The next morning Komaeda let Chiaki sleep in since she hadn't received any new gifts. A while later Hajime arrived, but Chiaki was still asleep. Komaeda suggested Hajime wake her up to which he agreed. Soon Hajime walked upstairs to where Chiaki was sleeping. "Chiaki" Hajime said giving her a little nudge "are you up?". Chiaki remained asleep. "Chiaki" Hajime said shaking a little harder. "Good morning" Chiaki said as she slowly woke up. Hajime sighed in relief. "I need to get changed so.." Chiaki said. "Oh" Hajime said a bit shocked" yeah I'll wait for you downstairs.
Hajime and Komaeda waited outside till Chiaki came out in her usual attire. "Glad to see you up and about after you slept for so long" Komaeda said. "Yeah you had me a bit worried" Hajime said. "Really I guess I never knew how much you two depended on me" Chiaki said. Komaeda and Hajime were a bit confused by chiakis statement. "It would be a shame if something happened to me and you two would fall into despair" Chiaki continued. Hajime and Komaeda became increasingly worried. "Hey are you okay Chiaki" Hajime asked. "Never better" Chiaki replied "I feel so wonderful I might even laugh". Suddenly Chiaki bursted into an all to familiar laugh. "Upupupu" Chiaki laughed much to Hajimes and komaedas horror. "Did she do this to you?" Komaeda asked even though he knew the answer. "What are you talking about?" Hajime asked. "He's talking about my big sis" Chiaki laughed. "Big sis?" Komaeda and Hajime asked in unison. "She means me" a cold feminine voice pierced the air, Hajime and Komaeda looked towards where the voice came from. "Big sis you're here" Chiaki said happily as she ran to her side. "Tadaa" junko said in her extravagant voice. "Did you miss me Hajime". Hajime stood in horror while Komaeda bit his lip. "Oh big sis I'm so glad you're here" Chiaki said as she hugged junko. "Of course you know I wouldn't leave you like those boys" junko said as she hugged Chiaki back. "What's going on" Hajime asked desperate as he fell to his knees. "Allow me to explain" junko said "you see my dear Chiaki knew I was here the whole time, but she never told you cause she thought you would delete me". Komaeda got even angrier. "She tried so hard to trust and rehabilitate me" junko said "but in the end my hunger for despair was stronger. So over the last few days I had a program made that would let my little sis see the wonders of despair". "Why Chiaki" Hajime asked. "Why not Chiaki" junko said "after all you all love her so much even izuru was coming on to her". Hajime was starting to loose it. Chiaki walked up to Hajime and bent down. "It's your own fault for loving me so much" Chiaki said before kissing Hajime on the lips. It was at that moment Hajime broke and fell unconscious causing him to automatically log out.
"Aww I broke him" Chiaki said. "Don't worry little sis he'll come crawling back in no time" junko reassured. "What's the matter Komaeda" Chiaki said as she walked towards him. "How dare you" Komaeda said "how dare you use cheap tactics to force Chiaki into despair". "But Komaeda I don't care" Chiaki said as she held his hands "hope and despair don't matter to me". Komaeda looked confused as Chiaki forced him down on his knees. "What matters is I make my big sis proud" Chiaki said as she looked down on Komaeda "and that means crushing the hearts of anyone who ever loved me". Suddenly Chiaki yawned. "Ah all this talking is so tiring" Chiaki said. "Don't worry you can sleep once we get back to the house" junko said "and while we're there maybe we can get you a new set of clothes". "Okay anything for you big sis" Chiaki said as she followed junko to the gate. "Stop" Komaeda yelled. "What do you want?" Junko asked annoyed. "Leave Chiaki alone she's done nothing to hurt you" Komaeda demanded. "Does it look like I care" junko said "besides Chiaki isn't in any danger now that she's my little sis". "She'll be perfectly safe as long as she's with me " Junko said as she patted chiakis head "now do us a favor and leave us alone for awhile". Than the two turned their backs and left through the gate leaving Komaeda all alone.
