My name is Lizzie. If your listening to this broadcast, then you have survived the Despair as well. To tell you what we're dealing with, this is the story of the first wave of Despair.

   I stared up at what seemed to be my new school. Clover High. I remembered how excited I had been to get in. After all, It was for a selective category of people, YouTubers! I took a deep breath, then stepped onto the campus, ready for anything that came my way. Or so I thought. I suddenly felt...woozy.

"What the..." I said out loud, then everything went black.

   When I woke up, I was in a classroom. That's strange... I thought, I don't remember coming in here. There was a piece of folded paper in my hand. When I unfolded it, it read,
"Go to the Gym to meet the other 'Students'".
Something was definitely up, from the weird classroom, to the... Oh gosh... There were Iron plates completely covering all the widows. And they were bolted in place! Talk about paranoia. I decided to go to the gym, and meet the people I'd be learning with.

   I pushed open the double-doors of the gym, and was momentarily blinded by how... bright it was. Compared to the dark hallways, the artificial lighting was like sunlight.

"This is way too weird..." One guy was saying"

"Why are we back in high school? I thought once we graduated we didn't have to come back!" said another.

The door shut behind me, turning all attention to me. Fifteen pairs of eyes stared at me. Well, technically that wasn't true. Fourteen pairs of eyes and one camera face stared at me. The weirdest part was, most of the people here looked like they were in their twenties. A little above high school age.

"uh, hi." I said, waving an akward hand.

Scanning the faces, I felt like I should know them. Here I was, a dorky teen with long brown hair and some freckles, among adults who'd probably been on YouTube for years.

"I'm Lizzie" I said.

That's when I got acquainted with my fellow YouTubers.

"Hi, I'm Adam". One guy said. He had kind of curly brown hair, brown eyes covered by sunglasses, and a purple amulet around his neck. He wore a lot of gray and black.

   Max had ginger hair, brown eyes, a goatee, and a Z pendant around his next. His outfit also had a lot of black.

   Jess had long black hair, dark brown hair, a light purple tank top, jean shorts, and boots.

  Nick had black hair, and had glasses on the bridge of his nose. He wore a blue work shirt, and pants.

   Tommy had roundish yellow mask covering his face, blonde hair, a big smile, a red T-shirt, and jeans.

   Red had ginger hair, like Max, brown eyes, and a red onesie that had the flash symbol on the chest, and Dino teeth on the hood.

   Barney had very short brown hair, an eye patch, plus a green and purple Dino onesie.

   Ashlie had long red hair, green-blue eyes, a navy blue sweater with white print, and gray pants.

   Dan had dark blue hair, kind of like what I wanted to dye my hair in the future. He also had goggles pushed up on his head, a black jacket, blue shirt, and what kind of looked like elbow pads and knee pads, but gold.

   Corey had a camera face, dirty blonde hair, a white hoodie with gray sleeves and a gray hood, and khaki pants.

   Shelby had long, red hair, a little lighter than Ashlie's, a white paper crown, a white hoodie, and black pants.

   Em had longish wavy blonde-brown hair, caramel brown eyes, purple t-shirt, and jeans

   Ross had brown hair, blue eyes, glasses, and a squirrel onesie with a red bow tie.

   Sasha had long purple hair, light brown eyes, a pink blouse, and jean shorts.

   After being introduced to all of them, I noticed the last person that was in the gym. She was the only one in here other than me that seemed to actually be high school age. She had dark brown hair, light blue eyes, and was wearing jean overalls over a rainbow Dino shirt that had a hood.

"Hi, I'm..." I started, when she interrupted me.

"I know. I heard." She said, "I'm Olivia"

"Nice to meet..." I started, then a voice rang through the gym.

"Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3... is this thing on?" The voice was high pitched, and really annoying, actually.

We all turned our attention to the stage, where a... Teddy bear stood. It was definitely the most screwed up teddy bear I'd ever seen. The white half of it looked like a normal teddy bear, while the black half had a cruel red eye, and a matching evil grin.

"Hello there scrubs! My name's Monokuma, and I'm the principal of this fine institution!" I heard a lot of muttering after that.

"Must be remote controlled..." I heard Dan say.

"I'm not a robot!" Monokuma yelled, "I'm flesh and bone like the rest of you idiots!"

He cleared his throat.

"Now, I'm sure you all want to know why you're here. Well, ask and you shall receive, my friends!" He said.

We aren't your friends, I thought. Monokuma continued,

"Welcome to your new home for the rest of your poor pathetic lives! We have food, and rooms. All your needs will be satisfied"

"Seriously?" Asked Nick.

"I don't want to spend the rest of my life trapped in a school with Nikon!" Shelby called, gesturing to Corey.

   "Shut up Shelby!" Corey yelled.

"Now, now, for those of you who want to leave, there is a way" Monokuma said, the tone of his voice mischievous and evil, "Good old fashioned murder! Feel free to stab, strangle, bash, disembowel, heck, feel free to hex people! I don't care! If you kill someone, and get away with it, you're free to graduate!"

"Are you s-serious?" Jess squeaked.

"As a heart attack toots!" Monokuma said.

"That's crazy, you psychotic teddy bear!" Yelled Barney(I'm writing no accent Barney, so I don't butcher his accent).

"Uh, I'm.. I am not comfortable with this..." Red said.

"Well, I don't care. Go explore." Monokuma said with a shrug.

Then, he disappeared off stage.

"This is crazy!" Ashlie said.

"We might as well go exploring" Sasha remarked.
  
   Everyone agreed, so we broke up into groups and spread out.
What we learned very soon, was that the stairs to the upper floors were barred. Every entrance and exit was blocked with heavy, intimidating metal doors. We all congregated in the cafeteria after about an hour. The crazy thing was, we had a heckuvalot of food. And not the crappy stuff you usually get in school cafeteria. Like, actually really good stuff. We sat around a rectangular steel table, and started talking.

"Anyone have any luck?" Em asked. Everyone shook their heads.

"Unfortunately, we can't even explore the upstairs for an exit  because it's blocked off." Dan said.

"Why are you all still alive?!" Monokuma cried, startling us all.

The bear had appeared out of nowhere.

"Hey, I think I speak  for all of us when I say that we don't plan on killing someone!" Olivia said.

"Yeh" Ross said.

Monokuma was still for a moment, then her started laughing.
"Upupu! Of course! I know what went wrong. Every killer has to have motive."

   And with that, we were all sitting at desks in the AV room, sliding our individual DVD's into the player. I placed the headphones over my ears, prepared for the worst.
