I don't own Danganronpa
After the events of the previous day Shuuichi was deep in thought. He couldn't help but think that there was something fishy. Why was he able to interact with Hajime and Makoto. Why were they even in a killing game in the first place. What motives would the mastermind come up with next. Luckily he had his friends but would that be enough. Would they even stay alive until the end or would they die like Kaede and Chihiro.
He was pulled out of his thoughts when he heard a familiar ping from his pocket. Someone had texted him.
Group chat: 'ahoge squad'
Makoto: help
Makoto: me
Makoto: save me
Shuuichi: what's wrong?
Makoto: Nagito
Hajime: ?
Makoto: he made a group chat with me
Makoto: and its just him talking down on me and himself
Shuuichi: sounds fun
Hajime: not really
Shuuichi: yeah yeah
Makoto: I tried to block him
Makoto: but it only works for that chat and then he makes a new one
Shuuichi: wow
Hajime: I guess you have no other choice but to endure it
Shuuichi: I just HOPE he doesn't make another weird chat
Izuru: He already did.
Hajime: eh really?
Izuru: With me.
Izuru: He is constantly praising me. It's annoying so I ignore him.
Makoto: good choice
Hajime: for once
Shuuichi: so what are you two doing today
Makoto: exploring the next floor
Hajime: exploring the third island
Shuuichi: ha same
Makoto: what kind of areas id yoi find?
Shuuichi: a floor that looks like its possessed by ghosts
Makoto: sounds like fun
Hajime: yeah fun
Makoto: though I would probably be too scared
Shuuichi: sounds like fun
Makoto: …
Shuuichi: also Tenko got her research lab
Shuuichi: im not allowed inside tho
Shuuichi: wel I am but I get beat up
Hajime: that souns like her
Hajime: the island I got is also a bit spooky
Makoto: a bit?
Hajime: yeah
Hajime: abandoned hospital
Hajime: abandoned night club
Hajime: abandoned motel
Shuuichi: sounds lively
Makoto: Shuuichi is in joke mood
Shuuichi: sorry
Hajime: no probs
Hajime: there is also the thing Hiyoko made for Mahiru
Hajime: it looks more like a cultist thing than a shrine fo remembrance
Shuuichi: yeah that's spooky
Hajime: and there is also a abandoned cinema wit h a mobie
Hajime: made by Monokuma but I bought my way out
Shuuichi: how
Makoto: with monocoins?
Hajime: nah real money
Hajime: I have ot pao once the game is over
Shuuichi: wow
Shuuichi: you arent very smart
Hajime: ...
Makoto: we got more classrooms
Makoto: and a game room
Shuuichi: that's great
Shuuichi: oh no
Hajime: what
Shuuichi: angie found het research lab
Shuuichi: its covered in black splotches
Shuuichi: I hope its paint
Hajime: haha
Hajime: we also have a garbage electronic dump
Hajime: kazuichi is gong crazy
Makoto: I bet Chihiro would have liked that
Hajime: but hes not even in my game
Hajime: so stop feeling sad
Shuuichi: agreed
Shuuichi: well at least I got some good news
Shuuichi: Monokuma is in a vegetative state
Hajime: hows that possible
Makoto: it's a robot right
Hajime: controlled by the mastermind
Shuuichi: actually this Monokuma is an AI
Shuuichi: but he does obay the mastermind
Izuru: I would not recommend celebrating though.
Shuuichi: we aren't
Shuuichi: we're treasuring these preciaous moments
Hajime: that's great
Makoto: speaking about AI's
Makoto: we just found one
Shuuichi: huh?
Hajime: tell us
Makoto: hina said she saw a ghost but it was actually the AI
Makoto: Chihiro had modelled it to look like him
Hajime: where did she find it tho?
Makoto: the public bathhouse
Shuuichi: what was she doing there?
Makoto: looking for donuts
Makoto: don't ask me why she was looking for them
Hajime: huh
Makoto: oh and I also found a art room and a machine
Hajime: what kind of machine?
Shuuichi: ?
Makoto: uhm\
Makoto: one that cleans the air from outside
Makoto: apparently the outside world is too polluted to live in
Hajime: huh but here it is as clear as day
Shuuichi: strange
Makoto: I know
Makoto: oh and I got a motive
Hajime: already
Shuuichi: that's quick
Makoto: its just that if you kill someone and get away with it that you get money
Shuuichi: who will fall for that?
Hajime: not me
Makoto: yeah me neither
Makoto: but maybe someone will
Hajime: lets HOPE not
Shuuichi: guys I found a secret hidden room
Shuuichi: with a super computer
Shuuichi: its still broken tho
Hajime: meybe that inventor can fix it?
Makoto: another thing Chihiro would have liked
Shuuichi: don't be sad
Shuuichi: he couldn't have seen it anyway
Hajime: yeah
Shuuichi: I also found a flashback light but kokichi took it away
Makoto: what do you think youwilll remember?
Hajime: well if Izuru is right it si probably fake anyway
Shuuichi: I just hope it is something useful
Makoto: thou I doubt that
Hajime: why?
Makoto: I don't know the mastermind just seems like the person that likes to built some supsence
Shuuichi: right
Hajime: well even if it helps just a little bit it si better than nothing
Makoto: right
Shuuichi: well I have to go to the dining room to figure it out
Hajime: tell us if you find something
Shuuichi: iw ill
Makoto: well hajime anything one your end?
