CHAPTER 6 EXPLANATION

DAY 1

After the 5th trial, White (Mary Macbeth) is seen talking to Black (William Macbeth). The two seem to be having a conversation, which ends with White saying that she didn’t want to help him anymore. We’re taken back to the POV of Leo, who is awoken by the morning announcement. His doorbell is rung, and in the doorway is Klaus and Michella. Upon asking why they were there, they explain that they wanted to walk to the Dining Hall together, and since Black and White didn’t seem to be in their rooms, it would just be the three of them. Leo accepts the offer, and upon going to the Dining Hall, they notice that White isn’t there. Upon asking Black if he knew where she was, Black answers that he doesn’t, and that he’d been looking for her the entire morning. They all decide they’d be on the lookout for her, before we’re thrown into freetime. At night time, White appears at Leo’s door, covering his eyes before telling him to “Be careful” and leaving.

DAY 2

The next morning, White is in the Dining Hall. While asking where she was, Leo decides not to mention what had happened the night before when White seems to give him a look of mutual understanding. While they’re eating, Monokuma appears in front of them, telling them quickly that they had 3 days to find evidence that can find the mastermind or else they would be executed in trial. Upon hearing this, everyone sets out to find evidence for the day.

DAY 3

More evidence is found, and a request is made for them to all go into trial. Monokuma accepts the request and the trial begins.

TRIAL

As they all point out damning evidence towards the mastermind, it’s eventually revealed that Black’s “Alter Ego”, Blank, or the King of Despair, is the Ultimate Despair, or the Mastermind. The King of Despair also explains how the viewers of Danganronpa are watching through Leo’s eyes, which weren’t implanted by a God -- that was simply impossible -- and that they had been implanted through surgery after Leo had been chosen to be a Danganronpa contestant. After a back and forth of how they all could end it, White tells him enough, and explains how she is connected to the barrier that’s keeping them here. She also explains that she’s not the Ultimate Twin, but the Ultimate Seal, and that they could escape if she was executed. There’s a lot of hesitation from the survivors, even William, who is deeming this ending not an option. However, White encourages her solution, and reminds Leo that he had told her before that he would be there to lead her by the hand, and that she wanted to do the same thing for him. She reminds everyone that the world wouldn’t end without her -- in fact, her being gone would give them the hopeful ending they needed. Leo repeats the words Klaus had given to him before then -- “As long as one tries to take even one step towards the light, the human spirit can never truly be defeated”. To Black’s dismay, she manages to force a vote, and the two are executed and Leo overworks his eyes to burn out the cameras beforehand. Afterwards, the American branch of TS is seen rescuing the survivors -- Leo, Michella and Klaus, and it ends with a blindfold being put over Leo’s now burning eyes.

Sonic Speed Monkey AU

Based on these sketches

Klaus

The second largest (just behind Dog) and the one with the least amount of flight response. His knuckleduster is just a discarded cross necklace that he found. Very protective of the other Speed Monkeys and won't hesitate to rally the rest of Libra to help with things.

.

Steven

He has to constantly find something to activate Esmerelda Blood Freeze, though it has such a limited range that he's more effective just kicking his opponents... No one knows that the excess shadows tailing him are actually his goon squad. Only really loyal to and protective over Klaus.

.

Leo

The smallest little monkey and the one who is constantly and consistently in trouble the most. Squints mostly because of all the sand that gets in his eyes until he found a pair of toy goggles to wear.

.

Zapp

Lil terrorist. Sets fire to a lot of things without activating his blood technique. Usually causing trouble for everyone (especially Klaus and Leo) and gets pissed when little kids call him a "Shiny". But will do whatever you want for enough bananas.

.

Zed

The calmest of them all, but that's because he's a hybrid of Speed Monkey and Sea Monkey. Can breathe both air and water without equipment and has little issue swimming versus jumping (though he hates running with wet fur). He will not hesitate to use his blood trident (especially to snag food from far off).

.

Chain

The most silent of them all, always sneaking around and getting things she wants. Has a massive stash of broken, shiny junk hidden in a little alcove very well hidden from prying eyes.

.

Dog

The largest and sweetest little monkey, except for Deldro being his blood. Usually very popular with small children because of his tame demeanor as he is always getting petted and given treats. Up until Deldro pops out... with his background being very similar with Aligula meshing the two together through (whatever method she was able to do)

.

