"Em?" I asked.

"Yeah?" she replied.

"How… did you get down here?" I asked.

"I escaped." she replied simply.

"Yeah, but like, how?" Cho asked her.

"I just did." Em said, her face not changing expressions.

Monokuma ran down and entered the room.

"HOW THE HELL DID YOU ESCAPE!?" he yelled at Em.

"Well, I didn't want to fight over a stupid peppermint upstairs…" she replied.

"But, like, HOW DID YOU DO IT WITHOUT BEING ELECTROCUTED TO DEATH FROM THE WIRE?!" he screamed.

"I'm magic." she replied.

"Be serious, Em…" I said.

"I cut the wire. But as soon as I went through, it sealed itself up again." Em replied.

What kind of wire seals itself? I thought.

"Oh, alright fine. I'll let ya get away with this one." Monokuma said, "But I won't let that fly again!"

I walked up out of the bed.

I made my way towards the stairs, and Em followed.

"Wait! Atsuto-kun!" Cho yelled.

I whipped my head around.

"Don't forget the painkillers!" he yelled.

I turned around and grabbed the mini bottle that said Take before you go to sleep.

I ran back up the stairs.

"So, now that we're back up here… what do you want to do about this food deprived motive?" Em asked me.

"Oh. I kinda forgot about that…" I said sheepishly.

She stared at me.

"You're kidding… right?" she replied.

I sighed.

It was getting late (according to the monitor).

So I went my way into the dorm room.

The motive originally said two people to a room.

It would be really awkward to share with one of the girls.

Even more with the guys.

So I figured I would be the odd one out.

After all, we have seven people in the group.

I went into the first room I could find.

I shut the door.

I stared at the wall.

"I'm just happy no one is dead…" I said to myself.

I realized I still had the painkillers in my hand.

Ironically, in the injured one.

I opened the bottle and swallowed one.

I suddenly got really tired.

I slowly walked towards the bed and collapsed on top of it.

"Atsuto?" I heard a voice say.

"Who is it?..." I said.

"Calliope. I wanna talk to you." she said as she knocked on the door.

"I can't move…" I said as I tried to lift my arms.

"Oh alright… I don't wanna be this kind of person…" she said as she opened the door.

Light from the hallway flooded the room.

"Are you okay? They said they were painkillers, not pain that kills!" Calliope said as she ran towards the bed.

"No, it's not that… I'm just supposed to be asleep, according to the bottle… maybe that's why I can't move…" I realized.

"Well, then go to sleep! I'll stay in here!" she said as she sat on the floor.

"No… I wanna sleep alone…" I groaned as I turned over on my side.

"But monokuma said two to a room…" she sighed.

"But there's seven of us…" I replied.

"Em, Akiko, and Katsu already are the group of three. I get to stay with you." she said.

I covered my face with the pillow so I couldn't see the light from outside.

"Can you at least close the door?..." I said.

I heard the sound of a door creak and shut.

"So, even though that we can't access the labs, shouldn't we make some kind of weapon?" she asked me.

"Last time I worked with someone to make weaponry, they DIED. Remember?" I said with a moan.

"Oh yeah… right. Do you know if monokuma has any pajamas?"

"I don't know, I'm sleeping fully clothed. I have been for the past 2 DAYS." I replied.

"Don't you get really sweaty?"

"No… why do you ask?"

"I just thought you were uncomfortable." she replied.

"Since when do you care about my comfort level?..."

Calliope stayed silent for a long time.

"Y'know… there's only one bed… And I don't wanna sleep on the floor…"

"No. You are not getting in bed with me. I'll sleep on the floor." I replied.

"That's kinda hard if you can't move…"

I imagined how this would play out.

Atsuto's Fantasy

I… can't sleep with someone!

Calliope climbed onto the bed and grabbed my hand with intensity.

I was extremely shocked, assuming I couldn't move and escape this.

For some reason, I got a memory of the same thing happening to someone in a hospital.

I moaned.

Yeah… no.

I tried my best to move out of the bed…

No luck.

"You know what? I'll just take a towel and a pillow and sleep in the shower. I hope that's fine with you, Atsuto." Calliope said.

I sighed a huge sigh of relief.

My eyes shut once more.

"It's your personal alarm clock, Monokuma! GET UP! IT'S THE LAST DAY OF YOUR MOTIVE! SOMEBODY BETTER FRICKIN DIE ALREADY!"

Such a great way to wake up someone in the morning… I thought.

Calliope yawned.

"How was your sleep, Atsuto? Were you comfortable this time?" she asked.

"This time? What do you mean by that?" I replied.

"I took off your blazer. You were extremely warm when I checked on you, and you were

struggling to take it off in your sleep. So… I did what every roommate would do… and helped you sleep!"

