3rd Person POV

"S-Starve...?"

After Monokuma left all the students trapped in the fun house to their own devices, Fuyuhiko was the first to speak up.

"Dammit! How much more of this do we have to take until he's satisfied!?"

"Uh… was he serious about there bein' no food...?"

"...Yes, Akane."

"No way! That's the one thing I don't want! I don't mind starvin' as long as I can eat! Just lemme eat already!"

Even if what she was saying sounded idiotic, hearing her desperation only further sank everyone's heart deep into despair.

"As soon as she learned there was no food, she was overcome by hunger... Obsessions are truly annoying…" Nekomaru mutters.

"But at least try to stay calm! Now's not the time for you to paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiic!"

"Well, being loud here isn't gonna help us, so for now, we should explore the inside of this building too." Nagito spoke up to take control of the conversation

"After all...if you don't give up, you're sure to find hope... Isn't that right, Fuyuhiko?"

"Y-Yeah...that's right…"

"Then let's get started. The same pairing as before is fine, right?"

"Hold on!" Kazuichi interjected into the conversation with a desperate look on his face.

"This time around, I really wanna pair up with Miss Sonia…"

"...She already left with Gundham and Ibuki." Fuyuhiko pointed to where Sonia was standing just a few moments ago

"..."

"Looks like you're being avoided... Not just rejected…" Nagito let out a small laugh at Kazuichi's expense.

"..." Even if he said nothing, Kazuichi looked like his day was completely ruined.

"Kazuichi...I understand that you're feeling down but we better get going."

"Akane… you too. How much longer are you gonna stay shocked? C'mon, let's go."

With heavy steps, everyone left to explore Grape House.

"Now then, where should we start...?" Nekomaru turned to Hajime once they were the only two left.

"Since we're on the 1st floor... It might be okay if we start with Grape Tower."

"Hmm, so you're saying you're going to start with the most suspicious place… In that case let's start with Grape Towerrrrrrrrrrrr!"

"LET'S START WITH GRAPE TOWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!"

"Why are you repeating yourself?" Hajime furrowed his brows as the two started searching around this new area.

Upon beginning his investigation, the first thing Hajime took notice of was a statue of what looked like a muscular woman in a sailor uniform. At the bottom where the podium stood was a plaque labeling the statue "Ogre".

Hajime didn't really understand what the deal with it was so he just left it alone and moved along in the direction of Grape Hall with Nekomaru by his side.

And just like with Strawberry Hall, at the end was a door with a picture of this area's designated fruit and a button beside it.

"AAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLL RIGHT! Leave it to me!" Nekomaru raised his voice and vigorously slammed the button more times than he needed to...
