*~Just a quick note before you begin to read my story. In this Dangan Ronpa Fanfic each victim and culprit is the same as in the original game. However there obviously are changes to the original story line. One last thing, if you intend to be rude in your review I'd rather you didn't review at all. However, helpful criticism is always welcome. Another important thing I should point out is the fact I have neglected to use enough paragraphs. I'm really sorry about that, the large blocks of writing continue until chapter eleven… (Sorry!) Anyway, please enjoy~*

The gates were in sight, I was finally approaching Hope's Peak Academy. After the long journey on the train from my cottage in the mountains I had arrived at the school of my dreams. I felt extremely nervous as I walked towards the school gates. I wished I had actually taken the time to look at the Student's profiles on the internet so I had at least some clue of who I would be spending my time with. It would be an absolute terror if I couldn't get along with anyone at the school. I had enough of being lonely at my previous school. My heart began to pound as I reached the entrance. Something in the atmosphere surrounding the school made me hesitant to walk through the ominous gate. Perhaps I could just go home and finish that painting, I thought to myself. The thought of my mother's disappointment upon discovering that I turned down the opportunity of entering such a prestigious high school made me continue walking. The world became a swirl of tie dye colours as I lost consciousness.

When I woke up I was in an empty class room. I looked about anxiously and noticed that there were bolts upon the windows, I walked over to them.

"What is happening here?" I questioned, attempting to twist the bolts. There was no use in trying, they were screwed extremely tightly. As I continued looking about the room I realised that I was missing my bag containing toiletries and clothing. I was desperate that someone had collected it once I fainted and was planning to return it to me as soon as possible. There was a note upon a desk at the front of the class room. What's with this childish scrawl? I thought, horrified that a professor or a senior student could have such dreadful writing. The note instructed me to meet everyone in the gym at eight o'clock. The time was now ten minutes[AH1] to eight. I left the desolate class room and walked through the empty hall. It took me a few minutes to find where the gym was as the school was remarkably large. There were many rooms locked and stairways unreachable, large metal shutters were locking me out. I entered the gym, inside there were 14 teenagers. All of the students turned and stared at me as I entered.

"Hey…" I said nervously.

"Hey Amethyst!" a familiar voice called.

"Hagakure!" I shouted spotting the tall man amongst the group of students. He ran over to me and gave me a large hug, he even picked me up for a moment.

"It's so good to see you here!" He enthused.

"Did you wake up in a class room?" I questioned him.

"We all did. I think the staff must be playing a prank on us." A girl with a pony tail replied happily.

"I highly doubt it, why would such a prestigious school play such an idiotic prank?" A blond haired man said coldly. The girl from before frowned,

"Spoil sport." She muttered. "So what's your name?" The girl continued, "I'm Aoi, super high school level swimmer."

"Nice to meet you. My name is Amethyst Rose, Super high school level artist."

"Oooh, a fellow artist hm?" Said a round boy. "I am Yamada! I'm a dounjinshi artist."

"You must be very good at anatomy." I said with an awkward smile.

"So how do you two know each other?" questioned a beautiful girl, pointing at Hagakure and myself with a sharp red nail. "Are you like, together or something?" She asked, cringing at the thought.

"I wouldn't mind it." Hagakure grinned. I elbowed him jokingly,

"We met at the markets. We have stalls next to each other." I explained.

"Hello." Greeted a brown haired boy who had just arrived.

"You there!" Called an angry looking black haired boy. "You were told to be here by eight o'clock and it is now one minute past! Disgraceful!" The new student looked extremely confused.

"Sorry." He replied apologetically. Suddenly a crackling voice echoed through the room, it greeted us and said that the entrance ceremony would start in a moment. Something about the strange voice made me shiver.

"It'll be fine!" Hagakure grinned noticing my uneasiness. He gently rubbed my shoulder.

"Y-yeah." As I replied a black and white bear appeared on the stand on top of a stage. The same phrase was on everyone's lips or in their confused minds: A teddy bear?!
