---MONOKUMA THEATER!---

Let's talk a bit about where I was at before I became a bear. At first, I was at a total loss. I just had no idea what I should become! A lady in our tech support department suggested I try being a shrimp. She was like, "Oh, the company's been trying to push for this forever! It's a really incredible offer!" But as she laid out all the details, it turned out it wasn't a tiger prawn like I'd hoped, but a little popcorn shrimp! That's totally tiny! I would've been the world's smallest mascot! I like EATING shrimp, I didn't wanna be one myself! Plus someone might come along and step on me... So then the lady totally started laughing at me! She was like, "You think we can do a tiger prawn on *our* budget?" So ultimately, I decided to become a bear instead. And that's the secret origin story of Monokuma...

The next day in the dining hall, most of us were gathered to eat breakfast. I was surprised to see Toko there without Togami, and so was Makoto.

"What are you s-staring at...?", Toko asked.

"Oh, Toko...?", Makoto muttered.

"What, you think y-your eyes will rot just by l-looking at me? Fine, then DON'T l-look at me!"

"I think he's just surprised to see you at the breakfast meeting, is all...", Hiro clarified.

"Indeed. It's been quite a while since you joined us.", Sakura mused.

"Yeah, what made you change your mind?", Hina asked.

"Byakuya said he...l-likes girls to have some meat o-on her bones, so... I'm g-gonna start eating! I'm gonna force it d-down into my stomach! I'm gonna eat till I d-drop!"

"I never expected that coming from him...", I muttered.

"Well, other than that...it looks like Kyoko isn't here.", Makoto noted.

"Oh, she said she'd come by later.", Hiro stated.

"Later...?"

"Yeah. After you leave."

She's not even trying to hide it anymore...

"I know I said she wanted you to show some backbone, but you didn't need to show her THAT much! You're dirty, Makoto! Dirty! President Dirty of Dirtlandia!", Hina huffed.

"You don't understand...!"

"You're the type who takes the stairs of love three steps at a time, aren't you!?"

"I don't think Makoto is like that...", I deadpanned.

"I'm telling you, it's not like that!"

"J-Just shut up already, Hina...! You've been running your f-filthy mouth like that all m-morning...", Toko spat out all of a sudden.

"Filthy? ME!?", Hina sputtered.

"Don't m-make me repeat m-myself..."

"I'm not filthy!"

"It's n-no use denying it. We can all s-see how disgusting you are..."

"Sh-Shut up...!"

"You and that lusty body of yours... Night after n-night, you go out for your illicit c-club meetings..."

"H-Hey, knock it off. I can't deal with dirty stuff like that..."

"Your m-midnight sextracurricular activities only put us in e-even more danger...!"

"S-Stop it..."

"You'd like me to s-stop, wouldn't you? Your sweaty h-hands gripping the big, fat chalk t-tight... Going for all that e-extra credit... Your screams are like the s-screech of a violated blackboard! And...! And! Ah! It's a-amazing! Indecent ideas are c-coming to me one after another!" (A/N: Toko, your perverted gay is showing.)

I got so tired of hearing Toko ramble that I grabbed my knife and threw it at the table Toko was sitting in. "I *THINK* Hina told you to fucking shut up. Don't make me do it for you..."

"Hyeeeh! S-Sorry Mistress!! sorry sorry!"

"Let's leave Toko alone. She's gone a little...funny from all her pent-up frustration. Anyway, you and Kyoko need to make up already, ya know?", Hiro turned to Makoto when they said that. Makoto went quiet, slowly making his was to Sakura.

"U-Um...Sakura?"

"What is it?"

"Can you make some time later? I was hoping I could talk to you."

"Ah! Now that Kyoko's dumped him, Makoto's trying to win Sakura's heart!", Hina whispered.

"Again, I don't think that's it.", I mumbled.

He looks too serious right now to be doing that...

"Are you in h-heat, Makoto? Don't care who they a-are as long as they've g-got the right equipment?", Toko snickered.

"What did I just say two minutes ago!?", I yelled.

"EEP!!", Toko covered her mouth to stay quiet.

"Watch out, Sakura! Makoto's transformed into a wild beast! Prime Minister Wild Beast of Beastopia!", Hina warned.

"Hina, please, don't encourage such behaviour.", I sighed.

"Why is this happening to me...?", Makoto muttered in embarrassment.

"Can our talk wait till tomorrow? I'd like to get some rest today... For some reason, I've been feeling worn down these last few days.", Sakura groaned.

"Huh? Are you sick? Did you get hurt?", Hina asked.

"No, nothing serious. I've just had some minor aches and pains..."

"But it must be pretty bad if you have to go rest. Are you sure you're okay?"

"I'm sure a protein shake and some sleep will get me back on my feet."

"That's true, protein is good for all kinds of stuff!"

"You guys, like, worship protein. It's like your god or something...", Hiro mumbled while scratching his head.

"Makoto! I dunno what it is you wanna talk to Sakura about, but save it till tomorrow! She's in pain!", Hina huffed.

