"I guess not knowing someone
doesn't mean you don't
understand them."

Monokuma cleared his voice before continuing with the rules of the killing game. I couldn't pay attention to anything other than what monokuma last said. 'I could've died...I only have 5 lifes and i almost used up one of them by checking out the inside of a fucking Exile...

Monokuma finished everything off with he may add new regulation to this list at any time

"You've gotta be kidding me..." Kaede breathed out. "I will never...I will never participate in a killing game."

'Whos going to tell her...'

"The ultimate academy for gifted juveniles school regulations...so these are the rules" Ryoma sighed.

"I do not understand why someone would force us to do this?" Kirumi answers him.

"But the rules are pretty cut and dry. This game doesn't seem like it'll be boring" Kokichi giggled.

"That's not the problem!" Tenko snapped.

"Please lower your voice. Its ruining the atmosphere" Korekiyo scolded the two smaller kids.

"Hey hey! What does this sith regulation mean?" Angie started, everyone looked back at their monopod. "The killing game and clastrials will continue until only two surviving students remain. Only two surviving students? What would be the reason for that?"

"Perhaps it's because you can't do a trial with two people?" Shuichi answered.

"Nyahahaha, I see, I see, You're so smart, shuichi."

"Q-Quit screwing around...Killing game...school regulations.." Kaito stuttered. "To hell with all that crap! Who'd go along with something like that?!"

"Kaito no!" I cried out and jumped out of gontas grasp. He threw the Monopod on the ground and I jumped to save it. The tablet landed softly in my hands jumbling around a bit.

My knee made contact with the ground harshly and I scraped myself. I hissed bringing my hands up to my knee. 'I didn't know i could feel pain here too..'

"Woah, hey now, don't do that!" Rantaro rushed over to us. He slowly helped me up and handed the Monopod back to Kaito "School rules say you can't break it."

Maki scolded him, "If you violate the rules, then the Exisals will dispose of you."

"I don't care about the rules! No way i'm going to play this messed up game!"

"If youre not going to play then dont do anything stupid that might get you in trouble or cost you your life!" I argued.

"I don't care, and what about you?! You injured your knee for this stupid monopad!"

I shouted back "I don't care about my life! I just don't want to see any of you die!"

The room went quiet.

"You should care more about your life..." Kaito mumbled but put the Monopod back in some sort of hidden compartment. I grinned at him but he looked away upset.

'Sometimes you gotta put them in their place.'

"Y/n is somewhat right, this isn't about 'playing' the game. It's too dangerous to disobey him now." Rantaro slowly spoke.

"Forget about him! It just means one less dumbass for the world to deal with!" Miu snarled.

"Hey! Who are you calling a dumbass?!"

"HEY!" KAede screamed out at everyone. "Quit fighting already!"

"Whoa! Wh-What the--?!"

"We shouldn't be fighting amongst ourselves. Right now, we need to work together. Honestly...I'd probably be more inspiring if i played a song then gave a speech Chopin'gs 'Military Polonaise' would definitely help unite us"

"You sure do love that piece don't you?" I joked.

She eagerly nodded her head at me, "one of my favorites! Anyways,...why don't we work together and search for an exit one more time?

"But..we looked all over that wall and there wasn't a single hole." Tsumugi stated.

"Now wait just a second. If there's no opening in the wall...then how did we get inside these walls in the first place?" K1-B0 asked.

"....oh, good point." Tsumugi better watch what she says before she accidentally gives herself away as the mastermind.

"That means there must be an opening somewhere! We just have to find it! Whoever trapped us here wants us to fight each other.." Kaede pondered"..so let's show 'em that we're not gonna let that happen! We're not gonna fight each other! We're gonna work together! Okay!?"

"Hell yeah!" I screamed after her with my hand in the air. Kaede raised her and in a fist too.

"You made your case with such succinct aplomb that we've been rendered speechless...other then Y/N."

"Heh...i was going to say the same thing, but you beat me to it..." Kaito agreed with Kirumi "You're right!"

"Let's split up and try to find the exit! Oh Atua give us strength!"

"I must admit, i admire your spirit!" Rantaro gave us a thumbs up.

