First off, many thanks to those who reviewed this fic, I really appreciated it and this gave me inspiration to work on the next chapter and here the current story arc picks up where the last chapter left, in which Byakya Togami continue to have bad days, but his day would eventually get worse, as someone has an eye for him and that's where the story kicks in, so read on and enjoy!

Several minutes later, the scene shifts at the gate of Hope's Peak Academy where all of the students have left, and as the school is about to close down for the day, the scene shows that a woman, who is nearing her 20's, came out from the school gate, and there she is cheerful as she had a wonderful day teaching several classes. She is identified as Chisa Yukizome, and she is heading out after a day of teaching classes at Hope's Peak.

"Ah...another good day has passed...and I'm glad to spend the day without trouble..."

By then, two men came and greeted Yukizome, and she smiled seeing the two men greeting her and the three began exchanging pleasantries as if they know each other for a long time.

"Yukizome..."

"Ahh...guys!"

"You looked like you're enjoying yourself..."

"You haven't changed at all since our high school days..."

"I can say the same for the two of you..."

"Really..."

"Jeez...stop fooling around, Yukizome..."

"Ehe-he-he...that's just the real me, guys..."

The two men whom Yukizome greeted were identified as Kyosuke Munakata and Juzo Sakakura, and it turns out that the three were students from Hope's Peak Academy, having graduated some time ago, and Yukizome started teaching there for six months, while Sakakura began his career as a pro boxer while Munakata began plans to created an international version of Hope's Peak. As their careers implied, Munkakata graduated and had the title of Super High School-Level Student Council President, Sakakura had the title of Super High School-Level Boxer, and Yukizome had the title of Super High School-Level Housekeeper.

It turns out that Yukizome became a teacher there due to Munakata's recommendation to Jin Kirigiri, and right now the three alumni are going on a walk to spend some time hanging out to make up for lost time as classmates and friends.

Believe It Or Not by Joey Scarbury
(Opening Song from The Greatest American Hero)

Look at what's happened to me,
I can't believe it myself;
Suddenly I'm up on top of the world,
Should've been somebody else.

Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me.

Just like the light of new day,
It hit me from out of the blue;
Breakin' me out of the spell I was in,
Makin' all of my wishes come true.

Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me.

Ch. 60: Saion no Saiaku no Yoru to Hiru

Much later, the scene shift at the Togami mansion, where the limousine arrived, and Togami went inside, and the servants noted to see that their young master appeared in a disarray, his clothes wrinkled, his eyeglasses bent, his hair a mess and he looked like he had just gotten into a fight, nevertheless they all greeted him with respect as to show him courtesy, not minding that he is in a bad mood, just to let him know that they are in his service no matter what in order to lessen the bad mood he is in and make him feel better.

"Good day, Byakuya-sama..."

Togami ignored them and he went straight to his room where he took off his clothes and put on his bathrobe and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower, and he is still pissed off at the events that happened today at the academy, and he is not pleased at how he was taken for a fool, as he couldn't believe that he got spooked by a manga and he still refuses to believe that a GUY IN A RED SUIT exists, and hoped that it stays that way and he does not want his father to find out about it to avoid getting another mouthful of sermon.

-x-

After taking a shower, he went to his room and dries himself up, and after putting his clothes on, he began reading the files which are the stocks belonging to the Togami Enterprises, and so far things went well there and he hoped that he does not encounter any trouble which he wanted to avoid, all due to the nightmare he had, and a few hours later, it was dinner and Togami went to the dining hall to have dinner and by this time his father arrived from work and joined his son in having dinner, and while eating, his father started a conversation, and soon Togami is dismayed at where the discussion is going to.

"Byakuya..."

"Yes, father?"

"I heard it..."

"What?"

"You showed weakness at that academy...getting freaked out over a commoner's manga...letting yourself get assaulted by a mental patient..."

"Here we go again..."

"Must I have to repeat myself? When will you learn that as heir, you must show your superiority over those who are lowliest of all?"

"..."

Togami's father told his son that his informants told him of what happened at Hope's Peak Academy, in which the heir is getting spooked by a commoner's manga and that he allowed himself to be assaulted by a mental patient, and voiced his displeasure at how his son did not show his superiority towards those below him and reminded him that as a Togami, he must show that he is a force to be reckoned with, and Togami rolled his eyes as he had to put up with his father's repetitive sermon, and hoped that his father would shut up.

"Are you listening to me?"

"..."

"Don't you ignore me!"

"Give me a break..."

"What was that?"

"I already heard it...you don't have to repeat it..."

"I'm doing this for your own good!"

"And how good is that?"