Hajime: uhmmmmmmm Nagito is free?
Makoto: yeah I figured that out already
Hajime: mikan likes the hospital stuff
Hajime: but this hospital thing gong on creeps me out a bit
Makoto: why?
Hajime: why would there be hospital stuff if we weren't sick
Makoto: are you thinking that some sort of illness will start spreading
Hajime: Monokuma has done impossible things before so it wouldn't surprise me
Makoto: what do you think Izuru
Izuru: Think what?
Makoto: do you think that Monokuma would be able to spread an illness?
Izuru: He might. If he can he will do it.
Hajime: that doesn't bring me HOPE
Makoto: are we gonna type it like that now?
Hajime: yeahhh
Shuuichi: im back
Makoto: and?
Hajime: what is it?
Shuuichi: I remembered my own funeral
Makoto: huh that's strange
Hajime: yeah
Hajime: how can you remember that
Makoto: I mean if you are at youre own funeral you have to dead
Shuuichi: I know
Shuuichi: but it was really strange
Shuuichi: it wasn't from my perspective
Makoto: that is odd
Izuru: Another point suggesting that these flashback lights are fake.
Shuuichi: yeah
Hajime: have you tried to suggest that to the others yet?
Shuuichi: no
Shuuichi: im scared that it will lead ot my actual death
Makoto: why
Shuuichi: if the mastermind is in this game it means that they can get rid of me
Shuuichi: and since Monokuma and the monocubs are controlled by an AI the killing game can continue if the mastermind is dead
Hajime: you mean that there is a chance that there are people outside influencinh the game as well
Shuuichi: I hadn't thought about it like that
Shuuichi: but it certainly is a possibility
Makoto: well if the game will continue with the same trend it will take a few days before the first people start dying
Hajime: and lets HOPE we can stop it before that happens
Shuuichi: yeah\
Shuuichi: how are your clases doing as a grouo now
Shuuichi: I mean since maki has been revealed as a assassin everyone has been on edge
Hajime: that's understandibel
Hajime: here I have the feeling that we are slowly growing apart
Hajime: these murders have been stressing people out
Makoto: same here
Makoto: not that we were close anyway
Shuuichi: well at least im friends with Kaito
Hajime: even after that whole love hotel fiasco?
Shuuichi: s-s-shut up!
Makoto: tsundere
Shuuichi: yeah
Shuuichi: we get along great
Hajime: that's nice
Hajime: I got Chiaki
Hajime: shes sweet nice lovely funny and an amazing person in general
Makoto: she sounds great
Shuuichi: yeah
Shuuichi: just hope she doesn't end up being a murderer
Hajime: well im not you shuuihci
Hajime: I wont lose my love interest like that
Makoto: I don't even have a love interest
Shuuichi: believe me
Shuuichi: you will have one soon
Makoto: thanks?
Hajime: back to chiaki
Hajime: I don't think that there is any other person wo could compare to her
Izuru: No one can compare to her.
Hajime: see evn Izuru agrees
Makoto: have you met her
Izuru: briefly
Shuuichi: she must have left a strong impression if she had that effect on you
Makoto: yeah
Makoto: and we can add another thing to the list of similarities between you two
Shuuichi: im desperate to prove that the two of you are related
Hajime: …
Izuru: …
Izuru: We aren't related.
Makoto: I know its more like you are the same person
Hajime: no
Izuru: Actually, it is spot on…
Shuuichi: WHAT?
Hajime: NO WAY!
Makoto: it was just a joke…
Shuuichi: Izuru explain yourself
Izuru: no
Hajime: does this have to do with my talent?
Izuru: A bit.
Shuuichi: I have a couple theories..
Makoto: share them please
Shuuichi: well Izuru did reveal that he was 'made'
Shuuichi: so one of my theories is that he is some sort of clone of Hajime
Shuuichi: and was then trained to have so many talents
Hajime: why would I want a clone tho
Shuuichi: I have other theories as well
Makoto: oh share them peas
Shuuichi: another is that Izuru is some sort of modified hajime
Hajime: explaoin
Shuuichi: well Izuru could be Hajime that has undergone some sort of experiment to gain talent
Hajime: but don't I have a talent already
Makoto: yeah otherwise he wouldn't be at hopespeak
Shuuichi: yeah I don't get that either
Shuuichi: but they are only theories
Hajime: yeah
Hajime: it is quite the shocker tho
Makoto: yeah
Makoto: is one of them right Izuru?
Izuru: …
Hajime: that could be interpreted many ways
Shuuichi: lets keep this quiet from the others
Makoto: yeah we wouldn't want Nagito to find out
Hajime: brrr im shaking by just thinking about it
Shuuichi: yeah
Shuuichi: that wouldn't be nice
Makoto: why did he have to come here
Shuuichi: yeah
Shuuichi: but be glad that Kokichi isn't here as well
Shuuichi: that would be torture
Hajime: yea
Hajime: why are there so many difficult people
Shuuichi: to make our life harder
Makoto: I mean it is kind of like we are in a fictional universe
Hajime: o gosh yes
Hajime: that would be funny
Shuuichi: that would be cruel
Shuuichi: why would you enjoy watching people get killed
Makoto: you have your detective books
Shuuichi: that's different
Shuuichi: those are fictional
Makoto: well we were thinking about a situation in which we were the fictional people
Shuuichi: I would be horrified if that happens to be true
Hajime: you're a weird one
Shuuichi: how
Hajime: youre logic is twisted
Makoto: maybe its culture shock
Shuuichi: that might be
Shuuichi: but it is still weird
Hajime: true
Makoto: right
Makoto: are you guys getting tired
Shuuichi: yeah a bit
Hajime: I mean it has been a long day
Shuuichi: true
Shuuichi: maybe its time to sleep
Makoto: night/
Hajime: gooooood nighttttt
Shuuichi: children
Izuru: Mom friend?
