Flashback: Hope's Academy
Hope's Academy: The past
Naruto was alone he was looking at small open box. The small open box had a small statue of a dance inside. He stared at it with sad eyes. Music being played came from the small box the music was a small menloy tone.
"There you are." He heard a female's voice. Naruto quickly closed the box and put inside his bookbag. Naruto saw the female or rather females that spotted him.
Hiyoko Saionji, Mikan Tsumiki, Ibuki and Junko.
Hiyoko Saionji was another friend of Naruto and Junko, Hiyoko saw Naruto as her awesome big brother or her scary big brother (at serious time) Hiyoko is a very petite girl with long, blonde hair that is usually seen tied into curved twin tails. She has gold eyes and keeps her hair up with two hairties, which consist of green ribbon with a cat face in the middle. Much like the other female students she wore a dark brown school uniform during class day.
Hiyoko seem sweet and cute as a button but behind that sweet mask is a whole different person. Naruto knew that at first hand by playing big brother, though there time even Hiyoko know when not play around too much, she have seen a side of Naruto even that scares her.
Mikan Tsumiki was another friend but however she was much closer, especially between Naruto and Junko relationship. Mikan was known as the Ultimate Nurse due to skills with medicals. When Naruto was under depression it was Mikan that kept Naruto from successful finish his other suicide attempts, she force herself to be his watcher until he got 'better'
Mikan has long, dark purple hair and lighter, grayish-purple eyes, there a beauty mark under her left eye's corner, even ever she isn't wearing her school's uniform she working at the Hospital, wearing her wearing the nurse uniform.
"Ready?" Saionji asked her big brother-figure.
"Yeah I'm ready I just hope the others bring the food." Naruto said with a small smile.
"Pizza party tonight!" Junko said with a happy cheer.
Ten Hours later Naruto's House:
While Naruto's mother Kushina Uzumaki was still in a coma. Naruto had the house to himself and during that days of living alone, his friends would usually visit him with or without his permission which mostly falls on Ibuki crashing in or picking the lock to his door, or leaving window open or she made a copy of his house key whatever it was Ibuki always found a way inside the house of Uzumaki.
It was Friday, seven in the morning. The front door of the house was unlocked.
"Guess Ibuki did it again." A female voice spoke.
Opening the door slightly the female entered the Uzumaki house.
It was Mukuro who enter the Uzumaki household, the first thing she saw entering the house was rather cute or heartwarming display.
Laying on the couch before Mukuro was.
Tanaka, Ibuki sleeping on the couch, Ibuki had her head lending against Tanaka's right shoulder. To Tanaka's right was Kazuichi, resting their head on Kazuichi lap was Hiyoko Saionji.
Mukuro heard a sound it was coming from the kitchen. Mukuro wonder if it was Naruto or Junko? Mukuro journey her way to the kitchen without waking the others, after entering the kitchen the person whom Mukuro saw was neither Naruto nor Junko, it was another person whom Naruto knew or was close too.
The person had a very, very long black hair that nearly reached down to his knees. He wore a black suit, his eyes were malice red, he'd had a sad but bored expression on his face. He was peeking around Naruto's kitchen for something.
"What are you doing here?" Mukuro asked with a large frown.
"Food," he answered.
"I thought you found us to be boring? If you want food, go somewhere else." She said with glare.
"I'm not here only for good, Naruto ask me to come over. Junko didn't mind, beside I wanted to have a word with Naruto…but he's busy right now with Junko, I will wait." He told Mukuro.
"Why do you hang out or agree whenever it's Naruto?" Mukuro asked the long hair young man.
"I have my reasons, explaining it to you will be boring. Beside you're the Ultimate Soldiers of business of others is something you shouldn't be interested in, especially their not your assassination targets." The long hair young man's words bother Mukuro as she bit her bottom lip hard but not enough to draw blood.
"Mukuro, I have a question for you." He looked at her with some interest.
"What is it?"
"What is Naruto and Junko to you? If they ever went out of control will you kill them? If they try to kill you, will you defend yourself and counter back?" His question was.
Mukuro answer him with a silence with unsure look of doubt. The young long hair man crack a small smile for just a second before returning a bored frown.
"I see. If that is your answer then you will be killed."
"What is Naruto and Junko to you then?" Mukuro asked him.
"Junko is a pest, Naruto is…I really don't know. He's boring like the others but yet, I view him as…a friend. He always talks to me even when he bored me. He never listens to me, yet I try to help him. I don't know why I stick around him. Could be something inside me tells me he's someone not to doubt but if he ever went out of control. I will kill him without a second thought."
"W-why?" Mukuro looked shock.
"Because…he made an oath, and as a friend he told me to keep that oath. I think he hope that day never come. Junko…I wish to take him away from her. But I cannot stop him, the idiot in love with her. But don't you feel the same for him, Mukuro?" He stared at the Ultimate Soldier.
"He's my best friend I knew him since childhood. Of course I care for him." The young man shook his head.
"You may lie to me now, but I can see the weakness in your heart. You're in love with him, but I see it pain your cold heart as the Ultimate Soldier. For someone to be trained as a coldblooded soldier, assassinate your targets, your hopeless to tell him your true feelings or fight against Junko. If you truly love him, truly care for him. You should give him Hope. If not then you're nothing more than a boring pawn." Mukuro bear her teeth in anger.
"But…like Naruto. I view you as a friend too, Mukuro." His words made her gasp.
"Naruto's taking too long with Junko. I'll talk with him later." The young long hair man, turn his attention to the kitchen window. He opened it but before he jumped out he grab an apple and flee.
His words left its mark within Mukuro's head.
'Naruto…' Mukuro sigh in her thoughts. She heard the sound of Naruto's bedroom door opened there she could hear the sound of Naruto mumbling to himself, Naruto was fully dressed wearing his school uniform but however he had sad look in his eyes. In his right hand was a classic guitar.
Naruto walked over and shook Ibuki, Ibuki open her left eye to see Naruto. He quickly told her to be quite, he jerk his head to the right as she nodded.
"Naruto?" He heard Mukuro's voice.
"When the others wake up, tell them I'll see them at school, Ibuki 's coming with me." He told his best friend.
"Where are you going?" Mukuro asked.
"…" He sigh at first "I'm going to see Naruko, it won't take long. Junko and Mikan will wake up soon."
"Be careful." He smiled at her warning "I know, don't worry I got Ibuki watching my bad."
Ibuki grabbed the guitar Naruto had and grab her jacket and left while yawning.
"See ya later Mukuro-chan." Ibuki said while yawning.
Graveyard:
Mukuro left a note for everyone, she followed Naruto and Ibuki but made sure they didn't know she followed them. Peeking behind a large tree, Mukuro saw and hear what Naruto and Ibuki were doing.
Ibuki was sitting down on an empty space where no grave was marked. Naruto was standing in front of a grave headstone.
Here lies Naruko Uzumaki
Beloved Daughter, Sister, friend
Ibuki was playing a single sad tone of her guitar which became a short song she called "Wind" while playing the song, Ibuki started whisper.
While watching her friends from far, memories filled the Ultimate soldier's mind. She thought back to the time where her best friend was most happy, where his smile was his true smile, however those times were over now.
End of Mukuro's flashback:
Flashback: Unknown Location:
"We have to do something about it; it has been only three days since it was broadcast live. If this continues on, their plan to bring Despair to the world will succeed." An old male's voice spoke in the dark.
"There is still a chance we can turn this around." A second older male spoke.
"That is true with Naruto Uzumaki and Junko Enoshima deaths."
"No, Danzo that's not our answer."
"What is it then? If this goes on we cannot stop them, the blood of the innocent will be shed. Do you want us to sit here and wait?" Danzo asked.
