Chapter 10 - Dark times await
Monokuma just made the night time announcement. Great. Luckily, there's no motivate as of yet so they should be safe... Right?

As per usual, Ray monitored the halls after his nap.

Kirari awoke slumped on the desk, rubbing her eyes and trying to get herself into a state to at least get back to her dorm.
"Why am I so tired? I barely did anything today." Kirari complained.
Ray poked his head through the door,"Yo, Kira. You awake?"
"Partially." She replied.
"Get back to your dorm, Teddy McHomicide made the evening call." Ray sighed.
"Alright. Love that nickname you made up for him, will be using it." Kirari got up.
"On your way back, make sure not to die and watch out for bodies. You should also watch out for psychopaths that aren't me." Ray gave her a salute before walking off.
"Psychopaths that aren't you... Noted." Kirari spoke and walked out of the room.
"See ya, boss." Ray waved,"Oh, and go save your girlfriend!"
Ash was also asleep, head on the desk as well. She didn't budge as the two left the room. Kirari then ran back in.
"Ash, Ash wake up! What if Monokuma catches you?" She asked, gently shaking Ash awake.
"Huh- What? Monokuma?" Ash spoke sleepily, looking up at Kirari; mumbles,"How long was I asleep?"
"Well, I'm not really sure but Monokuma has made the evening announcement so we need to go to bed." She answered.
"Okay..." Ash trailed off as she stumbled to her dorm,"Good night."
"Good night, Ash." Kirari nodded.
Kirari entered her dorm and flopped onto her bed.
"Go save your girlfriend!" Ray had said.
"Girlfriend? I wish." Kirari thought.
Unbeknownst to her, Ash smiled as she thought of Kirari, drifting off to sleep.
"Why would Ash like a girl like me?" She thought sadly, falling into an uneasy sleep.

Jay was under the covers reading 'Wings of Fire; Legends: Darkstalker' with the covers over her head and the door locked.

Akira skipped along the halls, occasionally flicking her lighter on and off because the fire was pretty. Just like... No! Stop thinking about it, it will never happen.
"Hey, Akira." Ray waved.
"Ray!" She smiled.
"Hey, mon ami." He nodded.
"Having fun?" Akira asked.
"Never."
"Me either, I'm bored." Akira sighed.
"Hi bored, I'm Ray." He laughed.
"Very funny." Akira rolled her eyes.
"I'm a comedic genius." Ray grinned.
"Daiko's career is in danger." Akira chuckled.
"Indeed." He nodded slowly,"But on a more serious note, any bodies or missing people?"
"Nothing to report so far, captain." Akira saluted him.
"Alright, keep your eyes open." Ray saluted her back.
"I will." She nodded.
"Good, good. When I saw you coming you looked... Dazed, by the fire. Is there something on your mind? Is this school finally getting through that thick skull of yours?" Ray asked, jokingly.
"Nah, it's just pretty." She shrugged.
"Sure it is.." Ray nodded slowly.
"Come on, look." Akira flicked it back on.
"You're strange, have I told you that?" Ray raised a brow.
"Probably." She nodded.
That made Ray start chuckling.
"It's pretty." Akira pointed.
"Meh... Opinion." Ray shrugged.
"It's pretty... Dangerous." Akira hummed.
"Like you." Ray noted.
"Aw, you're so nice." Akira told him, putting her lighter back in her pocket.
"That's what they all said before they started choking to death." Ray spoke in a quiet voice.
"You should really keep all that stuff in your head." Akira started to skip off.
"I would, but it's too full of madness." Ray half joked.
"Fair enough." She called back to him.

Stevie just left the kitchen, spotting Ray in the hallway.
"Hey, Ray!" She called to him.
"Hello." Ray said.
"How's your evening going?" Stevie asked.
"Terrible." Ray chuckled.
"Oh, would you like a cookie?" Stevie raised a brow.
"Nah." Ray sighed.
"Your loss." Stevie shrugged, taking a bite out of it.
"Why are you still up anyway?" Ray asked.
"Just keeping myself busy." She replied.
"Take it from me, you need rest." Ray sighed.
"Not gonna happen." Stevie crossed her arms.
"Well then, Ms Insomniac, what do you intend to do?" Ray raised a brow.
"Eat cookies." Stevie shrugged,"I didn't think that much about it."
"After you're done with the cookies, I meant." Ray said, exasperated.
"No clue." Stevie shook her head,"Wander about, I'm not bothered."
"That's my thing, but alright." Ray shrugged.
"You can share the corridors." Stevie pointed.
"No... I don't think I can." Ray replied, crossing his arms.
"Why not?" Stevie asked.
"There can only be one. Plus, last time you were by yourself, you got K to the O'd." Ray mocked her.
"I can defend myself." Stevie scoffed.
"Press X to doubt." Ray joked.
"I can when I have... This!" Stevie then pulled out a frying pan.
"Someone with a hammer won't be scared of a frying pan, nut job." Ray shot back.
"Will too!"
"We'll see." Ray commented sarcastically.
"I suppose we will." Stevie began to walk away.
Ray walked off in the opposite direction, self-righteously.
