Dangan Ronpa: Truth among darkness
Prolouge: Putting everything in motion
I gaze at the glass window right next to me. I sigh as I get up from my desk. I wonder if the teacher is finish with my test yet. I sigh again. I shouldn't have been sick that day but I guess that's just my luck. Looking on the bright side I got more time to study. I look to the teacher's desk, I see he's not even done with the first page of many. I excuse myself from the classroom as I exit. With a sigh of relief as I close the door I check the remaining classrooms rooms that were open. As I walk through the halls I hear the murmuring of people and the sounds of desk moving. I look to see what is in and I see a teacher and some students. The Teacher sees me, smiles and said " Why hello your Makoto Naegi aren't you? Why don't you step inside I think we could use another person."
I close the door behind me and look at the scene before me. I see some students that I've seen before but nevertalk to. The only one I recognise is her,Sayaka Maizono. Sayaka Maizono was an excellent singer. I heard she was really popular that even a few record companies tried to sign her up before. Even as a middle schooler she has more than 1,000 fans. It'd be a shame if any thing bad happens to her or her reputation.
Truth bullet: Sayaka Maizono : Reputation added to ammo!
I hear the teacher's voice and that brings me back to reality. The teacher explain what was happening more like lectured, " So basically Naegi we're having a class trial. It's about a stolen vase, which is a family heirloom passed down from generation to generation. It could've only been stolen at physical education. You see the only people who weren't at P.E. were Maizono, Shinrai Dekimasen, Akiraka Giruti, and Maina Moji. Maizono was excuse from P.E. because of meetting about her career as a muscian but came before P.E. ended. Akiraka Giruti was excused from gym class because of a doctor's note. Shinrai Dekimasen came late because he overslept and didn't know P.E. was in session. Maina Moji was in the nursery because of a stomach ache. Oh! One more thing these kids haven't left so their bags are still here" Boy the teacher sure talks a lot I can see
Truth bullet: Sayaka Maizono: Alibi added to ammo!
Truth bullet: Maina Moji: Alibi added to ammo!
Truth bullet: Akiraka giruti: Alibi added to ammo!
Truth bullet: Shinrai Dekimasen : Alibi added to ammo!
Truth bullet: Student Bags added to ammo!
As the Teacher's explanation rambeld on so I looked at the other people in the room. I looked at that Akiraka guy. The guy was wearing a black leather jacket with leather pants over his uniform. His dark black hair covering one of his eyes. He seems like one of those badass manga characters who seems overly powered. He looks at me and I wince. I turn my head to the girl with blonde hair who I presumed to be Maina. Her long blonde flowing hair and her uniform covered in glitter stuckout. it seems like she has some importance. She looked at me and smiled. I looked at the other guy, who was less scarier then that Akiraka guy. He was wearing a school uniform like everyone else but it looks very unprofessional somehow. Maybe it's his unkept aburn hair and unbuttoned vest. He looks back at me with a suspcious glare. I gulped. Just what did I do to tick him off? I look at Maizono and bask at her beautiful blue hair and her uniform but what intrigue me the most was she looked like she was crying. I'm guessing she doesn't like being accused. Then again who would? I turn back to the teacher an she asks "Now that you understand it so far are you ready to debate in this case trial?" I nodded my head and she let us begin.
Trial Is Now In Session!
All Rise!
Case 0
"So let us begin with a simple of how the class trial will work," the teacher explain. " The trial will work like so, you each will all debate on the topic. Until everyone is satisfied, you will debate on who's the culprit. On a majority vote the criminal will be picked and I will give them a proper punishment, so without futher adieu you may began the debate."
"Why bother?" Ren said emotionessly. " I mean we should already know who the culprit is. Even without this guy."
"Huh? Really? Who is it?" Yui innoecently asked.
"Isn't it obvious? It's obiviously him, Makoto Naegi!" announced Shinrai.
"What?! Why me?" I asked. I couldn't quite understand why he came up with that.
"Well isn't obvious? You're from a different class than us so you could've easily stolen the vase while our class was at gym." He smugly answered with his smirk as wide as possible. Everyone else sweatdropped.
"But Shinrai," Maina started to ask,"Wouldn't Naegi had a class as well?" The realization struck Shinrai like a sword stabbing right through his chest. It hurt more as Maina continued " Also Naegi wouldn't have any reason to steal the vase 'cause he's not in the teacher's class. A likely suspect would be you since you have no witnesses."
That caused Shinrai to freak out but Akiraka butted in " I saw him. I was allowed to explore the school and I peered through one of the windows and saw him."
Truth bullet: Shinrai Dekimasen : Alibi edited!
"Then who else could it be." Maina asked.
"Isn't it obvious? It's obiviously her! Sayaka Maizono!" exclaimed Akiraka.
"Huh!?" Maizono asked in suprise bringing her from her crying.
"Is it realy her?" Maina wondered in curiosity.
"Obviously," He scoffed. " I mean look at her she obviously is crying to seem like she didn't do it."
But is that true? I guess I have to wait to see if she really did it.
Make Your Arguement!
"So let me get try to understand what your getting at Maizono stole the vase?" Maina asked trying to understand this situation.
"No that's wrong! I didn't do it!" cried Maizono trying to defend herself but half of what she said was muffled in tears.
"Quiet you! If you wish to prove your innocence, present some evidence!" demand Akiraka.
"Mmf!" Maizono tried to speak but couldn't formed the words.
"Since you have no evidence you might as well admit defeat!" annouced Shinrai.
Truth bullet: Sayaka Maizono: Alibi
Wait this is my chance! "YOU GOT THAT WRONG!"
"Hm? You talking to me?" He asked as if he said something wrong.
