Hope Peak Academy, an elite school where the best of the best goes, there's only one way to get inside this prestigious school: you must be invited. How you get invited to this school, you ask? Easy! Just have an incredible talent beyond anyone with a similar talent. Simple, right? You only need to be good at your talent. Those people who managed to be called are known as Ultimate.
To join this Academy would be a dream come true...But then, the 'Tragedy' occur, the world became consumed in despair, several Ultimate students have fallen for it, making the world worse than it was… And so, the remaining survivors have been sheltered inside Hope Peak Academy, thanks to the headmaster of the Academy. Intending to protect the last bit of hope for the world.
However, the headmaster made one small mistake: the cause of Despair was inside the Academy, and without a chance to know it, the headmaster was killed in the progress. Now, with the full control of the school, the mastermind of Despair will make the remaining survivors fall into the Depths of Despair.
However, the Headmaster wasn't the only one who made a mistake. True Despair made a fatal one as well.
Let's see how it goes…
It was 7:10 of the morning, and in front of us right now is Hope Peak Academy, a four tall building, and standing in front of the school gates was a very familiar person.
It was a young boy, he had spiky brown hair, green eyes. He wears a zipped-up dull green hoodie with a red stripe along the zipper, an open black jacket with gold buttons over the hoodie, black jeans, and red sneakers with white toes. A logo of a red gas mask in a circle printed on the back of his hoodie and wearing on his jacket lapel was a pin-shaped out-pointed star overlaid on a crescent moon. He looks very normal; an average joe. But, we all know that isn't right...
Makoto Naegi, Ultimate Luckster: He just got invited to the Academy thanks to his talent, although he wouldn't say his talent, rather he was lucky to win the lottery to enter it. He's nervous, of course, he is, he's standing right in front of the gate, with the appliance letter on his left hand that will make him an elite student. Him. An average guy inside a school of the best, he wonders if he will fit in, but when you get invited by the principal himself, can't let a horse gift on his mouth, right?
('This is it…! Once I pass through here, I'll be officially a student…') Makoto thought as he takes a deep breath. He was wondering if he did the right thing; accepting it. Compare to everyone else, his talent won't even look something amazing...
VROOOOMMMMMM!
His thoughts were broken by the sound of an engine getting closer to his position. The brunette turns to the direction, and his eyes widen at what, or rather, who was getting closer.
"Hey! Makoto!"
Coming at him was another boy, he had a spiky hair almost like Makoto, but is white and has a few spike hair aim back. His eyes were on two colors; his left eye is red while his right eye is blue. He was wearing a red coat that stops at his toes, inside it was a no-sleeve white shirt, long blue jeans, and black boots. On his face was a nasty scar of three claws on his left eye downward. He was waving his hand at the Luckster while driving a red-scarlet futuristic motorcycle.
"No way...Ragna?!" Makoto says, trembling in shock as his lips turn into a big smile.
Ragna Sparda: Makoto's childhood BBBFF (Big Brother, Best Friend Forever). Both of them have been friends since childhood, and if you ask Makoto if he ever was lucky, this guy is one of them. Ragna's parents die in a plane accident when he was six, and the Naegi family, who were friends of them, took him in as a second son. He had it rough but came out of it because he just can't stay like that forever; not when you have people around you and remember your loved ones when they are gone. His talent made him one crazy and dangerous guy. Ragna, Makoto, and his sister, Komaru Naegi, were in-separated. Hell! You can say that they were brothers and sisters. Plus, a well-known idol on the group in middle school does mean something, right? Then, after middle school, Ragna told them a piece of very surprising news; he was going to travel around the world. After a few convincing from his foster parents, and an unwilling 'letting go' sister and a worried brother, he managed to convince them to let him go, WITH, the promise that he would call at least twice a month, he promised of course and made his journey. Then, one day the family receive a package containing a tablet when they turn it on, they were overjoyed to see the white-haired in it with a smile…right on top of the Everest Mountain. The family went crazy, the older ones were shouting about how crazy he was, Komaru fainted on the floor and Naegi jaw was on the ground. After that heart attack, Ragna sent the tablet with a video camera chat to see the family so they could talk through it.
Now, that was ten years ago, back to the present.
The white-haired's motorcycle came to a screeching halt, stopping inches away from Makoto, whose clothes and hair were flown back by the force and dust. When it clear up, Makoto was face to face with his brother, who was smiling and was hanging the back wheel up in the air. "Hello, brother of mine! You're gonna stand there all day or what?" he says, the brunette lungs forward and hugs him, throwing the bike down.
