Monokuma paced around the sands on Jabberwock's beach. He was very angry that another murder had not started yet. He flopped on the floor, growling loudly in frustration. "UGH! This School Killing Game is boring! So booooring! I thought they would bite again, and I'm already out of ideas!" The bear continued to stare at the sky until he got an epiphany. "Oooh! But it won't be that way for long! Just you all wait...I'll figure SOMETHING out..." He cackled into the night now that he conjured up a 'killer' idea.
 
   Meanwhile, one Chiaki Nanami was just exiting her cottage along with her close friend, Hajime Hinata. The two had been playing lots of Mario Kart Double Dash and various other multiplayer discs for a couple hours. Now that the nighttime announcement chimed on the monitors, it was time for them to part ways until sunrise. "Thanks for coming over and playing games with me, Hajime! We had such a great time..." Chiaki smiled, gripping the strap of her backpack. "Could we do this again tomorrow?" She looked at her friend for a reply, with Hajime smiling back. "Yeah, I'll look forward to it! Well, see you soon, okay?" The pair waved goodbye and went their separate ways to their cottages.
 
   Now inside of his own abode, Hajime shut the door closed and immediately collapsed onto his own bed in exhaustion. "Fuck...Nighttime already? I wish I could've spend more time with her..." He sighed and yawned, his body already starting to becoming sleepy. Slowly, he pulled the covers over himself and tossed over on his side. "I should probably got some shut-eye for now. I promised I would play more games with Chiaki tomorrow...Z...Zzzz..." Hajime lazily muttered as he finally drifted off into slumber.
 
   After a long while, He slowly opened his eyes and immediately froze at the sight before him. It was a woman who looked no older than he was, dressed in a pitch black blazer and crimson red skirt. He had wavy, long strawberry blonde hair that rose past her shoulders and decorated with bear hairpins on each pigtail. Her nails were long and could be mistaken for claws dipped in blood if the light were dim enough. Her mouth started to crinkle at the corners, stretching into an unnerving grin. "Greetings, Hajime..."
 
   Hajime's first instinct was to glare and yell at the figure, "WHAT THE HELL?!? WHO ARE YOU, AND WHERE HAVE YOU TAKEN ME?!?" This only caused her to start laughing hysterically at him. "How rude! You are in no position to give orders, you know. I could give you a long talk about what I'm going to do and all, but I'd rather just...Make. You. Watch." The dark fog cleared slightly as Hajime could now see a little more clearly: Chiaki was at an arcade cabinet, trying to beat a high score. He tried to call out to her. "CHIAKI, GET OUT OF HERE! IT'S TOO DANGEROUS! YOU'LL GET-" It was useless, her mind remained focused on the session. The woman was suddenly behind her and pulled out a needle thin blade, ready to slowly harm the distracted gamer.
 
 
  Hajime immediately rushed towards the two women and pushed the figure off of Chiaki and held the gamer girl close to his body. The woman, now laying on the floor cackled even louder than before. "Oh, you not not to rush into things! You'll end up regretting such a decision, after all..." The ground then started to crumble and fall apart, causing both the cabinet and the pair's tormentor to fall beneath the floor. "We're safe, aren't we?" Chiaki whispered to Hajime in his arms. But the floor wouldn't stop cracking and eventually, it all collapsed. The two embracing students suddenly plunged into the darkness underneath, never seeing the light ever again...
 
   Hajime immediately jolted up, now wide awake. He sighed in relief at the fact that it had only been a mere dream and not reality. He rubbed his eyes and got a good view of his surroundings. The decor looked familar, yet was very different. The sheets were bubblegum pink as opposed to white and apricot. There was a televison with several unplugged consoles underneath, their cords all tangled in a disorganized mess. To his right laid a bright pink chair and a white wardrobe. "Is this...Chiaki's room?" Hajime yawned and got up, looking down at his...endowed chest. "HUH, WHAT IN THE HELL?!?" He pinched his- well, Chiaki's shoulder to see if he was dreaming. All he earned was a sharp pain from said action. "Owww...Okay, I guess I'm not still asleep. Maybe I should get a mirror."
 
   He walked into the bathroom and got a good view in the mirror. He saw only his familiar friend, now with a serious case of bedhead and dressed in only pink lingerie and a white unbuttoned shirt. He also felt a lot shorter as well, although this was because Chiaki was only five inches smaller than him. "Wait, Chiaki. That's right! If I look like this, then she must...It's all coming together now! I'm in her body!" He gasped in shock at the news. Quickly he threw on the clothes she typically wears and bolted out of her cottage and began to search for her.
 
   As soon as he opened her door, he saw the door of his own cottage slowly open. He saw what used to be himself, now yawning and looking around. Two and two clicked together in his mind, and Hajime rushed over and held Chiaki, now in his body, tight. "I was so worried! I just woke up and everything-" He was interrupted. "Yes, we switched, I think. If you're in my body, then it's only natural that I am in yours as well." She said, looking down at him from a new height. "But I do wonder, how did we end up...like this?" She asked, resting a finger on her chin. Hajime shrugged, "I wish I also knew, but for now we should probably go find the others quickly!" Chiaki nodded, and the two made their way to the restaurant.
    But to their collective shock, everyone seemed...normal. They talked exactly how they regularly would: Nagito was still rambling about hope again, and Souda was obsessing over his "Miss Sonia" who had been ignoring him completely. "Hajime, are we the only ones like this?" She turned to the now reserve course student turned gamer girl. "That has to be it, but if that's true, then why specifically us?" He asked. "For now, I guess we should try to eat and not cause too much of a scene." The two then sat at one of the tables next to Nagito, who was by himself. "Ah, Hajime and Chiaki! I'm honestly shocked you both decided to share a table with me of all students! I won't be too much of a bother, I promise!" The white haired twink said, waving to them as they took their seats. "Yeah, whatever Nagito. Just don't be a hassle again, okay?" Hajime said, scraping at his food. "Hey, Hajime...Is Chiaki in a bad mood?" He asked. Chiaki as Hajime, tried to reply to him. "Uhm...I'm not quite sure, but I think it would be best if you tried to stay silent." She said, hoping that Nagito would listen and just eat his food. The three then remained in silence as the ate until an announcement from Monokuma played on the monitor:
    "Upuphu! I have come to make a bearrrry special announcement! Hurry over to Jabberwock Park, or else!" Then the monitor shut off. Nagito looked at the pair and got up from his seat. "Well, what are we waiting for? We should get going!" He waved then rushed along with the other students out of the hotel's restaurant. Chiaki looked at Hajime again. "Could this be related to our current...situation?" She asked him, standing up to hold out her now wider, masculine hand. The reserve course student held her hand and started to walk along, the pair now leaving and moving to Jabberwock Park like instructed by Monokuma. Only then could they find the answer they seek...
