Ponganronpa: Harmonious Killings

Somehow Dusty, Vinyl, and I made it all night and nobody died. Before anybody got up, we each got food one at a time and all went back down. As many creatures rose Vinyl stated

"We'll keep up the night guard act, but I'll be sleeping during the day. Whether Dusty and Trixie want to is up to them.
Everyone looked at Dusty who smiled and immediately collapsed and fell asleep.

"I think I'll get some sleep too... Gilda if you can just act as defense of sorts..."

"Whatever... It'll give me something to do I guess."

Protag Switch- - - - - Gilda
Honestly, with Corri gone, I don't have much to live for but seeing as Trixie caught his killer and his killer's killer I suppose.
I had nothing to do but keep an eagle's eye... er- Griffon's eye on everyone. I eyed Thorax slowly as he walked over and grabbed chocolate milk, an oat burger, and a knife.

"I'm sorry Cross, but I'm going to protect myself if it comes down to it." Cross scoffed and I nodded at Thorax. As much as I owe Trixie, not having something for self-defense is really fucking stupid. Cross seriously can't be mad at them for that...

BING BONG BONG BING
We all looked at the three sleeping, they didn't budge an inch before Monodence chuckled.

"Fuhuhuhuhuhu~ they don't need to be up for this anyways. I'm sure someone will tell them that if you murder someone right here right now within the next half hour - you get away scot-free. I heard this and went up to the weapons and grabbed a crossbow and I walked back.

"If any of you even grab your weapon, you fucking die," I said this as coldly and bluntly as possible.
Quibble, like the coward they are, moved his hooves away from his weapon but Twilight was side eyeing me and started to lift her gun with her magic. I put a bolt in my crossbow and fired it off near her, It broke the gun in half and I loaded another one and aimed at her.

"Next thing gone is your horn, Twilight Sparkler." She groaned, got up to get another gun, and laid down on her sleeping bag.

Eventually, Evening came, Trixie was just getting up and going over and waking up Vinyl and Dusty to eat before their nightguard shift. I kept my crossbow close to me as everyone got dinner. After we all ate, Monodence made the next motive announcement.

"You kill someone; no trial. You get away with it and go free."

"One move and that motive's mine." I coldly say this while loading my crossbow.
Twilight put down her gun and grumbled as she went to sleep, I was also up on night guard duty. I was a little tired but it's fine.

Another morning comes. Trixie, Vinyl, and Dusty collapse back into bed, I get a bagel for breakfast and keep my griffon's eye on everyone... I let out a yawn but that doesn't deter me because If I'm not up to protect every single one here, someone will die. I won't let Monodence win... I can not let that abomination win. This is for Corri.

"Good morning and Happy Slaughters~!" Monodence announced into a microphone on a stage in the gym.
I tiredly glanced at her... them... it... Who fuckin' cares? Everyone else seemed more attentive, I made sure nobody interrupted Monodence.

"Your next motive is simple. You get to revive someone and they get to leave; you however remain here."
Everyone looked at me, I did the watching-you claw gesture and held my crossbow up.

"Gilda" Thorax stuttered out.

"What..." I coldly say.

"Uh- y-yn'know if you're feeling tired Gilda I could take over for ya... Cross is also willing."

"No thanks. I got thi-"
I immediately see what Twilight is doing and fire a bolt at her and it just grazes her as she was about to stab Discord in the neck while he naps with a knife.

"What the fuck Twilight?!"

"He's been nothing but chaotic this whole time, nobody would even miss him!"

"I would!" Derpy retaliated. "He's been nothing but honest about him being chaotic this whole time, and to me, he's frankly been way nicer than you!"

"Get her ass, Derpy!" Cross cheered.

"Not like it would've worked anyway, because if I wanted to kill any of you... I would've done so already."
Discord laughed maniacally until Twilight cowered away. Nighttime fell, and everyone went to bed. Aside from Vinyl, Dusty, and Trixie who awoke.

"Trixie, Twilight attempted a murder on Discord around 3 pm. The next motive is on the screen above the podium like usual, I will remain diligent."

"Holy fuck you look awful," Dusty said much to both Vinyl and Trixie bonking her on the head.

