Day Two

The next morning, Ragna woke up by the sound of the door ringing.

('Huh?') he thought as he slowly got up from his bed, "Yawn….. Is someone calling?" he thought as he drags his legs on the floor. The doorbell rings again. "Yeah, I hear you!" he says as he picks his coat and opens the door, revealing that the one that was calling him is none other than Maizono.

"Sayaka?" he asked, stretching his arms.

"Hey, Ragna! Good morning!" she says with her famous smile.

"Yeah, good morning.~"he says letting out a yawn.

"Are you okay? Is 9:00 am on the morning already," she says.

"...Again?" he places a hand on his temple. "How did I miss the announcement again?"

"Huh? You didn't hear it?" she asks in confusion.

"I think my TV announcement is damaged." he says, coming out of his room and closing it.

At that moment, our favorite bear appears, "Yep! That's right!" Monokuma says, "For some reason, I can't make the morning announcement in your room, which is weird since I can do the nighttime announcement on it." he disappears again.

"...Well, that explains it." Ragna says, putting his coat on. "Sorry to make you worry Maizono," he says.

The Idol puff her cheeks as she gives him an angry face, "Ups, sorry Sayaka!" he quickly waves his hand in defense.

She makes her smile in minutes, "I was just messing with you."

Moments passed before Ragna slap himself, blushing in embarrassment, "Just fall for that, good job Sayaka."

Maizono chuckles at him, "Hehehehe, like little brother, like older brother I guess."

"Very funny," he says, patting her head and making her blush a little while chuckling, "Okay, I'm going to eat breakfast now, see ya." he was about to walk away, but Maizono stop him.

"Oh! How about I make you breakfast?" she says, "I made breakfast to Makoto yesterday and he liked it!"

"Really? You cook?" he asked, hearing this for the first time.

"Of course!" she says.

"If Makoto says is great, then I would love to try it." he told her, making her happy.

"Great!" she says before wrapping her arm around his, "Let's go!" she pulls him away.

"H-hey! You don't need to pull!" Ragna says.


Moving to the dining hall, Ragna took a seat as Sayaka went to the kitchen and began cooking. While Ragna waits for the Idol to finish, someone came into the hall. The Daredevil turns to it to see the Ultimate Programmer walking in, scratching her hand.

"Ouch…..Oh, hey there Sparda," she says, noticing the white haired.

"Hey there Fujisaki," he greets her. "Why are you scratching your arm?"

"Oh, that…. W-well, it was a mosquito," she says, walking up to him.

"A mosquito?" he raised his eyebrow.

"A mosquito bites me last night." she says, sitting on the chair with him.

"How bad is it?"

"Really bad, here." she says, showing Ragna a big red bump on her pale skin arm.

"Holy Cow! Are you sure it was a mosquito?" he asks, surprised.

"Yeah, Makoto asks me the same thing." she says.

"You saw Naegi?"

"Yeah, he asked me why didn't smack it away."

"Wait, wait, wait, wait…." he stops the Programmer, who looks at him. "Let me guess….." he took a deep breath and-

"You say that you didn't smack it because you think that mosquito must have a family to feed, so you let it suck your blood."

Fujisaki had winded eyes, "H-how did you-?"

"Cause I'm an esper." he says.

"Really? You can read my minds?!" the programmer says with excitement in her eyes.

"Nah, I'm kidding, I just have a good intuition." he says as he stretched his arm to her, "Here, show me your arm."

Confused, she gives him her arm, she watches as Ragna place his hands together and started to make some strange signs with his hands, finishing with a clap. Suddenly, Fujisaki saw something amazing, the Daredevil release an aura that made his eyes turn white and both his hair and coat started to float around.

He then places his hands on the red bump and started to caresses it. A small light glow on the arm. Everything went back to normal, Ragna returns to normal. He removes his hand from the arm, revealing that the red bump is gone.

"Woah!" the programmer shout in excitement. "What was that?!"

"Is something I learn on my travels," Ragna says, "I used it for a worse-case situation on me."

