Many thanks to those who read and reviewed this fic. I really appreciated it and this gave me inspiration to work on the next chapter and here, the rest of the Danganronpa characters are set to look for the others before planning an attempt to escape the island even though there is the threat that giant insects showing up unexpectedly…
But right now…an unexpected tragedy is about to take place…
Well then, read on and enjoy!
Ch. 41: Kurūzu-sen ni mukatte isogu part 1
The scene shifts at the shore where Celestia arrived as she is pushing the wheeled speedboat, which has several barrels of fuel, and there she is smirking as she believes that her classmates and the adults are busy with the giant firefly larvae, seemingly not minding that they would get killed in the process, and there she pushed it towards the waters and began to start the engine, and there she smirked as she is all set to escape the island.
"Hee-hee…free at last…"
After that, she sped away, not caring about what happens next, and did not notice that another boat arrived at the shore, where it shows that a huge ship is anchored at another distance at the other side of the shore, and there two sailors were dismayed at seeing Celestia leave, as they were hoping that they would ask her for help.
"Damn…"
"We just missed her…"
"There goes our chance to get help…"
"She looked like she's in a hurry…"
"Now what?"
"Well…"
"We need to do something…"
"Yeah, yeah…"
As the sailors are weighing in on what options they should take, they glanced at the forested area and they wondered if there are people there, which they hope that there are, as the sailors needed to get help no matter what, not knowing that Naegi and Kirigiri's groups are heading their way, which might give them hope in escaping the island.
"Say…"
"Huh?"
"Think there are people here?"
"Who knows…"
"Hopefully there are…we could…"
"And you think they could…?"
"Well…"
"Don't expect anything out of the blue…"
The two sailors decided to risk it all as they went forward towards the forest to see if they could get help, not knowing that they are about to encounter some survivors who are determined to escape the island, and there the two sailors proceeded to head through the forest, as they wondered if there are people here who might assist them even though they have a feeling that there might be no one here.
"Wonder if there are people there…"
"You think there are…?"
"Who knows…"
"I doubt it…"
"We should give it a try…"
"Even if there are people there…I doubt it might change our situation…"
"Its better than nothing…"
"Oh, fine…"
As the sailors are running through the forested area, they suddenly came to a stop as another group from the opposite direction appeared, and both groups stopped upon encountering one another, where Takaki Ishimaru approached the two sailors and asked them to identify themselves and state their business, in which the two sailors identified themselves and there Kirigiri approached the two and asked what brought them here.
The sailors explained that they came here to get help, and reluctantly told them that their ship was being besieged by a GIANT CENTIPEDE, causing the Hope's Peak Academy students and the other survivors to stare in disbelief upon hearing this, and Takaki asked the two sailors for confirmation, as he wanted to be sure if the two sailors are telling the truth.
"Did I hear you correctly…?"
"…"
"…"
"A GIANT CENTIPEDE you say…?"
"Yes."
"That's right…"
"And it's out there…?"
"Yes, that's correct…"
"It's the truth…"
Aoi was visibly disturbed upon hearing that a giant centipede is out there and Ohgami calmed her down while Yasuhiro was visibly shaken at the thought though Hiroko smacked her son on the head and told him to MAN UP and stop acting like a scaredy-cat, which the SHSL Fortune Teller said that he can't help it as he hated centipedes, and if they are gigantic then he would faint, earning another smack on the head.
"Stop acting like a chicken, son."
But…"
"You're already 19."
"But…"
"So act your age and stop squealing like a girl."
"But …"
"I mean it."
"But …"
Maizono held Naegi's arm as she became worried, though he assured to her that things would be okay, telling her that they will all head back to the mainland and resume their normal lives as students of Hope's Peak Academy, which puts her at ease, and she hugged him in relief, though this earned the suspicious ire of Satomi and she asked him if he is trying to make a move on Maizono, which he honestly deny the accusations.
"Hey!"
"Huh?"
"What are you doing to Sayaka?"
"I…"
"You better not try SEDUCING her…!"
"I'm not!"
"You sure?"
"Honest!"
