"Gooooood morning everyone! It is now 7am and so night-time is officially over. Let's greet this beautiful day with enthusiasm!" That annoying announcement rung out once more.

I sat up on the bed, rubbing my eye, looks like I was able to sleep for a few hours in the end. I decided to wait in the dorm for a while; I wasn't really hungry for breakfast anyway. After some time had passed, I stood up and just then the intercom rang, I wonder who that could be. Upon opening the door, I saw Kana.

"Oh Kana, what brings you to my dorm?" I asked curiously.

"You didn't arrive to this morning's meeting so I came to check on you; anyway I'm glad you're alright." Kana wore a gentle smile. That's right the meeting, I completely forgot.

"I'm sorry about that, I must have forgotten." I rubbed the back of my head.

Kana's smiled seemed to fade and was exchanged for a more worried one. "Well you weren't the only one not to show up this morning, Yuki-san was also a no show."

"Let's go check on her." I replied, why did I feel so uneased?

We both went to Yuki's dorm and knocked at the door...no answer.

"Yuki-san are you in there?!" Kana called out as she knocked.

"Yuki please answer the door!" I called out too.

All that answered us was a deafening silence. Dread was slowly consuming us both, I have to do something.

"Stand back Kana, I'm going to break the door down."

"Are you even allowed to do that?" Kana asked, her voice sounding concern, as she stepped back.

"There's only one way to find out."

I backed up and barged my shoulder into the door causing the lock to break and what we both saw caused our greatest fears to become reality. The lifeless corpse of the Ultimate Musical Actress lay propped up in the corner of the dorm room. A knife was plunged into her chest with her hand resting upon the handle. Someone who was just alive yesterday was now dead right in front of us, we couldn't, or more like, we didn't want to believe it to be true.

"Kyahhhhh! N-no it can-t be real!" Kana let out a loud scream and placed her hands on the sides of her head as tears started to form.

I stood there in shock and fear; I can't believe someone actually died here.

It didn't take long for the other students to flood to Yuki's dorm and most had the same reactions as Kana and I had. Then a new announcement rang, "A body has been discovered! After a certain amount of time, that ya may use as ya like, the class trial will begin. Also I want ya all to meet in the gym immediately!"

"Who would be so cruel as to do this?" Shiro asked herself in disbelief.

"I wanted us to beat this game without a killing occurring..." Bukuro clenched his fist. "However it looks like we also have no choice but to listen to Monokuma for now."