"No, I didn't say that Danzo. I believe we can end this but on a different path. I have a plan, remember the young man whom was found near death? Your men found him."
"Ah yes, him. What of it?"
"One of my men found a secret entrance into the locked school. Not too long ago we received a S.O.S message coming from the school. It could be Chihiro, must have found a working laptop."
"Fine we'll send 'him' in but what if the Uzumaki is beyond saving? The Hope program wasn't finish he escaped before it was finish. He won't leave Enoshima side that much is known."
"He's madly in love with her, but if you remember that one personally hates her."
"What are you saying Sarutobi?"
"If we don't act now, either Enoshima will kill them or Naruto will kill Enoshima if that one personally wakes up."
"Either way Naruto is far more dangerous than Enoshima. He may be unfinished but if he does kill Enoshima that will solve one of our problems."
"That is why I am sending 'him' I rather have we take Enoshima in alive for questioning, if everything work out well they will survive."
"So far the Uzumaki personally one has been keeping it that way."
"I pray it stays that way."
"You call Mr. Sarutobi?" A young male's voice spoke.
"Yes, come on in son. We have something an important mission for you."
"What is it?" The young man asked.
End of flashback:
The cloak figure or shadow-man the students of hope called him. He sighs after thinking back to the task he was given, he was able take control of the school. The mastermind was dethrone but, he knew something wasn't right.
"Soon it will end, I guess hope we bet on the winning side. Don't disappoint me, students of Hope."
Elsewhere within the school:
"Naruto!"
Naruto stopped when he heard Makoto's voice.
"What is it?" He asked.
"We got at least thirty minutes…I was wondering, could answer some questions. I think only you may know." Naruto looked over his shoulder and saw Junko and Mukuro were waiting for him.
"Junko, Mukuro I'll catch up with you girls in a few, Makoto got a question for me, bit of a man to man talk if ya know what I mean." He winked his right eye while grinning. Mukuro slightly blush while Junko rolled her eyes.
"Don't take too long the trials begin soon." Junko said.
"I know, I know."
Junko walked passed Mukuro.
"Keep an eye on them; I don't trust Naruto alone with them, especially Makoto." She whispers to Mukuro. Mukuro closed her eyes and nodded.
"What do you want?" He asked with a serious stare.
"Naruto, we need your help. You're the only one who can help us." Naruto fall silence, he waited for Makoto to continue.
"Naruto, do you remember everything before you came here? I mean before you woke up like the rest of us?" Makoto's question was.
"It's because you guys hadn't recovers yours and it seems I'm the one who luck by a bash to the head huh?" He laughed lightly.
"Naruto, please…" Kyoko asked him.
Naruto frown after hearing Kyoko use the word 'please' he sigh.
"I think know who the shadow man and I know why he's doing this. I don't think he's working with Monokuma. I have to admit it is kind of my fault…" He told them.
"Why is that? Who is the shadow man?" Kyoko asks.
"An old friend of Junko, he and I didn't always see eye to eye, mainly because I thought he was Junko's new boyfriend when we broke up that one time over a dumb mistake on my end. Much like the well known and respect students of Hope's Academy, those who survive my sister's slaughter were so surprise to see me at Hope's Academy…" Naruto's eyes became dull and bored as he explained. Makoto and Kyoko could easily tell, this was subject Naruto wanted to skip but told anyway.
"I take it they weren't so happy to see you…" She said.
Naruto looked into his right hand, he placed his right hand over his face then he ran it down his face. Soon he grew a scary smile. Naruto's kind eyes were so replaced by a pair of serious but scary stare. The stare almost seem lifeless but, yet there was within his eyes but it wasn't hope that's for sure.
"Almost every day, at every moment…when I was alone I was attacked by the survivors, but at the time I didn't care. I kept fighting back, again and again. Until one of them went after one of my new friends…I didn't like that…what they were doing and so I made them…disappear." He chuckle in the end.
"No you…" Makoto looked shock while Kyoko cover her mouth with a shock stare.
"Oh don't be surprise Makoto, not the first time I ended the life of a human being. Sasuke wasn't my first kill either." He said with a large scary grin, Naruto continue "I will kill again and again if it means to protect the ones I loved. But I will sacrifice those in my way to survive in this world. A day of-" suddenly Naruto pause for a moment, he fell to one knee while groaning.
"Naruto, are you ok?" Makoto and Kyoko heard Mukuro's voice.
"I'm fine…just my head…started to hurt again. Hey Makoto…sorry I couldn't help ya."
"But could you tell us, who, who do you believe is the shadow man?" His question was.
"The Ultimate Neurologist Matsuda Yasuke, a man who I killed…well" He chuckle again "Thought I killed…see ya later you two I need to rest. Hey Mukuro…"
"Yes, Naruto?"
"See ya around." He smiled at Mukuro before he walked away but not before he starts to hum a song.
"Soon…soon…everything…will…end."
"Mukuro…can you help us?" Kyoko asked, Mukuro at first show sign of doubt and guilt.
"Mukuro please…or else we'll all die here or worst." Makoto begged her to answer them.
After hearing his request the Ultimate Soldier thought back to that certain moment of her memory.
'If you truly love him, truly care for him. You should give him Hope. If not then you're nothing more than a boring pawn.'
'I'm not a pawn…am I?' The Ultimate Soldier wondered in her thoughts.
Mukuro sigh "To understand it, we have to look into the past or rather the hidden truth."
"Hidden truth?" Makoto looked confuse.
"Naruto, Naruto and Junko aren't so…innocent as you think." Mukuro bit her bottom lip.
"Are you saying they're the true masterminds?" Makoto asked.
"No, just…a lot has happen." She sighed with a big frown "Naruto use to always smile but after…the death of his love ones, he change he stop smiling and he started to cry…and cry, cry. Even now he's crying for help yet there's no one who can help him, only Junko, me and few others who hadn't turn away from him. Hurt, betrayed, blamed, hated, broken…Naruto has suffer so much but yet…"
"He always smile, Naruto hasn't lost hope. Mukuro seriously…if you know what really going on here, please tell us." Both Kyoko and Makoto look at her with sad eyes.
'I can't…I want to help…but I can't…no I have too. I'm not a pawn…but I can't betray them I promise Junko. But I want to help Makoto, Kyoko. I want to help…no save Naruto.'
Kyoko grabbed by her arms and shook her.
"Mukuro tell us!"
Suddenly Mukuro's eyes widen as something trigger in her head.
'Tell us! Tell us! Tell us where are you hiding him?! Tell us where's that bastard! Tell us that's an order!'
Mukuro pushed Kyoko off her, Makoto caught Kyoko as the two look and saw Mukuro looking down on them with a dead soulless glare.
"There's nothing I tell you. I won't betray Naruto or Junko. If you want the truth, you will find them in the class trial. That book you have Makoto Naegi, that book holds the truth you seek, look hard and you will find the hope you desire." Mukuro walked off leaving Kyoko and Makoto confuse what just happen, Mukuro personally suddenly switch as if someone flip a switch.
"What the hell going on?" Makoto frown.
Few minute later The Gym:
Once they entered the Gym, they discover the others already beat them to it. Asahina, Yasuhiro, Byakuya and Toko were already there. But however, Mukuro, Junko and Naruto weren't there.
"THANK YOU ALL FOR COMING!" Monokuma shouted.
Monokuma chuckled as he looked at everyone who arrived.
"Now that you've all have arrived."
"All?" Makoto blink "Where are the others?" he looked around.
"Ah don't care if Naruto or his girls show up. Take a look at this!" Monokuma raise his right paw in the air. As a large TV screen came down to show them what has become of their friends.
