"You must kill someone if you want to leave." My mind froze and my breath caught in my throat as I thought about that... I could feel a paralyzing fear slowly making its way through my body, dominating every last nerve. The air hung heavy on me, pressing down like a weight around my neck. It took everything I had just to endure that weight...
But for as heavy as the air felt... all it took to pierce it was her sharp words.
Raina: "So? What are you going to do now? Just stand around glaring at each other? Her pointed comment was directed at everyone in the room. It helped pull us back to reality."
Eclipse: "R-Right... She's right!"
Eclipse: "Sometimes, even if you're nervous or afraid, you just have to step forward!"
Eclipse: "To forget such a simple fact... I can't forgive myself. I'm so ashamed! Please, someone hit me! I can't forgive myself! Somebody hit me! Punish me!"
Akira: "Jesus. If you have time to yell about it, you have time to DO something about it."
Luna: "Perhaps, but...what is the mission, exactly?"
Rin: "Idiot! To look for a way out, duh!"
Coral: "And we totally need to find out whoever was controlling that stupid bear and beat the hell out of 'em."
Katie: "...B-But before we do all that, maybe we should take a look at the handbook... It's probably best to check out the school regulations Monokuma mentioned before doing anything else."
Akari: "True. If we stumble around with no clue what the rules are, something like that might happen again..."
Akira: "Shit..."
Coral: "Fine. Then let's hurry up and check out the stupid rules already."
After turning on my e-Handbook, the first thing that appeared was my name. So just like Monokuma said, the owner's name showed up front and center. Then, from the Main Menu that popped up, I selected the School Regulations icon.
An itemized list appears on-screen. It was the school regulations. In other words, the rules being imposed on us all.
