Danganronpa x Reader - It's PUNISHMENT TIIME!

Ishimaru x Reader - Am I still the same?

He was supposed to be a moral compass. The Ultimate Moral Compass. So why? How could he commit murder? The very idea that Ishimaru could kill was. . .unbelievable. 

"Everyone, I'm sorry." The silence was pierced by Ishimaru's blank, emotionless voice which matched his face. What was he thinking right now? Could I believe he was sorry? No! I shouldn't - I can't think like that!

I stared at Ishimaru, determined to keep my faith in him. But I wondered if the Ishimaru I wanted to trust, and the Ishimaru in front of me at this moment. . .were they same?

"YOU IDIOTS! MY BRO WOULDN'T KILL ANYBODY! RIGHT!?" Mondo glared at Ishimaru with such ferocity and desperation that everyone took a step back from the Ultimate Biker Gang Leader. Naegi taking 2 steps.

"I'm sorry Mondo. I don't deserve to be called your bro. . ." 

. . . . . .

"What?. . . . . .What are you saying bro. . . ?" The disbelief in Mondo's voice matched that of fear in my heart. The fear that I may never trust anyone again. That I may not love anyone again. 

If Ishimaru had lied to me. . .just to kill and get out of here. . .I don't know if I could take the pain. 

Tears started to flow uncontrollably down my broken face. I stifled my criers however because I wanted - no I needed to know the truth. Why did Ishimaru do this? Why would he of all people kill?

Despite my efforts though, Ishimaru noticed and for the first time since we had voted him guilty, he spoke with feeling, or more, with concern.

"Y/N. . .why are you crying?" He raised his hand slowly and touched my cheek as he wiped my tears away with his thumb.

"Because I-I-I don't want to think you meant to kill someone from the start. . ." My voice was cracking. . .Why now?!

"Of course I didn't! I never wanted to kill but - but I had no choice. . .the motive. . .our secrets. . .if you found out my secret - if you found out who I really was. . .you would never look at me the same why again. . .you wouldn't look at me with that smile of yours that I love so much!" Silent tears streaked down Ishimaru's face but his voice stayed firm and strong. It lite a fire of hope in me.

But that light of hope was being clouded by despair. . .What was his secret? Was it really that bad?

"Ishimaru, you need to know I will always love you no matter what. . .even now when you've become a murder. . ." Ishimaru flinched at this point. "I still love you! I can't stop myself!"

His shoulders started shaking as he hide his face. I could hear him crying softly. 

"Y/N th-thank you. . ."  

Suddenly the calming yet sad atmosphere was shattered by a passionate shout-

"SO WHAT IS THIS SECRET?! WE HAVE TO KNOW!" Ishimaru shrank away from his demanding friend, pain and apprehension clear in his blood red eyes.

"I might as well tell you now shouldn't I?" 

He averted his gaze from everyone and looked at Monokuma who sat at the edge of his chair as if he were watching an exciting play. 

"This is starting to get good! But hurry up 'cause I wanna execute you! Boy that'll be fun!" 

At that, Ishimaru clenched his hands into fists "Dammit" he mumbled "Not yet!"

Ishimaru took a deep, shaky breath and turned to look at you. I was beginning to doubt if I wanted the truth, but now wasn't the time for doubt. Ishimaru wouldn't be able to 'tell me later' or 'tell me some other time' these were some of my last moments with him, and that very thought itself sent another tear rolling down my cheek.

"Y/N. . .the truth is. . .

CLIFFHANGER! I finally have an idea for Ishimaru's secret. . .Expect tears and feels in the next chapter!