"You gotta be shitting me." Mondo cursed.
On display in front of the escaped cast was a screen filled with…Despair.
Before their very eyes they saw their friends were chained down to strange devices or were placed in a strange position. The first to be seen was Leon, he was strapped down to a long metal pole he was surrounded by a five baseball machines shooters. The look of fear filled Leon's face.
"GET ME OUT OF HERE!" He screamed.
Next was Celestine, she was tied down to a long wooden pole underneath her was soak thick brushes. Like Leon, she too had look of fear in her red eyes.
"Surely you are joking." Celestine said with a scared voice.
Then Sayaka was next but unlike the two she wasn't in a dark room, the room she was in was a pink colored room but however she was standing, around her neck was a chain collar she was standing in a large bear-trap that had very sharp ends.
"H-H-Hello can you guys hear me? Please get me out of here…please. I don't want to die." Sayaka started to have tears run down her face.
Fourth was Sakura, she was in an area of some kind. She stood there calm and cool but every now and then she would look to her right to see a locked gate, within the gate was group of Lions.
"I see…this is how you kill me?" Sakura spoke with a calm voice as usually.
Fifth was Kiyotaka he was in a room filled with Monokuma dolls, but there something off. He was soaked from head to toe with some liquid, he looked to his right and saw one of the dolls was holding a flamethrower.
Sixth was Hifumi, he was wearing a dog collar while being strapped down to iron table. Behind him was a Monokuma doll holding a white cake with a glowing device on it, the words 'Last Meal' were written on the cake, above Hifumi was a large buzz saw.
"Holy shit this is too much." Mondo as Makoto, himself and Asahina faces turned blue, their faces filled with despair as neither one didn't want to see what would happen next.
"Why are they're capture?" Makoto asked Monokuma.
"I got bored and thought oh what would be a perfect bait to have all you guys work together to expose the truth? If you don't each one of yours friends will die and then you will die." Monokuma chuckled.
"What about the shadow man?" Asahina asked.
"Who cares about him? He's no longer in my way. The class trial will begin soon. Kyoko, Makoto remember what I said if you guys are plan on doing what I think your thinking about." Monokuma laughed before he ran off.
"What did he told you?" Byakuya asked the two.
"He said if we do plan on killing Naruto, we die, we all die. Monokuma said he will kill us all." Makoto told the group. Everyone but Kyoko didn't take that news so well, especially Byakuya.
"Why is our lives on the line for that idiot?!" He yelled.
"Only if we kill Naruto or he dies. Naruto is very important to Monokuma. Monokuma is the true mastermind that I can be sure, but the shadow man is someone we cannot forget." Kyoko explain.
"Everyone…I have something to show you. I don't know, will you believe what you will see but everything in this book…is real." Makoto got down on his knees and open it showing the group what was within.
"That can't be real." Mondo growled.
"Even I…can't accept this." Byakuya sigh.
"We were…all friends." Asahina frown.
"Big bro…" Chihiro frown as he saw a picture of him, Mondo, Naruto together smiling.
"Man this is such a jumping the shark huh." Yasuhiro sweatdrop.
Makoto turned a page and something fell out. Kyoko picked up the picture the picture only made her frown. The picture she held was a picture of Kyoko and her father together, a memory she has forgotten and she may never remember.
Kyoko place the photo in pocket.
Turning another page, the gang saw a picture of a tall red hair woman who looked sick but she had a beautiful smile. The red hair woman was wearing a green color dress. The red hair woman was sitting down in a chair, sitting on her lap was an odd looking toy rabbit, the toy rabbit was pink. Beside the red hair woman was Junko and Mukuro dressed in dress, Mukuro's dress was dark brown, while Junko's was red and pink. And last and but not less was Naruto who wore a black suit, he was standing between Mukuro and Junko, everyone was smiling in the picture.
Sitting in Junko's lap was Monokuma while Mukuro held a picture frame of Naruko.
Uzumaki Family was the title of the picture.
Kyoko glare at the picture.
"So it is true…" She said.
"Huh, what's true?" Asahina asked.
"In Naruto's dairy before Monokuma ate it. I discovered something…bad." Kyoko frowned which made everyone looked worry.
"What did you discover?" Byakuya asked.
"The creator of Monokuma is, Naruto Uzumaki." Everyone gasps.
"Whoa are you sure? I'm this is Naruto we're talking about He-" Yasuhiro said.
"Uzumaki behavior has charged over time. Who can say he was faking it. We can't believe what he said only what our own eyes and ears." Byakuya closed his eyes and thought.
"Now I have an idea," He said to the group.
"What?" Makoto and Asahina asked.
"What if Naruto recovered his memories. He is just playing along. If he did create Monokuma…who can say, our lives on the line remember. For now we have to play it safe." Byakuya's words brought nothing but worries.
Makoto turned another page.
"Huh what this?!" Makoto Yell.
"What is it?" Asahina asked.
Makoto show everyone this one picture that was held within the book.
Time was over and now was the time for the school's trial
Everyone was riding the elevator together, not a single word was spoken. However the silence was broken when a heavy sigh came from Junko.
"Here we are." She said, as the doors open.
Sitting in the chair where Monokuma usually sit, was the shadow figure. Sitting beside him in another chair was Monokuma.
"Welcome, let the main event begin." The Shadow figure said with a joyful chuckle.
"You two working together?" Makoto asked the shadow-man.
"No, but we both agree to watch how the final show will end." The shadow-figure said.
"Yup, what better way to see Hope and Despair clash oh I can't wait Pupupupu." Monokuma giggled.
"Very well let us begin." Byakuya said.
"But before that, let your friends watch the show shall we?" The shadow figure snap his fingers as behind everyone was a TV screen showing their capture friends watching the live Trial.
"What shall the first clue be?"Mukuro asked.
"I would like the first clue to be…this." Kyoko took out a picture of the sixteen students plus Naruto.
"The hell…" Naruto looked surprise.
"Yeah that's what we thought too. It strange a picture of all of us together, yet only few days ago we just met." Makoto looked with sad eyes.
"How is it we knew each other…yet we don't." Naruto asked Makoto.
"That…I don't know, that is still unknown, but with the clues we gather, we will find the true!" Makoto explained to the Uzumaki.
"I see." Naruto nod "If that picture clue wasn't a mind fuck let me show you what I found."
"What did you find?" Chihiro asked.
"Who's the shadow freak is!" He looked at the shadow figure.
"Oh, it makes me happy you remember me, Naruto." The shadow figure chuckled.
"Who is he then?" Asahina asked on everyone's behalf.
"He is-"
"Why spoiler the fun, if you will share my secret, I will show them a little secret of yours Naruto. Your six secrets…"
Naruto suddenly pause with widen eyes.
"…" Naruto became suddenly silenced.
"Naruto?" Junko notice how quickly her boyfriend became.
"Makoto, what else ya got?" He asked.
'He changed the subject…that's odd.' Makoto thought.
"How about I help you Makoto, I know just the person to help you with the small block in your way."
"Huh?" Makoto and the others looked confuse.
"That won't needed…" Naruto said.
All eyes focus on the Uzumaki. Naruto lower his head and took a deep breath and let it out, he took a deep one in and release it.
"I don't care if you expose me here and now. But what I want to know, how is your still alive. How is it your still alive even after having your head stomp on. Yasuke Matsuda." Naruto addressed the hooded man.
The shadow figure took off his cloak showing everyone who he was, in truth he was Yasuke Matsuda alive and well, however there a scar line on the right side of his face. He still worn his school's uniform.
"I would have been dead." He paused before sighing "If it wasn't for the old goat for finding me. You know who I'm talking about Naruto, and yes he still hates your guts even now."
Naruto let out a loud laughter.
