Ponganronpa: Harmonious Killings

Trixie and Applejack walked into this indoor garden type of room only to see a suave-looking beige pony with greased black hair, and...

"WHAT IN THE NAME OF LUNA IS THAT THING"
Way to be subtle Applejack...

"Ahhhh~ More ponies, perfect, Id teleport to you but it seems magic doesn't work here, and our wings have been downgraded..."

Trixie put her hoof to her face, how could she have forgotten her HORN. But it seems, the multi animaled creature was right... Her horn didn't even give a spark of magic. The business pony cut in.

"My apologies for the interruption, but I feel an introduction is in order. My name is Filthy Rich and I'm the Ultimate Business pony, but I'm anything but Filthy... So please just call me Rich, but since I've worked with the Apples for moons that was mostly for you."

"Nice to see you again, Mr. Rich, as you know I'm the ultimate Orchardist and Trixie here is the Ultimate Illusionist."

"Oh blah blah blah, emotions. Eyuuuchk, gag."

This guy is almost as insufferable as that damn Alicorn...

"You ponies listen and you listen well, my name is Discord and I'm the Ultimate Chaos."

"Hold on a cotton pickin' minute... Yer talent is just being... Chaotic?"

"I'd show you an example but unfortunatly it seems whoever brought us here didn't want us to escape, via magic or wings."
This worried Trixie, immensely.

"Wait - you mean that we were all going to attend this academy for Ultimates and then suddenly we wake up in this hotel in the middle of Luna knows where?"

"It seems to be the case... Kind of brings me some despair..."

"Anyways, thanks y'all for the introductions and what have you but were going to go explore some more."

The two wandered over a bit more which seemed to be a row of doors, on the left side, one on the right, each having their faces on them. In total, there was 10 on each side. Mares on the right, stallions on the left. Aside for Applejack and... some sort of dragon, who seem to share a room? They continued a bit and turned left. The right was blocked off but it was some kind of staircase? And near it was also a blocked-off elevator.

"Hey, Applejack, I wonder why that's blocked off."
"Beats me, she responded."

They entered the next room in the hall to the left. It seemed to be a laundry room, one glance at who was in there caused the farmpony to blush and look down. Trixie glanced, all that was in there was a purple and green quadruped dragon, pretty built and even taller than Applejack.

"HOwDY"

Applejack blushed and blurted it out, causing Trixie to snicker.

"The names Trixie Lulamoon, Ultimate Illusionist and this is"

"I know who this is, Applejack I'm so glad to see you're OK, don't fool this poor unicorn like that."

"Alright alright, fine, Trixie this is Spike, he's the Ultimate Ambassador and he's also my spouse."

"Ah nice to meet you Spi -"
hold up.
"WAIT YOU TWO ARE MARRIED?!"
"Long story, but I'm just glad yer okay."

They went in for a hug and nuzzled each other's necks.
"Er Trixie - I've already met most everycreature... you can continue ahead."

Trixie snorted and left the two alone. She went into the door across the hall on the right which appeared to be a dining hall of sorts. She saw a tail enter the kitchen and an annoyed grey earth pony with purple eyes and a black long straight mane and a less annoyed white unicorn with a blue spiky mane sitting at a table.

Trixie decided to introduce herself, and after such the unicorn pulled up their sunglasses revealing red eyes, and flashed a smile.

"The name's Vinyl "DJ PON3" Scratch, I'm the Ultimate DJ, but please just call me Vinyl."

"Octavia Melody. Ultimate Cellist."

"Cmon, lighten up, that griffon is probably just in a bad mood."

"Griffon?"
Octavia sighed and nodded at the kitchen door.

"They just came here and yelled at me for being in the way, when I wasn't, she walked into me!"

"Octavia, calm down..."

"You two know each other?"

"Well, only since we got here but, yeah."

"While it was nice meeting you, I better go introduce myself to that griffon, grumpy or not."

"Good luck..." The grey earth pony sighed and gave a faint smile. The white unicorn just nodded and tried to comfort her.

Trixie entered the kitchen only to hear a gruff argument ensuing. Inside she saw the aforementioned griffon starting to get angry at a hefty gold-colored unicorn with a small purple mane and unkempt purple shaved beard look. Both may as well had smoke coming out of their ears.

"I was here first..."

"Don't care, tubby, this is my kitchen now."

"And besides what about that blue unicorn behind you."

They both looked at me, neither really happy. Nonetheless, the unicorn introduced himself.

"My name is Corriander Cumin, and I'm the Ultimate Cook- OOF"

The Griffon rammed into him and he stumbled back a bit.

"The names Gilda Gruff and I'm the Ultimate Baker and say this is MY kitchen so both of you buzz off!" Both of us were quickly shoved out of the kitchen and dining area.

