Author: I know you all are probably here to read some OC be some saint or something.
However, I gonna say this now, as a learning Writer, I'm trying to improve my writing in this.
I usually like to write on third person but, a friend of mine suggests I try on a first person novel fan-fiction first, like a practice.

So here am I... Anyway, I'm not doing this fan-fiction like a half-ass writer on just focusing how their OC interact with their favorite main characters and stuff... I just want to try to create a good Danganronpa Fan-fiction on my OC's point of view.
Through most don't like those and want to get into the main story line and stuff but I hope you guys enjoy it anyway.
Since I'm building up a great story line in this one.

There was someone who asked, whether someone will be replaced in the Danganronpa class 77th or 78th sits in Hope's Peak Academy.
Answer: Don't worry about, I don't really intent to replace any of those guys, I like them together okay?
Let's just say, my OC's position will likely be different.


Chapter 2

The Young Cadet Training Camp!?


Under the steaming light of the sun.
Mikan and I sat by the bench at the side of running track stadium.

With my classmates at the distance continuing the exercise, I sat still on the bench under the large green tree, idly watching the bandage being carefully wrapped around my sprained ankle by Mikan herself.

Normally, the sight of someone bandaging me wouldn't amazed me that much but, a young girl at the age of five knowing how to use a bandage on someone and didn't seem to panic at the sight of an injury?
That is an awesome skill to behold to our age.

"Woah..." Looking at my bandaged ankle then at Mikan who seems to have snapped out from her serious mode back to her shy mode again.

Looking at her in awe, "I didn't know your this good at handling someone's injury like mine.." I cheerfully chirped at her, praising at her ability and willingness to help despite having an activity that the teacher is giving us. Before Mikan could say anything, a sudden thought suddenly came out of my mouth.
"You know, Mikan, you could become a great nurse or perhaps a doctor in the future."

Mikan stared down towards the ground with a small blush on her face, twirling her fingers together, she quietly mutter under her breath, clearly thinking about it.
"Nurse...?"

"Yeah! You know, nurse usually take care of the injured and sick people... helping them while they would listen and depend on you... same with the doctor, through they are both in and out on those parts along with other stuff I don't know." I thoughtfully explained to her, since it might also become one of her main interest in career in the future.
Even through I only known her for a year now. I could already guess and feel a great potential within her as time passed with me hanging out and getting to know her more.

Beside, with her nature of always wanting to help others or treat their minor injuries like a scratch or small cuts in such age. I could bet with my cash in the line that she could become a great nurse or perhaps a Doctor in the future if, she wanted to.

"Depend on me..?" Mikan whispered with her eyes becoming somewhat glazed for a moment, before raising her head and looked at me with a cute serious expression on her face.

"If... I become a nurse, would you'd also depend on me?"

Hearing her sudden question, I blinked. At the same time, my mind going overdrive with the imagination of mini me firing words about flags rising up in this kind of scenario I found myself in.
I may have been reincarnated as a child in this world, but, I had yet let go of my nerdy side. Since it was one of the only thing that had keep me from getting too bored when I was still a baby.

While I was busy calming down the screaming mini me in my head, I let out a soft laugh and said positively.

"Of course I would! If you become a nurse or doctor, whenever I got hurt, I would totally depend on you to patch me up again."

"I- I see." Mikan smiled happily while lowering her head, looking down on the ground with her cheeks glowing red.

'She's so cute~!' I mentally squeal as I resisted back on jumping on her and hug the life out of her, by just using my hand on patting her head without my changing my relaxed smile.

Looking at her kind and shy nature, Mikan kind of reminded me of my best friend in my past life.

Closing my eyes to hide the aching pain behind my eyes.
I... Really hope she managed to survive that catastrophe...

"Tsuki?" Mikan's voice snapped me out from my thoughts. Making me opened my eyes and saw a hand nearing close to my face.

Looking startled, she retreated her hand and just looked at me looking worriedly with both of her hands clasped together in front of her chest.

'Ara... You making her worried again.' My mind seems to scold me as I let out weak chuckle. Reassuring her, "Don't worry Mikan, just thinking."

Tearing my eyes off from the ground, I gazed at the bright blue sky while ignoring the shouts of the PE teacher in the background, I whispered under my breath.

"Just thinking of what this world has for me..."


.

Months has passed since then... I am now a first grade student of an Elementary school.
A lot had happened. Good and some unpleasant memories were created.

Like, How Mikan and I are now finally known in the school to be officially best friend together, after I fought off those who seems to have ill intent towards Mikan, and Mikan being dead set on continuing on studying anything she could get her hands on any related stuff about medicines and helping others despite most of them not liking her for some reasons.

