so let's go, but before that..." i walked to the man i just destroyed and kneeled down and took off the dirty white sneakers then i put them on, i'm finally all covered kinda.
"..." she just stared at me baffled by my actions.
"hey walking around bare foot is annoying and i doubt this guy will ever have the brain power to walk again" i told her while getting up and walking a little testing if my new foot wear fitted me.
They feel a little loose but it's still better than nothing.
"so girl lead the way" i didn't want to tell her about my horrible sense of direction.
"right, i haven't told you my name i'm naegi komaru" already knew that not that she was aware of that.
Guess it's my turn now "i'm torres roberto call me robert" yeah smoth one me!.
"nice to meet you robert" she said all happy and stuff, seriously she should be on edge around me.
"well komaru, as i said before you should lead the way after all i don't know where you live" i said she nodded slowly and started walking away from the probably murder scene then she stoped and looked at me again while playing with her fingers.
"is... that guy gonna be okay?" she said i just stared at her trying to figure out why the hell does she care about the guy that tried to get into her very small skirt.
I could lie and say yes and be done with this shit or i could say the the truth and tellher that idon't even know if he is even alive.
"probably, why do you care?" i said a little curious of komaru she acted more scared in the game she appeared then again it was basically the end of the world at that moment.
"i don't know... it just wouldn't feel right to let him die" huh so my only conclussion is that this is how she acted before the tragedy and that just gave me an idea.
She may be my way to complet my first mission, i befriend her wait until the events of super despair girls and make a change in the timeline without dealing with junko i mean the kids are bad but atleast they're not junko.
Well said plan could work but that alter thing maybe means that everything that i know is useless.
"do you have a phone?" i asked the girl without pockets or anything to keep things in.
"yeah" as she said that she used her right arm and put her hand inside her shirt into her...
I stared at her my face blank she noticed this and blushed in embarrasment "i forgot to bring my backpack and i needed a place to put it in" excuses girl.
"whatever you say, if you are so worried about this guy call an ambulance and then the police" i told her while trying to forget where she keept her fucken flip phone.
" and do it while we walk to save us some time" i said then started walking she hurriedly got ahead of me remembering that i have no idea where the hell i'm going.
While she made her call i tuned her out and started making a plan on my head i needed to affect the world around me while i didn't have a real reason to do this gaining new skills intrigued me, also the fact that the despair thing is going to affect everyone so i atleast can try to do something about it... unless it doesn't happen for that alter thing that i still know nothing about.
So what to do to talk with komaru, manga? no i know nothing of the manga around here maybe i could get her to talk about her family? nah that will be too weird coming from an stranger, oh yeah! i could ask more about that school project of her's.
"...yeah thank you" oh she finished the call neat, okay operation "talking with the toilet" is a go.
...
Woah i'm not very clever.
"so what was this school project that got you here?" i asked trying to make a conversation as i planned.
She plassed her phone back... where it belonged i guess and stared at me while we kept walking "oh it's just a model of the human organs for my biology class".
I actually expected something incredibly weird that didn't made sense but that seemds like something out of normal highschool.
"neat" i simply said not really thinking on how much i was gonna have to talk to her.
Disregarding the fact that i didn't know how to keep the conversation going she spoke again "yeah me and kaede are working really hard on it".
Kaede...
Kaede?...
KAEDE?!
I almost tripped after hearing that, komaru noticed this and asked me "you okay there?".
Recovering from my shockquicly i made a quick excuse "yeah the sneakers are a little big for me just getting used to them that's all".
Great that V3 is also part of this and i now nothing of that game i didn't even finish nico's playthrough of that one i was on episode 10!, poor kaede by the by and poor me since there is now even more unknows.
No wait kaede is just a name but just to make sure i need to somehow get more information.
"kaede huh? sounds like a nice girl" woah yeah that's gonna give me a lot of answers good one me!, fuck.
"yeah she is, and her skill with the piano is even nicer" komaru said.
...
Roll with it.
"that seems cool but what about you?" i asked trying to change the subject unless i lose my shit.
"me? well there is not a lot to say about me, i'm just an ordinary girl that likes manga" yeah allow me to call bullshit, this badass girl that fucks up monokumas like nothing and befriends a serial killer says.
