Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc

Prologue: Welcome to Despair Pt. 3

I go to the first person that catches my eye, which was the boy in white. Ugh. Might as well get the annoying ones out of the way first.

"My name is Kiyotaka Ishimaru. I believe in bold simplicity. Let's work together on our educational crusade!"

Good thing I did some research on these guys before coming here. I don't want to go through the trouble of asking them what their talents are.

This guy is the Ultimate Moral Compass. A goodie-two-shoes. Just fantastic. He went to some fancy private school and was a perfect honor's student the entire time going there. I think he did some stuff in his community's Public Morals Committee. Respecting rules before anything else which gives him the oh-so perfect title. Gross.

"You can call me Taka. What is your name?"

"Lore. Lore Akiara."

He laughed wholeheartedly, "A wonderful name! You should thank your parents for such an excellent name! And you must devote yourself every single day to keep that name from losing its value! Life is worth putting every ounce of effort into it!"

Oh yeah. This guy *really* pisses me off. If I end up doing some crazy stunt, I'm making him do it with me.

The next person that caught my interest was a girl with long braids and terrible posture. I have a feeling I won't like her either.

"N-Not that you'll remember my n-name anyway, but... I'm T-Toko... Toko Fukawa."

Toko Fukawa. That's right. She's known as the Ultimate Writing Prodigy. She wrote a novel when she was ten. Then she wrote another one which I forgot the title of. But I know it's a romance novel. That one made fishermen extremely popular with the ladies from what I could tell. She won lots of literary prizes and her books were instant best-sellers. Numbers don't lie. At least, from my experience.

"H-Hey. It's rude to s-stare, you know. Stop staring at me l-like that! I know you think I'm some filthy b-beast compared to you, you b-big-bosomed weirdo!"

There it is. That's what I was expecting. I figured she'd be one of *those* people. Her inferiority complex wasn't the only thing that was annoying. It was her remarks.

Huh...? H-Hey! My chest isn't *that* big! But I can't help feeling bad for her for some reason. Eh, I'll take my time with that one. I've got more important things to worry about.

The next person I went to was the girl who suggested that we introduce ourselves. I was hesitant at first, because of the aura she had around her. Especially that smile. She is *not* to be trusted.

"Hi, I'm Sayaka Maizono. I look forward to getting to know you!"

Sayaka Maizono. She's known as the Ultimate Pop Sensation. She's in a famous all-girl pop group and she's their lead singer. When I look at her, I don't see a human being. All I see is a life-sized doll. It's really creepy.

"I'm not a doll! I've alive, you know!" she giggled.

"What are you? Psychic or something?"

She gasped, "Was it that obvious?"

...Is this girl serious right now?

"Kidding! I just have really good intuition!"

She's sharp. Gives me even more reason not to like her even more. Well, she's going to be in my next act after the goodie-two-shoes.

To my right was a guy with a goatee. He seems either like a chill guy or just really intense and is extremely good at hiding it. Wait. Is there such thing? I'm not so sure.