"That stupid fuck is still around." His laugh grew louder "So let me guess, he sent you here to kill me? After all I screwed up his plans, and like the old man, you and him have always stay in my way."
"What is he talking about?" Asahina asked Makoto.
"It's not nice to leave your friends in the dark, Naruto-kun."
"DON'T FUCKING CALL ME THAT! ONLY JUNKO, MUKURO, MY MOTHER, MY SISTER CALLS ME THAT! YOU DON'T DESERVE THE FUCKING RIGHT YOU GIRLFRIEND STEALER PIECE OF SHIT!" Everyone was shock by Naruto's wild personally, but then Naruto felt a rush of pain rushing through his head, just by the cause of a strong flow of anger.
"Here we go…" Yasuke said.
Naruto raise his head, his facial expression changed to a serious, his eyes had a deep longing stare as if he was above everyone and all seem to be ants before him.
"Playing a dangerous game are you? You have guts for someone like you. Raise his anger to this level. You could have summoned the 'other' one." Naruto spoke in a deep calm mature tone.
"Whoa…what just happen?" Yasuhiro sweatdrop.
"Yeah, Naruto…he's acting like someone else." Asahina frown.
"Because I am Naruto, yet I am not." He answered.
"Who are you?" Kyoko asked.
"I am Naruto Uzumaki. I am his second personally one who walks the path of truth and judgment. You may call me, Pain." He introduced himself.
"Pain?" Everyone but Monokuma, shadow figure and Junko said.
"You must be born from the pain Naruto must have dealt with all his life." Asahina guessed.
"You are half correct. When Naruto could no longer bear pain of losing others or the pain of being betray or psychical harm, I was born. Unlike Naruto, I feel no Pain. Hurtful words may reached my ears but has no effect, break my fingers I shall not cry, stab me with a knife I won't fall." Pain spoke, while staring at everyone with his strong eyes.
"What are you?" Makoto couldn't believe such a personally exist in his friend.
"I told you, I am Pain. Those who cannot understand true pain can never understand true peace. To know pain, is to understand lost, death, war, despair. To understand Hope you must drive into Despair, such is the way of life."
"Are you…no…did you set us up here? Were you the one who trapped us?" Makoto asked Pain.
"Too answer you're questions no I did not plan to trap you all here, but I did aid the mastermind who did." He said.
"You're being honest with us?" Kyoko find it strange.
"Why should I lie? I have no reason, plus telling the truth will spare the lives of you all. But know this I am not on your side, in the Despair a waits in truth." He sighed.
"You're on the side of Despair but why?" Makoto asked him.
Pain let out a small chuckle. But soon he stopped he notice how scared the students looked at him.
"Sorry, that was the 'Naruto' in me. In this world even before the event many people I know…no Naruto know died. People shiver in terror upon Naruko's wrath. But no one cared, even though the school lost one of their best…Naruko was only one of their best, she would be replace. All of humanity, all nations, the entire world did not care. For Hope can be easily replaced." Pain knew if Naruto heard this his heart would shatter apart.
"You're saying your sister life was…useless?" Kyoko asked, while frowning.
"No not to Naruto…not to us. She was important, a Hope that kept the balance together within us. For us, Naruko was our Hope."
"Losing family is hard, but to think you and this mastermind plan together just to trap us here, to kill one another, for what reason would that deliver?" Byakuya asked. Pain let out another chuckle.
"Naruto?" Asahina asked.
"No, that was me this time." He said.
"Think about it, why Monokuma have cameras everywhere in nearly every room at every corner." Pain grew a small smile.
Then it hit everyone as they gasp.
"You're…broadcast this live!" Makoto gasp as Kyoko looked shock as well the others.
"To watch your young students, your children, friends, love ones murder each other left and right just to escape. To make things even better all of you knew each other. We were best friends. You are the symbol of Hope, you are the future Hope of this world." A wicked smile came across Pain's face.
"No…way…" Yasuhiro's jaw drop.
"Image what the parents would see, to see their son, daughter, niece or nephew could be murder at anytime on any day. This fear would give rise to the end of Hope. Conflicts would cease between the battle of Hope and Despair. Do you see? The "pain" I give will make Despair grow."
"Make Despair grow? But why?" Makoto asked him.
"Makoto, Makoto." He shook his head "You're still innocent, you still have Hope. You never had your Hope broken shatter, you were never force to see the horror of life, Naruto was force to grow up at a very young age. Pain was the start of his Despair, it was only one path of Despair that seed within him. Like a mask hiding a true face."
"They would know "pain" The World Shall Know Pain." His eyes were filled with darkness, giving all a cold dark chill down their spines.
"I don't like this Naruto, he's creepy." Yasuhiro look afraid along with Asahina, Chihiro.
"Since you are his girlfriend, did you know of Naruto and his…other selves?" Byakuya asked Junko.
"No…I didn't." She said turning away with a large frown.
"Naruto is very good at hiding his emotions and…I should know I'm the serious side he doesn't like showing." Pain told them.
"Pain…would you mind switching back, I miss my Naruto already." Junko let out a sad sigh.
"Wait, I want to ask him what else does he knows?" Byakuya spoke on the others behalf.
"I will say, it has been a pleasure to be awake. It has been two long years since I rose to the surface of his body. But…I must bit a farewell, Naruto's waking up. Maybe the other paths will help you…that's if you can get them to come out." Pain closed his eyes while forming a smile.
"TWO YEARS! WE LOST TWO YEARS OF OUR LIVES!" Yasuhiro, Makoto and Asahina shouted together.
"Wait! Don't go!" Makoto yell.
After closing his eyes and after a deep breath, Naruto stood there as his head slowly wave left to right as if he was waited for a command. When he open his eyes, everyone there a deep expression of nothing, only a blank stare of emptiness filled his blue eyes.
"If only Naruko Uzumaki was here to see this." Yasuke said with a small smile.
"Leave Naruko out of this!" Junko yell with a frown.
Suddenly Naruto stopped when he heard Naruko's name.
"Did someone called for me?" A young woman's voice was heard.
"That voice!" Both Junko and Mukuro said together.
"Hello Junko, Mukuro it's been what two, three years since we last met girls?" Naruto raise his head showing a friendly smiling face.
"Naruko-sama is that you?" Mukuro looked horrific as much Junko.
Naruto let out a girly laugh "Yes it is I. Naruko Uzumaki, the Ultimate Talent aka the Ultimate Hope!"
"ULTIMATE HOPE?!" Everyone but Junko, Mukuro and Yasuke yelled.
"Well I should say…I am the second Ultimate Hope. I know many of you have many questions on why am I here? Have Naruto lost his mind? No Naruto hasn't not, the person you see before you is me, Naruko Uzumaki. Naruto's dead big sister."
"Wait…Naruto told me, his sister was dead. How are you here?" Mondo yelled the possess Uzumaki.
"I am dead…my body have died. But my mind that lives on, I live in within my brother's mind I am a part of my brother now and forever." She explained.
"How is that possible?" Kyoko asked "Could you explain to us, why Naruto has multiple personally and why are you one of them." She asked Naruko as the possessed Uzumaki nodded.
"And if you had any helpful clue who the mastermind is could you help us." Makoto added.
"Two of these personally aren't personally. They are actually living beings. Three personally are living beings, I am one of them." She said with a sad frown.
"Two are of actually living beings?" Makoto asked while everyone else was guessing what she meant why that. It took Makoto at least a minute to find out. Once he did he was horrific knowing the truth.
"The two other are…Naruto's dead brothers…" Asahina's face turned blue once knowing this one, only she and Makoto knew because Naruto told them.
"Brothers?" Everyone else looked confuse.