"really? you didn't strike me as the "normal" type" i said to her who stared at me with a pout that i won't lie looked fucking cute.
"what does that mean?" she sounds angry quick say something!.
"well for starters caring about someone that tried to do things to you isn't what i'll call normal" i said refering to how we met and what she did after i probably killed someone.
She put a pensive expression on her face then smiled and answered "well my brother would".
We are bringing up makoto sooner than i expected "he sounds naive and so do you, it's not a bad thing but is certainly dangerous" i said while staring at her with a little smile on my face.
"maybe but it's something that runs in the familly we like to see the good in people" she said laughing a little at the end.
then she spoke again "oh we are here..." i stared at her for a moment the looked in front of me, yeah there was an alleyway that looked cleaner that's seems to be a sign that means leaving forgetable.
"well this conversation was nice see you later i guess" i said and turned around i was going back to forgatable for a while longer, i prefeer to find somekind of job before leaving this place.
"hey wait!" i heard komaru say and i turned around to see her.
"can we meet again?" she asked and i just rose an eyebrow we just meet and she is already asking to meet each other again.
This girl is anything but normal... "where would we even meet?".
"well... here seems like a nice place right after i comeback from school, at 7:00 pm" she said chirply and i could only keep staring at her i don't even have a-
The time is 11:34 pm.
Clock... so skill master comes with a clock, wich makes me wonder if it also has my age somewhere in it.
Oh right komaru "i don't make any promises but i'll atleast try to come" i said and wave at her then strated walking away.
"see you tomorrow!" i heard her say, so this is her before the tragedy huh... she is a nice girl.
Forgatable, random alley
Here seems like a nice place to take a nap right next to that big dumpster.
I miss my bed.
Whatever complaining won't help me i just gonna lay on the ground and try to sleep if that doesn't work, i'll try and see if the skill master can tell what my age fucking is!, seriously it fucking bugs me i need to now my age to not make things awkward in the future.
You know because waifus.
I got close to the dumpster and layed right next to it on the ground trying to make myslef fall sleep i closed my eyes and hoped for the best.
...
...
...
This is not working, i opned my eyesand rubed them with my right hand in annoyance sleeping on a bed for most of your life does that to you.
While i'm still laying there i summon again the layout of the skill master i inspected it up and down and noticed the place were it says my name looks like a button, how do i even press it?.
I tried to press it with my hand... didn't work obviously.
Then i imaginated it being pressed that actually worked, don't know how but it worked it opened a menu with my information...
So i'm 16 years old now, 3 years younger than before neat.
I'm 6 feet tall kay.
And i weight... 162 kg the fuck?!.
Oh right my muscle density is ridiculous i guess it makes sense that i weight a lot that will bring a lot of questions when people notice this.
Oh i'm actually a mexican just as before.
I kept reading my info until i somehow feel asleep.
The next day.
Meeeehhhhhh...
I got up and instantly feelt my back poping.
"yeah the ground doesn't make a good sustitude for a bed..." god my back...
I start to bent backwards with my hands together in the air, i was stretching and i heard a louder popping this time, yeah i need a bed.
Okay how do see the time again?... right need to imagine a clock.
The time is 12:17 pm
So another six or so hours before i meet komaru again, and in the mean time i... will do nothing since i have nothing to do so i guess i'm just gonna walk around for a while.
... Where am i again? my sense of direction can't be that bad so i came here from the left and there is where i'm gona meet komaru later and that is like 10 minutes away this forgetable place is bigger than i though.
Maybe i could go to one of the exits and see if i meet another important person of this world okay there was another one behind me to my right close to the one i have to meet komaru so i don't have to worry about getting lost or atleast i hope i don't.
Starting my walk calmly towards my destination and started to think about komaru and what could happen if i got to close to her i'll probably end up dealing with the kids that have a lot of issues and cero solutions except for monaca she seems to have problems way before all of the other kids.
If that were to actually happen, should i do simething about the kids i know that they don't die but could i convince them of stoping?, should i try to find them? i don't know for now.
