BGM: Beautiful Morning
"U...Ugh...! What was that?" I was startled by what was a foul taste in my tongue. It didn't felt right to have it, and quickly, I tried to spit it out, only to be greeted by nothing more than my silver white saliva.
That was gross.
Either way, wasn't the third day we got stuck in this Hotel? I mean, not counting the time when the headmaster gave us the invitation and quickly tried to snuff us out. Or at least, that's what I think it was. At the end, me, Chikako, and the other unconcious person who didn't gave out his name earlier found these nifty rooms with a bigger space than what our house was. To be fair though, metal surrounded the place, so whatever made this place looked modern and fancy made it look like more of a prison with no bars. Just a big space filled with nothing but floors.
It'd be unfair if I didn't introduce myself, so as of now, I guess "Teddy" would work. I'm still kind of iffy with sharing my full name, but if it helps, Yumma too would be good. I have the talent known as the SDHSL Sleeper, though in reality, i'm more of a dreamer. I share the name Teddy with my own white teddy bear.
I have a sense as to how a person is based by how each person dreams. I got this from my mom who was a diviner of sorts, and a psychic as well. It's kinda of cool to have I guess, but at most times, its scary to see who people really are if they were people who were constantly, well, threatening. The closest I got from this earlier ago was the headmaster, and though this sense does get quirky at times, I wished it really was at that time.
In reality, I believe in the better method of just asking a person with what they experienced. Basically, the old-fashioned way. Something that I got from dad, even though its still a mystery as to what his whereabouts are.
Enough of that actually, I think you should know more about the others actually and with what happened just days ago.
TIME: MORNING
BGM: Beautiful Day
The SDHSL Chesser (for some reason or another got that title, even though it should have been Chess Master) is a girl that was known throughout the world as a person who did what the title says. She basically would the equivalence of killing you in a round of Chess, where there was even numerous amounts of attempts to cheat from other competitors around the world. Like all rounds, all fell flat on their backs when they announced her name as the winner.
She's really nice actually, even though her tough complexion comes naturally when she invites you to a game of chess. When we first met (which was just me picking at her shoulder), I actually thought I met someone who would have been a SDHSL Impostor to replecate what she was, especially when she sounded so nervous to actually have a conversation to begin with. It turned out however that not even an impostor would have just quickly tell me of the bat that they were just leaving and wish me a good day. From there on out, I just quickly asked her to just stay there with me and just have a conversation if she had the time.
It'd be horrible of me to tell you everything what happened, but in some way, there was just a time where she just looked like she would faint. She probably was just embarrassed, because the moment the other guy came, she quickly had that stoic face she had when she was competing internationally. It looked like how she would have first saw me. She actually looked more of an observer when she was, and that quickly was into view when she had her arms folded to one another.
Whoever he was, well, seemed like he was in a hurry to get here. It was amazing actually. He ducked down from a table, jumped from the ledges from the metal supports of the stairs, and even made a jump that landed him on his feet while doing a back-flip from a brick wall. Wherever he was going, it would have been next to us. I was corrected sooner than a second when I was met by some blue eyes. Said blue eyes suddenly got terrified when he saw me standing next to him, and shifted his body to move back a little. At the end, he landed on his behind when it looked like he lost his balance. Pretty funny actually...I even thought Chikako grinned at such sight.
Sporting a black jacket that read the word "Soar" during his infamous back-flip, he had a long grey t-shirt that was filled nicely with his arms and shoulder, perhaps with what feats of athleticism he just performed. He also had some bells tied into his wrist that were colored with red and white stripes. With his beige bermudas, you could also see what you would speculate of his body with his exposed legs as well, which connected to a pair of blue sneakers that contained some red arrow that was emblazing a well-known company in the side of those specific sneakers. At the top of his grey spiky hair, was a hat that was stitched with words, "Catch me if you can!" in green thread. It suited him with his fair skin and slim build.
Turning his head back and forth from Chikako and me, he got up from his feet and blushed a bit.
"You know, that wasn't intentional...I thought i'd get here by myself like always. Cheeks puffed, he looked away from us.
Always...?
"Hmm...What exactly were you just doing, messing up with the property of the small cafe down there, and the library, huh? Didn't you think somebody could have just walked in and would tumble down because you'd be in their way?!" Chikako was really upset, pointing her finger at him and had her eyes looked at him threateningly.