"Y-Yeah, I got it...", Makoto nodded.

"Sorry...", Sakura apologized quietly.

"No need for that, Sakura. Let's just eat.", I urged everyone to sit. We all ate over idle chatter, then we all split up. I made my way to Kyoko's room, knocking on her door frantically. Said girl opened the door and greeted me.

"Do you need something?"

"Y-Yeah, come to my room. It's important.", I said simply. I couldn't have Monokuma knowing what we were talking about, so I kept it vague. Kyoko, however, understood immediately and followed me to my room. I closed the door and quickly took G's letter to Kyoko, showing her the outside. She picked it up gently and seemed to weigh it in her hand.

"It feels heavier than last time."

"You can tell?"

"Yes, and there seems to be...", Kyoko pressed a certain spot in the envelope. "... Yeah, it feels like tiny disks in there... Will you open it?"

"Sure...", I took the envelope and gently opened it. Inside, the disks I pulled out were smaller than a coin, with a small green light embedded into it. There were only two of them in there, which clued me that it may have been for both Kyoko and myself. I pulled out the letter, which was again typed instead of handwritten, and began to read it aloud.

Dear Kuno Sawa, Kyoko Kirigiri,

I hope you two are faring well. Things are going as planned on my end, so no need to worry about me. I have contacted you to warn you about Monokuma's future endeavors.

Monokuma is planning on calling you all soon for another motive to be presented, maybe around Nighttime. I want to tell you the motive BEFORE that bear announces it, just to keep you all prepared. As much as I hate to say it, it is necessary.

Sakura Ogami is the Mastermind's Spy.

I gasped, looking up at Kyoko in confusion.

"S-Sakura...!?"

"This is quite the revelation..."

"B-But why her...!?"

"Calm down, Kuno. Keep reading...", I let out a shaky breathe and continued.

Sakura Ogami was tasked to kill one of you IF nothing "exciting" happened, according to the bear. Move things along if there was a stalemate. However, Ever since Sayaka's predicament, Sakura was not needed for anything of the sort. Monokuma plans to rat her out to the students soon. It's to stir conflict between you all. Monokuma knows how to take advantage of your fear of a spy. Don't fall for it.

Now, I want you two to know one thing; Sakura is not doing this because she WANTS to, she is being FORCED. Don't hold it against her. Something extremely important to her is being threatened and she can't do anything to protect it other than serve Monokuma. Also, no, she doesn't know who the Mastermind is, Monokuma is the only one talking to her directly.

I sighed and looked to Kyoko for any kind of opinion.

"Sakura is being held hostage, just like G in the very beginning... The difference between them, however, is that G is practically invisible to everyone except us. And, unlike Sakura, G's goals can't be stopped by blackmail. They want to protect you, and they can do that even with Monokuma against them, it seems."

"How do you know that they're keeping up though?"

"They did mention that "things were going as planned on their end", so I assume they have everything under control."

"But... What I want to know is... Why hasn't Monokuma tried to come after me?"

"I think something is holding him back, but I'm not sure what. Adding that G is apparently able to protect you, Monokuma might be having trouble reaching you."

"I-I see... it's confusing, but I can't do anything about it now... I'll read the rest."

Another thing, and this is specifically geared to Kyoko Kirigiri. Makoto Naegi actually has his suspicions about Sakura, as he saw the martial artist and Monokuma fighting in the gym. That's what he is keeping from you. Understand that the only reason he hid this from you all, even when you all trust him, is that he didn't want to throw suspicion out of nowhere and it would have created distrust between you all. I implore you not to take it personally, he just wants the best for you all. Don't hate him

"Kyoko, is this why you've been so passive aggressive towards Makoto?", Kyoko sighed at my question and began to explain everything from the beginning. The secret room in the boys bathroom, Kyoko entrusting Makoto with new info, and Makoto seemingly hiding something from her. "I was... irrational. I should have trusted him..."

"Hey, at least now you know and you guys can talk it out..?"

"I suppose so. G seems to know everything going on, even topics not including yourself..."

"It's a little scary... How are they so perceptive?"

"Who knows... keep reading."

Last thing before I finish this, you have probably seen the pair of disks I left you two. These are my very own tracking devices I made myself. It took a while to make, but they work pretty well. Of course, I can't force you to wear them, but I suggest you do keep them on your person. It's so that I can tell where you two are, just incase you are in danger and need me to step in as quickly as possible. Don't leave them out in the open on your clothing, a pocket will do just fine.

Again, please do not try to find me, it will make you look suspicious to both the mastermind and the others. Besides, I would like to remain hidden unless absolutely necessary.

Now, my final request; Burn this letter. Leave no traces behind. Not the letter, not the envelope, not even the wax seal.

May She bring you joy someday-- G

I quickly threw the note in my forge to burn quickly, along with the seal and envelope. Kyoko and I agreed to keep the trackers on us and stay quiet about Sakura until further notice.

END OF CHAPTER 28!
