Bounty Hunter • Shuichi Saihara

(Killing game )

Shuichi's POV:

It had been days since the last killing - everyone was on edge, waiting for something to happen. Monokuma and even the Monokubs hadn't shown up for a while, even when we called for them. It was probably some psychological thing they were trying, maybe trying to drive us insane by deprivation.

I was sitting in my room, too afraid to go out; I was worried something would happen really soon, or that I'd be caught in the crossfire. Even though I was probably going stir-crazy in my room, considering I'd locked myself up in here for so long. Kirumi just delivered food to everyone's room - nobody else that I knew of dared to leave their room. Except of course, for Gonta who didn't really sense any danger... a hopeless idiot, but I'm still jealous of his ability to turn a blind eye to this killing game.

*ding dong bing bong*

In his usual high-pitch squeak, it was time for Monokuma's latest announcement - finally.

"Everyone please meet in the gym for a wonderful surprise!"

Wonderful? That's hardly a way to describe anything in this killing game. It was enough to pique my interest though, and it's not like I had much choice, so I unlocked my door to see everyone standing outside of their dorms. We all looked at each other suspiciously and made our way to the gym, as requested. I found it difficult to trust anybody here, but I suppose nobody can do much when all of us are together.

As the doors swung open, the first thing we saw was Monokuma with the Monokubs - which was missing a member, that blue one. That last trial wasn't just brutal for us, it seemed. I had no idea what would be our next 'motive', but I knew that someone was bound to snap.

"Now that you're all here, I'd like to present the ever-stunning, machine-gunning, overly-pain-inducing..."

He continued like this for a few minutes - based on his description, I couldn't think of anything else it could be except for a new—

"Miss (Y/N) (L/N)! The Ultimate Bounty Hunter!"

As if on cue, she burst down through the glass ceiling, descending a rope onto the ground in front of us - her bodysuit glistened in what little sunlight that was let in, but her beauty didn't match at all her description or expression. She seemed to be completely deadpan, and looking us all up and down, like pieces of meat in a butcher shop. She made her way down the line of us surviving students, before stopping at me.

"Hey. You must be... Shuichi? Shuichi Saihara, the Ultimate Detective? Yeah, I've been told a lot about ya. You solved that murder case, didn't you? Gotta say, pretty impressive for a mere apprentice."

How could she know so much about me? Had she just done her research or something, like looking up historical figures? Because she didn't seem to know any of the other Ultimates.

"So, there's only 6 of you left alive? Hope you're prepared! I'd  with both eyes open at this point, if I were you. Luckily, I'm not."

"Thaaaaaat's right! (Y/N) will *not* be participating in the killing game."

"That's a shame.- it would make this a *whole* lot more interesting!"

Why else would she be here, if not to participate? Was it possible she was behind this whole thing?

"No, she isn't the mastermind, if that's what you're thinking! I don't even know who you're talking about when you mention them. No, the Ultimate Bounty Hunter is only here for you!"

He pointed at me directly, causing everyone to turn around and face me. I had no clue what was going on, as I didn't think I'd ever seen her in my life.