"N-no! I didn't meant that. I was referring about how this place was empty! This is my third time being here and all. The actual entrance I meant." With his hands holding up in suspense, as if to signal Chikako to stay back, and his eyes returned of those with terror.
"And the rest. Did you thought about how many people you're risking of breaking a bone or two?" Chikako gave him a cold stare, before putting her arms back into a layer position again.
"No...?" He really didn't know what was coming, did he? She might turn up against him or something.
"Huff...Don't...Don't do that again. Okay?" Her eyes were looking at the ground, with hands at the sides of her body.
Well, maybe i'm wrong, for the second time.
"Wow lady! Thanks! I thought you'd turn out to be a scary monster for a secon-" Before he could have kept that grin, he was met with Chikako giving an earful to him.
"What was that?! Say that again, punk!" And to think she was an inner pacifist.
"Wahh! I-I'm sorry. I should be going! Bye!" That guy left instantly, with his feet touching the ground with similar speed like last time.
"There he goes again...doing exactly what I just pardoned him from. Seriously, I really thought I was the pacifist.
I tried to hold a laugh, since she just repeated what I said to her.
"That reminds me. Who are you? You certainly know a lot about me. Are you enrolled in this Academy as well?" She was smiling again. Preferably creepy like a monster. I guess she's trying to be as positive looking as possible, even if it was looking like it was impossible for her to do so after all of that.
I told her about everything you should know.
"A dreamer? They let slackers in here too?" She had a grin in her face, with her eyes closed with her hands holding each other.
"What about loudmouths?" That wasn't safe.
"Hm, hey-! You know a guy like that deserved it, okay? I guess I'm not the one who would wear the medal for the most kind to dum-dums." She laughed a bit, as if the guy was just a silly criminal that didn't deserve to talk after being shunned with evidence against him.
"I guess...But he seemed happy to be here, don't you think? He had a confident smile when he did all of that." I really preferred to be the "nice guy" in all of this, even if it was in my nature.
"It's not like I was going to be merciless to him. He just needed to be scolded for risking him and everybody else's health. It's reckless, you know?" She had her eyes opened, and her arms were straightened out.
"So you were worried about him as well?" It was pretty weird that she would, despite with what she just said.
"A-ah...W-well, yes. He too is human. I'd probably do the same with any athletic wannabe's who would put them in danger. Guess you're safe from that. But don't think you're safe if you yawn in front of me, okay? I'm not that social and all, but I do know how to give warnings and all." She had a cute wink when she said that, and had her index finger raised up when she did.
It was nice to have somebody else to talk to with how there was actually one more hour before the time in the invitation would be reached. Halfway all that counting though, a voice suddenly was made on top of us.
"Hello! Hey! Is this thing on! Oh well, I guess nobody's here..." Instantly, Chikako spoke, a little softly though.
"No wait. We're here." With the two hands holding each other, she looked nervous.
"Really?! But I thought only speedy gon- I guess you can come in! Welcome one and all, whoever you are!"
"It's only two of us. I was hugging Teddy with one arm, and with the other, I made a signal that meant two.
"Wow! Even better! The gates will open in about...now!"
BGM: Pause
With the voices words being true, the gates opened gently, squeaking a bit with the sound it was making.
With a step forward, I walked to go to the inside of the Academy, until I noticed Chikako stepping out slowly, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"What's wrong Chikako, don't you want to enter?" I was confused with why she would look like. It's not like there was anything bad was going to happen. We would walk in and see what was going to happen if we accept being students.
"W-well. Something tells me that this place has a really bad vibe." She still had that worried look, but kept it to a lower degree then what she had.
"I know the idea of a voice inviting us seems bad enough, but I highly doubt there's nothing more than just a prank." I checked with my sensory again, and even though it somewhat exhausted me, nothing in here reads bad news.
"Well, can I hold your hand?" I mean, only 'cause i'm scared and all..." She looked like she was blushing, but nothing more than what she said could have been the reason to it.
"Sure, I don't mind." What with what I preference and all...
"Oh! Okay then, thanks!" And with that, eyes that looked brighter, she got my hand and we walked inside to the school.
TIME: MORNING
BGM: Beautiful Day (Piano Arrangement)
The building didn't look like it was messed with or anything. Simple things, simple lightings, matching tiles, and huge space. Exactly like how it would look like. Even the ribbons, decorations, and garlands would bring the mood to everybody into those that were cheery, not even a complete shut-in could have looked at this and not get curious what the event was for.
