All of a sudden, a small monitor turns in and a shadowy figure appears.

"Can everyone hear me? I hope you can! Everyone, please gather at the center of the island immediately. Puhuhu!"

Should.... Should they go?

Cinders blinked,"Uhm..."

"The fuck?" Volcan scoffed.

Dusk trotted to the centre without any further thought.

"I've got a bad feeling about this, chief." Alfonso mumbled.

"We should still go, c'mon." Isabelle sighed.

Lucille picked herself up and headed towards the centre. Ambrosia turned away from Ikuto, grabbed Masako's hand and skipped off with her to the center, humming a little tune as she went. Tetra looked around and headed off to the center as well.

"I have a bad feeling about this." Masako whispered to Ambrosia.

Ikuto strode off to the centre, Leo a couple of steps ahead. Azumi and Ebony were walking together, seemingly after an argument as Ebony had duct tape over her mouth and Azumi had soot all over her face.

"It's okay, we'll be fine, we're all together! Nothing too bad can happen!"

Masako smiled, slightly reassured by her new friend.

"What do they want?" Taeko sighed as she spotted something rummaging from behind the statue,"Hang on-"

Ebony ripped the tape off her mouth,"The hell is that?"

All of a sudden, a small stuffed bear popped up,"Howdy there, students!"

"Why is there a stuffed animal?" Leo scoffed.

"Well, excuse you!" The bear pointed,"I'm not just a stuffed animal, I am your Headmaster! Monokuma!"

"AWWW, OUR HEADMASTER IS SO CUTE!" Ambrosia cooed at the fuming bear.

"I know I am." Monokuma grinned.

"You. You know where my brother is." Isabelle concluded the second she saw him.

"This guy? He's a robot, there isn't a chance." Alfonso sighed.

"Oh, Ray? Love that guy!" Monokuma chuckled,"Was such a pain in my ass though, always insulting me."

Isabelle sent Alfonso a glare before turning back to Monokuma,"Where is he?"

"Oh, he's back at Hope's Peak Academy. He's thriving!"

"I doubt it. I've called him 78 times, all ending with you making a bad impression of his voice saying 'Try calling me later'!" Isabelle pointed out.

"He's busy with his girlfriend and job as Head Chef." Monokuma shrugged,"I'm sure he's fine, I just had to take a few calls."

"Hang on, the bear said 'was'... That's past tense!" Leo quickly concluded.

"A chef? Have you ever seen him make fish fillet?" Isabelle crossed her arms.

"He introduced himself as the Ultimate Chef. What can I say?" Monokuma shrugged.

"Ooh, girlfriend?" Ambrosia marveled, soon realizing the others were staring so she sheepishly scratched the back of her neck,"Sorry."

"He's a flirt, don't worry about it. So he was bullshitting you?" Isabelle questioned.

"Isa, I know I don't say this often but shut the hell up! This is our headmaster." Alfonso sighed.
