Terror Infinity Side B

Chapter 21, Dangan Ronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls

Shin after the battle within Towa Sewers where he faced off against his brainwashed former comrades, Connor and Kisara now Sniper Monokuma and Samurai Monokuma, he returned to the Resistance Base and discovered two things. The first were the number of casualties and injured adults lying on the floor of the base. Due to Shin's absence that last hour of battle multiple Monokuma flooded into the base and wreaked havoc on the populace, yet from what he could tell it wasn't that bad. Compared to the sea of blood and corpses from scenes of the original game after the enemy raid there were far less casualties due to the interference of Shin, Komaru, Drake, and Sachi.

Shin: (As for the other thing... Well, it's best to play along.)

Thinking so Shin raised his two arms in a gesture of surrender as countless adults armed with makeshift weapons who surrounded both him and his comrades not too far away. Komaru looked scared, but more so confused by the action of the adults, but knowing the plot like he did Shin was not disturbed and didn't bother to listen as the Resistance Leader Haiji began to explain his reasoning for his actions. Haiji blamed Komaru and her group for the death of the adults. Haiji said that their group who kept coming and going out as they pleased were to blame for bringing attention to themselves and leading the Monokuma to their once secret base within Towa Sewers. His reasoning was that he took strict measures to make sure that no the kids and Monokuma never discovered them and told everyone not to go out for whatever reason. Haiji then even went as far as to say that Shin and the others were actually allies of the kids and were just playing both sides for the most gain.

This was actually partially true as Nagisa Shingetsu, the Sage of the Warriors of Hope had followed Komaru and her group to the secret base even within the original plot, but Shin couldn't help but laugh at Haiji and the pitiful adults of the Resistance. Monaca Towa from the beginning probably knew where the adults were hiding, yet let them live till now so they would become Komaru's allies later on. They were all tools to be used and discarded, yet not knowing all of this the adults continued to blame Shin, Komaru, and the others who had saved them. They themselves didn't have the power or conviction to stand up for themselves, yet they mustered their anger for the sake punishing their saviors.

Shin: "Haha! How hilarious.... but it really isn't funny in a way. Just pathetic."

Haiji: "What was that!? Anyways we can't trust you people. We won't kill you, but we'll keep you all locked up for now. Hey, lock them up!"

Komaru: "Hey, wait!"

Haiji then called over for a group of adults to restrain and take Shin and Komaru's group. They closed in and were about to take their group's weapons like in the original plot, yet they hesitated. Shin, Drake, and Sachi released a murderous killing intent as the adults approached. For those who dared to take a step forward a wave of killing intent greater than anything they've experienced to date washed over them. The adults feared that they were about to be killed, yet to their surprise they all peaceful followed them to their cells. The adults didn't know why they didn't resist, yet it left mixed feelings seeing as Shin's group was just playing along with them. They were happy that they obeyed, but realizing that they could escape and leave whenever they chose fit to... made them feel as helpless as they felt when facing the Warriors of Hope and the Monokuma. Maybe even worse.

Komaru: "...*SOBBING*... *SOBBING*... SOBBING*..."

Komaru locked within her cell couldn't help but cry at the situation she found herself in. She recalled the events earlier of that day and found logic within Haiji's accusations. Although she alone didn't make the decision to return to the Resistance Base, but she felt the strongest about it after her failed attempt to call for help from Future Foundation. She had only wanted to rely on the people there, yet she ended up bringing trouble to the adults as well as her friends Shin, Drake, and Sachi. She has been putting more effort to try take action, yet she never once thought about saving others or having the power to save others. Komaru couldn't help but regret that if she had things may have turned out different.

Komaru: "*SOBBING*... *SOBBING*... Maybe I should talk things out with the others. Luckily before we were separated Shin handed one of those phones to me. I wonder if the others are asleep? Should wait for morning to call-"

Kotoko: " Sneak sneak♪ Sneakity♪ Sneak♪ !"

Komaru: "Huh!?"

Just then Komaru heard the cheerful voice of a young girl outside her cell doors. She looked over and discovered a pink haired girl with ponytails looking at her through a small bar window of the door.

Kotoko: "Tra lala! Why, hello there! I am Kotoko Utsugi, in charge of the “Warriors” of the Warriors of Hope. I was once called Li'l Ultimate Drama as well, but I don’t really care about that. Now... OPEN SESAME!!!"

- *BANG*!!!!

On the other side of the door something heavy and swift slammed into the door til it broke down and allowed the pink haired girl, Kotoko caring a strange weapon in her hands to walk in.