Likewise, Yui whispered to Kirigiri, commenting that this might be a difficult situation that they are facing right now, saying that if what the sailors say is true, then defeating a giant centipede won't be such an easy task to pull off given a centipede's physiology, since it is said that it would be difficult to take down if it is GIGANTIC in size.
"Kyoko…"
"Those two sailors doesn't appear to be lying, nee-sama…"
"If so…dealing with one is a problem already…"
"I agree…"
"So how are we to handle something like…"
"Lets wait and see before we finalize…"
"Okay…"
"…"
Togami adjusted his eyeglasses as he realized the magnitude of the situation, and he wondered if their attempt to escape this island is delayed, though his butler, Aloysius, calmly assured to him that there is another way to escape the island as they have gotten this far and that they shouldn't be disheartened or discouraged from such a situation.
"Do not be discouraged, master."
"Aloysius…"
"I am sure we can escape this nightmare…"
"…"
"You are the HEIR of the Togami Family…show your critics what you're made of…"
"Yes…you're right…"
"Feeling better now?"
"I am."
As Takaki is talking to the sailors about where the ship is anchored, things took a turn as Komaru shrieks in terror which Makoto asked what is wrong, as she pointed at a direction where three giant Garden Centipedes appeared and pounced on Kiyotaka, and immediately began to consume him, causing the SHSL Prefect to scream out in pain.
Maizono was horrified but something made her compel to rush towards her classmate but Makoto, Satomi and Ayaka held her back, telling her that it is dangerous and she shouldn't go there carelessly but the SHSL Idol reiterated that they need to save Kiyotaka or else he would get eaten alive and get killed on the spot.
"Maizono-san!"
"Sayaka!"
"Don't, Sayaka!"
"Let go! My classmate is…"
"Don't be rash, Maizono-san!"
"He's right!"
"Just calm down!"
"But…"
Ohwada and Yukimaru were horrified by this but sprang into action as they brought out the spray cans and lighters, did an improvised flamethrower and managed to scare off the three giant insects before setting them on fire, with Ohwada telling Yukimaru to torch them to death, which the latter nodded.
"Yukimaru!"
"Yeah, boss?"
"Torch those MOTHERFUCKERS!"
"Got it!"
"Burn those bastards to bits!"
"Okay!"
"We got to save my classmate!"
"I understand!"
As the three giant Garden Centipedes were burned to death, Hiroko checked on Kiyotaka, and is horrified and saddened at the SHSL Prefect's state, which the SHSL Detective checked on him, and as Takaki asked how his son is, Kirigiri is silent, and upon inspecting, Takaki stared in shock as Kiyotaka is mortally wounded, as the garden centipedes have already teared away on teen boy's flesh, as his internal organs were ripped out and exposed.
"Hiroko-san…"
"Sorry, Ishimaru…your son...he…"
"Tell me…will he…?"
"He…won't make it."
"…"
"There's nothing we can do…"
"…"
"…"
Hiroko sadly said that given that there are no hospitals here in this island, and with the gravity of his wounds, Kiyotaka will expire in a few minutes, which Takaki was distraught as Kiyotaka was dying, and the SHSL Prefect solemnly apologized, which his dad assured that he is not at fault, commending him for being a good son.
"D-dad…"
"Its okay…"
"S-sorry…I...I..."
"Don't apologize, Kiyotaka…"
"D-dad…"
"Its okay, son…it's okay…"
"…"
"…"
After a minute Kiyotaka passed away and his dad silently mourn over his son's untimely death, which the survivors were saddened and there they decided to do an impromptu burial and after several minutes Takaki had to steel himself and told the remaining survivors that this time no one else would die and they will all head back to the mainland, which the rest roared in acknowledgement.
"Okay!"
"Okay!"
"Okay!"
"Okay!"
"Okay!"
"Okay!"
"Okay!"
"Okay!"
Takaki then asked the two sailors to explain the situation about this giant centipede and where is it right now, and where is the ship located, which the two sailors told Takaki where the ship is and what the giant centipede is doing, which after a few minutes Takaki got the gist and said that they are going to survey the scene before making a final decision.
There Takaki told the two sailors that depending on the situation, they might have to sacrifice the ship if the giant centipede makes things difficult and that the lives of the survivors are on the line, which surprised the two sailors.
