Chapter Text
(2nd Floor Library)
(Wolfheart)
Yo, Oscar, you got a second,
(Oscar)
I've got a rough draft of the screenplay.
(Wolfheart)
Good, so you're still in the writing process; I have a suggestion courtesy of Volga.
(Oscar)
Go on; I'm listening.
(Wolfheart)
So here's the idea, The crew finds a large treasure chest, and inside, there's a metric fuck ton of golden coins, but amongst the piles of gold is a ring. We decide to split the gold among the crew and give the ring to Volga as a gift.
(Oscar)
Yes, that will work; I can write that in somewhere. Thanks for the feedback, Wolfheart; Gil will be expecting a finalized script by this afternoon, which is in about 1 hour.
(Wolfheart)
We should get everybody gathered up in the auditorium.
*Ding Dong Bing Bong*
(Monokuma)
Attention everyone, please gather in the gym at your earliest convenience. It's motive time!
(1st Floor: Gym)
(Gil)
Whatever you want from us, we're not interested
(Dave)
Yeah, we have no intentions of playing along anymore.
(Kyrex)
7 People died already; no way in hell we are finding an 8th. If everyone quits, then the game is forfeit
(Volga)
I admire your bravado but reminder that there's a traitor among us, and I assume a Mastermind as well; as long as those two key pieces are still in play, there's no way this game is ever going to end.
(Monokuma)
Puhuhu, I'd listen to your lover there, big guy; speaking of the killing game, I heard about your little plans to put on a play, so now would be a perfect time for me to introduce a new motive,
(Wolfheart)
What kind of cockamamie bullshit did you come up with this time.
(Monokuma)
Back by popular demand, the motive video; on each of your monopads, you'll find a video file labeled yourname.motive, I promise this is actually your own motive video; there is no tomfoolery like with the secrets. That's all from me, chao bitches!
(Wolfheart)
So should we have one giant movie night?
(Dave)
That might be a bad idea.
(Kyrex)
Oh, don't be such a pussy; if we all know each other's motives, no one has any reason to kill anyone.
(Volga)
We can deal with the motive nonsense later; Oscar has finished the script, and we have a play to rehearse for.
(4th Floor Auditorium)
(Gil)
Alright, places, everyone, let's begin dress rehearsal. Stage Crew, get started on costumes and makeup for the talent. Audience members, take your seats. Actors line up to get fitted.
(Juuichi)
Ok, I have the captain's costume here, Wolfheart. I need your measurements.
(Volga)
Lucky for us, the costumes for the minor roles aren't as high maintenance; I can get Hiro, Dave, and Walter outfitted pretty quickly.
(Kyrex)
I'll handle Kenji's first mate outfit.
(Gil)
Excellent, stagehands; once you're done here, get backstage and be ready to draw the curtains and do other stage crew stuff.
(Oscar)
Ok, I have a copy of the script for everyone here. I made some last-minute additions.
(Wolfheart)
Let's begin time for me to showcase my terrible pirate voice.
(3 hours later)
(Gil)
Alright, that's that; we'll perform the actual play tomorrow. We should check out those videos Monokuma mentioned.
(Wolfheart)
I think there was a projector in the AV room on the 1st floor; we can plug the monopads into that and cast our videos on the big screen.
(Walter)
Not the kind of movie night I was anticipating, but we can make it work; we can meet up in the AV Room later.
(Volga)
You guys go on ahead; I need to make sure I cleaned up everything backstage.
(Kyrex)
I'll help you!
(Juuichi)
Six hands are better than 4; it'll get done faster If I help you guys.
(Volga)
No, that's Ok; we got it from here.
(Gil)
Oi, just say you're going backstage to bone; no need to beat around the bush.
(Kyrex)
Wow, jump to conclusions much. I was going to check to ensure there weren't any death traps set up; I meant it when I said I wanted us all to get out of here.
(Wolfheart)
That might be so, but until we know who the traitor and Mastermind are and remove those game pieces from the board, none of us are getting out of here. Meet us in the AV room when you're done fucking each other.
(1st Floor AV Room)
(Wolfheart)
Ok, I'll go; first, Monokuma said it was on our monopads, and the filename was ourname.motive, let's see what we got. (plugs in monopad to projector)
(Monokuma VO)
Back by popular demand, it's the motive video. Who is the most important person in your life? William, the Ultimate Sherriff, loves his town more than himself; it would be a shame if something happened to it.
(???)
Sam, have you heard from William recently? He hasn't shown up at the station in over a week, and I know he frequents your workplace.
(Sam)
To tell you the truth, Tod, I haven't seen him in a while. This is strange, this town is known for having crazy shit happen all the time, but people straight up disappearing? That's a new one.
(Tod)
Well, he has to be around here somewhere; he can't have just peaced out and skipped town. Something bad might have happened, and we need to find him ASAP; a town cannot survive long without its sheriff.
(Monokuma)
What will become of William's friends and his precious town, *Answer to Be Revealed upon Graduation*
(William)
Hang on, why would Wolfheart have my video? I thought Monokuma Said he didn't switch them around. Ok, Let me go next. (William plugs his monopad into the projector and opens his video)
(Monokuma VO)
Back by popular demand, it's the Motive Videos; whos the most important person in your life? Wolfheart, The Ultimate *Error Video File Unable to be played, please reboot*
(William)
Huh, I guess Wolfhearts motive is corrupted; I guess you'll never find out who's waiting for you on the outside.
(Volga and Kyrex enter the room)
(Volga)
Guys! Monokuma tricked us; the videos are all shuffled around. I had Grant's Video.
(Grant)
Well, save the others some time and tell me what you saw.
(Volga)
Ok, well, it was a school kind of like this one, except less modern and looking more like a medieval castle; two people were arguing, saying something about ESP or something.
(Grant)
I think you meant EP, and if I had to guess, I'd say it was his royal douchiness Theo and My best bud Argo.
(Volga)
There's more; they also said something about Oscar. If I had to guess, I'd say Oscar and Grant have similar motive videos.
(Walter)
So we've confirmed Volga, William, and Wolfheart got different motives. Let's watch the rest of them and figure out who was which motive.
(Wolfheart)
Good idea, Grant; since we know Volga has your video, why don't you go next?
(Grantly)
Of course, (Grant follows the same process the others did)
(3 hours later)
(Wolfheart)
Ok, that's everybody, right, now we're all on the same page, and nobody has any reason to kill anyone. Let's go to bed and perform Gil's play tomorrow; I'm sure nothing will go wrong.
