Prologue: Welcome to Monokuma town

“Come on, wake up Mommy! You’ll be late for school!” That was the first thing I heard on the day I started at my new school. I wished I could sleep in, but I didn’t want to be late and make a bad impression.

“Ok, ok, I’m up!” I replied. I rolled out of bed, only to accidentally let my daughter, Dinky, see me without clothes on!

“Did the bed eat your clothes?” Dinky asked with a confused look.

“Oops!” I covered myself in the blankets. “Um, could you go get Mommy some clothes?” I was utterly embarrassed, but that’s just what happens when it’s a hot night and I can’t stop sweating!

Once my daughter brought my clothes, I put them on quickly. It was my first day of school, and I wanted to get things started! I headed downstairs, grabbed my backpack and some toast, and headed out. Just as I walked through the door though, I heard my daughter calling my name.

“Mom! Wait!” Dinky waved her hand at me.

I looked back in her direction. “What is it, honey?” I asked.

“You forgot your lucky pen,” she replied, holding up a pen that she’d bought for me. It had a clown face on top of it.

“Thanks, Dinky. I promise I’ll use this throughout my school life.” I smiled. “Now remember what I told you. Once your school day is over, Ms.Cake will be waiting for you, ok?”

“Yes Mommy,” she replied, nodding.

“Ok. I’ll pick you up later, promise that you’ll be good!” I said before waving goodbye to my daughter.

I should probably introduce myself. My name is Derpy. Yeah, I know how it sounds, but it holds a special place in my heart.

I’m 19 years old, my skin is grey and my eyes are amber. On that particular day I was wearing a blue shirt with a yellow tie, a green skirt with some bubbles on the left side, white socks and green sandals.

I was heading to my first day at Canterlot Academy. It was well known for providing the highest level of education, and only accepting students who have a lot of experience in certain fields, said to be ‘Super High School Level’ students. For example, there is a Super High School Level Weightlifter known for pushing his limits, which led him to victory in several strongman competitions. There’s also a Super High School Level Fashion Photographer, who’s done many shows showing off the latest fashions.

I thought I was never going to be in the same class as these students due to my disability: ever since I was young and had an accident, I haven’t been able to do much for myself: my eyes function separately from each other, so it’s hard for me to see properly.

Still, I always pushed through - and me getting into that school proves it. The moment I got that letter telling me they wanted me to be a part of their school, I was so excited! I just knew that my acceptance into this school assured a better future not just for me, but for my daughter as well. They even offered us an apartment just a block away.

