Don't you remember us? - Pregame Shuichi X Ingame Kokichi

Partners in crime

(HELLO AGAIN! So, I just wanted to thank you lot for actually reading my story! I didn't think it would get one view, let alone 10,000+! So I really appreciate it! Anyway, I hope you enjoy this new chapter! P.s. Shuichi hasn't told Kokichi about Monokuma's deal with him, keep that in mind-)

Kokichi POV:

I skipped out of my room, leaving Shuichi to begin getting ready for our plan. I was.. excited! Excited to plan a murder with him. Weird I know- I don't know if I was just happy to be with him, or if I was excited to help him escape even with the chance of failure..

They'll never find him out..

Without the ultimate detective, they'll all be dead..

Including me..

Yet I'm fine with that fact..

I'll lay down my life for him, as long as he escapes, this world will have someone to help. Even in the state he's in, he'll go far. I don't think I'll survive anyway. As long as he escapes, I'm okay.

I walked back to the dining hall and looked inside to see everyone still there, just as I thought. I swung the door open with a loud bang and skipped inside for my dramatic entrance.

"Nishishi! Hey guys~" Everyone turned to me and Tenko immediately stood up.

"What are you doing here?! You're meant to be watching the degenerate!"

Kaito stood up too, "Yeah! Keeping my sidekick in line!"

I sighed and smirked, "he's finnnnne! I'm just getting food for us! Wouldn't want him to starve! Now would we?"

Tenko scowled at me and looked away, "fine! Get food for you both and head straight back. I'll come along to see if he's still restrained after eating."

"That won't be necessary!" I panicked slightly.

"Huh? How do I know you haven't let him go?!"

"Aww, c'mon! Don't you trust me?"

"Not one little bit."

"Rude-" I put my hands behind my head and smiled, "there's no need to go check on him, I've got things handled~!"

"Maybe friends should trust Kokichi! Gonta trusts him!" I looked at Gonta and smirked slightly.

"Well, if Gonta trusts him, I guess I would too", Tsumugi agreed.

Tenko sighed and rolled her eyes, "fine, I guess, I'll stay with Himiko instead." She quickly sat back down.

"Yay! Thanks for trusting me guys~!" Idiots.

As I walked past all the others to get our food, I slipped a note into Kaito's pocket without anyone noticing.

Nihihi~ one less idiot to deal with~

Shuichi POV:

As Kokichi left the room, I got to work on our plan. All I had to do was visit the warehouse and get to the pool without being spotted.

Easy.

I peaked out from behind the door and looked around the area before quickly walking out of the room and closing the door behind me. I couldn't stop for anything, I had to get there as quick as possible so the others wouldn't see me. I can't mess this up again. Kokichi thought so long about this, I couldn't fail him now when he's trying so hard to help me.

I still don't know why he wants to help. I haven't told him it would get him out too or anything about my deal with Monokuma. So why?

I'm not going to complain at least..