Shuuichi: go to bed
Izuru: I never left.
Shuuichi: …
Shuuichi: night
After skipping training with Kaito, Shuuichi went to bed. He was tired. During the last couple of days, a lot happened. But that is not all, he can't stop thinking about what Izuru had said. Hajime was Izuru. But how? There were more questions than answers and if he came up with an answer more questions would come. Not only that, he seems to get in more discussions with the others. They are still friendly, but he was sure that if they continued like that they might become a little less friendly. Was it really just culture shock? Or was there something else going on? Not only that but Angie was starting to act weird as well. While he was pondering these many thoughts he slowly fell asleep.
When he awoke the next morning, he went to the dining hall and ate breakfast with the others and then went on with the day hanging out with various people. While he was hanging out with some of them he received a message.
Group chat: 'Smart people'
Shuuichi looked at his screen in confusion. He didn't know about this chat. He quickly clicked on members and the others in the group were: Nagito and Izuru. Huh, well this is bound to be interesting.
Nagito: well hello
Shuuichi: why is this a chat
Nagito: it is just a group for us smart peole
Nagito: I have read over all of the text in the main group chat and concluded that you are smart enough to be in this group
Shuuichi: thanks I guess…
Nagito: no need to thank someone as worthless as me
Shuuichi: please don't do that here
Nagito: but I do think that I am quite smart
Nagito: especially compared to many of the tother
Izuru: Well he's not wrong.
Izuru: I guess that we are considered the smartest out of everyone that has found the chat.
Nagito: yes this is the place for intellectual conversations
Shuuichi: that's nice I guess
Nagito: well then onto our first subject
Shuuichi: this is starting to sound like a school presentation
Izuru: He probably prepared everything he was going to say.
Nagito: …
Shuuichi: well what is this first subject
Nagito: well I read that you like mystery novels
Shuuichi: yessss!
Izuru: Well that enthusiasm came out of nowhere.
Nagito: I do quite like mystery novels as well
Nagito: maby we can talk about thme
Shuuichi: yes please
Nagito: well then have you read the basics
Shuuichi: well of course all of them
Nagito: and which is all of them
Izuru: I'm leaving.
Shuuichi: bye
Shuuichi: well of course all sherlock holmes related things
Shuuichi: and Agatha cristie
Shuuichi: and much and mauch more
Nagito: who are they?
Shuuichi: what!
Shuuichi: you don't know them?
Nagito: no
Nagito: maybe different world thing
Shuuichi: huh
Shuuichi: at first glance our worlds seem very alike yet when you really start looking deeper you realize that they are in fact very different
Nagito: yes
Nagito: very odd yet extremely interesting
Nagito: I can only hope to learn new things from you
Shuuichi: well thank you
Shuuichi: then what do you consider the basics?
Nagito: the novels inspired by the not so well known Kirigiri family
Shuuichi: explain
Nagito: well they are this big group of detectives
Shuuichi: ah yes makoto mentioned one of them
Nagito: yes
Nagito: they have been around for many years and have inspired many writers
Nagito: those books are simply fascinating
Shuuichi: sounds interesting
Nagito: but it still interests me why one of them turned away to become headhamster of a school
Shuuichi: what do you mean
Nagito: one of them left to become headmaster of hopespeak
Nagito: I got to talk to him once
Shuuichi: this certainly is interesting
Shuuichi: how this Monokuma take him over
Nagito: well that certainly is an interesting question
Nagito: but im sure htat after this dip of despair hope will grow anew
Shuuichi: if you keep talking like that you will never make nay friends
Nagito: lowlife like me doesn't need something like friends
Shuuichi: yes you do
Shuuichi: otherwise you wouldn't have made this group chat
Shuuichi: and you wouldn't have done research into getting my attention
Nagito: wow
Nagito: you really are the ultimate detective
Shuuichi: thanks!
Nagito: you also seem to be able to handle complimetnts better now as well
Shuuichi: tansk
Shuuichi: I do my best to improve after Kaede died
Nagito: you have only known her for a couple days
Nagito: how can you feel so sad after know her for so little time
Shuuichi: I guess we just really clicked
Shuuichi: but now that I think about it is a little over the toop maybe
Shuuichi: but I cant change how I feel.
Nagito: that is completely understandable
Nagito: but I simply cant understand how you feel what you fieel
Shuuichi: have you every lost someone precious to you?
Nagito: my dog
Nagito: and my parents
Shuuichi: they must have meant a lot toyou
Nagito: it just because of my luck
Nagito: it tends to bring disaster and they tries to apologies for it with extreme luck
Shuuichi: that must have been difficult
Nagito: well I have always lived this way
Nagito: so I don't know any better
Shuuichi: my parents haven't really been there for me either
Shuuichi: sometimes I feel like they just forgot about me
Nagito: haha
Nagito: how can they forget such an amazing person as yourself
Shuuichi: they are too busy with their own things
Nagito: it seems that we are more similar than i had originally thought
Shuuichi: you are quite different as to how Hajime had described you as well
Nagito: how did he discribe me?
