Danganronpa: Despair to Prodiges V2

Pirate vs. Sorcerer

(Kirito POV)

A few hours had finally passed since we had been in here. I've been resting and getting my strength back while Aqua did...Something. I'm not really sure, to be honest. She would wander around, then play tic tac toe against herself, or do something similar. 

"All right, I'm gonna try to cut the boulder," I said as I got back up.

"Wait!!!" Aqua hoisted Kazuma on her back and went towards me.

"You might wanna stand further back. I'll be ready for it but if Gojo's still beyond this door then a fight's gonna break out."

Aqua moved back while adverting her eyes.

I got into position and cut through the boulder...Only for nothing to happen. The night sky filled my eyes as a fresh breeze blew over me.

"..."

I ran back inside as Aqua ran out. I grabbed Albedo and Luffy and brought them outside.

"What are we gonna do now?" I heard Aqua mutter to herself as we both took off the gas masks.

That is a good question. I guess though that this would mean that a war is gonna play out. And if we are gonna have to fight Gojo...The only one who can keep up 100% is Yuuki. I might survive, but surviving and defeating your enemy are two different things.

"...Let's wait for these guys to wake up first."

Luffy, Albedo, and Kazuma all woke up relatively soon and I filled them in on the situation.

"Damn it. Next time I see that witch I'm gonna smack her so hard..." Kazuma muttered

"We need to find Yuuki ASAP. However, getting him on our side will all be for naught if he is asleep. We have to find him before he sleeps this whole week away." I said

"Agreed. We should all travel together though. It's still dark plus we don't know if we're gonna get attacked anymore." Kazuma agreed

We all got looking again while mainly sticking inside the forest. We first made our way to the hospital, where he was last as we know. Kazuma said he wasn't here, but he very possibly could have come back. Plus this place would 100% likely not have anyone else.

We entered, and silently made our way around. We checked each door when Albedo motioned us to come over.

We all did and a wave of anxiety washed over all of us.

We were too late. Yuuki Kagurazaka had fallen asleep.

"...We're gonna be in trouble, aren't we?" Kazuma muttered

"Hey, let's go pick up Nami real quick," Luffy said

"We can't." I said, "With Gojo on their side and Yuuki out, we have no chance. That's only gonna cause more issues for us if we go in looking for a fight."

"...Listen, one of my crew is in trouble right now. I don't care if she doesn't remember me or if she hates me. As her captain, it is my duty to ensure she lives and is safe. I can fight Gojo as well if I have to."

"Luffy...Listen, I understand where you're coming from but-" Kazuma started to say

"You're part of my crew as well. At the same time though, I don't want you guys to be nearby. Stick with Kirito."

"LUFFY!" Kazuma yelled as he grabbed his shirt, "YOU'LL DIE!"

"And who decided that?" Luffy asked back in a stone-cold voice, "People fighting with something to lose vs people fighting with nothing to lose. People often say that the latter will win, however, that is simply not true. What if you're team, not my crew, but your own team was in danger of death? Would you lose to someone who's fighting for the hell of it?"
