DAILY LIFE
______________________________________
I opened my eyes from what seemed to be a dream. I was sweating and I could feel my face was warm. I shot up from my bed panicked.
F/N : Where am I...?
As I looked around I realized I was in my cottage. I almost forgot that I along with some others are stuck in an island, forced to participate in a killing game.
So what I saw yesterday was....really real...?....... I don't know if I can trust anyone anymore...... What if they-..... No... You shouldn't think like that.
It's all my fault.... If I just helped nagito with cleaning duty.... I could've prevented the killing.... If I just wasn't stupid....Why didn't I...... Why do I feel the need to..........
I layed back down on my bed, staring at the ceiling.
_Hajime POV_
I headed to the hotel restaurant with dreary, sullen footsteps.
Mahiru : Ah...Hajime...you're already here... Good morning...
Kazuichi : Y-Yo...
Mikan : Good..... Morning....
Just as I thought the atmosphere in the restaurant is pretty gloomy. But after what happened yesterday....thats to be expected.
Hiyoko : Huuh? You guys don't look so good. Your faces all look like you just attended two funerals in a row.
I guess some people don't feel sad... I observed the room searching for a certain Guitar girl, But that person was missing.
Mikan : That's,like....what happened...! Byakuya and...Teruteru got killed..!
Hiyoko : I'm not talking to you, you ugly bitch!
Mikan : Waaaaah! Wh-why are you always so mean to me!?
Hiyoko : Still, I understand about Mr.Ham hands, but is there even a reason to be sad about Teruteru's Death?
Kazuichi : Wh-what the heck do you mean.....?
Hiyoko : Well, he was a crazy guy who killed someone! He totally deserved to die!
Peko : I understand how you feel, but that's going too far.
Hiyoko : Huuh? Is it alright to defend a killer? Are you trying to justify murder...?
Peko : No... That was not my intention, but....
Hiyoko : Then you gotta hate him more than ever. You gotta hate him from the bottom of your heart. He's a stupid piece of trash, bastard who commited the lowest crime possible, He deserved to get killed. In fact, I'm rather relieved he was executed. If I could have, I would have totally spat on him too.
Akane : ...hm? .....Hmmm?
Hiyoko : Hey, what gives? Does a peabrain like you have something to complain about?
Akane : Well, it's not about that but...somethin' smells, don'tcha think?
Sonia : Eh, Again!?
Ibuki : Dont tell me...it better not be a dead body.... Wait... Where's my Partner!?
Akane : Nah, it's not the smell of blood....This time. It just smells really bad.
Hajime : S-Smells bad......?
Akane : It's kinda like when a bar or night club smells after closin' time, ya see.
Kazuichi : I don't know those smells!You must've had a pretty rough life!
Peko :.... Now that you mention it,I do smell something.it's like a sewer or rotting garbage...
Hiyoko : Kyahahahaha! I know what it is! Nekomaru's breath probably stinks!
Nekomaru : Gah-hahaha! You've got me there!
Hajime : She didn't say anything remotely funny just now....
Akane : No it's not Nekomaru. This smell is comin' from....you, Hiyoko.
Hiyoko : .... Huh?
Kazuichi : Woah, it's true! Hiyoko...you reek!
Gundham : Tch! A rotten smell stings my eyes...! As if a demonic eclipse is about to commence...!
Hiyoko : agh... Aghhh...waaaaaaaaaaaah!
Ibuki : Oh, she's crying!
Mahiru : I've said it before, but you guys are really insensitive!
Kazuichi : Ah, no.....it actually doesn't smell *that* bad...I mean, as long as I breathe with my mouth....
Hiyoko : Waaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
Akane : Are you even takin' baths?
Hiyoko : ugh... *hic*...*hic*....No.
Hajime : Y-You haven't bathed...!?
Hiyoko : I can't help it...I can't tie my kimono sash by myself...waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh!
Mahiru : H-Hey....Hiyoko.... You don't have to cry so much....I'll tie your sash for you, okay?
Hiyoko : hic.....hic......really?
Mahiru : I can only tie a simple knot,but....if that's okay with you, I can teach you.
Hiyoko : Yaaaaay! I love you, Mahiru! I'll give you a kiss!
Mahiru : H-Hey Hiyoko....You don't have to hug me..
Gundham : ....Kehehe,she appears to have taken a liking to you.
Ibuki : Welcome to the world of girl love! Its slippery when wet!
The air's.....suddenly..not so.. Tense anymore. Well, I guess its better than being down forever. If I was all by myself...I probably wouldn't have been able to put my feelings aside and move on like this..i guess... I have these guys to thank...
Mikan : um....anyway...what happened to F/N , Fuyuhiko and Nagito? It seems they are.....not here...
