Return, Retry, Restart...Continue? (Danganronpa V3 X Reader)

Chapter 23

"If you were really concerned about the group... then you would've known to kept it locked despite how we think about you!" Kaito shouted back.

You opened your mouth to speak, but Kokichi cut you off. "But... I'm the one who unlocked the door. Not (Y/N). I'm an Ultimate Supreme Leader, If (Y/N) was right I couldn't pass up the chance.... the chance to make the killing game more exciting."

A gasp was let out from everyone. Thanks to you, he didn't get to talk about the killing game before when he was talking to Gonta, but now... it's because of you that Kokichi got his chance to spring up the dreadful topic.

"Kokichi you no should say those kinda jokes!" Gonta shouted.

"That's not very reasonable though is it? I mean we are in a killing game still." Kokichi continued. "Anyway. Enough about the killing game. Our group still made one more discovery... righttt (Y/n)? 

You paused for a second, not comprehending what Kokichi was talking about. That's when it hit you that you still had the flashback light. You pulled the flashback light out. "Ah. Yeah we discovered this. Although I'm not too sure what it does." 

"I can answer that for you!" Monokuma announced. "It's a flashback light! It sheds light on your lost memories!" 

"Our...lost memories?" Ryoma asked. 

Shuichi looked apprehensive "Just with this light?"

"So it's your fault we don't remember what happened to us huh?" Kaito accused Monokuma. 

"I wonder how you stole our memories in the first place..." Kirumi muttered thoughtfully. 

Monokuma gave an evil grin. "Upupu...maybe if you use the flashback light you'll remember all of that! Well it's up to you guys! I'm outta here!"

And with that Monokuma left, leaving you and the 14 other student confused as to what to do. 

"So...what should we do?" Keebo asked. 

"What should we do? You mean... should we or should we not use the flashback light?" Tenko added on. "I refuse to use it! It reeks of fishiness!"

"Yeah... Gonta no can believe light brings memories back." 

A brief argument started about why we shouldn't use the flashback light, until Rantaro cut in. "I think we should use it." 

"Huh? What do you mean? Why?" You asked. 

"This is probably our only link to the outside world. These aren't normal circumstances so our decisions can't be based on what we think is logical." Rantaro continued, "Being too cautious could lead to our downfall here." 

"I agree! You all are way too cautious!" Kaito said pumped up. "I think we should use it too! We can't win just by running away all the time!"  

"Huh?" Echoed Shuichi. 

"If we can't face danger like this, how will we ever face Monokuma?" Kaito answered. 

"Kehehe... well aren't you confident. You don't even know how we are going to win do you?" Korekiyo commented. 

"That's true... But I do know that if we do nothing then we'll never find a way to win!" Kaito announced. "If you wanna run away... I wont stop or blame you." 

"Okayyy fineee! Let's go everyone!" Kokichi shouted, only to look around to see no one else moving. "Huh? Why isn't anyone leaving?" 

"Kaito's right! We can't run away from things like this! Even the main characters of anime go through troubles that they had to stand up to!" Tsumugi shouted.