"Ragna…I'm so happy to see you!" Makoto said, tears on his eyes, he was so happy about seeing him again!
"Hey! Don't you cry on me, you're stronger than this!" the white-haired shout as he grabs him and jumps off the motorcycle seat.
"R-right…sorry." Makoto said, wiping his watery eyes away before releasing him from the hug, "What are you doing here? Weren't you supposed to be in a flight to the Himalayas?"
"And not congratulate my brother for entering in Hope's Peak? Come on, as your official older brother, I HAD to be present! I mean, look at you!" Ragna responds, ruffling his younger brother's messy hair. "About to cry after seeing me? Can't show up with red eyes on your face on our first day here."
Makoto grumbles at him before pushing his hand off his head and hair, "Yeah, your right. The first impression is important-" the brunette started to say before he analyzed the words that went through his ears, he slowly looks with widened eyes at Ragan, who was smirking. "Wait...did you just say...OUR first day…?"
The white-haired boy simply proceeded to take out a letter from his coat pocket, it had the Academy's insignia, he sways the paper around as Makoto's hope rise up.
"Well, I'm more surprised that they managed to find me, yet know exactly where I was going to be, and when I went to tell mom and dad, surprised; my brother was chosen to attend as well via lottery! So, I thought, 'why not pass some time with Big Mac after so long?' And here I am." Ragna explains as Makoto smiles. How lucky is he! His brother is attending here! He won't feel like a weirdo now! What more could he ask for? "Anyway, let's get inside, you can tell me what's been going on my absent," Ragna says, wrapping his arm around the brunette's neck while using the other to hand on his bike. "By the way, Maizono is attending as well."
Makoto's eyes widened, "She is?!" they started to walk to the gates, "T-That's great! Is been so long since we saw her after middle school!" he said with excitement on seeing their old friend again.
However, that's when things went wrong.
As they made their first step through the gate, both boys grunt hard as something immediately hit them in their minds. Everything was getting round and twisted. Makoto immediately went limp, his eyes rolling up to his head. Ragna let goes of his bike, which crashes on the ground, and used his other arm to help his brother's body. He could feel his strength slipping away from him, and having the dead weight of the brunette wasn't helping.
('What the hell is going on?!) Ragna thought to himself as his legs gave in and fell to his knees, letting his brother's body slip down to the ground. He tries to stand up, but no available, it felt like his body was forcing itself to be in sleeping mode. Just then, something lands on his left cheek. He couldn't tell what it was, but whatever it is; is warm and soft.
('Is...that a hand?') With some strength left in him, he looks up to see something that surprised him. "Y-Y-You..!" that was the last thing he said before falling into darkness.
How long it has been? Naegi doesn't know, when he woke up, he saw that he was inside a classroom, but it was very strange, the windows were covered by metal plates. ('Where...Where am I?') The last thing he then remembers was that Ragna was with him…
Wait, Ragna!
He quickly looked around and found him sleeping face-first on a table, letting a sigh of relief out. "Ragna, wake up!" he said, shaking his shoulders to wake him up.
After a few seconds, the boy began to stir up from his sleep, "What?... Was having a good nap here, you know." Ragna said as he lets a soft yawn out, standing up from the chair and stretching his arms around. He suddenly blinks a bit as he noticed something weird. "...Wait, when did I fell asleep?" he looks at Makoto, who was as confused as him, and also noticed that he was in a classroom. "Where are we?"
"I don't know…But, I think we're inside the school…" the brunette responds, making the white-haired look around, seeing exactly what Naegi meant.
"...Why the iron plates?" he asks as he stands up and walks up to it. Naegi shrugs, not knowing as well. Ragna tried to move them, but they were stuck. "Oh, God. These things are glued."
"Hey look." the white-haired turns around to see the Luckster looking at a piece of paper. "This thing says that we have to assemble at 8:30, is 8:28 on the Gym." he said, showing a letter that says "Students, group up in the gym at 8:30."
"Well, I don't think we have much of a choice, let's go." Ragna points out as he made his way outside the room, followed by Makoto.
They both made their way through the corridors of the building, which was covered in red lights. They use their two minutes to find the frigging gym. They managed to found it, thanks to a map of the building. When they enter inside, they saw other people were already there. Fourteen people; six boys and eight girls. Everyone inside the gym turns to see the two brothers walk in.
