Haunted Shadows- A Danganronpa V3 Post-Game AU

!!Spoilers for all of DRV3!!
It's probably recommended you've played DRV3 or at least are aware of the entire game's events before reading this.

It's been a year since the game show Danganronpa finally came to a close in its fifty-third season, and the outside world has forgotten all about the once beloved franchise. However, the survivors from the finale, Shuichi Saihara, Maki Harukawa, and Himiko Yumeno, even after all this time, can't let those past memories and feelings go of what happened within the game. Regardless of what they try, their past keeps coming back to haunt them.
They decide that the only way for them to finally find peace with themselves is if they return back to the academy to investigate, for the sake of their passed friends.
However, upon returning, the three discover odd things. Things being moved around without warning, the sounds of muffled whispers surrounding them, the feeling that someone's behind you when no one is, as well as getting intense visions that distort reality, seeing unwanted past memories and feeling like you're trapped in a nightmare.
The school's being haunted by their dead classmates. Their souls still trapped within the school's halls, even one year later.
Moving on takes time, but just how much time is enough?

Note-
Just a fun AU I decided to write about with my friend. It's more of a project I made solely for passion and in general, fun with this friend I have.
I'm still practicing being a writer so I'm sorry if this has any grammar errors.

This AU is mixed with a similar fandom/game called "Ace Attorney," which while it isn't the main focus, it's heavily involved within the "outside world" sections of this.

I do not own any of these characters! This is merely just a spin on the original stories in order to expand them for my own personal fun.
Danganronpa is created by Kazutaka Kodaka and developed by Spike Chunsoft.
Ace Attorney is created by Shu Takami and developed by Capcom.