Shuuichi: as an obsessive stalker
Nagito: well i have been following him
Shuuichi: why would you follow him
Shuuichi: it freaks him out
Shuuichi: or did you want to become his friend
Nagito: he just interests me
Shuuichi: so you wanted to be his friend
Nagito: if you could call it that
Nagito: we used to be able to get along great
Shuuichi: I heard
Shuuichi: maybe you should stop acting so obsessive and start to be a little nicer to him
Shuuichi: and yourself
Shuuichi: then things might get easier
Nagito: thank you
Shuuichi: no problem
Shuuichi: this also works for you Izuru
Shuuichi: if you wan to be friends you have to be nicer as well
Izuru: I didn't ask for advice.
Shuuichi: sometimes I don't either but sometimes you just need it
Nagito: good advice
Nagito: ill try
Nagito: your an amazing person Shuuichi
Shuuichi: I'm not
Shuuichi: i just have some experiences
Nagito: now lets continue talking about those books
Shuuichi: sure lets do that
After talking to Nagito about his books for a little while he starting wandering around the school for a little while. While he was doing that he heard some rumours about a student council that Angie had created. And if he knew one thing it was that it wasn't good. Apparently some of the others students had joined as well. They say that it was to preserve the peace of the school and prevent any more murders from happening but he knew that murder couldn't be prevented. Rules just made way for more complicated murders if Makoto's game was anything to go by.
When the evening came he went to train with Kaito and surprisingly Maki as well. Apparently he had invited her so make her a friend and to prove that she wasn't as dangerous as Kokichi claimed. While he was a bit apprehensive at first he eventually quite liked it. It was nice that he wasn't the only one that did the exercises anymore. Even if she was way better at it than him.
When he went to bed he wanted to tell the others what he had learnt.
Shuuichi: hey
Hajime: yo
Makoto: how was your day
Shuuichi: interesting to say the least
Hajime: yeah same here
Makoto: yup something relly weird happnedn
Shuuichi: explain
Hajime: im curious
Makoto: well you know the ai we found
Hajime: yes
Makoto: well we brought taka to talk to it
Makoto: it was very emotional
Makoto: alter ego transformed its face into mondo
Makoto: and taka got white hair
Shuuichi: that makes like zero sense
Hajime: yeah
Izuru: Actually it does.
Makoto: explain
Shuuichi: please
Izuru: When one misses someone to a large extend and they in some way or form 'meet' this person again it can switch something in the brain which causes a dormant gene to awaken and gives the person white hair and red eyes.
Makoto: well he already has natural red eyes
Hajime: so that wasn't obvious
Shuuichi: it still doesn't make much sense tho
Makoto: it does
Hajime: yeah
Izuru: I have to agree with the two above.
Shuuichi: it really doesn't make any sense
Makoto: different world thing
Hajime: who knowszz
Shuuichi: guys
Shuuichi: really
Hajime: yeah
Hajime: sounds about right
Hajime: so what happened with you Shuuichi?
Shuuichi: Nagito made a group chat with me a Izuru
Makoto: oh dear
Makoto: that sounds bad
Hajime: yup
Shuuichi: actually it isn't
Shuuichi: it is a group chat for us intelligent people
Shuuichi: and he is a pretty interesting person once you get to know him
Hajime: huh
Shuuichi: he just wanted some friends
Hajime: that's kinda sad
Makoto: yeah meaybe we should be a bit nicer to him
Shuuichi: yeah do that
Shuuichi: oh and not only that but Angie created a student council
Hajime: why do i ave a bad feeling about this
Makoto: because if they make rules the killer has to be more creative
Shuuichi: exactly
Shuuichi: not only that they are pretty strict already and they've just formed
Hajime: be careful
Shuuichi: I will be
Hajime: well here things have been interesting here as well
Hajime: I mean fuyuhiko came back from the hostipal
Shuuichi: thasts great
Hajime: then had to be brought back in because he cut open his stomach
Makoto: why?
Shuuichi: maybe it's a mafia thing
Hajime: that's about right
Hajime: now we are going to have a party to celebrate his release and acceptance of the group
Shuuichi: hopefully this doesn't end up like the last one
Makoto: yeah that would be bad
Hajime: haha
Hajime: but that's not the only thing that has been interesting me
Hajime: i mean soda has been in the junkyard for hours and still hasn't left
Makoto: well it seems he really likes it there's
Hajime: I'm happy for him
Hajime: he is a nice dude
Shuuichi: he seems like someone youcan trust
Hajime: that was what i was thinking
Hajime: too bad he has an obsession with miss princess
Makoto: like a lovesick puppy?
Hajime: pretty much
Shuuichi: that's funny
Makoto: well we have one too
Makoto: but his is probably a little more violent
Shuuichi: ?
Makoto: genocider
Hajime: wow
Hajime: yeah that could end up yandere style
Shuuichi: yeah pretty much
Shuuichi: we don't have any of that here
Shuuichi: unless you count Tenko after Himiko
Hajime: i think that countas
Makoto: yo
Makoto: its just a little less straight
Hajime: like a circle
Shuuichi: ha
Makoto: on the topic of genocider
Makoto: have you continued that book yet?
