Disclaimer: I don't own Danganronpa
I returned to my room with thoughts of the video still fresh in my mind. This feeling of dread and confusion is something I have never faced with before entering this game world. Why was I really sent here? Why did Monokuma lie to me about my role? Let me review what happened First, Monokuma brought my father and my little sister to this world as hostages, second my best friend Tomo is really Mioda Ibuki, a member of Junko's despair group...or used to be it seems currently. My doorbell rang suddenly and I quickly answered the door and there stood Mukuro still disguised as Junko.
" Mukuro? I said.
Mukuro looked down at her shoes in shame.
"I'm sorry Chihiro, I didn't mean to go with Monokuma's lie, but Junko was so insistent to motivate you to participate in her game without refusal." she muttered.
"Why do you continue to listen to your sister Mukuro, I understand you love her very dearly and want to earn her love back, but can you really keep this up?" I asked her with concern.
I read Danganronpa IF at the end of the second game so I know her feelings, but I can't sit here and watch Mukuro be betrayed by her own beloved sister who doesn't give a damn about anything or anyone, but to fuel her obsession with despair.
"Ever since I ran off to join Fenrir Junko has gotten rather nasty towards me. I returned with her being cold towards me and I felt as if I had lost the only family I had left in this world so..." stated Mukuro but I interrupted.
" She probably does care for you in some twisted way I guess, but even if you keep up with her plans she will betray you and kill you." I said, " Junko's plan for you later after the first murder will end up with you dead. I want to prevent that."
Mukuro's eyes widened in pure shock. She never thought that her own sister would do something like that to her no less.
"Is...is what you say true Chihiro?" she asked in a scared voice. " Is Junko really going to betray me and kill me?"
I nodded at her sadly.
"Yes she will." I said to her.
" Aside from me, I'm sure you have questions about your friend Tomo that you would like to be answered right?" Mukuro asked me.
"I do want to know why and how is she Mioda Ibuki and why is she helping me now? I asked her.
"Ibuki told me that once she finds away to contact you again she will tell you everything you need to know." Mukuro said. "Junko is not happy about her doing this at all and it seems that Ibuki is keeping your family safe and are currently located in a safe house in a city that I cannot name right now because of the cameras.
" That's good!" I said as I breathed a sigh of relief. " Thank god their safe..."
" Please don't lose hope Chihiro, you are the other world's only hope against Junko's despair. " Mukuro pleaded. "No matter what Junko and Monokuma does to create despair don't give in and stay strong!"
As she said those words Mukuro gripped my shoulders tightly. She really has faith in me it seems and is desperate for me to stop her sister's despair from spreading amongst other universes.
A screen showed up in front of me
Spend time with Mukuro?
[Yes][ No]
I decided to spend time with Mukuro. In the end Mukuro stayed with me for a while and we ended up talking about Sayaka Maizono and her plan to frame Naegi for her murder. We decided to switch the name plates back to their original places and try to convince Leon to not to meet up with Sayaka. After that though...we kind of went off topic.
After talking with her it seems I have gotten to know Mukuro a little more better now. She told me things about her life that even the game itself had never explored. Her life on the streets with Junko, their daily life in the past, as well as Junko's old hopes and dreams before becoming her current self. As for Junko herself I learned that she wasn't the evil mastermind that I had thought she was. Junko was a girl who used to have hope in the world just like everyone else. Something made her change and even Mukuro herself did not understand why or how. Even if I want to save Junko now she's beyond help. Lost herself deep within the dark abyss of eternal despair.
"If you want to save Sayaka san and Kuwata san I suggest you speak to him now before it's too late." Suggests Mukuro.
I nodded in agreement. Speaking to Leon would be a good idea and doing so would prevent Sayaka's plan from being implemented. After Mukuro left I went over to Leon's room and rang the bell. He answered the door surprised. He wasn't expecting me of all people to visit him.
" Huh? Fujisaki chan?" he asked in a surprised tone.
"I came to speak to you Leon san, it's important." I said in a serious tone of voice.
Leon nodded and asked if I would like to come inside. I did so and he started ask a question.
"So...what is it?" he asked.
"It's about Maizono san." I said.
"Maizono?" asked Leon in a confused voice. "What about her? Sure she seems a little on edge but..."
"She's planning to kill someone tonight mainly you." I said getting straight to the point. "Have you received a message from her asking you to meet up with her in her dorm yet?"
Leon looked shocked at my words. Then he slowly nodded his head.
"Ye..yeah how'd you know?" he asked.
"Oh I have my ways..." I said trying not to reveal my secret knowledge of the other students and their actions.