The first semester is now over and It's now summer vacation.

I was planning on spending time with Mikan throughout the vacation but, it seems my parents this time has other plans for me.

After a few days break, my father whom had always been at work or traveling around the world according to what my mother told me, arrived with his rich black looking car that had instantly reminded me of batman's car.

With my mother literally pulling me out of my room and have me take a fresh bath while packing some stuff on a bag that suspiciously fitted my size, and my father who stood at the side was talking to someone on the phone, seemingly waiting for us.

After my mother was done with whatever she's doing, they immediately took me to the car and drove off without further words.

So here am I, in the car with both of my parents, in total silence, to the point I could even imagine crickets singing in the background.

Even through I don't know what's going on yet, I didn't dare break the silence, since they look like they were ready for war.

No... I'm not kidding. They do look like they were ready for war.
My mother who usually wears comfortable clothes is now wearing those dark green military uniform and pants with a lot of pockets and belt bag on her hips.

Then same with my Father over there, Kazuya Avalyn, someone I often and rarely sees in home is also wearing a military clothes similarity to my mother.

Unlike my young looking maiden mother, Satome Avalyn's golden blond hair and deep blue eyes. My good looking sharp father, Kazuya Avalyn has those natural black, slicked back spiky hair, much more paler skin than my mother, and his eyes were dark red eyes... kind of reminding of a vampire.

If they hadn't been my parent in this world, I would have asked for their paragraph like come on. They look like the human version of the famed theme of "The Beauty and The Beast"!

Mentally agreeing with myself, I continue to glance at my mother and then to my father, hoping any of them to tell me what's going on right now.
Which... My mother took that the start and told me with her favorite smile.

"Its okay Tsuki! We're just going to where your father usually work at, and while at it, you're going to do some training there for the time being."

"Ah? Training? What do you mean by that Kaasan?" I questioningly looked at her.

I may had been a normal person in my past life, but seriously, as far as I knew, I don't think children my age are supposed to do 'training' while they are still learning the basics of this society.

But then again, this is... a parallel world.

"Our family's tradition." My father deep calm voice answered me, turning my attention towards him.

Despite not looking towards me and have his focus on the road, he looks serious. More serious than the casual expression I seen on his face so far.

"Tradition?" It was kind of the first time they told me something about this.

"A test whether you are worthy." My mother whom have now face forward, answered me without looking back.

Okay... This is getting, weird?

'Test whether am I worthy of what?' Lightly scratching my cheek, I looked down towards my clothes. Now that I think of it, Why am I also wearing a military clothes?

And just like that, It felt like thunder bolts suddenly shoot me through.

Feeling a single sweat slide on my forehead to my chin, I couldn't help but let out a shudder for a moment.

No freaking way. Are they bringing me in some kind of military academy or something!?

Shouldn't this modern world be like... You know, peaceful? Alice of life, or something bright and shiny life style? So where the heck did this military tag came out form!?

While I was mentally gaping at the incoming scenario I had in my mind, I stared at them dully. Before I finally had the will to asked them again.

"What is... This tradition?"

"It is not your time yet, my child." My father sternly told me, despite knowing it had reasons to it, it somehow felt cold in my ears.

Damn it... looks like I really have to deal this head on.

So then once again, we drove in silence at the rest of our destination.
It felt almost suffocating and cold despite the summer day.
Even so... that wouldn't stop me from sleeping at the back.


.

"Child... Tsuki... Can you hear? You need to wake up now."

Someone was shaking me on my shoulder. Awakening me from my quick nap.
Opening my eyes, the first thing I saw was my mother's expression of sympathy, looking at me with those encouraging smile.

"Nyeh? Are we there yet ma?" I yawn, blinking my so called innocent eyes. Slightly hoping they would changed their mind at this... training.

"Yes sweetie, we are here." Whatever thoughts my mother had, she seems to have harden her heart as she lead me out of the car. And what I saw made me gaped and eyes widen wide.
And so... my once long dream and now like nightmare has finally come true.

"Welcome to the Little Cadet Training Camp." My oh dear mother loudly introduced.

In front of us, is a large field and a few buildings around the side of the field.
Then at the field gathered are children around my age and some are one or two years older than me

Somehow, I wanted to cry. Yet no tears came out as my expression become stilled blank like a stone wall.

While my mind was practically arming itself to what strength is left, my mother suddenly kneel in one knee in front of me with both of her hands gasping both of my shoulder. Looking at me dead in the eyes, she told me softly.

