07 - Motivation

"Before you do that, I have an announcement! I figured I'd ease you all into killing by giving you motivation to kill!" some yells could be heard and disturbed faces could be seen. No blame here, I get pretty shaken up whenever I see Monokuma too. He's just so... uncannny.

"Well? Your announcement?"

"It's not terribly important, but... It's easier to stay alive by being an obvious goody two-shoes, right? Being thrust into a killing game doesn't mean you'll be able to kill someone easily... so I figured I'd ease you guys into the killing game by giving you motivation to kill."

There was no amount of money, fame, or anything else I could want that would make me take someone's life.. maybe my own but I'd be dead so I wouldn't get anything out of it. There was no way anything thing he proposed to us would trigger something in our teenage minds to kill. I stood in silence while I waited for Monokuma's dumb motive.

"Now then.. the special motive I've prepared is called the First Blood Perk!" He screeched at the top of his lungs if he had any. His smile never changed; still plastered on his face, but somehow his announcement made it look more freaky.

"Sounds stu-"

"For the first murder that occurs, no class trial will be held! Can you believe it? That means the first one to kill someone will get to graduate, no strings attached!"

I frowned at my sentence being cut off for another time. I thought it was stupid, but this actually might be serious. No class trial? So then.. we just need to kill to leave? No reprecussions? Nothing?

"I'm sorry that I made the class trial seem more important than it really is... So for the first murder, I've decided not to hold a class trial at all."

"Huh? That's all!? We just gotta kill someone to get outta here!?"

"I was thinking the same thing.. sounds way too easy." I agreed with the strawberry blonde.

"That's all"!? What's that supposed to mean!? Please just calm down!"

Our fascination with the free pass ended not too long after it was announced. Everybody got reasonably angry with Monokuma, saying he was making a joke out of us and that we'd never kill for any reason. Kaede, of course, especially emphasized this.

"Puhuhu... Spare me your false bravado. You should be focusing on how you plan to survive. You just gotta kill someone, right?" The bear chuckled behind his paw. As mad as everyone was, the hippie Rantaro seemed calm. He actually complimented Monokuma's plan. No one sees this as fishy??

"Huh? What's that?" Kaito scowled.

"We all know it's better to cooperate rather than betray each other, right? But if you don't cooperate, you receive some benefit that no one else gets," Rantaro spoke tranquily. "It's an incentive to betray the group to give yourself an advantage. With that in the back of all of our minds, we're less likely to cooperate."

"That's Monokuma's plan." He ended with a not-so-nice look on his face. His smug, assured expression changed into a dark one rapidly. "To make a non-cooperative game that tanks Kaede's plan to get us to cooperate."

"Oh great so we're being forced to play," I said in distress. I wanted to dramatically slide down a wall like people do in the movies.

Suddenly, Kaito yelled, "His objective doesn't matter! I'm through letting him have his way!" He lunged towards Monokumo, presumably trying to get a hold of him which was stupid considering..

"Rise and shine, Urshine!"

"Hell yeah! Looks like we've got ourselves a volunteer!"

"Finally, it's time for the Exisals!"

"We won't let you lay a hand on Daddy! We want Daddy to smile every day!"

"Youse bastards better pay attention! This is what happens when you mess with us!"

The four out of five monokubs spoke, appearing with the Exisals to come to their dad's rescue. The color in Kaito's face drained. "Wh.. What are you guys planning to do?" he stuttered. His expression was the definition of 'afraid.' Who wouldn't be in this moment?

Even though Kadae yelled "Run" the red Exisal began to charge up. The 17 of us, including Kaito, stood there in horror. I wanted to run and hide. The feeling of wanting to hide under the blankets from any monsters from under the bed rushed through my veins. Was I really going to witness a murder here? Right now?

The machine launched a beam, but none of us were injured. Not in the slightest. It was actually the other way around.

Monokuma was injured. Well.. dead.

"So much for saving pops huh," I joked like I wasn't scared half to death less than 2 milliseconds ago. The kubs started to panic and cry. Somehow, it was the green one's fault even though he was nowhere in the Exisial.

"Wh- What is this? What's going on"

"I'm not sure what's going on, but... Monokuma's in pieces."

"S-Serves him right! He got just what he deserved!"

"Do not celebrate just yet," Kirumi sternly said. "I'm certain he has a spare that will appear momentarily." I really hope not. I hope he's gone for good. I'd rip my eyeballs out if another one appeared.

Well, that hope and dream actually came true. The kubs confirmed that he was truly gone.. and that they were probably going to eat him. Can they eat? Aren't they stuffed animals?

"Hmm... Everything's a complete mess now. But if there's no final boss... then that means this killing game is canceled!" Kokichi declared.

"I don't think so." Rantaro had to ruin our tiny celebration. Why must he be so.. well whatever he is. "Monokuma's just a robot. There has to be someone controlling him."

"Can we just have a happy moment, please? Monokuma is gone at the moment!" I dramatically made hand movements to get my point across.

"Yeah! Don't be such a worrywart! Everything's definitely over now! With the mastermind gone, continuing this game is pretty much impossible." Kokichi backed me up. I did agree with half of his statement. I wasn't completely sure if the game was over. It didn't feel like it. "Which means we win!"

"wai- Wait a minute!" Kaede had to shout over the cheering. "We don't know that yet---"

"Kaede, quit being a buzzkill! Everyone's still annoyed about what you did yesterday!" The checkered minion whined. Was he seriously bullying Kaede.. after he tried to defend her??

"but you just tried to defend her about—"

"When? I don't remember that!"

..Nevermind

Everyone was angry with Kaede for trying to oppose the possibility of the killing game being over. I was happy that Monokuma was gone and I was ecstatic at the fact that there might be no more killing game. The keyword being: might. You can never be too sure. it might be a little hypocritical to yell at Rantaro and then side with what Kaede was saying, but who's really 100% here? No one.

We all went our separate ways after Kokichi was done yapping. I decided to head to my room since I had nowhere else to go. I'm not close with anyone else besides Kaede and maybe Shuichi. Maybe I should go check on Kaede..? Would she even answer her door?

I'll do it anyway.

I exited my room and searched for Kaede's pixilated character. I didn't have to look long. I saw Shuichi standing outside a door. It's clear to know who's it was, the two are kinda unseparable. I subconsciously smiled and decided I'd talk to Keade some other time. The real question is..

Why am I not worried about this freakin' motive??