"Great! These two make sixteen of us!" says a young man with a hair that defies gravity. His hair is dark brown extravagant hairstyle, spiky and large dreadlocks. He wears three layers of shirt, the top one is an old green uniform jacket, the second one a white ruffled shirt, and his third one a small yellow short yellow sleeve shirt. He's wearing a brown bellyband, and uses a yellow rope as a belt and has brown sandals.
Yasuhiro Hagakure, Ultimate Clayvoriant: A rising in the fortune-telling community, even though the accuracy of his prediction, which is only 30%, it was better than most other fortune-tellers.
He proceeded to place his hand on his hair, "Man, can't predict what's next. I wish the spirits could just tell me."
"Hmm, may now we can finally get some answers." says an overweight boy. He was the most rounded one of all the students there. He had black hair with a pointed ahoge. He's wearing glasses on his squinted eyes. He is dressed in a white shirt with an orange tie which has a blue arrow at the tip pointing upward. He wore an unbuttoned cardigan over his shorts with a black trouser and white trainers and was carrying an orange backpack on his backside.
Hifumi Yamada, Ultimate Fanfic Artist: He is a well-known doujin author in the Otaku world, he sold over 1,000 copies of one of his works during a convention.
Suddenly, someone stood in front of Ragna and Makoto, pointing accusingly with his index finger, "Aha! You two! Instructions said to assemble at 8:30!" he yells very loud. This one has black hair and very large eyebrows. His eyes are red, with an intense look that almost looks that he was mad (which he was). He wears a white uniform with five golden buttons on each sleeve and six on his chest, along with a red and gold medal on his chest. He has an armband on his left that has the words 'Public Moral'. He also wears knee-high black lace-up boots.
Kiyotaka Ishimaru, Ultimate Moral Compass: As his title implies, he's a man that follows the rules, a perfect honor student, making sure everyone else around him those the same. Every school he attended became a paradise of learning.
"You two better have a good excuse for being late!" he shouts, demanding an explanation. The two brothers sweatdropped his display. This guy was sounding very annoying by the minute.
"Tsk, uh, who gives a flip as to why they're late, we don't even know why are we here." says the voice of a young woman who looks bored. She has a tall, hourglass figure. Her eyes are blue, has freckles around her face and she had long thick strawberry blond hair tied in two pigtails. She is wearing a black cardigan over a white dress shirt unbuttoned enough to expose the top of her black bra on her tiny chest. A long tie loosely dangles around her neck. A red miniskirt and mid-sized black boots with platform heels and red laces. She wears a white bunny hair-clip and a large red and white bow as hair accessories.
Junko Enoshima, Ultimate Fashionista: A legend in the modeling career, which was well known in the modeling industry and was in every fashion magazine, especially the covers, and has walked down every fashion runway in the world.
Suddenly, a sweet voice spoke up, "Um….excuse me?" both brothers turn to see a small girl raising her hand. She was small and feminine looking and had also very doll-like clothes. She has short light brown layered hair and greenish-brown eyes. Her uniform consists of a dark green jacket with a white dress shirt underneath, a brown skirt with matching suspenders, black socks, and white shoes.
Chihiro Fujisaki, Ultimate Programmer: Her talent with the computer is without equal. Many of the programs she had created are been used by many corporations, from the police to military and business companies. All from one cute little girl, you wouldn't even believe it.
"Did you both woke up in a classroom?" Fujisaki asks the white-haired and the brunette.
"As a matter of fact. We did, no idea how we got there though," Ragna answers her question before looking at the rest, "Did you all…?
"Something like that." Fujisaki responds with a sigh, "Some of us woke up in different parts of this place."
"Been unconscious, only to be found somewhere else. So strange, yet peculiar the current case is." says a voice of a pale skin girl had a slim figure. Her hair is black, tied in a twin-drill pigtail style. Her eyes are red, moving around as she looks at the faces of the students. She wears a 'Gothic Lolita' outfit; a white blouse with a 'Peter-pan' collar, a black jacket with a simple white ribbon lacing down the sleeves fastened across her chest, a red tie with a butterfly pattern on it, a white laced skirt, knee-high black stockings, red 'Mary Jane' shoes, a white lace head-piece, and a sliver, almost weapon-like ring.
