Hallooo peeps! Back again with another chapter! This time, the boys get their free times. And just to note... If a person dies and they never got their free time event, or if their backstory or character isn't explained, I'll make an extra chapter containing their own special free time event with Chiari. JessJess out!


"Monokuma... What the hell?" Chiari sighed.

"What do you mean by motive?" Erik asked.

Monokuma cackled creepily. "I mean a motive to make you kill each other!"

Naoki groaned. "Again with the killing... It's not happening!"

"This is pointless... What is even the point of this?" Sora crossed her arms.

"Why put the motive so early? We only stayed her for two days..." Chiari pointed out.

Monokuma's face was red, and steam was bursting out of his ears, proving that shit's going to happen. "I don't care what you idiots are gonna say! You are going to listen to me whether you like it or not!"

"Whatever. It's the middle of the freaking night. Get on with it," Ichirou turned his head away, bored.

Monokuma began to calm down after punching Monomi a couple times. "Please line up outside the A/V Room immediately!"

Everyone slowly forced themselves out of the cafeteria, the echoing footsteps rung through the cruise and they walked towards the A/V Room. Monokuma stuck a sign on the wall that says 'Only one person can go in at a time!' in sloppy handwriting. So sloppy that Chiari thought her glasses weren't working right.

"Now! There will be DVD's with each your names labeled on it. You play your own video, and watching another student's video is prohibited! Now have fun!" Monokuma disappeared.

Monomi looked at the students seriously. "Whatever you watch, don't give in!" Monomi disappeared in sparkles.

The first one to go in was Chiari, of course.

"Chiari! You go in first!" Reiko shoved Chiari in.

"Why? Are you scared?" Chiari angrily asked.

"N-No! just go!" Reiko slammed the door closed. Leaving Chiari in the dimly lit room.

Guess I have no choice... Chiari rummaged through the box of disks and found the one with her name on it. 'Chiari Yamamoto: Motive DVD'. She inserted the DVD in the slot to project on the screen. What she saw on the screen was...

"Wow, I didn't know so many people were talented with a variety of weird talents!"

Wait, what? Is that...? Chiari gasped as she saw what happened. Eiji...

"I know right? And I'm going there soon!"

Chiari was still in awe as she saw the event that happened before the killing game took place. I hope he's okay...

"So, will you miss me?"

"Of course! I'll miss you too! You're also going to school soon!"

Chiari smiled as she saw herself and Eiji making a pinkie promise. She couldn't believe this was the motive. What is Monokuma going with this? Sure, heartwarming moments from home will make me want to escape... But not to kill someone!

Suddenly, the screen went black... And Monokuma's voice boomed through the speakers. "Aww! What a heartwarming moment between family members! But what would happen if that relationship was broken?"

The screen flashed a picture of the same room, only with what looks like an explosion took place. Eiji was nowhere to be seen, and blood was splattered on the floor. Chiari's eyes widened as she became really pale with a bit of blue on her face. W-What!?

"Whoa! What happened? Where is your sweet little brother and your parents?" Then the screen flashed the words... 'Kill someone to find out!'

"N-No... NOOO!" Chiari screamed, clutching her hair and backing away and leaning against the wall, shaking. "N-No... What happened!? Did you k-kill them you bastard!?"

Monokuma laughed, seeing the sight of Chiari feeling despair. "Upupu! Can't you read? You have to kill each other to find out!" the speakers began to turn off after that announcement.

Chiari's mind raced as she rolled up into a ball against the wall. It's fake! It's gotta be fake! Chiari kept denying the fact of what she saw. I have to get out of here! I... I... Chiari sniffed, and tears began to fall down her face. I... I'll kill to get out...


"W-Whoa! Chiari! W-We heard muffled s-screaming! And... y-you look t-terrible!" Mami was shocked and rushed to comfort Chiari, who looked really pale and traumatized.

"I-I'm okay..." Chiari ignored the crowd around her and put her hands on her face as she slid down the wall next to the A/V room doors.

"This is not like her to look so sad, she was always so positive!" Romeo said with a childish frown.

"...That means we should be careful of what Monokuma has in store for us in there..." Ki looked at the A/V Room with a serious look.

"...So who's going in next?" Yuzuru hesitated before asking that.

"Why the hell should we go in? Let's just not!" Shinobu started to walk away to her room.

The speakers turned on again. "Oh! And by the way, don't even bother walking away from this... You'll be punished!"

"Shut up!" Reina shouted at the speakers.

"Okay then, Shinobu! Then you go in next!" Akira smiled angrily and Sousuke shoved Shinobu into the room.

