It was early on Jabberwock Island. No one was awake except for Nagito. Or so he thought. He was standing on the beach, looking at the ocean waves and horizon as if something was there. Something that could help him and his classmates off of this accursed island. Everyone had just figured out that they were trapped on the island and the only way off was to kill someone. Everyone swore to not harm one another, but Nagito could tell that it was an empty promise.

Nagito suddenly heard the sound of shuffling behind him so he looked. It was his classmate Chiaki Nanami, the Ultimate Gamer. She was shuffling her way over to Nagito, yawning here and there. She was always tired and it was evident that she had just woken up.

"Ah. Good morning, Nanami-san!"

"Good morning....... Yawn ....... Komaeda-kun....."

"Have you just woken up?"

"Mhm...... Why are you awake....?"

"Don't mind me. I'm just some piece of trash that doesn't need your pity."

Suddenly, Nagito felt two small arms wrap around him. Chiaki had hugged Nagito.

"I told you to stop saying that, Komaeda-kun"

"S-sorry Nanami-san......."

"You better stop. You're not anything what you say you are"

Chiaki feels something drip onto her face. Nagito is crying and he hugs Chiaki tightly, not letting her go.

"That...... That's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to....... me....... Thank you so, so much, Nanami-san. You're very kind"

"I try. Now, please sleep. I worry about you"

"Fine...... Good night Nanami-san"

"Good night Komaeda-kun"

And with that, Chiaki walks off to her cottage, Nagito shortly going to his soon after.

~Nagito's POV~

After my interaction with Chiaki, I head back to my cottage just as she did. I really don't deserve her attention. I unlock my door and head inside. I close my door, lock it, remove my shoes, sit on my bed, and hold my head in my hands as I contemplate the previous interaction. She is just so........ Nice........ She doesn't seem like everyone else. She's........ Different...... To say the least. I aspire to be as hopeful and caring as her, but I never see that happening. I'm just some useless trash that no one cares about. Except for Chiaki. I must live for her. If it's the last thing I do.

"I need some sleep"

I mummer to myself before I lay on my back and stare up at my ceiling of my cottage. At least Monokuma was nice enough to provide us cottages and food. I don't see any kidnapper or insane murderer doing something like that. I would know. Ever since my parents died in that airplane accident, my life has been a downward spiral of bad luck. Being kidnapped. Having multiple deadly illnesses being diagnosed. And now being trapped in this hellhole with no escape. What have I done, what has anyone done, to be stuck here? I shouldn't think about such topics right now. I turn to my side and close my eyes, chasing sleep. I finally catch it after around 20 to 30 minutes.

My dreams - or well nightmares I suppose - are filled with my classmates. I envision what will happen to everyone. Byakuya being killed under a table. Teruteru being executed for it. Mahiru being hit with a metal bat. Peko doing it and being executed. Ibuki being hung and Hiyoko's neck being slit. Mikan doing it. Nekomaru being hung and then dropped and decapitated - somehow as a robot - and Gundham being trampled, clearly in an execution. The last two are faint but I could see me and....... Nanami?!?! What?? Why her? She would never!

I awake in a could sweat at the thought of Chiaki doing such a thing. I wipe my forehead and get out of bed, going to the bathroom to have a glass of water. I grab a paper cup out of the overhead cabinet and hold it under the faucet and turn it on. My mind begins to wonder it's late night thoughts. My thought train gets interrupted by the feeling of water on my cold, pale hand. I look down and realize that I was thinking for so long, I let the cup overflow. I turn the water off, pour out some water, and drink a little before going back into the main room, glass in hand. I set it down before laying back on my bed once more. Sleep hits me instantly and I practically pass out.

My dreams were a blur and I wake up to the sound of talking and laughter - the walls of our cottages are as thin as a sheet of paper. I sit up in my bed, rub my eyes to clear my naturally foggy eye sight and I stretch.

"What was that nightmare all about?"

I say to myself. I get up and grab a new change of clothes and I get dressed. I then head out of my cottage and go to the restaurant to eat breakfast and hopefully see Nanami-san and ask her about my dream. Maybe she will have some answers. I go in and see that everyone is there........ Except for Chiaki. I sit down anyway and Teruteru brings me some food. I sit there and listen to everyone's conversations.

~Chiaki's POV~

I was awake pretty much all night, monitoring Nagito from the safety of my cabin. It can sometimes come in handy to be an AI in these situations I suppose. I was going through the files as Nagito dreamed. How did he dream about everyone dying. Let alone getting it right? His luck is unimaginable, yet, he....... is the way he is.

Monomi - or well Usami - is sitting beside me while I go through the files.

"How could he actually dream about this?"

"I don't know, Monomi. As it say in Five Nights at Freddy's 4, some things are best left forgotten"

"I told you to stop making Five Nights at Freddy's references!!"

"Well the movie should be out soon and you can't stop me"

"Fine. Just finish going through the files"

"I will"

I continue to search through the files to no avail. I can't find a single thing that would help me figure out how Nagito was capable of knowing this.

"I can't find anything"

"Have you really tried?"

"Yes! I did!"

"Don't yell at me!"

"Sorry...... I'm just stressed that he knows...."

"It's okay, Nanami. Should we call the Future Foundation?"

"Maybe tomorrow. Lets get some sleep"

I close down the files and Monomi leaves my cottage. I lay down on my bed and stare at the ceiling. I fall asleep soon and dream about nothing really.

(I will finish this once I get the motivation. I just want to get a part out 😭)
