DANGANRONPA 3 IF

Chapter I

Hey there! I think now is the proper time to introduce myself! I'm the Narrator! Don't worry, I'm not Junko, she is over with narration. So from now on, when you see something written in italic, you'll know it's me! Alright, so I just wanted to clear some points with you. First, before you read any further, I STRONGLY recommend that you go and play Danganronpa: Happy Trigger Havoc and that you speak at least 3 times with Junko during the free-time events AND that you also play Danganronpa 2. If you already have played those two games, great! You can move to the next point!

Second, if you wanna understand anything in this story, you must have watched the Despair Arc of Danganronpa 3. I also recommend that you read the light novel Danganronpa IF in the Extras menu in Danganronpa 2. You can also find this novel online (there's even a version here on Wattpad). If you already did watch/read them, you're awesome!

Third, you may have noticed already but the writer behind this story doesn't call the characters by their last name and doesn't use honorific titles such as chan, kun, san or that kind of crap. Those make the story a lot heavier and not fun to read (sorry all anime fans, maybe you guys can be friends in another life). He also bases his work on the English versions of the games, because that's how he played them (for example, he will use the word "Ultimate" and not "Super High School level"). Also, the writer doesn't speak English as his first language so he told me that he's very sorry if basic grammatical mistakes are left in the story...

Anyway, I'll try to be quiet for most of the story but I shall appear when I gotta speak to you. If you are still reading, I guess that you read the instructions first or that you simply don't care at all about my warnings (if so, I'm tellin' ya, you won't enjoy the story as much as you should), so I'll let you enjoy the story now.

My name is Mukuro Ikusaba and this is my first year at Hope's Peak High School. To attend this school, there's two requirements. First, you have to be already attending High school. Second, you have to be the very best at what you do. For instance, I'm the Ultimate Soldier. I came here with my twin little sister, Junko Enoshima, the Ultimate Fashionista. 

Junko is the only person in my life. I love her so much! I would do anything for her, like kill, torture, mutilate myself, etc. I don't mind if it's for her! I'm like a different person when I'm with Junko. I tend to be an introvert with other people, (simply put, I don't care about them at all) but when I'm with my little sis, the only thing I can feel is happiness, almost like bliss. Even if she doesn't show it, I know that I mean a lot to her! Together, we form the Ultimate Despair Sisters!

That's right, our plan is to plunge the world into Despair! Well, actually, this is more like Junko's plan. I just ride along because if this is Junko's way of doing things, this is my way too! Why does she want to do that, you may ask? Well, to be brief, Junko as been bored from the day she was born. The only thing that she actually enjoy is Despair. So her idea of bringing Despair to the world is just for f-

"Hey bitch, snap out of it, will ya?" said Junko while slapping me on the cheek. "The opening ceremony is finished! Why are just sitting here with that ugly look of yours?"

We were sitting in the gym with all the new students. People were beginning to leave to go to their class and meet their new classmates, I think.  

I looked at her with an embarrassed face and said, "Sorry, Junko. I was just lost in my thoughts."

"I didn't know your brainless head could actually think," she answered. "Anyway, we gotta go our class to meet our new classmates full o,f hope! Seems that we are part of the 78th class."

"You seem more excited than usual, Junko." I said.

"Well of course I am! Just imagine how much Despair it will bring to see their lives crumble if we know all their dreams! Man I can't waiiiit!"

We left the gym and went to our class. I was about to open the door when suddenly Junko pushed me and slammed the door open. With a triumphant tone she said, "HIIIIII EVERYONE!!! JUNKO ENOSHIMA IS IN THE PLAAAACE!" Everyone stopped talking and looked at her. "Nice to meetcha!" she continued.

"What an indecent way of introducing yourself," said a visibly arrogant guy with blonde hair and a tuxedo. "To interrupt me while I was spea-"

"Hellooooo Miss Enoshima! Nice to meet ya," said a very fat guy with a weird mouth who just rushed toward her. He bowed and said, "I'm Hifumi Yamada, Ultimate Fanfic Creator, at your service."

Junko ignored him and walked elegantly toward the other students. I was just watching her, still lying on the ground. Aw Junko, did you wanted me to feel Despair by pushing me?

"Hey, are you alright?"

I looked up and saw a boy standing right in front of me. He had spiky hair and light hazel eyes. He was smiling. He reached his hand to me and said, "Need help?" I looked at him for a few seconds and I reached for his hand. "I'm Makoto Naegi," he said, "I'm the Ultimate Lucky Student. What's your name?"

I literally froze in place. I really didn't thought I would have a discussion with someone other than my sister today. I had to think really fast. I answered, "I-I'm M-Mukuro Ikusaba, Ultimate S-Soldier." 

"Well nice to meet you!" said Makoto in a joyful manner. "Hey, didn't we see each other at the main entrance this morning?"

"Hu-Hummm M-Maybe?" I answered. I had no idea what to say, I remembered him but I was so nervous to fuck-up something that I just stuttered anything that came to my mind the fastest.

"Anyway," he said, "I hope we can be friends, Mukuro." He was still smiling! I was blushing so much that I thought I was gonna explode! "Are you feeling alright? your face is all red..."

"Ah! Hum, y-yes, I'm alright," I blurted, "Hum, I-I'm just r-really hot!" 

Did I really just say that?

"Oh, okay..." he responded, "I think we should go meet the others now. Well, see you around, Mukuro!" He waved at me and went into the class. 

I stood there looking at him for a few second. What a weird conversation...

"Hey sis, you commin' in or what?" yelled Junko, "Are you gonna stand there all day? Come on meet your classmates!" She really was in her character of a being a normal but loud high school girl.

I spend the rest of the day with Junko, barely saying anything. I was still shocked by the conversation I had with Makoto. He must think I'm a total loser after how I reacted. This truly fills me with Despair... 

At the end of the day, Junko and me went back to our new dorms for the night. I was laying on my bed and I realized something...

Today was actually the first day someone smiled at me.
