Tan Liang: What? No that's stupid I know it was beef I handled it!

Chloe: It did taste different than how beef normally tastes...

Ashlyn: Wait no... No this isn't true it was beef!

Rachel: Then can anyone explain the bodies on the hooks and where the removed pieces go???

Randi: No, no we can't-

Hanako: I don't want to believe it too, but it's what I've been brought to.

Ashlyn: But Ashton is a detective he would've known that it wasn't beef-

Ashton: I- I didn't eat any takoyaki I'm allergic to beef so I didn't think-

Alyssa: Oh no no no this- UGH WHY AM I SO UNLUCKY-

Chloe: So we have been eating human flesh... Oh...

Miyoshi: I'm- I said it tasted good-

Ashlyn: I don't feel that... Shocked, but I'm disgusted...

Tan Liang: Guys I'm so sorry I didn't-

Alyssa: YOU IDIOT! YOU'RE TELLING US YOU COULDN'T TELL??? YOU'RE A CHEF DON'T YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN BEEF AND HUMAN MEAT???

Tan Liang: I'm sorry I couldn't tell-

Alyssa: No no you definitely could, you're just trying to get us to go insane or something!

Miyoshi: Alyssa this doesn't concern you, you didn't even eat the takoyaki!

Alyssa: I did okay??? I was hungry and I thought that if everyone said it was good I might as well trust them! I guess I was right to be suspicious!

Tan Liang: No just- I'm leaving.

Alyssa: You better before I drug you and tear you limb from limb.

Tan Liang left the room.

Alyssa: I'm leaving too, I need to go throw up.

Alyssa left too.

Miyoshi: So... Now we know not to eat food from here...

Ashlyn: I think I'll stick to the food court food from now on.

Ashton: So what're you guys going to do about it?

Chloe: What else are we going to do? We've already eaten it we can't do anything. It's already left our bodies anyway.

Miyoshi: I guess now we can go find the use for the remote.

Chloe: What do you think it does?

Randi: Since it was found the the Mastermind room and there's no already found purpose, I think we should go there.

Miyoshi: Alright then, let's go.

We walked over to the Mastermind room.

Miyoshi: Okay then, I'll press the remote. There's two buttons, open and close. Since there's nothing to really close yet I'll press open.

Miyoshi pressed the open button on the remote, and we heard the sound of metal parts clinking together. I'm the corner of the room, the wall pulled into two, revealing a large doorway, originally concealed from our sight.

Yu Xuan: What the heck?

Chloe: Should we enter?

Ashlyn: We've come this far, let's go.

We entered the doorway and down a long narrow hallway, illuminated by purple lights. At the end of the hall was a television with a button on its side. Miyoshi pressed it and the screen of the television sprang to life. On the screen was a person. She wore a black hoodie with the hood over her head, concealing her hair. She wore sun glasses, concealing her face, and a mask concealing the rest. On her hoodie was a small logo, it read "Team Danganronpa", and below it was a badge with the words "Assistant Mastermind" On it.

???: Hello? Hello? Mastermind, you there? What do you have to report?

We exchanged Suspicious looks, and the person to a closer look at the screen before letting out a loud gasp.

???: Wait you guys aren't all Masterminds!

The person in the screen panicked and used a piece of paper to cover their camera, restricting our view of them.

???: You're not supposed to be here! How- Mastermind you better explain this later!

Hanako: Um, who are you exactly?

???: I can't tell you. This place is supposed to be private!

Chloe: Can you help us? We promise we won't tell uh, Team Danganronpa or whatever.

???: Fine. Ask the question, but I won't promise I'll answer it.

Miyoshi: Where are you?

???: Not anywhere here.

Miyoshi: Who's this Mastermind you're talking about?

???: I can't say.

Miyoshi: Well this is useless. Let's go.

???: Wait.

Randi: Huh?

???: I'll tell you one thing.

Yu Xuan: What?

???: The Mastermind and I, and everyone else. We're on your side.

We left the hallway and the doors closed just as Miyoshi pressed the button on the remote.

Ashton: So, we know they're on our side...

Chloe: I call bull shit. They wouldn't put us through this if they were on our side.

Yu Xuan: What if Team Danganronpa forced them to?

Chloe: Maybe, but I'm still worried.

Ashlyn: Should we try to get our minds off things?

Chloe: With what?

Yu Xuan: Well, the third level should be unlocked by now, we could go explore.

Miyoshi: That's a good idea, let's go.

Ashlyn: I think we should check on-

Monokuma appeared, Sophie next to him.

Monokuma: Puhuhuhuhu! It is I, the one and only Monokuma!

Sophie: And me.

Miyoshi: What're you doing here?

Monokuma: To give you.... Drum roll please!

Sophie did a little drum roll by patting her lap.

Monokuma: The motive!

Chloe: Another motive? You know we won't kill this time.

Monokuma: I bet you won't!

Ashton: Sophie where have you been this whole time???

Sophie: Working.

Monokuma: Today's motive is a special one! I've discussed with outside forces and-

Yu Xuan: Outside forces?

Monokuma: Don't. Interrupt. Me. Yes, outside forces. Whoever manages to get away with their murder will become the next prime minister of the country. You'll finally get to gain control and help the country! Unlike a certain maid...

Miyoshi: That's a dumb motive. No one's going to kill to be the prime minister.

Monokuma: Not only that! We'll go through extreme amounts of effort to ensure that all your dreams come true, and that the public accepts you with open arms. We'll make sure your family and friends are treated as well as you. Basically you'll get everything you've ever wanted.

Randi: We ain't stupid, Monokuma. We know it's a lie.

Sophie: It's not.

Randi: And why should we trust you? You're our top suspect for Mastermind.

Sophie: But the Mastermind is on your side, right?

Ashton: What how did you-

Sophie: Trust me, this motive is more attractive than you think. Humans are greedy creatures.

Chloe: You just called yourself greedy.

Sophie: I don't lie.

With that, Sophie left the Mastermind room, and Monokuma disappeared.
