Welcome to a world entirely determined by our perception.

A world where neither hope or despair truly exists and only nothingness come to greet us after our untimely deaths.

Are you ready for another Killing Game? I sure as Hell am!

For my name is Monokuma, and this time I will make all of you fall into the deepest depths of despair.

Shaking, I got slowly out of my bed. I look around my room only to realize that I am somewhere that I do not recognize. My first thought is to pinch myself to see if I am dreaming again. So I pinch my arm and realize that this is truly the reality of my situation.

The room that I am in is surrounded in the color white and only has three things to notice: a door, a bed, and a window. This bed, unlike the one that I have at home, is white and almost blends into the background, along with the door. However, I notice that outside the window is a sea of black with stars littering it. I am truly in space, the final frontier. One side of me thinks that this is cool while the other is screaming internally.

"...What...?" The word falls out of my mouth.

"Welcome to the true Killing Game, my beautiful students! Please get out of your room like the fully grown kids that you are and escort your asses to the gym! I believe in all of you!" A voice, strangely familiar to the one in my dreams, echoes throughout the room. Then I hear a loud beep coming out of my pocket. Still confused, I grab inside my coat pocket to see that there is a pad of some sort inside. My curious nature gets the better of me and I press the button to turn it on. The screen displays my name and the talent that Hope's Peak has given me.

Shiro Amari

Ultimate Composer

I find it weird that it is addressing me as my old talent from my days from Hope's Peak, considering I and the rest of my class have already graduated. In these days, there is a second Hope's Peak since the first one was destroyed in the Tragedy. The Committee wanted as many students as possible with unique talents, so I was enlisted along with forty-nine other students. It was an interesting experience that makes it much easier to have jobs composing now than earlier since most forms of music have been banned or not that popular. Except for First Light, the only popular fringe band left.

"C'mon, my students! We don't have all day!" Listening to the voice closer, it sounds like the one Monokuma used to have. But that cannot be possible! Sure, the voice in my dream said so too but that does not mean that Monokuma is here! Now, this only makes me more curious than before and have a thirst for solving this little mystery.

With that, I reach the door and open it, starting my adventure into this new adventure of mine.

Surprise! Plot twist! There's a story that is part of this series I have going on. Yes, this is related to Forest of Despair, and, yes, this has always been planned.

These two stories will be running next to each other and there is a schedule. Forest of Despair updates first, and then The Despair in Our Stars.

Shiro is the only character that has graduated Hope's Peak, and the others are from a different class from him, so do not worry. He is truly the only one. I promise.

Oh, and this time there are only sixteen students, so it won't be like the craziness of Forest of Despair.

This is all planned, don't you worry. Now for the rules~

1) No Mary or Gary Sues.

2) No canon talents or talents that are in the story Forest of Despair since these two stories are set in the same universe. And, well, the Committee does not like repeat talents.

3) You can send the maximum of three characters.

4) PMs only. No review OCs will be accepted.

5) No bullying. If you are mean to me, or any of the fellow people on this website, your OC will either not be chosen and be ELIMINATED.

6) Have fun! :D