As I walked through the sidewalks of town, I saw the school. It was just as big as I imagined - it’s one building that reaches up to the sky, hitting the clouds. I stood on the threshold excitedly, wanting to remember this moment - the moment I become a student at one of the most prestigious schools in the world - forever. I stepped into the grounds... and blacked out.

~~~~~~~~~~

It was complete darkness for a while, but I opened my eyes to a deserted classroom, having no memory of being moved there.

“Where am I?” I asked myself, taking a look around to see a generic-looking classroom, everything where it should be. But when I looked down to the desk I was sitting on, I saw that there was a piece of paper that said:

MEET AT THE AUDITORIUM AT EXACTLY 2:00 PM

I looked around and spotted a clock just behind me. It was 1:50.

Crap, I’m gonna be late! I thought frantically. I immediately hopped off the desk and left the classroom. I wandered around the halls for a bit trying to find the auditorium, but all I saw were doors to empty classrooms.The walls were plain except for many plaques which seemed to be awards the school has received.

Eventually, I stumbled upon double doors at the end of the hallway. Guessing this might be the auditorium, I stepped inside, and a group of people stood expectantly before me.

Guess I’m not the only one here, I thought to myself. Oh… are these the High Level school kids I’ve heard so much about?

“Looks like we got another one!”

“Do you think there are still more coming?”

“There’s only supposed to be twenty of us - can’t you count, stupid peasant? It’s even up on the banner.”

I looked to where the girl that just spoke is pointing - there was a banner above our heads. It reads:

WELCOME, 20 STUDENTS OF THE FUTURE

“Uh… hello?” I offered shyly. “I’m not the only one here, I see.”

“Shouldn’t we be concentrating on how we got here?”

The girl with the purple glasses has a point, I thought, but before I could say something, someone in the crowd made a suggestion.

“Before we talk about the situation, how about we concentrate on introducing ourselves? That way we can feel just a little more comfortable...”

“Great idea!” came a bubbly voice. “When I throw a PARTY I love to meet each and every lil’ person that shows up!”

“I wouldn’t call this a party, miss...” added a male voice.

“I’ll come round and meet you all, ‘k? You guys do the same!” I suggested. There were nods of agreement, so I went to talk to Purple Goggles.

“I am Photo Finish. You must have heard of me.”

Photo Finish: Super High School Level Fashion Photographer

Yep - I had heard of her. Who hasn’t? She was the most famous teenage photographer in the world: the girl everybody knows with the face nobody sees. She knows style when she sees it, that’s for sure! She even ran her own fashion show with a group of models and, with that and her photography, she was well on her way to the top. She was wearing an outfit she seemed to never take off: a zebra striped blouse with a black skirt that had a pair of white and purple stripes near the bottom and was emblazoned with diamond-shaped amethysts. Her hair was pure white, her skin was light blue and she wore - you guessed it - purple glasses.

“Wow, Photo Finish, never thought I’d meet you in person! My name is Derpy.” I greeted her normally, but she suddenly pointed a finger-gun at me, a hint of a smile on her face. “Is… something wrong?” I asked, confused.

“Did anybody ever tell you zat you could be a model?” she beamed delightedly. What?! Photo Finish, the biggest name in photography, thought little old me could model? “I’m being serious! You have ze body for it, ze face, ze charisma and ze smile!”

“My smile? Thanks!” It was the first time anybody had ever told me that. I grinned, already feeling that we could be friends.

“So what do you say?”

“I don’t know… I can tell you later, ok?” I was excited for the opportunity to be famous, but still didn’t think I was any good.

“Alright, but think about it. It will change your life.” She walked away, presumably to introduce herself to somebody else. I did the same - a young woman I recognised came half-stumbling towards me, so I steadied her and introduced myself.

“Hello! I’m Berry Punch!”

Berry Punch: Super High School Level ‘Juice’ Maker

Berry Punch, a girl with violet skin and hair, was wearing a magenta shirt with a strawberry and a bunch of grapes in the middle, a purple skirt, white and grassy green striped socks and big dark purple boots. Berry was known as a juicer, but I doubt that’s what she really makes considering the ‘condition’ she’s in pretty much all the time. She had a little kid, but I didn’t know if she had the capacity to take care of foals. Speaking of kids, I knew her when we were very young, but I doubted that she would remember me...

“Derpy? Is that you?” she asked excitedly. Evidently she did.

“Oh, I didn’t expect you to remember me. Hello again! It’s been forEVER!”

“Of course I remember you! How could I forget the first friend I ever made?” She seemed cross for implying that she may have forgotten me.

Under my breath, I muttered, “I could think of a few reasons…”

She didn’t seem to hear me. “I would never forget our happy times together as kids. It’s nice to see you again after all these years. I’m going to go meet more people now - catch up later!” And she was gone.

“Bye…” I said to the empty space before me. Suddenly, a blur of brown and white appeared before me, and I saw a very scary but cool looking girl.

“My name’s Gilda - don’t you forget it!”

Gilda: Super High School Level ‘Cool Kid’

Gilda had a rare, peachy-colour tone of skin and a short bob of brown hair. She wore a plain white shirt and some aqua jeans that matched her sleek running shoes - she wore eye shadow and seemed to have dip-dyed her fringed in purple. I had always thought it was a little strange to be a ‘High Level Cool Kid’, but she definitely seemed to live up to it - people said she was the very definition of cool. Gilda cast a cursory glance at me as I stood before her, afraid to speak. She glared. “What?”

“Oh, nothing, nothing! I’m Derpy, pleasure to meet you, haha…” I uttered quickly. I knew she would terrorize us all.

“Your name sounds dumb. Did your parents hate you or something?” That hurt, but I brushed it off, as always.

“Uh, sorry to bother you, I’ll be going away now, ready to meet you - I mean, lovely to meet you… Oh dear...”

“Yeah, yeah, you go away. Don’t come back.”

I almost ran away from the formidable figure, bumping straight into a man - the first one I’ve met to so far - who, let me just say, looked like he loved to work out. A lot. I squeaked nervously.

“Don’t be scared, I’m not gonna hurt ya! Sheesh, that Gilda seems like a mean kinda gal. I’m Snowflake, pleasure to meet ya.”

Snowflake: Super High School Level Strongman

Wow, Snowflake was strong! He looked like he took steroids - veins popping, biceps bulging - but he was completely genuine. He went shirtless most of the time, presumably to impress the girls, but below his six-pack, he wore perfectly normal red shorts patterned with a dumbbell. His skin was pure white and his blonde hair was cut in a mohican style, which, I’ll admit, is kinda cool. Snowflake had never yet lost a strength competition - that’s something to be proud of.

I squeaked again - he looked like he could throw me out of the window on his pinky finger - but he smiled gently.

“Nothing to be afraid here, friend! What’s your name?”

“Oh, I’m Derpy!” I reply, calming down now that I know he’s a good guy. “It’s just you startled me.”

“Bad first impression, huh? Happens all the time.” He winked and laughed. “Go ahead and meet some other people! YEAH!” The loud shout makes me jump, but when I regain my bearings I turn to see a pair of young boys. I talk to the shortest of the pair first.

“Hi! I’m Snips.”

Snips: Super High School Level Scissor Master

Snips was sort of teal-coloured, with bright orange hair that was relatively short. He wore jeans that were evidently too long for him, as he had to roll up the ends, green sneakers and a black shirt with a scissor emblem on the front, symbolising the thing he was most famous for: the ability to cut anything perfectly in half with his lucky pair of scissors. I’ve even heard rumors that he can do the same thing with his teeth.

“Have you heard of me?” he asked, striking a dramatic pose.

“Snips, the master cutter - yes, I have,” I replied, grinning at his delight, “name’s Derpy, by the way.”

“Anything you want me to cut? You know, to test my skills?” He's still beaming, so I dig into my pocket and find two pieces of rope (even I’m not sure how they got there). I gave him one. “No, give me both, please! I want to show you what I can do!” I handed over the other one too. With one hand he fished out a pair of scissors from his pockets, carefully placed one of the ropes between its blades and...

Snip! He tossed it back to me, severed into two equal parts. I hold them up next to each other. There was no doubt about it: they’re exactly even, almost eerily so! As I applaud he motions for me to look at him again, before he takes the other piece of twine into his teeth and bites down - his bite almost sounds like real scissors - and in an instant the rope is severed as perfectly as the one before. There was pain in his eyes though as he rubbed his teeth. “I’m fine, it just takes a while to recover from snipping anything so big. Snails, you take over.”

Snails: Super High School Level Insect Breeder

The guy was orange - like, really orange - and his hair was teal and stuck up a little. He wore a green hoodie and light-coloured jeans. I heard he kept some of his insects down his jacket to keep them warm - I didn’t believe it, but it sounded disgusting.

“.....” He turned his head.

Thinking he might just be shy, I said, “Name’s Derpy,” and held out a hand. He pushed it away.

“I wouldn’t touch me if I were you.”

“O… k then.” Seemed the stories about the bugs living in his clothes were true.

“Sorry if I’m being unfriendly. I’m not good at talking to girls.” He closed his eyes, looking sad.

“Hey, cheer up. I think you made a decent impression,” I said, trying to give him a boost of confidence. From the way he smiled, it seemed like it worked.

“Thanks. Maybe I do have a chance with her...”

“Her?” I asked (although I knew it wasn’t my business, these matters are impossible not to want to find out about).

“Ummm... never mind. I’ll go talk to Snips for a bit,” he quickly headed off.

I wondered who he was talking about? I saw a girl approaching me, and wondered if maybe there was some chance it was ‘her’.

“You should know who I am, but if you don’t, the name is Diamond Tiara.”

Diamond Tiara: Super High School Level Crown Maker

She had a yellow jacket with white spots on the left side, a light gray skirt with dark grey spots on the top left and bottom right, black shorts and a matching shirt, and yellow boots with white soles. She was wearing a lot of accessories like a tiara (her namesake, perhaps?), a silver bracelet on her left wrist, a necklace, earrings, and anklets. She had a light purplish skin tone with well groomed purple and white striped hair. From what I’d heard, she is the daughter of a successful business man named Filthy Rich.

“Well? You can’t talk or something?” She raised an eyebrow.

“Oh, sorry. My name is Derpy...” I trailed off, seeing her smug smirk.

“That sounds like the name nobody could love.” She grinned.

I should have known she’d have an attitude like that. She’s rich, so she was probably spoiled rotten.

“Seriously, why are we bothering introducing ourselves? It’s a waste of time, I say! You won’t even like any of these people. I certainly don’t.”

I’m not gonna lie, I thought she was a bitch. “Well, I could just move on and talk to someone else if you like.”

“Please do,” she says without hesitation.

I head to the next girl who looked to be wealthy as well.

“Hi. I’m Silver Spoon.”

Silver Spoon: Super High School Level Scion

She wore a purple shirt with white stripes at the end of the arms, a pink skirt with a white stripe over the bottom and purple boots with a white stripe on top with light blue bows. She also had a beaded necklace with matching bracelets. She had a grayish skin town and slightly darker hair and wore glasses. As her title implies, she was the next successor of her rich family, and from what I’ve heard she’d done a lot to deserve it. Just from her title alone, she has a done a lot for the family business, showing that she is worthy to be the next heir of the family. She was supposed to be friends with Diamond Tiara.

“Hello. My name’s Derpy.” I braced for more bratty language.

“Hello, Derpy. Its a pleasure to meet you,” she said in a calm voice. That surprised me - she didn’t sound like the last girl at all.

“Why so surprised?” She seemed confused.

“Oh, it’s nothing really. It’s just your friend...”

“Well, you should know that not every rich kid acts like Tiara. Well, I don’t want to keep you. I’d better let you go on to the next person. Goodbye!” She left, headed towards Diamond Tiara.

Wow. Maybe not all rich kids were spoiled (now I seem prejudiced, huh?). Still, I had to wonder why those two hung out together in the first place. I guess they just have chemistry with each other. I looked to my left, seeing an imperious woman and made for her.

“Greetings, future fan. You are meeting the Great and Powerful Trixie!”

Trixie: Super High School Level Magician

She wore a blue dress along with a dark blue vest and matching boots with purple anklets with stars on them and gemstones at the top. Strangest of all, she had a purple cape and a matching hat. She had a light blueish skin tone with hair that has white and light blue strips. From what I heard she was a magician but she’s supposed to have gotten really bad reviews. Every one of her shows supposedly bombed after an incident between her and some other girl, though lately things seemed to have picked up enough for her to keep her title.

“Aren’t you amazed?” She pointed her finger at me.

“Amazed about what?”

“That you get an up-close look at Trixie, the best, most GREAT and POWERFUL magician in the world!”

I forgot to mention that she liked to speak in the third person. I don’t know why. Perhaps it was to give herself airs and graces.

“So how about it, young Derpy! Would you like Trixie to perform a magic trick?” She puts one hand over the other and starts to do something, probably magic, I guess.

“Er… no thanks. Besides, we both have a lot of introductions to make.” I quickly made an excuse to get out of it.

“Trixie accepts this. She will show you later then.”

I headed to the next group, three young girls. I spoke to the little one first.

“Howdy there! My name is Apple Bloom.”

Apple Bloom: Super High School Level Carpenter

She wore tight jeans with a belt buckle, a light green shirt with a picture of a canvas and working tools on the left side, and yellow boots with pink bottoms. She had a light peachy yellowish skin tone, and long red hair with a pink bow on top. I heard that she was the founder and the first member of the Talent Mark Crusaders: three kids that tried to find their talents. Once they did, they decided to help others to do the same. Apple Bloom was good at building and fixing things and always got things done perfectly. She was a part of the tight knit Apple family.

“Hello, my name is Derpy. I never thought I see you here.”

“Really? Of course I’d be here! What makes you say that?” She put her arms up and formed fists.

“I just meant I never thought kids like you might be able to get into a high school,” I clarified.

She put her hands down, but still looked angry. “Have you not seen Diamond Tiara and Silver spoon!? Sheesh, what a way to introduce yourself...”

It seemed that may have I pissed her off a bit. “Sorry about that. I take back what I said. I know you’re good at what you do regardless of your age.”

“Oh, that’s alright. How about you meet my other friends?” she smiled kindly and gestured to the other two. It looked like I  was forgiven.

“Sure.” I looked to the next student, who happened to be in the same age as Apple Bloom.

