To Survive (Chapter 1 Part 7)

I sat down. I looked down at the CD in my hand. Should I fall for it? I was really deciding if I should watch it or not... I want to watch it knowing that it might reveal some kind of truth, but at the same time I don't want a reason to kill... I shook my head. Not knowing won't help me here. 


I slid the CD in and waited for something to appear.  A few seconds in I heard his voice. 


Monokuma: Unfortunately, I couldn't  find anything for you, so watch this documentary!


Already this was out of the ordinary. "He couldn't find anything", what was that suppose to mean? Did he mean that even out of here I have no idea who I am?


As the documentary went on, I learned a bit more about the Silent Assassin. They were believe to be young. Apperently their signature weapon is either a crossbow or a sword. The body was always postioned laying on the back with a finger on their mouth, like the corpse was saying to be quiet. Although these details were only hypothesis apperently.


All of this was so weird, didn't Byakuya say there wasn't that much info about them? If so how did Monokuma accessed to all of this information, could it mean that... Chihiro was right? That there is a possibility that either both serial killers teamed up or the Silent Assassin is the mastermind...


At the end of the video, Monokuma appeared. 


Monokuma: I hope you enjoyed that kiddo! Now use this information well! Oh and before leaving, if you wanna find the truth about yourself. See ya after graduation! 


The video ended like that, leaving me even more confused than ever, although this didn't seem to be a "motive" video that much... But which still confused me is that... he couldn't find anything worth it to motivate me... what the hell was my life then. I must have at least one thing I held dear to. 


Deep in thought I hadn't even noticed Sayaka running out chased by Makoto. Or even the others talking. At some point, my shoulder was shaken. 


Aoi: Asu, are you okay?


I looked away... Should I show them? I think it's best if I do. 


Asu: I'm... confused. 


Byakuya: What do you mean by that?


Asu: Perhaps you'll share my confusion when you watch the video. 


Chihiro: Isn't it a little personal? 


Asu: Quite the opposite, it might enlight us... on who is doing this.


Kyoko: Let's just watch the video.


I restarted the video as all of them watched carefully, as the video ended, Leon was the first one to react. 


Leon: What the hell is that!? Why is that important?


Asu: If I remember correctly, Togami said there wasn't any known info about the matter. If Monokuma had access to these confidential information, that means these must come from somewhere.


Kyoko: So you if I understand your logic you're saying that, either the Silent Assassin is the mastermind or that they teamed up with them or it's a total different story. 


Asu: Exactly. Chihiro's guess might not be so far off then what we thought. 


Mondo: But why showing this to you?


I shrugged my shoulders. 


Asu: I guess that's part of the "motive". 


Byakuya: I'm going to ask you a question, and you have to answer it. 


Asu: I'll answer to the best of my ability. 


Byakuya: Who are you? 


Asu: I'm Asutoraru Supiritto, I am a 17 year old girl. 


Byakuya: Is that it?


Asu: Yes. 


Byakuya: Don't you think it's weird. 


Asu: Of course it is, but is there anything I can do about it. 


He looked at me with a susipicious glare. The silence dropped in the room.  Soon enough it was interrupted by Makoto and a running Monokuma screaming about a flagpole? Although he quickly disappeared.


Makoto: Sayaka is okay she's in her room. What is going on here? 


Asu: Watch this. 


She played the video once more letting him sit down where she was previously. As the video ended, he was shocked. 


Makoto: Why is your motive video that way?


Asu: I do not know, but I intend to find out the truth. Now if you'll excuse me. 


Mondo: Wait where the fuck are you going!?


Asu: Searching for clues. 


I left the room and went into my room. All of this was confusing and so I decided to write it all down. Sometimes having things on paper helps seeing things clearer. After a while of doing so, I started getting a headache and decided to head to the dinning hall to get some tea. To my suprise Aoi and Sakura were already there. 


Aoi: Did you find anything yet!? 


I shook my head. 


Asu: Unfortunately no, I wrote everything down, but nothing. I believe I won't find the answer now, but at least we have some leads. 


Sakura: You're right, I'm sure the truth to this place will be revealed sooner or later. 


Aoi: Since you're here do you want some tea? 


Asu: Sure, I was actually coming here for that same reason. Let me just go get something in the kitchen.


After I took a drink of water, I sat down with them and we chatted a bit. Although later, Sayaka came in, she looked shaken up. 


Asu: Sayaka are you okay? You seem-


Sayaka: Of course I'm fine! I'm just getting some water.


She tried to go to the kitchen, but I grabbed her wrist. I pulled her in a hug. 


Asu: If you need to talk, I'll listen. 


I wasn't sure what had gotten me to do this, but I felt it was the right thing to do. 


Sayaka: Thank you, I swear I'm just thirsty though. 


Asu: Alright. 


She went to the kitchen and left in a hurry. I tried to make nothing of it, but it was bothering me. 


Asu: I'm going to head to my room, I will see you tommorrow morning. 


Aoi: Goodnight Asu!


Sakura noded. 


Asu: Goodnight. 


I headed in my room getting reading to go to bed. I fell asleep right away. 


However, something else was about to go down...