Heh look at me making plans for the future without knowing if i can even make it that far, ishould first make sure i can survive the tragedy because i'm not calling it by it's full stupid name.
I made it to the other exit and leaned my back against the wall to my left with my hands on the pockets of my hoody and looked at the streets of people making their way to job or school i noticed that they were avoiding this place i supousse that most would be affraid of a place that's filled with hobos even more if one of them (aka me) is standing there.
Everything was fine in the world...
Then i saw something that almost made me scream my lungs out (thanks calm man).
I saw makoto naegi, mukuro ikusaba, kirigiry kioko and junko enoshima talking with each other happilly for most people that would be fine but they don't know what i know.
They were wearing the clothes they would use in hope's peak academy so i atleast know were are they going not that it helps.
I felt "instict" telling me how dangerous kioko and mukuro are understandably a barelly felt anything from makoto but the problem is that i also felt nothing from junko woman that can bring the world to it's heels with just her smarts.
And since "instict" also noticed kyoko as dangerous most likely for her smarts, then how is that junko seems so... harmless? it just doesn't make sense.
My mind was working on overdrive trying to figure out what the hell was going on, then i remembered, alter is this what it means? no i can't be sure but it's a possibility and if that's true...
What ACTUALLY is the timeline that i'm supoussed to change?.
Then i saw that mukuro was turning her head my way and i just kept staring, while most would instantly turn away to not look suspicious wich actually does the exact the opossite of what you expect i kept my eyes looking past them trying to make it look as if i was staring at something else and tried to keep an eye on them with my periferical vision.
I think it worked while i didn't see her narrowing her eyes at me i noticed that she seemed more on edge she either noticed that i was staring or it's her habits as a soldier to always be on guard who knows.
Her... i guess friends? noticed her change, makoto asked her something that obviously i couldn't hear but i'm pretty sure he said "what's wrong?" just because he is that kind of person.
She looked at them and did a mini-smile she told them something and they kept going, while junko and makoto just accepted that kioko didn't she got a little closer to mukuro and they started mutering at each other.
I saw them give me discret looks that i couldn't quite get but i just kept looking at them from my periferical vision, the they kept going.
Well they didn't glare at me so i guess they aren't on my tail but i'm pretty sure their atleast kinda suspicious better than nothing i guess.
I lay my head on the wall and stare at the sky wondering what the shit did i just witnessed, is junko not evil?, my instict told me she is pretty much defenseless atleast as much as makoto, but is this true? i don't know i think i heard something about danganronpa zero were she lost her memories (should have read that thing) but if that was right, why would mukuro would be with her?.
There is one way to find out i have to go to hope's peak academy, but if i'm going to go i'll have to follow someone there and the one's just passed me could notice me, well mukuro could i don't know if kioko, makoto or junko could.
I started to look at the street again waiting to see if another person that goes to hope's peak will pass through here.
Yeah once i find someone i'm going to see if there is a way for me to spy them without meeting with the probably heavy security and that juzo guy and even if i don't find a way to do that i will atleast find out where the most important place in this world is so that's a plus.
And i was just standing there for atleast 10 minutes until i saw someone pass by, and ahoge a school balck suit green-ish eyes, hinata hajime with one of those backpack suitcase looking thing.
Oh well he isn't what i was expecting but he does go to hope's peak so it's okay, time to stalk an angsty teenager obssesed with talent to the point of sacrifacing his own self to get even more angsty and bored.
And his fucking long-ass hair.
I waited for a while trying to find the right distance to follow him after a couple of seconds i got out of the alleyway and followed him from the left side walk while he was on the other one i stayed out of his sight, while other people either ignored me or stared at me affraid or disgusted not that i cared may only objective is to follow hinata not-really-a hyuga.
Ah shit his turning to the right... gotta cross the highway and foolow from the same side walk that could make this stealth mission a little harder, well nothing to lose.
Then i felt a hand on my shoulder not only that but i noticed that there was less people around that before okay...
I turned around and saw two the one in the middle that is grabing my shoulder is bald and the other one to his right was a little over-weight plain dudes, the thing that i noticed about them is their suits so i'm guessing they're yakuza.
Great thanks to these idiots i'm going to lose hinata.
