Chapter Text
???: “Ugh…”
I opened my eyes slowly
(!!!)
???: “what the?!”
???: "Where am I?”
Once my eyes adjusted to the dark room, I looked around. Took me a few second to realize that I was in a storage room a full of cleaning supplies
???: why am I here anyway?
I pulled myself off the ground, I put my hand on the back of my neck rubbing it to ease my sore neck, god how long I lay in here?
As I soon try to get out of the small room
*click*
It unlocks
When I get out of this room, the room was pretty dark
???:( “This is weird…how did I got here?”)
I tried to recall the thing he remembered.
Too bad I couldn’t remember it yet…
Non-the less…this room is too dark here I need to leave now or maybe there is a light in this room…
I took a deep breath and starting to took steps
...
???: “Hello? Is somebody ther- oof!”
Suddenly I bump on something or someone in front of me and I fall over, hitting hard on the floor. I groaned and it hurt my head, I rubbed the back of my head.
???: “Blazagon?”
I was shocked when the familiar voice says my name I sat up and look at the person in front of me
It was my best friend and brother figure, Pantaro
Blazagon: “P-Pantaro?”
Pantaro: “Are you ok Blazagon?”
Blazagon: “I-I’m fine, Pantaro.”
He leads his hand to help me up
Pantaro: “Blazagon do you have any idea where we are? I don't even remember how we got here…”
Blazagon: “Me either Pantaro… I have no idea how we got here either…”
Pantaro: “I see…but. What about the rest of us? I’m sure some of us are still in Goo-jo.”
Blazagon: “!?”
Suddenly, it hit my head like a brick
Blazagon:( “that’s right… We were all at the Goo jo… and others were there too… Suddenly we saw some kind of smoke bomb and… We were all...”)
I can’t remember anything further. It felt fuzzy to my memory…the last time I saw them they were all laying down and passing out…
Pantaro: “Hey.”
Pantaro put a hand on my shoulder
Pantaro: “This must be the work of the Wilder, they might be planning something, Blazagon, we should explore this place and find them”
...
Blazagon: “Your right, we must find them especially Rock-Jaw”
I took one more deep breath
Blazagon: “Alright let’s go, but first um..we need to find the light switch”
Pantaro: “You don’t have to, just grab my and hand and follow me”
I grab pantaro’s hand as we start to find a way to get out of the dark room
(…)
We manage got out that room
Outside of the room it was a large hallway, with other doors and corridors leading to other unknown areas. This place looks like a castle but with more of a futuristic look; dark purple grey wall with bright green diamonds stones for light. The air felt heavy, and the sheer silence was unnerving, both of us kept going until…
A green crocodile with black short and gloves standing behind
That Goo…was RockJaw
Pantaro: “… Ahem,”
Pantaro clear throat a bit which make him heard it and turn around
Rock-Jaw: “Hm? Oh what do we have here? >:] Never expect to see two Goo-losers here at this castle, huh?”
Pantaro: “Did you plan this!?”
Rockjaw: “What plan? I didn’t plan anything...Or maybe I am...” Rock jaw grin
Rockjaw: “But it doesn’t matter because right now I think it's time to put up a fight.”
Pantaro huff, groan in frustration
Pantaro: “Fine then, let's see what you got…”
When Rockjaw was about to take his first attack but suddenly…
RockJaw: “Fang Fur-!”
Suddenly, a sharp bullet hit one of Rockjaw’s legs; it was as fast as a bullet train. Rockjaw knees down and scream in pain
RockJaw: “AGGGHHAA!!! W-what is it? Where did that come from?!”
Me and Pantaro were studded by this terrified of what we had witness
Pantaro: “Oh Great Goo Nebula!”
Balzagon: “Pantaro…I think we should help him, we can’t leave him like this”
Pantaro: “… *sigh* Blazagon, you go check on RockJaw while I go back to back to that room to see if there is any first-aid kit, I will be back.”
Blazagon: “Ok but be careful…”
Pantaro then walked away while I went to RockJaw to check the wounds. The shot was really bad and it bleeding badly, I gently hold the wound on his leg
Rockjaw: “Ow-ow! Stop it you goofwad!”
Rockjaw hold his wounded leg tightly still feeling the pain from the bullets
Blazagon: “Hey now, I'm trying to help you.”
