Inspiration: Who Killed Markiplier?
Chapter 10
"Alright, lets get this over with." BJ said with a snap of his fingers, causing both Eri and Kota to suddenly disappear.
"Wh-What just happened? What did you do?!" Shino panicked at her nephews sudden absence.
"The next few viewings are rather inappropriate for our resident youngsters, so I sent them away for the time being." BJ said nonchalantly as he gets ahold of the next tape. They needed to get to this quick after all.
"But wh-"
Aizawa places a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "It's alright Mandalay. He most likely sent them off with the alternate Midoriya to watch over them."
While still a little uneasy, Shino let out a sigh and got back into her seat. If it's Midoriya, then Kota should be ok. "Well... alright. But is there anything about this... 'alternate Midoriya' I should know about."
After thinking it over, Toru popped up with one specific fact about him. "He's a father."
"Oh... Wait what?"
"No time! We are going in to the next one right now!" BJ shouted, frustrated with how long they were taking.
"But what ab-"
"Now!"
The screen cuts to a rather large mansion, though everything appears to be in a grayscale tone. We see multiple views of the mansion before the title card comes up.
'Who killed Deku?'
Uraraka almost immediately gets nervous by the title alone. "Oh no. I don't think I can handle another one where Deku dies."
"Can't say I don't share the same feeling. Seeing our classmate die multiple times in these viewings has been... uncomforting to the least." Tokoyami stated.
"Check out that mansion though. It's almost as big as yours Yaomomo!" Mina said.
After pulling up your watch to check the time, you look around at the large manor. As you do, your eyes catch sight of a tall man wearing wears a safari hunter outfit with a 10 gallon pith helmet and black boots.
"Looks like this will be from the perspective of someone. I wonder who though." Shoji wondered.
Hearing you behind him, he turns to you in curiosity, giving you full view of his face, as well as his bushy green mustache. "Oh, bully! And here I thought I was gonna be the last guest to arrive. My friends call me the Colonel." The Colonel says with a small bow.
"God dam, that's the bushiest mustache I have ever seen." Kirishima noted.
Toru couldn't help but giggle. "Gotta say, Midoriya looks a little silly with a mustache."
"If you think that's silly, you should have seen him rocking a small beard when we were disguising ourselves" Kirishima said, chuckling at the memory.
"You're welcome to do the same, should it please you. But uh... after you." He motions towards the door, allowing you entry.
Walking through the door, you come across a blonde man in a white dress shirt and black vest, finished with a bowtie.
"Ah, bonjour! Welcome to Deku Manor. Your invitation, please." Aoyama said, you handing over your invitation in turn.
"Wow Aoyama, you pull off that butler look pretty well." Mina complemented him.
"Why of course, though there is a severe lack of color or shine." Aoyama said with his signature sparkles, much to the humor of his classmates.
Todoroki notices something on the invitation. "By the writing on the envelope, we appear to be a district attorney."
"An attorney? Then we must be the one who will be tasked with solving the crime." Kaminari said, his voice laced with excitement.
"What? Attorneys don't do that. That's for police or detectives to figure out."
"Have you not played any attorney videogames?"
"I... don't believe I have. I'm not really one for videogames."
"This just got sad." Kaminari said with a sad sigh, much to the confusion of Todoroki.
"Very good, very good. Right this way. Good luck at the table tonight. I shall fetch you a drink forthwith." Aoyama gives you a pleasant smile before leaving the room.
Getting further inside, you see a familiar face. A green-haired man wearing a black tuxedo wielding a cane appears to be having a conversation with a red/white-haired man wearing a tan trench coat along with a deerstalker hat.
"Wow Todoroki, in that getup, you sort of look like a detective." Kirishima said with a small chuckle.
"Hm, a detective. I wonder why." Todoroki mumbled, all the while taking in everything that might be a clue in his friends eventual death.
Something catches Iida's attention. "Wait, isn't that Midoriya talking to him?" He said, drawing everyone's attention to it.
"Wait, yeah it is. What is he doing there? I thought we just past him outside." Jirou questioned. "And how'd he change so quickly?"
The green haired man sees you coming and smiles in recognition. "Oh! There you are, old friend. How are you settling into your new office?"
"I am so confused here."Midnight said.
"You don't understand? It's clear he's a different person." Nezu stated.
"What makes you say that?" Asked Aizawa.