Celestia Lundenberg, Ultimate Gambler: She is well known in the underground gambling circles for being able to successfully take fortunes of many big-time players with her skills, earning the title 'Queen of Liars' because she always rob's the game to anyone.
"Tch! Peculiar my ass." says a rough voice that belongs to the biggest guy there. He had a light, pale brown pompadour hair-style with the back of it being straighter with a darker brown color, and his eyes had purple irises. He's wearing a long black coat with a white shirt underneath, and loose black pants with a bulky silver belt in the center, shaped like the face of a lion-dog.
Mondo Owada, Ultimate Biker Gang Leader: He's the leader of the largest bike gang in all Japan; 'The Diamond Dogs'. Despite his delinquent status, he's a man of honor and strives to carry the legacy of his late brother, the gang's previous leader.
"This place reminds me of the dicks we have in juvie," Owada says.
"Yeah, except this time, it feels like we were kidnapped." says the voice of a guy that has a punk's appearance. He has spiky red hair, piercing accessories on his lip, tongue, and ears, and a goatee. His eyes were pale blue and have a white popped collar jacket and shirt with a red skull design, black jeans, and other heavy accessories, such as chains and belts. And wears black pants and white shoes with platform soles.
Leon Kuwata, the Ultimate Baseball Player: Sure, his clothes don't look all athletic but don't be fooled. He is the best baseball player out there, even better than most major league players…even better than Babe Ruth?!
The guy puts his hand on his hair to scratch it, "Hey! Maybe they're going to wash off our organs."
"Think positive, it may be a motivation program!" says a hyperactive girl. Her skin was tanned, looked to be due to sun exposure. She has brown hair that is tied up in a ponytail that rose above her head. Her eyes were deep blue and wear athletic shorts and a red tracksuit jacket over her white shirt over her curvaceous body.
Aoi Asahina, Ultimate Swimmer: A swimming star. She has won multiple swimming competitions even from a young age and was even selected to represent Japan in the next Olympics.
She puts her finger on her chin in a thinking pose, "This is a Special School, right?" she asks, turning to the person next to her.
Standing next to her is a very tall muscular human body having its arm cross, wearing a sailor uniform that has ripped sleeves and a blue skirt barely covering the buffed thighs. She was as tall as the Ultimate Biker Gang Leader. There were training bandages wrapped around the lower leg, going down to the shoes. The hair was long and white with blue eyes, tanned red skin, indicated the natives it comes from, and there was a scar across the face diagonally.
Sakura Ogami, Ultimate Martial Artist: And before you ask, yes. At first glance, you can mistake her as a boy, but she is, in fact, a girl. She inherited the title of 'World's Strongest Fighter' and has taken great stride to deserve it; been undefeated in 400 straight battles.
"Is difficult to say," she answers the Ultimate Swimmer with a rough deep feminine voice. "We must first assess our situation here."
"Eeeeeek!" a squeak caught the attention of both brothers, they turn around to see a young woman fidgeting her fingers together while a blond boy looks at her suspiciously. "I-I-I-Is s-s-some-t-thing t-the-ma-ma-matter?" the girl asks, a hint of pink spreading on her cheeks.
"Hmph! Just that a smell caught my attention, is disgusting, bath yourself at once." answers the boy in an annoying tone. The two brothers sweatdrop at the scene as well.
The girl wears a dark girl sailor uniform with a longer skirt than any of the other uniforms. Her hair was aubergine and was tied in twin braids. Her smoky grey eyes behind some round glasses. She looks very timid by the looks of it.
The boy, on the other hand, has blond hair, wears a black business suit with a white shirt and green crisscross tie. His eyes were clear blue and behind white-framed glasses.
Toko Fukawa, Ultimate Writing Prodigy: Fukawa is a famous romance novelist, by accident. She was trying to write a love letter to a boy she liked in elementary school. Her teacher found it, and love it so much she hung it on the bulletin board for everybody to see it. At first, she was embarrassed, but then, she saw her talent for romance stories. One of her stories, 'Before the Sea's Scent Fades Away", was so popular with teenage girls for months after it was first published.
Byakuya Togami, Ultimate Affluent Progeny: The Togami family runs a company that is very successful in Japan, and the heir himself has put his family's business contacts to the good fortune of his own. They are the closest to World Dominators in the Business department.
