"She did what?!" Nekomaru yelled out.

Everyone looked around at each other in complete shock at what Akane had done.

"Challenging Monokuma?! Why?!" You thought to yourself. "That's crazy!"

Monomi spoke up once more.

"S...She's in tewwible danger... You have to do something... You have to wescue her!"

Chiaki sighed.

"It looks like my bad feeling... was right on the money."

Nekomaru pounds his fist on the wall.

"THAT FOOOOL!!" He says screaming. "No... It's not her... I'm the fool. I should never have let her leave my sight! Ku... A coach should keep track of their trainee, even during their private time...This mess is turning out to be Nekomaru Nidai's greatest failure!!"

"S...Save the regrets for later." Sonia assures him. "We have to hurry!"

Coach Nekomaru balls his fists and screams again.

"OF COURSE! We just got Kuzuryuu back... If we lose someone else now...I will not let that happen!! NEVEEEEEEEEEER!!"

In a rage of fit, Nekomaru throws open the doors of the Titty Typhoon and runs out of the building.

"At the Beach Nidai-kun!!! They're at the beach!" Monomi shouts out to him and hurriedly runs after him to make sure he's okay.

Soon enough, a whole crowd of you students were running down to the beach following Nekomaru and Monomi.

"Owari-San!" You shout at her in concern.

Monokuma laughs.

"Looks like you've just barely managed to avoid being lethally wounded..." he says and points at her. "You're every bit as nimble as reputed!
But seriously though, did you challenge me just to show off your dodging ability?" He asks in a sarcastic tone.

"Y...You bastard...! Akane spits out. "Why? Why aren't my attacks even leaving a scratch?!"

Monokuma smiles widely.

"Well, you see..." he begins his explanation. "We're from different dimensions, you and I. Our worldviews are completely different. It's like a character from a crime comic trying to defeat a superhero. Upupu. Why even bother?"

"Not even a scratch?" Kazuichi unfathoms from the sidelines. "Seriously? We're talkin' Owari attackin' a stuffed doll here!"

Nekomaru balls his fist and looks down at the ground mad.

"Monokuma's an advanced piece of machinery. If he's been designed for battle, he must have considerable strength..." he told him. "Still... If you ignore everything else, Owari is the fastest athlete I've ever seen! Such fast attacks not leaving even a scratch? Is that even possible?"

Nagito smiles and puts his hand up.

"Apparently, it is. It's happening right before our eyes, is it not?" He stops smiling and looks down sadly at the sand beneath his feet. "And the way things are, there's nothing we can do about it." Komaeda smiles again. But it's not all bad... We'll be able to overcome the despair of Owari's death and use it to feed our growing hope, at least....Just like Kuzuryuu-kun did."

"Shut the fuck up!" Fuyuhiko shoots back at him. "I...I don't think that way anymore...If risking my own life is what it takes to stop it, then I..."

Mikan interrupts.

"Y...You can't! In your condition, if you exert yourself even a little more, you really will die!" She says in concern but Fuyuhiko resists.

"I only have this life because Peko gave it to me... No one's going to miss it...!" He refutes

Nekomaru growls then screams.

"YOU FOOL!" He yells at him. "That's exactly why you should cherish it!"

Fuyuhiko stops and looks at him in shock.

"...What?"

Nekomaru cracks his knuckles.

"Step aside...! It's my turn now...!" He says taking a step forward. "It's time for Nekomaru Nidai's final fireworks show! I'll show you how it's done!"

"Upupupupup!" Monokuma laughs maniacally as always. "Looks like we've attracted some bystanders... oh well. Let's just get this over with!" He says as his arm turns into a literal bazooka blaster. "I told you bastards I won't allow any rule breaking, didn't I? This will serve as a fine example!Poof, and you're gone!"

Suddenly, Nekomaru jumps in front of Akane just as Monokuma shoots and...

All there was was white...nothing but the color white and the ringing in all of your healthy pubescent ears. Then...

"Ah... Ah...N...Nidai!!" Akane screamed.

You all rubbed your eyes trying to see what was happening when it finally came into full view. Nekomaru laying in the beach sand with blood dripping down his head and a good sized hole in his chest. You all gasp at the site as Akane site next to him looking down at his body in shock.

"N...Nidai... Why did you... s...save me...?" Akane asks still in pure shock.

He chuckles and smiles.

        "Ku... Do you even have to ask...?
Supporting the athlete... is the very meaning of being a coach...A...And yet...H...How pitiful... This is how Nekomaru Nidai... goes down...?
...Just... one mere bazooka blast...? Shameful, isn't it? Ha... ha ha..."

Akane begins to cry and hugs Nekomaru's body.

      "H...Hold on! Nidai!" She shouts and Nekomaru puts his hand on her back.

He coughs continuing to smile.

      "Owari... The few days I spent with you...T...They were... pretty good...Don't... die... Owari..."

Akane's eyes widened even more as tears flowed down her face.

     "N...NIDAIIIIIIIIII" she screamed.
