"Ahem! Ahem! Testing, testing! Mike check, one two! This is a test of the school broadcast system! Am I on? Can everyone hear me? Okay, well then...!"
The voice seemed totally out of place. It was so playful, so completely unconcerned... She couldn't help but feel a deep, unnerving dread at the sound of it. It was like hearing someone laugh at the scene of an accident.
"Ahh, to all incoming students! I would like to begin the entrance ceremony at...right now! Please make your way to the gymnasium at your earliest convenience. ...That's all. I'll be waiting!"
"What. The. Hell was that just now?" Junko looked completely creeped out.
"Well then, if you'll excuse me..." Togami was the first to move from the hall towards the gymnasium.
"Hey! What, you're gonna take off just like that!?" Junko was baffled by Togami's
nonchalant attitude."Ohh yeah, now I get it! This whole thing was just to get us all pumped for the entrance ceremony! Man, thank god it was all a joke. I'd be totally freaked if this was real! Alright, guess I'll head out too. Wonder what they got planned for us next..." Hiro left after him.
"Damn, I was totally looking forward to that nap too. Why'd they have to go and kill the mood?" Leon followed.
"W-Wait for me! I wanna go with you!" Chiro cried.
"That is that, then. I will see you all there." Then Celestia.
"N-Not that anyone cares, but I-I'm gonna go too..."
Everyone took off for the gym, but Kirigiri remained there. That uneasy feeling she'd had before... She couldn't get it out of her mind. And it looked like she wasn't the only one...
"This...this doesn't seem right." Sayaka commented nervously.
"Yeah, that announcement was totally weird." Junko agreed.
"Maybe, but just staying put doesn't mean we'll be safe. Besides, aren't you guys just a little bit curious to find out what's going on around here?" Said Kirigiri, feeling slightly curious as well as uneasy.
"If we do not move forward, we learn nothing. The only choice is to push ahead." Sakura stated.
So they began they way to the gymnasium, passing by a barred staircase and more locked doors.
"God, I had no idea this Hope's Peak Academy place was gonna be such a pain in my balls. It really ain't that much different from the time I spent in juvie. Hell, this place is even worse!" A grumpy Mondo said to himself.
"And why isn't there anyone here? Walking through the halls, I didn't see a single person..." Sayaka's uneasiness only grew every second.
" Isn't that like, seriously not good?" Junko was sweating bullets.
"Th-They're just trying to spook us! They'll take those metal plates down later, I'm sure of it..." A wishful Taka tried to light the mood.
"All we can do now is hope for the best and prepare for the worst. Nothing ventured, nothing gained." Said Sakura while going inside the gym.
"Well hell, it ain't like I'm scared or nothin'. Let's just get this over with!" Mondo approached the door and kicked it open "Hey! Where's whoever called us here!?"
"Mondo, stop! No running!" Ishimaru followed his lead nagging about rules.
She looked one last time around the trophy room that was before the gym and went inside with everyone else.
