Chapter 17: The Trial, Part 1

"A class trial, you say? Very interesting. I actually know one person at this school that's much better at this kind of thing than I am." Kirigiri said after Enoshima's declaration. "We should probably get Saionji too, considering she was also involved." said Nanami. As they left to get the two, and Tsumiki set up the class trial some more, I was essentially forced to listen to the now even more insane Nagito Komaeda. He grabbed my shoulder and began to spew his bullshit. "Ah, yes. The mad trap, Chihiro Fujisaki. You attempting to mutilate my genitalia only brought me more hope than ever!" he said. I asked him to elaborate. "You see, genital mutilation really is the lowest hole down in the deep sea of despair, and I knew that the only way to go now was up. So you completely brought me back to the way of hope and most likely gave me a much faster recovery time." God dammit, I may have helped the bitch recover faster.

I really didn't want to speak to him anymore, so I took my attention to something equally as undesirable. The Imposter was still in the Komaeda wig, but now with his seemingly miracle recovery, he now had the decency to put on clothes, even if they were tight latex pants and a dirty blue t-shirt. He was currently looking through Enoshima's refrigerator, when he noticed me looking at him. "Hey, what do you think I should have, these two slices of frozen pizza or this thing of lasagna?" he asked. "Why are you asking me of all people this? Why is the first thing you're thinking about after snapping out of a sex craved despair is fucking food?" He sighed. "I may have not been able to fully comprehend what was going on due to Enoshima constantly fucking me, but let me tell you, the 'treats' she gave were nothing more than expired yogurt and grape juice. And she only gave me two or three of these a day! In fact, I even remember her saying that 'cummies' were a much more efficient snack than most foods." The last sentence made me chuckle a bit, but I still had questions. "How many times did she fuck you a day?" I asked. "Didn't keep count. Must have been eight or nine." He had beaten my record at the beach trip with one girl. I couldn't tell if this was a good thing or a bad thing. Both?

The door opened not long after, with the return of Kirigiri and Nanami, as well as the arrival of their guests. Nanami was grabbing Saionji by the neck, the smaller girl struggling to get out of her seemingly strong grip. Meanwhile, Kirigiri was casually talking to Makoto Naegi. Of all people Kirigiri could've been talking about, I wouldn't have expected Naegi. It suddenly dawned on me that he didn't know the secret, at least that I knew of. Everything had officially been set up and it was time to begin this possible hell. Enoshima explained what she wanted to see from this. Because lives weren't really on the line, she instead gave out some expectations of hers. She wasn't really taking part in the trial at all, she was only doing this to hear the entire story behind the torturing of the reserve course student, and to potentially cause despair. From the looks of things, despair had already been bestowed on one person taking part in this. "Why would any of you do this to Hajime? Just because he's reserve course doesn't mean he's your punching bag..." Nanami whimpered to start off the trial. Of course, the white haired fuck decided to respond first. "Of course you of all people are the one talking to subhuman. Do they infect you with as much despair as they seemingly do?" he asked. Why was he or the Imposter here? Neither were involved with this. Either way, this pissed her off greatly. We're off to a great start.

"Listen! We need to end this hostility and get to the bottom of this! Saionji, you said that you set this up. Why did this even happen in the first place?" Naegi yelled. She smirked and said "Wasn't my idea! Sure, I helped set things up but I didn't choose the student or the methods used! If you want to ask anyone, ask Tsumiki." As such, everyone turned to the nurse. "It was j-j-just for experimentation, I swear! Not for anything else! I often do these types of things to the reserve course because it could be dangerous, and we all know how much a reserve course student is worth!" she said. This pissed off Nanami more, but she didn't say anything yet. "I was going to help him heal his wounds after I was done, but once I got him out he ran right away." I wasn't going to bring up that she masturbated to his naked wounded body. Did she really do this just so she could do her talent? I guess if you have something you're good at, you have to do it even if it means causing harm to others.

"What are the chances we can get the student in question in here?" Naegi asked. "Last time I saw Hajime, he told me about his wounds and went to the school to ask for actual medical assistance. I haven't seen him since! It's been days!" Nanami yelled. Kirigiri sighed and said "They're doing this again. I'll go handle it." Immediately after, she left the room. I wasn't sure what she was referring to, but it couldn't have been too bad. "You know, while she's gone, I should bring this up. Why the hell are there two Komaedas?" Naegi asked. I agreed with him, two of him was three more than necessary. The real one laughed and explained the religious excursion. But even with the trial not really going on, things got intense. Part way through, he began to take shots at the Imposter. "You didn't fucking listen though, did you? I told you distinctly not to listen to Enoshima, and if you wanted to pay attention to anyone, for it to be Ikusaba! Yet you became more fucking intrenched than anyone I've ever seen! You are a worthless bitch!" he began to yell. Ikusaba nodded in agreement. This pissed the Imposter off greatly, so he began to yell at him. "Listen, you heartless bastard. I busted my ass trying to be you for several weeks and-"