Without neither of them noticing, Makoto and Ragna started to move on their own, separate from each other. Ragna look around the group and saw someone that didn't notice before. It's a girl, and she looks to be thinking (Definitely). She is very pretty, with purple eyes and pale complexion, her waist-length lavender hair tied on one side of it with a black ribbon. She wears a dark collared jacket over a white blouse and brown tie. She also had a short skirt and heeled knee-high boots. She was also wearing gloves on her hands, which seemed to be custom made of breathable materials.
Kyoko Kirigiri, Ultimate ?: Yes, for the sake of the story, we are going this way.
Ragna looks at her in curiosity, he doesn't know why…but he can swear that he has seen this girl before.
The girl quickly notices that someone was looking at her, and saw the red-coated boy staring at her intensely. "Yes? Is there something wrong?"
"Ah! Sorry if I'm bothering you," Ragna apologized as he wasn't trying to be rude, "Is just…Have we met before?"
Kirigiri looks at the white-haired in confusion, nonetheless, she gave him an answer. "I… don't think so."
"Oh…That's okay…" he says as he quickly bows his head to her, "Sorry to bother you, miss." he says to her before walking away while muttering. "Ah shit, I separate from him again."
The girl looks at him from the back. That was a first, someone, in here though that they met before…maybe she isn't wrong about something going on in this place.
Meanwhile, Makoto realizes that he got separated from Ragna and started to look for him until he heard a voice called his name. "Makoto? Is that you?" the voice was sweet, like an angel appeared right behind him. Turning around to see a beautiful yet familiar face.
The brunette's eyes widened at her. "M-Maizono?"
Standing right in front of him is, and I quote, 'a girl doll'. She had long dark blue hair, been held in place by several hairclips Her eyes were bright blue. She is wearing a simple sailor schoolgirl uniform.
Sayaka Maizono, Ultimate Pop Sensation: She became a talented teen idol at a pre-teenage, she and her idol friends were all over the media as the biggest sensation, and the best part is, she's friends with Naegi and Ragna!
"It is you!" Maizono was overjoyed as she lungs and capture her friend in a hug, taking him by surprise, "What a relief! Someone I know is here!"
Makoto broke from his frozen moment, returning the hug to her, "Y-Yeah, it is nice to see again. With your career as an Idol and all."
Maizono chuckles as she moves out of the hug, "That's true, I barely had time to say goodbye to you two that day." she says with a sad smile. "Anyways, how you been these years? Heard a boy with a pointy ahoge was part of an almost kidnaped situation. I only know one boy with that description with trouble following him behind."
The brunette put his hands in his hair, chuckling awkwardly, "Y-You didn't need it to say it like that. It wasn't my fault that I accidentally bump the guy's disguised off-"
"Which made the criminal think you were some sort of spy and try to fight, only for you to trip randomly and cause the man to miss and hit his head hard on the lamp post," The blue-haired girl said, surprising Makoto by her detailed story. "Forgot I'm an Esper?'
Makoto immediately sweatdrops, "P-Please stop doing that on me." He won't admit he kind of forgot that she somehow has a good intuition, and he was her 'unfortunate' victim.
"Hehehehe! Sorry, is just that teasing you is fun!~" The brunette jaw immediately drops in shock.
"Uh…I don't always appreciate that my luck puts me in trouble," Makoto says, trying to compose himself but only cause the idol to chuckle even more as the luckster blush at her. He then notices something behind her and smiles, "Also, I believe there's someone else who brings and makes trouble than me."
"Really? Who?"
"Why don't you turn around and find out?~"
Maizono eyes windened in absolute surprise. That voice; which brings nothing but trouble. It belongs to her person who allowed her to earn this friendship. She quickly looks back, and she couldn't help but place his hands on her mouth in shock.
Right behind her was none other than Ragna Sparda, a victory grin on his face, "What? No love for me, Maizono?" Ragna joked out, and he was immediately been tackled into a hug. The blue-haired wrap her hands around his waist, her face buried in his chest. "Ha! Someone misses me a lot."
Maizono looks up at him with her beautiful smile "Of course, I miss you a lot, Ragna."
"What's this? You remember me?" he asks with a fake shock.
The Pop Sensation inflated her cheeks cutely. "That's mean of you…" those blue eyes were threatening to cry.
The white-haired rolls his eyes as he ruffles his hair, "Ha…Sorry about that." He says as he looks at his brother. ('Did she do the same thing with you?') he asks via eye contact, which Makoto nods at him. "But I missed you too, Maizono."
The idol giggles as she smiles before letting go and looks at her friends, "I'm so glad, I finally have two people that I do know."