“Hi there. My name is Sweetie Bell.”

Sweetie Bell: Super High School Level Singer

She wore a light magenta coat with a light pink and white striped shirt and a yellow skirt with a picture of a mic on the left side. She had magenta boots with yellow straps around them. Her skin tone is pure white and she has beautiful looking purple and light purple striped hair with curled tips and a red headband. She was the second member of the Talent Mark Crusaders. I heard that she had the voice of an angel, and her songs could be very soothing. She had a sister that owned a popular boutique.

“Hey... have you got the feeling you're being watched?” She looked up at me curiously.

“No,” I answered.

“Then its just me then.” She had a blank expression.

Curiosity got me, so I looked around before spotting Snails looking in our direction. He noticed me and turned away quickly. I figured Sweetie is the girl he had a crush on, but I decided not to out him to her.

“I wonder why we haven’t seen any teachers?” she asked curiously.

“I don’t know, but something tells me that nobody else is coming.”

“Ah well...” She put both hands behind her back and hummed a pretty tune.

I said goodbye to her and headed to the last of the group of the TMC

“Scootaloo here! No need for the applause!”

Scootaloo: Super High School Level Daredevil

She was wearing a black hoodie with light blue trim that had a picture of a wheel and lightning bolt on the left arm. She also had dark green shorts and grey boots that were light blue at the top. Her skin had a light orange tone and she had purple hair. I also noticed a bandage across her nose. She was the third and final member of the TMC. As her title suggests, she was a well known daredevil. People came from all around to her favorite skate park to see her perform stunts on the scooter that she never goes anywhere without. I even heard she was being trained by someone called the Queen of Performance so she could join the Wonder Colts.

“So are you here to comment on the shows I put on?” She crossed her arms proudly.

“Sorry but I haven’t actually seen you before, though I have heard that you’re quite talented.”

She let her hands fall to her sides casually. “Well I guess I should show you my skills right now!” She turned around and picked up her scooter. “Shall we?”

“HEY!” Trixie calls. “It’s been decided that we can’t do any performances or we we will be here all day!” I guessed she didn’t want anyone showing off if she couldn’t too.

“Fine.” Scootaloo put the scooter down.

“Don’t worry about it. Besides, there’s not much here you can skate on,” I pointed out.

“Well, once introductions are done and we get out of here, I’ll show you what I’m made of.” She posed dramatically.

“All right.” I waved goodbye and headed to the next student.

“Hello there dudette! My name is Vinyl Scratch.”

Vinyl Scratch: Super High School Level DJ

She had a tight white vest with blue stripes on the shoulder with a white skirt with a pair of eighth notes on it. She wore purple gloves that didn’t cover the fingers, big purple shades, purple pants with a light purple lightning bolt pattern, blue boots with a falling star design. She had a pure white skin tone with earphones and two-tone blue hair. She was a popular DJ that was in high demand wherever there was a party thanks to her unique sound and great personality.

“Well what do we have here? Gotta say you look interesting,” she pushes her glasses up.

“Yes. My name is Derpy.”

“Derpy. Really? That is a weird name, but cool nonetheless.” She laughs a little.

“I never thought my name would be cool.” I’ll admit I like the compliment.

“Well of course. In fact we should hang out more once we introduce ourselves to everybody else.”

“Sure, I’ll keep that in mind.” After that, I headed to the last person of that particular group.

“Hello... My name is Octavia...”

Octavia: Super High School Level Cellist

Based on her outfit, she was rather wealthy. It was a black vest with some golden buttons on the side of sleeve and a small treble clef button on the lapel, a grey skirt, black stockings and black shoes. She had a grey skin tone with long black hair and full eyelashes. When it came to classical music, she knew best. Whenever she appeared in a concert, she would have the audience utterly captivated by the sound of her cello.

“.....” She stayed silent.

“My name is Derpy.” I put my hand out but still got no response; she just looked away from me.

“Come on Octy, try talking to her a little!” Vinyl interjected, trying to get Octavia to express herself.

“Hey, don’t interrupt me!” Octavia said before turning back to me. “Um, so how is it going?”

“Oh, it’s fine.”

“Come on, Octy, be more expressive!” Vinyl urged.

“Please stop interrupting!” Octavia shouted back at Vinyl.

“I see you have you Cello there.” I thought I’d give her something something to talk about.

“Yes. It was given to me by someone. I don’t want to to talk about it.” She turned her head down to the side with a sad look.

“Ok. I think I’ll go see those last few people then.” I headed over the last group and started with the one on the far right.

“Hello. My name is Dr. Time Turner Whooves. It’s nice to meet you”

Dr. Whooves: Super High School Level Time Manager

He wore a blue business suit with an hourglass button, red sneakers, a brown tie and a white shirt underneath. He had a brown skin tone and fuzzy hair. I had no idea what his talent was suppose to be; from what I’ve heard it has something to do with telling time, but that’s all. I’d never heard of him being in a hospital, but most people just call him the Doctor. I actually knew him from fifth grade, where he helped me when I was dealing with depression. It had been a long time though, and I’d heard he was pretty popular with the girls. I figured he probably didn’t remember me.

To my surprise, however, his eyes lit up when he saw me approach. “Derpy, is that you? It’s been so long! So tell me, champ, how’s it been?” He gave one of those cute, irresistible smiles.

“I’m doing fine, though I’m shocked that you actually remember me.” The fact that he still remembered after all these years made my heart thump a mile a minute.

He smiled deeply. “Oh pish posh, how I could forget the only friend I made in elementary school. I thought I was never gonna see you again.”

“I thought so too.” My gosh, I loved that british accent.

“Well, we should move on and introduce ourselves to the others, but we should hang out once this is over.”

I smiled and blushed. “Sure.” I headed to next person.

“You should know me by now, unless you’ve been living under a rock. The name is Sunset Shimmer.”

Sunset Shimmer: Super High School Level Princess

She wore a slick black jacket with a purple shirt with a sun mark on it. She also had an orange skirt with a light yellow and purple stripe and black boots with a purple flame design. She had a yellow skin tone and flaming long hair that seemed to burn like the sun. Everything I’ve heard about her was mostly negative. Throughout my middle school days I was told how she thought she was better than everybody - allegedly because she’s a ‘princess from another world.’ That sounded pretty ridiculous, but I figured that maybe when she says ‘another world,’ she means another country, though I don’t know where that could possibly be. Whatever the case, she tended to use her princess story to justify doing whatever she wanted.

“Um, hello there. My name is-”

“Don’t speak.” She interrupts me.

“Ok...” I obeyed.

“You will speak to me only when I speak to you.”

“.....” I stay quiet for a while but then I realized that she didn’t intend to speak to me at all. Well, that was fine, I honestly didn’t care much. I quickly went to the next person after her.

“Lyra here! Hope you’re feelin’ good.”

Lyra: Super High School Level Harpist

She had a yellow shirt and white shorts with a green stripe, as well as a pair of long boots. Her skin was light green and she had beautiful white and green hair. I remembered seeing her once in a talent show; her music was the most soothing thing I’d ever heard. It came as no surprise when she ended up getting a music contract.

“Its nice to meet new people.” She smiled.

“Yes it is. My name is Derpy.”

She looked at me very oddly. “I see. Well, I hope I get to know you a lot more... you might have something I’m interested in.”

I had no idea what she is talking about and I had to admit she was creeping me out a bit. I’d heard rumors that she has a interest of horse biology... I don’t know what that had to do with me but I somehow got the strangest feeling that that was connected to the way she was looking at me.

“Am I creeping you out?” she asks.

“No, I’m just a little uncomfortable here.” I tugged at my shirt a bit just to get some air.

“Well, I’ll go talk to someone else if you want.” She grinned.

“Sure.” I started talking to the girl next to her.

“Hi there. My name is Bon Bon.”

Bon Bon: Super High School Level Candy Maker

She wore a simple looking yellow shirt, a skirt with blue and yellow stripes, and dark blue boots. Her skin was cream colored and her hair was blue and pink. I’d heard from kids around town that her candy was the best in the world. They tended to eat it until they got sick, not that anybody could blame them. The candy was just that good!

“Hi my name is-”

“Derpy, I know,” she interrupted me.

“What? How?” I asked in confusion.

“You introduced yourself to the others so much, I was bound to overhear at least once,” she said with a smile.

“Oh. So tell me, what kind of candy do you make?”

“All kinds. It’d be easier to tell you which kinds I don’t make. Anyway, sorry for my friend creeping you out.”

“Oh, you mean Lyra? Don’t worry about it.”

She looked away, looking a bit sad. “She tends to get that way around certain people. It’s probably why she doesn't have much friends other than me. She’s a nice person once you get to know her more.”

“Ok. Well I should go talk to that last person. Talk to you later!” With that I left those two and introduced myself to the final student.

“Hello there. My name is Flash Sentry.”

Flash Sentry: Super High School Level Guitarist

He wore a black jacket with a red and white stripe across it, slightly scuffed blue jeans, and black shoes with a white stripe down the center. His shirt bore a picture of a shield with a yellow lightning bolt over it. He had a yellowish skin tone with spiked blue hair. Like the doctor, he was the type of guy who girls thought was just perfect. He was a well known guitar player in a band that he started with his group of friends. He dated Sunset for a while, but it didn’t last thanks to her personality.

“If you gonna ask me out for a date then I’m not interested,” he said as soon as he saw me.

“That’s rather out of the blue.” When did I even think of asking him out?

“Sorry about that. It’s just that I already have too many girls that ask me out and I don’t feel like dating for a while.”

“Ah. Does it have anything to do with Sunset?”

“Oh yeah. It took me way too long to realize what kind of person she was.” He hung his head in sadness.

Before I could say anything else, Sunset interrupted me. “Alright, now that we’ve introduced ourselves, can we figure out why we’re here already?”

“That’s right,” Dr. Whooves agreds. “Derpy, do you remember what happened when you entered the school?”

“Yeah,” I answered. “When I first stepped onto the school grounds, I got knocked out.”

“That’s exactly what happened to the rest of us,” Lyra said.

“What do you think it means?” Photo Finish asked.

“I think I know,” Sunset said. “This is a kidnapping.”

Once she said those words, a wave of fear spread out among us.

“You mean someone’s going to hold us here against our will?” Sweetie Belle asked in a scared voice.

“Well, whoever it is, they’re messing with the wrong girl!” Scootaloo balled her hands into fists.

“As if you could do anything,” Tiara said, Silver Spoon laughing along with her.

“So you’re saying we’re stuck here?” Berry Punch asked.

“I don’t think so,” said Octavia.

“What are you talking about?” Gilda demanded, the conversation trying her temper.

Octavia looks a little intimidated, but continues. “Well from the look of it, the windows aren't boarded up at all and I’ve taken a look outside. Nothing seems out of the ordinary.”

“I guess so… said Berry Punch. “Let’s just go outside I guess. If we were kidnapped, somebody would try to stop us. Maybe us all passing out didn’t mean anything. After all, I do it all the time.”

“Ugh. This is the type of commoner I have to associate with?” Sunset scoffed.

Regardless of Berry’s theory about passing out, there were a set of doors on the side of the auditorium that looked like they led outside. We all walked over to them, and sure enough they opened easily.

Outside, we saw the school’s a huge football and track field. Beyond that, however, the outside  looked nothing like before. Our entire hometown was replaced with some bizarre place that looked straight out of a cartoon.

“What is going on!” Snails screams.

“It’s just like I thought. We were kidnapped.” Sunset smirks.

“Trixie ask why are you so calm about this!”

“Yeah. That doesn’t make any sense… unless you have something to do with this.” Snowflake gives her a wary glance.

“I wouldn’t put it past her.” Flash said “After all, she does came from a far away kingdom, so she might have some powerful organization at her disposal.”

“Don’t make that kind of accusation so quickly,” Dr. Whooves warned. “Besides, I don’t think any normal kingdom kingdom would have the resources to do this kind of thing.”

Sunset stayed quiet for a moment, her expression unreadable. My first guess was that she was happy someone stood up for her, but she didn’t seem to care all that much. It may have just been a look of condescension at Flash.

“Besides, if she is involved, why is she here with us?” The Doctor stated.

“Maybe she’s here to spy on us.” Flash suggested.

“Then go find evidence to support your claim.” Once he said that, Flash couldn’t help but feel defeated. He stayed quiet.

Once everyone calmed down, I spoke up. “Why don’t we check out the area. It’ll be better for us to all know where we are.”

“Good idea” Bon Bon agreed. “But let’s be careful. We still don’t know what this place is or how we got here.”

Trixie started to lead the way. “Very well, follow me! As we explore this unknown, potentially deadly territory, I, the great and powerful Trixie, will protect us from potential threats with her mighty spe-”

Diamond Tiara knocked her on the head, interrupting her monologue. “Hey don’t scream like that! You might attract someone dangerous!”

While they were bickering, I saw the TMC heading off toward the neighborhood. The rest of the group soon followed them (Trixie and Diamond Tiara catching on rather late, much to their embarrassment).

We soon arrived to a group of houses set up in two parallel lines. Scootaloo checked one of them up close and saw that it had a nameplate on it. “Hey!” She shouted. “This says it’s my house!”

Silver Spoon scoffed at the idea that we’d been given that kind of accommodation by kidnappers, but on a whim decided to check the next house, only to find that it was hers.

“I live next to her? Are you kidding me!?” Both girls shouted.

The rest of us looked around and found that each house had been assigned to one of our group. All of them, however, were locked.

“So we have our own houses, but why?” Snips questioned.

“Maybe it’s our kidnapper’s way of saying ‘welcome,’” Sunset answered.

The thought of that made me think that whoever did all this must have had an incredible amount of time on their hands. Before I can say anything though, a loud static noise echoed throughout the town. We looked around and notice that there’s a giant TV monitor on the front of the school. How did we not see that before? It showed a shadowy figure, though I couldn’t make out who it was through all the white noise.

