Hope is the new Despair ~ Danganronpa Roleplay

Chapter 5 - Bad things happen in the dark

Again, the night time announcement. Everyone, minus Akira, was still at least a little bit shaken by the Motive Video. Would someone actually murder because of it? Well...

Ash wandered into the video room, though, the lights weren't on and she couldn't see where she actually was.

"Hm, I wonder what this place is." She thought.

Jay locked their door and immediately fell asleep.

Sancia woke up, stifling a yawn. Her eyelids were heavy but she quickly forced herself up from the chair she had been slumped in as she caught sight of the silver moonlight trickling in. Sancia stumbled back as the events of the previous day poured into her mind, almost as if someone had hit her. She grappled at the knife in her pocket, finding unfortunate comfort in it's presence. Sancia knew she wouldn't sleep. Not after she'd done so for the majority of the day. She then slipped out of the room and into the hallway. Sancia stumbled through the almost silent halls, surprising herself when she didn't find fear in the loud clomp her every step made. She stiffened when she caught sight of Ray. She wasn't really sure what to think of him. He seemed dangerous but at the same time, she didn't. Sancia attempted to stay in the shadows, watching as Kirari disappeared around the corner.

Kirari went back to her dorm. She shut the door and locked it. She didn't plan on taking chances, the others now had a reason to kill. Then she remembered. Ash! Kirari hadn't talked to her much that day and she must be upset after the video. Kirari unlocked the door and stepped out of her room to find Ash. But first, she need protection. Time to go to the kitchen! Kirari crept in quietly. When she turned to the knives she was shocked to see that over half of them were already gone. This was bad! Whatever... Kirari grabbed a knife, slipped it into her pocket and left, off to find Ash.

Ray snooped through the halls, trying to find any dead bodies. Ray saw Kirari and decided it wasn't wise to engage. He decided to follow her in hopes of seeing something suspicious. Kirari suddenly stopped. She leaned against the wall, letting out a sigh. Ray raised an eyebrow, watching intently.

"Maybe I should just talk to her tomorrow... She would be freaked out if I came up to her in the dark in the dark..." Kirari muttered.

"Who?" Ray asked, revealing himself, totally not menacingly.

Kirari jumped and let out a squeak,"AH- Oh, I was just talking about Ash. I wanted to see if she was okay after watching the video, I will continue screaming now.'

"Aight, tell me when you're done screaming so I can do my evil monologue before I murder you." Ray joked.

"You shouldn't joke about that!" Kirari lectured him.

"Who said I'm joking?" Ray asked, amusement clearly I'm his eyes.

She narrowed her eyes,"Well, I'M serious!"

"Fine, fine. You're no fun. Anywho, on a serious note, have you seen anyone missing or any dead bodies?" Ray asked.

"Hey! I'm plenty fun! And no, I have not seen any dead bodies, and I don't believe anyone is missing." Kirari replied.

"Aight, tell me if you notice anything suspicious, other than me!" Ray chuckled.

"Well then, I hope you don't mind if I follow you. It seems you plan on watching the halls for a while and I feel safer knowing where you are." She asked.