I take off my old bandages that tie around my palm and use tie not too tightly but firm around his leg and arm to at least help a bit from bleeding to much
Blazagon: “There that should help a little”
RockJaw: “…”
RockJaw: “You two don’t have help me…I-I can handle it myself”
Blazagon: “But your bleeding really badly we can’t just leave you all gooey-bloody like that”
RockJaw silent for a bit before he speak again
RockJaw: “Whatever Bozo-gon…” he mumble
Pantaro is now back with the first-aid kit
Balzagon: “Pantaro you back! I was a bit worried for second”
Pantaro: “It fine but right now we should heal his wounds”
We then help healing RockJaw’s wounds properly this time and carefully help him stand up a bit while lift his arm around one of our shoulder
As we try to find other and maybe a safe place to stay for now there was a dining hall with a long table in the middle, and smaller round tables scattered around, seem to be the cafeteria
we saw a blue shark sitting at one of the tables
???: “… huh?”
“!!!”
He notices us and he leave the seat and get close to us
???: “Blazagon, Pantaro I'm happy to see you guys!- FOOGOO! what the goo happend?!”
Rock Jaw: “Don’t. It is none of your concern for your stupid little brain to know !”
Thrash: “Sheesh how rude…” he roll his eyes not taking rock jaw’s insult personally
Blazagon: “Um, long story…but Thrash what are you doing here
Thrash back up and put his arm behind his head
Thrash: “Oh that? Mantor tells us to find others and head to the Gym, but… I got hungry so I went to the cafeteria to see if there any foods around here”
Thrash: “Anyway, since I found you guys and “him”....ahem! Follow me!”
We leave the cafeteria room and follow Thrash to take us to the gym he opened the doors
As we enter the gym
[Gym]
At the large gym there’s a bunch of people in here and all familiar faces, well most of them…
a bell ring out
*Ding dong, bing bong*
Everyone silenced They all looked up to a monitor
???: “Aaaahem!”
???: “Attention to all future Goo Warriors! Please make your way to the gymnasium as early as possible. I’ll be waiting…hehe…”
Just as it appeared, the silhouette had gone after that, leaving everyone in a state of confusion.
Thrash: “who in the fishsticks was that?”
I see a few people come to the gym. I notice the two unknowns have hand weapons stuck together too…
???: “Hey, who are you guys?”
Thrash: “hey hey we come in peace dudes, will out.”
??? 2: “you guys look a little off, where’s your weapon?”
Pantato: “uh, we don’t have weapons for hands like you guys.. Who are you?
Gigatusk: “I suppose we should introduce ourselves around here. My name is Gigatusk, the ultimate blacksmith!”
Reptaur: “and you can call me Reptaur, I’m the ultimate saw operator”
Blazagon: “a blacksmith and saw operator? Well, I’m Blazagon. uh, Ultimate leader?”
Pantaro: “You okay Blazagon, you don’t seem comfortable with your talent.”
Blazagon: “It’s nothing brother, I-I’m alright..”
Thrash: “well then hehe you two weapon armed allies can call me Thrash! I’m the ultimate Racing Driver!”
Pantaro: “I’m surprised you didn’t get the ultimate prankster.”
Thrash: “kinda wish I did not gonna lie.. hehe.”
Gigatusk: “So what's your name kitty?”
Pantaro: “ok first, dont call me kitty, second, my name is Pantaro, I’m the ultimate ninja!”
Rock-Jaw: “and you can call me, ROCK-JAW! The most incredible croc ever!~ I am the ultimate gang leader!”
Ughh…his ego is still there even if his leg got shotted
Blazagon: “so, have you two seen Mantor anyway, he should look like a praying mantis, blue uniform.”
Gigatusk: “I don’t think I have, Reptaur?”
Reptaur: “I think he might be just over there I think, just by those seats.”
me, thrash and pantaro decide to check over, rock jaw just stares at reptaur
Reptaur: “can I help you?”
Rock Jaw: “Im watching you Reptaur..”
I walked over to what looked like Mantor but also a monkey in a yellow jumpsuit
Mantor: “ah, Blazagon, Thrash and Pantaro, good you made it safely.”
Thrash: “hey dude! Hey, who’s your new friend here?”
Simian: “whoaa!~ I heard so much about you guys! It’s such an honour to meet you three! You can call me Simian! I’m the ultimate athlete!”
Blazagon: “an athlete huh?”
Simian: “That's right! I got some pretty sick moves!”
Pantaro: “So if you’re here, Mantor, what’s your talent?