"looks like your kind doesn't get it..." the bald one said angrily, and the hell does he mean by "your kind"?.
I kept staring at them in both anger and confussion "don't play dumb!, we told you hobos to stay in forgetable!" the bald dude told me like it was an obvious thing.
"really? don't remember agreeing to that" i said giving zero fuck's about this.
The big boned dude laughed "hahahaha!, you hobos are like that forgeting things looks like we must remind you who is boss around here".
I couldn't stop myself this two were smiling as if this was gonna go their way, and i just found it funny both of the may be a little taller than me but if "instict" isn't sending me warning signals i knew for a fact that they were not dangerous atleast to me.
"now that would be intimidating if you two were... well intimidating" i said while keeping myself from laughing.
The bald one saw red "shut up you little shit!" funny that he called me that since i'm taller than him. then he threw his right at me hoping to hit me in the head.
That didn't happen, i stoped his punch with my left hand and for a yakuza look alike his punch left much to be desired really that was embarrasing "my turn" i simply said then i did an uppercut with my right.
He was shocked of me blocking his punch then my uppercut hit him and he flew... and i also think i broke his neck, i don't know how far up he flew but i can say that it was pretty high up.
The fat bitch did his best impression of a fish i snapped my fingers to get his attention "hey, take him with you and don't bother me again, got it?" and now he is shitting himself.
He grabbed the bald guy over his shoulder then started running away but before he left too far he screamed at me "yo-you'll pay for messing with the shibusawa familly!".
No...
No fucking way, shibusawa?!.
How many more surprisses am i gonna get from this place?!, seriously what the fuck?!.
Wait calm down, maybe it's not keiji shibusawa yeah there could be others named like him, right?, RIGHT?!.
Ooooooohh... who am i kidding?, if junko is actually... not gonna say good i'm staying with neutral until proben otherwise then i know that the world will throw a guy so badass that has his own dragon style.
Atleast he is not junko...
I have a lot to think about now, guess i'll go back to forgetable ask some of the hobos there about the shibusawa familly and why did they tell them to stay inside forgetable then after that i'll meet komaru and try to find something about her brother and possibly his relationship with junko.
Yeah that sounds like a plan.
I turned around and begun my walk back to what i guess is my home for now.
Forgetable, the center
Now that i'm in the middle of forgetable were i can see most of the hobos are i can finally ask about the shibusawa familly, why is a yakuza familly keeping a group of hobos in here i wonder?.
And almost forgot what our is it?
The time is 4:27 pm
I have... at most an hour to ask questions to the people here then go back walking to meet komaru and hope to god that's just komaru.
Taking a look around at the makeshift houses and the camping ones i was looking for someone that could tell me anything about the shibusawa no one here seemed that special so i walked up to a man in a yellow shirt that didn't have pants but atleast underwear thank god.
"hi, i hadn't been homeless that long so i really don't know what's up around here, so i wonder if you could answer me some questions?" i said politely trying to look friendly.
He looked at me up and down then said "alright kid, shoot".
"well i went to take a walk around and two yakuz-" i started but when i was abou to said yakuza the pantless guy raised his voice interrupting me.
"no!, listen kid it's better if you leave now!" never though a guy in his underwear could sound that dangerous.
But i didn't give a damn, in fact his reaction fills me with even more questions "why? does it have anything to do with the shibusawa familly?" i asked ignoring the threat of the pantless man.
But he refussed to talk and he wasn't the only one everyone was subtly moving away from me, i realized that i wasn't gonna get answers and while i could probably force them to tell me i don't want to punch my way out of all my troubles, so i decided to comply and walked away from here.
But right when i was about to leave and old man with grey hair a fedora and a scarf on his shoulders a grey duster and a brown suit stood in front of me, the expression of his face was easy going he also looked really familiar.
"hey boy, i saw you beat those two yakuza really good power you have there" he said jovially and i was confussed by this dude coming out of nowhere talking to me as if we are best friends.
"wasn't that impressive..., who are you anyway?" i asked trying to remember if i have seen this guy before.
He smiled at me again more charismaticly "i'm bacchus, and i can answers your questions regarding the shibusawa familly".