Makoto chuckles, ('No…It should be me that should be glad, especially since you bother being my friend.') he thought.
"Of course I would, silly! We are best friends." the Idol says to the Luckster, who was taken back.
"D-Did I say that out loud?" Makoto asks.
"Nah, she's/I'm an esper." both Ragna and Maizono replied at the same time, their eyes widened before they look at each other. "Jinx!" They both said while pointing at each other. A minute went before the three of them burst into laughter.
"If the three of you peasants are done conversing with each other," the voice of the Affluent Progeny caught the attention of the three of them, "We can move to more important matters, namely our current location," he says looking around the gym. "We have been gathered here, but we still have no idea what for."
('No shit, Sherlock. I was too busy hearing the other students talking about why they're here. That they woke up in here. That they may have been kidnapped and some stranger panels appearing that says their names and talent in here, I never even bother to look around me.') Ragna thought sarcastically…
And getting the Flex Tape...AGAIN!
"Is that so, can they at least give back my cellphone? I'm, like, sooooo bored without it." Junko says, flipping her hands-on the air.
After what she said, everybody felt dread for a few moments before they started to search for their own mobile devices.
"AH! My phones' gone!"
No luck, as you can see.
"Were they confiscated when we pass out?" Ogami said, being one of the few who stood calm. "For what purpose?"
"D-Did we got kidnaped?" Fujisaki asked in a bit of fear.
"Nah, I think they will give it back after this is over." Hagakure says, taking out a crystal sphere, "In fact, is already been foretold."
"Dude, seriously? We don't have time for this." Leon says to the shaman with a deadpan expression.
"Hey, take this seriously! I'm 30% all-ways correct of the time!" the Clayvoriant says with pride.
"Y-Yeah right," Fukawa said with snark, "L-Like if that's i-i-impressive. Raised it to f-fifty and w-we probably will believe y-you." the shaman twitch in annoyance at that snarky replied
"That prediction better true, 'cause if it not, I'm putting my boot right where the light doesn't shine," Ragna warned to him. He was worried about the condition of his bike, he doesn't even remember where he left it.
Suddenly, the speakers went off, "Testing, testing, one, two … can everybody hear me well?" a high-pitched voice calls, "Hey there kids! Time to begin the ceremony!" It says out loud.
"See, we aren't kidnapped, it is just how they operate here!" Hagakure said as if he had figured everything out.
"Well…That may be half right…" Kyoko says in a low voice.
Just then, at the podium of the gym, something pops out. A robotic teddy bear split into two colors, the right side was white and the left side was black. His right side looks normal, but the left side was very sinister.
"...Uh, what's with the creepy-ass bear?" Leon asked with confusion.
"Greetings!" Suddenly, the bear jumps up and spoke up.
"Huh!?"
"I know what you all thinking, and no, I'm not a high-tech bear. I'm the principal of this institution: Monokuma!" the animatronic bear now known as Monokuma introduced itself. "Please to meet you."
"Ghyhaaah!" Hifumi yells in pure fear, "I had a nightmare like this one!"
"What an ugly bear!" Owada says with a disgusted expression.
"A bear is our principal...Now I have seen everything." Ragna said with widening eyes.
"Young Men's! Some respect, please! I'm Mo-no-Ku-ma!" Monokuma said with a bit of annoyance.
"No shit, I thought you were Winnie the Pooh for a moment. You need to get out of here before Disney strikes you with copyrights." Ragna comments, making the Luckster and the Idol, who were close to him, to twitch in laughter.
"Yeah, yeah! I get it. I'm nothing that you see every day; I'm creepy, weird, ugly, et cetera. Now, attention!" Monokuma shouts and bows its head. "Good morning to you all!"
"Good morning to you too, sir!" Ishimaru says while bowing his head as well and be the only one to do it.
"W-Why are encouraging t-the thing?" Toko mumbles out to the perfect student.
"Eh, I guess that will do." the high tech bear says, "Anyway, welcome young students to your new school, now before you guys ask, all of you are here for your greater good." Everybody paid close attention, as they have no idea was is he talking about, "Don't let the outside world do anything to your brains."
('Brains? Why was he very specific on that?') the white-haired asks himself in confusion.
"So! You may be wondering how long you will be here for!" the animatronic says as he thinks, "Let's see…Ah!" he then points at the students.
"For the rest of your life!"
….
….
….
"HUH?!"