Mantor: “well my friends, I, Mantor have been given the talent of the ultimate yoga instructor, Namastei”
Thrash: “I. have no idea what that means..”
Blazagon: “Well it's good that you’re here, Mantor.”
???: “HEY MASTER!!!”
Pantaro: “oh no…”
what started alright turned crazy as rock jaw is tackled by 2 familiar faces..
Rock-Jaw: “Viper!? Scorpius!? you’re here too!?”
Scorpius: “you could say that..”
Viper: Master! what happens to your leg?!
Rock jaw: S-shut up! Viper, it's nothing.
Simian: “oh great is that the wilders?”
Pantaro: “Afraid so Simian.. come on let just ignore them”
as me and the others walked over, Scorpius had his tail ready
Scorpius: “Well well well, I see you three are still stuck like goo..”
Pantaro: “not cool man, what are you doing here?”
Scorpius: “I should be asking you the same question…”
Simian: “uhh…can you at least tell us your talents?”
Scorpius: “very well curious George, I am Scorpius, the ultimate assassin!!”
me and the others step back, clearly concerned regarding that talent.
Viper: “Oh and me me! I'm Viper I’m the uh, Ultimate nuisance apparently..”
we stare blankly at viper before laughing a bit
Blazagon: “That is not a talent…sorry if I hurt your feeling,buddy”
Viper: “Oh… :(“
Rock-Jaw just rolls his eyes. As I looked up I spotted a blue bat staring down at us..
???: “I see you’ve all discovered the eyes of the sky…”
Pantaro: “what in the-”
Before Pantaro could finish his sentence the bat fell down, I tackled Pantaro out of the way as the bat revealed itself.
Thrash: “what the shrimpus!? you nearly crushed Pantaro you jerk!!?”
???: “Who are you calling a jerk, I am Battaxe, the ultimate wood cutter!”
Gigatusk rushes over to make sure we were ok
Gigatusk: “sorry about him guys, he’s a bit of a show off and cuckoo..”
Battaxe: “oh shut up!”
Blazagon: “right… is there anyone else here?”
Battaxe: “the doctor is just by that corner with wonky kong.”
Thrash: “wonky kong?”
Pantaro: “we better check, come on.”
Me, Thrash and Pantaro decide to go check with the last two people.
???: “aaah new subjects I see?”
??? 2: “Back off them you crazy scientist, even though they are part of our enemies team, I’m not letting you do whatever you are planning to do."
The tension felt uneasy…I decided to speak first
Blazagon: “Well..no, I'm Blazagon the ultimate leader, this is Thrash the ultimate Racing Driver and Pantaro, the ultimate Ninja”
Silverback: “Call me Silverback, The ultimate boxer!!” the blue gorilla’s voice sounds tough yet frim…
Thrash: “weeping wasabi! That sounds awesome! but uh, who's the red guy?”
Redback: “Allow me sharkbait, I am doctor redback, the ultimate, well doctor..”
Thrash: “Sounds more like a crazy science freak than a doctor to me…” he whispered to me, feeling uneasy.
Blazagon: “why are you like this?”
Redback: “oh you’d be surprised my fellow dragon..”
redback chuckles and goes to the middle of the gym
Thrash: “why is he going to the middle?”
Silverback: “I think the new goo keeper is coming..”
Blazagon, Thrash and Pantaro: “new goo keeper?”
But why a new goo-keeper? the one we know is still alive and well, isn't he?.. I wasn’t sure but me and the other agreed to go check.. But when we reached the centre, we were in for a bizarre surprise..
as we all looked up at the stage, a peculiar looking bear shows up
???:” WELCOME! Goo-warriors! you all sure are quite surprised and so confused why you are here…Oh! Where is my manner? Let me introduce myself!”
Monokuma: I’m Monokuma! Your new Goo-keeper!”
Simian: “shouldn’t it be MonoGooma?”
Monokuma: “I would be if I was made of goo, but I'm not.”
Rock-jaw: “So why did you capture all of us, AND WHY DID YOU SHOOT MY LEG!!”
Rock-jaw lifts his leg to show the bandage
Monokuma: “Let me get there rock for brains!!”
some of us chuckled at the name before focusing.
Monokuma: “you see you’ve all been invited to a special little game~”
Game? What on earth is he talking about?
Thrash: “oh! Is it a tournament? I love a good fight against the Wilders!”
Monokuma: “oh no no no my little friend, it’s a KILLING GAME~!”
