The morning announcement just went off and Monokuma mentioned something special. There's only one thing it could be... Another motive...

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Kirari woke up, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. Monokuma was so annoying! She got out of bed, got dressed and went to find everyone else; finding a sleeping Ash. Ash jerked away, woken up by Kirari's movements.

"Oh, good morning." She spoke sleepily, still very drowsy.

"Hi, Ash."

"Morning." She nodded as she began brushing her hair.

After she was done, she walked towards the bathroom, turning around to look at Kirari.

"You go on down to breakfast without me. I gotta get dressed, I'll be right there." She blushed a little and turned back around.

"Alright!" Kirari headed out of the room but decided to wait outside.

Soon enough, Ash was ready. Stepping out of the room, she twirled around in a pretty floral dress as she tried it on.

"What do you think?" She asked.

"Wow! You look great." Kirari told her, blushing.

"You really think so?" Ash asked again, blushing as well.

"Yeah." She nodded in awe.

"Thank you." Ash spoke, blushing heavily.

They stood in awkward silence for a little.

"Let's go get breakfast." Ash spoke, breaking the silence.

"Yeah." Kirari agreed as they headed to the kitchen.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Sancia forced herself awake. Another day of extreme paranoia and being on the verge of insanity by loneliness. Today, she DID need to go to breakfast though. Monokuma had another motive for him. She pulled herself from her bed, making it quickly before cleaning herself up in the bathroom. She then threw on one of her famous black jumper and pushed open her door, locking it behind her.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Despite many things, Ray had gone to sleep and woke up because of Monokuma's announcement. He got out of bed and without making his hair or putting in his earrings, decided to start being more vigilant.

"You up yet?" Daiko called to him.

"No." Ray groaned.

"Come on, Ray." Daiko sighed.

"Why?" Ray asked.

"Breakfast... And Monokuma wants to give us another motive." Daiko told him.

"I'm not hungry and Teddy McAsshole can't motivate me so I don't see the point in going. Plus, I'm not awake." Ray replied sarcastically.

"Just get up." He sighed.

"But why?" Ray asked, yet again.

"Because I'm asking!" Daiko pointed.

"Hi asking, I'm Ray." He shot back, finally leaving his room after tying hair.

"Fucking hilarious." Daiko crossed his arms.

"I know, I'm already better than you." Ray commented sarcastically.

"Definitely not." Daiko shook his head.

"Whatever, let's get going." Ray sighed.

"Already on it." Daiko began walking.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Stevie was already in the kitchen, humming to herself as she finished breakfast. Ash then walked into the kitchen, followed by Kirari.

"Now, as much as I LOVED your pancakes, you absolutely MUST try my omelettes." Ash suggested.

"Alright." Kirari nodded with a smile.

Ash started moving, using her professional gardening skills to move quickly and precisely. In no time, she had whipped up a few omelettes. Some for Kirari, some for herself and some for their friends!

"Tada!" She cheered, wiping sweat from her forehead,"Dig in!"

"Wow Ash, that was fast!" Kirari took a bite,"It's delicious, thank you!"

"It's my pleasure." Ash said happily,"I'm glad you like it!"

"Now that's cute." Stevie hummed, sat at the table already.

Ray walked in, stretching his arms,"I wonder who'll be stupid enough to fall for Teddy McLonely's motive next."

"Not me." Daiko sat down.

Sancia then pushed open the door, stretching slightly.

"Hey, fellas." She muttered, pulling at her collar.

She moved towards the table, her eyes lighting up as the smell of omelettes surged over her senses. She really had no idea what she what she had missed out on. But still, out of her stubbornness, she attempted to hide her excitement. She wasn't really sure if she succeeded though.

"I thought you were calling him Teddy McHomicide." Kirari commented.

"He's always coming up with new ones." Daiko sighed as Terishi walked in.

"Ah, hi Terishi!" Kirari smiled.

"'Sup." She nodded, sitting down.

"Ash made omelettes, they're really good." Kirari told her.

"I can see that." Terishi nodded again.

"You can have as many as you want!" Ash spoke happily,"There's plenty to go around!"

"It's fine, I'm not hungry." Terishi shook her head.

"Hi, not hungry." Ray grinned.

"You love testing my patience, Ray." She sighed.

"No, I'm just ticking everyone off so I can finally die and get the hell out of here." Ray chuckled.

"Not gonna happen, mister." Stevie pointed.

"Well, if you won't kill me... You know what I'll do and you can't do a thing about it, ma chère, not a single thing." Ray smirked.