Gilbert

A very skinny monkey, also a hybrid with natural regenerative abilities. Has looked after Klaus since he was young and keeps up with a small, abandoned playhouse for the Libra Monkeys to gather at. He manages to find all the best food (but almost forces everyone to share if it weren't for Klaus being just as stubborn about that).

.

K.K.

Constantly throwing things that look like guns at people to protect other Monkeys. Keeps up with a large brood of Monkeys as her family, and Libra as a secondary family. As soon as she finds/ makes 'working' guns, she just keeps up with a ton of rocks to fire.

.

Lucky

One of the most serious Monkeys, always carrying a toy suitcase full of scraps of paper from different restaurants so he remembers where the best dumpsters are. Goes all over the city and only occasionally runs with the rest of Libra.

.

Daniel

Annoyed by all the other Monkeys and tries to avoid them... doesn't work at all since he gets into a lot of trouble. Just grumpy all the time and grumbling whenever he has to play nice with Libra.

.

Raju

Vicious Monkey, will not play nice... unless you have food. He fights all the time and has lost feet from having to escape traps. But he still has blood abilities to keep moving and stealing food. Doesn't associate with Libra much... but has been around Zapp and Zed enough to teach them how to survive.

.

Femt

An actual little terrorist trying to cause as much chaos as his little paws can. Can and will bite people, even if given food. Has no problem with releasing all the animals in shelters and pet shops.

.

Aligula

Constantly stalking Dog and being a little terrorist about it. High-speed races through the city trying to get him. She knows how to rig machinery and work vehicles.

Hsppy New Year! Here's to another year of hoping for S3!

[topcatsama]

Was inspired to create this Zapp centric picture after reading sumeragic ‘s fanfiction - all is well that ends. 

If you’re looking for a fic that expands on the canon I recommend it! 

[dark9896]

Tiny rant that goes somewhere....(i promise)

Jelly Belly is just Berttie Bott's rebranded, and not because of the tie-in Harry Potter stuff....no. They have this game called Bean-boozled and they have some NASTY flavors for it.....

Now pls imagine with me:

Leo is talking about this with Zed while he's reading the books. Recommended after Leo was talking about the series with K.K. (Likely cause her sons or hubby likes the series but she can't get invested the way they can 🥲)

Zapp happens to over hear, looks it up....and executes Order 66. Buying as many different sets as he can to give to Klaus. (All mixed up of course)

Klaus accepts the peace offering, but Steven is (rightfully) suspicious. After Klaus has (respectfully) discarded several terrible beans.....

Steven smacks Zapp with a rolled up newspaper, Gilbert confiscates the bowl to sort them with Leo's help (expertise and looking it up). Poor boi tries to help sort but gets lightly popped by Gilbert ("Please, Master Leonardo. Allow me to handle this.")

Steven drags Zapp by the ear ("Ears are for hearing not pulling!" "Not like you use yours properly Monkey Brain.") To force Zapp to buy Klaus some 'good' beans.....(there were some good beans in the bowl, but that's been confiscated until further notice....)

[dark9896]

Unexpected [Indulgent Self Insert]

Uh...yeah....Indulgent self-insert of a separate Pokemon cross over universe. Professor Karume Arjun moves to Hellsalem's Lot since there isn't a professor in that area after deeming it separate from the rest of the United States.

(Klaus)

Klaus leaned back from a game of Prosfair, today they were to help escort several Pokemon transport trucks to a new Lab for one Professor Arjun. She seemed like a well-respected official, if you asked other professors or reasearchers. But the general public weren't too fond of her or her research.

Klaus was mixed himself. On the one hand, seeing those portals rip open the sky some ten years ago, only for these bizarre creatures identified as Pokemon to come spilling forth was terrifying. Second only to The Great Collapse.

On the other, Professor Arjun was a behavioral analyst. Her entire body of published articles were about how to avoid problems with wild Pokemon and proper training methods. So it wasn't like she was doing anything that would get anyone injured.

Perhaps it would be best to not think about it. The only reason Libra was called as an escort was because of how dangerous the Pokemon were. Though, they did have to head out now if they were going to be a proper envoy.

(Professor Arjun)

Waiting for these trucks was the worst, but there was no way around it. Rescued Pokemon were always difficult to transport, especially the ones that suffered the way these had.

Professor Krane called them "Shadow Pokemon". His assistant Rui had coined the term. But really, they just didn't want to be close to humans again. Karume wouldn't want to be close to other humans either, not after being treated like a tool the way these Pokemon had, forced to fight to the death in underground rings.