You now what? i'm not even surprissed abou this people pooping out of nowhere, like fucking bacchus?...
Will i meet kiryu?.
"really?, why would you do that?" i asked honestly confussed as to why he would help me.
"well kid for a chance to train you, what else?" he said as if it was an obvious thing to know.
"train me? that's a weird thing to ask for..." i said honestly confussed by him, i'm no kiryu so i don't know why i would catch his eye.
He tipped his hat at me "because you have a lot of potential as a fighter in you give me three months and i can make you world champ!".
I shaked my head denying it "not really interested in fighting in a ring, but thanks for the offert".
"don't worry about it, look let's leave to a more private place and we will keep talking" he said then pointed behind me i glanced back and saw how most people were staring at us, i looked at bacchus and nodded.
He gave me a smirk "alright boy come with me" and he started walking and i followed just behind him.
We walked for about two minutes and we reached what was apparently the only building being used right now, a gym to be precise by the name of bacchus in big red letters on top of the gym... very original.
"let's get in boy, we can talk all we want in here" when he finished talking he oppened the white door inside i saw a boxing ring on the left netx to the boxing ring there were three sandbags to the right i saw weights of various kind stacked in that thing to stack weights don't know if it has a name, two threadmills and one exersice bike all of it was pretty dusty, like it hasn't been used in a while.
He took a seath on a bench that was to the left on the door we just entered said bench was nailed to the wall "take a seat" i did as i was told and seated at arms lenght to him, to keep it from getting awkward.
"my answer is still no" i said towards the fact that he wanted to train me to become champ of... he never did day of what.
"and that's fine but as a traineer i'll feel horrible for not making the best of your potential i want to see what you can be capable of, that and i'm sure that at some point you'll accept my idea of you in a ring" and he still is happy, gotta admit that bacchus has a really positive personality.
"well bacchus... the name is roberto torres you can call me robert i'll accept your training and let's see if you can convince me to enter the ring" i said with a smile it's hard to say no when someone so optimistic ask for it.
"you will not regret this boy" and he keeps calling me boy, goddamnit.
And now about the shibusawa familly "so about those yakuza...".
He smile dropped a little he still seemed happy but once i brought up the yakuza he was kinda tense "right, the shibusawa familly don't know all the details but the patriarch of the familly came with a lot of yakuza in tow and told everyone to stay inside forgetable, nobody really knows why he wants us in one spot but since everyone is affraid...".
"then no one will do anything about it, well shit i just painted a target on my back" i said with a grimace clear in my face.
Bacchus shoke his head in denial "not really, those two were basically cannon fodder so none will bat an eye for them".
"let's hope that's right" how long have we talked with each other?.
The time is 6:10 pm
Well shit time to go, don't want to keep a lady waiting.
"bacchus this talk was very nice, but i have to meet someone" i said while getting up from the bench.
He laughed "don't worry boy, just be sure to come back here tomorrow at... 3:00 pm" he told me while smiling at me.
"for training, right?" i asked just to make sure.
"of course!, i'll make you a top-class fighter in no time" he sounds so sure of it too.
I was walking towards the door the i stoped, i don't even know what i look like and this gym could have a mirror...
I turned around towards bacchus "do you have a mirror in here?" i asked hoping for a yes.
He nodded and pointed in front of him a door at the end of the gym "yeah there is a full body one in the lockers right next to the showers , why do you need one?".
"just want to see something..." i said as i made my way towards the lockers where i guess they keep clothing and shit.
I entered and saw in the middle of the room two long benches next to one another and there where small lockers at the left, there where three small lockers up and 7 wide it was barelly taller than me to the right there was a door that i guess it's the showers and in the end of the room there was a full body mirror.
Getting close to the mirror i saw... well i wasn't ugly that's good, brown eyes, a normal nose my ears were fine i didn't have facial hair bummer i really wanted a beard, short black hair i looked like a version of the old me but... prettier i guess.
Once i'm done checking my image i left the changing room i saw bacchus looking in my direction "thanks" i said he gave me a thumps up then i left while waving at him.
After that i started walking to where i'm suppoussed to meet miss "normal" komaru.