"Well, do you have a talent, Miss?"

"Oh right, Trixie's - er my talent is the Ultimate Illusionist, at least it was a pleasure to meet you, Sir."

"Please, call me Corriander, I was just being polite... I haven't met everypony yet, want to see if we can find some more?"

"Works for me."

They headed to the next room on the right side of the hallway, Trixie could still hear then in the laundry room and shuddered. When they entered they saw a healthcare office with one white earth pony with a pale pink mane and one... Zebra? The pink maned one took notice.

"Greetings, my name is Red- oops, sorry recently transitioned and keep deadnaming myself."

Finally, somepony that gets Trixie's pain!

"My name is Cross Heart, and I'm the Ultimate Nurse!"

"Lucia- er Trixie gets your pain"
Trixie winked which relaxed the pink maned pony a bit, then the zebra chimed in.

"My name is Zecora Sahara, I'm the Ultimate Herbalist, the one and only. It is a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Lulamoon, and Mr. Cumin"

Zecora gave a polite bow and left. Trixie and Corriander were a little stunned... neither of them had given Zecora their last names.

"Pleasure to meet you, Cross, the names Corriander, the Ultimate Cook."

"If I'm keeping count right... Then I need to meet five more male creatures..."

They headed across the hall and on the left and encountered a gym, where the five remaining creatures were. An orange earth pony with a headset, a brown earth pony with a purple mane, a lighter brown earth pony with a silver mane, A pale pink unicorn that was missing its horn., and a colorful bug-looking thing. Trixie and Corriander approached the unicorn first and Corriander piped up first.

"Are you alright sir?"
The unicorn blushed and nodded with a quiet response with an accent from Horcee. of
"Yeah... Don't worry, I've had it for a while... I was in a war... as the Ultimate Blacksmith... I made... the weapons... and without my sword... or cloak... I feel so vulnerable..."

It's clear whoever wanted us here was confident enough to bring a war veteran blacksmith here... and somehow got their weapon as well...

Corriander piped up and gave the unicorn a reassuring shoulder pat.

"Don't worry friend, we'll get through this together."

They headed over to the two chatting earth ponies. The purple-maned one took notice first and introduced himself.

"Good day, mate and lassie, the name is Snap Allgood and I'm the Ultimate Survivalist."

Trixie and Corriander introduced themselves and then the other earth pony, who was lighter brown chimed in.

"The name's Quibble Sky... I go by he/they and I'm the Ultimate Daring-Do Fan..."

"Daring Do?" Corriander cocked his head and Snap responded.

"Popular adventure book series, my kit, Scootaloo, loves them."

The other earth pony, with a headset, and now clearly a styled blue mane walked over and with a louder than needed voice, kind of like one from 60s radio, chimed in as well.

"Aha, yes! The one by A. K. Yearling! Y'nknow I recently interviewed her - or tried - but got the door slammed on me, how rude!"

No no, I can see why she did.

"Anyways, the name is Sunny Delight, and I'm the Ultimate Radio Host!"

Quibble and Trixie winced.

"If you don't mind," Quibble started "You're really loud and could you please quiet down a little...?

"Nope, I was born with this voice and have to suffer too, Ahahah!"

Something tells me that Sunny isn't happy with his voice.

"Oh... well, me and Trixie should introduce ourselves to Bugs over there..."

"Have fun~!" Sunny bellowed, perhaps a bit too loudly.

Corriander pulled me over to this colorful bug-looking pony. A lime green colored, purple-eyed, horned, bugged winged... It was strangely beautiful.

"Ohh, hi... I heard your names and talents from Twilight."

Eyuchk.

"The name is Thorax... I go by the pronouns of they/them and... I don't remember my Ultimate... or signing up for any kind of program..."

"That's quite strange"

Corriander replied, but before I could respond

Bing Bong Bong Bing.

"A school bell?" Corriander questioned.

For everycreature that isn't present in the gym, please report there immediately.

A little confused one by one everypony filed in. Spike chimed in first

"Wonder what could be so important?"

Trixie smirked, she could respond to this at least.

"What were you and Applejack busy doing laundry?"

Both Applejack and Spike blushed deeply and Discord let out a hearty laugh. Suddenly two known figures stood on the stage, except they looked different.

Even Twilight was confused...
"Luna... Cadence.... what are you two doing here?

Luna, now black as coal, except for her eyes, cutie mark, and mane which glowed white just nodded at an even different Cadence, who was now all white except for her eyes, cutie mark, and mane which all glowed black. Cadence piped up first

"My name is MonoDence and this is MonoLuna we would like to welcome you all to Equestria's very first Killing Game!"

Monoluna unenthusiastically blew a party horn releasing some confetti.

But nobody noticed that everyone was silent except for Twilight who was now pale, along with everyone else.

"A what?"