"That's so cool!" she says with stars in her eyes, "Is this like some sort of mysterious power?!"

"Yeah, let's go with that."

"That is something amazing! It can heal anything?!" she asks.

"Ahh…." he puts a finger on his chin, "Well, maybe like a broken bone or a wound, but that's it." he then puts a thinking pose, "Although to be able to do that I have to do crazy things."

Fujisaki looks at his in curiosity as he explains all the things he did so that he can be taught, from alligator fighting to be butt naked in the woods. The programmer was left speechless.

"Amazing…. You really are the Daredevil…." she says.

"Yeah, I know that…. Anyway, if you feel that the bump gets red again, come to me and I'll treat it right away," he says.

"Mhm! I'll do that, thanks, Sparda," she says.

"Please, you can call me Ragna, I'll allow it." he says with a smile.

"O-okay, then see you later Ragna!" she says running out of the hall with a cute animal smile.

('...I don't know, but I have a creepy feeling go through my spine right now.') the white haired though.

"...Still been a softy I see." Ragna turns back to see Maizono coming out of the kitchen with a bowl.

"I'm just helping a fellow classmate with a problem.… Nothing amazing." he says as she places on the table the bowl.

"Yeah, you always been like that," she says, sitting on the chair Fujisaki was.

Ragna picks up a spoon and starts to eat the food, his eyes widened. "Wow! This is good Sayaka!" he started to eat more of it.

"Hehehe, I did say that I can cook." she says with that mysterious smile that can melt any heart.

Ÿour going to make a great wife," he said, making the idol blush out. After eating all the food, Ragna says thanks to Maizono as he lies back to rest a bit. Seeing the opportunity, the Idol decides to ask a question.

"Hey, Ragna?"

"Yeah?"

"Do you have a girlfriend?"

At that moment, Ragna fell from his seat, he quickly sits back, blushing on his cheeks. "W-where did that question come from?"

"Huh? You're embarrassed?" she says, putting a sad face, "Does it mean you do?"

"N-No, I don't!" He responds to her.

"Then how about a crush?" she asks.

"Okay! Where is this going Sayaka?!" he went to the points.

"Oh nothing, just curious," she says with her ever-loved smile, "Is it bad?"

The Daredevil blushes, "N-No.… is not." he scratches his hair.

"...Aren't you going to ask me?" she asks.

"Huh?"

"If I have a boyfriend?"

('Jeez Christ! What is going on?!') he thought, "...Do you have a boyfriend?" he asks.

"Surprisingly, no." she says with her smile.

"What? Not even one?" Ragna was very surprised to hear that she doesn't have a boyfriend.

"No," she looks up into the ceiling, "The truth is, I have been too busy to care about that."

Ragna stood silently before asking another question, "Then, do you have a crush on someone?"

She looks down with a little pint of pink on her cheeks, "Well…. There's someone I'm interested in." she says.

"Really now?" he asked.

"Yeah... He can sometimes be easy to read and his brother loves him a lot, he always has this luck of his that just makes me want to be with him," Sayaka then blush, "And he has a smile that always makes me smile."

At that moment, Ragna's mind remembers something important that happened in the school that he, Makoto and Sayaka went, he mentally slaps himself.

('Of course, I would forget this! She always looks at Naegi ever since she saw him and me taking that crow away, technically Makoto did the hold thing, but I make sure that he didn't try to attack anyone….. I'm really becoming an idiot.') he thought.

"However," Sayaka's voice brought Ragna's attention back. "I must put those feelings aside for now. Getting out of here is the first priority," she says.

Ragna nods, "True, what's the point being interested in someone if you just stay here?" he says, "We have to get out of here."

The Idol nods, "That's right!" she says, "Let's get out of here….You….Makoto….and me."

A small smirk appears on the white-haired face, "Yeah, let's do that." he stands up from his seat. "And when we do, I'll help with all I can to make sure the person you're interested in notice you."

Maizono looks at him surprised, "Y-you will?" she asked in surprise.

"Anything for a friend," he says, stretching his arm at her. She looks at the hand before standing and taking the hand.