"From what I understand, you mean 'busted your ass' as literally as possible!" Komaeda yelled at him. Just because I don't like him doesn't mean I won't acknowledge when he says funny shit like that. "Save this for later!" Naegi quickly yelled to shut them up. "Now, I would like to ask Fujisaki a question. How would you of all people know and even take part in something like this?" he asked. About time I got involved, and he did it with the perfect question. Since Naegi didn't know that what I did was an act, there was a considerably good chance I could just act like I didn't do anything and get away with it. "I-I wasn't involved! Just because I witnessed it doesn't mean I did anything! I'm innocent, I swear!" I yelled, several fake tears coming out in the process, and if no one decided to say anything, I could keep this up for the rest of the trial. All dreams of laying low were soon crushed. "You have a penis." was all Nanami said after that. "What are you saying?" I said, even still doing the girl act. There was a smirk growing on the face of Saionji. "Come the fuck on, we all know this by now! I know it more than anybody!" she said, laughing right after. Even with our improved relations, she was still acting like a little bitch. "Fine, fuck you! I'm a guy!" I yelled, this time in my normal voice. Naegi was shocked at this revelation literally everyone in the room knew but him. I didn't remember why I thought this was a good idea for quite a while.

Kirigiri and the reserve course student got back after that embarrassment. "Oh my god, I'm in a room full of ultimates! Hi, I'm Hajime Hinata, nice to meet all of you!" the student yelled with joy, afterwards extending his hand out for a handshake. "Shut the fuck up and get to the point!" Enoshima yelled. She hadn't said much up to this point, so I can only assume the trial was matching her expectations. Immediately, Naegi asked Hinata his perspective on things. "Well, I was just minding my own business when Mikan Tsumiki comes over to the reserve course section of the school! Whenever something like that happens, it's a big deal! She asked me specifically if I wanted to help her with her medical endeavors, and of course I had to say yes! But instead she got her other ultimate friends to completely destroy my body! How could you do something like this?" he responded, looking sternly at Tsumiki. She began to have a nervous breakdown. "I was going to help you recover afterwards! I'm so sorry! I'm really really sorry!" she began yelling.

"This is why you reserve course subhumans shouldn't exist! All you people do is cause despair for us people who really mean something." Komaeda yelled. Ironic coming from him, the guy who was chosen to go here out of luck. He then pointed to Nanami and shouted "The fact that you even hang out with these freaks is appalling!" Nanami had had enough with him, and was probably going to repeatedly insult him, but I decided to be the voice of reason. "Can't we all just get along? Just because he's not an ultimate doesn't mean he can't help our situation." I yelled, keeping up the girl act because the idea of someone from the reserve course knowing that I'm a guy is terrifying. The other people here should have realized that. They didn't. "Maybe the futa is right. That would cause more hope, after all." said Komaeda. At least they got the message right?

"Futa? Are you saying that..." Hinata began to say before getting interrupted. "Everything that is happening here never happened. You understand?" Ikusaba asked him. He nodded nervously. "You know what would be fuckin funny right now? If I told everyone that Fujisaki banged me. In fact, he banged every girl in the class not named Kirigiri. Wait a minute, I told everyone. Oops!" Enoshima said. That bitch. That fucking bitch. Everyone who didn't know already looked at me, some in intrigue, and others in disgust. Even though she already knew, Saionji was one of the disgusted ones. "I thought that was a joke! Why would you ever do this to me?" the dancer yelled at me. "They were horny! I wanted sex! I had to fucking do it!" I yelled back. This really was going nowhere fast. "This makes a lot more sense now. I knew Maizono wasn't a lesbian." Naegi said. I don't see why anyone could think she was. "You know what would be even funnier?" Enoshima asked us all. Oh no. "If I told everyone that Fujisaki impregnated Ikusaba! God damn it, I did it again!" she yelled, laughing afterwards. Next thing I know, everyone who didn't know was asking me questions. Komaeda decided to also bring up that he possibly impregnated her. I thought I might actually learn something from this, and instead I was just delving deeper into despair. Just as Enoshima had planned. That horrible, horrible bastard. "Everyone shut the fuck up!" Ikusaba yelled. Somehow, everyone actually did, thank god. She then decided to ask me a question. "Fujisaki, we all know about the image of you and Maizono kissing. Is there anything new about it that I should know?"

I wasn't prepared to answer this question, yet I did anyway. "Well, she... she kinda, well, cheated on me for Mondo Owada. Yeah." was what I said. Everyone yelled some combination of 'what', 'why' or 'when'. I didn't want to answer any of them, but I knew I was fucked if I did answer them. "Settle down, you bastards! This trial would be much more fun if we had everyone we needed here. Someone get Maizono and Owada and we'll continue this later. I think we all need a break." Enoshima said. A break would be perfect here. Kirigiri and Naegi went to get them, while I decided to completely ignore everyone as they continued to ask me questions. This was only going to get worse. How much worse is beyond me.