Shuuichi: i forgot all about that
Hajime: well that's bound to happen when so much is going on
Makoto: i forgive you
Shuuichi: but I'm still wondering
Shuuichi: why would a mastermind want us to play a killing game
Makoto: and why be such a stickler to the rules
Hajime: and in Shuuichi's case participate themselves
Hajime: i mean you would only do that if you have a death wish
Shuuichi: but that's the strange thing
Shuuichi: you would think that but then why did Monokuma specify that only those who were forced into the killing game would die when the first motive was announced
Izuru: Even I have to admit that, that is quite strange.
Makoto: its kind of like everything was planned in advanced
Makoto: like the mastermind is sure that they wont die
Shuuichi: but how can you be sure about that?
Hajime: like Makoto said
Hajime: everything would have been planned
Izuru: That would mean that the mastermind has incredible manipulation skills.
Izuru: I don't think that I would be able to do such a thing.
Makoto: but wont things start to make sense as well
Shuuichi: what do you mean
Makoto: did Kaede know that the murder video would play?
Shuuichi: i doubt it...
Shuuichi: wait
Shuuichi: then how was she able to plan her murder
Shuuichi: her plan was really reliant on that music
Hajime: that's so strange
Hajime: maybe she knew the mastermind?
Shuuichi: somehow that would make sense as well
Shuuichi: i mean when Rantaro died she acted like she knew she hit the wrong one
Hajime: but how could she have known that
Makoto: wow there is some conspiracy stuff going on
Izuru: It would explain some things, but we can't jump to conclusions.
Shuuichi: i know
Shuuichi: and i do hope that this isn't the case
Hajime: yeah
Hajime: but I somehow get the impression that Shuuichi's situation is way more complicated than ours
Makoto: yeah
Makoto: it really does seem like he is from another world
Shuuichi: then how are we able to contact each other
Makoto: well Hajime and i are in different times completely and i find that more impossible than to talk with someone from a different world
Shuuichi: haha true
Makoto: what I find interesting is the reason why this usami decided to have us interact
Hajime: prolly because she wants us to make friends
Shuuichi: you think that's just it?
Shuuichi: no extra hidded motives
Hajime: who knows
Hajime: I only know that this works to our advantage
'You have received a new message in 'danganronpa squad'
Shuuichi: now that I think about it where does the name Danganronpa even come from?
Makoto: I don't know
Hajime: ?
Group chat: 'danganronpa squad'
Maki: just what is this?

Shuuichi: that will create ultimate sadness
Hajime: speaking from experience
Tenko: yes
Shuuichi: yup
Makoto: poor you two
Tenko: yes pity us

Nagito: maybe ill go too
Shuuichi: it would be a great opportunity to talk to other people
Makoto: yeah and don't act too strange
Tenko: good luck
Hajime: I hope Ibuki made some good music
Makoto: it would suck if the ultimate musician couldn't make music
Shuuichi: yeah
Maki: why are you guys like this?
Shuuichi: to get over the paoin of losing those precious to you
Maki: …
Makoto: and to create theories on what is going on
Shuuichi: yup
Shuuichi: evn if I don't like them
Makoto: you mean the one about Kaede
Shuuichi: yea
Maki: explain
Shuuichi: just theorizing that Kaede knew the mastermind
Maki: that wouldn't make sence
Maki: she seemed pretty desperate to free us
Shuuichi: yeah
Shuuichi: but they are only theories
Tenko: lets not think like that of the dead
Tenko: respect them
Makoto: yeah let's do that
Hajime: o welp
Tenko: what is it
Hajime: akane is getting attacked by Monokuma
Shuuichi: what
Shuuichi: how did that happen
Hajime: she picked a fight with him
Makoto: that's not gonna end well
Hajime: nekomaru protected her
Shuuichi: from what
Hajime: a fatal attack
Tenko: thank goodness
Makoto: how is he doing?
Hajime: badly
Hajime: Monokuma is taking him to the hospital
Shuuichi: it seems like a lot of people are ending up in there
Nagito: no
Makoto: what do you mean no
Nagito: no one ended up in the hospital
Hajime: nagiot fuyuhiko was in the hospital
Nagito: I never saw him there
Hajime: you saw him there
Makoto: this is weird
Shuuichi: its lik he s lying
Tenko: like he became kokichi
Maki: don't mention that pest
Tenko: sure….
Hajime: well lets just sleep on it
Nagito: but im not tired
Shuuichi: I agree with Hajime
Tenko: yeah me to
Maki: good night
Makoto: night
When the next morning came Shuuichi immediately knew that something was going to happen. Nagito was acting strange last night and there is the whole thing he heard about the student council. Would they officially announce their presence today? Would there be a new motive? Or did someone already die? He hoped not but he had nothing to say about it. He did wonder what kind of motive would be introduced. The monokubs seemed pretty eager to have everyone get along. Would they have a motive to make friends or something?
Then he heard the morning announcement. The monokubs wanted everyone to go to the gymnasium. Was he right about a motive being introduced?
He hesitantly made his way to the gym, while ignoring the beeps that came from his monopad.
In the gym there was a new motive announced. A Necronomicon that had the instructions to bring one of their dead classmates back to life. He knew that would be impossible but the monokubs had done some strange things before. Also, the student council made their first official appearance. They would ignore the monokubs and Monokuma and make their own rules. Angie even destroyed one of the flashbacklights to prove her point.