"He's acting and talking different than before, is wearing something else and has a 'Mayor' pin on, and is acting like we know each other, despite the Colonel acting as if that was your first meeting. So, with all of those facts, it's clear this Midoriya is a different person." Nezu finished with an inquisitive sip of his tea. "Also, we literally just past the Colonel."
This brought silence to the room, as the principal's theory seemed to hold weight. All Might couldn't help but sigh at his boss showing off his intellect. "As intuitive as alway's sir."
"Now, I know it'll take some getting used to, but there's no one I would rather have alongside me to protect this great city of ours. Now I'll see you at the table soon, but try not to rob me blind again." The Mayor says with a chuckle as he starts walking out of the room. "We'll catch up."
"This Midoriya is definitely more charismatic than ours." Noted Tsuyu.
"But of course, one doesn't just become Mayor without being appealing." All Might stated.
Walking around the manor, you come across what may be some sort of dining room. Picking up a silver platter from the table was a large man wearing a sort of chef's suit.
"Hey look Satou, you're the chef." Mina giggled. "You got the hat and everything."
"Pretty fitting if you ask me." Jirou said with a smirk.
"If you're looking for hors d'oeuvres, I'll get them when I'm good and ready!" Satou growled as he glared at you. While leaving the room, he looks back at you and thrusts a kitchen ladle up in your face threateningly. "And stay out of my kitchen!"
"Jeez, chill out man. Glad we got our Satou instead of this one." Toru said.
"Now, now. Let's not be rude to our guest." Aoyama says, hoping to stop any conflict as he enters the room. Walking over to him, Aoyama picks up a martini glass and hands it to you. "So sorry about that. Here's your champagne. Enjoy your evening."
As he leaves the room, you hear someone walking down the stairs. A green-haired man comes into view wearing a shiny red robe. "Welcome, welcome, one and all! My name is Deku. Thank you for joining me on this auspicious evening."
"Huh... He is certainly more... gaudy than our Midoriya." Iida noted. "Is this one different too?"
"Most likely. I doubt the mayor of a city could have the expenses necessary to afford a place like this." Todoroki stated as he wrote down some notes in a notebook, causing everyone to wonder when did he get that, and Mina to think he was just mimicking Midoriya.
"So good to be surrounded by such close and trusted friends. Now, this evening, it's not all about the poker. It's not all about me. It's about you. So drink up and be merry! Life is for the living! And who knows, I could be dead tomorrow."
"Foreshadowing." Kaminari stated.
"But who casually says something like that though." Mineta wondered.
"Pretty sure at this point that this was probably made for comedic entertainment." Tokoyami concluded, finding it all too weird to be a real occurrence.
Deku starts laughing hysterically as you down your champagne. His laugh starts getting distorted as you feel the alcohol kicking in, your vision getting blurry as well.
EDM music starts playing as we see a montage of the nights events. While things start off fine, with them dancing, playing poker, and even playing a fun game of beer pong with a suit of armor, things start to get a little out of hand. They chug more alcohol, the Colonel puts Todoroki in a headlock and almosts punches Aoyama after rejecting his flask, the two play a game of Russian Roulette with a real gun, though fortunately no ones hurt, though Todoroki does punch you later on. The last thing you remember is the Mayor checking up on you after the punch before you head off to bed at 1:30 a.m.
"Wow, didn't think Midori had it in him to throw a party like that." Mina said, impressed.
"Maybe if got him drinking, he'll loosen up a bit. God knows he needs to." Toru said.
Aizawa however, unpleased with the idea they were proposing, activated his quirk to appear more threatening. "Don't even think about it." He said with a glare, immediately removing any possible plan the two any have made.
Hearing an alarm, you open your eyes to see it is now 8:30 in the morning. Letting out a quiet yawn, you get out of bed and leave the room. Standing outside your room was the butler, holding a platter with a single glass on it.
"Ah, good morning. Hope you had a good night's rest." Aoyama grabs the single drink on the platter and hands it to you. "I've prepared you a seltzer with cocaine. Best thing for the morning after, if you ask me." He says with a wink before walking off.
"Ok, even if he's not the killer, Aoyama is still pretty suspicious." Sero noted.
By the stairs, you see the Mayor, whom instantly smiles at your presence. "Ah, there's our little monster! You really knocked 'em dead last night. I haven't seen you go wild like that since our days at university. Good to let the beast out every once in awhile, eh, old friend?"