"You do look rather tired though, Gilda..." Vinyl nodded.

"Trixie agrees, we're awake at night and you shouldn't burn yourself out!"
I'm tired... I'm tired... I'm tired... I'm tired... I'm tired... I'm tired... I'm tired... I'm tired... I'm tired... I'm tired... I'm tired... I'm not okay but... I have to keep going on.

"I'm fine, Griffons keep hours like this all the time..."
No, we do not...

"If yah say so Gilda..." Dusty said before all three went back to their positions.
I kept my eyes on everyone.... If i fall asleep someone will die... If... I fall asleep, I'm just as guilty. . .

Protag Switch - - - >

Eventually, morning came and we awoke to a horrible sight. Lying out cold in front of us was the body of Gilda Gruff the Ultimate Baker... I felt my head get bonked

"Trixie you idiot, stop looking at her like she's dead. she's ASLEEP." Cross sighed

"Can you BLAME Trixie?" I retorted "Excuse Trixie for worrying; because that makes SENSE!" I was tired and went to sleep after a guard shift.

Protag Switch - - - > Cross Heart

I sighed as Trixie went back to her sleeping bag, as I stretched and went to get my breakfast... It became evident to some like Twilight and Quibble that Gilda was down for the count. I have an oath to uphold... To never harm another creature... But you'd be boiling in Tartarus if you thought I was gonna let anyone do anything. I'm not just a nurse. I'm a veteran of the short-lived 13-day Griffon and Earth Pony War. These foals thought was gonna let anybody harm someone? Quibble and Twilight were conversing, so I picked up my crossbow and just aimed it at them. I wasn't going to let them do anything. Eventually, Quibble noticed; and pointed it out to Twilight and they scuttled away from each other. Everyone ate, went back to their areas, and just sat there, clutching their weapon close. It felt like days had passed in just an hour. It felt like days. Like waiting for the anesthesia to kick in. Time slowly ticks down.

"Great Afternoon and Jolly Slaughters~!" Monodence chimed in

"Fuhuhuhuhhu~" Monodence neck cracked at a 90-degree angle, their grin almost stretching off their face in an anatomical horror.

"Hold it," I stated.

"Yeeeeeees~?" Monodence blinked rapidly, her neck position not even shifting but her eyes, despite behind voids were focused right at me.

"Yesterday the motive said you can revive someone... is that... true or is it bullshit?"

"It's true. Whether you believe me or not - we can revive one fallen comrade! victim or killer!"
Murmurs shook through the gym... I thought about everyone who's fallen.

Petunia Paleo... the Ultimate Paleontologist. She was so young and her life was horrifically taken away from her. A truly bright and bubbly persona - snuffed out in an instant.

Octavia Melody... the Ultimate Cellist and the pony who set this killing game in motion. She retained her memories of Vinyl and their relationship which Vinyl didn't retain. She was going to die with Vinyl or bring her out of the game.

Zecora Sahara... the Ultimate Herbalist. A zebra wise among her years and peers. Unwillingly wrote the note that led to her own meeting with death... yet seemed eerily content.

Snap Allgood... the Ultimate Survivalist. A father is terrified for their child's safety to the point where they would murder someone for it and frame another.

Spike Apple-Sparkle... the Ultimate Ambassador. A husband and best friend to Applejack. A truly kind soul who loved Applejack and truly wanted peace for all; shown by the opposite of himself being a bigoted violent rageaholic.

Sidigrourgous Smith... the Ultimate Blacksmith. Also known as Sid. A quiet and meek soul, a fellow veteran, and a truly benevolent soul. Also proved by how when he was the opposite he was a war-torn, bigoted, and violent individual.

Coriander Cumin... the ultimate Cook. A generous and kindhearted figure of the essence known as the warmth of cooking... If only we discovered your body first...

Sunny Delight... the Ultimate Radio Show Host. A lively and boisterous individual who fell for the motive quickly last case. Unfortunately for him, he was caught and murdered in self-defense.

Splash Refresh... the Ultimate Smoothie Maker. A feminine male unicorn who was an extrovert to extrovert. He caught Sunny slashing into Corriander and decided to take action.

Could... one of them be brought back?
