"Hey. Wake up. I said wake up. FUCKING WAKE UP!"

I rose my head from the desk and stared at the face above me. It was a girl, about the same age as me with long red hair. She was wearing a white short sleeved shirt with a blue collar and also had a black piece of cloth hanging on her neck. "Who are you?" i asked. In a split second and with a single swoop she was wielding a katana which was next to my neck, lying on my shoulder. "You go first." she said. "Uh... okay, i'm Antonio." she said. "I'm Swani." she said. She let the katana off my shoulder and put it on her back. "Why do you have that?" i asked. "Because, i'm the Super High School Level Ninja." she said.

Swani

"Wait a minute, your an Ultimate too!?" i exclaimed.

She looked at me for a few seconds. "Who are you?" she asked once more. "I'm Antonio and i'm known as the Super High School Level Author." i answered. "Oh yeah, i remember reading your book Frozen Night a while back. Didn't you get like 90,000 copies sold in an hour?" she asked. "120,000." i answered. I looked around and realized that we were in a class room. The lights were dim though and the windows seemed to be blocked off so i didn't notice at first. "Uh, where are we?" i asked. "Oh, well... a boat." she answered. "Yeah. I woke up outside and found this on the floor." she said as she pulled out a slip of paper. It was some type of map of a cruise ship. We were on the top deck where we could see the sky and there were 3 decks below us, B Deck, C Deck and D Deck.

"So why are we here?" i asked. "I don't know. All i remember was falling asleep while trying to take a selfie in the bath and i woke up here." she answered. "Um, why were you doing that in the first place?" i asked. "Uhhhhhh, no reason." answered Swani. She crept over to the door and gestured me to follow. I picked up my bag from the side of the desk and noticed something glowing inside the outer pocket. I pulled it out and found a small tablet labeled "Monopad". "Hey, what is this?" i asked. Her eyes widened and she looked at her pocket. She pulled something out to reveal another one. "What the? Cmon let's just get outta here. Maybe it's a free tablet to apologize for knocking us out." she said.

But as soon we walked outside, we realized nobody was apologizing.

"AHHHHH!" i yelled. I fell back and it's glowing red eyes stared at us. A giant exosuit with several red glowing eyes. It slashed it's arm at me and i quickly ducked. But Swani didn't. She pulled the cloth back over her mouth and gracefully jumped into the air. She slashed her katana and sparks flew from the robot's arm. The robot slashed with the other and Swani's katana flew over the side of the deck and into the sea below. I saw Swani stand there defenseless just as the robot slashed. A puff of smoke and she was gone.

"What the? Well i guess i'll just capture you instead." said a voice from inside the robot. I slowly walked backwards as the robot approached. Suddenly it's eyes flashed black and i watched as Swani appeared from on top of the robot holding a dagger in one hand and a few wires in another, smiling. "Alright so now what?" i asked. "Well we should probably find-

I never got to find out what she said as i heard the voice. We looked to the side and found a big monitor on the wall outside the classroom. It switched on and static appeared on the screen. "Ahem, everybody who can hear this, welcome to the SS Despair! Please report to the conference room near the suites above deck!" said the voice. The monitor switched off and we watched as the exosuit in front of us spark. We were about to leave when it jumped out. "AHH! WHAT THE HELL!?" i exclaimed. Standing in front of us, on top of the exosuit was a bomb. A big black bomb with a timer set to 10 seconds and counting. We screamed and dashed away from it, down the side of the boat. "Look! The conference hall!" exclaimed Swani.

We looked back and the bomb was gone, but the exosuit was back up and chasing us. We continued running till we saw it. A double door with the label "conference room" above it. We dived for the door and flew through it, hitting the cold hard floor. We got up and saw them. 14 othters.

The room was a bit smaller then a gymnasium but still decently big. There was a podium at the end and 14 other students were standing in the room, looking at us. "Who are you?" one asked. "Ugh some more losers. Can i just know why i'm here so i can leave?" another guy asked. "I wonder. Were you chased by some robots too?" asked another. "Ye... yeah. Some weird robot chased us here." i answered.