"-Sigh-... Fine... If that's what you want," Shinobu calmly said as she slammed the door shut.

A couple minutes later, the noises from the inside weren't very pleasant.

"Wh-What? This can't be happening!"

The other students looked at each other in fear as they heard the shocked voice of Shinobu. She came out of the A/V Room, with a calm, yet a look where she's about to loose her cool. She said nothing as she walked away to the cafeteria to calm down with some royal milk tea.

One by one, the other students walked in to the A/V Room. When they come out, they're looks on their faces are either shocked, in denial, or full of despair.

"C-Could it be true?" Reiko looked pale as she clutched her sides with fear. "W-Why!?"

Chiari looked shocked at Reiko. "R-Reiko?"

Reiko's face turned blue. "I-I'm sorry... I have to leave..." She walked up the stairs slowly.

"Yeah... M-Me too..." Shinobu ran up to the bedrooms.

"U-Um, I'll go too..." Sousuke followed the two girls.

"Same here..." Ichirou followed as well.

Ayano silently walked up the stairs, looking bored, yet looked shocked and a little pale. She's pretty hard to read. Ki silently walked away, Mami whimpered as she followed Yuzuru, Akira had the help of Naoki as they walked up the stairs, Vonda and Erik were a little bit distant from each other as they stepped up to the bedrooms, and the rest followed.

"W-Why did we deserve this?" Chiari whimpered as she walked inside of her room. "Eiji... Mom... Dad..."

She kept repeating those words as she struggled to fall asleep. There was an uncomfortable feeling in the air as she slowly drifted off to sleep.


"W-What time is it?" Chiari woke up and looked at the clock in her room. '4:30' Guess that video hit me hard that I can't sleep... Chiari thought as she slowly got out of bed, put on her sweatshirt over her pajama tank top and sweatpants, and started to walk out of her room and wandered around the cruise. She opened the main glass doors leading outside. The sun still wasn't up and the night winds brushed against her skin and her hair slightly flown in the wind as she watched the ocean and the starry sky.

"What are you doing here?"

Chiari jumped. "R-Romeo! What the heck!? D-Don't scare me!"

Romeo faked a smile and laughed. "What? Did my fabulous appearance scare you?"

Chiari sighed. "Whatever..."


Spend Freetime With Romeo?

[Yes] [No]


Chiari turned her hear towards Romeo. "S-So... What did you see in your video?"

Romeo looked away. "I'd rather not say."

Chiari looked down at the ocean waves. "Oh... Sorry..."

They leaned against the deck in silence, with a few small jokes from Romeo.

Eleven minutes later...

It looks like Chiari and Romeo got a little closer today.


Would You Like to Give a Present?

[Yes] [No, cause she didn't have any freaking time to stop by at the machine]


"..."

"What? No present?" Romeo looked at Chiari's guilty face.

Chiari nervously laughed and scratched her head. "Yeah... I only have two coins left, and I didn't know you'd be here..."

Romeo giggled. "Well then, instead of you giving me a gift, how 'bout I give you one?"

Chiari looked confusedly at Romeo. "Hmm?"

Romeo handed three coins to her. "Monokuma gave us these while you guys were exploring the convenience store. You can have 'em. I don't want them anyway."

Chiari smiled. "T-Thanks."

Three coins obtained!

"Sooo..." Chiari awkwardly said. "I like your songs! How do you manage to sing in front of a crowd?"

Romeo sighed and crossed his arms. "Well, I just don't like to disappoint my fans, so I have to sing to them."

Chiari's smile turned into a frown. "You don't look so happy. What's up?"

Romeo faked a smile. "No, nothing! Everything's all right... Besides the video crap we went through..."

Chiari hid a laugh. "Yeah, it was definitely crap."

Romeo looked up at Chiari. "Also, I... just lost my intrest to sing I guess. But my fans would be furious if I quit... not that they're here to support me anymore..."

She saw that Romeo wasn't being his jokester self, so Chiari cheerfully smiled. "Don't worry! I bet you'll gain your intrest back soon!"

Romeo then tilted his head in confusion. "I've been meaning to ask, why are you here?"

"Well, I couldn't sleep, as usual." Chiari answered. "Guess everything is too much to handle."

Romeo smirked. "You're too much to handle."

"Hey!" Chiari yelled.

Romeo laughed. "I mean in a good way! You're optimism, you're craziness, you're beauty, it's too much!"

Chiari crossed her arms and puffed her cheeks angrily. "Hmph! I bet you say that to every girl!" She looked away and frowned. "First Mami, now you!"