"Tsuki, my child. I know this will be a bit confusing as this is your first time being here but you will be staying here for the time being. To learn some of what they will teach you here and have you train your physical body. I know your smart enough to understand this sweetie."

Yeah, yeah... I got it, Military training.

Hugging me close before I could even reply, my mother suddenly whispered in my ear.

"So please give it your all as it will be really useful to you in the future and also... if you manage to get in top 10, I will buy you the latest updated Xbox you been eyeing for a while and we will also increased your allowance by 5x in the future if you do so."

Ara! The dead like spirit had suddenly risen from its slumber! Your long once fighting spirit to trample your enemies has been activated!
Is what my mind practically screamed, as my eyes shone with light.

Oooh! Training? Study? Bah! Who said about them being a nightmare? Give them all to me!
Hmm? Wait, she knows I'm been sneaking into the computer!?

Right... Who cares if she knows that, my family had always been weird but they are fantastic and the best!

A smirk suddenly appeared in my face, with my eyes shining with sudden ambitious to win shone clearly. I then boldly declared to my mother. Finally throwing away the act of a young scared girl that stand in this unknown ground.

Beside, even if I act all bratty here, they probably drive off leaving me here to deal with it. So, why don't we make an impressive expression to my mother and father? After all, this was supposed to be a test for me whether I was worthy of whatever this is for.

"Don't you worry Kaasan! I will do my very best! No, I will definitely become one of the top 10 or even in one of the top 5! Believe it!" I grinned, bursting with confidence.

And... while I at it, I'm going to pretend I didn't saw my mother making a face that look like a villainess that has their plan going well.


.

When Kazuya came back after talking to the soon to be instructor of the children gathered at the field. He saw his beautiful lovely wife and cute daughter smiling bright as the sun, as they looked at him innocently.

'Did I missed something?' he awkwardly thought question in his mind as he called them to come now.

.

"So tousan, Any chance you tell me what's this Tradition about?" I asked my Father as he give me the bag my mother brought here. Still curious what this tradition about.
I know Japanese has a lot of traditions and stuff but, this is kind of different.

"Sorry, Tsuki, not until you pass this test, we cannot tell you anything about it." He look at me, softening his gaze as he pat me in the head. And before I knew it, he suddenly messed up my hair, making me pout as I tried to fix it back.

"Sure, sure..." I glance at him at the corner of my before sighing as I put on the bag on my back and before I could say farewell to my father, I suddenly remembered about Mikan who would not be seeing me for a while now.

"Tousan, can you please tell kaasan to tell Mikan about my situation here? She might get sad and misunderstood if I suddenly disappeared there."

"You mean Tsumiki Mikan? Oh, don't worry about that, she already told her that." My father took a quick glance towards Mother who is waiting near his car.

"She did? When?" I looked at him truly surprised as I couldn't recall my mother and Mikan talking to each other but then again, they might have passed by each other or something.

He gave me a strange look, making me remember that he is not always at home.

"Right..." I mutter, almost pouting, "Anyway, see you pa.."

"See you again and Good luck, Tsuki." He nod at me, before turning around and walked towards his to my mother.

Turning my head away from his disappearing back, I turned my head towards the other children that are scattered around this large field.

I have always like and dislike young children because of their innocent, bratty, loud, curiosity, and childish tactics.

Just when I imagine working with other children right now, I thought they may be nervous or something related to it.

However, instead of the immature children that are gathered in this very field, what I saw from them kind of amazed me.

'Hmm... Never thought I would see the day I would meet this kind of children... They usually would only appear in fictions and movies but... Dang, they already amazed from this distance.' I look at around. Checking out each children that stood here in this field.

Almost everyone has those mature like vibe around them.
Either serious, aloof, distant, cold, determined, casually or just has those happy go lucky vibe.

They may be young but I could already guessed they are... quite intelligent enough... Something that doesn't fit with their age.

Lowering my head in thought, I recalled back the memories when I managed to draw something really good and also managed to solved a hard mystery game my father left behind in the coach... Which is something beyond what a young child like my age could solve.
Instead of getting excited over the fact I may be a genius, they acted as if it was the most natural thing in the house. Never once they boosted me nor tell anyone about what I had done.

With the way they acted, it was as if they are telling me I could act all clever and smart around them but the choice whether I wanted it to show to others is my choice.

Which is why, This family is strange and weird but cool and the best family I could ever have.

As for this so called test, and looking at those children who may be young but seems mature enough to hold conversation with older people...

Whatever this is all about, the top 10 position seems to be harder than I thought.