Kotoko: "Hello! May I stink up the place?! Aah, phew! Ufufu, I keep repeating these antique jokes. I’ve gone up against the baby boomers all the time, so my gags have gotten so old. Speaking of old... kyaaa! I'm not getting any ideas! It’s because I got nervous! Haa, the thumping in my chest is like how exhausted and how pale Master Takahashi was when he did his 16-shot rapid-fire. Master Takahashi would be super proud!"

Komaru: "U-um...?"

Kotoko: "Yes, I know what you want to say. You want to say that “Warrior” sounds boyish, right? Speaking of boyish, there are people that proudly talk about how slugs have no gender, but the truth is that slugs are both male and female. Kotoko will punish anyone who goes around circulating misinformation like that without even knowing that much! Warrior Kick! Warrior Punch! Yah, yah, yah! Hiyaaah!"

Kotoko started up a sequence of martial arts punches and kicks to show off her power as the "Warrior" of the Warriors of Hope, yet due to her weak physical stats and coordination she ended up falling over on her back revealing her childish panties.

Kotoko: "..."

Komaru: "..."

Kotoko: "This is why I said I didn’t want to be the “Warrior” because I’m bad at physical education. Well PE may be PE, but I’m proud of my physical education though... how about you? Are you good at physical education?"

Komaru: "Ah... It’s not a subject to be good or bad at, right?"

Kotoko: "No! There are no girl that dislikes physical education! That’s my pet theory anyways... Stare... Stare..."

Komaru: "What?"

Kotoko: "I actually came to hunt you, big sis, but I’ve changed my mind, so I’ll let you go free."

Komaru: "Eh?"

Kotoko: "Just so you know I haven’t changed my feelings towards Demons. I hate Demons as much as ever. I want to kill every last one of them as painfully and gruesomely as possible. For example... Like drowning them in a cesspool, or squeaking a musical saw into the space between their fingers and nails! I hate them with the absolute maximum of my heart that even doing that wouldn’t be enough. Now, if you ask why I would want to let big sis escape despite that… it’s because big sis is super adorable!"

Kotoko: "Huh?"

Kotoko: "I love cute things so much, that I collect everything that I think is cute, even faucets and toilet seats. That’s why I’m letting you escape!"

Komaru: "R-Really? Though I think I'm more average than adorable or-"

Kotoko: "However there's a catch! Only you get to escape, big sis. The ikemen with messed up hair and the aura of a protagonist, and the one arm tank top man are out! No boys allowed on this escape train! Also, the cold and scary nurse is too much for me... Not that I envious of her looks since I'm will soon to be a 10 out of 10 if I were unfortunate enough to grow up into a filthy adult!... Ah, where was I? Anyways, the point is that I don't want those three."

Komaru: "Eh? That's..."

Kotoko: "Also, keep this a secret from everyone else. That “Sage” Nagisa Shingetsu is especially strict about rules. That Nagisa said we can’t have juice with our meals, you know? It can’t be helped when we eat rice, but shouldn’t it be okay when we’re having bread? It’s like drinking milk with milk pancakes, or drinking curry soup with curry."

Komaru: "Umm?"

Kotoko: "Well then, let’s go go go! Please leave before the small fry find out!"

Komaru: "...But abandoning everyone here and leaving by myself is impossible."

Kotoko: "Oh? Whatever is the matter? Could it be its Girls’ Day? Or do you like closed rooms? Leave that to the mystery maniacs."

Komaru: "Besides, leaving Shin and the others is really is... No I can't do that. Shin's my savior and Drake and Sachi helped me more times than I can count. It's impossible for me to abandon them and leave on my own."

Kotoko: "...I see, Well, I understand your hesitation, but could you leave this prison for the time being? Come on, get a move on and get out. Girls are a bit cuter when they’re selfish, you know?"

Komaru: "I guess. Ah, I can go look for the other and free them now that I've es-"

As Komaru was about to say escape she felt something impact, no bite into her neck and saw a pair of dentures biting into her skin. Komaru made the mistake of turning her back to Kotoko who took that opening to raise the strange gun she was carrying that shots out dentures.

Komaru: "Ugh?!"

Kotoko: "This is a “Denture Launcher”! How is it? It’s a perfect, high-spec machine, isn’t it? This towering form, this fresh, salmon color! This odious, lovable gloss! Kyaha, it’s unbelievably adorable! Ah, by the way I'm from a family of dentists. By the way again my papa kept having affairs with the dental assistants. He had a complex about being a surgeon even though he was a dentist; apparently he was into surgeon play. Yes, he was a wonderful papa. He ignored his business and made me earn all the income, so... no matter how many times I kill him, it wouldn’t be enough, that wonderful papa of mine."

