"Hey..."

"Can you hear me...?"

My eyes flicker open, staring into a world of swirling colours. Somewhere behind me, there's a crashing sound, almost a roar. I blink- I can make out blues and whites and greens. I blink- I can see the sky, topped with clouds, obscured by some large object. I blink- and a person blinks back at me.
"You seemed pretty out of it." The figure rocks back on its heels, still staring intently.
I drag myself up, sand shifting underneath me. The crashing sound makes sense now- an infinite blue ocean stretches behind me.
"So am- I mean, everyone else is. After being put in this weird situation." Their voice is so calm, so collected. I squint against the sunlight, trying to discern any facial features.
Their skin is skeleton-pale, with teal eyes that have a milky, rheumy quality. Silky White hair puffs up from their head in a wild cloud.
"I'm Nagito Komeada. Ultimate Lucky student. It's a disappointing talent, I know."
Nagito Komeada... nope, never heard of that name before.
"Ultimate... lucky student?" I stammer.
"Yes. I was selected to come to Hope's Peak through a nation wide raffle. What's your ultimate talent?" He asks enthusiastically.
Ultimate... talent?
"Oh! Hello! Your awake!"
A pale girl rushes towards us, her glossy blonde hair bouncing as she runs. She drags another girl behind her who's clutching a games console like a life raft.
"It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Sonia Nevermind and this is my dear friend Chiaki Nanami!" She announces. Chiaki smiles at us sleepily.
"What's your name?"
My name... my name... crap! I can't even remember my own name?
I laugh awkwardly as my brain whirs into overdrive.
Uh... ok.... I could be Nagito- no, that's his name... uh... H... Hajime? Hajime... H... Hinata. That sounds like a real name, right?
"My name is Hajime Hinata. Sorry, I think I have like a concussion or something." I respond after a good minute.
"Oh, don't worry! We're fortunate enough to have a nurse with us! She's up at the restaurant. We're all meeting there." Sonia beams at me, radiating joy like a streak of sunlight.
We? How many are there?
Sonia, Nagito, Chiaki and I begin to hurry up the hill. My head pounds, eyes burning in the boiling sun.
The beach is surrounded by rolling hills, leading up to a crop of buildings. Sonia leads us into the nearest one.
"Hello everyone!" She exclaims.
Twelve pairs of eyes dart in our direction. The restaurant is full of people, a medley of hair colours and clothes, but all share the same expression.
Anger.
"Who's that?" A boy wearing a sharp- green jumpsuit yells. His teeth glint- they've been sharpened to shark's.
"Yeah! We've been waiting here for hours." Barks a short boy in a black suit. Behind him, a girl with titanium- grey plaits glares daggers at me.
"This is Hajime Hinata!" Sonia's sweet voice seems to calm the crowd. "Ok, now we're all gathered around here we can start the meeting. Where is that rabbit?"