"And when I mean for the rest of your life's, I mean FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE'S" Monokuma yells out. Making sure everyone understood his words.
"Y-you are kidding right?" Leon asks, his face shows shock and fear.
"We will be staying here… Forever?" Fujisaki asked as her body shakes like a leaf and her eyes water a bit.
"I'mjustgoingtocutthoseanswerwithayes!" the robot replies, "But don't fret about it, we have a big budget to cover everything. From the beautiful electricity that shines your rooms to the delicious ingredient that comes to your plate!" Everybody started to counter, Maizono was asking how they will see their families, Junko was having none of it, Celestia was having difficulty believing that this was ideal and Makoto asks if that's the reason as to why the window is shut-in, which the animatronic respond by saying that's right and they were soundproof, no one could hear them from outside.
"And now, for those who want to leave," This caught everyone's attention, "You all are lucky to know that there is a loophole!"
"Do tell," Togami asks, his glasses flashing in interest.
"Good old' fashioned Murder!"
…
…
…
"...What?" Nobody was prepared for that…
Monokuma proceeds to jumps into the air, doing several flips, and lands on the ground. "The student who kills a classmate and gets away with it will be permitted to leave the academy!" He then started to act…un-normal. "The blood of someone spilled on the floor, the despair of trying to get out, and the battle of the best to see who gets out! Is so excited, I'm honored to be a witness!" he says, blushing madly and sweating. (How do a robot sweats and blushes is beyond my knowledge.)
Ragna fist-palm, "I see, to escape from here, you want us to go 'Hunger Games' here so that we can satisfy your fetish of murdering as well." Everyone, including Makoto and Maizono, looks at the white-haired with a weird face. "What? That's what I understood."
"Exactly! Glad that someone understands my reasoning!" Now all attention is to the bear, with shocking eyes.
"...Is official, you are insane, Winnie the Pooh." Ragna comments, just as everybody started to throw how crazy this was getting.
"Suck it you babies, from here and out, this is your life!" Monokuma says while walking in the middle of the group. "Look on the bright side; you can get away with murder! No police to catch you in the act, and need to restrain yourself! So, I suggest you all start plotting!"
"That's it you asshole," Mondo had enough of the game words as he stood right in front of the 'principal's' ways, dropping down to its level. "Say one more thing about death and you'll be victim number one!"
"That's a threat? Are you planning to kill me with corn-hod on your head?" the bear asks, mocking the Ultimate Biker Gang Leader, who didn't take that question well.
He grabs the bear by the head standing up as the robot was now hanging in the air. "No! I'll break everything inside you until you become scraps of metal!"
"Ahh! Attacking the principal is against the rules!" Monokuma shouts as his red eye started to glow and a beeping sound went off.
"What?! Cat got your tongue or something?!" Mondo asks, to deep in anger to notice the beeping sound coming out of Monokuma.
Who did notice it, however, was Kyoko. Her eyes widened in surprise as she had heard that beeping sound. Before she could even tell him to throw it away, the boy who talked to her, Ragna if she had heard Sayaka Maizono right, had dashed to where the Pompadour boy was, took the bear off his hand and with a battle roar, send it to the air...
*BOOM*
Where Monokuma's body exploded into pieces. The smell of gunpowder hit everyone's nostrils and the realization of how one of them was about to paint the walls and their clothes in red.
"N-No way…" Makoto sputters in disbelief.
"It could have blown my face off!" Mondo stood stupefied.
"Is…he dead?" Fujisaki asks as they all stare at the remaining pieces of the bear in fear and relief.
"What are you talking about?!"
With the relief turning into disbelief as everybody quickly turned to the stage to see another Monokuma popping out. "That was a warning for all of you! The next one who tries to be smart and breaks the rules will receive punishment!" it's declared he lets out his claws and his left red eye glow. "With this, we conclude the introduction ceremony, I wish you all a fun and unforgettable class year!" and with that said, he disappears from the stage.
"So let me get this straight: the only way to get out of here is by killing." Celestia resumes while twirling her hair.
"Grrrr, MURDER IS NOT WELCOME IN A SCHOOL ENVIRONMENT!" Ishimaru shouts, clearly not agreeing with this.
"T-this- i-is a jo-joke," Fujisaki says, not believing what she just heard and treating to cry.
