P - 6 : Welcoming Ceremony

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Woah, guys!  Look what I just found!"  The Ultimate Graffiti Artist, Fuyutake Ganko, gestured for us all to come closer.  She was holding a small tablet in her hand, where, presumably, the nasally voice had been coming from.

'Welcome, Student no. 23!  Your name is Fuyutake Ganko.  This is your own, personal E-Pad which will supply you with a floor plan, rules and regulations, and handy dandy tips from yoooour favourite cuddly, compassionate mascot, Monoko!'

A black and white cat with the same design as the one that was on stage was animated in the corner of the screen of the tablet, like some kind of weird tutorial.

'If this hasn't been explained to you already, you will be participating in a Killing Game. Here are the specific rules for that Killing Game.'

"Killing game?!"  Yuudai shouted.

"Shut up, it's still talking."  Fuyutake replied.

'Rule no. 1!  Nighttime is at 10'o clock sharp, so be sure to get into your little beds by that time, or, if you want to brave going out at night, be assured that some areas are completely off limits!  These areas include the Talent Rooms and Hall.  If you enter these areas, watch out!  If you do-'

The barrel of a machine gun suddenly popped up on screen, shooting loudly towards a small group of faceless characters.  I jumped.

'Rule no. 2!  Don't mess with the Monoko's or your surroundings.  That means no blowing us up or stabbing us in the chest!  That hurts!  Don't punch holes in walls or kick doors down either!  We don't have the budget to fix that.  If you do break one of these rules, watch out!  If you do-'

The same gun animation played.

'Rule no. 3!  Now we're getting into the fun stuff!  After a murder, you will be requested to participate in a class trial!  Note: you cannot refuse a request.  The class trial will find out the murderer, or the 'Blackened', as we call them, and they will be punished accordingly!  If you pick the wrong person, though-'

Gun animation.

'Rule no. 4!  There has to be a minimum of three people present for the body discovery announcement to be played! 
'Rule no. 5!  You must investigate the murder!  If you decide to hide in a corner from all your problems and not participate fully in the class trial because you have no evidence and didn't bother trying to find any because your wittle friend over there was murdered, well-'

Gun animation.

'Rule no. 6!  You must listen to everything I, Monoko, and my owner, who will remain nameless, says!  If we want you to dance, you dance!  If we want you to kill, you kill!  No exceptions, I'm afraid~!
'Rule no. 7!  A Motive will be given before every murder.  The most recent motive is: Unknown.  Past motives have been: Not Applicable.  After every murder, a new floor will be unlocked!  Floors you have unlocked are: Floor FourFloors yet to be unlocked are: Not Applicable. 
'Rule no. 8!  Have fun, kiddos!  Let the Killing Game begin!'

The animated bear, Monoko, I guess, blew itself up, leaving us with an image of Fuyutake's face next to her information.
I snuck a look.

"Oooh, a sagittarius!"  Seiichi leaned over the pad, "I'm a Leo!  This should be the start of a great friendship!"

"I don't think so."  Fuyutake pulled the pad away from him and switched it off, poking her tongue out.