"Then, I will be counting on you….Don't give your back on me," she says.

"Don't worry, I never turn my back on a friend, especially one that's important to me." he says.

"Hehehe….I'm glad to have you and Makoto here…"


After that, Ragna and Sayaka went there separate ways, Ragna went back to his room because his bed was getting smelly, so he decided that is time to clean them up. Moments later, he walks into the laundry room with the bedclothes and put them on a washing machine. As he waits around, he investigates the room one more time, finding two Monokuma's coin, before sitting on the chair and started to think about the kidnappers, just how in the world they managed to capture him? He could have felt any intent of kidnapping, been a daredevil needs a sixth sense you know, so it doesn't make sense that he was captured this easy. Before he could continue, a new voice appear.

"Hi, Rag~na! What are you doing?"

Ragna looks to the side to see Junko Enoshima.

"Oh, hello Enoshima." he greets, "I'm just washing my bed clothes."

"Really so?" she says, standing next to him.

"Yeah, have to clean it up once in awhile, you know." he says, standing up from the chair and walking into a machine with drinks.

"...You know, you're different from what I imagine." the Fashionista says. Ragna turns to look at her, "I expect you to be….. more 'Wild', giving your talent."

"Heh, I can't blame you there." he smirks, picking the drink he ordered.

"So…. Are you, like, one of those guys?" she asked.

"Hmm?"

"You know, those types of guys that picks up girls."

"Oh…. Don't worry, I'm not like that…. I'm sure of it."

"...Well, that's good. Glad to know that you're not like the jerks on the streets." she makes a disgusting expression while being angry.

He looks at her from top to bottom, "Well, you are a supermodel, there would be guys that will be attracted to you."

Enoshima looks at him in surprised, "You too? You do know the pain I'm going? You're a sharp one Ragna!" she says, relieve and happy.

"I guess…." he says, ('Is common sense, beautiful girls will be attracted to men's)' he thought, taking a sip of his drink.

"So…. What's your type of woman?" she suddenly asked, making the white-haired to spit out his drink a little.

" *cough, cough, cough* What do you mean?"

('Huh…. That's new…') "I mean, what's your kind of woman? Aggressive? Silent? Funny? Maybe wild, I guess that a possibility since you're a Daredevil." she started to rant.

"Uhh, I don't even-"

"Oh, don't worry, I can present you a friend of mine when we get out, I bet she would love to have someone like you," she says with a smile before leaving.

"...What just happened?" was the only thing the confused boy could say. "I….guess we get to know each other a little?"


After washing and putting back the bed's clothes to his room. Ragna decided to spend the two Monokuma's coins in the Prize Room, when he got there, he could hear a voice that sounds really annoyed. He enters the room and saw Leon Kuwata, he was very angry while standing next to the Monomono machine.

"Dammit! A pointless one again!" the baseball player shout.

"What's going on Kuwata?" Ragna ask.

The red-haired turns around "Huh? Oh, hello, Sparda. Just using this machine here." he says, scratching his hair.

"And the shouting?" the white haired ask.

Leon sighs, "Well…. I wanted to see if I can win a microphone."

Ragna raise an eyebrow, "A microphone?"

"Yeah, I need for my voice practice, a rock star must know his voice, right?" he says.

"Rock Star? Aren't you the Ultimate Baseball player?"

"Umm….about that, I'm going, to be honest," he took a deep breath before saying the true, "I hate baseball."

"...Huh?"

"You hear me, I hate baseball! I never wanted to play something like that, I mean, is so easy, anyone can do it!" he says, before starting to say how he didn't like the practice, standing around smelly players, running around the field for three hours.

"Woah, you really hate it." the Daredevil says, very surprised from it.

"Damn right bastard! Especially since they beg me to cut my hair, well not anymore! When I got the invitation to go to this school, I drop the team, and enter right away!" the baseball player says.

"And if I understand what I heard, what your wearing, and since you're looking for a microphone….. I believe you want to be a…. Ultimate Rock Star?"