Shuuichi: I think she joined for Himiko
Hajime: huh
Shuuichi: they also covered up the manhole
Makoto: ooh
Shuuichi: and angie destroyed a flashback light
Izuru: Well they were probably fake anyway.
Shuuichi: true but still
Hajime: that must be a bit oppressive
Shuuichi: that's not all
Makoto: let me guess
Hajime: a motive
Shuuichi: yeah
Shuuichi: we got this Necronomicon
Hajime: a what?
Makoto: probably something mysterious
Shuuichi: it has the intstuciont to bring one of our dead classmates back to life
Hajime: that sounds pretty fake if oyu ask me
Makoto: if only it did work
Shuuichi: yeah we thought the same
Shuuichi: but maybe angie will try it
Shuuichi: anything happening on your side makoto
Makoto: the AI disappeared
Hajime: who took it?
Makoto: I don't know
Makoto: probably either taka or hifumi
Shuuichi: but theu both deny it
Makoto: yeah but they were fighting aobut it yesterday
Hajime: that does make them suspicious
Shuuichi: but then someone could use that to their advantage
Makoto: yes that is what im worried about to
Hajime: also lets HOPE that Nagito doesn't start textig
Shuuichi: can you please stop doing that
Hajime: haha nope
Makoto: but yeah
Makoto: Nagito typing now would be a bit confusing
Shuuichi: just when he started warming up to us
Hajime: you actualy likes conversing with him?
Shuuichi: a bit
Shuuichi: it is a bit different than talking with you two
Hajime: how so?
Shuuichi: I dunno prolly because ther is a little more brain invoveld
Makoto: are you calling us stupid
Hajime: he is
Shuuichi: well you couldn't figure out 11037 said leon
Shuuichi: so I don't think you two are the smartest out there
Hajime: ahahaha….
Makoto: well I have to admit that that was a bit
Makoto: stupid
Hajime: oh shush if we were from like England we could have figured that out as well
Shuuichi: you might say that now but somehow I doubt that
Hajime: …
Izuru: I agree with Shuuichi
Makoto: yeah metoo
Hajime: guys!
Hajime: but somehow all this action makes me scared
Makoto: I get what you mean
Makoto: everythime things start to happen someone ends up dead
Shuuichi: but without things happening we wont get out eiter
Makoto: well I got some good news too
Makoto: but I doubt that it is important
Hajime: well what is it?
Shuuichi: ?
Makoto: its nothing much but a few days ago
Makoto: Hiro heard some sounds on the roof
Makoto: maybe its help truing to get inside
Shuuichi: that would be nice
Hajime: finally something good

Makoto: well lets just hope
Shuuichi: for now lets just sleep
Hajime: agree
Makoto: yes
Shuuichi: night
Hajime: sleep tight
Makoto: have no fright
Izuru: …
Izuru: Mr. Wright
Makoto: who's that?
Hajime: no idea
Hajime: hey guys?
Hajime: anyone?
Hajime: …
Hajime: Izuru I know youre there
Izuru: What is it?
Hajime: sheesh
Hajime: mikan was on top of me
Hajime: I couldn't breathe
Izuru: That's nice.
Hajime: you really don't care do you?
Izuru: no
Hajime: well ill wait til mornig
Izuru: yes please
When Shuuichi woke up he immediately noticed that Hajime had sent some texts during the night. He didn't mind it too much and decided to ask about it after breakfast. Breakfast went relatively well beside that fact that the student council was being a bit oppressing and forcing the students to do exactly as they said. After breakfast they were free to do as they wanted, as long as it didn't hurt anyone.
This was the moment that Shuuichi decided to check in with Hajime.
Group chat: 'ahoge squad'
Shuuichi: so what happened
Hajime: someone here to hear me out?
Shuuichi: yes
Hajime: yes!
Hajime: well I woke up not being able to breath but that was because mikan was on top of me
Shuuichi: wow
Hajime: yeah but I had to change shifts with fuyuhiko anyway so it wasbt too bad that I woke up
Hajime: so I go downstairs and Kazuichi made these facetime machines
Shuuichi: so you can still talk with other people
Hajime: without the risk of them getting infected
Makoto: that's a good idea
Hajime: I know right
Hajime: but this happened in the middle of the night
Shuuichi: so we weren't there to talk aobut it
Hajime: yeah
Hajime: only Izuru who doesn't care abou tme
Makoto: well Izuru could be a bit nicer to you
Shuuichi: yeah tahts right
Hajime: I still wonder how Izuru and I are the same persoone
Makoto: yeah
Makoto: it is a bit confusing
Makoto: with me it is a bit clearer
Makoto: nothing much is happeneing now that the AI has been stolen
Hajime: that's good news right?
Shuuichi: I thing so
Makoto: I hope so
Makoto: I mean someone could also be planning something
Shuuichi: yeah
Shuuichi: with me things are alright I gues
Shuuichi: I mean I have the feeling that I live in some sort of dictatior ship
Shuuichi: but beside that it is pretty nice
Hajime: must be tought
Makoto: I cant imagine someon controlling things like that
Shuuichi: well there is Monokuma
Hajime: yeah
Makoto: so what are you guys going to do today?
Hajime: keep watch and make sure the sick people stay alive
Shuuichi: haha
Shuuichi: I;m thinking about hanging out with Kaito
Hajime: must be nice to hang out with people without risk
Hajime: *glare
Makoto: haha
Makoto: im hanging out with celestia
Shuuichi: who?
