Danganronpa: Days Before Despair

Chapter 38~Planning

Super High School Level Impersonation Master Chouko Oyashi's POV

Because I have so much free time these days, then I decided that I was going to be part of the committee type thing that's organizing the end of the year bash. I heard that there was going to be a meeting in the library for all people who were going to help out.

When I got there, I looked around, expecting all of the rich wadbags and a few unpopular wadbags and a few rich and unpopular wadbags, meaning Byakuya Togami.

Instead, I saw Chiyosu and Ryo kissing behind a bookshelf.

What?

Was I really the only person who had cared enough to show up?

I guess that meant that I could design everything to look seriously terrible just to torture everybody because they didn't help me.

Why does that sound surprisingly like a lot of fun?

I laughed at my own thoughts and skipped off to find some way of planning out everything. I was already getting really hyped up about all of this, believe it or not!

And it had only been two minutes of lonely solitude!

Super High School Level Shinobi Xindel Fujimoto's POV

I got a text from Chouko one afternoon, so we decided to hang around later on in my room. Jon and Zuka were hanging out at the ice cream place near here, so the two of us would be alone... Together...

Maybe if I'm sneaky, I can get a kiss...

Chouko burst through the door not long after, dropping endless stacks of paper onto the desk near the door. "We have a lot of work to do. There's planning for the end of the year party going on, and I'm going to need help with it," she said, though I could barely make out her words. How could she talk so fast?

"So... You really need my help with this?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. "O-okay..."

"And if possible, then I want to see if I can get help from the others, too," Chouko told me.

"Others meaning...?" I prompted, gesturing for her to go on.

"Ayameko, Sabastian, Jon, Zuka, Akane possibly, Alexis if he stays away from me, Yazu, Elec, the moody twins, and then the most evil person known to man," Chouko answered.

"The most evil person known to man? Are you talking about that tiny dancer? The one with the pigtails? She's scary," I commented, shuddering as I thought of her face.

"No!" Chouko cried. "I would never associate with that little pile of scrappy trash."

"Then who are you talking about? I'm afraid that I don't follow what you're implying," I said.

"I mean Chiyosu," Chouko answered.

"Why all of these random people all of a sudden?" I questioned.

"For about ten seconds, I was planning to be diabolical and plan it to be prissy and pink and stuff like that," Chouko began. "But then again, I get enough eye rolls as is, so why not make it something that people can enjoy? Therefore, I want to get people from a bunch of different crowds to gather around and be useful."

"I suppose that makes sense," I agreed. "But... Why did you suddenly decide to do all of this stuff? It doesn't seem like you to cut off your cartoon time to plan a party for a bunch of moody and hormonal teenagers."

"Because people claim that I need to get out of the house more, which I really don't understand. I spend at least one healthy hour in the sun everyday when I walk down to the ice cream place to eat some stuff while I do homework," Chouko answered.

"I see..." I said, unable to think of anything else to say in response.

"Now! Let's get started already!!" Chouko cried.

Super High School Level Warrior Ryo Matsuki's POV

Now, when you hear that the crazy impersonation obsessed chick in your P.E. class tells you to go and meet her at the ice cream place near your school, what is your gut reaction?

Maybe she ditched the ninja and wants to go out with me instead.

And then curiosity kicks in and you find yourself staring at her and a bunch of other weird as heck kids sitting around a table, staring at a map.

I slowly walked closed, unsure of what one says in a situation like this one. "Um... What are you doing?" I asked, raising a suspicious eyebrow.

I noticed Chiyosu was sitting there as well, arms crossed. "Chouko said that she wanted to see us all about a party," she scoffed.

"Seriously?" I asked, shaking my head. "Doesn't that girl ever know when to quit?"

"Excuse me, princess."

I realized that Chouko had been two feet away from Chiyosu when I said that.

Whoops.

Regardless of my snarky remark, I pulled up a chair and found myself sitting in it. I soon realized that the map was an activities board.

The locations of a variety of activities were all over. I could barely see any of the map because of all of the small papers taped to the map. "What is this supposed to be?"

"This is what I like to call party planning Chouko style!" Chouko exclaimed. "Now, does anybody have any idea how we should decorate? I'm thinking pink just so that we can see the annoyance on that rich Byakuya kid's face."

"No," I said simply.

"Are you going to object to everything we say?" Sabastian asked, rolling his eyes.

"Yeah, I am, as a matter of fact," I answered.

"Think of it like this: if you agree with things, the sooner you can go home and do your emo warrior things," Chouko proposed to me.

After some hesitation, I sighed. "Fine... What do you guys have in mind?"