The red-haired looks at him in surprised, "Woah! You're right, I want to become the Ultimate Rock Star!" he says raising his fist. "Is my dream to take over the world with punk music! I will change the music industry with it!"

('I see…. So his has a dream that has nothing to do with baseball…. Well…. playing baseball is just his talent.') hethought.

"And then, that girl on the hair salon will go out with me!" he says.

"Huh?"

"I meet this girl on this hair salon, she told that she dates musicians or rock stars." the red-haired says.

('...On second thought, maybe I should just understand him better….') he thought again.

"So what brings you here?" Leon ask.

"Oh, I want to find a clock," Ragna says.

"A clock? Why?"

"The morning announcement isn't getting to my room." he says, looking at the display around the room.

"Huh…. Well, bad news man, there are no clocks in here, I double-check around." Leon says.

"Really….." Ragna looks at the machine, "Well, better spent it on the machine."

"I wouldn't do that if I were you," Leone says as Ragna places one coin on the machine, "The only thing is throwing are just rings." Ragna turns the handle. "Is the only thing-"

"*Pop!*...Hey, look! A clock!"

"Huh?"

Leon looks at the white haired hand and saw a black alarm clock with Monokuma's face on the inside.

Kuwata's jaw drops, "What the hell?! Why did you get a clock?!" he points his finger at him.

"Luck, maybe?" the white haired puts his second coin.

"'Luck' my ass! I spent ten coins and all I got were this rings!" he shouts, showing several red rings. "All I want is a microphone! Why it can't come out?!"

"Oh hey, a microphone." Ragna won a microphone.

"Are you serious!?" the baseball star says with bloodshot eyes.

"Here Leon, you can have it."

"Why did you… wait, what?"

Ragna throws the mic at him, which he catches in surprised. "You said that you need one, so you can have it."

"A-are you sure? Don't you wanted?"

"No, I wanted is the clock." he says, holding the clock.

"Jeez, thanks, Sparda!" Kuwata says.

"No, problem…. Good luck on becoming a rock star." Ragna told him as he walks to the exit.

"Appreciated." he says, walking out with him, "When it's done, I'll let you hear it so you can tell how is it."

"Sure, love to."

With that said, they both went to their rooms.


On the Daredevil's room, he was checking that the clock works, the alarm sound perfectly, it has the time right. He took out the toolkit, opening it and started to work on it, making sure it's safe for anything or there's a camera on it. After two hours, he didn't find anything, before he could put it back together, his doorbell ring. Standing up, he went to open the door and reveal Makoto Naegi on the door.

"Hey Mak, coming to see your old bro?" he asks the brunette.

"Yeah, just passing by." the brunette says.

"Then come in." he says, allowing Makoto to come in.

"What are you doing?" the brunette ask his brother while looking around the room.

"Just investigating this clock here," Naegi looks at the table and saw several clock parts.

"Why are you checking a clock?" he asks the white haired.

"Apparently, the morning announcement doesn't reach my room," Ragna thumbs the TV on the wall, "So, I went to find a clock. I won it in the Monomono machine."

"And why is that clock on the table?"

"Making sure is not hack."

"Ah," he says before noticing the gaming device, "Huh? Why do you have a game device?"

"Won it on the Monomono machine," Ragna says, putting back the clock together.

"And can you use it?" Makoto ask.

"Not now, I need a TV and check that it's not tampered." he says as he puts back the bell.

"I don't think Monokuma would let you have a TV," Makoto says.

"I know," he puts the clock back together. "That's why I would make one."

"Huh?" the brunette looks him confused, "And just how you're going to do that?"

"Eh, I would need several materials, which they will be here," he says before turning to him. "Anyway, you came here to chat, so let's do that: how's Komaru?"

At hearing his sister's name, Makoto's face drop, a dark cloud appearing on his head, "As teasing as ever I believe?" the white haired says with a sweat on his head.

The two brothers talk for a while, they laugh, they act surprised, before Makoto stood and left, saying that nighttime is about an hour and is better to take a bath. Ragna though as well, so he said goodbye to Makoto before going to the hall and check the time and put it on the clock.