"So who are you?" i asked. "Well i... i'm Yuna, people sometimes call me the Super High School Level Baker if they're not bullying me." said a short one. She was small, short and had short brown hair. She was also wearing a yellow shirt with pictures of cupcakes on it with a black skirt.

I stared around at everybody else. They were all just looking at each other, confused. "Wait. Did all of you randomly fall asleep and wake up here?" asked Swani. Everybody nodded.

Then, we heard it.

"Upupupupupupu!"

A weird demonic voice bounced through the room and we looked around for the source. We heard a beep and looked over to the podium at the end of the room. It clicked and suddenly it appeared. A figure came up from behind the podium, flew into the air and landed back down. The figure wasn't a human but didn't seem like any kind of animal either. Wait...

The shadows disappeared to reveal a bear, half black and half white with a black eye over the white on the left and a red jagged eye on the black side on the right. The left half of it's smile was normal, the other half was evil. "Upupupupu! Welcome young students to the SS Despair!" yelled the bear. "AH! IT CAN SPEAK!" yelled one girl. "It's probably just a robot." said a guy. "I may be a robot but i am also your headmaster, Monokuma!" yelled the bear. "What do you mean headmaster? I'm going to Hopes Peak Academy in a week." said a girl. "So am i!" said Another. "Same!" yelled a guy in the back. "Wait a minute. I am too!" i said. Swani looked at me. "Well Hopes Peak Academy has chosen one class for a special opprotunity! Instead of going to Hopes Peak Academy, you'll be staying on our cruise ship equipped with a school the SS Despair!" yelled Monokuma.

This place... was a school? That explained the classroom but...

"Wait. Isn't the headmaster of Hopes Peak the Ultimate Hope, Makoto Naegi?" i asked. "Yeah he should be. He sent an email to the new students a week ago." said a girl. "Well. Makoto is currently occupied..."

Saihara's POV

"MAKOTO, HAJIME RUN!" i yelled. We dashed through the snow and we spotted them. "Komaru and Kaede are just up ahead!" i yelled. The monokuma bot slashed at my side and blood splurted from my waist. "Cmon! Keep going!" yelled Makoto. He helped me up and we kept running with the Monokumas chasing us. "Where's Nagito when you need him!?" yelled Hajime.

Antonio's POV

"So while hes busy with his "trip" i'll be taking care of you students right now. But first, it's time to begin the new killing game!" yelled Monokuma. My skin turned pale and i felt cold. Adam told me about the killing games...

"The killing games were horrible. They trapped 16 young high school students with their lives ahead of them in some kind of secluded locations and turned them into killers and ended almost all their lives. If it wasn't for the current headmaster of hopes peak... we wouldn't be alive today." he had said.

"What? What are you talking about? What the hell is a killing game?" asked some girl standing in the front trying to turn on her phone. "Well basically you 16 students will be staying here for the rest of your lives!" announced Monokuma. "WHAT!?" we all yelled. A girl with long blond hair broke down in tears and fell to her knees. Swani gasped and immediantly ran over to comfort her. "Wait a minute, can't we just jump off the boat and escape?" asked one guy. "I wouldn't suggest that. Haven't you noticed your new, clothing?" said Monokuma. We all looked at ourselves and noticed it. We were all wearing black and white wristbands. "Haven't i seen this before?" i asked. "If you've ever learned about the Tragedy of the Future Foundation then maybe!" exclaimed Monokuma. "Some stupid little bracelets ain't gonna stop us from escaping!" yelled one guy. He started running towards the exit before Monokuma appeared.

He appeared in front of him and the guy ran into the wall and tripped. "Let me demonstrate what will happen if you try to escape. I have captured a friend of one of yours to use as a demonstration for the bracelets." said Monokuma. The wall on the side disappeared to reveal a glass tube on the other side. He was inside. "ADAM!"
