"Now then, I wish the 17 of you the best of luck," Monokuma said.
"Um there's more than 17 of us actually" Clank said.
"Well fighters with little buddies, or alternative personalities count as one" Monokuma said, pointing to Cole and Evil Cole.
"Excuse me, I am not a 'little being' " Clank said. "I am my own individual-"
"Oh shut up Robot Boy," Monokuma said. "Or I'll make an example of you"
"An example of me?" Clank asked. "You mean using me as a way to bind to your rules?"
"Clank, give it a rest" Ratchet said.
"If you keep questioning my rules, I'll have to punish you so you can shut up," Monokuma said.
"Punishment? You mean a slap on the wrist? A time out? A-"
Suddenly a swarm of spears popped up from the ground, stabbing Clank. Unfortunately, Clank was sitting on Ratchet's head so the poor lombax was the one who took all the gunir spears.
"Ratchet?!" Clank said.
"Darn, killed the wrong person," Monokuma said.
Ratchet falls to the floor. Everyone screams and panics.
"Can people stop dying for 5 seconds?!" Spike screamed.
"Ok that one's on me" Monokuma said. "I'll take the lombax to the infirmary. You guys worry about killing each other"
Two more monokumas appear with a stretcher and take Ratchet to the infirmary, Clank follows them.
Everyone else was excused and they all headed to the cafeteria. It was clear that everyone in the room was traumatized. Even Fat Princess wasn't scarfing down on cake.
"So this is it then" Parappa said. "We're in a killing game"
Toro cries. Jak pats his head.
"I can't believe this," Spike said. "Who is that bear to think he can control our lives?"
"And he's already killed so many of our friends," Nathan Drake said. "Now he wants us to kill each other"
"Well, we don't have to play his little game," Parappa said. "We should all work together and find an escape and no one has to die"
"The dog is finally talking some sense" Evil Cole said. "But how are we going to do that?"
"Yeah… I know" Parappa said. He stood up on the table. "I gotta believe-"
Ding dong ding dong.
Monokuma appears on the intercoms.
"Ahem, this is a school- I mean tournament announcement. It is now 10pm. Everyone must report to bed immediately. The castle will go into lock down in 10 minutes." Monokuma said. "And don't worry about Ratchet. My nurses made quick work of him. He should be able to return Tommorow. Unless one of you decides to kill him in the hospital"
The announcement ends and everyone leaves for bed.
As Spike leaves for bed, he notices Parappa, Toro and Kuro talking in the hall.
"So are you guys like a thing now or something?" Parappa asked.
"Yeah, a thing of best friends," Kuro said.
"Uhh never mind." Parappa said.
"Parappa, if anything happens to us, you'll try to find out who killed us right?" Toro asked.
"Of course. Anything for a friend. All I gotta do is believe"
Spike tried to hold in his laughter. Parappa and his "I gotta believe" Mentality hasn't aged a day.
The all stars went to bed. And Tomorrow, everyone will be alive.
Unless?
