Dork Diaries: DORKANRONPA - Part 2

WHERE AM I?:

Wh-Where am I?

Oh that's right... I'm dead... I was just killed by Chase in this cruel killing game. All because I didn't want to make a choice.

But could you really blame me? Nobody could make that choice, it's just ludicrous.

I have eternity to repent for it, in the void of nothingness. Deletion awaits me.

???: "No, not yet."

I heard a voice, a calming voice. One that would always make me feel better in my time of need. A voice that I thought that I would never hear again. No... It's just my imagination. There is no way that SHE can be here, she died. I saw her die right in front of me in the most barbaric way possible.

???: "That may be true. But I want to talk to you."

That voice, again...I-It couldn't be...

BRANDON: "Nikki...is that you?"

NIKKI: "Yes Brandon, it's me."

BRANDON: "But you should already be dead right now. Or are you just my memory of Nikki?"

NIKKI: "I'm not sure..."

BRANDON: "I thought that I would never see you again, the thoughts of that just eat away at me every day since you died."

NIKKI: "It's okay Brandon, I'm here now. There is no need to worry."

BRANDON: "Hey... Don't you think it's ludicrous?"

NIKKI: "Hm?"

BRANDON: "Chase gave us the option. Don't you think it's ludicrous... Saving the world that was so cruel to me by sacrificing the only people who ever loved me..."

NIKKI: "..."

BRANDON: "I can't make this choice. I'm just tired, so SICK AND TIRED! Getting caught up in all of this... simulations, futures, kids, fake memories, robotic bears, masterminds. Nothing makes sense anymore."

NIKKI: "I see..."

BRANDON: "Oh well, it doesn't matter... I guess what I always said to myself was true. I'm just a weak, pathetic human being that can't save anyone or anything. I'm just destined to destroy things, to let people down. To be a failure..."

NIKKI: "No, you aren't!"

BRANDON: "I am... And if we did save the cruel world. That would mean that we would have to sacrifice you. And there is no way that I would ever hurt you Nikki. And I know that since your consciousness would remain deleted... You would be an empty shell. There is no way that you would want that either, right?"

NIKKI: "Brandon... It won't hurt me, or anyone else here for that matter."

BRANDON: "Huh? But I want you to always be by my side Nikki... I don't ever want to forget you..."

NIKKI: "I will always be by your side Brandon. Always until the end of time."

BRANDON: "But the despair of sacrificing you... Who am I going to endure such despair for? People who I have never even met?"

NIKKI: "There is still a piece of me left in the world..."

BRANDON: "Huh? Are you talking about...?"

NIKKI: "Renée Roberts, our daughter. In this state of mind you have never met her. But I'll tell you now that she is exactly just like me in every way. She looks like me, talks like me and even shares the same talents as me."

BRANDON: "She sounds just as amazing as her mother. I love her already."

NIKKI: "Heehee, Brandon the father."

BRANDON: "And Nikki the mother."

NIKKI: "Exactly, but I want you to know that your sacrifice to save the world will not be in vain. You don't have to sacrifice us for nothing... For granting you an opportunity to save the world is what makes our sacrifice worth it."

BRANDON: "Are you sure about this?"

NIKKI: "I am sure. To keep the rest of you living your lives, to end this killing game and to protect our children in the real world. That is why we all want you to choose sacrifice."

BRANDON: "I just... I don't think I'm the right person to make this choice."

NIKKI: "No Brandon, you're the only one who can."

BRANDON: "But I'm dead... I can't go back now."

NIKKI: "Just remember, this is a simulation. The laws of physics shouldn't apply here, and with this simulation focusing MN around despair... Enough hope should break the cycle and bring you back to life."

BRANDON: "Is such a thing even possible? I'm just an 'ultimate photographer' anyone with an expensive camera can do what I do."

NIKKI: "You're not just an 'Ultimate Photographer'. You should have the ability with enough willpower to possess a new talent too."

BRANDON: "A new talent?"

NIKKI: "Yes, and now it's time for you to go back and show them your newfound talent Brandon. If you get the time to, tell everyone I said hi. If you always yearn for hope and push forward towards a brighter future... then I will never disappear. And just remember... I will always love you."

BRANDON: "I will always love you too... Goodbye Nikki..."
