Danganronpa Zero Vol. 1

16

There are so many different ways things could end.

Myself, Otonashi Ryouko, and Matsuda Yasuke-kun have decided to leave Hope's Peak Academy. Currently we are waiting in the airport lobby. Together we'll board a plane and plan to go the the land of freedom, the United States of America. Now that I say it, I've finally really realised it. Seeing as I'm with Matsuda-kun, I'm still in my world, I didn't need to stay at Hope's Peak Academy. That's why it doesn't sound like such an unreasonable story. However, if you're worried about my crummy story continuing then please tell someone else about it. We're busy. After we go to America we'll be working in corn fields to develop a new kind of corn, then afterwards we'll be going to NASA in order to move our base of operations to the moon. "Hey, Matsuda-kun!" I say as I eye the seat next to me, Matsuda-kun is busy doing something like rice-planting under his sheets. "Are you sure you can plant corn now? Maybe it's still a bit too early?" I said and then he replied, "Fuck off! I'm burying the saibamen right now!" as he quickly planted the seeds. "It's no good, Matsuda-kun! Nappa said that saibamen don't grow unless there's enough nutrition in the soil!" I said but Matsuda-kun didn't listen as he thump thump thump thump thump thump!

I opened my eyes.

I slowly rose up and looked around. Beige coloured carpet. A small vanity. An empty bookshelf. Everywhere I looked, there were notes saying "This is my room". Seeing as I put all this effort into putting up these notes - I can only assume this is my room. I let out a breath and calmed myself - I didn't have time for this.

Thump, thump, thump, thump.

Someone was pounding at the door to my room.

"I-I'm coming... Wait a moment..."

Thump, thump, thump.

Ka thump, ka thump, ka thump.

Honestly, they've never heard of patience, their knocks became more rhythmic and annoying, I crawled off my bed - I noticed I had been wearing my shoes while I was sleeping.

Calm down, calm down - I thought as I ripped off my shoes, it was way too late for this, I grabbed my notebook from my bedside table and rushed over to the door.

"... Who is it?"

I took out the key and cautiously opened the door slightly.

"YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!"

I spotted through the gap a girl with blonde hair wearing flashy make up.

"Uwaah!" Surprised I unintentionally stepped back.

"Hey, hey, are you always sleeping? You know it's already noon, right? You're like Piiko's counterpart!" (Osugi and Piiko are well known openly gay talents in Japan)

"... Huh?"

"... No, wait, I meant Osugi. Anyway you sleep too much... That's why you're having trouble keeping up with what I'm saying!"

Somehow she managed to keep this conversation going by herself, just who was this girl, I opened my notebook-

"Oh dear, you forgot me? Fine, I'll tell you myself, I'm Enoshima Junko-chan! 'Super High School Level Fashion Girl' Enoshima Junko-chaaaan!"

Enoshima Junko - I looked through my notebook for any memories of her. Quickly an alarm started to ring out in my head. She was the egotistical, self-proclaimed 'murderer', the only girl I was supposed to never have anything to do under any circumstances!

"G-GO AWAAAAAAAAAAAY!" I shouted as I tried to close the door. But like one of those annoying salesmen, she slammed her foot in the door stopping it from being closed.