At that moment I realized my blazer was at the foot of the bed.

"Uaahh!" I screamed.

"Relax, it's not like I slept with you… I just helped… and then went back in the shower to sleep." she stated.

"Speaking of shower, CAN I HAVE MY PRIVACY?!" I yelled.

Calliope ran out of the room and slammed the door.

Oh thank GOD…

I quickly showered and got back into my clothes.

The others in my group were nearest to the steps that were blocked off.

"Since it's the last day of our motive, I figured we should try to find some food." Morino said.

"And fast! I might not have enough energy for shooting my arrows!" Akiko yelled.

Everyone in the group began to argue on what to do next.

I was just standing there.

"Maybe we can ask Monokuma if one person can go check on the other group." Katsu suggested.

"Yeah! That's a great idea!" Calliope and Koji said in unison.

"I nominate Atsuto!" Akiko stated.

"Me too." Morino replied.

"I vote Em." Calliope said.

"Atsuto." Koji replied.

"Em is my choice." Katsu said.

"Personally, I don't think I would be up for it." Em replied.

"Oh come on! Just because I hurt my hand yesterday doesn't give me an excuse to go down there!" I said hastily.

"Actually, that's a pretty good excuse to me!" Monokuma said when he appeared out of

nowhere.

Calliope, Akiko and Katsu were shocked.

Koji's face shifted.

Em and Morino stood there.

"You should get Cho to check on your hand. To be honest, I could care less, but my controller said that if there's an injury that isn't anywhere being close to death, it has to be inspected!" he yelled as I went through the wire and down the stairs.

"Hey! Atsuto-kun!" Cho yelled as he waved his hands around.

"Hiya!" Eiko said from a distance.

"Marhabaan. Hello." Eli's watch beeped.

"Ugh. Peasant." Chijimatsu scoffed.

Yori simply waved.

"Good morning." Andrew greeted.

"Hey guys. I'm just here to get my hand checked." I replied.

"Yeah, you guys don't all need to come out at once! Geez… All you paupers are useless…" Chijimatsu yelled.

"Whatever." I sighed as I walked into Cho's lab.

"Say! Your hand is clearing up fast! I'm guessing Andrew and I's concoction and the painkillers were a success!" he said excitedly.

"Oh, I have a question. Is it normal for you not to be able to move your body at all during the night when on said painkillers?" I asked him.

"No… that wasn't its original design…" he said questionably.

Cho looked at the pile of pills on his desk.

"Oh… I accidentally gave you the paralyze ones… Oopsie… Here's the right one." he said as he handed me a small, white pill.

I looked at it carefully.

It read 11037 on the back.

I wonder what that means… I thought.

"Oh wait! That's the tranquilizer one! Don't take that one unless you wanna sleep forever!" Cho said sheepishly as he took the pill back.

He flipped through the bottles in his desk until he found a bottle labeled Small Cut Pain Reducers.

"Aha! Here's the actual right one! Sorry for the mistake I made!" he said.

"It's okay, really. It actually helped my hand." I replied.

"Maybe I did get it right…" he said to himself.

I heard a knock on the lab door.

"Ugh, that peasant girl Eiko ran face first into the wall again…" Chijimatsu said as Cho rushed out of the room.

She walked into the lab and stared at me.

"Y'know, for a peasant, you aren't so bad as a co-owner…" she whispered.

"W-wha? What does that mean? Like, co-owner of your company, or…" I replied.

"Yeah. You could make metal sculptures. It's kind of like weapons, only better. I'll give you half of my profits!" She said.

"I don't believe you for a second." I replied.

"Fine. If that's how it's gonna be…" She said as she grabbed a syringe with some sort of liquid in it.

"Wait! Chijimatsu! You don't know what that could do!" I yelled as she got closer to me.

"Isn't that the fun of it?" Chijimatsu said slyly.

Cho came back in the room.

"Hey! Put that down right now Emi-san! That's my equipment!" He yelled.

She slowly put the syringe down and left the room.

"Atsuto-kun, are you alright?" Cho asked me.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Don't worry about me." I replied.

"Turns out the pill I gave you was the painkiller. I don't know why they would temporarily paralyze you though…" he said, "You can go back to your group now."

I waved goodbye as I left his lab.

"Hey Atsuto, can you come over her for a sec?" Eiko asked me.

"Sure." I simply replied.

"I don't know what's going on, but Chijimatsu is acting a bid weirder than usual…" she whispered.

"In what way?" I asked.

"Well, for starters, she got pretty hostile to Yori when he said she needed to make sculptures of famous lawyers and judges. She thought he was making fun of her expertise, so she punched him. I really don't know why…" Eiko replied.

