Chapter 1: The Murder Games begin; Idol's Secret:
Author's Note: Okay, so here's the new and improved (slightly) version of Danganronpa: Another Female Makoto Story. So, this one has more plot than the one that I wrote on a whim, so I hope you enjoy this one more than the other one.
So, I will try and update as regularly as possible. I'm going to try updating every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It's a more likely probability that I will most likely be updating on Friday's though. I changed up some other genders and deaths throughout the plot.
Aside from those, some of the original plot might seem rushed or seem like I'm missing things but, that's because school is hectic even if it's just began. I'm trying really hard to do a lot of things, I probably won't have much time for soon. With me failing 9th grade back in 2015 so, I'm trying really hard here to try and graduate with my class of 2018. If anything I'll still end up graduating with the class of 2019.
But, if anything once again, I'll be still updating these story much to everyone's delight.
Summary: Makoto wakes up in an empty classroom with no recollection to how she got there in the first place. Now, stuck inside with no way or no way to connect with the outside world, her and 15 other students must attempt to try and escape this horrible life of mutual killing. Perhaps, she might even find love somewhere along the way of all the betrayal and hurt in this world. What's a girl to do in this situation?
Disclaimer: I don't own anything. All credit goes to the original owners of the game. I only own, the genderbent characters.
Now, that all the really important stuff is out of the way…
ENJOY THE STORY!
Naegi Makoto woke up to a pounding headache and a dull throb in the back of her neck. Sitting up, she gazed around the room with hazy and unfocused forest green eyes. Her eyes eventually focused and adjusted to the dimness of the room, and she scanned her surroundings for anything to help her figure out where she was.
'The windows are locked and bolted closed…' She thought looking around more. 'And…'
Her thoughts trailed off as her eyes slid over, and landed on a white folded piece of paper, lying innocently on the floor, not too far away from her.
"What's this?" She asked herself outloud, picking the paper up and flipping it over. "Head over to the auditorium by 8:00 am."
Looking around, she spotted the lone door in the empty room, wide open. With a small gulp, she began to head to the door and out of the tiny classroom.
'Well, here goes nothing…' She thought looking around once more before closing the door behind herself.
Walking around a bit, she soon arrived at a big set of doors. Tilting her head, she caught the sound of multiple voices floating around on the inside of the room. Opening the door, she managed a quick scan of the room before someone jumped into her line of sight.
"You're late!" A bushy eyebrowed teen yelled at her, she jumped back startled by the sudden accusation. "It said to be here by 8:00 am. And, you are a minute late!"
She blinked, as a nervous smile stretched upon her face as she comprehended what he was talking about.
"You're talking about the note, right?" She asked, to which she gave a firm nod in her direction.
"I'm Ishimaru Kiyotaka Super High School Level Moral Compass." The loud male asked, eyes locking with hers to show a questioning gaze. "That's right, and what might your name be?"
"Naegi Makoto, Super High School Level Luckster." She introduced bowing slightly before he walked away. She soon let out a startled yelp, as she found herself face to… chest with a tall blond boy.
"Where the Hell are we?" He asked loudly, ice-blue eyes glancing around, obviously annoyed. "Do you have any idea cutie?"
Naegi blinked, eyes wide as she stared at the taller male in shocked awe.
"How could you tell…?" She stuttered quietly. Of course she was shocked. She was used to people just assuming she was a male.
"I'm Enoshima Jun, Super High School Level Model." He said giving a cool smile. "And you, are adorable."
Blushing a bit, she squeaked and tried to give a proper answer before, giving up and bowing her head slightly to hide her face.
"I-I'm not adorable," She mumbled pouting a bit. "My name is Naegi Makoto, Super High School Luckster."
"Cool." He said before turning and leaving. "See you around, Nagi-chan."
Looking around, her eyes widened when she saw a familiar pair of aqua-blue eyes searching as well. Her feet began to carry her before she could even comprehend what she was doing.
"Maizono-san?" She called, just loud enough for him to hear. It obviously caught the other off guard. "Maizono- Saito-san?"
"Naegi-san!" The older teen called walking closer to the small girl. "Is that really you Naegi-san?"
Nodding her head, she felt relief that she wasn't alone here in the school with complete strangers and she gave him a cheerful smile. Her smile faltered, as a thought hit her suddenly.
"You actually remember me?" She questioned. She elaborated further, seeing his obvious confusion at the question. "I mean, you've only been in one class with me once and, you were the most popular boy there… and I was little ol' normal me…"
The boys confused face turned into one of shocked-hurt as he looked at his former classmate.
