DR2 5(21-2)

00 days left

It feels like .... I had a happy dream.

It was probably a dream about my childhood.

Thanks to that, I began the day feeling slightly better.

Right, today is the last day.

The last day, and ... the day that Monokuma talked about.

... hrk!

Suddenly, my body began to shake.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I was overcome with horror stronger than I had ever felt before.

It felt almost like I was the only person left living in the entire world ...

That kind of ominous feeling.

Like there was no one else left on this island ...

Souda, Kuzuryuu, Owari, Sonia ...

All gone ...

I suddenly felt unable to believe anything, like the world was all a complete lie ...

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Almost like I was trying to run away from my horror, I ran out of my room.

AlAlmost like I was trtrying to run away from my horror, I rararararan out of my room.

As soon as I came out of my room, I saw someone.

NANAMI CHIAKI: Ah, Hinata. I’m glad I ran into you.

What do you mean ... you’re glad you ran into me?

NANAMI CHIAKI: You remember that laptop with the message from Komaeda at the factory?

Oh, you mean the one from that bomb scare ... what about it?

NANAMI CHIAKI: Apparently there was another message, a sequel, on that laptop.

...what?

NANAMI CHIAKI: It had a time-based lock, so we could only see it after a certain number of days had passed.

NANAMI CHIAKI: Maybe ... he didn’t want to show us until the trial was over?

Wh-why ... would he do something like ...

NANAMI CHIAKI: Maybe ... it’s like some kind of will and testament that Komaeda left behind?

Komaeda’s will ...?

Where is it?

NANAMI CHIAKI: At the restaurant. We were all about to watch it together.

Oh, okay ... to the restaurant, then.

OWARI AKANE: Hey, you’re late!

HINATA HAJIME: ... Is it true? That there’s another video message from Komaeda.

SOUDA KAZUICHI: It’s all thanks to Sonia-san! Sonia-san found it!

SONIA NEVERMIND: I discovered it in the factory by chance while walking the hamsters with Tanaka-san!

TANAKA GUNDAM: Ha, by chance? Far from it, we were led to this by the the forces of causality!

SOUDA KAZUICHI: Why did Tanaka take a walk with Sonia-san? I don’t remember agreeing to this.

KUZURYUU FUYUHIKO: Let’s look at it, quickly.

Yeah, let’s ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Hm ... I wonder who’s watching this message?

KOMAEDA NAGITO: The traitor working for the Future Foundation?

KOMAEDA NAGITO: If so, congratulations ... it must have “ended as I hoped.”

HINATA HAJIME: Ended as you hoped ...

KUZURYUU FUYUHIKO: Komaeda’s goal was to kill “everyone except for the traitor” ... fuck ... Monokuma was right ...

SOUDA KAZUICHI: So he was really ... trying to turn the traitor into the culprit so that they would survive?

SOUDA KAZUICHI: Why the hell would he ...

TOGAMI BYAKUYA: Stop with such useless things. There is more left.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: But ... if this is being seen by “the other kids and not the traitor” ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: It’s regretful, but that means that I lost.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: This is the opposite of what I had hoped, but ... it’s not like there’s much I can do about it ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Since no matter what the result is, it’s of no concern to me - I’m dead.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Then, I’ll stop with all these useless statements, and go ahead to the true matter at hand.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: I don’t know which side I should talk to, so I’ll talk in a way that should be understandable to both.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: First, as to why I would have done what I did ... there must be those of you who are curious.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: I simply ... followed through on what I had stated as my intentions.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: As a reward for completing the Final Dead Room, I was told the secret of a “certain truth” ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: It would have been bothersome if the rest of you found out, so I disposed of those pages ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: But it was still stunning. Surely ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Although the Future Foundation traitor must have known that from the start...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: But then, I can't be too hard on Hinata-kun, can I? When I also truly admire the star role...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: .... still, once I examined Monokuma’s actions in this new light ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: I began to understand his goals.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: His efforts to give us hope by dropping hints about the secrets of this island or information about the Future Foundation ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Were so that they would eventually lead to the “worst despair” ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: And ... Monokuma wants to show that despair to “someone” ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: That truly is ... a despair-inducing truth ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Who is Monokuma, really, to be able to come up with such a plan?