Me and the others eyes widened with shock, a killing game!? I mean sure we fight the wilders all the time but not to the extent of killing them! Is that bear out of his mind?!
Monokuma: “But first~I don’t want any of you to cause some trouble before the killing game starts…I will have to take your powers for fairness, you don’t it happened like that silly crocodile over there”
Rock Jaw: “Hey! What do you think you are, you stupid plush bear!”
Pantaro: “rock jaw I don't think you should call him that!”
Scorpius: “for once Im with Pantaro you’re gonna get us killed!”
Monokuma: “well maybe you should’ve thought of that then you would've been shot in the leg!”
rock jaw: “Oh yea!?”
Rock Jaw then tackles Monokuma and begins strangling it, just before we knew it a beeping noise was heard!
Thrash: “FOOGOO! IT'S A BOMB!!”
Viper: “THROW IT ROCK JAW THROW IT!!”
Without a second thought, Rock jaw threw Monokuma into the ceiling!
*BOOM!!*
Reptaur: “where did he go!?”
Gigatusk: “did-did that thing explode!?”
Rock-Jaw: “good riddance he was on my nerves..”
but when rock-jaw turned around
Monokuma: “SURPRISE!”
rock jaw jumped and fell off the stage, luckily Viper pick him up
Monokuma: “see what happens when you hurt the goo-keeper!? Now if anyone does harm, said Goo-keeper, they will be PUNISHED!”
Pantaro: “Are there any other rules to your killing game?”
Monokuma: “why yes! if you check your pockets, I’ve given you all tablets which include Monokuma files about you all!”
as we all checked, we found said tablets and read over the rules..
THE KILLING GAME RULES
1.warriors may reside only within the castle. Leaving campus is an unacceptable use of time.
2."Nighttime" is from 10 pm to 7 am. Some areas are off-limits at night, so please exercise caution.
3. Sleeping anywhere other than the dormitory will be seen as sleeping in class and punished accordingly.
4.With minimal restrictions, you are free to explore the castle at your discretion.
5.Violence against Goo-keeper Monokuma is strictly prohibited, as is destruction of surveillance cameras
6.Anyone kill a fellow warrior and becomes “Blackened” will graduate unless they are discovered (it doesn’t matter who it is between the “Heroes” or “Wilders”)
7. Additional Castel regulation may be added may be necessary
The seven rules seem easy to follow.. but knowing rule 6 is most horrifying, none of us would really kill, would we?..
Monokuma: “Any more questions?”
Thrash: “uh why can’t we leave the castle? what’s wrong with Gooey-city..”
Monokuma: “Okay, time’s up here, you can go do your own thing now! so bye bye!!”
Before we could stop him, monokuma vanishes, Thrash clearly annoyed.
Thrash: “he didn’t even answer my question..”
Pantaro: “never mind thrash.. Don’t let that bear get to you..”
Gigatusk: “like are we really trapped here!?”
Mantor: “Patience pachyderm. I'm certain the bear is putting us to some sort of test.”
There are so many questions from others including me…
Redback: “hmm “it doesn’t matter whether it is a team “Heroes” or “Wilders”” huh… does that imply that our teammate might turn against each other?”
!?
Shiverback: “WHAT THE F*** Are you saying?!”
Redback: “Think about it…The rule never stated that the wilder is always playing the role of the killer or the heroes always being "innocent"...so which means we could kill whoever we want whatever killing the opposite team or our own team..”
Redback: “additionally, it would make the case quite obvious and easy to tell who is who .Does that get in your head Wonky Kong?"
Silverback got mad he was about to hit the red spider but gave up
Silverback: “UGHH!-I can’t believe you are part of our team”
Redback: “Hmp, very-well I shall go now”
The red spider left…
Silverback: “...Tsk…” he left as well
Simian: “I-I don’t like this! I don’t like this!!”
Blazagon: “Pantaro? what do we do?”
Pantaro: “we should investigate around this castle. Maybe that Monokuma has some clues?”
Soon we all went into different areas, trying to at least find a clue on how to escape.. not much luck as most of the rooms were locked shut tight and since we can’t use our powers. we were pretty much stuck..
Thrash: “anything guys?”
Blazagon: “sorry Thrash, no luck..”
Thrash: “aww chum… I was hoping we’d find some clues.. I'm starting to miss Tygor and the others..”