Makoto: the ultimate gambler
Hajime: play some gambling games against her
Hajime: I wanna know who win
Shuuichi: good question
Shuuichi: I might also read osme more
Makoto: yes please
Makoto: I want to know what happens to my sis
Hajime: if only you had that book yourself
Makoto: well I probably wouldn't even pick up the book
Hajime: haha same
Shuuichi: you guys have no life
Hajime: you have no life
Hajime: mister anti social
Shuuichi: hmmpf
Makoto: really
Izuru: These guys are boring.
Makoto: that's nt nice Izuru
Hajime: yah
Hajime: please explain how we are the same presone
Izuru: no
Shuuichi: please?
Izuru: no
Makoto: come on be nice to the others
Izuru: no
Shuuichi: well we are have no luck with him
Hajime: not even makoto
Makoto: haha…
Shuuichi: well im going to read now
Hajime: good luck
Hajime: I'll try to stay alive
Makoto: see u laterrrr
For Shuuichi the day continued like normal. Nothing much happened, save for some student council shenanigans. He was just about to read during his afternoon when he received a text.
Group chat: 'smart people'
Nagito: I hate all of you so much
Shuuichi: what?
Nagito: I do not want to talk to you
Shuuichi: hajime did mention you had the liars disease
Shuuichi: and ive spent enough time with kokichi to know how to handle lis
Izuru: I do think that this is a little different.
Shuuichi: well yeah
Shuuichi: we just have to take what he says and turn it into the opposti
Izuru: I can see why you have been put into this chat.
Shuuichi: thankyou
Nagito: I'm so sad that you continue talking without me
Shuuichi: …
Shuuichi: you should be sad
Shuuichi: by the way don't you have a fever?
Nagito: no
Shuuichi: you should rest
Nagito: no
Shuuichi: just go to sleep
Nagito: no
Izuru: Just ignore him.
Shuuichi: sure
After those shenanigans Shuuichi closed his monopad and picked up his book and started reading again. The book still disturbed him, those kids seemed a bit weird.
Before he knew it, it was already evening, and he had to train with Kaito and Maki. When he went outside his room he saw Maki but couldn't find Kaito. After asking Maki she said that Kaito wanted to skip again. When they went outside they were spotted by Tenko and she wanted them to come with her and convince Angie to stop with what she was doing.
Group chat: 'danganronpa squad'
Tenko: so whats the plan
Maki: why are we talking here
Tenko: so the rest of the council wont hear us
Shuuichi: but we could make our own chat?
Tenko: naw too much time
Maki: right
Makoto: Is everything alright here?
Shuuichi: yeah were just going to try and convince angie to stop with the whole council brainwashing thing
Makoto: makes sense
Maki: I doubt shell listen
Tenko: we wont know until we try
Shuuichi: I shees what is kokichi doing out?
Maki: being annoying
Shuuichi: I suspected that much
Maki: then why did you ask
Shuuichi: lets just focus on our objective
Makoto: yeah do that
Kiyotaka Ishimaru has joined group chat: 'danganronpa squad'
Kiyotaka: YOU SHOULD FOLLOW THE RULES
Makoto: wow hes here
Shuuichi: classmate of yours?
Makoto: yup
Makoto: he is very abou the rules
Kiyotaka: YES
Makoto: said so
Maki: he seems like a hassle
Tenko: guys we have to go to angie
Maki: right
Shuuichi: maybe this chatting is distracting us too much
Makoto: good luck
Shuuichi: good night
Kiyotaka: MAY YOUR DREAMS BE FILLED WITH ACED TESTS
Maki: he is certainly odd
They then continued with their quest to convince Angie but they weren't very successful and they were forced to return to their beds and wait for the next morning.
When he woke up the next morning, he Maki and Kaito went to Angie's lab to stop her from performing the ritual. When they were at the door they were stopped by Himiko who had protected the door for Angie. When they decided together with Himiko that it was the best option to open the door they got Kokichi to pick the lock on the door. But when the door opened they saw a dead Angie on the floor and the body-discovery-announcement rang throughout the building. Shuuichi decided that his best option was to inform the people in the chat.
Group chat: 'danganronpa squad'
Shuuichi: help please!
Makoto: why?
Hajime: sorry im kinda busy
Makoto: with what
Hajime: finding people to help me try to save whomever was just hanging herself
Shuuichi: well here weve got a body
Tenko: yup
Makoto: not again
Makoto: its starting again
Izuru: Well if the last two instances are anything to go by then Makoto should be careful.
Makoto: yeah
Makoto: anyway who died?
Tenko: Angie
Gundham: that doesn't surprise me
Maki: me neither
Shuuichi: but it is a locked room murder
Tenko: it could be a result from the ritual
Gundham: yes that would make the most sense
Maki: no it wont
Makoto: I have to go with maki this time
Shuuichi: yeah
Shuuichi: I don't believe in that kind of stuff
Hajime: well we got two dead bodies
Makoto: TWO?
Makoto: sheesh cruel
Hajime: I know right
Hajime: wait ill sent a pic
Hajime sent a picture
Shuuichi sent a picture
Tenko: wow cruel
Tenko: especially to that young girl
Maki: well Hajime did mention she was annoying
Tenko: that doesn't mean she has to die
Tenko: the person even tied her obi that way
Makoto: that is kind of cruel
Shuuichi: can you explain what happened Hajime
Gundham: that would be favourable
Hajime: well I woke up during the night with Mikan on top of me
Makoto: again?