“Testing! 1, 2, 3! Testing!” Its voice was rough, yet squeaky in a way that’s almost cute, but something about it sent chills up my spine. “Ok, I think I got this speaker working. Welcome everybody! I hope you enjoy the scenery, but there’s no time to waste! You probably have a lot of questions, but if you meet me at City Hall, I’ll explain everything.” The screen shut off after that.

Everybody started to panic again.

“Ahhh! Its the kidnapper!” Sweetie Belle shouted in terror.

“Well it’s about time!” Scootaloo said with excitement. “I’m gonna teach this guy a lesson!” She quickly skated off to where the kidnapper said he’d be.

“Hold on Scootaloo! Don’t go alone!” Sweetie Belle said, following her.

“Yeah, wait for us!” Apple Bloom ran after.

“Let's be careful. I got a bad feeling about this.” Snowflake went as well.

“Well it doesn’t matter! I want to know what I’m up against,” Diamond Tiara followed them, with Silver Spoon close behind.

“I! Photo Finish! will show this person some manners!”

“Hey!” Snip and Snails shouted at the same time. “Wait for us!”

“Whoever this punk is, I’m gonna serve him a whole can of whoop ass!” Gilda grinned maliciously.

Soon all of the others were on their way, but I couldn’t help but fear that something horrible was about to happen. My body refused to move until I felt Dr. Whooves’ hand on my shoulder.

“Scared?” he asks.

“Ya a little.” I lie. I’m closer to ‘utterly horrified’ right now.

He just smiled. “Let’s go together then, shall we?”

I turn away and blush uncontrollably. One thing I could say I was glad for was that I could be close to someone I really wanted to hang with. “Ok,” I answered.

We quickly walked through the strange village. The buildings looked like any normal looking houses, but the strange thing was that there was grass everywhere, no roads or sidewalks whatsoever. That certainly wasn’t normal; maybe we really were in some faraway land. The thought of that made me worry about Dinky. She had no idea what happened to me...

We soon met up with the others and at a large building. A banner was displayed proudly across the front.

Welcome, our new Mayor!

“Well it’s about time you two showed up!” Lyra shouted. “What took you so long?”

Before I could answer, the same voice we heard from the monitor interrupted me. “It seems that we’re all here. Lets get going!” We all turned toward the sound of the voice: At first it seemed to be just a podium in front of City Hall, but suddenly something shot out from behind it and landed on top. It looked like a teddy bear, colored half black and half white. The white half was normal enough, but the black one had a glaring red eye and half of a monstrous grin. The kidnapper himself wasn’t there, only that weird toy.

“Is this a fucking joke?” Gilda said angrily.

“Trixie said watch your language!” Trixie pointed at her accusingly. “There are kids here who should not learn that kind of talk!”

“I think so too.” The same voice we heard before spoke up again. We all looked around, still not seeing the source, until it came again. “I’m right here you bastards!” When we looked back to the podium, we saw that the bear was actually standing up on its own. “Well, now that you’re all focused on me, let’s get started!”

All of us were pretty much speechless. That kind of thing should be impossible!

“What in tarnation? It spoke!” Apple Bloom shouted.

“Of course I can speak, you little brat! I’m MonoKuma and I’m just as alive as any of you!” he shouted indignantly.

“Trixie doesn’t believe this. It could be remote controlled,” she suggested.

“Upupupu...” MonoKuma chuckled in a rather bizarre fashion. “That’s stupid! I happen to be very much alive.”

“Forget if it’s real or not!” Gilda shouted with intense anger. “Answer me this you piece of shit: are you the kidnapper?”

“Upupupupu! Of course. I was the one that brought you all here.”

Gilda smiled and smacked her fist into her hand. “Well now that that’s settled, I’m gonna kick your ass!”

“Before you do. Let me tell why all of you are here. At least let me live for that!” Monokuma begged.

Gilda hesitantly lowered her arms. “Fine, get talkin’.”

“Ok then. You see, the 20 of you were selected to live in this area, which I like the to call the MonoKuma Town, for the rest of your lives.”

“Wait, you're saying that we’re being forced to be here?” Octavia shouted.

“There is no way I’m getting stuck here! I! Photo Finish! have to be somewhere by now!”

“Well, that’s the rule.” Monokuma said. “At least it’s one of them, anyway. There is a way out, if you want, and that is by destroying the order of this place. If you did that, then I’ll be happy to let you leave.” His smile grew rather unsettling.

“What do you mean ‘destroying the order?” Sunset asked.

Mono Bears answered without missing a beat. “Well that’s simple! All you have to do is murder someone!”

That sentence alone nearly knocked the breath from us. To murder someone... That is the lowest thing anyone could possibly do!

“Your joking right?” Flash said, his voice shaking a little. The rest of us all felt the same way.

“Of course,” Taria said, trying to mask her fear. “He has to be joking. I mean, as goofy looking as he is, how could you take anything he says that seriously?”

Mono bear just laughed maniacally. “Nope, It’s the truth! In order to get out of the place, you have to kill someone! Any way will work, like beating, stabbing, drowning, etc.” He jumped off the podium and walked into the middle of our group. “When you do kill somebody, then you’ll be able to leave.”

“LIKE HELL WE WILL!” Gilda shouted. “Or, since you say you want us to kill, then I choose to kill you!” She picked him up roughly off the ground.

“AHHHH!” MonoKuma panicked and struggled against her grasp. “You’re assaulting the mayor! MONOGUARDS, PROTECT YOUR MAYOR!”

“Mono Guards?” Gilda asked, pausing for just a moment before the ground started shaking and four enormous machines charged into the area. One was shaped like a Unicorn with machine gun turrets on its back and a rocket launcher for a horn, the second was a bear with cartoonish spiked boxing gloves, third was an Eagle with razor-like feathers, and last was a Bunny with equally sharp ears and teeth.

All of us were horrified at the appearance of the Mono Guards, but Gilda, who had completely frozen in place, was probably feeling it the worst.

“Save me from this hooligan!” Monokuma yelped as he desperately struggle to get out her grasp. Instantly, the unicorn pointed its gatling guns at Gilda and opened fire. She would have been cut down right there but Snowflake was able to tackle her out of the way just in time.

“Are you alright?” Snowflake asked.

Gilda just shoved him off roughly. “Yeah, I’m fine! I didn't get shot did I?” It seemed that was the closest she could come to making a genuine apology.

Even though she was saved, though, the Mono Guards’ display of lethal power was more than enough to ensure that none of us would doubt the danger.

“Wahhhhhh!” Snails shouted, falling into a fetal position.

“This...This…” That was the most that Photo Finish could get out.

“Oh crap, oh crap, oh crap...” Flash sentry was utterly scared out of his mind.

“Uppupupupu… Hahahahaha!” Mono bear laughed gloatingly. “Now that you know the punishment for assaulting the Mayor, it looks like you all know your place.”

“It looks like we can’t oppose you at the moment...” Dr. Whooves said tensely.

“Now that I got my point across,I suppose I’ll be taking my leave now. But before I go…” He throws us a bunch of electronic devices. We all pick them up, fearing what the Mono Guards might do if we refuse. “These are your your very own PDAs. Don’t lose them as they is your guide and key to accessing some of the many locations here. Well then, I’ll see ya all later!” He darted off with the Mono Guards soon doing the same.

We all stood frozen as the gravity of the situation began to sink in.

“This… this sucks!” Scootaloo finally shouted. It was all she could get out, but it broke the tension a little

“‘This sucks?’ ‘This sucks!?’  More like we’re in Hell!” Silver Spoon yelled angrily.

“Hey, calm down. Let’s check the rules that this psycho bear left us. It’s better than just standing here,” Vinyl Scratch suggested.

I checked and see the menu screen of the PDA and saw an option that said “Laws.” I opened it up and found these rules:

1) Citizens are to live out their lives here in the town.

2) From 10:00 pm to 7:00 am is considered “night time.” During night time, Citizens should stay in their homes at all costs.

3) If you stay somewhere like in a store or anywhere other than your home, then that will be treated as you sleeping there.

4) You are allowed to explore the area as much as you please, provided you do not go too far.

5) Violence against the Mayor is prohibited as well as the destruction of surveillance cameras.

6) A criminal who kills a fellow Citizen will be able to leave this area if they can conceal their guilt from other students.

7) Additional laws will be added if necessary.

The thought of these rules controlling my life made my gut ache. I just couldn't stand the idea of that bear having us all in his grip like that.

“Like I’m gonna follow some damn rules!” Gilda shouted. “Who ever that bear is, I’m gonna fucking murder him!”

“Now, now,” Bon Bon said, desperately trying to calm her down, “let’s not get hasty and tick the bear off again.”

“He’s not the only one we need to look out for,” said the Doctor.

“What do you mean by that?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“Us. We have to keep in mind that there’s no telling what the rest of us are willing to do. We will all have to work together in order to get out of here, and hope that nobody does what Mono bear said and kill someone else for our own safety.”

Everybody looks around at each other with fear and suspicion. It wasn't a pretty thought, but there was no denying it was true. The worst part though, was the idea that even then someone could have been contemplating murder.

Talk about the start of a new life, huh?

To Be Continued

Chapter 1, The new Murderous life (Ab)Normal days: Day 1

A thick veil of mist surrounded me, obscuring my vision. Confused, I began to walk forward slowly, desperately trying to wave the mist away from my face. Eventually, I could just barely make out a person’s outline in the distance. As I ran closer, it began to look like the Doctor… and someone was there too, standing behind him with a knife in their hand.

“DOCTOR!” I shouted with all my might, but it didn't reach to him before the knife stabbed into his back. “NOOOO!”

I shot up in my bed, breathing heavily. “What a nightmare.” I looked around, seeing that I was still in the house I’d been assigned to yesterday. Unfortunately, that part hadn't been just a nightmare. I looked at the clock and saw that it was 6:51 AM.

I took a deep breath to calm myself down. “I guess I should go make some breakfast.” I got up and headed to the kitchen with a sad look on my face.

Time to start my new life, I guess...

Chapter 1: The new murderous life.

I pour myself a bowl of Monokuma-O’s. A custom made vanity product, I presume. Once the time hits 7:00 AM, the T.V in my house turns on. The screen shows MonoKuma wearing a top hat and a paper around him saying Congratulations, New Mayor. Oh ha ha.

“Alright everybody! Its time to rise and shine as you have a big day. Now go out and live life before it ends.” It turned off once he finished the message. I quickly ate my breakfast and headed out. Just before I left, I grabbed the pen that Dinky had given me the day before.

“If I only knew it’d turn out like this, I never would have come here...” I gripped the pen tightly. I really wanted to see my daughter one last time. I knew there must have been a way out of there, I just had to find it!

When I left, the first thing I saw outside was something that made me really happy: The Doctor himself waving to me. “Hello there Derpy. Sleep well?”

I couldn't help but blush. I got a little lost in thought, which the Doctor noticed.

“Um, I guess you didn't sleep well?” He asked.

“OH!” I quickly snapped out of my trance. “Sorry if I weirded you out. Yeah, I didn't get enough sleep, ha ha ha.” I fake a laugh.

“Me neither. I just can’t sleep at night thinking of innocents being forced to kill each other.” He clenched a fist. “It just makes me sick!”

I can really feel every bit of his anger. He had all the fury of someone who’d already seen this kind of thing happen. Well he is a doctor but I never heard of any work he did in the medical field. Maybe when he is young or something.

“Oh, I forgot something!” he said. “Derpy, the others are at the school. We’re gonna meet up there from now on.” He offers a hand, smiling.

“Sure!” I took his hand. You know, if there was any positive to being stuck here, then this would be it. We soon reached Canterlot Academy, where I noticed two people already standing outside: Vinyl Scratch and Octavia. The former didn’t look to good?

“Come on, Vinyl! Wake up and stop making that face!” Octavia shook her back and forth but it was no use. Vinyl just stood there in a daze, wearing a distraught grimace. “Ugh! This is useless!”

“Need any help?” I offered.

“Oh no, don’t worry about it. I think I almost got through to her. Ever since we saw what that bear could do, she’s been like this. I had to sleep over at her house!” She didn't seem to be happy. Still, I couldn't blame her for being like that. All of us were pretty much terrified of him after that.

“Are you sure?” Asked the Doctor.

“Yes, I’ll handle this. Go meet up with the others. Tell them that we are both busy with something. COME ON VINYL!” She shakes her again.

The Doctor and I went inside and made our way to the lunch room, where the other students were already waiting.

“Hey there you two are!” Silver Spoon shouted. “Where are Vinyl and Octavia?”

“They say they’re busy,” Doctor answered.

“Well then where have you been?” Snowflake asked with curiosity.

“Probably spending time alone with each other.” Flash suggested, raising his eyebrows.

I blush a little. “No, its nothing like that.”

“Oh great!” Diamond Tiara shouted. “Not only am I here being forced against my will to live here, I’m also in a romantic comedy! BLEGH!”

“Hey, isn't there someone else missing here?” Berry asked. It took me a moment to realize that Sunset wasn’t there. However, no sooner did I notice it than the girl herself slammed the door open and stormed in.

“UGH, I HATE THIS PLACE!” she shouted.

“You don’t expect the bear to go easy on you just because you’re a princess, are you?” Apple Bloom said dismissively.

“SHUT UP!” she shouted at her. “If our kidnapper really wants us to live here for a long time then he or she should of put me in a nice home fit for a princess. Not those small houses!”

“I like the way you think there,” Taira smiled along with Silver Spoon.

“Regardless, let’s focus on what’s really at stake here,” Lyra suggested. We all gather around one of the wide tables. Soon enough, Octavia and Vinyl came in and sat with us.

“Ok, I managed to snap her out of it. You wouldn't believe how scared she was.” Octavia rolled her eyes.

“Hey,” Vinyl shouted. “I wasn't scared! I was um... um… asleep! Yeah, I was asleep.” We all rolled our eyes.

“All right.” The Doctor said, leaning forward on the table. “Like Lyra said, we need to discuss the situation at hand.”

“Well we know that we’re being forced to live here by that fucking psycho.” Gilda said, her anger almost tangible. “Oh, and the only way to get off here is by murdering someone. Any more that we didn't know, captain dumbass?”

“Now, now,” Snips interrupted her. “I think he means that there might be more to what’s going on than Monokuma let on.”

“And what would that be?” Gilda stared at Snips with a such a threatening look that he soon found himself hiding under the table.

During all that, Snails noticed that Sweetie Belle was a little out of it. “Everything all right, Sweetie Belle?” he asked.

“I was wondering about something. What does the second part of rule number 6 mean? I don’t get it to be honest.”

I took a look at the rule she was talking about and frankly it confused me too.

6) The criminal who kills a fellow Citizen will be able to leave this area if they conceal their guilt from other students.

