Murder Game XIV: Monokuma's Awakening

[Atomyk]

Jude scoffed. "You've got to be joking, Rant. Even if Monomi was somehow responsible for all of this, how does killing Wanda fit into that or benefit her? Is it stupid for Monokuma to do any of this when it accomplishes exactly what he's been talking about this whole time?" Jude balled his hand into a fist, glaring Rant's way. "Try to touch Monomi, and I'll have to do something drastic. I use my strength to protect, never to hurt. And..."

Jude looked over to Jack. "... There's no one here with Wanda's strength that we know of. Everyone's... abilities have been drained. It seems Wanda only has a bit of hers as she's an anomaly."

"Upupu... funny story. What if I told you Monomi wasn't all sunshine and rainbows? I did say she was the bad guy, after all! She may say her intentions are good, but how far is she willing to go?"

"N-No... You're wrong... I've only tried to help everyone...!"

Ignoring all this, Diana gave Stiles a confused look. "Okay... but how does that help us? Did Wanda say anything about anyone?"

Ignoring all this, Diana gave Stiles a confused look. "Okay... but how does that help us? Did Wanda say anything about anyone?"

Stiles looked at her. " She mentioned something about two suspects that may prove to be important to the case. She also mentions what she may have been attempting to do in her last moments," he said. " It ties back to my strange dreams question," he added.

Honda quickly turned his head to face Stiles, coughing. "She, uh...knew about the dreams?"

Honda quickly turned his head to face Stiles, coughing. "She, uh...knew about the dreams?"

Stiles nodded. " She specfically mentioned that you and Shane were having these strange dreams," he commented.

Stiles nodded. " She specfically mentioned that you and Shane were having these strange dreams," he commented.

Honda gulped. "Well, dream for me, but...Er...did she say anything more about those?"

Honda gulped. "Well, dream for me, but...Er...did she say anything more about those?"

Stiles looked at him and gave the answer. "She believes you are strong enough to fight whatever was causing them," he said.

"Oh." He laughed a bit nervously. "Well, that was nice of her!!"

"Oh." He laughed a bit nervously. "Well, that was nice of her!!"

Stiles nodded and decided to turn to Shane. "However, the same could not be said for Shane. She was afraid of you being a powder keg," he said to Shane.

"Oh?" Rant stood up and flipped off his podium. After taking a moment to be impressed with himself he walked around the "ring" the podiums created.

"Been a while since I caused some trouble..." Rant said in a hushed tone as he stops to look over to Jude. "So, Doc, it would seem you are an idiot. Threatening me? You really are a funny guy. Please come at me! Then if I decide to punch her it's one less hero to worry about."

Rant then looked over to Monomi and Monokuma. He examined them closely before cleaning out his ear and flicking the dirt to the floor. His eyes then locked onto Monomi.

"You are the sketchiest rabbit I've ever met. I've met quite a few. I'm gonna beat the shit out of you. Bet." Rant spoke breaking his gaze and continuing walking around the room. He then raised his hand again.

"I'll go with my gut on this one. Monokuma. I'm leaving it at that. So done with thinking." Rant said looking back to Jude. "You comin' at me or was that a bunch of fluff?"

Rant would feel Poison's riding crop cracking him on his ass. "You're the most obnoxious and loudest rat I've ever seen. Do you just love hearing yourself talk that much? Or is it because you're a real squeaker?"

Rant turned around and tackled the woman then tried to pummel her there on the ground.

"I ain't a rat! I'm a mouse!" Rant shouted.

 

[Atomyk]

Jude stared back at Rant, not moving a muscle. His eyes twitched to look at Monomi beside him. "You can bait me all you want, but I'm not going to attack you. I'll stop you from attacking Monomi, that's all."

"Th-Thank you Jude, but..." Monomi rubbed at her face. "It's okay... I don't mind being beat up. After all the beatings Monokuma's given me... I can take it."

"No! That's not right! Why can't we all just... stop fighting!"

Oh great, the mouse was at it again. Honda sighed, irritated at how this trial was being derailed. "Say, Monomi...if you had the power to switch Ruby and Wanda... does that mean you can switch people around in general? Teleporting them?"

