Ultimates. Man, they are heavily scouted for good reason. Ultimate students are highschoolers with special talents. We kind of stopped showing ourselves after the killing game of the 78th class of Hope's Peak high school. Junko Enoshima, the Ultimate Despair, infiltrated the school and organized a killing game that the 16 students were forced to participate in. The school was shut down for a year or 2 to clean up. Some people still supported Junko's actions, despite them being quite unreasonable. Now that the school was open again, students were being scouted.

I'm Aika Tsuji, the ultimate Oneirologist. Not sure why I got that title, or even did to earn it. Apparently I helped a psychologist figure out what was wrong with a guy, simply by analyzing one of his dreams.

But Hope's Peak scouted me nonetheless. Have you ever heard the phrase; "history repeats itself?" I didn't think it was true until I woke up in a classroom by myself.

I thought to myself, "What the hell am I doing here?"

I noticed the window was covered in barbed wire. And my head just froze in thought. I was scared shitless, I just didn't know what to expect from anything here. Hell, I didn't even know what "here" was.

I mustered the courage to exit the classroom, where there was a sign pointing to the gymnasium. I reluctantly followed the signs out of curiosity. Behind the gym door was something I never would have expected.

15 other Ultimate students were in the room, and they all looked at me, obviously confused.

"So that makes 16 of us." said one of them, who looked like he was wearing....is that a Halloween costume? His hair was blue, he looked like he was wearing a ninja outfit.

"Yes, you can count.. Congrats." Said a woman who.... They had red skin? What the hell? She had red skin, horns, and a devil tail.

2 of the guys snickered. One looked like he was the most muscular man on earth, and the other had blue hair, and one eye was blue, and another, a darker blue.

The rest of the students were interesting, but I was too confused to focus on them.

Somebody tapped me on the shoulder. "So what's so special about you?"

"Huh?" I asked.

"Who are you, and what's your talent?" The girl asked.

"Umm, I'm Aika, I'm an Oneirologist." I said nervously.

"The hell is a oneir...one..onir.." She clearly couldn't say the word.

"I study dreams." I say.

"That's...eh." She rolled her eyes. "I'm Ava West, the ultimate bowler. I've never been beat!"

"Okay?" I said. "Nice to meet you."

The intercom came on and said, "everyone, when I say your name, go up to the front of the room and say your full name, and your ultimate talent."

"Aika Tsuji." It said, I decided to obey, just in case this was part of orientation.

I went to the front of the gym, and said "Aika Tsuji, ultimate Oneirologist."