"Seems like we go way back." Shouji mentioned.
A look of worry creeps up on his face however. "Then again, I'm still not exactly sure as to what we're supposed to be celebrating here. I mean, it's good to have the gang back together, but... out of the blue like this seems…"
"Out of the blue? Did they not have contact with Deku for a while?" Uraraka asked curiously.
"And they don't know what they were celebrating?" Tsuyu said. "Seems like something shady is going on."
Deciding to shake the nervous feeling away, his face regains his signature charming smile.
"Anyway, now is not the time to become conspiratorial. Life is ours to choose as I always say. I have some work to finish, but I'll meet you at breakfast. We'll all catch up soon." The Mayor says as he leaves.
Toru smiles at this, not that anyone could see it. "I like Mayor Midoriya. Oo, that has a good ring to it. We should get Midoriya to run for Mayor when we get back."
Walking down the stairs, you reach the bottom floor. A suit of armor, the very same used for beer pong the previous night, catches your attention. However, your attention gets dragged elsewhere as you get the brief instant of a large object falling down to your side.
Looking down, you see the unmoving body of Deku, the host and owner of the mansion. Lightning strikes loudly as you gaze upon the body.
This startled everyone. While they were sure they would see Midoriya dead soon, they hadn't expected him to just fall beside them out of nowhere.
Before long however, you see Todoroki start to walk in.
"Did anyone hear that lightning? OH MY GOD! THERE'S BEEN A MURDER!" Todoroki shouts as he sees the body, another lighting strike occurring.
"Excuse me. Did you hear light-OH MY GOD MURDER!" Aoyama freaks as he also comes in, with yet another lighting strike occurring.
Satou comes in. "Did you-? MUUUURDER!" He yells as, you guessed it, another lighting strike occurs.
"Ok, what is up with the lightning striking when they say murder?" Satou wondered.
"Perhaps it is just a coincidence." Kaminari shrugged.
"No, it is no coincidence." They hear Todoroki say to himself as he writes this down. "Once is a fluke. Twice is a coincidence. But three times is a pattern. There's something else here."
"...Or it's all just for comedy, like I said earlier." Jirou said, feeling that going down the supernatural route was jumping the gun a bit.
Todoroki aggressively grabs you. "What the hell happened here? Who's in charge around here? Trick question: That guy." He points over to Deku on the ground.
"Way to point out the obvious Sherlock." Bakugou rolled his eyes.
"And he's dead now, which makes me in charge. So you better listen up good, bucko. 'Case you haven't been paying attention, there's been a bit of a... killin'." Todoroki says before pausing for a sec, him and Satou looking around curiously, having thought they'd hear lighting again.
"So lightning only strikes when they specifically say 'murder'?" Tsuyu questioned. "That's an odd detail. Kero."
Deciding to just ignore it, he resumes his interrogation. "And you're my prime suspect! So you better get to explaining right quick as to the what, where, when and why you happened to be here upon this man's death!"
"Sir, the body is cold. He's been dead a while." Aoyama states.
Todoroki however chuckles at this. "A likely story! That I happen to believe completely."
The class could hardly hold back their snickering at this Todoroki's silly personality.
"Alright, you're off the hook for now, but I'm a detective, and-"
"Oh yeah? Prove you're a real dick!" Satou calls him out.
Rolling his eyes, Todoroki pulls out his badge. "Here's my badge. Asshole." He grunts as he shows off his badge. It expands however and shows off a multitude of photos featuring himself and other people. "Ah, those are my old partners. Don't ask me about them. Fine! I'll tell you."
"It's strange to see Todoroki being so... eccentric." Tokoyami noted.
Todoroki picks the photos back up to his badge. "Each one of them died. Each death more tragic than the last. A few of them even died in ironically hilarious ways." He says, Satou giving you a concerned look as he hears this.
"That's certainly not concerning at all." Mineta said sarcastically.
"Why do I feel like he's going to make us his new partner?" Yaoyorozu wondered, hoping she would be wrong.
"Which made it all the more tragic. But hey, you look like you're up to the task. You're my new partner." He tells you with a smile.
You shake your head in refusal, not wanting to become Todoroki's partner, in which he laughs.
"That's what all my old partners used to say. Right before they died." He said, Satou looking even more concerned about this than before.
"We're gonna die aren't we?" Mirio asked aloud.
"Most likely." Nezu replied.
