Inspired by Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc. You do not need to be a fan of Danganronpa to enjoy this story. Fifteen of Equestria's "ultimate" ponies enroll in Starshine Academy, a well-known school for the best of the best, run by Celestia herself. Going to school here is a sure-fire sign of success. However, something isn't quite right. After entering, the students become quite dizzy, and soon faint. Upon waking up, they find the windows covered and the doors bolted shut. They are informed by a foal named Mono (pictured in cover art) that if they ever wish to return home, they must kill somepony... and get away with it. With the tension increasing and a traitor in their midst, it's only a matter of time before somepony cracks.