"Oh wait! Gonta found a manhole earlier. In the grass, behind the school building."

"Gonta that's amazing!" I praised the tall man.

"A manhole?"

"Gonta peek in. See big, underground passage. Think maybe it exists..." Gonta answered the blond.

"Y-You gotta mention important stuff like that much faster!" Tenko scolded him.

"Gontapeekin!Seebi Underground Pass--"

"Gonta! Slow down! We heard you the first time loud and clear, you did good. Do you think you can show us where it is?" i cut off the dark green man, he was going to pass out if he continued to talk like that...

"Okay! Everyone, follow Gonta!"

We all eagerly excited the gymnasium. Rantaro stopped to compliment Kaede on their speech. Shuichi looked like a third wheel so I softly took his hand and pulled him with the rest of the group. Even if it were for a short period of time, Kaede and Rantaro were a pretty nice duo...Maybe if she hadn't killed him they all would have gotten closer.

Shuichi gripped my hand and we rushed ahead. We rushed ahead to the red door. Gonta opened the door and we all piled in.

    "Looks like were all here. So, wheres this manhole?" Rantaro asked.

     "Ummm..." Gonta looked around eagerly, "Over there, in grass."

     "An important hole near some bush!? Sounds familiar, am i right ladies!" Miu laughed. 'Somehow i never understood that joke.'

       "Awww, this manhole cover looks heavy. Can we even lift it?" Angie winned.

      Keebo grunted as he tried to move it "How embarrassing. It wont even budge."

     "And you wanted to carry my bag a couple of moments ago." I teased the robot. He sulked as he told everyone why he was so weak. I wanted to see how heavy the cover actually was, we never got to try it out in the game. I bent down and tried with all my might to pull at it, nothing.

      "Um...Now im just plain curious about what happened during that trial." Tsumugi questioned with her hand on her cheeks.

      "Allow Gonta, Y/N! Gonta lift cover before to peek inside. Should be able to pick up cover too.

     "Go ham." I stepped back and allowed the 6'6 man to easily beast at the manhole.

     "Upsy-daisy." Gonta said. 'I forgot how scary Gonta can be sometimes...

    "So Easily!?" Tsumugi screamed.

      "His strength....must be due to my magic. Yup...theres no mistaking it" Himiko grunted. Tenko complimented the smaller redhead. Gonta asked where he should dispose of the cover and Kirumi told himm to throw it anywhere as long as he didnt hit anyone...

    yare yare, how long can these dialogs go on for? I really need monokuma to give me a 'skip' option...

     "Th-this place is kinda creepy...we're really going in here?" Tsumugi asked.

     "Im sure its fine. At the very least, we definitely wont die down there" Kaito grinned

     "If anything happens, i'll protect most of you! But the degenerate males are on their own!"

      "Then...Gonta protect menfolk!"

      "Awfully quiet...Where are Monokuma and the Monokubs?" Rantaro asked.

     "I was certain they would show up at some point and crush us like rotten gnats..." Korekiyo agreed with Rantaro.

       "Nyahahaha! They probably havent noticed yet!" Angie cupped her hands together. Slowly we headed down the manhole one by one. Once we all had climbed down the ladder, we looked around and there was an open area.

       "It's more spacious then i thought it'd be" Ryoma spoke.

     "YODELAY-HEE-HOOOOO!"

     Maki ignored Kokichis annoying outburst. "What is this place...?"

     They all discussed on the area and how the area was weird... Im guessing this is the time we play the stupid game of risking our lifes. I don't know if im actually going to die or not.....I really hope that this doesn't count as one of my lifes gone...

      "No need to worry! It looks a bit dangerous, but we're all Ultimates here!" Kaede started her speech. " As long as we work together, everything will work out fine!"

      "Y-yeah..right." Shuichi stuttered.

     "That's exactly what i was talking about! We're really on the same wavelength, Kaede!" Kaito complemented the blond. "Gimme a hug!"

     "Umm.. no." 'pussy slayer 5000 shut down once again.'

      Tenko unleashed her anger onto Kaito, calling him a degenerate male and whatnot. Kaede reassured the green haired girl that it was alright. We walked into the tunnel before time slowed down again. Text popped up in front of me.
