《Danganronpa ocem》Chapter 1 Part 5
Advertisement
After saying goodbye, Chloe left my room and I lay on the bed, having no motivation to do anything else. My mind filled with thoughts.
Is Crysty the Mastermind? Was everything she said so far a lie? Why am I here? Why me?
Why me?
For the first time since I got here, I broke down. It's not a rare occasion that I cry, but this time it just felt different, because this time I really might not get out of this alive. And I know I've been waiting on this for my whole life, but it's not the same when you're not doing it willingly, you know what I mean?
You probably don't.
I fell asleep, tears still pouring out of my eyes.

Speakers: Good morning students! It is now 7am! Get up and have a beeaautiful day!
I got out of bed and headed to the food court to meet the others for breakfast.
Chloe: Oh Ash, good morning. I've told everyone about what we heard yesterday...
Ashlyn: Where's Crysty?
Chloe: She's... Not here.
Ashlyn: Oh.
Sophie: I've got something to say.
Everyone turned to face her. And she pulled out five white cards from her pocket.
Sophie: I found these cards in one of the boxes in the clothes shop, I thought maybe they could be used to unlock the secret room. I think we should assign five different people to use these cards on the scanner, at any time they want, and report their findings tomorrow morning.
Chloe: That sounds good to me! Who should we assign?
Sophie: I've already decided before hand. Ashlyn, Randi, Kendric, Hanako, Yu Xuan, you've literally been doing nothing since we got here, so take these cards and go try them at the scanner. Tell us your report tomorrow morning.
Chloe: Excuse me? They haven't been doing nothing! At least Ash hasn't!

Sophie: Just take the cards, you literally have to just go scan it, it'll take you five minutes.
The five of them took turns taking the cards.
Sophie: Anyway, since Crysty could be the Mastermind, please try to stay away from her, as she might murder you, and use the fact that she needs to kill the Mastermind as an excuse.
After saying our goodbyes, we went our separate ways.
I was almost at my dorm when-
Crysty: Hey Ash!
On instinct, I backed up.
Ashlyn: Oh uh, Crysty! What're you doing here?
Crysty: Oh, I was just going to grab something for my Mastermind hunt and I saw you!
Ashlyn: That's nice, well I really gotta go in my room now, I'll see you soon!
Crysty: Oh yea sure! By-
I closed the door on her and sighed in relief.
Hm. I don't really have anything to do right now, I guess I'll go find someone to hang out with.

Rachel: Hey Ashlyn!
Ashlyn: Wanna go grab something at the food court?
Rachel: I'm not doing anything right now, so sure.
Rachel and I spent some time eating and chatting in the food court.
Ashlyn: I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to spill that on you, I'm so clumsy I'm sorry!
Rachel: No it's ok, it was an accident.
Ashlyn: But the soup just so happened to land on your shirt!
Rachel: Yea, I'm not the luckiest.
Ashlyn: But you're the ultimate lucky student, aren't you?
Rachel: Yea, but that just means I was chosen by lottery. Just because I was lucky one time doesn't mean I'll be lucky forever. Luck is limited, and each person is only given a specific amount. I guess mine ran out the moment I was chosen.

Ashlyn: Come to think of it, this situation isn't really 'lucky' in a sense...
Rachel: You never know what's going to happen in this situation, it might be lucky after all, you just don't know yet.
Ashlyn: How will a killing game end well?
Rachel: Think about it, you've met people you never thought you would meet, doing things you never thought you'd ever do. I don't know how this will end, but I do know that we all have a little bit of ultimate lucky student in us, and if that's the case, anything can end well.
Ashlyn: That's... Very smart. I guess I'll go now, see you later.
Looks like I got a little closer to Rachel today!
I headed back to my dorm.
Hm. I don't really have anything to do right now, I guess I'll go find someone to hang out with.

Ashlyn: Hey Ashton, wanna walk around together?
Ashton: Sure, I could always use some company.
Ashton and I spent some time walking around together.
Ashlyn: How do you feel about this whole... Situation?
Ashton: I- I don't know... I get so scared every time I'm reminded of it... Whenever Monokuma appears, I start shaking and stuttering... A lot of times it sends me to the verge of tears.
Ashlyn: That's understandable. But you're a detective aren't you? I've never heard of such a shy detective before.
Ashton: I'm really only the ultimate detective because I solved one case on my own. It wasn't that big of a deal but everyone made it seem like one.
Ashlyn: I see.
Ashton: I'm really not worthy of being the ultimate detective, aren't I?
Ashlyn: I think you are.
Ashton: Thanks.
Looks like I got a little closer to Ashton today!
I headed back to my dorm.
Hm. I don't really have anything to do right now, I guess I'll go find someone to hang out with.

Ashlyn: Hey Kendric.
Kendric: Hi.
Ashlyn: Wanna hang out?
Kendric: Sure.
I spent some time watching Kendric play on his Nintendo switch.
Ashlyn: Do you bring your switch everywhere?
Kendric: I'm the ultimate gamer, I think I need it.
Ashlyn: You haven't said much since we got here.
Kendric: I listen, I just don't like responding.
Ashlyn: When are you going to go scan the card?
Kendric: Soon I guess.
Looks like I got a little closer to Kendric today!
I headed back to my dorm.
Speakers: Attention students, it is now 10pm. Therefore, it is now night time. Please note that the auditorium is off-limits during night time, so please exercise caution. Also note that sleeping anywhere other than the dormitory will be seen as sleeping in class and punished accordingly. Sweet dreams, puhuhuhuhu!
Ashlyn: Night time already. Before I go to sleep, I should go scan the card at the electronics shop so I have a report for tomorrow morning.
I left my room and headed to the electronics shop with my card.
Hanako: Ash! Are you here to scan your card too?
Ashlyn: Oh Hanako, Yu Xuan, yea I am.
Yu Xuan: Nice, you're just in time, we can be witnesses.
We took turns scanning our assigned cards, but none of them went through.
Hanako: I guess we'll have nothing to report tomorrow. I hope the others manage to open it.
Having discovered nothing, the three of us returned to our rooms.
I guess I should go to sleep now.
I flopped into my bed and...
...
...
...
Speakers: Good morning students! It is now 7am! Get up and have a beeaautiful day!
Alright, time to head to the food court.

B's Grand Adventure
It has been two hundred years since the first contact with aliens from the planet Proxima Centauri. It has been about one hundred and ninety-eight since the Centurians and humans accidentally connected their computer systems together. That same year Centurian virus took over almost all of humanity's computers. This was right about the time a huge solar flare knocked out all communication on Earth. Some time between then and now secrets were revealed, like secret societies, where the nukes were being hidden, and, most importantly, that there were Fae, magic beings, living among humanity all this time. The Proxima Centurians eventually came to the now weakened Earth to 'check on' humanity about fifty years ago. Some say they are here to colonize what's left of the city-states and raiders alike. But now we focus on a young man who has earned the ire of a Centurian colony and a powerful half-Fae named Jormungrand. This young man has chosen the name for himself as B.
