Danganronpa AZ: Stained Destiny

Chapter 5 - The Empty Promise Looming Over the Guilty (Daily Life - Part 1)

Akihiko: "...M-Mm... Mm... H-Huh...?"

[Akihiko opens his eyes, finding himself in the bed of his dorm room.]

Akihiko: "...W-What the...?"

[Akihiko starts to sit up, but quickly stops due to a sharp pain in his shoulder.]

Akihiko: "G-Gah! What...?"

[Akihiko looks at his shoulder, and sees it is all bandaged up, although still in pain.]

Akihiko: "Oh... That's right... Takeshi. He... Shot my shoulder. That's... Right. All that happened at the class trial... Takeshi..."

[Akihiko starts to recall the events of the class trial.]

Takeshi: "...I'd prefer if you kept your mouth shut, Shinohara."

Takeshi: "Yes, I did. With my identity revealed, I saw no reason to hold back anymore. It was just to send a message. Don't get in my way."

Takeshi: "...I guess you could put it like that. Well, Shinohara was right. I'm this... 'Traitor', I guess."

Takeshi: "...Nothing much, I think. I'm just doing what I think is best to succeed in life. After all... I'm gonna be the winner of this Killing Game."

Takeshi: "That's some confidence... Do you understand why I told you all that I did before Inouye died? I revealed my entire plan I had for that serial killing case. Do you know why I told you that? ...I, too, am confident. I know for a fact... I'll be the winner of this Killing Game. No matter what, I'll make it out of here alive. And none of you will."

[Akihiko stops flashing back. He shakes his head out of frustration.]

Akihiko: "That bastard... He's been the traitor this whole time. And he's still among us... God dammit... And... Hisoka..."

[Akihiko thinks back to what Hisoka said after the trial.]

Akihiko: "Hey, Hisoka... You're not really gonna... Keep working with him like that, are you...?"

Hisoka: "I-I..."

"..."

"...I'm sorry."

[Akihiko stops flashing back.]

Akihiko: "She... She's still working with him. It's because he has some kinda dirt on her... What the hell could be so bad that she's willing to work along someone like him...?"

[Akihiko shakes his head again and sighs, before slowly getting out of bed. Every time he moves, the pain in his shoulder spikes.]

Akihiko: "Ow... Dammit, man. At least he shot the arm that was already broken, but still... Actually... Where did these bandages come from? And... Why don't I remember coming here?"

[Akihiko thinks for a moment before giving up, and leaves his dorm frustrated.]