"Yes, my brothers did die…their bodies died but they live within Naruto." She said with a sad face.
"Why is that? How can be dead yet alive inside him?" Byakuya asked Naruko.
"Because…they were fused triplets." Makoto answer the question.
"Seem my little brother told you." Naruko smiled "Good, good, good."
"Which ones are your brothers?" Asahina asked Naruko.
"I had two brothers who died, Obito and Menma. Obito shared hearts, Menma share a brain when they cut Naruto from them, my little brothers died. I had no idea they would live on, until I die…" Naruko notice the shock look both Mukuro and Junko were displaying
"I'm judging from Junko and Mukuro this is all surprising you two didn't know about Naruto…issue..." The two females looked away with a look of betray and hurt written on their faces, how could Naruto kept this from them?
"Anyway I will explain how I am able to exist while my body is worm food." Naruko giggle.
"But first I want to know, did you…did you really slaughter everyone at your old high school?" Kyoko asked the question that was pulling on Naruko's heart strings.
"Ah yes of course, it's one of the reason why you all are here." Naruko giggled again.
"IT IS?!" Every student asked.
"Ah yes it is."
"Please explain." Byakuya said.
"The reason why I slaughter my friends, classmate, teachers…"Naruko let out a deep sigh "I was doing it protect them all, to save them."
"How the hell, killing became saving them?" Mondo asked with a confuse look.
"Because, those with talents have a dark fate that awaits them within this school of hope." She sighed.
"You're talking about Hope's Academy." Asahina said, while Naruko respond with a nod.
"Konoha High had a deal with the current founder of Hope's Academy. They were trying to create the perfect student, the Ultimate student. The one who bring new hope into the future of the world, they would become the new leaders of this world. The project was called PH AKA Project Hope. I was number eight, Naruto was number nine." Everyone but Monokuma and Yasuke was shock to hear this, however Junko had look of anger.
"No…they didn't! Are you fucking serious!" Junko smashed her hands down on the stand.
"Ah, but they did Junko, oh yes they did." Naruko looked away with a pissed look in her eyes.
"I was the Ultimate Talent because I wasn't only good at one, but many. Later on I was given the title Ultimate Hope. Naruto was the Ultimate Survivor, due to he was able to survive nearly any fatal wound or attack. Naruto was later given my title after my passing, he was my successor the Ultimate Hope was the title of anyone who reached their talent to their final stage when you mastered your talent without even trying." The more she continued explain the dark secret, Makoto started to understand why she went insane.
"I discover they were planning to perform an operation surgeon on Naruto. Since he was the Ultimate survivor he would be a perfect test subject on their little project. But Naruto wasn't the only one on their list…their list big and long. And so…" She became silence very quickly.
"You tired to kill them all in order to stop their plan." Kyoko said with a frown, deep inside she felt sick, since she was the daughter of the headmaster of this school.
"Your father was against Kyoko. He thought a student should become Ultimate Hope by their choice, not by a boost through surgeon. I knew what I did was wrong, but I had no stop. I wasn't going to let them use my brother or anyone else as their play thing. You could say my Hope was crushed that day and my Despair grew." Naruko laugh lightly.
Makoto reached in his right pocket and took out a folded up piece of paper and handed to Naruko. Naruko wonder what it was, as she unfolded the piece of paper, her eyes widen in shock. She dropped the piece of paper which turned out to be a torn piece of a newspaper.
"Thought you might wanted to know…" Makoto frown.
The headlines were in dark bold letters.
Mother of Naruko Uzumaki, craze student of Konoha High Passed Away.
Only surviving member, son Naruto Uzumaki had mental breakdown causing near death of girlfriend Junko Enoshima.
In the picture shows the face of Kushina, her eyes were closed but she was smiling. But to the right shown Naruto was being handcuff but he was being escort by men in white rather than men in blue. There they saw Junko who was crying as she tried to reach out to Naruto was behind held by police men.
"Mom's dead…" Tears ran down her face.
"Naruko…I didn't mean too, it was…" Junko spoke out to her boyfriend's sister.
"It's ok Junko, I forgive you. Naruto must have took it hard didn't he?" Naruko looked her brother's girlfriend.
"His grip was strong…he really wanted to kill me." Junko looked hurt yet scared.
"If Naruto said he loved you, he wouldn't have done it." Naruko smiled.
"Wait…do you think?"
"In that Despair, one of my brothers must have took control of him. They share body but not the feelings, Naruto may love you but they must hate you, Obito or Menma…or maybe its Naruto's true self."
"True self?" Mukuro ask while frowning.
"I have to admit but ever since that night…with Jiraiya. My little brother has been fucked up in the head, even I'm not sure which is real, is the Naruto Junko loves is Naruto?" Naruko sighed.
"No! Naruto is Naruto, I know. We've been friends since childhood. I know, I know without a doubt the Naruto we know and love is Naruto Uzumaki." Mukuro said proudly.
"Mukuro…" Junko was surprise by Mukuro short outburst.
"Naruko, did you really murder Jiraiya?" Mukuro asked. Naruko sighed hard as she shook her head.
"No…I didn't. Naruto did."
"NARUTO DID?" Everyone but Yasuke yelled.
"Yes, Naruto was protecting me…let's keep it like that. I don't want think about that night again." Naruko felt a deep dark chill running down her spine.
"Sorry…everyone, but Naruto waking up. Please be nice to my brother…but also don't give into Despair. Hope will win I know it, Mukuro, Junko, Makoto I leave the rest to you guys." Naruko smiled.
"We will." Makoto nodded.
Naruko closed her eyes switching over to Naruto. Naruto opened his eyes, however when he did he had a bored expression on his face. He looked around the room his eyes fell on everyone within the room.
Naruto turned his attention to Monokuma, the toy bear his deep stare upon him.
"What are you-"
Naruto reached back and quickly shot his combat knife toward Monokuma and Yasuke, Yasuke dodged but however he wasn't Naruto's target.
"Holy crap!" Yasuhiro gasp.
"He killed Monokuma!" Asahina yell.
Monokuma's head was cut off his shoulder by the quick strike of Naruto's combat knife, the toy bear's head rolled toward Naruto.
Naruto grew large grin "I will free us all." He said.
"Ok…what going on?" Yasuhiro asked everyone.
"Naruto is that you?" Makoto asked.
"Maybe…" He answered "I am in his body I am speaking with his voice, and you're asking if I'm Naruto."
"Are you Obito or Menma or are Naruto's Despair?" Kyoko asked.
"Obito I am not, Menma…such a weak name. I…I am the one who bring Despair to those I hate."
"Ok I am confuse," Asahina sweatdrop "Naruto, bring back Naruto."
"I am Naruto, the real Naruto or I rather liked being called Despair." He said.
"Hey asshole give me back my Naruto!" Junko yelled.
"Never! I won't be harm again, especially by the likes of you she-devil." Naruto's eyes were filled with rage and darkness, Junko looked hurt after hearing his cold words.
"Now things just got really fucking crazy. Finding out the truth gonna be a pain. I'm confuse as fuck, how the fuck we're going to solve this?!" Mondo sighed, while Naruto smiled.
"That is correct. What meaning is there in yearning for the truth? You must instead close your eyes and live in blissful-"
"I don't understand what the hell you're talking about?" Yasuhiro said, while everyone else sweatdrop.
"Very well…" Naruto coughed to clear his throat.
"Hey, boys and girls! It's Naruto's existential fun time!" He said with a cheerful smile.
"The world of the day…FUTILE! As in: "Your Futile Hope existence has no meaning."
Naruto turned to stare at Asahina "Hina, do you know any other words that starts with F?"
"False Naruto." She glared.