As Togami tries to finish his dinner, he is startled when he noticed something went past him which he noticed that some object was wearing something red and black, and that something zoomed past him again until it stopped, where it turns out to be his younger cousin, and he is wearing an imitation of the red suit, and Togami stared in disbelief at what he is seeing, and there the younger cousin said that he bought it from costume shop, saying that it is now a popular commodity due to the popularity of a manga, and when Togami asks what manga is about, the younger cousin showed it, which is titled THE MISADVENTURES OF CAPTAIN GONZO, and Togami stood back and his eyes twitched seeing that it was the same manga that caused him discomfort earlier at Hope's Peak Academy, and the younger cousin tries recommending it to his elder cousin, but Togami is showing signs of developing a phobia towards the manga, and the imitation red suit.

"Byakuya-itoko...here...you should read it...it is interesting..."

"..."

"Byakuya-itoko?"

"Get that thing away from me!"

"Huh?"

"DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME...GET THAT THING AWAY!"

"It's nothing to be afraid of...here...it's about a superhero...I'm sure you'll like it...here...see?"

"GGGYYYAAHHH!"

The Togami patriarch watches the scene in dismay at seeing how his son reacted, and his adviser whispered to the patriarch and suggested that they hire a psychologist to try to find out why the heir is acting like that and he agreed, seeing that this is the only way to get his son back to his feet, and took out his cellphone to call a psychologist and makes an appointment to have the psychologist visit the Togami mansion at the soonest possible time.

-x-

Two days later, the scene shifts to a bank, where Naegi is on an errand to deposit money, and the queue is quite long, and he sighed as he had to wait, but to his surprise, Kyoko Kirigiri is also there and is coincidentally doing an errand in the bank, and there she asks him how things are doing, which he said is fine.

"Things are okay."

"I see..."

"Yeah..."

"But be on your guard..."

"Huh?"

"Togami is still on the edge given his reaction to the manga character that your sister invented.."

"Yeah..."

"And...huh?"

All of the sudden, four men in ski masks barged in after disabling the guards, and announced a holdup and demanded that the customers and depositors to surrender their valuables, and Kirigiri asks Naegi if he is wearing the red suit underneath his casual clothes, and he sighed as he gets what shew is suggesting to do.

"Eh? You can't be...?"

"Trust me on this...we need to disarm them and you're the only one..."

"I can't...not in front of..."

"Try to subtly use the suit's power...you don't have to change costume..."

"Okay..."

"I'll try a distraction...when you see an opening..."

"Okay...I get the drill..."

"Good..."

As the depositors panicked, Kirigiri stood up and distracted the masked bank robbers and taunted them, allowing Naegi to sneak out of sight and hid behind a large table, and secretly used his legs and feet to push the table, and because he is wearing the red suit underneath his clothes, he is able to use the suit's power and pushed the table, sending it towards the bank robbers and knocked down two of them, but disarmed them in the process.

There the depositors used the chance to pin down two of the robbers but the other two made a run for it and boarded a getaway car and fled. Kirigiri then found another car, and finding a hidden key, she drives the car to chase the robbers. Naegi went to the roof band shed off his clothes and emerged wearing the red suit and cape, and ran off before jumping, and sadly, he still has little control over his flight pattern and he is swinging his arms just to stay airborne, and he is flying in a zigzag motion but managed to keep track of where the robbers are heading.

Elsewhere, the scene shifts to a park in front of the streets where Munaata, Sakkaura and Yukizome are there, enjoying the quiet time and are hanging out together, and there Munakata is taking a break from his duty of constructing an overseas version of Hope's Peak Academy and Sakakura is currently taking a break after winning the number one contender's bout, and Yukizome is trying to liven up the mood, saying that this is the first time in a year since they last hang out together.

"Ahh...this is relaxing...it's been a long time since we last hang out together like this..."

"Yukizome...you didn't have to do this...you should be resting after spending five days at the academy...you should have used the opportunity of taking advantage of the emergency meeting to rest..."

"Munakata's right...you should have..."

"Boys...I'm fine...really..."

"Yukizome..."

"Geez..."

"I know! I'll buy us some snacks! I'll be back..."

"Munakata...I'll buy us some coffee..."

"Fine..."

As the two left, Munakata was left alone, and he is sitting on a bench thinking of his next course of action, as he has ambitious plans to take over the position of Jin Kirigiri as headmaster of Hope's Peak, but then he is rather startled when the robbers inside the car sped past him, then 10 seconds later, Kirigiri is chasing the robbers inside a car, and Munakata sighed seeing that it is going to be a stressful day.

"Seriously..."

