Daganronpa: Broken Universes

Chapter 3: Hope and Despair Mixed (Daily Life Part 2)

Two days have passed since I've locked myself in my own room. 10am and nobody has came to check on me. Figures since nobody would want to check on a killer. But I haven't gotten anything to eat for me or Pichu and I don't know if these things can starve.

I hesitated but I stood up and got dressed. Carefully, I opened the door since I didn't want anyone hearing me. Looking around, nobody was near so I ran to the cafeteria.

Big mistake. Inuyasha, Bakugo, Ryuko, Usagi, and Shantae were in there. Their talking stopped when I had opened the door and all attention went to me.

"Oh look. It's the killer." Inuyasha's voice was the first to be heard.

"I actually thought he had died." Ryuko did a disappointed sigh.

"I just don't wanna talk to him." Shantae turned her entire body away from me.

Usagi didn't say anything and shook her head like a disappointed mother. She could at least say something and maybe I'd know if she was still my friend.

"Fuck off, bad haircut. Nobody asked for you here." Bakugo narrowed his eyes towards me.

"What do you want anyways?" Inuyasha looked to me.

"I was..just...Uhm..." After everything that was said to me, I didn't really have much to say.

"Spit it out, you fucking idiot." Bakugo just made me more nervous.

"We don't have all day." Shantae said impatiently.

"I'll just get food-" I was cut off by Inuyasha shaking his head.

"Get past me then. A killer doesn't deserve to get food."

"Just let him get food." Usagi walked over and grabbed my wrist, dragging me into the kitchen while I just got cold stares.

Once in the kitchen, Usagi let go of my wrist and finally, I saw a happy face.

"Don't worry, bad haircut! I forgive you!"

"You...forgive me?"

"I mean, I don't think you killed Leaf. Monokuma did but being honest, you should've just gave the ball to Monokuma but it's fine. You're good." She patted my shoulder and I was finally glad that one person had forgiven me.

But everyone had to forgive me. If they didn't trust me, I wouldn't be able to get through trials without me being the first accusation. Anyways, I waved to Usagi as I walked out, still getting a few stares my way.

This was a start. Usagi forgave me and I just need everyone else to forgive me. But I had to remember what Inuyasha told me...

"Shut up! Why not you go join Leaf?!"

"Face it, Trunks. You're gonna be alone for the rest of the time here."

I had to try forgetting all of that but it was just in my memory. What he told me somehow hurt me. I don't know how but it did. Maybe he was right. I'm just gonna be alone for the rest of the time here if I am here for the rest of my life.

Inuyasha can say hurtful words and not even feel pity. Maybe that's why he said that because he didn't feel pity for me. He probably still thinks I killed Leaf but I didn't. Or...I didn't mean to.

I should've just given the dang thing back to Monokuma. I'm such an idiot. Once again, Inuyasha seemed right.

Maybe I should go join Leaf.

"So, you're the other Ultimate Detective right?" Makoto said while still reading through the paper.

"Uh, yes. Shuichi Saihara."

"One of the three survivors or another killing game." Makoto held up the paper for Shuichi as he nodded.

"Hmm..another detective." Kyoko said as she went over to inspect Shuichi.

"Uh...nice to meet you, Ms. Kirigiri."

"No time. And the next one is..." Makoto looked up to a short, red haired girl.

"Prepare yourselves to be amazed. I am Himiko Yumeno, the Ultimate Mage." Everyone looked to her with a blank face.

"The Ultimate Mage?" Makoto repeated.

"...I'm also known as the Ultimate Magician."

"Makes sense. Another survivor correct?"

Himiko paused at the thought of being one before nodding. "Yep."

Makoto read over Himiko's paper. Another survivor of a killing game Monokuma hosted. The Ultimate Magician and another Ultimate Detective. Now, for the last one who had long hair in pigtails.

"The Ultimate Assassin, Maki Harukawa." She said it as if she read Makoto's mind.

"If I'm correct, there's another Assassin in the current killing game right?" Kyoko looked to Makoto as he nodded and held up a paper.

"Killua Zoldyck, the second Ultimate Assassin." He read out loud before Kyoko took the paper.

"Another assassin?" Maki said confused.

"There can be multiple people with the same talents apparently. Like Kyoko and Shuichi." Makoto pointed out.

"Can we get back to why we were called here now?" Maki said impatiently.

"Right. Monokuma started another killing game." They all looked at Makoto like he was crazy.

"Another? What does this have to do with us?" Shuichi asked.

"Well...he's taken people from other universes and we don't know how." They all looked surprised.

"This is really beyond my understanding..." Himiko mumbled.

"I don't know either..." Shuichi said as Maki nodded in agreement.

"You don't think Junko Enoshima has something to do with this right?" Makoto's eyes widened at Kyoko's statement as he looked away.

"No...Junko has been dead. No way she can come back."

"The previous mastermind of our killing game, Tsumugi Shirogane, had some ability to transform into Junko. But she was crushed by a rock when our friend destroyed the school." Shuichi added which lightened up Makoto for a bit.

"She for sure died." Maki input.

"There's a different mastermind for this one. $&]*}^~£]+\=\• is the mastermind." Makoto held up the paper for the trio to see.

"Looks weird." Himiko said with a straight face.

"The real question is...how did they take people from other universes?"

"I don't have a clue. They probably had their own way." Maki looked away to think.

"But we have to stop &$+]*]£\+\|•]." Shuichi said with determination.

"I like your thinking." Makoto smiled.