"Excellent! Now, all together." He sang "Your futile Hope has no meeeeaan-ning!"
"Knock that kiddy shit off!" Mondo shout.
"Enough! Who are you really?!" Makoto shout.
Naruto smiled faded into an anger frown.
"Okay, let's get serious. I'm gonna fucking kill everyone in this room." He glared. Everyone eyes widen in shock, he was kidding right? They thought. Naruto grew a scary and creepy grin, no he was seriously.
"But first…I'm going to show you something beautiful." Naruto said with a wide grin "A wonderful future where…everyone screaming for mercy."
"You want to protect the world, but you don't want it to change." He said while looking at the camera, he knew the world was watching this trial and those who took his hope were watching too.
"We're all puppets, tangled…in strings." Naruto looked down at Monokuma's head which was at his feet. He grabbed the head and looked at it with a look of anger. He was no puppet of anyone, especially those who made his life hell.
Knowing his big sister was a pawn, another fragment of Hope that was created but wasted away without a care. But to them she was a puppet control by their strings, he was their puppet as well but she saved him, Naruko sacrifice herself so he may live, the word strings, oh how he hated that word.
"Strings…" He crushed the Monokuma's head with his bare hands, in which surprise everyone knowing how strong Naruto really was, looking upward at the camera.
"But now…I'm free…there are no strings on me…" He said giving a sinister smiled.
"Who are you talking to?" Asahina asked Naruto.
"The world, the people of Hope, my friends, everyone. Yasuke it's ok, you can tell the others the truth." Naruto sudden swift to a calmer personality, did he change to another one, was the question everyone had in their minds.
"The truth?" Makoto looked confuse.
"Makoto, think about it. But remember he dies we all die. Think about it." Byakuya said.
"Naruto…" Makoto thought back to everything that has happen to them thus far, from day one up to this point. Then it hit him.
'Because I gave her hope.'
'The Ultimate Despair shall return Naruto can't save everyone.'
'The world shall know true Ultimate Despair!'
'You're trap in the school, no way out. Only way out is to murder a student!'
'I switch places with Junko just for a day.'
'THAT'S IT!' Makoto's eyes shot open.
"I got it!" He said with a voice filled with hope.
"Got what?" Chihiro asked Makoto.
"Mukuro you said you and Junko switch places just for a day right?" Makoto asked the Ultimate Soldier.
"Yes, that's right." She nodded.
"Tell me…how did Junko get into the school if it was locked up?" He asked.
Everyone eyes but Naruto and Yasuke widen in shock.
"Good job." Yasuke smiled "Seem you remember that error."
Naruto said nothing he only stared with a bored frown.
"Um…Um…" Junko was lost of words.
"Yes, Junko please explains did you enter the school if we were trapped." Byakuya frown.
"I can explain." Junko chuckle nervously.
"Then explain!" Both Yasuhiro and Asahina yell.
"Monokuma said there was no way unless we murder a student. The killing games hasn't started yet we all awoke inside the school without our memories, if so then Mukuro shouldn't remember switching placing with you." Makoto also added.
"And to top on it we lost two years of our memories here!" Mondo yell.
Both Mukuro and Junko eyes widen while they bare their teeth in a frowning expression.
"Both of you are lying! You two knew each other from the start!"
"Of course they know each other." Naruto spoke.
"How do you know that 'Naruto'?" Byakuya asked the Uzumaki.
"Because Mukuro and Junko aren't just best friends. Their sisters twins sisters."
"SISTERS!" Yasuhiro, Makoto, Mondo and Byakuya yelled together.
"TWINS!" Kyoko, Asahina, Chihiro and Syo shouted together.
"Junko it would seems the game is up." Mukuro spoke in an emotionless voice.
"Huh?" Kyoko and Asahina notice something was off.
"Yeah, but hell it was fun while it lasted huh." Junko smiled, she chuckle in a creepy manner.
"Ok shit is getting weird." Mondo frown.
"The older sister tough and strong that was Mukuro, the young cute and smart sister that was me," Junko spoke in an emotionless yet bored voice.
"YAHAHA-HAHAHA ME! JUNKO FUCKING ENOSHIMA!" Junko's expression suddenly switched to a wild foul mouth, Junko had her tongue stuck out and her eyes were filled with an insane glaze.
"Together we were the Despair sisters aka THE ULTIMATE DESPAIR!"
"Whoa she's a like a totally different person…like Naruto." Yasuhiro gasp along with the others.
"B-But they have different names. How are they sisters?" Asahina asked Naruto.
"Because explaining that reason would be so damn boring." Junko let out a disappointed sigh.
"You…you're the Ultimate Despair!" Makoto pointed at Junko and Mukuro.
"No," Naruto said.
Naruto walked over to Junko and Mukuro.
"WE are the Ultimate Despair!" He corrected Makoto.
"Why? Why? WHY!" Makoto yelled in anger.
"Why set up the killing games?" Naruto smiled.
"Naruto, this isn't you!" Asahina said.
"Tell me, have any of you know what it's like to taste Despair every day, every second, every time you take a breath?" Naruto asked everyone.
"Makoto, Asahina, Yasuhiro, Toko, Chihiro you guys still have your family. Makoto you have your mother, father, little sister. Asahina you have your little brother. Toko you have your parents, Chihiro you still have your dad." Naruto smiled at his friends, however this smile wasn't just a normal or sick smile, it was a smile of pity, sorrow, jealous, guilt.
"What do I have left? I have no father, no mother, no sister, no family left. My grandmother die long after my mother's passing. I HAVE NO ONE LEFT! I AM ALONE! I HAVE NOTHING BUT DESPAIR! I HAVE NO HOPE!" He shouted his friends.
"But what about Gaara? Wasn't he your brother too?" Asahina asked.
Naruto fall silence upon hearing about his little brother.
"To make things worse. The school of Hope. This school's system so fuck up. Hope can be created but can also be replaced so damn easily. HOPE KILLED NARUKO! AND NOW I WANT GOING KILL YOU!"
Naruto took out another combat knife.
Junko and Mukuro waited as Naruto would end the last remaining students of Hope.
STAB
STAB
Junko and Mukuro blink twice, they felt a pain a deep pain in their stomachs. They looked down and saw Naruto stabbed both of them in the stomach.
"Naruto what did you do!" Makoto yelled.
"Junko! Mukuro!" Asahina shouted.
Mukuro looked at Naruto with a look of betrayal. Junko however, looked at Naruto as if she did something wrong.
"Naruto…why?" Junko asked.
"Naruto…how could you…" Mukuro fell to her knees.
Naruto thrust his knife deeper into Junko as blood draw out more. He looked at Junko with a soulless glare.
"I'm not your Naruto. So Junko tell me how does it feel to be killed by the man you love?" He ripped the knife out from her stomach as her blood spatter on his face.
"Damn…this sucks…but to feel…such Despair…" Junko fell to the floor.
"You killed my mother, you nearly killed me three times. You've been a very bad girl Junko. And bad girls get punish." Junko couldn't keep her eyes open, her sight started to burr, the sound of Naruto's voice quickly became mute to her ears.
Naruto looked down at Junko and Mukuro for about two minutes.
"Tsk," He looked away with closed eyes.
"Now then…to finish the rest." Naruto turned his attention to everyone.
"Naruto, snapped out of it! You stabbed Junko and Mukuro!" Makoto yelled.
"Sorry, but Naruto's not home. Despair has check in, but I can't help you. You are students of Hope, I want the people of Hope to taste Despair! I'm going to kill you all."
"Hey man, we can talk this out…" Yasuhiro sweatdrop.
"No." The Uzumaki shook his head.
"No, no, no. No more questions, time to run, time to scream…time…to die."