"You think I'd be that shallow?" He whispered before shoving his face into his hands and hunching his shoulders slightly. "How cruel…."
"I-I didn't mean it like that!" She stuttered before hearing a quiet chuckle. "Huh?"
"Joking!" The blue haired male chuckled again, louder this time.
"Don't tease me like that!" She sighed, placing a hand on her chest looking down. Soon they both broke into quiet laughs.
"Are you two done flirting?" A cold voice asked as the duo turned around to face the voice.
"And, who might you be?" Maizono grunted, a frown pulling at his lips almost immediately. Naegi snapped her fingers in remembrance, gazing at the figure with slight jealousy and awe.
"I remember!" She said, mentally grumbling. "You're Togami Byakuya, Super High School Level Heir. You're family's company just bought that whole oil company…"
He nodded his head, looked around the room while surveying everyone, and sniffed once more before walking away with crossed arms and a mighty air around himself.
"Why were we all brought here?" a small girl asked with her hands pressed against her chest. She had wild fluffy brown hair and yellow-green eyes filled with tears.
"Upupupu…" Everyone heard a childish voice giggle all around them. It resonated around the giant auditorium, making the group look around the room for the sound source. "I brought you all here!"
They heard the sound of a machine wiring from the little podium standing in the middle of the platform in front of them. The top of the podium opened up and a little black and white bear popped up from it.
"I'm the Headmaster of Hope's Peak Academy." It said standing on it's little legs. "Stand, bow, be seated."
"Hai!" Ishimaru cried, bowing perfectly in half. "Stand, bow, be seated."
"D-Don't listen to him….!" A girl with glasses and long braided hair cried jumping back and covering her head in shock.
"Hai, now to tell you why you've been brought here…" the bear made a bow of his own before standing again with a crazy glint in his lone red eye.
"A stuffed toy bear is telling us what we have to do?" A female with fiery red hair and electric blue eyes gaped opening at the scene. "And, one of us is crazy enough to listen to it….?"
"I'm not a stuffed bear…" the little toy waved it's paws wildly. "I'm a handsome headmaster named Monokuma."
'Okay,' Naegi thought, alongside everyone else, sweat dropping. 'It just called itself handsome… I'm dubbing it, a he.'
'Now, time to see how much fun this game is going to be…' He thought staring at some of the students with glowing red eye and a sinister shake of the shoulders. 'I wonder who will do what and if they can see the hidden yet.'
"Now, time for roll call." He said, not disturbed in the slightest at their dumbfounded looks on their faces.
"Enoshima Jun-kun; Super High School Level Model." He began looking at a clipboard, he mysteriously pulled from nowhere.
"Hoi…" the blond answered uninterestedly, picking at his nails.
"Kuwata Lola-chan; Super High School Level Baseball Player." He giggled looking up briefly to survey the room.
"Yeah, I'm here…" the red haired girl from earlier said, pushing a bright lock of hair behind her ear.
"Fujisaki Chihiro-san; Super High School Level Programmer."
"H-Here…" The small girl with the fluffy hair murmured so quietly, it wouldn't have been heard in a real classroom and not a room filled with people too terrified to speak. Her yellow-green eyes looked around filling with tears of fear.
"Oogami-san; Super High School Level Martial Artist." He continued, feeling himself mentally count the idiots just losing brain cells from just thinking this over.
"Here." A big muscled figure said from Naegi's right, and the girl felt herself tremble as she stared at the taller figure. 'If things could overpower anything, then that's the one you need to look for….' She thought crying animatedly as she continued to steel her nerves.
(A/N: They don't know Oogami true gender yet btw! :D)
"Ehem!" The bear cleared his throat to get their attention from the giant. "Maizono Saito-kun; Super High School Level Idol."
"H-Here." Saito said looking around as he shifted foot to foot.
"Togami Byakuya-kun; Super High School Level Heir." the roll call continued on.
"Tch. Here." the aforementioned blond sucked his teeth as he glared at everyone in the room icily.
"Fukawa Touko-chan; Super High School Level Book Worm."
"H-Here!" the girl with glasses and braids squealed, locking eyes with Makoto briefly, before she ducked her head quietly mumbling to herself.
"Yamada Hifumi-kun; Super High School Level Otaku."
"Here…" an overweight teen said, wiping his furiously sweating head rapidly. For some reason, Makoto felt the right to be very nervous around this one…
"Ludenburg Celestia-chan; Super High School Level Gambler?" He questioned not looking up.
"Right here, thank you very much." A girl with a gothic attire stated twirling a piece of raven black hair around a pale finger. "And please, call me Celes."