It was obvious that the two of them had a good time. The night announcement came and everybody went to sleep.


Day Three

The next morning, the white-haired woke up by the sound of the alarm clock. Placing his hand on the stop button on it, he got up from his bed.

"Yawwwn….. Today is another day." he groggily says. He walks into the bathroom to do the things one do in the morning. As he was finishing, his door ring, causing Ragna to look confused.

('Who is it? I'm pretty sure that I woke up at 7 am.') he thought as he walks out from the bathroom, picking his coat and went to open the door. Ragna open's the door to reveal the Ultimate Moral Compass.

"Good morning! Is such a fantastic day today!" he came in, shouting.

"Taka?" Ragna asks in confusion.

"Ragna Sparda! Could you please meet up at the dining hall?" he asked this.

With a raised eyebrow, he asks,"Why?"

"I have been thinking lately…. And I decided we all need to come together," he says.

"...What do you mean by 'come together'?" he asked with suspicion.

"From today and on, we must all have breakfast together, so could you please head to the dining hall?" he says again, before walking away.

Still, in confusion, Ragna puts on his coat and made his way into the dining hall. Once he got there, everyone was seated. So, he took his seat.

"Now then!" Taka commences speaking, "Thanks for taking your time to come here." He then commenced to discuss how he felt that they all must commence trusting each other, so from now on, all of them must now eat breakfast every morning. With that said, they all eat their breakfast before they started to discuss their situations.

"Situation?!" Leon says, "I check top and bottom, all I found is nothing!"

"Yeah, here too," several grunts of denial came after that.

"Is hopeless," Fujisaki was about to cry, "We are trapped in here, we'll never get out!~"

"There, there Fujisaki," Hina place a hand on the programmers back, "Help should be arriving soon," she says.

"Why is that?" the Fashionista ask the Swimmer.

"Well," Hina places a finger on her cheek, "We have been trapped in here for three long days, our families must be sicked worry," she then makes a salute if a soldier. "The police must be looking for us as we speak!"

"Uh, hate to break it to ya' Hina," Ragna spoke up, "but I don't think that's going to happen."

"Huh? And why is that?"

"Allow me to answer that!"

At that moment, Monokuma appears on the side of the table, causing several students to stand up from their seats.

"Are you guys seriously putting your fate on the police? Do you know what role those blue chickens fill?" the bear ask. "I'll tell you: they're good for being a foil against a villain or an anti-hero!"

"What the hell do you want, bear freak?!" Oowada asks with rising anger.

"Well, your new lives started two days ago, and no one has started to kill," he looks down with disappointment. "I'm getting bored of just watching you all."

"There's no way you can make any of us kill each other," Makoto says with hope.

"Hahahaha!" Yasuhiro started to laugh.

"Why are you laughing?" the baseball player ask the fortune-teller.

"I'm just impressed that they continue with this act," Yasuhiro says.

"...You're still there?" everybody (yes, everybody; the jerk, the gothic, and even the freaking bear) ask him.

"Anyway," the look at the crazy bear, "I figure out why no one has killed, I forgot a very important thing!"

"Wh-what are you…" Makoto stutters.

"I forgot to give a motive!" Monokuma shouts, "So, I would like for everyone to head to the record room immediately! I have a video of the outside for all of you!" with that said, Monokuma disappears.

"Wh-what did he mean by 'outside'?", Fukawa ask.

Everybody wanted to know that as well, so is better to just look at it.


-Record Room-

Everybody enters inside one by one, inside a box were disc, each of them label with their names. Surprisingly, Ragna had one for him, which was very weird considering that the Naegi family was his. Maybe they copy the video?

Anyway, they all put the disc inside, equip their headphones and listen to the record. Let's focus on Ragna and Makoto.


The first thing that appeared was none other than the Naegi family, all of them giving a big smile while sitting on the sofa.

Naegi's mother: "To have not just one, but two sons enter Hope's Peak Academy, is so wonderful!"

Naegi's Father: "I'm proud of you Makoto, and Ragna, I know your father would be proud of you, just as I am."