Pantaro: “Now that you mentioned it I didn't see him or the others anywhere, Wolfpain, Sahario, Brawler, not even the legends..”
Blazagon: “Do you think they’re looking for us?”
Thrash: “I hope so, especially the goo-keeper. I miss him..”
Pantaro: “you and I both thrash..”
As much as we miss our friends and the Goo-keeper…we can’t let our fear…there must be a way to escape this.
Blazagon: “Listen guys we’re in this together we’re the heroes of goo jit zu right? We can’t let this break our bond.”
me, thrash and pantaro embrace in a hug to calm each other down after what happened, we went to find our dorm rooms with a frame of us.
Thrash: "I'll admit, that bear knows how to get me on my good side..”
Pantaro: “this is definitely not like the goo-jo.”
Blazagon: “too right.”
I opened my dorm room door to check, it was all prepared nicely, bed was made and even a shower? uh, thanks I guess...the place seem a lot nicer than what I expected
Pantaro: “I guess our dorms are similar?
Blazagon: “perhaps Pantaro.. But should we go check on the others, they might still be scared.
Thrash: “yeah you’re right, I wanna go find reptaur and gigatusk, those 2 were awesome”
Panataro: “I better keep an eye on the wilders, I wouldn't be surprised if they were behind this so-called killing game..”
Blazagon: “alright we’ll meet back in the kitchen with the others.”
Pantaro and Thrash: “deal”
as I went my separate ways with my close friends to find the others, I went down the hall to find Simian curled up..
Blazagon: “hey, simian you alright?”
Simian: “I. I can’t kill! That isn’t the way of the goo jit zu and why remove our powers..”
Blazagon: “I don't know why Simian, maybe he knew our powers would give the crimes away? but come on, you’re not gonna give into monokuma are you?”
Simian: “I. I don't want to.. but I fear someone might go after me..”
Blazagon: “nonsense, you’re still a young one and I know you have some fighting spirit in you, we can’t fall for this.. Come on, the others are in the kitchen..”
Simian: “ok. thanks Blazagon..”
me and simian stood up and made our way to the kitchen. Everyone was waiting there all sat round the table, well 2 tables with different colors and logos cuz of heroes and wilders..
Pantaro: “you found simian?”
Blazagon: “yeah.”
Mantor: “you feeling alright young one..”
Simian: “I dunno.. still a little shaken up from Monokuma..”
Rock-Jaw: “I still wish I was able to kick his butt..”
Scorpius: “and get killed? I don't think so.. I still think there is a way out and Monokuma won’t admit it.”
Blazagon: “whatever..”
as me and Simian sat down, we began discussing what we found within the castle
Reptaur: “we saw a stairs going up but it was locked by a door, we tried to find a key but no luck..”
Mantor: “it must mean there are floors we’re yet to unlock.
Scoprius: “Hmmm for us we found the entrance of the castle however it locks as well except they are heavily caged and locked up. The entrances are surrounded by guns as well so it is best to stay away.”
Viper: “I found this cookie jar!” he pulled out a jar of freshly baked cookies
everyone just turns at viper. The latter nervously eats a cookie before hiding under the table..Scoprius slam his claw on his face
Mantor: “Listen, we should at least calm down, tomorrow we shall do a proper investigation regarding this castle and if Monokuma wants to show his face we will strike, I won’t let any of you get harmed..”
Blazagon: “thanks Mantor, we’re glad to have you with us..”
Pantaro: “agreed. Your advice could come in handy.”
While we discussed I looked at Redback…I know he is part of the wilder however he seems to know about it…could he have something to do with Monokuma?, I felt hesitant to talk to him since well the ways his talk and opinion but maybe I could if I had the chance
We all made an agreement and began to head to our dorms as the nighttime announcement played. But before I went, Mantor held onto my arm for a second.
Blazagon: “Mantor?”
Mantor: “Blazagon, promise me one thing. Don’t fall into despair. okay? I don’t want you making a grave mistake..”
Blazagon: “Promise.. besides, I know better than rock for brains anyway..
Rock-Jaw: “I CAN STILL HEAR YOU BLAZAGOOBER!!” He slam his dorm door loud
Me and mantor have a chuckle before going our separate ways. As I went into my dorm I rested on my bed, thinking about today.. Could this really be one of the wilders tricks? or could Monokuma be up to no good.. as I fell asleep.. I had a strong glimpse of hope, but how long will it last? Only time will tell..
The end of the prologue.
To be continued…