"EVERYBODY RUN!" Yasuke shouted.
Yasuke grabbed the knife that killed Monokuma and threw it at Naruto, Naruto dodged it and when he looked back, everyone was gone.
He looked up at the TV screen at the capture students.
"I'll save you guys later." He turned his attention to a camera.
"EVERYONE THE FINAL STAGE IS HERE! WATCH AS I GUT THE LAST REMAINING STUDENTS OF HOPE! WATCH AS YOU ARE POWERLESS TO DO A SINGLE DAMN THING!"
Naruto walk his way to the red doors, the hunt is on.
As he left the Trial room, Mukuro show signs of life as she opened her eyes. The stab impact wasn't deep enough to be fatal, but Junko however, wasn't so lucky her stab was enough to become fatal.
Mukuro got up she held her wounded stomach with her right arm. Looking down at the bleeding Junko, Mukuro grabbed Junko's right hand and dragged her.
'Have to save Naruto.' Her thoughts were.
Main Hallway:
"Why are we running? We got enough man power take his ass down!" Mondo said to the group.
"Because one, Naruto no…Despair won't hold back. To him we're not his friends."
"Hey you guys….come out, come out, come out whatever you are!" The group froze upon hearing the psycho Uzumaki's voice.
Makoto and Kyoko ran into the Nurse's office while everyone else ran to the second floor.
"Really? Hiding in the nurse's office? You guys might be dumb as shit!" The Uzumaki yelled.
The Uzumaki entered the room and first thing he went over to was the bed he flip the bed over to expose Makoto and Kyoko hiding spot, but however they weren't there.
"Where the fuck did they go?" He asked himself.
Then it strike him, the locker behind him open as Kyoko launch out of the locker holding a cutting knife and stab the Uzumaki in the right shoulder. He back hand Kyoko away from him, Makoto appeared from underneath the second bed in the room, like Kyoko he had a cutting knife.
Makoto stabbed Naruto in the back.
"GAH! YOU SHIT!"
Naruto grabbed Makoto by the throat and smash him against the wall. He held his combat knife against Makoto's throat.
And just when it seem he was about to slice Makoto's throat.
A quick image flash in his head, the image was Naruto smiling with Makoto and the others.
"Gah!" Naruto shut his eyes.
"Naruto…I don't know…if you can hear me…but hear me out…you got to take control. Please you can't give up…you have to win it back, you can't give into Despair. You…" Makoto felt his throat crushing.
Another flash image appeared in the Uzumaki's head, the image this time was Naruto, Naruko and Kushina smiling together in a family photo.
"Naruko…" Menma loosen his throat crushing grip.
"Yes, think about what Naruko would say, what she would do. You're sister was the Ultimate Hope; she gave her Hope to you. You CAN'T GIVE INTO DESPAIR!" Makoto yelled.
'Hope…Hope…Hope.' The word Hope runs through his mind again, again and again.
'You are my Hope, my shining Hope.' Naruko's voice was heard.
He felt himself losing control. Naruto let go of Makoto, Makoto ran over to Kyoko to check on her.
"No…Naruto don't listen to them!"
"You hurt…Junko and Mukuro." Makoto heard Naruto's voice, his friend was returning.
"They were in your way! Junko was just using us! She the mastermind here! She's just a block in your path."
"I love Junko, I LOVE JUNKO! SHE KILLED MOM I KNOW…BUT I FORGIVE HER, WHY CAN'T YOU!"
"Because…I WILL NEVER! JUST LIKE THE OTHERS WHO HURT US! JUST LIKE JIRAIYA HE HURT US, HE HURT NARUKO WE MADE HIM PAY! AND SASUKE HURT US! JUNKO HURT US! I WILL KILL ANYTHING THAT PAINS US!"
"GET OUT! GET OUT! FUCKING GET OUT! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" Naruto screamed bloody murder.
"I CAN'T! I'M A PART OF YOU! I WON'T LEAVE YOU!"
"If you are a part of me…then I'll cut…I'll cut you out!" Naruto looked at his knife.
"NO YOU IDOIT! DON'T! IF YOU DO THAT WE'LL DIE! EVERYONE YOU, ME, OBITO, EVEN NARUKO!"
Naruto quickly became silences which bother Makoto and Kyoko "You killed Junko. Naruko…she…Naruko would have forgiven her. I am the Ultimate Hope…also I am the Ultimate Sacrifice….I'll sacrifice you."
"You fucking idiot! Who protected you when you nearly die all those times, ME! I save you all those time, getting run over by a car, the abuse from the former homes, Junko stabbing you! I KEPT YOU ALIVE! YOU NEED ME! AND I NEED YOU!" Despair Naruto shouted.
'Naruto…' The Uzumaki heard Naruko's voice.
'It's ok…you do what you think is right. You are the new Hope in this world. Please don't fall into Despair. Make the right choice, whatever choice you make I support. And remember I will always love you.'
"Sis…" Naruto shed a drop of tear.
'Naruto no, don't do it!' Despair yelled.
"Thank you Naruko." Naruto smiled.
"Naruto…" The Uzumaki heard Mukuro's voice. He turned his head and saw a wounded Mukuro and Junko being dragged by her.
Junko opened her eyes slightly, she was alive. Nearing death's door but alive!
"Naruto…" Junko said weakly.
"Junko…thank you for loving me, Mukuro thank you for supporting me." Naruto looked at Makoto and Kyoko.
"Makoto, Kyoko…thank you for being my friends. Goodbye everyone."
STAB!
Everyone eyes widen in deep shock, Naruto just stabbed himself with his combat knife, but that wasn't the shocking part, it was where he stabbed himself.
"He stabs himself in the…head…" Kyoko said while covering her mouth.
Mukuro walked over to Naruto slowly, Junko dragged herself along, the two sisters frown at the sight of what Naruto did to himself.
"Naruto…" Junko spoke his name before she closed her eyes, she was losing too much blood.
"WAIT! If Naruto dies than we're!" Makoto yell.
"HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!" A new voice spoke.
Makoto, Kyoko and Mukuro looked at the entrance of the Nurse's office as they saw a group of men wearing full bodied-body armor these men were a part of S.W.A.T, which mean…
"We saved." Makoto smiled.
"It's over…" Kyoko said with a sad frown.
Four hours later: Unknown Hospital
Makoto was in the waiting room, he was sighing a lot. His mind filled with worry. But he wasn't alone, beside him was Kyoko.
It wasn't easy thing, to find out the truth. Naruto was a part of Ultimate Despair a group who's goal was to spread Despair across the world. Naruto wasn't just a member, he was one of the Co-Founders of the group, the others being Junko and Mukuro.
"It will be hours before they finish. Waiting to be an old man are ya?" A voice spoke. Makoto looked up and saw it was Yasuke.
"What do you want?" Makoto asked in a sad voice.
"Waiting for them to be done won't help you. Naruto helped them, Naruto is a Despair."
"He's not a Despair! He's a person, he's my friend!" Makoto shout.
"Makoto…" Kyoko placed her right hand on his left shoulder.
"So you guys finally remember or you believe on what you found?" Yasuke asked them.
Makoto didn't answer he only glared.
"How did you enter the school?" Kyoko asked Yasuke.
"There was a secret passage through the school's gym to the outside. A hidden floorboard, I sneaked in during the third day. While you guys were sleeping I encounter Junko and tie her up." Yasuke explained.
"Why have us go on with the killing games? And have us tried to kill Naruto, what if we really did went along with it?" Makoto asked Yasuke.
"I knew you wouldn't. Naruto played his part, he was the Hope you guys needed. But at the same time you gave Naruto Hope, Makoto." Yasuke told him, Makoto couldn't help but felt there more to the story.