As we looked over the rule, someone started snickering. All eyes turned to Sunset.

“Why are you laughing?” Photo Finish asked, noticeably disturbed.

“I got your answer,” she grinned. “That rule right there? It implies that the innocent students have to figure out who the killer is.”

I shuddered. It sounded almost like Monokuma wanted some this to work like some kind of murder mystery game.

“I bet I know who will try to kill first,” Flash muttered, looking toward Sunset.

“Oh Flash my dear,” she stood up and leaned toward him, giving him a big, fake smile. “Do you really think I would kill somebody with so little time to think it through?” she laughed.

He stood up and looked back at her angrily. “I know how you work. If anyone here values escaping more than innocent life, it’s you.”

She just smiled back. “Well then, why don’t you kill me first?” Her tone and posture showed nothing but confidence and condescension.

“Hey you two! knock it off!” the Doctor interrupted. “I suggest you two start to get along or else.” The two got off each other’s backs and sat back down. “Ok, now since that’s settled, I have a suggestion to make.” His presence was such that no one could look away. “We need to explore this area. We couldn't do that yesterday since it was close to night time and everybody needed to digest what is going on. Since we’re all a bit less distracted today, I think we are ready to see what kind of place this is.”

The rest of us nodded in agreement. If we wanted to get ourselves out of here then we needed know where ‘here’ was.

“Ok now that we are in agreement, I suggest that we split into teams of 5.”

“Count me out.” Naturally, this came from none other than Sunset. “What makes you think I would work with you lowly knaves?”

Bon Bon spoke. “But if we don’t work together, we might-”

“Might nothing!” Sunset interrupted. “You all thinking the same thing. All you are planning your way out of here as we speak. It’s only a matter of time.” She got up and left the cafeteria. As much as I was afraid to admit it but she had a point. There was no way to know if everyone was really willing to help each other. Even if they didn’t want to now, eventually someone here might break down kill somebody. No! I couldn't let that happen! We would just have to find a way out of here!

We soon split into groups, like the Doctor said. Me, the Doctor, Berry Punch, Flash, and Gilda made group 1. Group 2 consisted of Photo Finish, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Snips, and Snails. Group 3 was made up of the TMC, Snowflake, and Trixie. The final group had Bon Bon, Lyra, Vinyl, and Octavia. We headed to the middle of the town. At City Hall, we saw that there were 6 pathways around the main building. Sunset pretty much has two of the pathways cover since she left the cafeteria early then us.

My group took the middle path, one that led to a district filled with stores. The street’s name was called Sugar Cube Corner. We all decided to spread out and check the stores there. I went into some kind of candy store. Inside there were tables, a bar and a whole row of candy samples. Behind the bar there were a lot of cakes and sweet goods.

“They do look tasty.” I licked my lips eagerly. I had to shake my head to regain  focus. I went upstairs and found two rooms. The first room appeared to be a baby’s room with a bunch of plushies and a crib. I examined the crib and found two names on it: Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake. The next room I checked was a normal looking room but with lots of party stuff. Streamers everywhere, balloons, and even a cake on the bed. I looked up and saw a banner that said “Happy Birthday Pinkie Pie!”

“Did someone use to live here?” I asked out loud. What I didn't expect was to get a response.

“Well, sort of.” I looked behind me and I jumped when I saw MonoKuma right next to me. “Oh, did I scare ya?”

I ignored his question and asked some of my own, furiously. “What is this place? Have you done this before? Have there been other people that you forced to play this sick game?”

He laughed. “Now now, don’t get you undies in a twist!” He shrugged casually. “Your group is the first one I did when I came to this world.”

“Wait, what do you mean by ‘this world?’”

“Oh, don’t you worry about that. Anyway, that’s all I have to say. Enjoy yourself!” he said before disappearing.

“This world…” I still didn't like the implications of what he’d just said, but I decided that I couldn't do much about it. For all I knew he was just playing some weird joke anyway. I headed outside to check the rest of the place out. There were other stores like a garden shop, a spa, and a lot more. It was more medieval looking to say the least. Before long, I found what seemed to be its border, where I found a little cottage. It looked rather interesting, so went inside and took a look around. It was a cozy little place, but there wasn't too much in it. The only thing out of the ordinary at first glance was the copious amounts of little mouse holes in the walls.

I was about to leave when I saw one other thing that piqued my interest: a little framed picture of a pony and a bunny. The weird thing was that the pony seemed to be posing for the photo, sort of like a human would. I thought it was rather strange at first, but it paled in comparison to the second thing I noticed: the pony had wings. I figured immediately that it must have been a photo shop trick, but there was just something so… natural, so organic about it. Whoever made it must have been REALLY good. I had to wonder why anyone would have something like this displayed like a normal family photo? I put the picture the down and left, because the weirdness of it was just creeping me out.

I continued on the path past the cottage until I found a sign that said ‘City Limits.’ I looked past and saw a wide open field with nothing else for miles.

I wondered… could I just run? Monokuma said not to go too far, but I couldn't see anything to stop me… maybe I could run far away and get help for the others? It was astounding that Monokuma’s defenses would be that flimsy, but what did I have to lose from trying?

As it turned out, quite a lot.

As soon as I’d taken a few steps past the sign, I heard a monstrous shriek and the Eagle Monoguard landed in front of me. I froze in terror as it flashed its sword like wings. It pulled one back and prepared to swing at me, but I was too frightened to move.

I felt something tug at the back of my shirt, and found myself pulled away from the Monoguard as it swung. I could see the wing cut through even the air itself right where my neck was just a second before.

Whoever had grabbed me pulled me back behind the City Limit sign. Seeing that I wasn't trying to leave anymore, the eagle didn't try to attack again, and simply flew away, though not so far that it wouldn't be able to come right back...

“Are you ok?” I hear the Doctor ask. I turn to see that he was the one who saved me. He looked me over and saw that I wasn't hurt. “Thank goodness I got here when I did.” I was really happy to see how worried he was for me, but I noticed that his concern was quickly turning to anger. “Just what were you thinking, you could have gotten killed!”

I looked down, ashamed. I was being clumsy and careless again, like always...

I felt the Doctor’s hand on my shoulder, and looked back at him to see that he was calming down. “Sorry I yelled. It’s just that I don’t like seeing people getting hurt. If that Monoguard had gotten you, I don’t know what I would do.”

I couldn't help but be happy at that he cared so much. “Its OK. It was my fault anyway.”

He taken a deep breath. “Well we should head back. The others are probably done exploring and we should report on what we saw.”

I nodded. After that experience, I wished I could be as strong as him. It took us a while to get to the school but I didn't mind it much, as that meant I got to spend some more time with him. Once we got to the school, we noticed that everybody else was done with their exploration.

“Well look at that, those two were off having a party on their own. How sweet,” Vinyl said as she noticed that I was holding hands with the Doctor. I quickly pull it away and we both pretended it was nothing.

“Please,” Diamond Tiara scoffed. “We don’t want any of that here.”

“Besides. We need to deliver our reports on the places we explored.” Lyra said.

Our group was the first to go. I told them about the stores and the cottage. Doctor told them about the Monoguard blocking the exit, and the other groups all claimed to have seen the same thing. Flash, Gilda, and Berry told us that there are other stores like donuts shop, clothes shop, and more houses there. The second group begin to give us their progress report.

“I! Photo Finish found a boutique and clothing story just a little far from here.”

“Yeah, that’s where we got these really cute dresses.” Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon begin to show off a pair of new outfits, being especially boastful to the TMC. The trio rolled their eyes in annoyance, and I couldn't have agreed with them more.

“Our group found a farm called Sweet Apple Acres,” Snails mentioned.

“That’s nothing!” Snips shouted. “Next to that farm, we found a house actually floating up in the sky!” Everybody thought he was crazy, but Photo Finish had actually taken a picture.

“What he is saying is the truth. I couldn't believe it myself.” She put the picture in the middle of the table. It was shocking to see that its true. Is this a new discovery of some sort of tech we never heard about?

Next is groups three’s report.

“Well we found another school here,” Sweetie Belle mentioned. “It has a weird looking design to it, like a barn”

“Boring!” Scootaloo shouted. “Nobody wants to know that. The important thing is the entrance to the woods we found.”

“It looked really scary.” Applebloom shook at the memory. “It’s probably not wise to go in there.”

“I made sure they were safe.” Snowflake mentioned to keep most of us feel comfortable. “Me and Trixie also found a building that was carved into a big tree.”

“It appeared to be a library of some kind but Trixie found something strange,” Trixie announced. “There were no words in any of the books! Trixie finds that very weird.”

A library with blank books? Darn! I was hoping they could give us some answers. The final group begin to give their report.

“Me and Lyra saw some more buildings. Nothing special to report about.” Bon Bon said. “there is a train station there, but it doesn't seem to work.”

“And even if we get it to work, I doubt that the Monoguard would let us leave with it.” Lyra crossed her arms and shook her head.

“Well I made an amazing discovery!” Vinyl shouted with excitement. “During one of my searches in one of the houses, I found this!” She pulled out a little box with a red button. “Now watch this.” She pressed the button and threw the box toward an empty space and there it forms into a two high def stereo's, a front stage table with a mic attach along with records and many other equipment. “I never been so happy in my life” She let out a tear.

Octavia facepalmed. “I know that’s going to get annoying. Anyway, there is a windmill here. I guess that might be our power source for all the stuff we use in our homes.”

Once everybody was done with their reports, I saw that there were no signs or clues to help us get out of this place. Just then, the doors slammed open and Sunset Shimmer came in carrying something in her hands. She puts it on the table, revealing a map of the entire town along with areas we haven’t visited.

“Where did you get this?” Photo Finish asked.

“Mono bear left this while he was looking for something.”

“You took something from him!” Sweetie bell shouted.

“Ooh, you're so in trouble when he finds out!” Scootaloo pointed at Sunset.

Sunset shrugged. “It doesn't matter anyway. Besides, he knows by now anyway since the cameras have been watching everything we did.” I’d almost forgotten about them; I sort of wish she didn't remind me. “It seems that this bear owns a large kingdom. If I take him out, I could claim his throne.” Typical. I knew she would be thinking about that.

“Well, all that searching was pointless,” Gilda said. “Now we still don’t know jack shit about how to get out.”

“Hey! Trixie said watch your language!” Trixie yelled.

“She does have a point though.” Tiaria backed up her statement. “We have no idea what to do now.”

We all stay in silent for a while until the Doctor broke the silence. “Well, we do have one option.” Everybody started to listen. “We are going to have to do what he said and live here for a while.”

“That is bullshit!” Gilda shouted with anger.

“Trixie said watch your language!” she repeated.

“I know,” said the Doctor. “We all want to get out of here, but we’re just gonna have to wait it out. It’s clear that this bear is a lot more prepared than we thought.” He had a point. Mono bear has 4 robotic guards on his sided. What was worst was that he was always watching us. Nobody could fight that.

“For once I actually agree with the doctor,” Sunset said. I’m surprised that she would agree with him. Why did that make me feel so jealous? “As your princess, I order everybody to live their lives here until the big day comes when we dethrone that bear.”

We all agreed that if we waited it out a bit, the bear would slip up and that is when we would strike. Once the meeting is over, Everybody heads out. They all have concern looks whether this is a good idea or not. But I know with a little determination, it just might be our ticket out of here. Me and the Doctor were the last ones to get out. Before I could go to my house, he laid a hand on my shoulder.

“Hey, Derpy. Um...” It was a bit awkward. “Since we are gonna be stuck for a while, do you want to hang out?”

When I heard those words, I mentally squealed like a little girl.

“You know I did promise we could hang out and…”

“YES!” I shouted. Embarrassed, I tried toning it down a bit. “Oh sorry. I mean yes.”

He laugh loudly. “Oh Derpy. You always seem to find a way to make me laugh.” He wipes a tear out of his eye. “Well, shall we get going?”

As long as I was stuck there, I figured it might as well be with the Doctor. We headed to city hall and there he stands on the steps in from of the entrance. “You know. Its been so long since we hung out together.”

“Yeah… I remember in the fifth grade you said that my eyes were interesting. It was a lot better than what most people said about them.”

“Well I still stand by that fact. You haven’t been bullied a lot since I left, right?” He asked in worried tone.

“No not really. In fact people are a little nice to me. Maybe that's because I have a daughter and people heard about me raising her.”

“Daughter?” He stayed silent for a moment. “Oh I see. So you are pretty much...”

“NO! NO! NO!” I wave both of my hands back and fourth. “She is adopted. Nobody was willing to take her so I took her in under my wing.”

“Oh, thank goodness.” He notice me staring at him in frustration. “I mean Ahh, so you adopted a little girl?”

“Yeah. She doesn't have anybody else to go to, so I gave her a home. But it looks like that is the only thing she will see.” I couldn't stop thinking that Dinky was getting lonely. I started cry but the Doctor came up to me and wiped my tears away.

“Hey, don’t worry about it. You’ll see your daughter again, I promise you that.” He smiled.

He was right. I knew I would will see my daughter again, no matter what. Still, there was one thing I had to ask him. “So Doc, can I ask you something?”

He looks at me. “Yes?”

“What does Time Management mean?”

“Well, let’s say that it represents more than me telling time.”

“You lying to me. Please just tell me what it means.”

He pushed me away a bit. “Sorry, but that is a secret that I can’t tell.” From the look of his face, he really wanted to keep it hidden. I guessed I should give it a pass then.

“It’s alright. You don’t need to tell me now. I’ll just wait till your ready.” I was still really curious, but if he really didn't want to...