Across what we could see, there was a small door that read prize room. We tried to open it, only to have the sounds of the door knob hesitating to open. Weird, but possibly, this could be some type of school shop? Whatever it was, it probably meant nothing. Going to the doors surrounding the place, it was easy to see that some of the other doors was going to be locked as well. Almost absent everwhere, it was possible to see that maybe entering this place really was just a badly organized prank. Who'd thought it be good to mess around with a school and all?
Possibly the last time I was incorrect, the same voice would be heard from a monitor that had a static screen. No sooner than that, Chikako went behind me, with the back of my shoulders being greeted with a push from two hands. She must be really terrified being here, as she was whimpering a bit when she did that.
BGM: Pause
The monitors static had some strange words, such as "Maiz...which is corn in spanish if I remember. Ar...A pirate sound...Ou...The letter u pronounced in some other language...ere...Which meant nothing to me at all. Possibly, the mastermind behind all of this was trying to do a ghost prank, before clearer words were being made. "-ello! We noticed that you're standing in front of a monitor. If you can, would you mind telling me which lighted room are you in?"
I really didn't understand what it meant.
"N-no..." Chikako, trembling just a bit, still seemed scared. Though I guess it was natural with how scared she looked like.
"W-what? I can't understand you. Can you repeat-" No sooner than that, small waves of color was starting to form, until it slowly showed a clear view of a man standing behind some monitors.
"Oh! I can see you guys now! Sorry if it looked like that. Seeing how this building is still buggy with its system and all. Either way, nice to finally seem some new faces here! If you like, you can go and meet me in the cafeteria! You'll just have to go to where a narrow hallway is. Don't worry, i'll meet you there as soon as I get down there!" With a small grin, the man in the white suit waved at us, before the video feed ended, and the monitor got powered off.
"Yumma...what do you think will happen if we go there?" With her hands hugging each other, she looked at me with a worried look.
BGM: Resumed Beautiful Days
"Hmm. I really don't know. Possibly not answers we would like however." With that, I changed where Teddy was, and made him sit on top of my shoulders. That is when I did the same pushing motion to Chikako did to me, a little more gentler though.
"H-hey! I, what did I do?!" With a small squeak, she was still being shoved by me and I laughed during that. She really needed to stop worrying about this.
"Don't worry about it. Call it petty revenge if you like." And with that, she made a small hiss, obviously angered about what I was doing.
"Ooh! I'm so going to get you for this. Just stop, okay?! Seriously, this is way too much for me, okay? I'm serious! Just, ugh! You're like him!" Stammering with small threats, she was still getting mad. Well, good for her. About two more playful shoves however, I was greeted with something else other than a push.
BGM: Pause
She turned her back, and then slapped me with her palm.
W-well. It did hurt. But I guess I was too speechless to say it did.
BGM: All All Aplogies
"S-seriously. If you thought that hurt, then you should know that I have a gash in my back! I got it when I had to leave my parents behind when they got mad-crazy for money! J-Just s-stop..." Small tears were being placed in her eyes, though they seemed like they wouldn't fall at any rate. She quickly wiped them off, before walking back to the door.
I really did it this time...I too did something instant, and that was to block her way.
"I-I'm sorry for that. I guess since you could be called a loudmouth, I thought you could be given some small shoves in the back. You should have told me that earlier ago. It's probably not good if you've let someone touching you there and not knowing it hurts." With arms outstretch, I made sure that she wouldn't pass me, before she just sighed and just looked down again.
"Nobody should just know things like that without the owner's consent." She looked at me with her arms pointing down.
"So are okay?" I just wanted this to be in the past. It be a shame to see myself as the only one investigating this place.
BGM: Resumed Beautiful Days
"Y-yeah. I kinda deserve it. A bit at least." With a tongue sticking out, she made the peace sign, before being embarrassed and went back to her neutral position.
"That's good. We can continue then." But as I turned back, I was again greeted by a similar pushing motion not too long ago.
"You could call this my petty revenge." She said it with a sly grin in her face.
Just like before, I just laughed.
TIME: MORNING
BGM: Ikoroshia (BOX 15)
When we entered the actual hallway, we instantly recognized how the ceiling kept either getting shorter, or bigger. Just why did the school did this, I dunno. A smaller gate could be seen where we entered this hallway, and pass that, there were more hallways with also white light illuminating. Seriously, this place looked so stale.