However, Munakata blinked his eyes when he saw Naegi fell to the ground, and saw him wearing the red suit and cape, and he watched in disbelief as Naegi gets up, tries to jump in order to fly, but trips down. Naegi gets up and tries to jump, but trips down again, his cape draped over his head. Naegi is getting a bit impatient and moves away from Munakata's sight and Munakata stared wide-eyed as he wondered if today's youth are getting more brazen, seeing that it is very UNBELIEVABLE that someone would go out in public doing a "crazy cosplay".

"The youth today are more brazen than the ones in my days..."

By then Sakakura came back and offered Munakata a cup of coffee which he eagerly took it and Sakakura asks Munakata if he is feeling okay.

"Here you go..."

"Thanks, Sakakura..."

"You okay?"

"..."

"Munakata...?"

"I'm fine..."

"You sure?"

"Yes."

As Sakakura turned around, he knelt down as he is going to tie his shoelaces, and as Munakata is sipping his cup of coffee, he felt relaxed until he caught a glimpse of Naegi running, then jumped until he flew in the air, and Munakata spits his coffee and stared wide-eyed in surprise, dropping his cup of coffee in utter shock which caught Sakakura's attention and the boxer appeared concerned as he never saw his former classmate react like that.

"FFFFFFFFFTTTTTT!"

"Huh? Munakata...?"

"..."

"Hey, are you okay...?"

"You...you saw that..right...?"

"Huh? Saw what?"

"I saw a kid...he's wearing a red suit with a cape...he ran..he jumped..and flew!"

"Huh? What are you..."

"I SAW IT! A TEENAGER JUST FLY IN THE AIR!"

"Munakata...calm down...!"

"I SAW IT WITH MY OWN EYES! THERE'S A KID FLYING!"

"Get a hold of yourself! You're not making any sense! What you're saying is impossible!"

"I'm not lying! I saw it!"

"I think you're getting stressed..."

"I'm not!"

"Geez..."

By then Yukizome came back and is carrying snacks and saw her two former classmates grappling with each other and asks Sakarura what is going on, in which he told her that Munakata is acting ballistic.

"Sakakura...what's wrong with Kyosuke-kun?"

"Munakata's acting weird..."

"I AM NOT ACTING WEIRD! I'M TELLING YOU WHAT I SAW!"

"Kyosuke-kun...calm down...what did you saw?"

"A KID WEARING A SUIT...AND A CAPE...HE RAN...HE JUMPED...THEN HE FLEW IN THE AIR!"

"Munakata...you're acting delusional!"

"I AM NOT! I KNOW WHAT I SAW!"

"Yukizome...let's take him home...I think he needed some rest..."

"I agree...let's go, Kyosuke-kun..."

"I'M NOT CRAZY! I'M TELLING THE TRUTH! I SAW A KID WEARING A SUIT AND FLEW LIKE SUPERMAN!"

Fearing Munakata's outburst might attract a scene, Yukizome and Sakarkura carries Munakata and are talking him to a nearby hotel where he is currently staying, unaware that Munakata did saw Naegi wearing the red suit and flew, and Naegi is unaware that he had been witnessed by a former Hope's Peak Academy alumni about what he did, and little that he knew that it would cause him trouble in the near future.

-x-

A few days later, the scene shifts to the living room of the Togami mansion, where Togami is lying on a couch while the hired psychologist sits at a separate chair, talking to him and asks what is bothering him and why is he flustered over a manga and its character, wanting to know what is making him tick, and though Togami sees this as a waste of time, he decided to get this over with and told him what he knows, and the psychologist finds it unbelievable about Togami's claim that a FLYING GUY exists, and responded by saying it is all in Togami's mind and perhaps the stress of juggling both being the president if his company and attending Hope's Peak Academy may have caused an effect in his mind and made him imagine things, which Togami finds it absurd but opted not to react and feigned following the psychologist's advice.

"...and that's your reason, Mr. Togami?"

"...yes..."

"I think it's all in your mind...you must be suffering from stress due to managing your company and attending Hope's Peak Academy..."

"..."

"And I believe those caused you to get delusional..."

"What was that?"

"Believe me...it's all in your mind..."

"..."

After that, the session ended and the psychologist advised the Togami patriarch to let his son take time off from managing the company for at least a month so he can rest his mind, and the patriarch did not like the idea yet he is willing to follow if it would help his son get over the absurd claim about a flying guy, and paid the psychologist, and the day ended without problem, and Togami went to his room to rest, feeling that the session with the psychologist did not help much.

-x-

The next few days seemed to have worked, as Togami did not suffer any problems brought about by seeing anything related to the flying guy, and he is relieved that the schoolmate from Hope's Peak Academy did not bug him with the manga and things went well, and later that night, he went to his bed, and is staring at the ceiling, slowly recalling the first time he saw a flying guy in a red suit, and wondered why it riled him so much, and wondered why recent sightings of him kept bugging him up to this day and he wanted to know why.

