Mayday! Danganronpa: Dreams And Nightmares

Chapter 5

Yume's death sent us all into deep despair, Ava didn't even care. I have a feeling she's behind this, but there's no way to know for sure.

Monokuma has been awfully quiet lately, and I'm not sure why. All I know is we need to get out of here, 10 students have died already, and I want it to stop.

Micah and I have gotten closer, he's moved on, and accepted that he misses her, but he's willing to use that to give himself a better reason to live.

Jack has been researching what's been going on in the files for Monokuma's office. He called me and Micah to come look at one of his discoveries.

We all went up there, and he was waiting for us.

"No time to waste." He said. "Look at this."

Me and Micah looked at the computer screen and I read what he was wanting me to see.

"Arje Ataro, Ultimate Talent Not defined." I read. "Who's that?"

"It may be the person behind all of this, we have no clue who they are or what they look like, and apparently according to Monokuma's list, She's on campus."

"What?" Micah said. "How could another student be on campus without our knowledge?"

"I don't know." Jack said. "But we can't dismiss that possibility."

"What's her talent?" I asked.

"It doesn't say, but I bet you Monokuma knows." Jack said.

"Are there any pictures of her?" Micah asked.

"No, nothing." Jack said. "But that bothers me because there's no info about her."

"What if one of the girls is Arje in disguise?" Micah said. "It could even be Aika."

"Stop being stupid." I said.

"Don't be an idiot." Jack said. "Aika has a file here about her, she's real."

"That's true, I guess you've solved a lot of mysteries with Jack too." Micah said. "Sorry."

"Apology accepted." I said.

"By the way, how did the last killing game end?" Micah asked.

"The 5th trial covered a victim that the students had never met before, it was unsolvable and Makoto Naegi was framed for it. He survived his execution." Jack replied.

"And the 6th?" Micah asked.

"The last trial." He said. "Makoto demanded a retrial and defeated the Mastermind, Junko Enoshima, The Ultimate Despair."

"Speaking of, what's Makoto's talent?" I asked.

"The Ultimate Hope." He said. "He overcame the despair Junko was bringing and spread hope to others."

"The Ultimate Hope..." I thought. "Huh."

I started looking through the files with him.

"The Remnants of Despair" Was another file we looked through.

"The Remnants of despair are a small army Junko Enoshima Used to induce despair all over the world. They consist of the 77th class of Hope's Peak High School, after they were brainwashed using the death of their class rep. The Dead members Include 2 people that our records don't know the names of, one of those 2 dead, and Teruteru Hanamura, Mahiru Koizumi, Peko Pekoyama, Ibuki Mioda, Hiyoko Saionji, Mikan Tsumiki, Nekomaru Nidai, Gundham Tanaka, and Nagito Komaeda."

"Are any of them alive?" Micah asked.

I read the bottom paragraph.

"The ones alive, now freed of brainwashing are Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu, Akane Owari, Izuru Kamakura, Sonia Nevermind, and Kazuichi Soda. Izuru's whereabouts are currently unknown, and the rest are getting their lives back together."
