Danganronpa: Days Before Despair

Chapter 23~Face Off Initiate!

Super High School Level Scientist Yazu Takashi's POV

Okay. Let me just say that when we mentioned Chiyosu being involved in the vandalism, she looked ticked. Like, not normal annoyed or peeved. She kind of looked like she wanted to kill us or something like that.

"W-what?" Chiyosu squeaked out with wide eyes. "I'm... A vandal? That's ridiculous. Why would you think of me as such a low life criminal? I'm insulted!"

"Just tell us why you did that stuff already!" Chouko demanded, getting in Chiyosu's face with her magnifying glass.

"You're stupid idiots," Chiyosu muttered, glaring down all of us angrily. She grabbed Chouko's magnifying glass and shattered it on her knee.

Chouko gasped. "She broke my magnifying glass detective thing! Now we know for sure she's nothing but a low life criminal!!" she complained loudly. "Let's get her and turn her in to the student council so that everybody will know that she's just a crazed criminal!!"

"Calm down, Chouko. You're letting your emotions get the better of you," Ayameko told her with a gentle stare. Chouko looked about to retort, though she then stopped and sighed, unable to come up with a counterargument.

"Why did you do it?" I asked, crossing my arms once I had managed to creep out from behind Ayameko. I pulled Elec out with me, who looked ready to run.

Chiyosu didn't give me an immediate reply. She turned away with crossed arms. "If I did do it," she murmured. "You forgot to mention proof that I am this vandal that you keep on insisting I am."

"I think... I think I remembered something... From when that one room was messed up..." I suddenly gasped. "That's right! I just remembered who it was that attacked me during the assault thing for the writing on the wall!!"

"Who was it?!" Elec exclaimed, a fire in his eyes from behind his mask. That's why he's such a great friend and I love being around him.

"It was... It was...!" I began.

Super High School Level MMA Fighter Jon Shushiro's POV

I was walking through the school hallways when I ended up running into a certain ninja, who was rubbing her head with a frown.

"Zuka!" I gasped, running to her side. She was stumbling around, something I knew well was not befitting of a ninja.

"Hey..." Zuka whispered, rubbing her head even more.

"Are you okay?" I asked, concerned at her sudden display of weakness.

Zuka nodded. "I'm fine," she grumbled, though it was obvious she was just putting on a brave face so that I wouldn't worry. She always did hide her emotions like that. I could just tell she was one of those sorts of people, you know?

"Are you sure?" I asked, already able to tell she was lying. I'm not always able to tell this stuff, but sometimes, things are just obvious.

Zuka hesitated for a few seconds. "Not really," she confessed. "I have a splitting headache for some reason, but I can't seem to remember what happened..."

I wrapped a supportive arm around her shoulders. "Come on..." I told her gently. "Let's go to my room so you can rest. Going back to your place probably wouldn't be the best since Chiyosu isn't the easiest person to deal with."

Zuka couldn't help but laugh in a form of agreement. "You aren't wrong," she admitted, a tiny smile creeping onto her lips. I could feel myself grinning as well. Maybe there was a flipside to this school and all of its endless homework.

Super High School Level Prosecutor Elec Daegana's POV

"It was Chiyosu!" Yazu finally exclaimed, pointing at Chiyosu powerfully.

Chiyosu stared at him for a few seconds before... Laughing?

"That's a good joke, Yazu," she giggled, trying her best (and failing quite miserably) to hide the fear that had crept into her voice and actions. "Me? A criminal? All because you thought you remembered me attacking you? That's a ridiculous idea. Why are we even listening to somebody like him? His hair already says he's crazy, so why in the world would we be listening to his endless speaking about nothing?"

"You're the crazy one! If he says that you attacked him, we're going to trust him on it!" I exclaimed back, feeling anger run through me. Why was Chiyosu such a difficult person?! And why would she feel the need to attack Yazu when she was working to vandalize my room that one time?!

"Shut up!" Chiyosu shouted, stomping her foot on the ground in a childish fit of anger.

"You're acting like a criminal being caught for a crime. Could you please explain why you're displaying this sort of behavior?" Ayameko asked, tilting her head in an angelic and yet still taunting manor. She sure is somewhat manipulative...

"I'm not acting like that," Chiyosu snarled, glaring at Ayameko angrily. She was scary when she was angry... Seriously... "You all are the ones pressuring me into acting out of character. Why don't you just buzz off and leave me alone?"

"We can't do that if you potentially attacked Yazu!" I exclaimed. "Why don't you just go on and confess before we have to tell the rest of the school about all that you've been doing to us?!"

Chiyosu seemed to pause at this. "You're really going to tell on me, Elec?" She asked, her false nice façade reappearing. I hate it when she just changes over to her 'nicey nicey' side again! It's annoying as heck and lets her get away with attacking people all the time!!

Let me tell you a funny story.

I can't type directly to my stories at school anymore due to website blockages so I have to copy and paste it (so if there are any small plot holes because of this, my deepest apologies I'm forgetful-). And I also have to ignore the annoying as heck kid who likes telling me to stop typing 70+ words per minute because 'it's annoying'. 

So today was a lot of fun as you can see-
