"Bonding" Experience

Chapter 3 - Meet And Greet

(i apologize for the picture, also i have no idea how to write Komaru because I haven't played UDG so i hope i do her justice?)

Makoto's POV

"Komaru!! Come on, we're gonna be late..!"

"I'm coming, give me a second!"

Jeez. No matter where we went or how excited she was, she could never be on time. I clicked the power button on my phone. 8:46 A.M. The school wasn't that far but the Meet and Greet started at 9. "Okay! I'm re-" She looked at me from head to toe. "You're wearing that?" She giggled. "Ah, shut up!" I shoved her playfully. "I'm just teasing! Let's go already..!"
  ———————————————————-
By the time we got to Hope's Peak, it was crowded. Extremely crowded. Me and Komaru had to practically hold hands in between crowds so we wouldn't loose each other.

"Ouma-kun, please..!"

I looked over my shoulder. A boy with dark blue hair, and a black cap. He was wearing smudged eyeliner, presumably from the day before. He was yelling at a smaller boy, purple hair and a black and white checkered bandana. His outfit..looked like a straight jacket? I couldn't exactly see. Ah, no, now it looks like some white button up with..straps? Odd choice.

"C'mon, Saihara-chan! Take off the ha.."

The voice faded as Komaru dragged me along. We reached the doors to the hallway, and she pushed past the doors. "Komaru, slow down!" I ran, trying to catch up to her so she would let go of me. She had spotted a group of girls.

One of the girls had dark red hair and freckles, and looked at least 5'4". Another girl had dark brown hair with a green tint to it, her hair had reached at least to her calves and was tied with white ribbons. A smaller girl with the same red hair, however it had to have been brighter. She was sleeping..standing up. How in the-

"Any of them catch your eye?"

Makoto almost fell over from the unexpected voice. "Ah! What- Oh hey, Kyoko!" She waved, smirking. It was odd seeing her with much more emotion then in the killing game. She had gotten more comfortable with being around me and some of the others.

"I-I wasn't staring, I MEAN- I was staring at them but not because I think they're cute! I just-" She put her hand in front of her. "I was just teasing." "Oh.." She put a hand to her chin and observed the halls.  "So many interesting characters." "If that's how you'd put it.."

I looked around once more. "Are you going to introduce yourself to any of them?" I asked, tilting my head. "There are a few calmer people that I have met." Calm? That's a first. "One of them has my talent actually." My eyes widened.

"A gender bend!"

Me and Kyoko looked over. A girl with bright blue hair and glasses had overheard our conversation. "A-Ah! I apologize for eavesdropping but are you Kyoko Kirigiri?" She pointed at Kyoko. "Last time I checked, yes." The girls eyes have started sparkling. "Woahh!! You're so cool!!" She was "fangirling" as Aoi would call it.

"Uhh..who are you?" I asked, scratching the side of my face. "Oh!" She cleared her throat. "My name is Tsumugi Shirogane! I'm the Ultimate Cosplayer!" Cosplayer, huh? I've heard of cosplayers. They dress up as fictional characters, (or real people) and usually go to cons or show off their outfits on the internet.

"TSUMUGI, DID YOU STEAL MY F*CKING PANTA?!"

"Ouma-kun! We're in public!!"

Tsumugi facepalmed as I turned around. It was the same two boys that we saw at the entrance. The purple haired boy approached her with a devilish smile. "Hand it over.~" "Ouma, I don't have it." "I SAW YOU!" "I DONT HAVE IT" I need to do something or else they'll just attract attention.

"Uhh..I don't think she has it.." The boy looked at me and smiled and placed his two hands on the back of his head. "Oooo~ Defending Smoogs already?~ You must be thinking of her with her clothes off!"

"OUMA THAT IS EXTREMELY INAPPROPRIATE!" The blue haired boy had caught up to him. "ugHHHHH FIIINEE!" The blue haired boy had spoken up again. "My name is..Shuichi Saihara. The Ultimate Detective." So, this is who Kyoko was talking about. Shuichi nudged the smaller boy next to him. "...OH!" He groaned.

"My name is Kokichi Ouma!~ The Ultimate Supreme Leader!" Supreme Leader? What an..odd talent.

"It was lovely to meet you two but we must get going..Ouma..Shirogane.."

Me and Kyoko nodded as the three walked away.

"I must go find Taeko-kun. He gets rather stressed when in crowds." Kyoko walked off. I should probably not stand here like an idiot. I looked over where Komaru was.

"Nyeh..Tenko..aren't you being a bit..loud..?"

"AH! I'm so sorry, Himiko!!"

"You sure are an interesting bunch.."

Komaru waved at me. The dark green haired girl had turned around and I knew I was done for. "DEGENERATE! STOP STARING AT MY PRECIOUS HIMIKO!" I jumped, quickly looking away. "I- Uh..that's my brother." "Oh. Well he's still a degenerate!"

How am I going to survive this year?