"Really...why am I getting riled up by that manga character...?"

Eventually, Togami drifted to sleep and he appeared to be in a peaceful slumber until he is startled when he felt his bed shaking, and as he opened his eyes, he is surprised to see that he is at outdoors, and in the skies, and as he peered under the bed, he is surprised to see the flying guy, who resembled CAPTAIN GONZO, carrying the bed, and he grinned at Togami, telling him that he is doing this to make Togami acknowledge the fact that CAPTAIN GONZO is real and really exist, and Togami is shaken at this and demanded that he puts his bed down at once.

"What...? Naegi?"

"Yes...aka Captain Gonzo..."

"What is the meaning of this?"

"So...have you made up your mind? Have you decided to acknowledge me? That the FLYING GUY exists?"

"No! Never! I refuse to believe it! You're not real! There's no such thing as a flying guy! Now bring me down this instant!"

"You refuse?"

"I refuse! I won't be intimidated by a guy who is wearing a pajama and a cape!"

"I see...perhaps this will change your mind..."

Grinning, CAPTAIN GONZO began to carry the bed and flew downwards in a fast speed, and Togami held onto the bed sheet as he feels that he is going to fall,, and he is shrieking in panic as things happened to fast and CAPTAIN GONZO demanded that Togami acknowledge him which the Scion refuses and the flying guy flew down faster and Togami shrieked louder as they are about to crash onto the ground, and the scene fades in black as Togami screamed louder, and after a few moments the scene lit up, showing that Togami had another nightmare as he is sprawled on the bedroom floor, and his servants came rushing in after bearing him screaming and they began asking him if he is okay.

"Byakuya-sama!"

"Are you okay?"

"..."

"He has a nightmare!"

"Help him up!"

"Bring him some water!"

"Get a hold of yourself, Byakuya-sama!"

As the servants help him up, Togami's eyes were twitching and he is seething that he had another nightmare and he wondered why he had another dream with a subject he hated and is wondering if he is losing his mind or not, and orders his servants to leave him alone, and the servants did and when alone, Togami is pondering if he is going crazy or not, wanting to wish that the flying guy never existed and willed himself to forget the nightmare he had before forcing himself to go to sleep.

-x-

The next day, Togami is ready to go to Hope's Peak Academy, and he is hoping that nothing bad would happen to this day after getting another sermon from his father, and by then he learned that his chauffeur is having the day off thus Togami would have to travel by himself, which his butler, Aloysius, asks his master if this is okay with him, which Togami felt that this is a good way to unwind to get his mind off the nightmare that he had earlier in the morning.

"Are you sure, young master?"

"Yes..."

"But..."

"I'll be fine, Aloysius..."

"But still..."

"Trust me...it's a good way to unwind after the nightmares that I had..."

"Are you sure about this?"

"Yes..and don't worry about me.."

Togami assured that it is okay, and took his bag and leaves the mansion, and as Togami is walking the streets, he felt that traveling by himself seemingly worked, as he is slowly getting his mind at ease and is slowly forgetting the nightmare he had, though he slightly regretted the fact that he'll have to travel by himself, meaning that he would have to mingle with commoner passengers in a bus, yet he is willing to put up with it, as long as no one is bothering him.

However, a van cruises by and its side door opened, and a pair of hands appeared and grabbed Togami and loaded him inside the van before the side door closes and the can drives away towards parts unknown, and no one seemed to have witnessed the abduction of Byakuya Togami.

To Be Continued...

Hope you like this second chapter of the new story arc and things got into a rather hilarious turn as Togami had a really bad day...and night...and another bad day, due to him having VISIONS...and a nightmare... about Naegi wearing the red suit. Moreover, he just got kidnapped and this would cause problems for the Togami family once they learned that the heir went missing.

And surprise, three characters appeared, and they are from Danganronpa 3: The End Of Hope's Peak Academy ~ Side Future arc. I watched the first episode and I liked it, though it was a shame that Yukizome got killed at the end just as I was liking the character. Munakata is as cold as ice, and this made me remind of Togami during the first anime's run.

Since Munakata's attitude were cold and similar to Togami's, I came up with something to poke fun with, so I had him witness Naegi as the SUPER GUY, and Munakata gets to sow off his comedic moment, and this would be another running gag in addition to Togami's.

In the previous chapters, I said that I might not bring in some DR 3 characters since the anime was not available at the time, and after watching the first episode, I decided to have them appear here as an experiment, and if the reception is good, I might add more DR 3 characters in future chapters.

Preview:

The story gets underway as the Class of 78 begins to notice that Togami went missing...and Naegi might get himself involved...

See you in in 12 days or less...

Reviews are welcomed...
