《There Is A Monster Among Us》Chapter 23: Orange is Alive?
Advertisement
There is just no way.
Orange, the maid, is still alive? I know I saw her fall from the ship, though.
Am I getting short-term memory loss or hallucinations?
Looking at Yellow, White, and Captain Greene gives me relief as their expressions are as shocked as mine. So, I am still sane, at least.
Pink, however, keeps herself calm and collected. Red, on the other hand, has no particular reaction. Well, that's a given since Red is ignorant of what happened to Orange earlier.
Either way, Orange walks towards us and smiles. "Good evening, everyone," she says with a wave.
"What are you doing?"
To our surprise, it is Red who asks the orange-haired maid. The rest of us do not know what to make of this.
"What do you mean?" Suddenly, Orange's smile turns sardonic. I only realize that she is holding a vial in her hand when she drinks its contents in front of us.
Another surprise comes when she proceeds to close the distance with Red, and without missing a beat, kisses him.
Although, based on the strange green liquid on Red's lips and chin when he pulls back, it seems that Orange's true purpose is to make Red drink the contents of the vial.
"What the hell are you doing, Faine?!" Red shouts as he wipes his lips and tries to spit out the liquid.
Oh. So, Orange's name is Faine?
Anyway, since Red continues to spit out what he can, I am starting to think that he knows what the liquid is. Orange's next words prove it.
"It's futile. You know how little you need for the truth serum to work, Viscount," Orange declares.
Truth serum? What?
Red can only glare at Orange as she immediately questions the former.
"Tell them about our relationship."
"What?" That voice is from Yellow.

Cornucopia of Hope
The graduating class of Hope's Peak Academy has been kidnapped sometime after their graduation ceremony. They wake up in a beautiful, plush mansion with no idea where they could be other than the name Our Mansion of Plenty. The physical barriers of steel plates and locked doors might not be enough to cage them, if it weren't for the malicious mechanical fairy calling itself The Fey and ruling their new lives with an iron--albeit tiny--fist. While being kidnapped is bad enough, the fact that this fairy brat is telling them to kill each other is definitely worse. Apparently, murdering one of your fellow victims is the only way to get out of this luxurious mansion. But nobody would do that...right? Cornucopia of Hope is a non-canon killing game completely alienated from the the canon universe of the Danganronpa games. The things borrowed from the games are as followed: Hope's Peak Academy, and the structure of 16ish hyper-skilled teenagers trapped in an enclosed space and being subjected to a motive, a murder, an investigation, a trial, and an execution of the presumed killer. There are no spoilers, tie ins, or previous knowledge required of the series to read this story!
