(Discontinued) Danganronpa Hope Glitch

Ch. 1: The Story Begins To Unravel [1] (Daily Life)

Author Note:

How long has it been since I published the Prologue? It feels like that was forever ago.

Nobody understood what was going on. A talking stuffed animal just told us that we were stuck here forever if we didn't kill someone. It doesn't make anymore sense than the idea of aliens building Stone Henge.

I have a feeling that this is one of those 'Just for Laughs' shows where they prank people and tape their reactions on hidden cameras. My mom and I used to watch those shows a lot. We watched a good bit of TV together while I was at her house and I wasn't on the computer.

"Hey! I just realized something." Arlen got everyone attention. "Naomi, remember that time your followers asked to play that one murder mystery video game?"

"Oh yeah! It was the one with a fully male cast, right?" She brought her hand up to the her chin to think.

"Is now really the best time to talk about video games?..." Amari questioned the group. They were giving off a very level headed type atmosphere.

"Is that even a question?" Arlen asked, jokingly. "I could talk about all games Naomi has ever played for hours upon hours—"

"Arlen mentioned that game specifically because it's similar to situation." Naomi cut off her brother and explained it Amari.

"How is this experience you call a 'video game' related to our situation?" Eden questioned the siblings, as she leaned towards everyone.

"Well, the characters were also being put in a killing game." The Streamer told everyone.

"How did the g-game end?... Did they survive?" Pix asked, drawing some kind of relation to the video game Naomi played and our situation.

"Well," Naomi got a little nervous. "Not everyone survived in the end..."

"Aaaaah! We're all gonna die!..." Nash screamed in panic. "And I still haven't gotten married yet..."

"Let me guess, you're also still a virgin?" Prisha snarked, as she laughed at Nash.

"How did you–" The rock singer stopped freaking out and instead blinked a few times in confusion.

"How do we know that this isn't some super fan of the game Naomi talked about, that happens to be apart of IUP, and decided to prank us at opening ceremony?" Suki pointed out.

"That seems a hell of lot more likely than us being left on a deserted island to murder each other," Leo added to the sign language interpreter's statement.

"Though, in the unlikely case this is our new reality," Amari took a deep breath. "We should try to get used to things."

"Is Traveler Amari suggesting that we should explore and look around the place for useful items on our quest?" Ocean questioned Amari.

"Yes," They answered.

"Oh! I know! Let's explore in groups so things will be more fun!" The stone skipper suggested. "I call being partners with Suki!"

"You want to be my partner?..." Suki questioned Hana, surprised someone wanted to be her partner.

"May I suggest that Eden be partners with the demonic surgeon and the sacrifice cake?" Eden asked in really weird manner. I'm pretty sure she was referring to Cho and Leo.

"Please call me Cho-Sunbae," Cho simply said.

"No, I hate you—" Leo tried to refuse Eden's offer but she began dragging him out the door.
