“If you try to run away, I’ll kill you.” said Maki and turned to Shuichi and spoke.

“If she says anything contradictory, let us know.”

Shuichi nodded and they all went out of the woods while taking Tsumugi as a captive. When they arrived back at the park center there seemed to be arguments amongst the Jabberwock island killing game participants.

“Fuck off, everyone here remembers the moment they died.” yelled Fuyuhiko.

“I-I’m s-sorry. I don’t remember ever killing Hiyoko or Ibuki. Why would I do something so h-horrible?” weeped Mikan.

“You’re lying, you’re definitely lying.” cried Kazuichi.

“Enough Kazuichi, you won’t know that with your rotten brain.” yelled Sonia.

“Yes, you are right. I don’t know shit, but teach me how to know shit miss Sonia, be my senpai” said Kazuichi with a horny smile.

“That skanky bitch is obviously lying. Burn her in fire!” yelled Hiyoko.

“Nooo!” yelled Mikan.

But Teruteru interjected and stood in front of her.

“How dare yall threaten a precious lady with such brutality. It is fine, milady. I shall protect you from all these wile animals.” said Teruteru with anger.

“You don’t understand, Teruteru. She is a remnant of despair.” said Hajime.

“Well, aren’t you all?” said Chiaki.

“Ch-chiaki?” muttered Hajime.

Fuyuhiko grumbled and spoke.

“Yeah, Junko said we were. Those future foundation bastards said we were remnants of despair. And we probably are but-“

“Hey, umm, what is this rem nut of this pair you guys are talking about? Is that some kind of food? May I have one?” inquired Gonta.

Everyone else looked at him awkwardly. Before Gonta could say anything further Shuichi jumped in.

“Ahh, Gonta, we need to go immediately.”

Shuichi grabbed hold of Gonta’s hand and pulled him out of the group.

“What you guys talking about?” said Kaede enthusiastically while entering into the group conversation.

“Kaede, we have to go.” yelled Shuichi.

Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

“Good to see you mellons, I mean, milady. These treacherous fellows have been bullying this poor girl, accusing her of a crime she never committed. I was defending her from these tasteless savages” said Teruteru seductively.

“Hey, you guys know bullying is uncool, right?” said Kaede with a stern expression.

“Yeah, of course we know but-” yelled Kazuichi.

“Then stop it, get some help.” said Kaede.

“Why would I stop? Bullying is fun and cool. Those who can’t defend themselves from a small kid like me are honestly the weakest and the most pathetic.” cried out Hiyoko while barely holding in her laughter.

Hearing this Kaede became angry and opened her mouth but a person yelled first.

“Don’t butt into shit you don’t understand, blondie.” scolded Fuyuhiko.

“I may lack some contextual information. But shouldn’t you be nicer to her regardless? Or are you agreeing with this boobless gremlin over here.” said Kaede with a disappointed look.

“Yeah, what Miss Kaede said is right. In fact, I think Mikan is better off spending time with me and her” said Teruteru as he held onto Mikan’s hand.

“Eep!” gasped Mikan as his hand touched her’s.

“You’re gonna die for thinking with your dick, country dishwasher! I saw that bitch killing Ibuki and she killed me!” yelled Hiyoko.

“Oh, that’s-”gasped Kaede.

“Well, maybe you’ve seen it wrongly. Maybe you imagined it. Someone as nice and innocent as her, killing? Don’t make me laugh” said Teruteru as he kissed Mikan on the back of her hand.

Mikan couldn’t hide her bashfulness but a soft “Thank you” escaped her mouth.

“Come my darling. No point in speaking to these meanie heads.”

Teruteru grabbed ahold of Mikan’s hand and went away. Shuichi went up to Kaede and pulled her away from the Jabberwock island crew as well. They went towards the bridge that leads to the fifth island.

On their path they reached Maki, Kaito and Tsumugi. Gonta was there too and he was yelling.

“What going on? Why Tsumugi tied?!”

“She is a dangerous person that needs to be locked away.” explained Maki.

“She is lying. I didn’t do anything wrong!” claimed Tsumugi.

“Let Tsumugi go. Friend hurting friend is bad”

“She is not a friend! She is the mastermind who orchestrated the killing game we had been through!” yelled Maki with deadly eyes.

“Wha- That can’t be true. Gonta can’t believe!” said Gonta agonizingly.

“This is the truth, Gonta. Me, Keebo and Himiko can back this up. You can’t just ignore these accounts, Gonta. Have to face the sad reality” said Shuichi with distraught as he approached them.

Gonta gasped but soon enough he took a deep breath.

“Right, Gonta understand.” came out from his mouth and a sorrowful expression followed.

They all melancholically walked across the bridge. Keebo walked next to Shuichi and spoke:

“Shuichi, did you hear what they were talking about? They said they were the-”

“Remnants of Despair, yeah, I heard that.” Shuichi said blankly.

“T-this does match up to our memories. Wouldn’t that mean all of these people are extremely dangerous?” asked Keebo.

“Dangerous? Them?” asked Kaede as she stared at Mikan and Teruteru, the two walked in front of them. Mikan happily laughed while Teruteru made strange faces. Clearly they were too far away to hear what they were saying.

Shuichi sighed and spoke.

“Let’s forget about that. We know the flashback lights are unreliable.”

“But didn’t the research document you found about hope’s peak academy say the same thing?” asked Keebo.

Shuichi nodded and said “But you have to remember that these people don’t have the memories of being remnants of despair. Then again, they very much have the potential to turn towards becoming remnants of despair.”

Shuichi’s tone became grim. Keebo became silent but soon spoke.

“You’re right. Shouldn’t we take some precautionary measures?”

“It’s fine Keebo. Being friendly and acting naturally when we are with them should be enough of a measure. We shouldn’t accuse them of fictional crimes that only happened in Danganronpa 2. And even if they have the potential to become messed up, everyone has that” said Shuichi somberly.

Keebo nodded.

Soon the crew reached the fifth island.