Rant turned around and tackled the woman then tried to pummel her there on the ground.

"I ain't a rat! I'm a mouse!" Rant shouted.

Limber enough Poison would dodge her way past the rampaging rat. "Is that really everything you can do? You know a girl likes some good foreplay before getting to the rough stuff." She winked at the poor creature not wasting any effort to try and attack it. "And if you're a mouse prove it by being as quiet as one!"

 

[Atomyk]

The little rabbit shook her head.

"No... that's not how it works! I can't do that... The dark place wanted to isolate you all, but the diver gave me the power to join you. When it was taking you all, the dark presence, it... Mm..." Monomi shivered, looking unwilling to continue. "... Monomi wasn't supposed to tell you all this! It was supposed to be a relaxing school trip... When you were taken, the hope was that the darkness, and Monokuma, would be forced out! But I failed..."

"Diver? Crap, I heard that somewhere before..." That'ts right-the woman who had the lamp. "Do you mean Tom? Does Tom actually have a connection to us?! I thought that old lady was just rambling!!"
​

@Atomyk

 

[Atomyk]

"Uu... Y-Yes! Tom is... the diver. Do you remember what you were told before? This dimensions uses creativity and memories, but the diver can too. He's spent so long in this place, working to destroy it from the inside... he... he made me from Kyoko's memories to act for him! Monomi was supposed to protect you until he could arrive and save you all, but it was too much. At this rate, it will all be over before he gets here..."

Monomi lowered her head and sobbed into her hands. Jude placed a comforting hand on her shoulder and shrugged at the others. "It's all over..."

Stiles looked over at her and paused. " What do you mean that he made you from Kyoko's memories?" Are you saying that you are not real?" He asked.

[Atomyk]

"I am real... just not in the same way as the rest of you. I'm still squeezably soft! There are people here... everyone you meet... some were taken here and stripped of their memories, while others are made from their memories!"

Victoria seemed to reach a realization. "So... Blackwell... and Max? Were they..."

"I don't know," Monomi said, her voice lowered so that Victoria could just about hear her. "I don't know, but that's how it is in this place. But it doesn't make them... or me... not real! They still feel, have consciousness, gain memories, and forge bonds!"

"Ugh..." Diana's head was lowered as if she was feeling sick, her hair obscuring her face.

"Okay, wait." Jude knelt down next to Monomi so that she and he were on the same level. "This is important, so I need you to think. Are some of us here created from the memories of others...?"

"Umm..."

"I am." Diana raised her head, taking in a deep breath. "Or so I was told. This is so messed up, I know... In that other scenario, with Byakuya, we were told that we were created from the memories of our originals. Originals who still existed outside this dimension. Some of us had gained their memories, because, I think we were basically them? Or copies of them. Those who had regained their memories were given the choice of leaving, thanks to this diver... probably the same one. Ugh..."

Jude had straightened up and had turned to Diana. He leaned over his podium to get a closer look at her. "Diana... you met this diver?"

"Yes... He gave those of us who didn't regain our original's memories, like myself, two choices. He said the darkness still had some kind of hold over us, so... all we could do was follow the diver or risk going out on our own in the dark place. I didn't follow, and I ended up here. I guess... those who did go with him ended up as these Saviors of his."

"Yes! That's right!"

"Are you fucking..." Diana grumbled, rubbing at her forehead in frustration. "If I had gone with them, I wouldn't be here? What was I thinking...?" Letting out a deep sigh, Diana met Jude's gaze. "I've been keeping this from you because you didn't seem to remember. I think I get why. You see, Jude... during that scenario, you died."

"What...? I don't..." Jude took a step back from Diana, staggering backward. "It's true that I... have lost my memories. But I didn't think... I'm dead?"

"Well, no, clearly you're alive. I guess. Dying in this place isn't forever."

Stiles was getting more and more confused with each passing moment. " But how do we know if we are really here or created from someone else's memories of us? Do we all know if we are real f we were brought here- or..... what does this mean?" He asked, clearly confused. He felt real. He turned to Diana. " What do you mean that dying in this place isn't forever?" He asked. He looked at Victoria and paused. " Or you were created from Max's memories..." he added.