The meeting place
I arrived 20 minutes early, i just noticed that forgetable is actually a pretty big place like i took a walk of 30 minutes and i'm in just in this exit.
Now i guess i'll just lay against the wall and wait for komaru, i really don't know what to say once we meet but i guess i'll make it ad normal as possible then find a way to ask about her brother and his friends without looking... suspicious.
But why do i even want to do that?, junko doesn't seem to be crazy so no tragedy will happen, why do i care? maybe because i can't accept that junko is good in here?, or because i want to be a hero?.
Just a day in this place and i'm already lossing it and it isn't even junko's fault.
Then i feel my stomach shanking and a deep gurgling sound came from it, right i haven't eaten in a while... god i wish i had money.
"woah... do you have some kind of monster in there?" i heard a familiar female voice, i turn my head to the right and i see her in the same outfit as last time makes sense that is her school uniform.
"well being homeless and poor has it's drawbacks, lack of food being one of them" i reply sarcastically with a smile on my face, i just interacted with her one time and she is already on my good side.
She reaches behind her for her backpack, so unlike her brother she actually carries a backpack instead of a suit case neat, while she grabs her backpack and puts it in front of her and i can see the anime design it was of a woman and some bomb motiffs around her bizarre choice for a backpack.
Then she pulled out... what they call it in japan?, bento? yeah i think that's what is called and extended it in my direction.
"my mom put a little too much in my bento, you can have what's left" she said and while in other circumstances i would have said no right now i'm hungry so i just took the damn thing.
"thanks komaru" i said noticing how she seemed a little surprissed i think it's because calling someone fortheir given name in japan is a sign of trust or something like that.
I opened the bento and saw rice and squid things, maybe it's sausage?, and then the bane of my existence... chopsticks.
I just kept staring wondering if i should throw my image out of the window and eat it all with my hands or eat my pride and ask komaru how to use the damn things.
Noticing that i just kept staring at the food komaru asked me "is something wrong?, you don't like it" oh shit staring at the food would make it seem like i don't like it.
"no it's... i don't know how to use chopsticks" at first i tried to make an excuse but i really couldn't come up with something that wasn't cheesy or offensive.
She blinked owlishly then giggled at my predicament "well we have time, so i'll teach you how to use them".
"i know i should be gratefull, but i also feel some of my pride dying" she laughed at my pained words then grabed the chopsticks and grabed them her first three fingers grabing one chopstick and the other one was at the space between her thumb and index finger and using her last two fingers to keep it from falling.
I couldn't help but grimace that... looked really uncomfortable.
"come on it's not that bad, actually it's easier than it seems" she said then extended the chopsticks at me i grabed them and tried to do the same thing it was as it seemed very uncomfortable but hey i'm grabbing them.
"now close them together to grab food" she is enjoying this way too much.
Doing what she told me i used the chopsticks to grab rice from the bento that i had on my left hand, i grabed the food and saw a slight shacking in my hand then consume the white food.
...
I turned to komaru who was smiling like a proud mother then i said "thank you, it's delicious" and started to eat the food she gave me.
The food was pretty good i was scared that i wouldn't like it and would have to feign that i did but it was very good.
"just helping a friend" she said.
The naegi familly is too good for this world, they must be angels that fell from haven for being more pure than even god that's the only explination for how komaru and naegi are.
I finished the food in record time and gave komaru her bento box back.
"geez, you sure were hungry" well komaru i'm sorry but i haven't eaten anything for a whole day.
"you have no idea komaru" and there it is she seems embarrased again i really should stop calling her name so casualy... nah too much of a hassle.
Komaru was about to say something but i saw something behind her, shenoticed that i was looking behind her and turned around.
Her brother and friends that saw latter today the same four people, said people are probably misenterpreting the situation if the look in the faces of both kyoko and mukuro are anything to go by.
While junko and makoto looked more surprissed than anything else.
OK me you need to make a good first impression "i'm not robbing her".
I heard the face palm of komaru and i knew i fucked that one up.
I did fix stuff here and there so if it wasn't bad then it was mainly because of that i probably will continue if it is recibed well.
If no one likes it, that's okay i never planed for this one in particular to go far.
