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

Chapter 34

"Well... I guess we should split up into groups again?" Shuichi asked holding the three items. Everyone else voice their agreements. You looked over to Tenko, and went over to invite her to your group. You felt bad for her... after all it's partially your fault that Himiko is dead. 

"Hey Tenko, do you want to join my group?" You asked. 

Tenko looked at you in surprise, "Sure! Who else is in it?" 

"Oh Rantaro for now." You answered, I think Kokichi went to go explore with Gonta and Korekiyo. 

"Oh...." Tenko answered, "Oh well, even if I'm in a group with males it's okay! You guys can't be that bad..." 

"Oh? Tenko I've noticed that your view has changed a lot on males?" Rantaro said sneaking up behind you. 

She gave a short smile, "I don't like you guys much, you are all degenerates after all... but I realize evil isn't limited to just one gender." 

You felt a stab to your heart, Tenko was trying to change for the better. 

"Mind if I join your group as well?" Kirumi came up and asked. Obviously, you all let her join your group, there's almost no one who disliked Kirumi.

"Well, let's take the Ninja scroll then? It seems pretty interesting, and I think I know where it goes." You suggested, there were no complaints from the rest of your group. After taking the object from Shuichi you went outside to find the ninja statue. Yes you already knew that it would unlock the Dojo. You hoped it would lift Tenko's spirits even just a little bit. 

"It's a dojo!" Tenko exclaimed, "Let's go inside!" Sprinting ahead of the rest of you, she walked inside the dojo. A look of marvel was plastered onto her face. 

After Tenko promptly showed you guys a few Neo-Akkido moves, you all discerned that there was nothing else that the Ninja scroll unlocked. You guys headed back to the dining hall to wait for the other groups. Evidently, the other groups had much more to explore as it took them quite awhile. 

Eventually, the two other groups did filter into the dining hall again. 

"Okay! Atua's group will go first!" Angie exclaimed, "Our group had the magic key! It lead to the fourth floor, in which we found some really dark rooms, Korekiyo's lab and my lab!" 

"Yes yes! Korekiyo's lab was really cool, it even had a gold Katana!" Kokichi exclaimed, clearly having gone with Angie's group. "Angie's lab also has locks... apparently it suits her tastes exactly though." 

"Which led us to thinking that this school really IS created for the seventeen of us." Ryoma commented. 

Everyone sort of sat there, thoughts about what Ryoma just said were stuck in their heads. 

"Gonta thinks it's possible for school to be created for friends!" Gonta answered. 

Keebo shook his head, "But logically, building this big of an establishment for the seventeen of us only? It seems unreasonable." 

"It's still possible but... let's move on for now. Rantaro's group? What did you guys find?" Korekiyo asked. 

Rantaro stood up, "We unveiled a Dojo using the ninja scroll. It seems to be Tenko's Ultimate Lab." 

"Yeah! It's super cool! So come check it out and spar with Tenko!" Tenko cheered. 

"Well, we found the computer lab, it apparently can create a whole new world... So Keebo would you look at that later?"  Shuichi spoke up. 

"Actually.... I'm not that computer savy." Keebo answered. "My apologies." 

"Keebo... I've been meaning to ask but... what exactly is your talent?" Korekiyo commented.