No matter what though, we checked to see if there was any place that had the cafeteria, even if it meant to go around the area where there was just locked rooms with nameplate that would have contained the name of some students, and a garbage room, which just like the rooms, would not open.
There was a laundry room that didn't open, and some stairs that seemed like they would have something, but with how high this place looks from the outside, there had to either be a good reason as to why the place where students eat would be at a place where they would have to walk that couldn't be any less but pitiful exercise, or that this floor is where the cafeteria should be.
That is when another hallway was present to us, which we swore wasn't even there in the first place.
Entering first, I could see how the place looked really clean for a specific reason, what with balloons and even a freakin' pinata was found in the place. Not only that, but the glass outside could show you that it was perfectly good weather outside. That and there were giggling's audible in this area.
BGM: Paused
"Is that...a girl's voice?" Without another second, something did appear. Just not girl.
BGM: Usamimimimi!
A white rabbit just jumped to you out of nowhere!
BGM: Resumed Beautiful Days
"Hi! I'm Usami, your new teacher for this school year! I'm excited to see that new students are being introduced to Hope's Peak and that some are even impatient to come at the arrived time!" With a laugh, we see nothing more than a mechanical robot that looked like a rabbit in a dress and a stick.
"T-That plushie just moved! This place is h-haunted! L-let's get out!" Another voice appeared, but unlike anyone that they heard about, seemed to belong to somebody else.
It was then the figure of a teen with a blue sweater appeared for a second, before vanishing.
BGM: Weekly Despair Magazine
"W-what was that! I-Is this funny to y'all?!" Chikako seemed livid from the thought that someone would continue this. Somehow, for some reason, something felt wrong just now. Whatever feeling I had, was soon replaced with one that was scared. It vanished soon enough.
"Bwua-huh?! W-was that from any of you? I didn't see any of your mouths opening. B-but in any case I-I'm not a plushie! I'm Usami." With a 'hand' in her mouth, she looked like she was sweating.
"Ohohohoho...You really like to push my buttons. If you have to know, my name is Monok-" An image appeared suddenly of a bear with its feet standing, with a design just like Usami's. She (I guess that's how you're suppose to refer as) herself looked shocked to see such a thing, and immediately tried to hit it with her heart staff.
Whatever it was, it dissapeared like the last image. And Usami only ended up whacking air, and rather violently actually.
"Stupid bear! How did he even got here in the first place! I didn't even detect him for one second before he got here and-huh? Wait, how did he left?! I-I saw him, I swear I did!" Lowering her hands, she looked to see us, only to see Chikako still with an angered expression and me with one that was puzzled.
"D-don't worry about that. It really must have been a glitch or something." Usami had a more cheerful display than before, as if whatever just happened didn't.
"You mean the black and white bear?" Chikako had both hands by the side of her body, with almost no hesitation to start giving earful.
"N-no way! Th-That can't be right! He wasn't in this wor- I mean, place before." With white eyes, she looked like if something took out the power that she was running from.
"Don't worry. It's just part of a plan. That was suppose to happen." That voice...!
BGM: Despair Syndrome
It was then that we all turned around to see a person with the same clothing as before, but what would have been a happier expression, this one. Just describing him...
His eyes seemed like there were too glad that something was right. With eyes that were basically void of any color except the fact that it was just actually white like his irises. He looked young, and what looked like he was wearing, it was a white suit and black pants. Just everything of him reminded me of the said bear that just passed here. Nothing, and I mean nothing would possibly resonate anything good from him.
"Y-you! What's the meaning of this! You very well know that the program was not to be executed without the permission of-" Usami was then kicked from said person and landed on a wall. She might not be flesh and bones, but that would have left a nasty bruise if she did.
"And who do we have here? Is this...oh so priceless. Maybe I should-

BGM:_DISTRUST
"Much better." With a small grin plastered on my face, it was time to see who was these two new participants would be.
Hmm, it be very inconvenient if I were to write every single thing I told them about during this part, so I guess there will only be bland description!
Well, there's the guy who's just a mere 5'6 foot, with the added feet of his actual legitimate plush around 6'2. Intimidating! Of course, his black hair would give him some more height if it counted, but oh well, who care's about the specifics, well, other than its girly. Plus his fairly normal skin and weird purple eyes are also things that would make him the type to be considered one thing. L-A-M-E! I mean he's already gay and all, but did he had to try to look the part as well? Geez! I guess its adorable to see him in blue pajamas though with their oh well, original tiny white rhombus shapes and buttons on just some parts of the shirt.
