"Hitting someone with a bat is fun to you all? You all are crazy!" The person yelled, Kokichi tried moving his head to see behind Rantaro.
"Crazy?! So be it! He was being a brat and decided to embarrass us in front of everyone yesterday! So, we're teaching the kid a lesson!" Kaito said, pointing to Kokichi.
"Heyy, calm down." Another person said.
"Calm down? These jerks are trying to hit Kokichi with a bat!" The first person exclaimed.
"Isn't that the Danganronpa freak?!" Tsumugi responded loudly.
Miu's eyes widened at the scene in front of her, "What's going on?!"
"Oh look, the dumb pig is awake." Kaito teased.
Miu's face scrunched up, "P-pig..?" Her fists scrunched up as she forced herself not to cry.
"Aww, is the little girl gonna cry?" Rantaro mocked, touching her breasts with the bat. Miu flinched, covering herself to avoid any more contact.
"Hey, you degenerate males! Get away from her!" A girl yelled.
"Oh, shut up, Tenko!" Tsumugi yelled.
"Don't tell me to shut up, you jerk!" Tenko stormed over to Tsumugi and punched her in the face, knocking her down.
"What's your deal?!" The bluenette yelled.
"She's simply teaching you a lesson," One of the males defending Kokichi and Miu said."And I'm gonna teach Rantaro a lesson." He ran towards Rantaro and grabbed the bat from his hands; he wrapped it around Rantaro's neck.
The first male appeared to be Korekiyo or mask face according to Kaito; and 'Danganronpa Freak' was Shuichi. Shuichi ran past Kaito and to the duo, "Are you two okay?"
"Y-Yeah.." Kokichi said, rubbing Miu's back to comfort her. Miu sobbed into Kokichi's shoulders, still covering her chest, "Shh... It's okay, Miu-san." Kokichi whispered.
Kaito ran towards Korekiyo and Rantaro fighting, trying to pry off Korekiyo of Rantaro. Meanwhile, Tsumugi and Tenko were fighting while Tenko shouted insults and profanities at Tsumugi.
"C'mon let's get you both outta here," Shuichi said. "Guys, retreat!" Tenko and Korekiyo looked at Shuichi as they pried themselves off of the other party.

"Are you all okay?" Miu asked, touching Tenko's injuries.
"Y-yeah, we are. Thanks for asking. More importantly," Korekiyo said. "Are you okay? They didn't hurt you guys too much, now did they?"
Kokichi shook his head, "Nu-uh. You c-came just i-in time. Thank y-you s-so very m-much."
"No problem," Shuichi tended to Korekiyo's wounds.
"That's just plain cruel of them. Trying to hit you with a bat because you stated the truth earlier? What jerks." Tenko said, blushing when Miu touched her hands.
Kokichi fumbled with his shirt, "W-What m-makes you th-think they would've d-decided to hit m-me? J-just f-for fun or some-something..?"
"I'm not too sure, Kokichi-san... I have a feeling that it's because they have nothing to do with their lives, so they want to take it out on others." Korekiyo mumbled.
"But, Kokichi," Shuichi looked at him. "If they try hurting you again, just get us, alright? We'll fend them off."
"O-okay.."
Kokichi's eyes widened, "W-Wait, Miu! Y-Your no-notebook. I-It's at the t-tree."
She gasped, "Crap! I forgot all about it! I'll go get it."
"N-No no. I'll g-get it. I-I in-insist." Before anyone could protest, Kokichi was running out the door and towards the garden.
Kokichi ran and ran until he got to the tree. Kokichi sighed in relief when he sat it laying in a spot, slightly hiding behind the tree. Kokichi crouched down to pick it up--
"H-huh?!" Kokichi was again pinned to the tree. He didn't dare to look at who it was doing this; he silently stared at Miu's notebook.
"Hey, whatcha' doing?"
Kokichi recognized that voice anywhere, he silently gasped, frightened.
"Hey. Look at me when I'm talking to you." The person had a gentle yet forceful grip on Kokichi as he turned his head to look at them. Kokichi glued his eyes shut, scared of what would happen next.
"Gh-!"