A soft sigh escaped the tired Professor. Setting up a whole lab with zero help in under three weeks had been no easy task. And her work was barely begining.

The sound of trucks pulling to a stop outside brought the professor back to reality. Her own Pokemon would have to help carry in the cages, specifically her Gardevoir and Gallade. Their psychic abilities would be the safest option.

But first, to make sure the people escorting the Pokemon didn't get themselves hurt.

(Normal)

Leo was hyped to be on this mission. He did idolize Professor Arjun for her work. Even more so when she was helping oversee the training for Michella's seeing-eye Lillipup. It had evolved since then, but it was still the most helpful companion his sister could ask for. More than other people in some cases.

Though that was the extent of it. Leo hadn't really known a time when he wasn't nervous around other Pokemon. Well-trained Pokemon were one thing, he could calm his nerves a little. But the sounds from the back of the truck had suggested nearly wild Pokemon.

Were they wild? Or was it just being in cages that set them off? Leo couldn't be certain.

"So, any idea what this crazy chic is really like? I mean. She works with Pokemon of all things." Zapp was being his usual self, though a hint of nerves was showing, "Like she's gotta have a couple screws loose, right?"

"I'm sure she's perfectly sane." Zed commented, "Her research is quite thorough and her methods can be replicated easily. You're the one with screws loose."

It had not been a very fun trip.

Steven blinked at the rather odd Professor. She fit the whole working with Pokemon part down to a T, physically fit and muscular looking under the lab coat. But also looking a bit wild and bored??? Steven didn't really know what to make of her. This was the Professor sent to Hellsalem's Lot by the League.

Though, she seemed to scan everyone, sizing them all up in one swift glance.

Even Klaus felt somehow small under that gaze, despite being rather kind. The professor was the first to move forward, extending a hand towards Klaus.

"Its nice to meet you, I'm Professor Karume Arjun."

"Klaus von Reinherz." Klaus was ever gentle even in his confusion over being approached so casually, "Would you like some assistance? Or do you have other staff to help unload these Pokemon?"

"Tempting Mr. Reinherz" Professor Arjun smiled warmly, "But I have things handled. I'd rather avoid injury of your people."

Before Klaus could respond, or anyone could really, one of the trucks revved up again. Speeding off with the driver yelling about how Hellsalem's Lot didn't need a professor at all. And before Libra could respond, Professor Arjun was sprinting headlong in that direction.

Klaus instructed Leonardo, Zapp, and Zed to guard the remaining trucks while Chain, K.K. Steven and himself chased down the runaway, and the professor.

Upon turning the corner after the truck, Klaus gasped at seeing such a large Pokemon dashing so nimbly through the streets. Professor Arjun upon its back as if she did this regularly. The large black furred Pokemon leapt gracfully, latching onto the truck and sticking with massive claws sinking into the metal.

Professor Arjun called out, "Trix. Tor."

A Gallade and Gardevoir appeared in a burst of light, using their psychic powers to steady themselves and lift the truck off the ground. Professor Arjun dismounted her Luxray and returned him to the Pokeball.

Steven marveled at the sheer prowess of the Pokemon, more so at the person currently controlling them with ease. Was this the true power of having a loyal Pokemon by one's side?

Gilbert pulled the car around safely to the side and stopped. Even he had to stop and stare a few moments at someone so capable of commanding these powerful creatures without a word. Perhaps the Professor could teach him this kind of training. Head Maid Catherine Bates had hinted in her last call about an update in training Pokemon after Master Reinherz Sr. had discovered this professor's research.

Professor Arjun floated gently down, watching intently as Trix, her Gardevoir, and Tor, her Gallade, carefully extracted the driver from the cab of the truck. She was certain that the police had been informed and would wait, at least until she didn't have to worry about someone attempting to shoot the back of the truck.

She wasn't waiting long as Trix and Tor lowered the truck to a smattering of applause. Klaus and Steven felt their jaws drop as the Professor praised her Pokemon before returning them to their Pokeballs.

K.K. was standing off to the side, she really came all this way with them just to watch a kick a$$ professor do their job but better. Well, at least with far less damage then they could really do. But she had to admit, those were some cool looking creatures. One absolutely beautiful the other more stead fast.

K.K. considered looking into a pet Pokemon for her boys, given how Leo had gushed about his sister's assistant Pokemon. Chain on the other hand was more impressed with the over-sized fluffy Pokemon the Professor had ridden.