Peko : I saw Fuyuhiko earlier near the hotel. I invited him to breakfast, but he declined.
Hajime : Well, that's just Fuyuhiko being Fuyuhiko but...
Akane : Who cares about Nagito!?
Gundham : He is cursed....A child who summons misfortune, so to speak. But where is the Dark Queen..?
Nekomaru : J-just letting you know.... I don't know anything! W-Without hesitation, I-I don't know anything about Nagito at all!
Kazuichi : He's right,forget him! Lets just forget about that creep already and focus on F/N!
F/N : Sorry I'm late but what's going on....?
Ibuki : F/N!!!!
Ibuki lunged at F/N nearly knocking them both down.
Well I don't need to worry about her anymore.
F/N : H-Hello to you too, Ibuki.
F/N stood straight and looked at us confused.
F/N : And can I ask where is Na-
Monokuma : Good morning,Darling! And what's up? Did someone get kidnapped?
Nekomaru : Y-You came just at the right time!
Monokuma : Hmm-? At the right time?
Nekomaru : N-No it's nothing...
Monokuma : I don't really get it,but....you must've yearned for me. Your outlook on life has changed due to my cuteness,so your body can't stand to live without me, huh? "I-I can't help myself,you know.......M-My body....reacts to Monokuma...on it's own..."
F/N : The only reaction I have for you is disgust and hatred. Now just hurry up and tell us why you are here.
Monokuma : Aww man...But I thought you loved me? Oh well, you'll eventually learn! To be honest...im searching too. My valued servant has disappeared.
Hajime : Servant...?
Monokuma : You know,My monobeasts.....One of them just disappeared....
Huh? One of the monobeasts disappeared...?
Monokuma : Maybe I cut back the cost of their food too much? Perhaps they're boycotting me?
Gundham : "But that guys is the weakest of the league of four....How shameful for a Monobeast to lose to a mere human."....Thats what you wanted to say, right?
Monokuma : Hm?
Gundham : Though this is merely the prelude, the climax will occur soon after...Now then, let me hear you scream! I shall make such sweet music for you!
Monokuma : Hmhmhmhm!?
Mahiru : Hey Gundham....you should stop playing with that stuffed animal.
F/N : More like care bear reject.
Monokuma : I'm still being called a stuffed animal....and I'm way better than those bears... Oh well...it looks like you guys don't know anything about my Monobeast either... Then it's a waste of time for me to worry about it. I don't wanna go bald from worrying too much. A wise catbot once said "Our eyes are on the front so we can keep moving forward!"
As Monokuma said those familiar sounding words to us, once again....He disappeared.
Peko : Hey, what do you think he meant just now? He said something about a Monobeast missing...
Chiaki : Hm...The only possibility I can think of is..
Monomi : Um...were you in the middle of something? If so, i can just come back later....
F/N : Her...?
Akane : Then leave.
Monomi : Kyaah! Atleast ask for me to leave kindly!
Chiaki : Ah, before you leave I want to ask you something. Did you have anything to do with the disappearing Monobeast?
Monomi : Ah yes! That's right! Tadaaaa! I'm the one who defeated that Monobeast!
Hajime : Y-You did!?
Kazuichi : Defeating a Monster like that...How the hell did someone like you pull that off?
Monomi : I'll talk about that more in detail in a different mode. Anyway, I've released the bridge gate for you all!
F/N : So,we can go to the new Island across the bridge...?
Nekomaru : I-IS THAT TRUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!?
Monomi : Ahem! That's totally right!Now that you all can go to more areas,let's all get along and live a fun life together for sure this time!
F/N : Yeah right.
Monomi : Love! Love!
Mikan : L-Living together on this island isn't what's important...W-We need to find a way to escape..
Mahiru : Of course! Escaping from this island is our main goal!
Monomi : ... Huh?
Ibuki : Nobody wants to live in a swash buckling, Hollywood type, action film!
Mikan : I want to live a life where i can be more average....a life where nothing happens.....Thats better for me...
Kazuichi : All right! If you find anything that can be salvaged for boat parts, let me know immediately!
Monomi : I-It seems that....everyone's united on a path thats different from what I had planned.
Gundham : Fuhahaha! Then let's disperse! The time has come to release the cursed seal!
Akane : All right! Let's find a way to leave this island!
F/N : ....
Monomi : That is....impossible....
Hajime : Hm?
Monomi : Leaving the island is no longer possible....
Hajime : ... No longer possible? Hey...What does that...? Ah...!
Kazuichi : Hey Hajime....Just leave that thing alone already! after all....she's the same as Monokuma. Its better if you don't get that close to her.
Hajime : Y-You're right...
It seems everyone's attention has shifted toward exploring the new island. Expecting to find something that'll help us escape this situation, everyone filed out of the restaurant.
