Looks like things are good despite getting a few reviews, and now here is the second chapter where things would pick up where the last chapter left off, in which the survivors are debating on what to do next, as some want to go to their homes to see if their loved ones are okay while others want to check other "things", but for Naegi, he wants to go camping in at his house and check to see if his family is still there but he won't be alone as some of his classmates go with him and they make their plan on where they should head off next knowing the situation within the city and how to transverse without getting caught as they anticipate that some "despaired citizens" would try to make them despair once sighted.
Ch. 2 – Bunretsu Appu
At the gates of Hope's Peak Academy, the 14 high school students with the "Super" titles stood there after finally leaving the "cage" that trapped them unwillingly, and some are feeling bad for leaving Mukuro Ikusaba behind, seeing that she may have a slim chance of holding down the "fort" given an army of Monokuma robots and a dozen traps, but for now the 14 students have no qualms as they finally got their wish and got out of the doomed academy and are now pondering on their next move.
The 14 students shown together are:
- Makoto Naegi
- Kyoko Kirigiri
- Byakuya Togami
- Toko Fukawa
- Aoi Asahina
- Yasuhiro Hagakure
- Sayaka Maizono
- Leon Kuwata
- Chihiro Fujisaki
- Mondo Ohwada
- Kiyotaka Ishimaru
- Hifumin Yamada
- Celestia Ludenberg
- Sakura Ohgami
The 14 teenagers were standing outside at the streets as they noticed that everything appeared to be peaceful and yet they are confused after what being told by Ikusaba about the outside world being in utter chaos and in a state of despair, but the pressing matter came when some of them want to head for their homes to check on their families if they are still there or not, be it alive or dead. This means some of them would have to part ways while others are unsure on where to go at this point.
"I...have to go to my home...need to know if my family survived or not..."
"Naegi-kun...I 'll go with you..."
"Oi...you can't go on your own with a wound like that...I'll give you a ride..."
"I'm coming too...my baseball skills might come in handy..."
"I will go to my dojo and check on my family..."
"I'm coming too, Sakura-chan!"
"I'm going to my place and get a replacement crystal ball..."
"I'm going to my home..."
"Take me with you...I got no place to go..."
"Fujisaki...can you come with me? Your programming skills might come in handy..."
"O-okay, Kirigiri-san..."
"Fine...all of you...here's my address to my villa...we can meet up if you decided to go with me..."
"Really?"
"Thanks!"
Kirigiri glanced at her hand and it showed to be her cellphone that Ikusaba took after the 14 students were sedated and underwent memory alterations, and there Kirigiri glanced at the phonebook where her contacts' numbers are still intact, and there she began to dial a number to call someone, and to her relief, someone spoke, and it turns out to be someone Kirigiri knew and the two spoke to each other as if they haven't spoken to one another for a long time.
"Hello, Yui?"
"Kyoko! Is that you?"
"Yes, it's me..."
"It's been two years! Where were you? I couldn't get a hold of you since..."
"A lot of things have happened...Can I go to where you are based right now?"
"Okay...here's the address...I sort of moved out after...THAT..."
"So the streets are...?"
"Yeah...chaos and despair..."
The person that Kirigiri is talking to is Yui Samidare, whom she met a few years before before being scouted at Hope's peak Academy, and there Kirigiri and Yui talked and soon both came to an agreement before cutting the line, and she turns her attention towards her classmates and told them that she is seeing a friend, and informed them that the streets were indeed what Ikusaba described - chaos and despair, and told the rest that it would be dangerous if they walked the streets and expose themselves.
However, the others appeared to have plans of their own and Kirigiri is told what plans the other have in mind, in which she finds out that they intend to split up and have to put their affairs in order before telling Kirigiri that after putting their affairs in order, they will meet with her again, and then it showed the following students splitting up. They are:
- Naegi x Maizono x Kuwata x Ohwada
Naegi wanted to head for home to check if his family is still there and alive, though his body wouldn't allow him to do so given the wounds are still fresh and not fully healed. Mizono chose to go with Naegi to support him as well as her way of making up for her attempt to frame him. Ohwada decided to use his motorcycle and give the two a ride since he felt that he couldn't leave them alone and Kuwata chose to go with them as he has no place to go.
- Ohgami x Asahina
Ohgami chose to head for her dojo to check on her family and Asahina will go with her since they are good friends and Ohgami's skills would protect her while in return the "Martial Artist" will accompany the "Swimmer" to check if her family managed to evacuate before the "incident" took place.
- Celestia x Hagakure x Yamada
Hagakure and Yamada have nowhere else to go, but Celes offered the two a place she can find, and the two boys agreed to, with Yamada having a crush on her and he readily accepted while Hagakure managed to get a spare crystal ball so he can read some fortune when there is time.
- Togami x Fukawa x Ishimaru
Togami at first cared less about where the others go, but soon softened up as Kirigiri asks him to take Fukawa and Ishimaru with them and said that with the radios that Ikusaba provided before leaving the academy, they need to stay in touch knowing that Enoshima might do something that would cause problems, and Togami reluctantly accepted. After that, Kirigiri handed the radios to the rest and instructed them to keep their radios open so that they have communications and that there will be someone who can give them advise and the need to meet with the others.
With that, the students went their separate ways, as Chihiro Fujisaki is left with Kirigiri and the "Detective" told the "Programmer" that they are paired together and will head to a certain place where she will meet with a friend.
"So...we're not going to your house?"
"No."
"What about your..."
"My dad's killed...remember what Ikusaba told us earlier..."
"Oh, yeah..."
"And a friend of mine will help us sort things out..."
"I see..."
"Let's go."
After that, Kirigiri and Fujisaki leaves and heads towards an undisclosed location, not looking back at the academy where the building appeared to be fine but inside it was a nightmare, though it is not known whether Ikusaba managed to stay alive or ended up getting captured and/or killed. given that Enoshima is still at the master control room.
To Be Continued...
Hope you liked the first chapter of this fic, and this is just the start, and though you may find it rather odd that this sounds similar to the likes of American suspense films such as "The Purge", or the Playstation 2 game "State Of Emergency", but this is what it's all about, as Naegi and the rest must use their wits to survive and stay hidden especially after realizing that they are seen through the social media due to Enoshima's machinations, and how the survivors came to be rescued by Future Foundation.
More on how Naegi and the gang's challenges and survival on the "outside world" will be detailed in the upcoming chapters.
Preview:
Naegi and the rest managed to find shelter, but they also deal on how to survive the next upcoming days and how to get rations without the risk of get seen…or caught.