Romeo's eyes widen. "Woah! What's with the outburst! I just complimented you!"

Chiari calmed down. "I'm sorry, I just never received compliments before. All I received were insults back then." Chiari weakly smiled. "I'm just not used to it."

Romeo had a sorry look on his face. "Well, forget those people! They're all assholes anyway!"

Chiari giggled. "Yeah, I guess!"

Romeo cheerfully smiled and waved goodbye to Chiari as he went to the convenience store to get some snacks for breakfast, since the cafeteria was still closed. But still, he had some sort of a sad look in his eyes. Chiari sadly shrugged it off and decided to get more items from the machine, just so she wouldn't make the same mistake again.

Romeo's Freetime: Over


Chiari open the glass doors to the convenience store and stepped towards the machine. She looked to the left and saw Romeo sneaking in some potato chips and started to rapidly munch on them. Chiari snorted as she hid a laugh seeing Romeo being ridiculous as usual. She inserted two coins in, and the machine shook and popped out a purple plastic toy capsule. Inside was a pink plastic pen with a pink feather pen topper on it. Chiari smirked evilly. I have a GOOD idea who this is going to. Muahahaha!- -Cough cough-. She tried again with only one coin, and picked up a wizard's hat. I still don't know how that fit in there...

She quickly turned to Romeo, who was now drinking water with chip crumbs on his face. She slowly backed away and looked the time near the checkout counter. 5:30 am. Still have a few more hours to spend... she thought as she tip toed out of the store and up the stairs into her room. Chiari took off her sweatshirt and then decided to explore the handbook a little more. She looked at the other apps. There was one called, 'Truth Bullets', which was inaccessible. Another app is called 'Autopsy Reports'. What? She was confused with the fact that she even needed this app, but she decided not to bother with it.

She already knew there was a profile app and a rules/regulations app. There was also some mobile games, but they're just simple puzzle games and mystery games. But what catched her eye the most was the map app. She pressed the application and a digital map popped up on the screen showing the first floor, plus the indoor balcony and the deck with the pool and waterslide. This might be useful, Chiari thought and turned the e-Handbook off. She decided to take a little nap until the sun rises.

"Will I really have to kill to get out and rescue my family?"


"Chiariii! Get up!" A voice was heard as Chiari grudgingly lifted her head off her comfy pillow.

"Whaaat?" Chiari whined.

"You're late! Again!" Erik crossed his arms and dragged Chiari off the bed.

"Ow!" She slammed onto the floor on her butt. "How did you get in my room anyway!?"

Erik giggled. "You left it unlocked."

Chiari groaned. "Get out. I'll get changed."

Erik smiled. "Aww, why? Your bed is actually comfy! And at least let me organize your room!"

Chiari had a scary look on her face. "Get. Out."

Erik nervously laughed. "Oh, all right."

Don't ever wake Chiari up. She'll turn into a monster. The more you know.

Chiari opened her closet and changed into her usual outfit. She hesitated before remembering what Romeo said, and decided to keep her hair down, as she never does that.

"Alright... I'm good." Chiari glared at Erik.

Erik put his hands up. "Okay, okay! I get it! I'm sorry! Oh, by the way... Nice hair style! I love it!"

Chiari put up a tsundere look, blushed, and looked away. "Y-Yeah, whatever..."

They walked down the stairs and opened the cafeteria doors and saw everyone, either had a calm, traumatized, or scared look on their faces. Looks like me, Romeo, and Erik are the few people that recovered from that video... Chiari and Erik leaned against the wall, not knowing what to do.


Spend Freetime With Erik?

[Yes] [No]


Chiari and Erik had a little bit of small talk about random topics.

7 minutes later...

It looks like Chiari and Erik got a little closer today.


Would You Like to Give a Present?

[Yes] [No]


Select the Present You Would Like to Give:

[Pink Pen]

[Wizard Hat]


Erik looked confused. "Uuuuhhhh..."

"What? I just wanted to give something!" Chiari said.

"No! It's awesome! It's just... Why give it to me?" Erik took the hat.

"Well, you're the magician, might as well give you something magical!" Chiari smiled.

Erik gratefully accepted the wizard's hat. "So... Are you okay after that video? You were a bit more shocked than everyone else when you exited that A/V room."

Chiari sighed. "Yeah, I'm fine. Usually macarons make me feel better."

Erik looked confusedly at Chiari. "Why maca-,"

"-Munch, munch-"

"Where did you get that?" Erik asked.

"Don't ask," Chiari kept munching on her cookies and cream flavored macaron.

