Rantaros POV
I flipped whatever grabbed me over my shoulder. It was the man. He hit the floor with a thud and Tenko rushed him.
I however turned back to Shuichi. I lightly slapped his cheek. "Shuichi wake up" I stated a tiny hint of worry filling my voice.
He wasn't responding to it by waking up, but by moving his fingers. I picked him up with one arm under his back the other under his legs. I couldn't move him on my back without disturbing his arm.
Running out with Kiibo we made our way to the ladder. When we got there I wrapped an arm around Shuichi's waist and somehow made it up the ladder. When we got to the top kokichi who was waiting for us checked Shuichi for any noticeable injuries.
He came to the conclusion that the man probably drugged him after cutting his arm. I sighed before picking him up again and following kokichi back to Shuichi room.
Kokichi had said that it would be best to stitch up his wound when he's already here so we didn't have to move him again and possibly irritate the wound.
Shuichi's POV
My eyes opened scanning the room. I saw my ceiling. Sighing at the fact I was out of there I looked over at my arm. It was tightly wrapped in a white bandage. It hurt to move my fingers so I wasn't about to try and move the whole arm.
Closing my eyes and grumbling I got out of bed. I heard talking from outside so I walked my way to the door. Opening it I saw Kokichi, Kiibo, Rantaro, and... luca. Rantaro and Luca seemed like they were arguing and Kiibo was trying to break it up.
The door must have made noise because they went quite. "Hey Shuichi lets get you something to eat" kokichi said quickly and grabbed my non injured arm. He pulled me down the corridor fast and when we turned the corner he stopped.
"Luca isn't very happy that we 'kidnapped his mans'" Kokichi sighed. I laughed a bit "yeah I didn't enjoy him calling me 'his mans'" I responded. Kokichi laughed a bit before we heard Luca yelling and decided it was time to leave.
"Well I found out why Luca thinks your his 'mans'. It's because Monokuma is corrupting their memories before they wake up." Kokichi explained to me. I nodded "hope your arm is ok... I had to stitch it up while you were out so I wouldn't have to risk giving you another pain medication as you are still sick and I didn't want to test it" kokichi rambled while I just followed him.
It took about 5 minutes of us talking to realize we were being followed... well more like watched. It was creepy. Glowing purple eyes we're starring from a corner of the room. "Oh yeah somebody else woke up when you were asleep!" Kokichi exclaimed ripping us out of the silence.
We had reached the door now. "Really who?" I asked as kokichi held the door open for me.... or no that's not kokichi. Kokichi was standing next to a tall girl with purple hair. "This is Cathrine."kokichi introduces. Cathrine nods at me while kokichi drags me to a seat at the table. When he was sure I was fine he walked into the kitchen.
Cathrine trailed after him like a lost puppy. I sighed 'bet Cathrine thinks kokichi is somebody important to her' I thought before closing my eyes.
I opened my eyes when I heard the kitchen door open. "No it's alright I've got this" a female voice came from behind me. A meal alright came from kokichi. A plate was set infront of me. "I guess I should tell you Cathrines talent. She is the actual Ultimate childcare giver." Kokichi stated to me as he sat down next to me.
I then realized the dynamic between the two. 'Oh she treats him as if he is a child' the thought was a funny one but it made sense. I mean everyone's memories made sense with their talent. That's why Luca thought I was his boyfriend.... I think.
The door opened and three other people joined our group. The one that unsettled me the most was Luca, but thankfully Rantaro sat next to me forcing Luca next to him.
"I see you've met Cathrine" Kiibo state's from behind me. I nodded and it went back to the quite from before. Until a chair flew back and there was a slight scuffle.
When everything wasn't going in hyper speed. I saw Cathrine holding a hand to push Luca away from infront of me. "Running with swords and kidnapping the injured isn't a safe thing to do dear" Cathrine said to Luca who was currently on the floor.
"But they are going to hurt my beloved" "What did I say" Cathrine stayed to the blubbering Luca ikon the floor. The voice was chilling and more forceful than Maki and buyakuya. "Y-yes ma'am!" Luca screeched before getting up and fast walking out of there.
"Rowdy children" Cathrine muttered picking up Lucas fallen chair off the floor.
Nagitos POV
I was walking with Hajime to make sure we don't have any more problems with the new people. It was really awkward earlier where some dude told me he liked my 'pretty eyes', and then gave me two black eyes.
Either he has a very messed up way of flirting or... I'm just hopelessly romantic. "You okay?" Hajime asked and I snapped back to reality. "Oh yeah just thinking about earlier" I said. "I hated how that man flirted with you then beat you to a pulp" "yeah.. but if it was a stepping stone for his hope to shine then I'm glad to be a help~" I went from sad to a blushing face within seconds.
"Your still obsessed with hope huh?" Hajime started and I hid my face in my hands. "I'll take that as a yes"
