"Saki!" A voice called out from behind. We turn to see Tsukasa and Toya walking up to us. "Saki let me stay in your room!" He suggests which only puts a frown on Saki's face. "Brother I appreciate it but I'm not going to die tonight, I've been through enough already, if I ever feel unsafe I'll go straight to you or Ichi's room, okay?" Saki told him as a way to reassure the elder, but he wasn't convinced. "Saki.. I-" "Now now Tsukasa, I think it's a bad idea to constantly stay with each other." A voice says from behind. "What do you mean, Kamishiro?" Asks Toya. "I'm just saying, what if there is somebody here who absolutely hates you Tsukasa? You are the Ultimate Actor after all." He slyly says with a grin. "Where are you getting with this?" I ask him. "Now if somebody here hates Tsukasa, of course they could just kill him right? What if they want more than that, rather than seeing Tsukasa's bloodied form... perhaps seeing him cry over somebody else would pleasure them more..no?" There's just silence.. Tsukasa and Saki are too stunned to speak. "Don't say ridiculous stuff like that unless you have proof of it." Toya speaks out and Kamishiros sly face turned into more of a serious one, likes he's actually trying to protect the two. "Now I'm just looking at for you both." "Isn't that MORE of a reason we should STAY TOGETHER!?" Tsukasa screams, finally finding his words. "Who says they can't kill you both? All I'm saying is, think about it better.... Bye bye now." He says before taking his leave. The two siblings stand in silence, which was shocking, you never see this kind of thing from the Tenmas. ".... Don't worry about me brother, we'll stay together most of the time. Let's just go to our rooms now.." Saki quietly says. "Saki... alright, let's go Toya." The elder says, before turning to look at me with concerned eyes, as if trying to tell me "Please look after her." I give him a nod in response and he looks away and leaves. "Shiho and Honami already told me they were going ahead, we should go too, Saki." I tell her, still holding onto her hand and she gives me a nod in response.

"Hey would you look at that, our dorms are next to each other!" Saki calls out and I give her a smile. "Now I can visit you first thing in the morning." I tell her with a smile. "Yeah! Goodnight Ichi.." She says before giving me a hug. "Goodnight Saki." I reply before accepting the hug and we both go our seperate ways.

"Good morning, everyone! It is now 8 a.m. and nighttime is officially over! Time to rise and shine!" A voice came from the speakers, I look up at the TV that opened for the announcement. It's certainly Monokuma but the voice sounds... different? Where have I heard it before. Ding Dong Was that my alarm? I stand up to open the door. "Ichika." "Oh, Shiho.. good morning." It's Shiho my childhood friend standing out here by herself. "Mm morning. Everyone has started looking for a way out, Saki and Honami are waiting at the dining hall, we would like you to come along." She speaks in her same tone. "Oh.. alright, let me get ready and I'll come find you." I reply and she smiles at me and walks away. From the looks of it and the sound of Shiho's voice, nobody has died yet..at least not that she's aware of.

"Oh Ichika!" I hear Honami's voice as I approach the dining hall, she's sitting with Saki and Shiho. "Everyone, good morning." I tell them before taking a seat and Saki hands to me a hand-made breakfast. "Did you make this, Saki?" I question her and she looks at me with proud eyes and her hands on her hips. "Hehehe! We had all the ingredients so I made us breakfast to eat while we talk about a plan!" She exclaims proudly. "Alright let's discuss things." Shiho starts off. "We can either search for an exit, or take this time to look around the school, there seems to be multiple floors." She states and we sit there pondering. "If I may.. I think we should first look around the school.. lots of people have been looking for the exit for an hour now and nobody has found anything quite yet.." Honami suggests. We sit there and think about it. "I think Honami is right, we might come across something useful." I remark. Soon we all agreed on looking around.

"Okay... if the dorms are on the left.. let's start on the right! Oh! And we shouldn't get split up!" We all nod in agreement to Saki's conclusion and start going to the right. It is mostly classrooms but we also came across a computer room. "Oh, maybe we could contact people from outside?" Saki says before charging in. "I wouldn't be so hopeful Saki, it seems to convenient." Shiho says, despite her words I can see a little determination in her eyes as we walked into the classroom.