“Thanks. You were always a nice girl, especially compared to some of the other girls here.” He sighed. I could see what he meant: two or three people came to mind.

I talk with the Doctor like their was no tomorrow. We pretty much catch up a lot and getting to know more of each other as we did. After a few hours I head back to my house

Once there, I laid on my bed. I’d done a lot so far today, but as I looked at my clock, it saw it was about 3:00 PM. I didn’t want to stay there all day, so I decided to head to the boutique that Photo Finish mentioned. Once I got there, I noticed it looked really… ‘upper class’ would be fitting I think. I entered and saw that there were a lot of dresses on display as well as a runway for models.

“Wow, these dresses are amazing!” I looked where that voice came from and saw Photo Finish praising the dresses. What was weird though was that all the dresses were on pony shaped mannequins. She turned around and seemed very happy to see me.

“Oh, you came just in the nick of time!” She grabbed me by the arm. “I need you to put on that dress over there.” She pointed at one of the pony looking mannequins with a simple looking dress with a flower hat.

“Um, I don’t know...” I wanted to refuse, but the look on her face was just irresistible. I figured if we were gonna live here, I might as well help her out with this. “Alright, I guess.”

After putting on the dress, I looked at myself at the mirror. I really did look beautiful. I wonder what the Doctor would say if he saw me in this...

“Wow, Darling! Everybody will adore you when they see you in that dress!” She began to take pictures. “So tell me, have you thought about my offer?” She rubbed her hands hopefully.

“I’m still thinking about it.” I didn't know if I really wanted to be a model, to be honest.

“No problem. Good things come to those who wait.” She took a deep breath. “Tell me. Are you ever picked on because you can never reach the kind of beauty people normally look for?”

“Sort of...” I think I got what she is saying. I was mostly picked on because of my eyes. “Have you been bullied?” I ask out of curiosity

“No, I wasn't, but I have seen people like you being bullied to no end.” She looked down at the ground. “It kinda makes me sick.”

I was a little surprised by that. “You know, I never would have taken you for that kind of person.”

“What? What makes you think that? Is it because I’m an upper class fashionista?” He puts her fingers on her chest. “Perish the thought. I! Photo Finish! put my entire being into seeing what makes mankind beautiful.” I guess it’s better not to judge a book by its cover. She certainly didn't.

“So you see beauty no matter where it comes from?”

“Let me tell you something, beauty can come from anyone if they are willing to show it.” She holds up a photo of 3 girls. “Takes this girls for example. People had convinced them that they were just losers, but now, with my help, they recognize that they’re not losers at all, but important, beautiful people!”

To think that I’m being lectured by a women with strong words and yet she doesn't look like the type of person would give that. “I can see your point.”

“Well of course. After all, I like it when people smile. It makes the picture even more beautiful than before.” She was wearing a pretty big smile herself. With that passion of hers, it was clear how important that beauty was for her.

After a while of trying out dresses for her, I headed back to my house. Once I got there, the T.V turned on and we could see a clear picture of Monokuma with his banner and top hat. “Attention Citizens, it’s 10:00 PM so every store of any kind is now closed. Stay at your homes and have a good night.” It turns off after that.

“Well, time for me to spend my second night here.” I got into bed and began to get lost in thought. “I wonder how Dinky is doing...” I couldn't stop worrying about her. I just hoped Mr. and Ms. Cake were taking good care of her. As the thought clouded my mind I drifted to sleep, leaving me in complete darkness until the next day.

Chapter 1, The new Murderous life (Ab)Normal days: Day 2

The TV turned on as soon as the clock hit 7 AM. I soon see mono bear with his usual look. “Alright everybody, it’s time to rise and shine as you have a big day. Now go out and live life before it ends.” It turned off afterwords.

I got out of bed. Sleeping another night here was very uncomfortable to say the least. After that I ate breakfast and went to the school to meet the others like last time.

“Well, it our third day of living here and so far its not so bad.” Vinyl admitted.

“Have you gone mad? It’s horrible!” Diamond Tiara shouted.

“Wow, calm down” Berry punch tried to comfort her. “Let’s not make this any harder on ourselves.”

“Have you people forgotten that we are trapped here! It’s scary and lonely and so freaking boring!” She stomped her foot on the ground.

I figured she’d completely forgotten about the Doctor’s plan. Though, given what kind of person she was, it didn’t surprise me that she was getting impatient.

“Well, it looks like the spoiled little shit isn’t tough enough to get through this,” Gilda said, smirking.

“You think just because you're a tough girl, you have the right to talk to me like that!?”Tiara stormed up to her.

“Yeah! Do you know who you’re talking too?” Silver Spoon came in to back her up. “You're mocking one important person here!”

“Ooh, being lazy and talking about how rich you are: you’re so important. Oh, I’m so sorry for what I said… NOT!” She leans back in her chair, putting her feet on the table.

Tiara’s face glowed red. The others couldn’t help but watch the shouting match.

Sunset Shimmer started clapping “Bravo. You two are very entertaining. It’s so nice of you both to keep your princess from getting bored. Keep it up and you might end killing one another.”

“You’re a bitch, you know that right?” Flash called her out.

“Oh boo hoo. Get over it. Isn’t a princess entitled to lord it over her subjects? Besides, like the little brat said, this place is boring.” There was so much anger between them I had to wonder how they could even go out in the first place.

“THAT IS ENOUGH!” The Doctor snapped at them. “Seriously, if you keep this up then you will play into the psycho bear’s trap!” His voice was filled with righteous determination.

Sunset just shook her head.“Doctor, Doctor, Doctor… this is just how everything is. Creatures like us tend to get on each others nerves. Trust me, I know that I tend to step on people’s toes now and then, but as far as I’m concerned, it’s a small price to get my way.” She shrugged. “Well, forget all of you then. I’ll be heading off.” She exited through the nearest door.

“Jeez, lady, you don’t have to be that rude!” Scootaloo said, a bit too late for her to hear.

“Let’s just ignore her. She’s a party pooper anyway, so no need to deal with her.” Vinyl said, crossing her arms casually.

“I think I agree with you for once,” Octavia said. “That girl really needs to be taught some matters!”

I agreed. The scary part was that the only way I could understand why Sunset would feel that way is if I thought of her as having no empathy at all. That didn’t bode well for people trapped in a killing game with her...

“I’m gonna go get some water,” Sweetie Belle said heading to a nearby water fountain. The second she got a mouthful she noticed someone looking over her shoulder. She yelped and fell backwards in shock. We all turned toward her and saw someone there who we really didn’t want to see.

“Hello, you bastards! Hey, did you guys see that? I think I actually got some water to shoot out of her nose!” Monokuma came in with his usual peppy self. I could hardly blame poor Sweetie Belle for getting scared, he wasn’t the type you wanted standing right next to you.

“Trixie demands to know why you are here!” She point her finger at him.

“Oh, I’m just here to see how you are all doing.” He gave us the most innocent look. “After all, isn’t that what a good Mayor should do?”

“Oh Har har!” Applebloom shouted.

“No. A good mayor would not trap me and force me to live here!” Diamond Tiara shouted.

He look down on himself. “Oh come on. I gave you an entire place to live and this is what you give me? I thought we were getting close but it seems you all are just mean.”

“You really are a pathetic excuse for a bear, aren’t you?” Gilda shakes her head. “It just makes me want to kill you even more.”

“Now, now.” Monokuma wiggled a finger at her. “No need to get offensive. Anyway, I do admit there was another reason I came here: I’m bored!”

“And what does this have to do with us?” Lyra asked.

“Well, you see, for the past two days I noticed that nobody has been trying to murder someone.”

“Of course not! Why would I kill someone, even for a way out of here!?” Snails said with anger.

“YA!” Snips shouted. “As long as we are together and have places to stay, I’m not murdering someone!”

“Wow you are all really strong of heart.” He begins to laugh. “But I think I know the real reason why none of you are planning murder. It’s because you don’t have a motive to do so.”

When he said that, everybody started to feel very uncomfortable.

“Mo..Mo..Motive?” Photo Finish ask in fear.

“Well of course.” He puts both of his hands on his mouth to suppress giggles. “I thought I’d give you something that will make you really start considering murder. That’ll liven things up!”

I wasn’t gonna stand for this “If you think you can really get me or anyone else here to kill somebody then you’ve got another thing coming!”

“Uppupupu.” He just laughed at my statement. “Wow, what a stereotypical protagonist line that was! You may talk tough but I know you can’t back it up.” He turns his back on me. “Well I better get the motives for you guys. I’ll see y'all tonight!” He disappeared again. I still couldn’t get how he does that.

“What in tarnation does he mean by motive?” Applebloom asked nervously.

Snowflake took a deep breath. “I think he means that he’s either gonna try and give us an offer we can’t refuse… or a threat we can’t ignore.”

“There is no way that could happen!” Scootaloo shouted.

“Well whatever!” Gilda cross her arms. “He’s not gonna convince me that easily!”

“That bear is getting even creepier with each time he shows up.” Silver Spoon said. “There is no telling on what he has in store for us.”

Snips trembled in fear. “I really don’t want to find out.”

“Listen everybody!” The Doctor got everybody’s attention. “I’m gonna say this right now. Don’t believe anything that that bear says to us.. He is the very definition of a master manipulator.”

“How would you know that?” Diamond Tiara asks curiously.

“It doesn’t matter! All you need to know is that you can’t fall for his tricks.” He turns his back on us. “If you can excuse me. I need to check something that is on my mind.” He walked off without another word.

I started to consider how funny the Doctor had been acting up to that point. First he refused to tell me what his special talent is, and now he was acting like he knows what the bear was gonna do. I couldn’t help but think he was hiding something.

“Come on guys. Don’t let the bear get to you!” Vinyl shouted with a happy sounding tone. “After all, what is he gonna do?”

“Have you forgotten what he is capable of?” Octavia ask in confusion. “Aren’t you scared of his Monoguards, let alone any secret weapons he’s kept up his sleeve til now?”

“I think we should do what the Doctor said and ignore whatever Monokuma is gonna do.” I spoke up. Acting funny or no, the Doctor was right, if we could shrug off whatever Monobear was planning, then maybe we could catch him off guard and have a chance to strike back.

“Will it work?” Sweetie Belle asked in a worried tone.

“It will work!” Berry shouted with excitement. “I just know it will, and I’m with ya 100%!”

It’s nice to have a friend to back you up. After a while I headed back to my house. I lay on my bed for a moment and eased up a bit. As I look at my clock, it was about 11 am. I can’t just lay around and do nothing all day. So I thought I’d try to see if I can hang out with the Doctor again. I went to City Hall but he wasn’t there. I was about to leave, but I stopped when I heard the sounds of a guitar coming from the other side of the building. I took a look and saw Flash playing his guitar. The riffs and chords were simply angelic. Once he stopped playing, I went to congratulate him.

“Wow that was some nice music there.”

“Yeah.” He spoke softly. “Its something that I’ve been perfecting since I was little.”

Since we  were both there I figured I might as well try to get to know him. “Hey, you want to hang out?”

“Sure. Just don’t think that I would end up being your boyfriend.” He snickered.

I got angry at that. “Hey, what makes you think that I even want that!” I stomp my foot.

“Hey, hey!” He realized he may have misspoken. “I was just kidding. Besides you seem to have someone else in mind.”

I blushed as I knew who he was talking about. I sat down and began to ask him some questions. I thought I’d start with his guitar. “So tell me, where did you get the guitar?”

He looked at the thing and smiled. “Well, I got this at a music club that I joined. They were about to throw it away but I just couldn’t let them do that.”

“I see. So its a old antique?”

“I don’t know, but I just couldn’t let a good guitar like this to go away.” He takes a deep breath. “It’s pretty much how I keep myself in perfection.”

The way he said that... it sounded like he was almost in pain. I wondered if it had to do with his relationship with Sunset, as frequently as he talked about it. After all, anybody would be in pain after hanging out with her.

“Tell me something Derpy...” He turned to look at me. “Do you ever feel pushed by your family to keep the love they give you?”

“No not really. My parents are very supportive of whatever I do. It’s why I’m raising a little child on my own.” I looked at Flash and saw he was shocked to hear that. “She’s adopted.”

He rolled his eyes in disbelief. “I see. Well that is nice as you seem to be able to let her have choices.”

I was starting to notice something in his choice of words. I wished I could ask him but I didn’t think he’d want to talk about it. Maybe I could I ask him this: “So tell me, what did you see in Sunset that made you want to go out with her?”

It seemed to be a bit heavier of a question for him than I anticipated. He looked down at his feet, looking melancholy. “That’s something personal, I don’t want to talk about it...” He puts his guitar back on his case. “I should be going now. It was nice speaking with you though.” He leaves the area, giving me a genuine smile.

I seemed to have learned so much about him… and so little. His relationship to Sunset, some kind of pressure from his family, I honestly hadn’t suspected that level of depth from him. Well, maybe I could find out more when he decided to talk to me again. After that, I headed back to my house. I grab a snack out of the fridge and saw that it was only 3 pm. Since I had some time left, I figured I might as well see if I could find the Doctor this time. I wonder if he is as the shop at sugarcube corner? After all he has got to be hungry. Once I got that there, he was no where to be found. This was starting to get annoying.

“Oh, hey there!” I heard a voice coming from behind me and saw that it was Berry Punch.

“Hello.” I waved at her.

“Say, since you’re here, want to have a drink with me?” She holds out a glass of juice.

I’d wanted to find the Doctor, but I couldn’t just refuse. Besides, I did want to hang out with her since the last time we’d met.

I sat next to her at the table she was sitting at. She had a juicer in front of her and a whole bunch of fruits, ranging from berries, oranges, grapes, star fruit, and so on.

“So, I see that you are making some juice.” Wow, Derpy, what an insightful observation!

“Yeah. I’m surprised that there were many fruits here. I figured I might as well use them for trying new flavor combinations.” She puts in kiwis with a mixture of strawberries and grapes. She pushes the button and the fruits mix together. Once its done she pours it in two glasses. She grabs one and offers it to me.