Komaru Naegi: "Makoto! Ragna! Good luck in there!"

At first, all that Makoto and Ragna did was smiled, Makoto for knowing that he have people who believe in him, and Ragna he had people who care about him after his parents die. Then, they turned their face into serious, they know this video isn't over. And they were right…..

At that moment, the screen turns black, and then…..it appeared, an image of the house where the family was…. It's now destroyed.

Makoto pupil turns small and Ragna's turn into plates. No words could come out from their mouths as 'his' voice pop out.

"Makoto Naegi and Ragna Sparda….two brothers, not by blood, but by bond, both accepted into Hope's Peak Academy. And a family, who support them with everything they have."

"It seems that something has happened to this well-being family! Just what happened to them?!

After his voice finished, words pop out on the screen.

LOOK FOR THE ANSWER AFTER GRADUATION!


Makoto slowly took his headphones out, his face completely paled, and Ragna was trembling with anger. Can't you blame them?

The two of them look at the others, one by one, they all react in their way, but they all wanted the same thing….. They all wanted to get out of here….. They all must get out of here….Yes…. They are having the feeling to get out…. They are feeling…..Despair….

Of course, there were those, who were completely calm, like Kirigiri and Celestia.

"I see, so this is what he meant by motive." Kyouko started to say, "He's fueling our desire to get out so that we can start killing."

"A prisoner dilemma you could say," Celes says.

"Nooooookoo!" Maizono shouts, her face showing true fear on her face as she stands up and hits the wall. "Why….. Why is this happening?! What did I do to get this?!"

"Hahahahaha!" Monokuma appear on the screen on the front, "Looks like I did the right thing to do this!"

Kirigiri stood up and finally ask the most obvious questions,"Who are you? What do you want from us?"

"Hmm, what do I want? Easy!" the bear then said his true motive.

"All I want…..is Despair. That's all."

Sayaka couldn't take it anymore as she runs out of the room, screaming.

"M-Maizono!" Makoto shout, standing up and running after her.

Ragna stood up as well and went after the two of them while hearing Monokuma's laugh on his way out.


Sayaka ran and ran. She needs to get out…..wait, let me re-praised that: SHE NEEDS TO GET OUT NO MATTER WHAT!...How's that? Good? Great!

She suddenly felt someone grabbing her on the arm.

"Let me go!" she says, starting to trash around.

"Maizono! Get hold of yourself!" Makoto shouts, trying to get her calm down. Maizono continues to trash her arms around, "You need to stay calm, help must be coming!"

"No they're not!" she shouts, "No one is coming to save us!" she finally managed to push him off, causing Naegi to fall. The idol runs away before disappearing on a corner.

"Sayaka…." Makoto stutters as he stands up. At that moment, Ragna walks up.

"Ragna….you don't believe it, do you?" Makoto says as he turns to him, "You don't believe something happened to them, right?"

"..." the Daredevil stood silent for a moment, "...I know how it feels to lose a family."

Makoto eyes turn paled, "You-?!"

"Let me finish." Ragna takes a deep breath before speaking, "Is hard, super hard….. And because of that, I want to find out what's happening out there." A fiery aura started to come out. "I do want to know if this is real or not…. So, I have to get out of here and find out," he says with a determined face.

He raised his hand up and looks at his brother, "No….. We have to get out of here…..All of us!" he makes a cocky smile, "Are you with me, Makoto?"

Makoto looks at his brother, he can feel the determination coming on him, he wants to get out, but with him. Even after seeing a video with the possibility that their family is gone, Ragna still looks forward. Sure, he's scared of losing another family, but he wants to find out that is true by his two hands. After that, how can he say no? With a nod, he takes the hand and grips.

"Until the end…..we are going to survive this!" the brunette says.

"There's the Makoto I know!" Ragna says. Suddenly, a white aura comes out of Makoto and a red aura comes out. "No matter what happens, we are going to get out!"

"We will not let Despair consumes us!" Makoto says with determination.

"We will bring Hope into this nightmare!"
