TDDS: Think Hopeless Thoughts Day 7
(Regular warnings.)

Sierra's POV

'Sierra, I hope when you get this you don't feel sad about me dying. I know this is going to be hard, but please, move on. I know something is wrong with this school, and Monokuma. I keep having nightmares and I know something is wrong. Please, for the love of god, don't lose hope! If you give in to despair, they win. Keep everyone's hopes up as well, you know these people more than themselves, so you know how to stop them from giving up. If you ever find anything interesting record it in this journal. I already wrote down what I heard in my nightmares. Don't give up!-Cody'

I read the Journal entry again, I had to keep it at arm's length to avoid staining it with my tears. I tried to get over it, but I just couldn't, at least for now. I've been in my room for who knows for how long.

After a while I actually got up and took a shower. might as well force myself to live, at least for now. I clutched the camera Cody had given me and went outside for the first time since the trial.

I walked slowly to the cafeteria, and in their I found the rest of the cast. Several people ignored me, but a few were happy to see me. I noticed that the only one not there was Mike.

"Hey Sierra, you came!" Bridgette said happily. "Hey Sierra." Lindsay added.

"Hey." I responded rather dryly. Noah looked up to e for a moment, but went back to reading afterwards. "So did anything happen while I was gone?" I asked to break the silence."

"Other than that emo a**hole telling us how we're all going to die, everything's just been peachy!" Heather responded.

"Really I would of thought-" "Well think no More! You might just hurt yourself!" Monokuma announced, interrupting me.

"Since you bastards actually complied with my rules, I prepared a very special punish-I mean surprise!" Monokuma went on. "The stairs to the first floor, since you guys are on the ground floor, has been unblocked! You may explore to your hearts content! Well toodles Bastards!"

Monokuma was again ran off out of the cafeteria. "Well, are we going or not?" Noah asked.

"Might as well get it over with, come on slowpokes let's go!" Jo stated. Everyone got up and left the cafeteria.

It felt awful that Cody can never be next to me again. But I swallowed up my discomfort and made my way to the second floor stairs. A decided to check my ID-Card before hand. It has apparently been updated without me noticing it.

There was an update on the map, the second floor map had been added. There were several new rooms including: Two classrooms, A library, more bathrooms, and a swimming pool.

I hurried up the stairs, I didn't bother checking the bathrooms, so I checked out th classroom closest to me. Inside was Trent, Zoey, and Cameron. I decided to talk to Cameron and Zoey first.

Free time with Zoey(And Cameron) Start!

"Oh hey Sierra, Are you doing okay?"-Zoey
"Oh hey Zoey, Hey Cameron. I'm feeling fine, why do you ask?"-Sierra
"Sorry if this is from nowhere but, have you really gotten over..."-Zoey
"Zoey is asking if you have finished grieving."-Cameron
"Oh."-Sierra
"Sorry if I'm coming off sensitive, but you locked yourself in your room for a whole day!"-Zoey
"It's okay. I guess I got over it..."-Sierra
(But maybe not after all.)
"I suggest we discuss something else."-Cameron
"Oh right, so what did you guys find"-Sierra
"Nothing really, all these classrooms are exactly the same to one another."-Cameron
"I'm guessing the other classroom on this floor is as well?"-Sierra
"Yeah, B and Anne Maria already checked it out."-Zoey
"Okay I guess I should go check elsewhere."-Sierra
"Bye Sierra!"-Zoey
"Bye!"-Cameron
"Bye guys."-Sierra

Free time with Zoey(and Cameron) End!

After that I looked around the room one last time. Trent had already left while I talked to Zoey and Cameron. I then stepped out and chose where to go next.

I decided to check out the library before going to the pool. It was surprisingly large, it seemed to be divided into several small sections. Signs hung from the ceiling labeled which area is which. A main Desk, A lounge Area, A Stock area, and a door at the back of the room that had a plaque above it that read Archives. There was a cart to move books with in the corner.

Inside were a lot of contestants, including: Alejandro, Heather, Sadie, Mike, and Noah.

Alejandro and Heather were at the Main desk In front of a Laptop, Noah was in the Lounge area, Mike was sulking in the corner, and Sadie was looking wandering around the rows of bookshelves.

I decide to talk to Sadie first.

Free time With Sadie Start!

"Hey Sadie can I talk to you?"-Sierra
(Sadie was looking at the books, ignoring me.)
"..."-Sadie
"Sadie?"-Sierra
"..."-Sadie
"Are you-"-Sierra
"What do you want?"-Sadie
(Sadie looked directly at me- actually no she was Glaring at me.)
"I wanted to see if you are okay."-Sierra
"And why would I be?"-Sadie
"Well..."-Sierra
"Fake. They're all fake."-Sadie
"What's fake?"-Sierra
"These books, they're just pieces of wood painted to look like books."-Sadie
"Oh."-Sierra
"Only the bookshelves near the front have anything real."-Sadie
"Thanks for the information."-Sierra
"Now will you leave me alone now?"-Sadie
"But..."-Sierra
"The most important person I've had known is dead. Unless you can bring her back there is nothing that can cheer me up. Now go away."-Sadie
"Okay, Okay."-Sierra
(Well that was a disaster.)

