Dangan Ronpa:return to Despair Academy

Fathers Day and Despair

I felt myself return to consciousness.I felt warm wool at my fingertips and the smell of dirt and the earth filled my nostrils.I didn't want to move.I was too comfortable and peaceful.But regardless of my wish I sat up and took a look at my surroundings.

We were in a dimly lit room with dirt walls.It was about the size of a normal high school gymnasium.A lone lightbulb was hanging from the ceiling with a cord next to it.The floor was made up of some kind of stone that was smooth and cold to the touch.My feet brushed that floor and it shocked me,as I had been enveloped in warmth moments before.

I was surrounded by knit blankets.I figured maybe Yoshio or Akihiro had carried me after I passed out.

I think I have a pretty good excuse for passing out.I thought to myself as I got shakily to my feet.

Minako was standing in the corner of the room near a pile of crates and boxes.She and Yoshie were looking inside and writing numbers down on small notebooks they had.Yoshie had that same smile on her face.Like what had happened didn't happen.

She is either really strong,or really clueless.

Gunshots and screams emanated from the halls.Our home room teacher Mizushima Sensei was trying her best to keep us calm,but she herself was falling apart.

We were taking roll in home room when it started.People of all ages,men,women,children,broke into the school.

After the incident where a reserve course student murdered a whole classroom of Ultimates,people on the outside were going insane.I didn't even really understand why.All contact with the outside world had been cut off,and they amped up the security while attempting to continue classes.

However that day the police just let the crowd break through,and I even saw some of them joining the ranks of the murderers later on.

That left our class,Mizushima Sensei,Minako Akiyama,Tomoko Hisakawa,Shoichi Inoue,Masaru Nakahara,Aya Kagome,Satoru Maki,Yoichi Nakano,Maiko Oshiro,Kimiko Ito,Akihiro Yamaguchi,Yoshio Kanemoto,Yoshie Miura,Igao Ogino,Takumi Hayashi,and Fumiko Arai.

Mizushima Sensei had ordered our class to board up the door and stay as silent as possible until help came.She told any of us with a phone to call anyone that would listen.But calling the police did no good.Their lines were busy 24/7 what with what things had become.Satoru somehow managed to get a hold of the SWAT team,but they seemed to be tied up with their own problems.

Meanwhile Fumiko was having a mental breakdown.She was laughing hysterically and rocking back and forth in the corner of the room.Her metaphorical sister Aya was doing her best to calm her down.Fumiko was getting dirty looks from Satoru and Kimiko.

"Fumiko you need to calm down!"Kimiko yell/whispered at Fumiko.Her usually tight bun having become undone her blonde hair hung around her head in a frizzy mess.

"Tell her to shut up!"Masaru was getting tense,like he usually did when he got nervous or stressed out.It was just what he did.

"That idiot is going to get us all killed."Satoru was running his fingers through his hair,which was hanging over his eyes.

"Shut up!You guys aren't helping!She's fine!"Aya tried defending her friend,but I saw her trembling in fear.

"Everyone,you need to escape through the windows."Mizushima stood up at the front of the class room."Yoichi,Yoshio,get the fire windows open.Akihiro,I know you've been keeping your bow in these desks."At this Akihiro looked sheepish."Don't be embarrassed Akihiro today you save lives.Do you guys have those windows open?Kimiko get everyone outside!Yoshio,after you get that open get the gun from my desk.There should be a clip you can use."