"What ways exactly?" asked Leon a little skeptical.
"It's a .et. " I replied.
Leon sighs not being able to get any more information from me any further than this.
Well, out with it!" he said wanting to know what I wanted to say.
" Maizono is planning on switching dorms with Naegi who she deems her scapegoat in her plans. She plans to kill you in his room and frame him for your murder." I explained. " I want to prevent that. So please whatever you do don't go to meet her!"
Leon stood where he is gawking at me in disbelief . Maizono...wouldn't do something like that he thought. Will she?
"I...I believe you Fujisaki chan, I won't meet with Maizono and thank you for letting me know her plan."
"It's no problem." I said to Leon smiling kindly. "I'll to anything to stop the killing."
The usual nighttime announcement went on and I waited for the right time to put my and Mukuro's plan into action. After a while I walked out of my room towards Sayaka and Naegi's dorms are. I saw Sayaka walking over to Naegi's room. she knocked on his door and proceeded to tell him her lie.
"I'm really sorry to come by so late..." lied Sayaka.
Naegi asked her what was wrong and she continued her lie.
"Sorry to bother you, but... [something really weird] just happened.
"Something weird?" asked Naegi.
"Just a little while ago, I was laying down in my room...It was like someone was trying to force the door open." said Sayaka. "My door was locked, so they couldn't get in, of course. But they started shaking the door harder and harder. I was so scared I couldn't even move."
"So what happened?" asked Naegi.
Please don't follow through with her lie Naegi! I thought as I hid and watched them. Remember what I told you yesterday!
"After awhile, it just... stopped." says Sayaka, " I let some time go by, then I got up and opened the door to check outside...but there was nobody outside."
They continued their talk when Naegi looked real hesitant to let her stay in his room ,but in the end he complied. Stupid Naegi... you just walked into her trap damn it! After Naegi walked out of his room and proceeded to go inside Sayaka's I confronted him.
"Naegi what were you thinking!?" I thought I specifically told you to not switch rooms with Sayaka!" I cried out.
Naegi looked at me sheepishly.
"Sorry about that Chihiro san."He said. "She looked really scared so...I had to please understand."
"She might have lied to you Naegi, you shouldn't just blindly trust people's words especially in a situation such as the mutual killing."
"Sorry..." apologized Naegi. "I promise I'll listen to you next time, but Sayaka is already in my room with my keys so..."
"What's done is done Naegi, I'll let it slide for now okay? " I told him," just get some rest."
Naegi nodded and went into Sayaka's room. I went into a corner and watched as Sayaka walked out of Naegi's room and proceeded to switch the two nameplates and went back into Naegi's room to wait for her victim show up. I waited for a while longer then I switched the two nameplates back to their original places. Unfortunately for me Sayaka caught me.
" Switching the nameplate back Chihiro?" she sneered at me. " I knew you would do that since you work for Monokuma."
I never should have told her my secret and now she is after me.
" No...that's not true!" I cried out.
"Not true?" said Sayaka as she pulled me into the room and raised her knife at me. " Acting strangely since Monokuma's introduction and telling me something so absurd to distract me!"
"Maizono san, please don't!" I cried out struggling to get my wrist out of her tight grasp.
She stabbed me on my side and I gasped in pain and shock. Pink blood poured from my wound and onto my dress. Sayaka then proceeded to stab me again.
"I saw you talking with Kuwata earlier today Chihiro, and I knew sending him that message would draw you out!" She says as she stabbed me yet again.
Ugh...it hurts...is this the end?! At least I can go back to fix this mistake, but I really can't afford to waste my tries. I feel so dizzy now...I'm going to die aren't I. No! I can't die here! I have to get out now! With all the remaining strength I had left I grabbed the golden sword replica that was on the table beside me with my free hand and knocked the knife out of Sayaka's hand. She screamed as it broke her wrist and she drops the knife.
With a scared look she let go of me and clutched her broken wrist and ran into the bathroom to hide. As for me. I decided to just leave her there and ran out of the room clutching my own wound with my hand to stop the bleeding. Still feeling lightheaded and dizzy I felt my head spinning as I ran down the hall breathing shallowly. With no strength left anymore I fell onto the floor with blood from my wound dripping around me in a pool. As I slowly closed my eyes a blurry figure leaned over me his voice but a distant echo.
"Stay with me! He says to me. Please Fujisaki, come on...don't die on me!"
I tried to say something, but my vision went black.
A/N: Fourth chapter is finally finished! Also the city that Chihiro's family is currently in is definitely not Towa city. Please read and review.