■■■

Klaus was passing by the lab with Steven. Nearly a month had passed since they first met the professor. While she had remained a relatively quiet and polite person, only ever interfering in incidents involving Pokemon, Klaus had several burning questions for her.

Steven could tell this, he'd spent long enough by Klaus's side to just know when he needed external permission to follow his whims.

"Why don't we see about making an appointment to chat with Professor Arjun? Worst that could possibly happen is she's booked until New Years."

Klaus chuckled a tiny bit, unaware he was even showing any kind of intrigue in the building they were about to pass.

"I don't see why we couldn't check upon it in person."

Steven smirked a bit, turning back to enter the lab. Yep, he knew his red-haired friend a little too well sometimes.

Both were met with quite the sight though. Professor Arjun had a large flying scorpion Pokemon clinging to her back. Not to mention several smaller Pokemon following her every step. It was a wonder she was able to move at all without tripping.

"Yes, I understand the delay. Of course. Yes, thank you." Professor turned, sliding her phone into her shirt pocket with a sigh, "Can I help you gentlemen?"

Of course she didn't miss a beat. Though Klaus was a bit nervous to see so many Pokemon all at once.

"Good afternoon Professor." Steven broke the ice, "We were hoping to set up a short meeting to discuss a couple things."

Professor Arjun opened her mouth to reply, but was cut off by her phone. Instead having to answer.

"Hello. Professor Arjun speaking."

Were there no other staff members here? Why was she swarmed with Pokemon? Klaus had more questions and still no answers. Though she was polite about having to take a call from Professor Sonia Magnolia.

Their conversation was about the still continuing space-time rifts that popped up from time to time. They were mostly avoidable, but every so often they were random and rather distructive. Yet the Pokemon found inside were never any more dangerous than any other found naturally.

"Forgive me for that." Professor Arjun turned to Klaus and Steven again, "You were saying?"

"We would like to schedule a meeting Professor." Klaus was a little too nervous and was talking louder than he intended, "To discuss possible assistance in training our own Pokemon."

Professor Arjun's eyebrow raised up, threatening to disappear in her hair, "Training for what precisely? To battle competitively, raise as pets, or field work?"

"Field work. Similar to how you use your own Pokemon in confrontations."

"Hm..." Klaus relaxed as she did, but still waited with baited breath, "That's rather difficult training. Quite extensive. And you aren't exactly affiliated with the police or I would've seen you before now."

Both were sweating a little around the collar.

"If you have a moment right now. I could at least get a couple answers before giving my own. It sounds odd, but so will the questions I need to ask." Klaus and Steven looked at each other with suspicious looks, "Would you step into my office? Uh...my private office. I don't think discussing this in an room where anyone can burst in is a good idea."

Both nodded at the Professor and followed her into a rather small office covered in small pet beds with a comfortable looking tiny sofa and desk. The Pokemon dispersed to various beds and playing with one another, except the Gligar across her back, which stayed attached to her as she sat on a stool, offering the more comfortable seating to her guests. Klaus eased onto the couch while Steven sat in the chair.

"So, you mentioned field work. That wouldn't happen to be like....fang hunting field work, would it?"

Klaus sat forward, his surprise mirrored by Steven, "Absolutely what we meant. Do you have experience with fang hunters?"

"Very little. One man called 'Lucky' I think. Poor man was being followed by a wild Absol." Professor Arjun leaned back a little, "I figured out fairly quickly why but he was very talkative about....blood breeds?"

Steven groaned. Of course Lucky would be lowkey trying to recruit a powerful Pokemon trainer, "Yes, its the term we use for vampires. Its a more accurate term."

"Ah....then I wouldn't recommend you train Pokemon."

Klaus furrowed his brow, "How come Professor?"

"I'm sure there's no lack of skill or dedication in either of you nor your team. But the training itself is extensive and time consuming." Professor Arjun looked apologetic, "And from what little information I do have. You don't have a lot of time to spare between your jobs to fully train a Pokemon, let alone a team."

Klaus and Steven blinked slowly at the concern. The logical concern.

"Buuuuut, if you're dead set on doing so. I will do what I can to help you. I just can't recommend it with a clear conscious."

"We deeply appreciate the concern Professor." Klaus bowed his head slightly, "Though I assure you we can take our time training Pokemon properly. Though it's likely going to take longer than you're thinking since our job will take obvious priority over training."
