OK, you've chosen Cuddles as the killer. Let's see if you're right.
Everyone glanced at Cuddles.
"Me? What would make you think I killed innocent people and destroyed the Happy Tree Town Hall?" he asked.
"Well, according to your criminal record, you had a few trespassing laws broken and several shoplifting charges." Nutty answered.
"OK, I will say I did jaywalk and shoplift. But do you really think I'd kill innocent occupants, even my best friend?" he replied.
"Many of us think so Cuddles, including me. Besides, you could've killed Giggles so she wouldn't find out about your little one-night stand with Toothy." Flippy said.
Cuddles looked up at him shocked.
"One-night stand? Flippy, what are you talking about?"
Flippy pointed a finger at him as he spoke.
"Don't play dumb with me, Bunny Boy. I saw you kiss Toothy the night before Giggles was murdered."
Cuddles gasped.
"Me kissing Toothy? Flippy, I was drunk!" he retorted.
Petunia then asked "Drunk? Why?"
Cuddles sighed.
"Well…." He began.
(Flashback)
23rd October
11:47PM
It was Toothy's birthday.
Him, Cuddles and many others were at a club.
Toothy and Cuddles had been using fake IDs to buy alcohol at the bar.
In just half an hour or so, the two were completely plastered.
They drunkenly stumbled out the club.
Flippy was on the pavement on the other side of the road at that exact same time.
"I'm havin' a good time Toothy. You havin' a good time?" Cuddles asked Toothy, drunkenly.
"I'm havin' the time of my life buddy." Toothy replied, just as drunk as Cuddles.
The two staggered around a little before leaning against one another.
By accident, their lips collided.
They broke away, feeling absolutely embarrassed.
"Can this wait 'till we get home?" Toothy asked.
"Yeah, let's go." Cuddles said.
The two quickly staggered their way to Toothy's home.
When they were in the darkness of Toothy's bedroom, they just gave in to the lust they had.
They weren't sure if it was really lust or if it was the alcohol in their blood.
But at this point, they didn't really care.
"You sure you wanna do this?" Cuddles asked.
"I don't care anymore. Just do it." Toothy replied.
The two mashed their lips together, this time on purpose.
Their tongues slipped into each other's mouths.
Cuddles was pushed onto Toothy's bed.
Then, Toothy climbed onto his stomach, ripping off his shirt.
The two mashed their lips together all over again, wrestling their tongues at the same time.

"And then-." Cuddles continued.
Flippy held up his hand and said "Cuddles, spare us the details."
Nutty then said "OK, after your drunken experiment with Toothy, what happened?"
Cuddles continued "Well, I woke up, went home and Giggles was there. She never mentioned the one-night stand until the night. Giggles confronted me about it, I told her and then she claimed I cheated on her and just stormed out. That was the last time I saw her alive."
Flaky then said "OK, all that we didn't need to know."
Cuddles then interrupted by sadly saying "Besides, I never killed someone. I lost my girlfriend to anger then death. Now I've lost my friend to just death."
With that, he fell to his knees in front of Toothy's corpse.
"Why Toothy? WHY DID YOU HAVE TO LEAVE US SO SOON?" Cuddles yelled, crying.
He then dug his face into Toothy's neck and continued crying.
Flippy slowly walked over to Cuddles, kneeled down and placed a comforting arm on his shoulder.
"It's OK. You've still got us." Flippy said to Cuddles.
Flippy then pulled Cuddles into a hug.
Petunia looked back at Nutty.
"Looks like Cuddles is innocent." She said.
"Well, if he's not the killer, who is?"
Bad luck! You chose the wrong person. Don't worry, you'll get him/her eventually.
Go back to Chapter 13 and try again.