“Sure!” Her drinks really were the best. I remembered that even when we were kids, she made a delicious drink out of berries from near canterlot elementary. I took a sip of it and instantly I was lost in delicious juice heaven.

“I see that your taste never changes.” She smiled.

“Are you kidding me? Your juices are the best drinks in the world.” I continued to drink until it was half empty.

“Well I’m glad that you still have that personality of yours even in this situation we wound up in.” Her smile turned upside down.

“Hey, don’t feel bad! After all, we’re doing well here so far.” I tried to raise her spirits up but it seemed that there was more on her soul than I expected.

She looked up at me. “I’m sorry. Its just that the more I stay here, the more I think about my mother and how she’s holding up without me.”

I remembered immediately. Her mother was always a really strong woman, and she’s where Berry got her juice making skill from. However, a few years ago she got very sick and became bedridden. Now I could definitely see why Berry would want to get back home soon.

“Hey, don’t get so down! Besides I know that we will get out of here.” I put my hand on her shoulder. She looked at me and smiled.

“Thanks Derpy. You seem to always know how to cheer people up.” She wiped a tear from her eye. “My mom may be sick, but I know she’s strong.”

“I know that she’s very proud for you.”.

“Thank you. I’m proud to be your friend as well.” She holds another glass. “Want some more?”

Throughout my life, I had only made two friends. I was an outcast just because of my eyes, but those two saw through that and were able to become people that I could rely on. I knew that friendship will alway triumph no matter what. After drinking a lot of different flavored juices with Berry, I went back to my house. Once there I checked the time: 9:30 pm. It was almost closing time and the bear hadn’t popped up or anything. I felt a huge wave of relief wash over me, but as soon as it reached its peak, the monitors begin to turn on and show Monokuma.

“Attention Citizens. Meet me at City Hall as quickly as you can. I’ve got a special surprise for you.” The screen went black… just like my mood.

I thought he’d completely forgotten about it, but I probably raised my hopes too much. Nervously, but hopefully, I left my house. To my surprise, the Doctor was just outside.

“Hey Derpy,” he said in a worried tone. I figured he was just as nervous as me. I was about to ask him something, but he started walking before I could get the chance.

“Let’s go, shall we?” He led me out, walking as quickly as possible. I decided to  just ask him about it when I got some time alone with him. Once we got to City Hall, everybody was there, as expected.

“I knew you two would be the last ones to be here,” Diamond Tiara said, starting to get annoyed.

“So, are you guys nervous on what he is gonna do?” Sweetie Belle asked the group fearfully.

“Oh, please!” Gilda raised a fist. “I can take anything that piece of shit could throw at me.”

“Hey, I’m not a piece of shit!” Out of nowhere, Monokuma appear on stage. “Seriously, you don’t show any respect to your loving mayor!”

“Last time I checked, teddy bears like you are supposed to be cute and cuddly. NOT insane and forcing us to kill each other!” Octavia stated.

“Hmph. Well it doesn't matter, as I got the motive for all of you guys!” Once he said that, everybody grew even more nervous. He turned around and pulled out a bag. “Here is your motive everybody! Hope you can handle it!” He threw the bag on the ground, and tons of little photographs fell out. Each of them had one of our names. I picked up the photo that had my name it. When I looked at it, I nearly dropped it in horror.

“What… is this!?” The photo showed Dinky behind a dark alley in a cardboard box. I didn't know what to think other than how much I really needed to get to her. At the bottom of the photo it said “You want to know if you daughter is ok? Murder someone to find out.” I couldn't accept that this photo was real. It seemed that I wasn’t the only one who didn’t like what they were seeing.

“What is this?” Bon Bon asked.

“This has to be a joke right!?” All the confidence was gone from Photo Finish’s voice’.

“Uppupupu.” Monokuma laughed at our reactions. “Whether you think its true or not is up to you. But if you want to hear my advice, I say take it as the real deal.” He turned his back on us. “Well, see ya later.” He disappeared.

Every last one of us was chilled to the bone. Even after all we’d seen, this was beyond our worst imaginations.

“THERE IS NO WAY THIS IS REAL!” Tiara shouted.

“No,” Gilda said quietly. “No way in hell is this real!”

“Yeah...I think its all false.” Photo Finish tried to lie to herself.

“People, don’t let this fool you!” The Doctor shouted. “These are nothing but tricks! Can’t you see what he’s doing!?”

Everybody wanted to believe him, including myself, but I just couldn't. What I’d seen looked so real, so not fake in any way... I had to get out as quickly as possible! Still, I didn’t want to kill someone either.

I looked among my fellow students and noticed that Berry Punch looked worse than anyone else.

“Um, Berry, are you ok?” I put my hand on her shoulder. “You look really bad. Everything all right?”

She pushed my hand away and just walked off. That worried me a bit. What did she see on her photo? But whatever it was, it must have somehow hit her worse than mine did.

The rest of us just stood there, unable to move as we wondered what we could do now...

Mayor MonoKuma's TV address: Day 2

Monokuma heads up on stage and gives his speech.

“Well it seems that I have given quite the twist to my little game.”

“Now everything is set. I know that these students aren't as strong as they act.”

“Young people always have goals and dreams to complete. They’ll do anything to get there.”

“Sometimes the choices that you make end up hurting others.”

“How much damage can you do? Well let’s say that it could lead to a new way of life for others.”

“The afterlife that is. Uppupupupu.”

Chapter 1, The new Murderous life (Ab)Normal days: Day 3

I couldn't get much sleep the night after the motive that Mono bear gave us. I was so restless that I even ended up waking up about an hour early. I just couldn't stop thinking about the photo that I got from him. That picture... Seeing her in that situation... I wanted to say it wasn't real but I just couldn't convince myself. I tried to forget about it but… HOW COULD I JUST FORGET? My daughter was possibly in horrible danger and I was stuck there, forced against my will to live there until I murdered someone. Once the clock hit 7 am, the monitor turned on and Mono bear appeared as usual.

“Alright everybody, it’s time to rise and shine as you have a big day. Now go and live life and hope you avoid any accidents.” It seemed that he was enjoying the paranoia he caused. I really hated that bear. After eating my breakfast, I headed to the school Cafeteria, where and the atmosphere was a lot more heavy than before. Everybody seemed to be in a horrible mood.

Snails took a deep breath. “Oh Man.”

Sweetie Belle began to cry. “I don’t want to stay here anymore.”

“Hey hey!” Snails tried to calm her down. “Don’t worry so much. I mean that bear most likely faked those photos, right?”

“Please!” Scootaloo shouted. “Like I’d ever take them as the real thing.”

It looked like a few people weren’t as bad off as I’d initially assumed. That was good, at least.

“Yeah, besides, after everything else, I wouldn’t be surprised if he could make a few fake photos.” Applebloom sounded very calm compared to the rest of us.

“Is there something wrong with your brain?” Diamond Tiara asked in anger.

“Yeah!” Silver spoon shouted. “Aren’t you worried?”

“Of course not!” Apple Bloom seemed almost gleeful. “The Apple family always has each others’ backs.” She puts her hands on her hips. “When you mess with one of us, you mess with all of us, just me disappearing could be chalked up to something at the school, but if my sister, brother, and granny all vanished too, my aunts, uncles, and cousins would turn the whole country upside down looking for us and whoever’s responsible.”

Wow, the determination this kid had! It must be a trait that runs in the family.

“Besides, I know that Apple Bloom here would never let Monokuma get to her.” Scootaloo smiled. “She’s stronger than you think.”

“I wish I could be like you right now.” Bon Bon looked down at herself with a sad look on her face.

“Trixie is just as sad as you are.” She pulls her hat down over her eyes. “Trixie wishes that she could say this is a magic trick of some kind.”

As I shook my head and tried to push myself out of depression, I noticed that someone was missing, someone who I always expected to be here.

“Hey where is Berry Punch?” I asked. from the looks on everyone’s faces, no one knew.

“Sorry to say, but she is not here.” I turned around and saw Sunset walking up to me slowly. “She hasn’t been herself since she saw her photo.” She giggled. “Wow talk about a weak person.”

I got angry and shot back. “HEY! You can’t talk about my friend like that!”

She just laughed. “Really, you are the most pathetic of all. Can’t you see that everybody can’t let go of this situation. I can see why the bear call this fun.”

“Fun!?” the Doctor cut in, looking furious. “You think this is all a game to you?”

“Well, that is how the bear put it.” She smirked. “When you’re in a competition, what is the first thing that comes to mind?” She paused for a moment. “You want to win. That is my goal here. I’m not gonna be the princess that expect a knight and shining armor to rescue me! ” She laugh a little. “I mean who thought that I was that kind of person anyway!?”

“I kind of thought that.” Vinyl raised her hand.

“Well this princess here will triumph in this game. I will be the last one standing and don’t you forget it!” She leaves the Cafeteria once she finished what she had to say.

“I’m sorry about that.” The Doctor looked very worn out.

I put my hand on his shoulder and smiled. “Hey, its ok Doc. Besides, I know how you feel and we can both agree that Sunset is a brat.” He snickered a little.

“But you know she has a point.” Silver Spoon said, adjusting her glasses. “No matter how you look at it, we’re in a game.”

Diamond Tiara was shocked at what she said. “Um… are you ok Silver Spoon?”

“Not only that, but not everyone here is that confident that those pictures were fake.” Lyra looks nervous. “I bet at this very moment, someone is at least thinking on how they might kill someone.”

Everybody started to look at each other. I started to wish for something to take our minds off this.

“Hey, I think I got something that could take our minds off this!” Vinyl Scratch effortlessly commanded everyone’s attention. “How about we have a party?”

“A party? Really Vinyl?” Octavia looked annoyed.

“Hey, I think we need it after what happened last night.” Vinyl insisted.

“You know, that is not such a bad idea,” Photo Finish agreed.

“I’m all go for a party.” Gilda sounded happy. “After everything that’s happened I need to lay loose.”

“I’m game.” Flash said. “Something to keep myself calm after seeing those photos would be nice.”

“YA!” Both Snips and Snails shouted.

“Hey! That is my line” Snowflake isn’t kind to those who takes his catchphrase which soon followed with him shouting his line. “YEAH!”

“Ok then, it’s settled!” Vinyl shouted with excitement. “But where should we have it?”

“I! Photo Finish, suggest using the area around the boutique.”

“Brilliant!” Vinyl clapped her hands together. “Now I’m gonna need at least 10 people to help me set up. Any takers?”

The TMC, Photo Finish, Bon Bon, Snowflake, Snips, Snails, and Trixie all volunteered to help.

“Alright, you guys will do nicely...” Vinyl pulled Octavia in close. “And Octy makes ten!”

“Please Vinyl don’t make do this… and don’t call me Octy.” Octavia rolled her eyes.

“Oh come on, this will be fun for all of us,” Vinyl said. With a little more effort, Octavia conceded. “Alright everybody, let’s get this started and hope we can get this done before tonight!”

I couldn’t help but smile. That was the kind of thing that could get us through this! However, I realized that I had forgotten one person. Berry was still missing, probably at her house. I quickly left the cafeteria and headed to her place. Once there, I tried to open the door, but it was locked.

“Dammit!” I banged on the door hoping for a response, but didn’t get an answer. “Berry, I know you’re in there. Please come out and talk to me!” I waited for a while but still nothing. “Berry, I want you to listen to me. No matter what happens, friends always stick together. Please just let me help you!” I stood there hoping that she would open the door, but she refused to talk.

I felt something on my shoulder and turned to see the Doctor next to me. “Come on Derpy, let her deal with this on her own. I think it might be for the best.” The Doctor left and I started to follow, but at the last second I went back to tell her one more thing.

“Berry, we’re having a party tonight at the boutique, so please be there. I know you’re worried, but I want to spend time with my best friend.” I went home with the Doctor. As soon as I got to my house, the Doctor went on his search around the area.

When I looked at the clock, I saw that it was 10 am. I figured since it would be a while before the party started I should talk to some of the people I hadn’t gotten to know yet. The first place I went was to the cloud house Photo Finish had shown us a picture of. Once I got there, I couldn’t help but gawk at it. I knew there were weird things here, but it was even more beautiful and mysterious in person. Meanwhile, I saw Silver Spoon nearby checking out the house as well.

“I wonder if I can make a profit out of this?” Silver Spoon ask to himself.

“Hey there, Silver Spoon.” I waved at her.

“Oh! Hey there, Derpy. Tell me, how much would you pay to live in a house made of clouds?” It really struck me hard that just a few days ago I would have looked at her like she was crazy if she asked me that. Now though, I wouldn’t be surprised at anything...

“Say you want to hang out for a bit?” I ask her.

“Well I guess, but not here. I suggest we head to the spa.”

We both went back to town and entered the spa. We changed into bathrobes and tried out the sauna. As the steam surrounded us, I felt that despite everything else, I could just lay back and relax a bit.

“This steam really is something. It feels a lot better compared to spa I have back home.” She laid on her back, looking relaxed.

I realized that this would probably be the only time for a good while that I’d be able to talk to her in private. “Hey, can I ask you something?” I asked “How does a civil person like you end up following a brat like Tiara? ... Please don’t tell her I said that!”

She acknowledged me, but seemed to relax even more. “I don’t have much to say about it right now, but let’s just say we have a connection with each other.”

“Connection?” I was bit a confused there.

“Well, you know that saying that opposites attract? It’s sorta something like that.” She smiled. “I guess that no matter how different we are, we’re just compatible.”

“I see. You must be like a saint to handle her bitterness.” I laughed a little but I noticed that she seemed to take offence to it. “Sorry about that.”

“You know, I hate it when society can’t see how a person is deep inside.” She takes a deep breath. “Sometimes makes it hard for the both of us.”

I started to see that there may have been more to her than meets the eye. Maybe there was something about Diamond Tiara that made Silver Spoon feel similar to her. “I’m sorry for what I said there.”

She smiled. “Oh. that’s alright. I’ve already seen that you’re pretty different from most other people. Not quite so judgemental.” She stood up and headed to the door of the Sauna. “Its nice talking to you, but it’s getting too hot for me. I hope we can do this again sometime.”