"A joke can be, the murders may not be, that's what concerns me the most." Togami says before glaring at everyone, "Especially those who are planning it." It wasn't the time, but te Affluent Progeny was right. Those words were a reminder to all of them that right now, one of them could be planning a murder.
And this is how it began…sixteen students life inside Hope Peak Academy...the place where Despair will fall on the hope of the world...it was to suppose to happen.
Suddenly, Monokuma appears again, "Oh! I almost forgot, I have to roll-call!" he says while taking a board out of nowhere. "You guys better answer or there will be punishment for that person!" he says, making everyone uncomfortable. "Begging roll call!"
"Makoto Naegi!"
"Huh? Uh, here."
"Sayaka Maizono!"
"Um…Here."
"Byakuya Togami!"
"Hmph…Here."
"Kyoko Kirigiri!"
"...Here"
"Aoi Asahina!"
"Umm...Here!"
"Sakura Ogami!"
"Here…"
"Mondo Owada!"
"Tch!...Here."
"Kiyotaka Ishimaru!"
"Here, sir!"
"Hifumi Yamada!"
"Gha! Here!"
"Yasuhiro Hagakure!'
"H-HERE!"
"Junko Enoshima!'
"*sigh* Here."
"Toko Fukawa!"
"Eeek! H-H-Here!"
"Leon Kuwata!"
"Umm, here..."
"Chihiro Fujisaki!"
"Guh~...H-Here~."
"Celestia Ludenberg!"
"...Here."
"Ragna Sparda!"
"..."
"...Ragna Sparda!"
"..."
Makoto and Maizono turn to their side to see that the white-haired was no longer next to them.
"I said…RAGNA SPARDA!"
"...HERE!"
Everybody turned around to see where he was, but he wasn't at their eye view, however, Makoto knew where he was. He looks up and there was his brother. The idol notices Makoto looking up and did the same thing, only that she gasped. The rest of the group hear her gasp and look at her to see the two friends looking up, they follow their gaze upward and some of them have eyes widened while others look in interest.
Right on the ceiling, was none other than Ragna Sparda, hanging on the I-beam girder with his legs, looking upside down at the others. It would appear that he was bored out of his mind, so he did was he was good at...Killing his boredom.
"Ah! There he is! Well, everybody is here, now I take my leave…for real." Monokuma says as he was about to leave, "Oh, and can someone tell the red kid to not fall, I don't want him to ruin my fun too fast." he says before disappearing.
"You hear the principal, get down from there right now! " Ishimaru yells, pointing at the crazy kid.
The white-haired raised an eyebrow at what he said, "Now? As in, I should stop using my legs to hang in the only thing that's keeping me from falling to my death?" he asked for corroboration on that point. Makoto's eyes widened at what he was doing.
"Wait! Don't answer-"
"Yes! I mean...What?" Makoto was a little too late.
"Okay." Before the Ultimat Moral Compass could stop him, Ragna legs stop grabbing the girder and let himself be pulled down by gravity. People like Maizono, Fujisaki, and Asahina let out a gasp at what Ragna did. Say person angle himself while spinning and when his feet meet the ground, a small earthquake shook the entire gym, making some students almost lose their balance and others lose their balance. "There, I'm down." He says, smiling at the black-haired Ultimate, who was trembling before he managed to adjust himself.
"You idiot! Why did you jump off like that! You could have died!" he yells to the white-haired.
"Don't worried. This is normal for me." Ragan responds.
"Normal?!" this time was Mondo who talk in disbelief, "What kind of person calls that normal?!"
"The one who is the Ultimate Daredevil," Ragna replies.
Daredevil, someone who is one son of a gun. He has no problem with doing the impossible. Jumping on an active volcano, dive into the Pacific Ocean and catch a video of the Megalodon, climb the Mountain Everest with no help, enter Area 51 and coming out without being seeing, and enter the NASA, hijack a rocket and when he was in orbit, jumps out of it, went at full speed down with gravity, and lands on the Atlantic Ocean...with no parachute. That's who Ragna is….
And that's the mistake Despair made…let the 'Devil' be pair up with Hope…

The doors open, revealing a place where seventeen stands that made a circle, and a throne were Monokuma sits. Each student took his place on the stand from right to left: Makoto, Sayaka, Taka, Junko, Sakura, Kyoko, Mondo, Hina, Ragna, Hiro, Chihiro, Byakuya, Celestia, Leon, Toko, and Yamada. The words "Trial Starts" as everybody prepares for the battle that will determine who will live, and who will die.