Erik laughed. "So, do you want me to show you a magic trick?"

Chiari cleaned her hands from crumbs. "Sure! I actually haven't watched a magic show ever since I was a kid!"

Erik did one of the classics. The hat trick. He snatched Chiari's macaron and carefully placed it inside his magician hat.

"Hey!" Chiari said with a mouthful of food.

"Please clean up, it's bothering me," Erik said as he tipped the hat over. "Do you see the macaron?"

Chiari crossed her arms. "Yeah... Gimmie..."

Erik ignored Chiari's plead and lifted the hat up, shaking it a bit, then tilting it back towards her.

"Gone! Vanished!" Erik proudly said. "Oh, and don't even bother finding a secret to this, I do it differently."

While Chiari was weeping over a pastry, everyone else started to finish eating breakfast.

"Should we start the meeting?" Sousuke turned around in his chair, trying his best not to laugh at the current situation.

"Okay. It's almost noon anyway," Erik answered, sitting down in a chair next to Vonda.

Erik's Freetime: Over


"Hmph..." Chiari puffed her cheeks in anger while munching on a cookie.

"Chiari, how the hell do you eat that much sweets and not have high blood sugar, and not gain any weight?" Shinobu asked curiously.

"Fast metabolism," Chiari said quickly as she sipped on a milkshake.

Shinobu cringed at Chiari's eating habits. "...That still doesn't explain the blood sug-,"

"We don't need to talk about that. Right now, we need to focus on the topic at hand." Ichirou said, getting back on track.

"This is boring..." Ayano stood up from her chair and attempted to find a quiet, isolated spot to play an otome game.

"Yeah! Like those creepy videos!" Reiko said, trying her best to look positive.

"Ugh, fine," Chiari set down her milkshake on the table and leaned back in her chair. Everyone was mostly silent during the meeting, with a few small talk here and there.

"So... The v-videos..." Mami said, breaking the ice.

"They all shown something traumatic in each of them, making us want to go home," Naoki pointed out.

"But not to kill each other!" Akira confidently said.

"I guess..." Yuzuru said.

"I doubt we'd kill other over a stupid video," Sora sighed.

"Yeah, yeah," Reina said, being bored.

"Reina! Lift your spirits!" Romeo nudged her elbow.

Ki was a bit distant from the others, drinking hot chocolate.

"...That's it? No useful information at all?" Vonda said.

Chiari shrugged her shoulders. "Guess so."

"Okay then. Meeting is over. We can all break for today," Sousuke said. Everyone got out of their seats and separated into different directions.

Chiari exited the cafeteria doors and decided to explore a little more. She turned her head towards the main doors and went to the pool to relax for a short time. Chiari went to the pool on the deck and dipped her feet into the nice water as the rushing waters of the waterslide broke the silence. The weather is peaceful today... Chiari thought as there was no clouds in the sky and the sun was shining bright like a ball of light rays.

Chiari started to fade out of reality and began to have deep, abstract thoughts in her mind.

I bet Monokuma is up to something... I mean, why would he set up the motive so early? Chiari was in deep thought for a while, but what she didn't realize is that someone came to the pool too.

"Chiari! Earth to Chiari!" Naoki waved his hand in front of Chiari's face.

"Whaaa? How long was I dazing for!?" Chiari snapped back to reality.

Naoki smirked. "For an hour! I've been looking for you!"

"Aww, come on! Why do I fall asleep at the worst times!" Chiari whined.

Naoki helped Chiari up. He stared at the pool and stuck his hand in the pool water. "The water feels nice! No wonder you stayed here!"

Chiari thought as she tilted her head. But then...

"I know what we should do to lift everyone's spirits!" Chiari literally had a lightbulb over her head.

Naoki looked at Chiari confusedly. "Like what?"

Chiari picked up a beachball from the pool. "We should..."


"Why did you make us meet here Chiari?" Sora asked.

Chiari asked everyone to meet in the cafeteria before lunchtime. Some people were annoyed with constantly meeting at the same place, while some were very excited about what's going to happen.

Chiari confidently smiled. "Well... Me and Naoki decided..."

"T-To what?" Mami replied.

Chiari placed her hands onto her hips. "We decided to have a pool party! To lift everyone's spirits!"

Everyone looked at Chiari with blank stares.


I. Hate. School.

I'm terribly sorry for not updating for a while. I was bombarded test and quizzes. Who gives multiple tests on the same day!? That's stress inducing!

Anyway... I would love to see who you think got affected by the motive the most, and who you'd think is the killer. Bai!
