Danganronpa: A Meaning of Meaning.

Prologue(III): Or Prisonmates?

A moment of walking later, the three of us finally reached the other building that was connected to the place we woke up in before.

"Practice building...Buildings can practice?" Hikaru said in a manner which I couldn't tell was a joke, or a genuine question.

"How are you still alive?" Kaniska said, sarcastically.

"Bzz, we mean that in a concerned way, bzz." Antho added.

We then opened the door, and headed inside of the building. I can see a hallway similar to the one we were in before, though there were colorful doors around us that also weirdly had a gap between each of them. Besides that, I also saw a flight of stairs in the corner.

The three of us then decided to split up, and try to open every door there. We soon learned some of them were locked.

"No luck opening this one." Hikaru said, as he tried to open one of them. It had an image that looked very technological.

"Bzz...this one also doesn't work, bzz."

I tried to open a door that had an image of confetti on it, and, found that I could turn the door.

"Oh, this one works!" I say to the other two.

The three of us then went inside the room, and were unexpectedly blinded by bright lights.

"AHWUWHHEJW-" Hikaru yelled out as he fell to the floor while covering his eyes.

I'm glad the club has gotten me used to these kinds of lights...

"Is there something wrong?" Kaniska asked us, seemingly unaware of the bright lights. I guess that hair definitely helps...

"Hello!" A feminine voice greeted.

Looking at the source of the voice, I saw a blonde woman in a ponytail greet us. Around her, I could finally see the room fully. Besides being very..very bright, and hurting my eyes, I could see it was covered with yellow wallpaper, and there were balloons all around the place. There were crates that had party supplies such as confetti, fireworks, and party poppers, and...is that a cannon in the corner?

"Bzz, can we help you, Bzz?"

"My oh my...Looks like we've got a party here." She said as she observed the three of us.

"What?" Kaniska said.

"I-it's nice to meet you!" Hikaru said as he got up from the floor, and tried to do a handshake with the stranger.

The blonde then grabbed his hand, shaking hands with it, before helping him up effortlessly.

"The more the merrier when it's a party so, come come! Don't be shy!" The girl said as she dragged the three of us into the middle of the room where there was a couch, and a table.

"H-hey!" Me, and Mitsukuni tried to struggle, but was somehow still able to be dragged away singlehandedly by her using one arm.

Meanwhile, Hikaru looked like he enjoyed it. He seems easily impressed.

As she sat us on the couch, she grabbed a tea set before pouring all of us a cup of tea.

"So...lemme guess, bus accident?" She said while holding a cup in a tone that sounded subdued compared to what we just experienced.

"...Yeah. We're in the same boat like the others." I said.

"Bzz, don't you mean same bus, Bzz?" Antho suddenly added, making me once again internally rage at the awful pun.

"Creative...I like that." She said before sipping a cup of tea. "Do any of you have any idea where we could be?"

The three of us shook our heads.
