After introducing ourselves, we decided to leave and explore what we had to call home for now until we could find a.. different way out than 'Monokuma' had told us about..

I thought I was meant to be SHSL Lucky Student, so how did I end up in this mess?

The school seems to be fairly kitted out. There's a fridge that restocks itself, places for us to relax, our own dorms with a practically adorable sprite version of us on a nameplate that decorates the front of the doors - we had almost everything we needed to survive and live out quite a nice life despite the lack of sunlight..

Every window is covered with a metal plate, it's impossible to break it. Millie already tried to get through it. Indestructable. Doesn't even dent. Not even the SHSL Judoka can leave a single scratch on the stuff. I guess Monokuma planned ahead, the crafty little creep.

Another thing we noticed was that there are multiple floors to the building, but there is a set of large iron shutters blocking the staircase to upper floors, maybe we'll have access later on?

Anyway, Mina suggested that we all meet in the dining hall every morning to make sure we knew everyone was still alive. Obviously, we all agreed to it since it seemed like an extremely good idea.

Time to go back to my dorm room.

I need some rest.

We've been stuck here for 3 days.. there's literally no way of getting out. I know there's going to be a killing soon, I just have a terrible nagging suspicion of it and I worry about meeting the others at the dining hall in the morning in case one of us is, well, I'll just say 'missing'.

I woke up to the same annoying voice over the screen on the wall opposite my bed,

"Goooood morning everyone! Time to get up! Let's make today the best day it can be!" Monokuma's voice sounded through the monitor. The same usual morning announcement. I wanted to smash this thing, but the odd ElectroIDs we had been provided with included a few rules..

Rule 1.) Students may reside only within the school. Leaving campus is an unacceptable use of time.

Rule 2.) "Nighttime" is from 10 pm to 7 am. Some areas are off-limits at night, so please exercise caution.

Rule 3.) Sleeping anywhere other than the dormitory will be seen as sleeping in class and punished accordingly.

Rule 4.) With minimal restrictions, you are free to explore Hope's Peak Academy at your discretion.

Rule 5.) Violence against headmaster Monokuma is strictly prohibited, as is destruction of surveillance cameras.

Rule 6.) Anyone who kills a fellow student and becomes "blackened" will graduate, unless they are discovered.

Rule 7.) Additional school regulations may be added if necessary.  

This meant I couldn't, since we aren't allowed to destroy the monitors either - Monokuma clarified this for us after giving us our ElectroIDs.