"Watch me." She crossed her arms.

Ray rolled his eyes,"I would say challenge accepted, except you aren't a challenge. You're merely a stepping stone on my way to death. You can't stop the inevitable. Why can't I die anyway? Who the hell cares if I die?"

"I care." She pointed,"And Daiko and Akira care as well. There. That's three."

"Can everyone just slow the fuck down and eat their food?" Kirari muttered.

"You... Akira owes me so if I tell her not to care, she won't and Daiko will get over it. That guy has seen shit he shouldn't have." Ray countered.

"You can't make me not care." Stevie told him.

"OH MY GOD! Ray, please stop. No death talk at the fucking table." Kirari pointed.

"First off, Kira, no naughty words around your beloved one, not a good move. Second, buddy ol' pal, why do you care? Caregiver my ass, I haven't done anything to help you! I may have given you trauma rather than helping you. So why?!" Ray asked in a lie voice.

"Because I want to!" Stevie raised her voice.

Ray then backed away from the table.

"We can continue this later, I've lost my appetite." Ray hissed, making a whole 180 on his heels before marching off.

"I thought you said you weren't hungry when you came in? And, uh, sorry for swearing. That argument was driving me crazy." Kirari apologized.

Stevie crossed her arms and sat back in her chair.

"No, I was just making fun of Teri who said she wasn't hungry." Ray called back as he left the dining hall.

"I'm leaving." Ash announced in a forced calm voice; she started walking away before turning back to Kirari,"Come on."

"I'm coming." Kirari stood up, internally fretting,"She seems mad. Did I do something wrong? Oh no! Stupid me! What did I do? Did my cursing bother her?"

Stevie watched as the pair left before taking a sip of her water. Ash exited, followed by Kirari and walked with her to another room. Kirari followed Ash into the library, still worrying about upsetting her.

Ash then noticed that Kirari was upset so she turned and asked,"Everything alright?"

"Oh nonono! Everything is fine! Did my swearing bother you? I'm sorry!" Kirari spoke hurriedly.

"No, not at all!" Ash told her, now feeling sorry that she made Kirari feel that way,"I was just upset with Stevie and Ray."

Ash then laughed at the kind of 'hiss' she spoke with.

"I could never be mad at you, Kirari." Ash spoke softly, hesitating before taking Kirari's hand,"Promise to be friends forever?"

"Yeah." Kirari smiled.

"Aw, how sweet!" Monokuma popped up.

"WHAT THE-" Kirari jumped.

"What are you doing here?" Ash asked, embarrassed that Monokuma showed up during her moment with Kirari.

"I have a moment for you two lovebirds." He hummed.

"Lovebirds?!" Kirari blinked,"Also, we don't want to hear your stupid motive!"

"Too bad!" Monokuma handed them an envelope each,"These contain your deepest, darkest secrets!"

"Kirari...?" Ash grabbed Kirari's hand and squeezed it hard; whispering,"I'm scared.."

Kirari squeezed it back and whispered,"I won't let you get hurt."

"Well, I'm gonna expose all your secrets if nobody dies within the next twenty-four hours!" Monokuma informed them.

"What if I tell everyone my secrets?" Kirari countered.

"Well, I can't stop you but from what I've seen, most people don't want to reveal their darkest secrets." Monokuma shrugged.

"That's true..." She muttered.

"Some secrets are worse than others but I'll give you a clue~ Someone here's secret is that they've killed someone before!" Monokuma laughed before disappearing.

"WHAT THE?!" Kirari blinked.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

From Jay's dorm you could hear the song 'Smoking out the window', then a screech, a crash, an owl hooting and "THIS BITCH!"

"You good in there?" Terishi asked them.

"DO I SOUND GOOD?!" Jay yelled.

The door swung open and Terishi could see that Jay's wavy hair was a mess. A snow white owl was perched on their bed, the sheets were torn and the room was a mess.

"The goddamn creature flew in out of nowhere! This bitch." Jay flopped down on their bed, frustrated.

"Just thought I'd ask." Terishi chuckled,"You want some help?"

Jay sighed and slapped the owl atop the head, though not very hard. The owl squawked in offence and fluttered up to perch atop one of their books. Jay threw up the middle finger at the unnamed owl and spun to look at Terishi.

"What's up?" They asked.

"Just checking up on you when I heard, well, chaos." Terishi shrugged.

"Eh, I'd rather get out. I'm starving! What about you?" Jay tilted their head.