"Yeah, just a second ago, she came up to me with a syringe…" I whispered.

"You too? Man, we're all gonna die if she's still alive!" She quietly said to me.

I heard a door shut.

I couldn't tell where it came from though.

"Kagaji! Time to go back to your group!" Monokuma yelled.

I sighed as I walked back up the stairs and the wire closed once more.

"So… what did you discover?" Katsu asked me.

"Chijimatsu is acting strange. She first hurts Yori and then comes up to me with a syringe…" I replied.

"She's going to kill someone, that's for sure. Just know that if someone dies down there, Chijimatsu is the culprit!" Akiko yelled.

"Don't jump to conclusions. This might all be an act." Em said quietly.

"Maybe Atsuto is lying. I'm not sure though. Just a guess." Calliope said.

"I'm not lying, I swear!" I yelled.

"I believe him." Morino said.

"Are we going to have another one of these 'group opinion' thingies?" Akiko said.

"Whatever. Still… if Chijimatsu really is going crazy… is it because of the motive? Does she need food that bad?" Koji asked the group.

"They have food down there. I don't really know what their motive is…" I replied.

"So this whole time they've been feasting themselves?" Calliope asked with her eyes widening.

"No, just off of the stuff inside their labs. Apparently, Chijimatsu has a refrigerator full of fancy cheeses in there." Em stated.

"How do you know that?" Akiko yelled.

"Atsuto remembers when I came down there. While the two of them were arguing, I took a tour of the labs. Atsuto's still had dried blood on the floor from Riho." Em replied.

"Ok, note to self, don't step there. Put some disinfectant in the room so it doesn't smell like a corpse…" I whispered to myself.

"I wish I had my rifle so I could just end the Chijimatsu problem." Morino stated.

"You mean KILL HER?!" Akiko yelled at the top of her lungs.

"No… just scare her into thinking I would kill her. I learned that it's a good tactic when trying to capture an enemy. THEN you kill them." he replied.

"But still…" Katsu said, his voice turning into a whine-like tone.

"Since Atsuto's hand is healed, I guess we can't go have him investigate for us… awww….." Calliope said, her voice also sounding like a whine.

"In my opinion, that's a good thing." I said.

"Whatever. I'm going back to my dorm to ponder about all of this." Em said as she walked away.

"Yeah, me too." Morino and Katsu said in unison.

"Ugh… I guess I have to…" Akiko sighed as she too, walked away.

Koji, Calliope and I stood there still.

"Anyone up for a water challenge?" Koji said.

Calliope walked away.

I did as well.

"Guys? Anyone?" I heard his voice fade.

"Even though it's still the morning, might as well let time pass and sleep." Calliope said as she grabbed her pillow and towel and headed for the shower in our room.

The painkiller bottle was sitting on the nightstand.

"I guess it won't hurt if I help my hand a little more…" I said as I swallowed it.

I then collapsed on the bed.

"Attention Hope's Peak Students! A body has FINALLY been discovered! The gates for Kagaji's group have been opened! Time to investigate!"

I slowly got up from the bed.

How much time has past?... I thought to myself as I rubbed my eyes.

Calliope shot up from her slumber.

"Another body? Geez, I would have thought this motive would last forever. At least I can eat again…" she said as she got up and followed me out of the door.

Em and the others were crowded outside the lab of Chijimatsu.

"What the fu-" Morino started to say about the room, but then stared at something on the floor.

I assumed Chijimatsu killed someone.

But… what I didn't expect…

Body Discovery (Insert Danganronpa OST here)

The room was completely destroyed. Blood filled around the neck of Chijimatsu Emi, where a hole stood. A carving knife was placed inside of her chest. Her body was in no arranged position, but laid next to a destroyed sculpture. The original witnesses were Eli, Yori, and Andrew.

Guess who's back

Back again

Sophie's back

FANFICTION!

(if you don't watch CDawg VA then you aren't human)

As you can see, MY HIATUS IS OVER!

I actually worked on this!

It's pretty long, and I'm sorta proud of that.

We actually got a character arc for some of the people!

It will take me awhile to get the investigation and trial done so don't expect it to be immediate

Also, I'm working on a story with 0growlet (a person in my school) on basically Fading Life on steroids and a ton of memes

I mean there is an Ultimate Memer so uh yeah

I basically know the plotline and the murder plans for the rest of the story, but I don't exactly know what sort of details and/or motives to add

But other than that I have a plan!

Stay tuned and stay hopeful for Atsuto as he goes through the second class trial!

Ps: I wanna do a bonus-like scene where all the dead people meet up to watch the trials in a movie theatre but trulyconfused already did that so I guess I won't