KOMAEDA NAGITO: But ... that’s enough of the past, let’s talk about the future.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: If you want to free yourselves from Monokuma’s schemes, you need to go to “that place” ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: And the key to that place ... is “that message” from the castle of mice.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: It seems as though originally you had to follow some sort of formal procedure to access "that place

KOMAEDA NAGITO: But that message bypasses that, by creating a sort of shortcut.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Might it have been left not by Monokuma or Monomi ... but that “someone”?

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Although it’s of no importance to me ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: I felt the need to conceal it until my plans were finished, but there’s no need for me to continue to hide it now.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Then ... I present to you the password ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: 11037

KOMAEDA NAGITO: That ... was the password written in the castle of mice.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: You can use this to get into “that place.” That’s how you can escape from Monokuma.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: All right, that was a lot, but ... that’s all I have to say.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: My role in this story is over now ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: But I have faith. That my actions will be the cornerstone of the hope of the world.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: And ... if that indeed happens ...

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Praise me.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Tell everyone of my feats.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Raise statues to me.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Worship me.

KOMAEDA NAGITO: Call me ... Super High School Level Hope.

..........................

That was ... Komaeda’s last message ...

SONIA NEVERMIND: The 11037 password that Komaeda-san spoke of ...

KOIZUMI MAHIRU: That’s it! It’s the password into those ruins!

NANAMI CHIAKI: We should hurry ... I think. Let’s get there before the countdown hits zero.

HINATA HAJIME: ... all right, let’s go.

We don’t have time to just stand around ... let’s hurry to the second island, the one with the ruins!

SONIA NEVERMIND: I feel rather nervous ...

SOUDA KAZUICHI: What the hell is in there? Is it really okay ... for us to go inside?

KOIZUMI MAHIRU: Boy, you sure are scared ... how do you even call yourself a man?

NIDAI NEKOMARU: The countdown is almost finished! We do not have time to dillydally!

OWARI AKANE: Yeah, this is gonna be our last chance to get in there!

TSUMIKI MIKAN: M-my heart ... is pounding and ... I think I need to go to the bathroom ...

HANAMURA TERUTERU: Ah! If you’re going to take a dump, will you do it into this bowl?

KUZURYUU FUYUHIKO: Hey, this isn’t the time to screw around ...!

PEKOYAMA PEKO: You have no need for concern ... I will protect the young master.

PEKOYAMA PEKO: Here, come with me.

KUZURYUU FUYUHIKO: ... don’t treat me like a kid.

TOGAMI BYAKUYA: You must believe that hope awaits us! This is your leader’s command!

MIODA IBUKI: Oinkoink, oinkoinkoinkoink, oinkoinkoink!

TOGAMI BYAKUYA: ... what are you doing?

SAIONJI HIYOKO: I tauuuught her that. That you have to talk to big brother Togami in pig language~

MIODA IBUKI: I said “Ooh, handsome!” in pig language!

TOGAMI BYAKUYA: ... I will kill you, I swear!

NANAMI CHIAKI: Hinata-kun, could you enter that password?

HINATA HAJIME: ... oh ... okay ...

HINATA HAJIME: 11037 ... that was it, right?

NANAMI CHIAKI: You don’t need to worry ... because only a “shining future” awaits us.

NANAMI CHIAKI: So ... let’s open the doors of the future.

1 1 0 3 7

OPEN

Through that door ...

Into the future waiting there ...

That shining future ...

All right ... let’s go.

........................................

HINATA HAJIME: Is this .... a trial room?

HINATA HAJIME: But ... why a trial room ...?

SOUDA KAZUICHI: It does look like a trial room ... but it feels totally different from all the ones we’ve been in til now ...

SONIA NEVERMIND: Er ... but ...

KUZURYUU FUYUHIKO: ... what?

SONIA NEVERMIND: Er ... where have ... all the others gone?

OWARI AKANE: ... huh? All the others?

.......................

..............................................

What’s this?

Something’s ... strange ...?

Did something happen to me ...?

.......................

..............................................

No, that’s not it ...

I’m not the one ... who’s strange ...

What’s really strange is ...

................................................................... this world?

(timer hits zero, explodes and disappears; the world shatters and leaves a screen reading)

STAGE CLEAR?
