Point of View: None

Angie was stood there, still smiling as she stared at Mondo who she just toppled to the ground.
"W-what the fuck?! How did you-?"
"Ha Ha Ha!" She smiled "Atua truly gave me the power to protect my friends!"

Point of View: Angie Yonaga
"You're irritating"
"You're just a gimmick!"
"You're the reason I hate religion"
I must really be the worst person.

I grew up on an island nearby Polynesia. I lived in a peaceful village... yeah yeah a peaceful village! And in there, we had a thriving community! I loved to talk to everyone there.

I was born near a costal town, where most people there were fishers or farmers, and everyone wore bikinis due to how warm it was. I had two conservative parents, my mother was a housewife who loved to sew and my father was a fisher who spent most his times at sea. When I was a little pēpē*, my mother made me a yellow jacket, telling me as long as I wore this, I'd be allowed to wear a bikini... well the word she used to describe it made me sad and I won't say it here!

*pēpē- means kid

One day when I was 13, while my parents were out walking, they were swept away by a tide, and I saw their corpses on the shore. I was stunned, shocked. How would I reply to this? I was quite a sad, lonely child, often spending times picking at the ground in the yard while others played sports. I was sad. That was before a close family friend invited me to go into a more rural part of the country, and of course I was excited to! And because she was like a friend, I trusted her!

We went to a rural village where I was a stark contrast to everyone due to my outfit. I had no friends, and I felt lonely yet again. But now I had a family with my mother figure, I... don't seem to remember her name. I was constantly left out of everyone's activities and no one at school noticed me. I was praying one night, crying to Atua that I felt lonely and that I needed helped. And that was when I had an idea.

"Mama! Atua has spoken to me!"

She dashed into the room and immediately listened to me, asking me what he said, holding my hands, begging for an answer. What could I reply with but 'Wisdom'? After she asked if he was talking now I shook my head and she left me alone, not even asking about my puffy eyes.

At school, on the playground, I began to pretend to have a spasm, making everyone gather around me before...

"Atua has spoken to me!"
"What did he say Anna?"
"He said... he said that we're all good kids... and that we're doing well!"

After that incident, everyone paid attention to me, and I became popular. And during art lesson, I began to 'speak' to Atua, painting and crafting works of absolute genius, making concerning noises (as my teachers put it) whilst doing so. And I apparently made masterpieces.

One boy at my school caught my eye, Basilio, he always played with me, and he thought about me and not Atua. Often not caring about himself just looking after me. But he moved while we were growing close and it shattered my heart. I felt more lonely and therefore began acting out more.

My teacher took my to the head of the temple, and I was taken in as a prophet, and everyone worshipped me! Like a goddess! But... it was all a hoax.

When I got accepted into Hope's Peak, I was thrilled! My entire village was sad, begging me to stay and tell prophecies of the god we worshipped! But... Atua would stay with me, and he'd be amongst them, so I told them they'd be fine, and went off to Japan.

I spent a month there, not knowing the language well, until a sweet woman began talking to me...

"Ha! Slut! Love the bikini!"
She smirked, wearing a flashy, pink school uniform.
"Haha! Thank you! Atua told me to wear it today!"
"Atua aye? That your God????"
"Yes yes! He's so divine."
"I don't give a fuck since I'm a walking GODDESS myself."
"Ah... well Atua calls you a bitch..."
"Ah your god stinks! Fuck off!"
No one had ever yelled at me before... so I was surprised. I stuck by her, and we became good friends, I would die for this girl...

It made my head hurt to think about it...

While in Japan, I began reading BLs, well Miu introduced me to the art form, and I loved it... I read so much that, it made me wish to be a male to experience this pleasure. That's when I bumped into a thin, young man like the ones in my books. His name was Kiyotaka

After Miu dragged him to hang out with us, I grew quite attached to him, and I felt happy with him. He reminded me of Basilio. I invited him to a 'painting' session with me and Miu, but after asking, I dragged him to a corner. It was an awkward day, I told him Atua said I must marry him and he must sleep with me to make him satisfied. That's when, completely flustered, he said he was gay. Well... whoops.

After that day, I toned down my Atua nonsense and tried to be less forceful. I still believed in him, he was my god. But I felt like I was being a bad person playing it out. But sometimes... I think I can hear him, because I hear a constant voice talking to me and guiding my way, and guiding my way through my art.

"Now now Mondo! Atua told me to hurt you really badly! Because you hurt Taka-Kun!"
"Angie wait WAIT!" Before punching him, I saw him shake before me. I felt bad. I pulled away and sat next to him
"What is it Mondo?"
"I... I wanted to apologise to Taka..."
"But why..? He and you don't get along right now."
"Yes... but... I love him..." and hearing that, I squealed.

"Mondo!~ you should tell him!~"
"He has a boyfriend though... one who's probably using him..."
"Ah... Nagito-Kun?"
"Yeah him..." Mondo pulled out some mints, chewing them, Atua forcing me to think of Junta-
"Well he seems to love him. But I never thought they were meant to be..."
"How so?"
"Ever since you barged into my studio, bought a painting, and looked at Taka with such desire~" I waved back and fourth "it was vivid..."
"You're not painting me in a good light."
"Well, you are a gang leader..." I pointed out, "part of one who terrorises innocent people..."
"Ah... good point..."
"But if you want me and the girlies can help you get with Taka..."

After that, I grabbed Mondo's wrist and ran through the halls, kinda running like Ash to Eiji... and I dashed into Miu and Kaede, arguing by the lockers

"Hey girls!
We need to discuss things!"

Thanks for reading! I don't know much about the Polynesian culture and Maori so I tried not to say anything too off base, since I don't wish to be offensive. I hope you enjoyed reading! Bye bye!

I also managed to get this out on time. Yay!