As she exit out, It got me thinking what the rich life is? So far as I could tell it seems something to not be proud. I mean you can be a spoil brat and think everybody is below you but today I see a fine example of being mature about it.

A little while later, I got tired of the spa as well, so I changed back into my clothes and went back home for a bit. I checked the time and it was about 1 PM. There was still time for me to check out another location before the party started. I headed to the town train station that Bon Bon found at the other end of town.

Once I got there, I saw a weird looking train stationed there. The colors and design were like nothing I’d ever seen, though after Monoguards and cloud houses, a strange train was relatively mild. I took a look inside and it seemed completely normal for the most part. The seats were the only thing that was weird. Its flat with a wavy winding glass in the middle. I had to wonder why just that was different... I went through every part of the train until I reached the engine room, where I found Lyra. I suppose she wanted to check this place out too.

“Oh, hey there, Derpy. You’re just the person I was hoping to see.” Her happiness was welcome, but her overeagerness was honestly a little creepy.

“Oh really? Great.” I kind of felt uncomfortable here but I figured that I should try to be friendly with her. Besides, I’d probably get used to her strangeness once I got to know her. “So you want to hang out?”

“Sure!” She said quickly, as if she’d been hoing for me to ask.“Let’s go sit down over there.” She grabs my hand and takes me to one of the seats.

“So tell me Derpy, have you ever had an interest in zoology?” I wondered what made her think that.

“Um, no, not really to be honest, though I heard you have interest in it.”

“Well duh!” she said. “I’ve been interested ever since I was a little.”

“Hm… but if you’re that into it, why are you the Super High School Level Harpist and not a zoologist?”

She looks away, looking a little sad. “Let’s just say that my parents didn’t want me to waste my talent...”

“Talent...You mean your musical talent with the harp?” How could she not be happy with that? Didn’t she have a contract with a producer because of it?

“Yes, I really didn’t want that to be my main focus.” She rested her head in her hands. “It was supposed to be just a little distraction. but it seems fate had other things in mind for me.”

I kinda wonder if fate could be blamed for us being here. “I see. Well sometime we might not get what we want in life, but we can always make the best of what we have.”

When I said that, it seemed to make her a bit angry. “I just hate it when people don’t appreciate my choices.” She took a deep breath to calm herself down. “Tell me Derpy, you support my right to make my own decisions in life, right?”

“Well of course you should do what you want in your life. I’d support whatever you wanted to do.”

She smiled. “Thanks Derpy.”

I sensed the conversation starting to wind down, but there was one other thing I wanted to know. “Wait, what kind of zoology do you want to do again? I know I heard it, but it sort of slipped my mind.”

“I want to focus on equines. You know, horses and ponies.”

“I see, so you like horses, I presume?”

She gave a little smile. “Yeah, you could say that.”

After talking with her a little longer I headed back to my house. Once there I checked the time and it was about 5 pm. Suddenly a loud knocking came at my door. When I opened it, I saw the Doctor standing there.

“Oh, Doc!” I blushed. “What are you doing here?”

“I just thought I’d come let you know that the party is set up and starting, and perhaps take you there myself.” He ran a hand through his hair, blushing. “Well, shall we get going?”

As soon as he offered, I quickly took hold of his arm. “Sure!” With that, I walk with him to the party. Once I got to the Boutique, it was clear that the place was ready for action. They’d set up a stage in the front yard along with tables, balloons, and a huge banner.

Welcome, One And All, to the Annual Fashion Show

I never thought it would be this big. Come to think of it, where did they get a stage like that? I was soon greeted by Photo Finish.

“Welcome you two to my first fashion show!” She shouted with excitement. “Please make yourself welcome.”

The party seems to be lively as expected. “Well, I see that everybody is having fun here. But where did you get the stage?”

“I! Photo Finish,  found a button that summons this stage in the front yard of the boutique.” Even she seemed amazed by it. “This boutique has pretty much everything for me.”

The smile she wore infected me too, and several others, it seemed. It looked like that bear wouldn't be getting us to kill each other any time soon!

“You two must tired and hungry. Why don’t you go and take a seat?.” She showed us an entire rows of tables that we could pick from.

Me and the Doctor head to the table that has bowl of fruit on it. As I sat down, I took a look around to see if Berry was here. I was disappointed that she wasn’t.

“You're still worried about your friend, aren't you?” The Doctor noticed my sudden change in mood.

“Yeah. I think I should go and check up on her. I’ll be right back.” I got up and quickly headed out, but as soon as I did, to my surprise I saw her standing just at the entrance of the party. “Berry!” I said happily.

“Yeah, I’m here,” she smiled. “Well, I couldn’t just stay at home and moan and feel sad all day.”

I shed a few tears of joy. “I’m glad to see you happy.” I never like to see my friends in pain.

“Hey, don’t cry!” She wiped off the tears of my face. “Let’s enjoy the party as much as we we can alright?”

I led her to sit down with the Doctor. It soon started to be the most fun I’ve had in a while. All the students were having the time of their lives. Friends talked like there was no tomorrow and ate like they’d never eaten before. Things started to get happier, and it seemed that people had completely forgotten what happened yesterday.

As I was talk with Berry and the Doctor, I noticed Photo Finish heading in our direction, waving at us.

“Hey, Photo Finish! What’s up?” I asked.

“I need you and Berry to come with me asap!” She grabs my arm and begins dragging me.

“Hey wait...WAHH”

“Oh, I guess I should go as well.” Berry soon followed.

Photo Finish dragged me all the way inside the boutique, and it appeared that I wasn’t not the only there.

“What is going on?” Berry asked the same question that I was thinking. The other people there were Trixie, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, and the Talent Mark Crusaders.

“Ok, now that we are here, I! Photo Finish will fill in the details. You see, I set up a Fashion show and I have chosen all of you to be in it.”

“Oh, this should be fun!” Diamond Tiara seemed genuinely excited.

“Really?” It seemed Scoots doesn't want in. “I don’t want to go in front of a crowd in a dress.”

“Looks like someone is afraid losing, am I right?” Silver Spoon gave a condescending glare. “Afraid that everyone else will end up looking better than you?”

“What did you just say?” Scootaloo snapped.

“Well that’s what it sounds like. Not that I’d expect any different from someone like you.” Diamond Tiara smirked at her.

“ALL RIGHT, YOU'RE ON!” She shouted with determination.

“Well none of you will hold a candle to the great and powerful Trixie!” Trixie raised her hands, her cape fluttering triumphantly in a breeze that seemingly came from nowhere.

“Oh, this sounds fun!” Berry jumped with excitement. “Derpy, let’s do this!”

My face quickly got pale. “Oh no!” I tried to wave her off. “I’m a little too nervous.” I couldn’t go out there in front of a crowd. Especially since a certain someone was out there.

“Oh come on, Derpy! We haven't done anything really fun together. Besides, don’t you want impress that boy that you like?” She smiled, giving me a dastardly look.

It seemed that she won’t let it go, so I figured I had no choice. “Alright, fine. I’ll do it.”

“Good!” She turned to Photo Finish. “Alright, where are the dresses!?” she asked with excitement.

“Follow me upstairs, I've got each of your outfits ready.” Photo Finish said.

Upstairs, we saw the dresses laid out on the bed. She pointed out which ones were meant for each of us. I was still a bit nervous about it, but I was willing to do it for Berry’s sake.

I put on the dress, which was light blue dress with gold trim and gold shoes and gloves. I also put on the curve shades which are a little uncomfortable. Berry’s was a purple dress with a strawberry and fruit badge and dark purple boots. She seemed to like the color a lot.

A few minutes later, we were all ready. Photo Finish led us behind the stage and begin to talk to the others through a microphone.

“Ladies and Gentlemen, I! Photo Finish announce that the fashion show will now start!”

Everybody began to cheer. My stage fright soon reached nearly uncontrollable levels. I took a deep breath and managed to calm myself down for a bit. I just had to tell myself I could do this!

“Alright, everybody enjoy the show.” Photo Finish got off stage and began to start up the camera’s she’d set up.

Vinyl begins to drop the tunes.

Trixie came in first, accompanied by several special effects that she seemed to have added on her own at some point. Fire works pop up behind creating some neat looking effects. She wore a blue and white tuxedo with a light blue top hat. She walked up the stage and began to pose in front of the crowd.

“Come one, come all to see the great and powerful Trixie now in a cool new style!” she said. The crowd begin to cheer for the show she put on, especially snails. But one isn't easy to please.

“BOOOOO, YOU SUCK!” Gilda shouted.

She got angry. “You just don’t appreciate what the great and powerful Trixie is made off!”

“Yeah right! I bet people find you annoying!” Gilda continued to mock her as she headed off stage.

Next up was Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon who were wearing yellow dresses with pink trim and bows on the chests.

“Come on, let’s hear some cheers!” Silver Spoon begin waving at the audience.

“Aren't we both the prettiest girls you've ever seen?” Tiara gloated.

They both did some kind of weird secret handshake: bumping their fists together one at a time before bumping their bottoms together chanting “Bump, bump, sugar lump rump!” They ended with a chuckle as they walked back offstage, giving the TMC their best ‘top that’ look.

Speaking of the TMC, they were up next. Applebloom was wearing a cowgirl get up. It was everything that you’d expect, with a hat, boots, and a belt buckle to go with it. Sweetie Belle was wearing a pure white dress with a sunflower hat. Finally, Scootaloo wore a school uniform type outfit with a blue skirt, white shirt, yellow ascot, tube socks, and brown shoes.

“This is fun!” Applebloom shouted with joy.

Sweetie Belle couldn't help but smile. “Are you enjoying this well, Scootaloo!?” she asked.

It seemed she was the only one who didn't it. “This is so embarrassing.” Scootaloo blushed and tried to hide behind the other two.

“Oh come one Scootaloo, don’t you feel pretty?” Sweetie Belle asked.

Scootaloo turns around with an angry look. “I don’t wear dresses and you are despicable for making me wear this!” Her face shows how grumpy she is.

“Oh come on Scoots, don’t be that way. After all you do look good in that school uniform.” Applebloom tried to lighten her mood.

Scootaloo took a deep breath. “I’m so glad Rainbow Dash isn't here to see this right now.”

The crowd began to cheer for the Crusaders, some more than was reasonable.

“WOO HOO! GO SWEETIE BELLE!” Snails shouted as he clapped even harder than he had for Trixie.

Snips couldn't help but be annoyed by this. “Yeah that’s really subtle there, Snails.” He rolled his eyes.

The three head backstage. Now it was Berry Punch’s turn. But when I looked around, she wasn't there. “Hey, has anybody seen where Berry went?” I asked, concerned again.

“Trixie has saw her go back into the boutique” Trixie answered.

“Oh ok.” I quickly headed inside to try and find her. When she wasn't on the first floor, I decided to check upstairs. “Berry, are you up here… HUH?” Upstairs, the room was a mess, like there was a struggle. The pony shaped mannequins were knocked over, clothes and tailoring equipment were strewn about, and the mirror was shattered.

“What happened here?” I asked myself. As I looked around, I noticed an open window to my left. I took a look through it and didn’t see anything other than some garbage cans spilled on the ground. But what could have happened to Berry? Her gone, and the room like this, it didn't bode well. I ran out of the boutique as fast as possible.

“Derpy where are you going!” the Doctor called after me as he catches up. “What is going on? Something on your mind.”

I quickly inform the details for him. “Doctor something is wrong. Berry! She was in trouble!”

I was sporadic with my word but the Doctor caught on on what I’m saying. “Ok! I’ll go tell the others about this alright.”

“Sure.” I quickly left the party.

I went to her house, assuming she would have gone there first in an emergency. When I tried the door, to my surprise it was already open. When I looked inside, it was trashed. I had no idea what to do! Where could she have gone? As I turned around and ran, I didn't notice that someone was watching me passing by.

I went back to the boutique as quickly as I could, making a beeline for the Doctor when I saw him. “Doctor!” I shouted, “Berry Punch is gone and I’m worried she-” Before I could finish my sentence, he held up his hand to stop me.

“Derpy,” he said grimly, “I’m….I’m sorry”

I didn't like the tone in his voice when he said that, but I followed him, wondering what he was going to show me. We walked until we saw the bridge over the river that was on the way to the Boutique. We turned right and kept going from there until we found Sweetie Belle, who was crying..

“Sweetie Belle, would you mind getting the others here. I think they need to see this as well.” The Doctor asked politely.

Sweetie Belle didn't say a word but nodded and went to get the others.

“Derpy… take a look.” He pointed at something in the river just of my sight. The river was only few inches deep that you’ll be able to see the bottom floor. When I took a closer look, I couldn't believe on what I saw.

Berry Punch was face down in the river, blood pooling around her and a knife at her side.

I couldn't look away. All I could do was scream in terror.

Mayor MonoKuma's TV address: Day 1

Mono bear gets up on stage as an excited audience takes pictures and claps. The camera crew comes and sets up the broadcast to all stations. He stood at the podium and began his announcement.

“Well hello there, everybody viewing from your homes. This is your mayor speaking with a special announcement."

“What you are seeing right now is how citizens try to get used to a new environment."

“They think they can live peacefully. They think they can able to pull through.”

“But you know what is really gonna happen. Who is going to be the culprit? Who is going to be the victim? We will have to wait see."

“These kids are supposed to be the symbol of hope to the world. But we’ll see if they can hold to that. Does anybody wanna bet on who caves first? Come on, everybody! I got 10:1 odds on the grey chick, who’s feeling’ lucky?”

Mayor MonoKuma's TV address: Day 3

Monokuma heads on stage and prepares his speech.

“Well, it seems that the killing has finally started.”

“I almost thought it would never happen, but these people are all talk. They really aren’t all that resolute on the inside.”

“People like to say that things will always get better, but they don’t really mean it.”

“They just say that to trick themselves so they’re confident enough to face the world.”

“Kids may not know this but the world is full of despair.”

“Why do you think that kid’s media such as cartoons hide it by sugar coating the problems they face?”

“These citizens know that despair exists in their lives, but just how deep does that despair go?”

“Well, they’re about to find out with our main event: The Town Court! Uppupupupupu, this is gonna be fun!”