Komaru: "W-What... is this...? I can’t... move..."

Kotoko: "Oh nooo! Big sis’ sleepy face is super cute too! If it’s big sis, I’m sure the face you make when you’re out of breath from crawling is cute too. Ah, but being adorable and cute is a sin, you know. Cute things will suffer. If you’re cute, big sis, then you have to protect your own body. If you can’t do that, then whatever happens to you can’t be helped, you know? It’s a shitty rule... but the adults were the ones who made it... so please prepare yourself. Hey, my peerless and cute Samurai Monokuma hiding outside the door could you please carry our new toy away?"

Samurai Monokuma: "..."

Komaru: "...Shin... Everyone..."

And like so Komaru was captured. Samurai Monokuma came inside the room and picked up the paralyzed Komaru into her arms. Komaru's limp body should have been too heavy for a normal girl like the seventeen year old Samurai Monokuma appeared to be, yet she effortlessly carried Komaru over her shoulders as if she didn't weigh anything, and along with her master Kotoko they left the Resistance Base.

Shin: "...Yeah, it's like the plot is progressing just fine. Everything is going according to plan."

Shin smiling to himself within his jail cell was gazing down at the device within his hands. What he was looking at was the Communicator Phone. It was a communications tool used by Team Japan to talk with one another over long distance, yet it had another interesting function. Not only could they be used to communicate with one another even without (satellite) coverage, they could also be used to locate previously connected to Communicator Phones of comrades. Shin kept his team's Communicator Phones within his subspace Na Rings and had made sure to give Komaru, Sachi, and Drake their own device incase of a emergency.

Shin current plan was to follow Komaru after she was kidnapped by Kotoko of the Warriors of Hope just like it had happened in the plot of the game. In the game after Toko Fukawa escaped her confinement the Servant (name) had secretly sent Monokuma Kids to deliver a tablet device that was tracking Komaru's location. There was a good chance that the same thing would happen even if the Servant had been replaced by Jin/Magician Monokuma, yet not taking any chances Shin made sure Komaru kept on her person a Communicator Phone.

Shin: "I'm glad that the jamming signal from Towa Hills isn't effecting the Communicator Phones. Now... it's time to escape! Sachi! Drake! It's time to go!"

Shin turned on the Communicator Phone and called his comrades informing them it was time to escape. Shin hadn't called Komaru incase she was being watched by Kotoko, instead had called Drake and Sachi to tell them about his plan. Once the two had his say so they were more than happy to leave their dusty jail cells and breathing in some fresh air (They were still underground, so it wasn't really fresh). Then moments later within the Resistance Base two doors were broken down by force and one door picked letting out their occupants. Shin, Drake, and Sachi regrouped after leaving their confinement. Shin was glad the others were okay, yet was surprised when he couldn't find any traces of the Monokuma Kids who were supposed to be assisting them to track down Komaru. He had considered the possibility of their absence, yet he never actually thought that they wouldn't appear.

Shin: "Fuck! What are you doing Jin! If I hadn't given Komaru a Communicator Phone we would all be in deep shit right now just trying to catch up to her! I'm definitely going to give this guy a good beating before I use Holy Sword Switch!"

Drake: "Hey, are you sure that this isn't a trap? It was far too easy to escape and we even made a lot of noise, but no one is coming after us."

Sachi: "You worry too much. The adults of that so called Resistance are a joke. You saw how they handled the Monokuma raid and the aftermath by attempting to capture us their savors. I would actually be surprised if these good for nothing adults had their act so together that they could respond properly to a jail break."

Shin: "That's enough talk guys. According to the device Komaru is already more than 3,000 meters away. If it's us we can easy catch up, but if they board that train than before we reach the surface we risk wiping out once she's 5,000 meters from us."

Sachi: "Train? Is that the next part of the plot? You really need to tell us what's come next in the plot before hand rather than waiting until the last second just to show off your otaku knowledge. Like why was Komaru even kidnapped and not killed in the Warriors of Hope's Demon Hunting Game?"

Shin: "Ah, my bad. I keep forgetting to explain things to you guys. As for why Kotoko kidnapped Komaru it's too..."

Drake: "...Shin?"

Shin: "...Like hell I'll allow that!!!"

Shin with a panicked look on his face yelled loudly before sprinting off into a run and just as Drake and Sachi were about to be left behind two Kagune tentacles shot out of his back, coiled around their waist, and carried them along behind him. Then without bothering to hearing a word of complaint from his comrades Shin began dashing forward nonstop with Instant Movement in his pursuit of Komaru and Kotoko.
