My eyes opened to the dimmed skies and a very worried Mikan, who was also crying. I coughed as she gasped in fear.

"WAAAAHHHH! [Y/N]-SAMA, YOU'RE OKKKK!" She hugged me tightly as I gagged from impact. I heard two pairs of footsteps run towards me on....

..Stones?

I shot up, messing with my gloves, and saw that we were on a pathway that was known as "Jabberwock Park." I saw that everyone was gathered around me.

"[Y/N]!" Jaxon sprinted towards you and bear hugged you. You hugged him back with tears in your eyes. They quickly faded, you didn't want to cry infront of your new friends.

"You're stupid, Jay!! You will never, ever, EVER go into the ocean again, do you hear me missy?" He yelled. I laughed a little bit.

"Yeah, ok mom." He glared at me but smiled.

"I'm glad you're ok." He stepped away to talk to Chiaki and Hajime, flashing smiles as Gundam approached me.

"If it weren't for me, you would have perished in a measly death that was fit for a mere mortal with you!" Gundam bellowed in a deep voice. I smiled and gave him a friendly, but tight hug.

"Thank you, Gundam. If I died, I don't know what would have happened to my brother. I can't thank you enough." He had a stiff form, but he didn't turn me away. He loosened quickly though and wrapped his arms around me. People had their own coversations and looked at us, but I didn't really mind. We pulled away from eachother and Gundam covered his red face with his scarf.

"Um.. angel--" He began. I looked at him with my eyebrows raised and a smile.

"Angel?"

"Well, you did escape death, but I would like to inform you that I was not the only one who rescued you." He said, nudging his head towards Fuyuhiko. I looked over and he was leaning on a tree, away from everyone else. I also noticed that Sonia was... glaring... at me, but she went back to talking to Kazuichi with a smile. I turned back to Gundam and flashes a grin.

"Thanks, Gundam, I'll do whatever ask for tomorrow, but I wanna go thank Fuyuhiko." Gundam nodded his head and shoved me to the short yakuza.

"Tch, what the hell do you want?" He said coldly. I was a little bit intimidated, but I didn't say anything. Instead, I just hugged him. He stiffened, but then he put one arm inbetween my shoulder blades, and another on my waist.

"Thanks for saving my ass back there," I began, "I would have been dead without you and Gundam. I'll do whatever you want after tomorrow, I promise." I pulled away and smiled at the blushing gangster and laughed, "You're blushing?" He puffed his cheeks out, which made him look even more like a babyface.

"Don't fuck with me, bitch!! I'm not blushing, dammit!" I laughed even harder until I heard an annoyingly cheerful voice call out.

"Ahem, Hopes Peak Academy students, this is your headmaster speaking!" A small bear jumped out from the inside of the statue.

"W-What the....?"

"What kind of fucking joke is this?!"

"A teddy bear is the headmaster?"

"I AM NOT A 'TEDDY BEAR' YOU NITWIT--" The bear screeched, making me wince, "As I have said previous, I am MONOKUMA! Did you hear me that time?" We all nodded, saying many things as questions raced through my mind.

"Now, this is the killing school trip! Now now, I bet you're all like, 'Kill? I can't do that!!' and maybe you're questioning my own authority. Well, first of all, I'm your principal, UPUPUPU! And second of all, sucks to be you, cause to get off the island, you gotta KILL someone! Not to mention, you need to get away with it too."

Wait, KILL someone? I.... I can't...

I hadn't realized that I had fallen to my knees hugging Jaxon, who was paler than usual. We didn't want to kill eachother, and we couldn't even if we wanted to! He was my brother, and everyone around me is my friend. I could already tell that someone was already planning a murder though. I just know it.

I would do my best to protect my brother, even if it cost me my life.

When "Monokuma" finally left after changing Usami into Monomi, it was 10:00pm, or in other words, nighttime. I said goodbye to the group and told everyone to lock their doors. They all nodded and we bid farewell until the morning. I flopped onto the bed, not even bothering to take off my gloves, very much awake because of my anxiety. I sighed and got up, moved out the door, and walked to the beach.

At night, the beach was stunning. It was moonlit, the sand sparkled underneath of your bare toes. Eventually, you came to a hault and stuck your feet into the cold, ocean water. The light breezes brought a chill to your spine, but it was comforting. You stared at the bright, shimmering stars, until you heard a familiar voice.

"Can't sleep either?" My head snapped to look over at a smiling Hajime. I smiled and nodded my head. He walked over and scooted next to me. We sat in comfortable silence with the ocean's waves crashing into our feet. It felt like an eternity before someone decided to say something.

"So, um... what's keeping you up?" My throat tightened up a little bit, so I did a pretty obvious swallow of saliva. After a solid minute of hesitation, I felt as if Hajime deserved to know and decided to tell him my past.

"I-I um....." I struggled to find words."I have m-major anxiety, because um... I was a-abused to protect Jax..." My breath became hitched as I felt tears start to sting my eyes. He looked at me with concern and wrapped an arm around me, pulling me into a hug, but I continued, even though I didn't want to. I just couldn't stop,"A-A-And well... I.... I just wish my foster dad d-didn't try t-t-t-to--!" I started to sob uncontrollably as Hajime squeezed me into a hug. I wept into his shirt as he stroked my hair. I soon felt my red, puffy eyelids get heavy as I fell into a deep sleep...