"How is it you know Naruto? Naruto said you took Junko from him?" Kyoko asked this time.
"Mukuro was Naruto's best friend during childhood, and I was Junko's. Junko and I grew up together, but as time went on so did our relationship. There a time where Naruto and Junko broke up, I didn't know but she told Naruto I was her new boyfriend, it was a lie to cover her hurt feelings. But that one event happen…" Yasuke frown.
"Event?" Makoto asked.
"Junko forgot who she was, and took under a different name. She and I got real close however. Little did I know it was a part of her plan, testing on the memory lost gas and before I knew it, Junko regain her memories and attacked me. I would have been dead if it wasn't for Naruto. Junko nearly stomp my head in, Naruto stopped her and left me for dead. I was later found by a two men named Danzo and Sarutobi. The old farts nurse me back to health, they told me of the killing games and who was behind it." Yasuke shook his head.
"So you sneak in to take control of the killing games."
"No…my originally plan was different. I was task to killed Junko and Naruto. Freeing the students of Hope came second. I could have killed Junko when I capture her, but I didn't."
"You grew up with her, she was your friend. It must be hard to deal with taking the life of a childhood friend." Makoto frowned.
"Yeah I thought so too, but I remember she nearly stomp my head in, this scar is one hell of a proof." Yasuke pointed at down line scar on the right side of his face.
"What going to happen next? I mean with us and the other students?" Makoto asked Yasuke.
"That's up to you. You guys are free as a bird. But the world is screwed up thanks to Ultimate Despair. The others members saw Naruto's betrayed and 'Junko's fall' they won't be silence so soon."
"But that was Menma controlling wasn't it?" Kyoko said.
"Don't know tell ya the truth, may have been or was it really Naruto's Despair." Then Yasuke looked at the ceiling of the room while sighing.
"What?" Makoto and Kyoko asked.
Yasuke grew a smile and shook his head "Nothing, forget what I said."
'He knows something.' Kyoko glared at Yasuke.
'In the old videos, Junko and Mukuro was busy setting the killing games up, but who helped Naruto into the school? Naruto didn't know about the secret passage and the only way in is the front door. Someone, someone helped Naruto but who?'
The door open as a tall female doctor came out the woman had short black hair with black eyes. Her name was Shizune, she was Naruto's therapist but she is also a doctor.
"How is it?" Yasuke asked Shizune.
"Junko will survive Mukuro wasn't stab too deep as Junko was. We're still working on Naruto. I am truly surprise he's still alive even after jamming a knife in his head. He truly lives up to his talent of Ultimate Survivor." Makoto and Kyoko let out sigh of relief upon hearing the news on their Uzumaki friend.
"One more thing you all should know…" Shizune looked away with a very displease look.
"What is it?" Makoto asked Shizune.
"Junko Enoshima is pregnant…"
"WHAT?!"
Elsewhere: Unknown
"So Junko-sama was killed by Naruto. Man what a big surprise huh." A male voice spoke in the dark.
"Guess Hope won huh? Bet you're happy aren't ya?" A female spoke in the dark.
"Yes I am. But I am also bit disappointed in Naruto-kun actions. I thought the final part would be a better end, however I would give it a B-." A second male spoke in the dark.
"Their going to come after us next." A second female spoke.
"Yes but it won't work in the end. Despair can't be rid of so easily. They may have our leader but we're not out of this game yet." A third male spoke.
"Hey what do you think?" The second female asked a person.
That person was a long black hair young man, the young man's eyes were red. The long hair young man was looking at a picture, what picture it was, was unknown.
The long hair man walked toward a door and opened it.
"Hey where ya going?" The first male spoke.
"I'm going see a friend. I can't stand around and do nothing, it's boring. The end of the killing games just brought something interesting to the table." The long hair young man said.
"And that is?" A female asked.
"A New Ultimate will be born…very soon."
Back at the Hospital: Two hours later
"Hmm,"
Mukuro opened her eyes to only find herself in the Hospital, however she wasn't alone. She was sharing a room. In the room with her was Junko and Naruto, both were unconscious. There were bandages wrapped around Naruto's head, there was a breathing mask placed on him and Junko, they suffer the most damage.
"Finally up I see." Mukuro heard a very familiar voice.
Mukuro slowly rose up to see, sitting in a chair beside Naruto was the very same long hair young man whom she met before.
"What are you doing here?" She asked in a weak voice.
"We watched the whole thing, so I came to see if you three truly fall. Seem you survive, with those stab wounds you shouldn't. I guess Naruto's talent really kicked in huh?" The long hair young man guessed.
"Did you come to finish us?" Mukuro asked him.
"No, but it would seem our leaders are down, but not out…I guess. They will question you to the fullest. Yasuke originally task was to kill you three."
"How did you know that?" Mukuro looked worried.
"Remember I'm a super genius, like you I'm an Ultimate. Judging from the head wound Naruto deliver himself he'll be out of the game for a very long time. I'm disappointed I wish to have a chat with him since the other side was killed."
"Killed?" Mukuro raise her right brow.
"It was his plan or so I think. Or did he plan to strike in an area would he wouldn't survive, but here he lies alive but unconscious. I would if he's brain-dead?" The long hair young man touched Naruto's face, he poke Naruto left cheek, he waited to see if he would get a reaction, however he didn't.
VROOM!
The young man dodged what appeared to be a wooden chair. The wooden chair smashed against the wall.
"Don't…you…DARE…touch him!" Mukuro said with a raging glare.
"So the puppet has broke her strings? Or have she started to see the world see her, whatever the case I see that Naruto will be protected until we meet again." Mukuro blink twice, she had to make sure she thought she saw the young man was smiling or at least smirking.
"Goodbye Mukuro, if Naruto ever wake up. Tell him he has become an interesting person." The young man open the door and left.
Mukuro lay her head down on the bed, Mukuro turn her head looking at her best friend and her little sister.
'I'm not a puppet…not anymore. I don't care if they call me a puppet or a tool…long as Naruto needs me I don't care. I couldn't win your heart, but I won your friendship.'
'Naruto…you are my Ultimate Hope…'
Hope Peak Academy: Trial room
The room was dark, the lights within the death trap school was cut off. The school was empty as a shell, this event of the failed Killing School would leave Despair in the mind of the world, even though it ended in failure, the seed of Despair still planned.
There the head of the smashed Monokuma lay there.
The Monokuma red eye glow as it still had some power left inside.
"Ah, to think it was a failure. Oh how shitty this turned out. Naruto was so close to Ultimate Despair." Monokuma spoke.
There standing before the Monokuma head was a person, who the person was unknown.
"How did it felt to see your big brother go insane like that? Did it filled you with Despair? You a student of Hope, blood of your family drown with Despair."
"…"
"I wonder how Naruto feel knowing Naruko lives inside him now? They cut open a part of Naruko's brain and implant it in his. Fuck up no? Oh what do you care your just their half brother born from a borrow womb, mommy couldn't birth you how do that-"
The unknown person stomp on the Monokuma's head killing him for good.
Suddenly the person cell-phone ring, the person answered it.
"Yeah, it's me." The person spoke.
"Find anything?" A female voice was heard over the phone.
"Not much beside a taunting bear." The person sighed.
"Bring the head and body back, we could find data on it still."
"There's one thing that still bother me and I know its bothering Yasuke too."
"What is it?"
"If Naruto, Mukuro and Junko were at the trial, who control him? And not too long ago Monokuma was talking to me, he knows who I am, and before that Monokuma chatted with Makoto and Kyoko just who the hell was controlling Monokuma?"
"I don't know Gaara, and that worries me. I hope this is the last we seen of Ultimate Despair."
"I highly doubt it Temari, I really do."