Free time with Sadie End!

After that talk with Sadie I walked over to the back of the room, I also noticed that Cameron And B had entered the Library. They were at the Laptop alongside Heather, Alejandro, and Noah. I pushed that to the back of my mind and went to talk with Mike

Free time with Mike Start!

"Hey Mike!"-Sierra
"Oh...hey."-Mike
"Are you okay?"-Sierra
"I guess, I just feel like giving up."-Mike
"Now don't say that!"-Sierra
"Sorry, but we're trapped here, two of us are already dead, and ... It's only me and ...him."-Mike
(Mike said the word 'him' rather spitefully at the end, I guess by 'him' Mike means Mal?)
"Come on now, I know I'm not the right person to say you should move on, but.."-Sierra
"But what?"-Mike
"You're not technically alone, I mean even with Mal you can keep him under control right?"-Sierra
"I guess, but since we're in this situation he has a easier time coming up..."-Mike
"Oh yeah all your personalities have triggers right!"-Sierra
(So what's Mal's Trigger? When he said this 'situation', It probably is connected to Mal's trigger, which is?)
(Fedoras/Danger to himself/Obstacles)
"Is Mal's Trigger... Harm to himself?"-Sierra
"What do you mean!?"-Mike
(Mike seemed shocked at me.)
"Well he came back when you got hit by a rock, and your life is endangered in this school...So Mal probably comes out when his existence is threatened!"-Sierra
"Wow, I never thought about it like that."-Mike
"So all you have to do is stay safe, and since everyone here is NOT going to murder anybody, that should be no problem!"-Sierra
"Thanks I guess you're right."-Mike
(Mike seems to be very happy, he has enjoyed his time with you.)
"So Mike, did you check out this 'Archives' room?"-Sierra
"Oh yeah!"-Mike
(Mike proceeded to explain the contents of the room. He said that it had lot of old books and documents used for research, it also held a box of ID-cards. He says he doesn't know the purpose of them but went on to explain that it was incredibly dusty. I thanked him for the information and said goodbye. Now all I have to do is head to the pool.)

Free time with Mike End!

Everyone at the front Desk has left already, so I just hurried out. I went to the pool area, which was behind a set of double doors. Inside was lightning and Jo arguing, while Monokuma watched. This was going to be a doozy.

Free time with Jo (and Lightning)Start!

"I'm going to regret this, but what's going on?"-Sierra
"I was here first, he just can't admit it!"-Jo
"Nuh-uh! Sha!Lightning would never be slower then them!"-Lightning
"I'm just trying to tell these bastards that they tied!"-Monokuma
"As if!"-Jo
"Yeah!"-Lightning
"Can I ask if you guys found anything?"-Sierra
"Of course we..."-Jo
"Ain't nobody got Sha!time for that, we were too busy racing!"-Lightning
"He's right! They searched jack-sh*t!"-Monokuma
"You stay out of this!"-Jo
"No."-Monokuma
"Can you two stop fighting so I can go check out the pool?"
"Not until she admits she lost!"-Lightning
"Even if I did I would never admit it!"-Jo
(If they keep going at this I'll die of old age waiting to go in! There has to be something that can distract them right?)
(A Protein Bar/A Game of Catch/Another challenge)
"Why don't you guys have a Protein bar?"-Sierra
"Okay I love those, but that has nothing to do with this!"-Jo
(Dang it! I guess I should think of something else?)
A Protein Bar/A Game of Catch/Another Challenge
"Well maybe you can try another challenge?"-Sierra
"That's...actually a good Idea!"
"Yeah but what should it be?"
"How about a endurance test? Whoever stays in the sauna the longest-fully clothed by the way! Is the winner!"-Monokuma
"This bear has a good idea and crazy-hair girl is gonna' be our Sha!judge!"-Lightning
"Wait I didn't sign up for this!"-Sierra
"Too bad, you thought of it! Tomorrow morning after lunch you come to the sauna and meet up with us! Don't even try to escape!"-Jo
"Fine."-Sierra
"Good, now. RACE YOU TO THE CAFETERIA!"-Jo
"Oh no you Sha!Don't!"-Lightning
(They both then ran out of the Pool area.)
"Why the sauna?"-Sierra
"So there's a bigger chance of them dying from dehydration!"-Monokuma
"Of course."-Sierra
"By the way the Pool rules will now be added to your ID-Card!"-Monokuma

Free time with Jo (and Lightning)End!

I instinctively checked my ID-card to see the new rules.

Update: Rule #9, Rule #10

Rule 9: There are two Locker rooms for every student's preferred Genders, if a contestant enters one that is not your gender (which is what you put down in your School sign up sheet) they will be shot down once you enter!

Rule 10: The pool has the same nighttime rule as the Cafeteria, but the locker rooms will remain open.

Well I guess that makes sense, even if it's a little extreme.

Bing Bong, Ding Dong! "Attention students, it is now Nighttime! The cafeteria is now closed, so please go to your designated rooms. Have a good night's sleep!"

I guess I'll just check out the pull tomorrow, time sure flies.
