A loud roar followed by a crash is heard in the middle of the night at the nearby woods. Not long after, firelight glimmers faintly through the trees and smoke can be seen above them. It doesn't seem to be spreading and points more towards a possible campfire. Venturing closer allows you to find said campfire along with three creatures. The largest of the three happens to be a large dragon seemingly fussing at the smallest creature in the area who seems to be tending to it. The second largest is a mech of sorts, lifeless aside from the glow coming from some of it's areas. The third and last creature you can see is an armor clad, green woman walking around both dragon and mech seemingly assessing their state. Her helm besides the fire seems just as unscathed as the rest of the armor which could be surprising considering the crash's evidence points at a rather bad one.

So far it seems she, or her companions have not noticed you.

Hasn't she wished to have died many times in the past? But that's all it's been... behind her and not something she has wished for in a while. "One of those places...." Ronnae voiced low followed with a sigh.

"Is there a war of sorts? I...." Now that it points more and more towards the fact that she might be in Azeroth anymore. "I came from somewhere where different races, factions, fought each other all the time..." She hoped the bear was making it sound worse than it was.

"Really?" Monokuma asked, completely ignoring her question. "Why would you ever wanna leave there? Upupupu! Maybe you're here to start your war here too! Please don't hurt me, my stuffing is very delicate!"

"What?! N-no I would never!" she said in shock.

"Why would I want to start a war here? I... I wouldn't! And I wouldn't hurt you, I promise." Not unless you hurt her Mr. Weird Panda Bear.

Which could very well happen. Not that SHE knew that. Yet.

"I hardly know you!" Monokuma insisted, shrugging and turning his back on her. "For all I know, you like to eat cute, adorable, sexy bears like me, and I'm putting my life on the line just by talking to you!" But all the while, that grin never left the teddy bear's face.

"What?! N-no! I wouldn't! I mean, I love hunting but I wouldn't eat you." she said in shock. All the while the dragon simply shook it's head and laid facing the other way.

"Do you get threatened often?" she now asked curiously.

"Nope! I'm usually the one doing the threatening! Upupupupu!" the bear laughed in its creepy voice.

Okay, that caught her off guard and definitely put her on it as well.

"What do you mean?" She was going to take a guess and say that it was maybe as a defense mechanism. Many times small creatures that were afraid took on a threatening stance in order to ward off predators.

"Oh, you know how it goes," Monokuma explained, shrugging nonchalantly. "Spreading despair, destroying lives, forcing people to kill each other for entertainment... And looking good while doing it!" he declared.

....

Ronnae gripped the hilt of her blade as her eyes narrowed.

"I think we're done here sir."

"Puhuhu! Threatening me? That's not a pretty smart idea! Besides, what's the big deal?" he asked, turning to her, the red eye on his left side glowing.

"I mean, you went for that sword pretty fast! You've probably killed a lot of people before! Did they deserve it? Hmmm?" he asked, never losing his composure.

Her hand stayed at her sword and she looked at him, "It's not a threat. I'm not going to move towards you or attack you if that's what you're worried about." she stated plainly.

"I have, and many did.... Some, not so much... But where I come from things are..." They're not different, no... "Complicated."

"I simply rather not dwell on those things and avoid those who enjoy causing them." Even that was a bit hypocritical... She knew she enjoyed the thrill of battle. At times lusted for it. But... she didn't want to think on that right now.

"Oooh, war? Blood vengeance? Like those movies where the cop's buddy dies and he goes on a rampage to kill the crooks responsible?" Monokuma rattled off, not particularly caring whether Ronnae got any of his references or not.

"Doesn't sound that complicated to me! Senseless killing is such great despair after all! If you keep your weapons around, you must really miss it!"

"It's habit! And no... I... I don't.... I don't enjoy it..." Not the fact that innocents die in throves every day cause of the wars...

"And no, not generally in vengance... It's... the world I'm from has been at war for many years...." One war after another with barely any rest in between...