"Hagakure Yasuhiro-kun; Super Highschool Level Shaman." The bear continued as if he wasn't just interrupted with small chat.
"N-Nice to meet you?" a male with ridiculously large hair said with a nervous smile and sheepish wave of his hand. 'Is his hair naturally that big or does he gel it or something?' Naegi thought tilting her head slightly as she looked up at him quizzically. 'And, just how many times did he fail this grade?'
"Oowada Mondo-kun; Super High School Level Gang Leader."
"The fuck do you assholes think you're all staring at?!" A male with a funny hairdo snapped, making Makoto take a step back her face filling with fear as she trembled next to Maizono quietly.
"Ishimaru Kiyotaka-kun; Super High School Level Moral Compass?" the bear continued not missing a beat.
"Right here!" Ishimaru said looking around with intense red eyes. "And, ready to work with you all."
"Asahina Aoi-chan; Super High School Level Swimmer." the way the tone sounded made Makoto wonder if this was all recorded.
"H-Hai…" a girl with a funny looking pony tail said, looking around uneasily. "I hope to get along…"
"Naegi Makoto-san; Super High School Level Luckster." She felt an ironic sense bitterness towards the label they gave her.
"Here…" She said so quietly, everyone nearly missed it, even in the quiet room.
"Kirigiri Kiyo-kun; Super High School Level Detective?" He said as if it was a suspicious name itself. Looking around she noticed a male with purple hair that she hadn't noticed before.
"Here." He stated face blank and stoic, pushing a strand of lavander hair behind his ear. Their eyes locked briefly and something seemed to flash across the taller teens eyes but, it was gone as soon as it came.
"Nice to see you're all here!" The bear laughed making Makoto wanna hide in a hole and never come out. "And, the reason I have you all here in the first place is to play in my School of Mutual Killing Game!"
Everyone's blood turned to ice as they stared in front of them, not wanting to believe what he just said as true but, being unable to differentiate it from anything else. The bear gave another laugh and she felt her stomach start to churn a bit.
"And, to kick start things right off the bat," He said looking around. "Let's give you a motive and see who starts what! Please meet me in the A/V room."
Looking at one another, the students uneasily shuffled through the hall and towards the room marked A/V room. Once all there, they all took a seat at their designated seats and stared at the monitors, feeling dread pool into their stomachs. Lifting the headphones, Makoto felt her eyes widened upon seeing her family sitting in the living room appear on the monitor.
"Mako-chan," Her mother began, smiling as sweetly as ever. "We're very proud of you getting into Hope's Peak Academy."
She smiled, feeling her chest swell and throb with something painful, as her eyes watered slightly. ''Kaa-chan…' was her only thought at the moment as she let her mother's praise roll in her mind.
"Onee-chan," Her little brother said smiling and waving at the camera. "Continue doing what you do best. Don't change who you are! Mako-neechan is best when she stays who she always has been."
'Kotaru…' She thought feeling the painfully throbbing in her chest increase as the tears fell and trailed down her eyes.
"Hey, princess you're really making us proud." Her father said, gruff laugh bubbling from his mouth. "Keep it up and don't study too hard. Remember, the best way to a man's heart is through your wonderful cooking, sweetheart. And, I'm a cop remember that."
"Daddy…" She murmured, hand covering her mouth as he shoulders shook with suppressed sobs.
"What a family…" She heard Monokuma's echo around the headphones. "Waiting for their one and only daughter to come home but…"
The happy picture suddenly changed to her living room looking wrecked and her family nowhere in sight. She felt her breathing pick up the pace as she stared at the scene.
"Are they really truly still there?" The bears childish voice giggled. "Waiting for the one at school?"
Makoto felt a shrill scream tear from her throat as the video ended. Leaving her sitting there screaming. She felt arms grab her as everything blacked out around her.
'Home… Have to get home…' She thought, struggling against the arms holding her tightly. 'Kotaru… Mama… Daddy!'
"Naegi," she heard a voice close to her ear. "It's okay, stay calm."
She felt herself slowly come to a stop as the world returned around her and her breathing went back to normal. Makoto felt her eyes droop with exhaustion as the arms supporting her tightened comfortingly, making her relax to a degree. She felt all of their 'classmates' eyes on them as they sat in the center of a protective circle.
"It's going to be alright." The voice said, her mind slowly processed to it be a familiar male voice. Slowly, her eyes locked onto a pair of aqua blue eyes looking at her from above.
"Maizono...san…" Was all she could mutter before she blacked completely. Body and mind tired, she let everything fade away, not noticing the idols hidden smile.