"Yes," I answer. " There's a problem with your statement just now. Doesn't Maizono have an actual alibi. Didn't she go to a meeting and didn't come until P.E. was almost done?"
"Yes that's right!" Maizono agreed in between her tears.
"But couldn't she've just lied and stolen the vase?" Maina questioned.
"No that's impossible because ..." I began. The answer was simple. "I GOT IT!" I exclaimed. " The answer is simple if you really wanted to do you could ask the people who were trying to sign her up"
As if Ren expected me to say that he retorted," Well why couldn't she have tooken the vase before this? Can you prove to me she didn't take the vase before hand?"
Maizono-san looked at me with eyes full of hope to see if I could answer. I smiled to assure her that I had things under control. I answered "THIS SHOULD PROVE IT!" I presented the evidence, student's bags "If you really wanted to check her bag? I mean if she did take it before she couldn't hide it because she came at almost the end right?
"Urk!" Akiraka gasped in suprised in a way his bang didn't covered his eye.
He looked like he was about to say something. I get myself for his agurement. I have a suspicison he'll try to make me think a different way but I know there's only one true hole in the argurement.
Make your agurement!
"Well if she is not the culprit then doesn't that make Maina the culprit?" Shinrai asked trying to comfirmed his suspicisions.
"Huh!? Why me?!" She asked in astonisment.
"Well I know I'm innocent so you must be guilty Maina!" Akiraka accused.
"YOU GOT THAT WRONG!"
Truth bullet: Maina: Alibi
"No Yui has an alibi as well I mean she was at the nursery right?"
"That's right!" Maizono-san agreed, "Even if there was no nurse there was still a sign-in sheet so there would've been recorded evidence on the paper!"
"So I guess we need to decide who's the culprit by majority," Akiraka suggested.
I see that what he said might turn into a debate. I don't think I need to disagree with anyone. I think if I find something from someone I think it might support the evidence.
Make your agurement!
"I mean he's right we all have an alibi." Shinrai tried to support Akiraka statement.
"But doesn't someone's albi not have support" Maizono suggested.
"I AGREE WITH YOU!"
Truth bullet: Akiraka: Alibi
"You're talking about Akiraka's alibi right?" I question trying to comfirm my suspicions. she nods, signaling for me to go on. " Your alibi doesn't really help you. It proves you came late but in fact it actually proves your guilt! It also prove that" I take a big breath and get ready for my acusation. "YOU'RE THE CUPRIT!"
"Wha!" Akiraka gasps.
I prepare myself for the arguement to start. I'm pretty sure there's an easy contradiction in this debate.
"There's absolutly no reason for me to blame anybody besides protecting myself!" Ren exclaims.
Truth bullet: Sayaka Maizono : Reputation.
"Actually there's an acurate reason for you to blame someone besides protecting yourself," I anounce "I mean Maizono-san is really talented, if people knew she was a thief rumors were spread and some people might even exagerate it." I hear Maizono-san gasp in suprised as I continue," You could've easily accused Shinrai for not having anyone else to have seen him, but instead you helped him. You also could've accused Maina from the begining but you only used it as a last resort. The reason isn't something as you needed to accused Maizono. It's something as simple you wanted to! You wanted to ruin the reputation of Maizono!"
"Grr..." He growled his bangs away from his eyes again and I can see him clearly suprised."Shut up... Shut up! SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP! Prove to me I did it. Prove it I dare you!"
I get ready for our little showdown. You can't stop me now!
Panic Talk Action!
"Your evidence is false!" Ren concluded
"My evidence was given from the teacher, So the only reason is if it is false is if someone lied" I responded
"SHUT UP!" He yelled
"I need to prove your guilt, so please just make it easier for us all" I retort.
" THERE'S NO WAY YOU COULD PROVE I DID THE CRIME!" He yelled.
I just need to say four simple words and I'm pretty sure he'll be hanging by a thread.
Let's
Check
Your
Bag
"This Is The Answer!"
With that I ended all doubt in our mind.
"Well," I began. " If you are truly innocent as you say then let's check your bag! If I'm right then you must have put it in a place where you could keep a close eye on the vase!" To put one final nail in his coffin I decided to summerize the case.
CLOSING STATEMENT!
" It started when the culprit didn't participate in gym class" A silhouette of a person appeared in my head. " He had something against the teacher for some reason and he knew exactly hoe to show the teacher whose boss..." The silhouette in my head was grabing at what seems like a vase. " A faimly heirloom, the Vase!" The Silhouette then stuffed the vase in to his bag, not before looking at a window. "While he was stealing the vase he caught a glimpse of a suspect Shinrai Dekimasen! After stuffing the bag he went back to class and came up with a sinister idea." The silhouette smirked evily. "Try to pin the blame on Sayaka Maizono to ruin her reputation! Isn't that right..." The silhouette slowly dissovled into a frightened "Akiraka Giruti?!"
And that was the last straw, unanimously we all decided who the culprit was.
AKIRAKA GIRUTI WAS FOUND GUILTY!
IT'S PUNISHMENT TIME!
The teacher grabbed Akiraka and escorted him outside of the room and I assumed she gave him a tounge lashing given by the noise outside.
I was about to leave to see if the teacher had finish my test yet but I was stopped by Maizono, " Naegi, I just wanted thank you!" She thanked as she bowed her head, "I mean I don't know what would've happen if you didn't participate I would've probably be unable to make a proper case for myself." Before I could say anything she took her leave. I did the same leaving Maina and Shinrai in the room. I wonder if the teacher is done with the test?
Actually I wonder a lot of things like if i'll ever meet Maizono again. Probably not. I mean i heared she 'ultimate' material. That's too bad I would've like to see more of her. If only I was a ultimate. I scoff, Like that would happen! I'm as bland as they get, but I guess could always hope.