"Well, I was just at breakfast but I didn't eat anything so I can walk you there." Terishi offered.

Jay grinned,"Thanks."

"Let's g-" Terishi turned.

"Boo, motive time!" Monokuma popped up.

Jay screamed, flailing their arms and falling over. They sat up abruptly and the owl screeched in alarm at her scream and began flying around, sending papers flying everywhere. As all hell broke loose, Jay threw up the middle finger at Monokuma.

Monokuma ignored the commotion and handed both of them an envelope each,"Now, these contain your deepest, darkest secrets!"

"Great, thanks." Jay grabbed the note and threw it onto their bed,"Mousie, eat that horrible letter."

Mousie promptly pounced onto the letter, the white owl's hooked talons digging into the envelope as it attempted to eat the paper.

"Well, that's your motive." Monokuma pointed,"If someone doesn't kill in the next twenty-four hours, in exposing everyone's secrets!"

"Hmm." Jay glanced back at Mousie,"Thinking about this, that envelope may poison you. But hey, serves you right for the mess you've made. I'm making you clean it all up after this."

The snowy owl glanced up, cocked it's head and flew up, straight into a stained glass window.

"Silly owl, there's no way out. That's just a wall! All the windows are plated up with metal." Monokuma shrugged.

"Hm, maybe you could go find someone who has a message. All I have is this owl, a book and barely any knowledge of what's going on so..." Jay rose their eyebrows,"Sorry dude, completely wrong person."

Mousie, whether out of pure stupidity or pure desperation, it was hard to tell which, flew into the wall again.

"Aw, but I worked so hard on these motives for everyone." Monokuma sighed.

"Aw, that's okay." Jay spoke in a very flat, unsympathetic voice,"I'm sure someone will get murdered in the next twenty-four hours. After all, thousands of people around the world die every day."

Terishi scanned over the paper,"How the hell do you know this information?"

"I think you should know by now not to question the bear." Jay told her.

"I should but... Nobody knows this about me." Terishi shoved the paper into her hoodie pocket.

"A piece of advice. Next time, just feed it to the owl. Mousie will eat anything." Jay pointed.

As if to prove a point, Mousie began trying to chew one of Jay's books with her beak. Jay yelped and ran over, prying the owl off and throwing their middle finger up at her.

"Maybe you should ask Cia for help later, she's an animal trainer." She suggested.

"Hm, maybe." Jay nodded.

"Right, let's get some food. Shall we?" Terishi began to walk.

"Sure!" Jay tossed one last middle finger at Mousie and began running,"Okay, dining hall is this way, right?"

"Mhm." Terishi nodded.

"Nice!" Jay cheered.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Stevie sighed, still in the kitchen and drinking her water as Jay burst into the room.

"IM MAKING RAMEN!" They declared loudly.

A few stray, white feathers drifted from their wavy hair and their sleeves had several talon marks on their sleeves from Mousie. They began viciously rummaging the cabinets for a packet of ramen noodles.

"They're in the top right." Stevie hummed.

"Thank you!"

Jay grabbed the pack of ramen noodles and began breaking the large block of dry noodles into four pieces in a bowl, filled the bowl with water and popped it into the microwave. Instinctively, they pressed the 'Add 30 seconds' button eight times to make a total of 4 minutes and began to hum. Stevie finished her water, the glass soon being taken by a girl none of the others had seen before. Jay took no notice as they had barely seen anyone else before.

"Yūrei." The girl answered before Terishi could speak, walking out.

There was a beep and Jay took the ramen out if the microwave, fumbling out of it and almost dropping it as it was hot. Jay sat the ramen down at the table before grabbing the flavour packet, dumping the chicken flavoured goodness into the noodles and mixing it with a spoon. It was twisted at the handle and a silvery-blue colour.

"Enjoy your ramen." Terishi sat back in her chair.

"I will." Jay blinked,"This will be very undignified."

Without going into too many details, Jay pretty much murdered the ramen noodles in a minute. Tops.

"Rest in piece, ramen." Terishi chuckled.

Just outside of the room, Jay heard a meow and scowled.

"If this bitch sent me another-" They paused,"One moment, please."

Jay dashed out of the room and began chasing after a grey and white cat.

"Y'know, I'm not even surprised." Stevie sighed.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Ray had walked out of the dining hall, muttering curses under his breath as he marched to... Wait, where was he going? Ray stopped and just leaned against the wall, sighing.

Jay rushed past him, chasing a random white and gray cat and hissing under their breath,"Bitch! Bitch! Bitch!"