Outside the neo world Hajime gasped for air in a cold sweat. "What happened in there" fuyuhiko asked as all the survivors rushed to hajimes side. "She's in there" Hajime panted "Junko Enoshima is in the neo world". Everyone gasped in horror. " how did that crazy bitch survive?" Fuyuhiko asked. "I don't know but she's been there the whole time" Hajime said tears streaming down his eyes. "Is Chiaki safe" Sonia asked worriedly. Hajime shuttered at the thought. "Hajime what happened?" Akane asked. "Junko changed her" Hajime said. "Into what" akane asked. Hajime explained what happened in the neo world. "We have to do something than" Sonia said. "Maybe we can get alter ego to help" Souda suggested as he typed into his laptop. "Yah that might work" Sonia said. Alter ego appeared on the the computer screen. "Good morning what can I do for you?" Alter ego asked. "We have a major problem" Sonia said "junko is in the neo world and she's done something to chiaki". "That is very inconvenient" alter ego stated "however there is still time to fix this". "What do we do" akane said. "First we need to assess chiakis condition" alter ego stated"Hajime since you saw her explain her behavior". Hajime took a deep breath. "She acted completely opposite to how she normally is" Hajime explained. "In that case it's possible that she contracted the despair disease" alter ego said "if we had more information I could make an antivirus". "How do you suppose we do that" fuyuhiko said. "If someone gets close to her" alter ego "they can tag her with this scanner that will examine her data". "I'll do it" Hajime said. "Are you sure you can do it" alter ego said "I know how important Chiaki is to you but you have to focuse". "I'll go with him than and keep him focused" fuyuhiko offered. "Okay than I'll prepare the scanner" alter ego said "Souda can you hook me up to hajimes headset?". Souda happily obliged. "Are you ready Hajime" Fuyuhiko asked. "Yeah" Hajime said. "Alright the scanners in place" alter ego said "whenever you're ready". Hajime and fuyuhiko sat down and put on the headsets.
When Hajime and fuyuhiko arrived at the hotel grounds Komaeda was sitting in silence. "What happened?" Hajime asked "Where's Chiaki?". "She and junko left through the gate" Komaeda informed "but I don't know where they could have gone". Hajime bit his lip in frustration. "Relax I'm sure we can find them" fuyuhiko said "let's go". "Wait" Komaeda said "please let me come with you". Hajime and fuyuhiko paused. "Why should we trust you" fuyuhiko said. "I care about Chiaki she doesn't deserve this" Komaeda said. "Fine" Hajime said "but you better not betray us". Komaeda nodded and than the trio walked towards the gate.
The area beyond the gate was an expanse of are filled with giant holes of deleted data. They walked for a long time in search of any building. "Junko mentioned something about a house" Komaeda informed. "She could mean the funhouse" fuyuhiko suggested. "Than lets go to the fourth island"Hajime said as he bolted forward. "Hold on" fuyuhiko said tugging on hajimes shirt "take it easy and calm the fuck down". Hajime stopped in his tracks. "Yeah Chiaki would tell me to stay calm in this kind of situation" Hajime said. The three than walked across the bridge to the fourth island. Once they got to the fourth island they were alarmed to see a crazy looking building where the Nzumi castle once was. "Are you ready?" Fuyuhiko asked. "Ready" Komaeda and Hajime said in unison.
They carefully opened the main door to find a monotone throne room. Inside there was a big throne with a monokuma on it and a little throne with a plush bunny on it. "Hey hey hey will you look at that" junkos voice echoed from above "I knew I sensed some naughty boys intruding". "Where's Chiaki" Hajime demanded. "Relax she's fine just taking a nap" junko said "you should be more concerned for your own safety". Just than a trapdoor opened under Fuyuhikos feet causing him to fall in. "Besides do you care about my lil sis that much" junko said "how do I know you're not going to abandon her like you always do". Hajime clenched his fist as Komaeda tried to calm him down. "If you really want to see her again Go ahead" junko said " but know that she's not in any danger". Junkos voice went silent. "Come on we need to keep moving" Komaeda said.