Hajime: yeah and then later when I went to the hospital the communication device turned on and it desplaied someone hanging themselves and since this was connected to the music place and went there
Shuuichi: good decision
Maki: if you were on time it would have safed them
Hajime: with here it is were is is starting to get strange
Tenko: ?
Hajime: when I opened the doors there was only one body hanging and when I returned later with a couple others the door wouldn't open and when we got it open there were two bodies
Shuuichi: that is strange
Shuuichi: even stranger than our locked room with hanging wax figures
Tenko: somehow I doubt that
Makoto: I think that the best choice is to investigate
Hajime: right
Maki: anyway are we really going to do that séance?
Shuuichi: apparently
Hajime: what?
Gundham: a séance is an ancient tradition in which people try to communicate with theh dead
Hajime: rigjt
Hajime: I dobu t that would work
Shuuichi: same but Kiyo suggested it
Makoto: someone got attacked here!
Tenko: Izuru was right?
Shuuichi: who got attacked?
Makoto: celestia
Gundham: does she remember the perpetrator?
Makoto: yes is was a robot with a hammer
Shuuichi: talking about strange incidents
Makoto: we are trying to chase the suspect but we don't know were he wnet
Hajime: any ideas?
Makoto: well we decided that it was best to split up
Shuuichi: in groups right?
Makoto: well yeah
Makoto: evn I know what happens in horror moveis in these situations
Tenko: wow someone who actually is smart
Shuuichi: Tenko we have to go
Tenko: right bye
Shuuichi: bye
Hajime: huh I wonder if it works
Makoto: Kiyotaka is dead
Gundham: that boy from last night
Makoto: yeah
Hajime: he died before we even got to know him
Gundham: yes
Makoto: now im the only one from my game again
Makoto: anyway weve to meet up with the others
Hajime: good luck
Hajime: ill keep on investigating
Nagito: and ill be happy to help
Hajime: youre back to normal?
Nagito: yes now that someone died the motive is no longer needed
Makoto: what Hifumi is dead too
Gundham: that's odd
Makoto: yeah becase why did the bodyannouncemetn only play once
Izuru: That is strange…
Makoto: I guess we should just go and check up on the bodies and start investigating
Hajime: that's seems that best thing
Shuuichi: hey
Makoto: how d it go
Shuuichi: …
Hajime: Tenko?
Shuuichi: she died
Gundham: ?
Nagito: wow
Hajime: no way
Makoto: you were in the room with her
Shuuichi: yes and that's whats so frustrating
Shuuichi: someone had the guts to kill someone right in front of me
Shuuichi: as a detective and just simply cant forgive that
Maki: that seems right
Hajime: another person we knew died
Izuru: Now in every game two people have died…
Shuuichi: right that is odd
Shuuichi: these coincidences start to get really suspicious
Makoto: right
Makoto: but at least your suspect have been cut down
Shuuichi: I guess
Shuuichi: the only ones that could have done it are Kiyo, Himiko, kokichi, me and Tenko
Makoto: suicide?
Hajime: why would she do that
Izuru: It would make sense if she was the one the had killed the other girl.
Maki: it would but I doubt that that is the case
Maki: since when has something been obvious in these murders
Shuuichi: Makoto case 1 with 11037
Makoto: that wasn't that obvious!
Hajime: yeah only the smart peeps could figure it out
Gundham: I have to agree
Shuuichi: but like Maki said we cant say that that's what happened
Shuuichi: after all there are more suspicious poepe
Maki: right
Maki: im placing my bets on Kokichi
Shuuichi: im not
Maki: why
Shuuichi: reasons
Hajime: sheesh vague much
Maki: well he had to have something to do with it
Makoto: that oculd be
Nagito: especially if hes like me
Hajime: did you have something to do with our murders
Nagito: not this time
Nagito: I was kind of unconscious for the most time
Shuuichi: well that's one less suspect
Gundham: delightful
Makoto: guys the bodies have moved
Izuru: Dead people cannot move.
Shuuichi: yeah
Makoto: I know but now they are bothy in the art room and just now the other announcement played
Kokichi Ouma has joined group chat: 'danganronpa squad'
Maki: no
Kokichi: well if this isn't interesting
Well this certainly took longer than expected. Sorry for the wait but the last month was a lot busier than I had anticipated. At least this is the longest chapter yet and things are finally happening. Luckily I'm trying a writing challenge this month and I hope to finish this story before the new year starts. I mean I only got 5 chapters left with maybe a epilogue...
As for the canon divergence please note that it won't diverge too much. I will bring up some theories I have. But the same people will end up dead, maybe the order will be a bit different. Makoto's game in particular will barely change since he is rarely in a position of control during the story and with the next murder being a suicide and then the whole Mukuro thing, I don't feel like I can change that. I have the feeling that I can probably change the most during chapter 4 of the stories but in Makoto's game that whole situation was pretty much out of his control. But please don't expect too much of a divergence, since the same people will end up dead.
About Makoto's game, the next character from that game that enters the chat will stay for the rest of the story and not die in a couple chapters. Also please note that I'm writing this without a beta reader and that I can make mistakes, so if you found one please tell me.
Have a nice day.