If that wasn't enough, his pants are also, just, blue. Blue slippers as well. Maybe he's a failed blue's men participent.
Aha! That necklace, is that a...an amethyst? Yeah, sounds about right. Why is it moon shaped though? Psychic much? Please, I am sooooooo over predictable crap like that!
Awww...The teddy though...it really did have a red heart that was stitched to his arms, like a custom taxidermy or something. It looks like the inside of his ears and nose was also just red. Wonder if I split it up? Would it also be red? Interesting color for blood.
Well, I guess he has manners enough rather than 'tsunde' here. Are you mad or just frustrated? Come on, nobody wants to see that complex!
Having hair that was radiating 'desperately not a bimbo here' her blonde and brown hair was kept in its low ponytail with those green-eyed monster eyes. Sheesh! What did your mom looked like? The Grudge? Since your dad was big-foot of course. Oh~ Just what a pretty ugly distracting purple glasses you have. And half frames too? Wonderful.
With long sleeves, of course, just had to be a light blue blouse, had been adorned with a bow. Black and white checkered miniskirt, she also had flats that matched her blouse. That and she also had flats in some other areas as well! Just like spiky ball, she had a silver white charm bracelet that had a tiny black and white chess pieces, and to add disgrace, she had small silver earrings as well.
Well, I 'hope' that made you to shut you up. Knowing you. You're probably having dirty thoughts about the climber. Of course, if you think i'm referring to you bozos who're just reading this, then no, I was referring to glasses here.
N-no! I'm not talking about Peko Pekoyama who's about to deliver a wicked ass strike to yum-yums. Or any of the other despairs who are with me here.
And no, i'm not talking about me who obviously is no longer who he is. I mean, it was obvious that I didn't have to tell you that, right?
Well, enough about that! I'm pretty bored with all of you, so let's see where we are...
Hmm...Here! This is where all of the secrets that everybody were told to the ones who were standing still! Well, maybe pass that. Certainly wouldn't want to ruin the moment.
Well then, I guess also this really good joke that Saionji made, but I guess we should see soon. Which by that, I mean no.
Huh? You want it back to a happier time? Only cause I seem like I can?
Well then, here's an elegant fuck no.
Also, why not. I'll just make the point-of-view back to third again. Don't worry though. It won't be long before its first again.
Well then, it's been a pleasure to know you! See you in a technical not-hell!
BGM: Welcome to Despair Academy
Gasping for breath, Yumma was holding his breath, before he was no longer sustainable anymore with what the seemed like a nurse in a medical mask. With a whimper, she just slowly injects him with something of a syringe.
To this day, I still don't remember other than the fact that we saw the headmaster did, other than seeing him and some people were doing. Not only that, when we woke back up, it looked like we found ourselves stuck in this place.
I wonder if only I agreed with Chikako, we would have left safe and sound. Then again, we would have left him alone if we did. Because whatever is happening now, seems like its not going to be something that will be pleasant. The doors surrounding this entire hotel seem pretty locked, and not only that, but it looks like there are more of us of here in this place. They looked like they got here earlier before, because we saw something they had that we have yet to receive. Sure, it seems like they were nameplates in all the doors, and that there were full names on those that seemed to have gotten here before, which meant that there were only about five who actually did. (I mean, we still don't know his name yet) But there were some with what looks like a pixel drawn version of how they look like. Who knows, we might even get our own. And finally, even we hear sounds sometimes during what we confirmed our clocks to be night, the doors wouldn't open in our rooms if we ever tried to call out if there are people there.
Since we don't think that there will be a change, for today, we decide that maybe its best to sneak outside when its night, and hopefully see what it is. Whatever made Chikako brave enough to tell the man to let them leave while trying to give him the old one-two, seemed to motivate her to be present as well. I don't think she'd get scared if they were abominations.
'Till it's 12:00 AM when the sounds are made, we will just have to think of a way to not get spotted by the things making the sounds that don't want us to see what they are doing.
Until then, we wait.
END Of Part 2
Ohmygosh! It turns out that there was a 503 and I couldn't publish no matter what!
Also, the way with how it looks, it seems writing will be more interesting, if not a bit tedious at times.
Either way, I hope you have a good night! (Or day, cause I live in 'merica with a time that is much more different then yours)