"Alright. Hand me that fingerprinting kit behind you, partner." Todoroki tells you with a wink. Looking behind yourself, you fail to see a fingerprinting kit of any kind. However, as you turn back to the others, everything has changed.
Deku's body has been covered with a tarp, with traffic cones and caution tape surrounding it. All in all, it looked like a legit crime scene.
"What just happened?" All Might asked, surprised by the sudden shift. "Did we just skip through time?"
"Looks like it. Though it was probably just a cut. Like in a film." Mina stated, believing it to be the case.
Looking at Todoroki, you see him dressed similar to how he was last night. In his hands seems to be the fingerprinting kit you were just looking for.
"Thanks, partner." Todoroki said before tossing the kit down to the ground as he inspects the body.
Jirou looked at this confused. "Why even ask for it if you're not even gonna use it?"
Entering the room, the Mayor looks upon the setup in confusion. "What the hell happened here?"
"Well, looks like we got confirmation that the Mayor and Deku are two different people in this." Melissa mentioned.
"Oh! Mr. Mayor. I'm so sorry. There's been a murder." Aoyama says, lightning clashes.
"A murder?" The Mayor asks, startled as lighting hits again. "Who?"
Satou shrugs. "It's Deku."
"I'm afraid he's telling the truth. Deku's been... killed." Todoroki states.
"Why? Who would do this?" The Mayor questions.
"That's exactly what me and my new partner here are here to find out." Todoroki motions to you as he stands up.
Aoyama raises a hand at this. "Um, excuse me. I feel like we should call the authorities for them to handle this matter."
"The first rational thought made." Tsuyu said.
"Look, buddy, as far as you're concerned, I am the authorities." Todoroki states as he shows off his badge again, photos of his past partners falling out again.
"Talk about letting power get to your head." Mina snickered at the photos falling out again.
"The fact of the matter is, I believe the killer is right here amongst us in this very house. With that freaky lightning storm outside, none of us would get very far anyway." Todoroki says as he places the photos back. "So, in the meantime, we're stuck here. But I'm gonna get to the bottom of this. The rest of you, get back to your rooms, hunker down, and pray to God you're not next to be murdered." Lightning clashes once again.
"I'll… I'll check on our guests." Aoyama leaves the room.
"I'll get back to cooking. All this death made me hungry." Said Satou before he leaves as well.
"I can definitely go for some cake right now." Satou groaned, before a platter of cake suddenly appeared in his lap. "That'll do." He said with a smile before digging in.
The Mayor has a troubled look on his face as he processes everything he's just learned. "I… I-I need to talk to the Colonel about this." He says before leaving to find the Colonel.
"So the Mayor and Colonel know each other?" Midnight wondered aloud.
"All right, partner. It's time to get to work." Todoroki says as you join him down on the ground beside the body. "Judging by the temperature of the body that I measured rectally, which is obviously the most accurate way to get the inner body temperature of a corpse. That's a fact, totally procedure. Don't tell anyone I did it."
"Wow, looks like you got quite... acquainted with Midori's ass, eh Todoroki?" Mina teased.
"It would appear so." He replied, not even giving her so much as a glance.
Mina groaned at this. "You are no fun whatsoever."
"Mhm." He hummed, making it clear he was not even listening.
"I am sure Deku was killed around 1:30 a.m. last night." He states before gaining a look of realization. He stands up and points a finger toward you. "So what were you doing at 1:30 a.m. last night?"
You flashback to the night prior, when you were in bed by 1:30 a.m. on the dot, EDM music still playing. Before long, you return back to the present.
"I'm gonna ignore the strange fact that you sleep with your eyes open. But it checks out." Todoroki says as you stand back up.
"How? There's no way he could have seen that flashback." Uraraka stated.
"So, we need to figure out where everyone was and what they were doing around that time or, at the very least, who saw Deku last. You need to get out there. See if you can piece together the story of what happened last night. I'll stick around with the body and run more…" Todoroki subtly shakes his eyebrows at you. "... tests." He says as he stiffs his finger and lowers back down to the body.
"Um... Todoroki?" Mina started.
"Yes?"
"Is there anything you feel like sharing with the class?"
"Not that I can think of."
"Absolutely nothing at all? Not even about your possible feelings for our resident cinnamon bun?"
"Of course I have feelings for him..." Todoroki stated, much to the shock of everyone. Before they could react however, he continued. "I feel great respect and admiration for Midoriya. I thought you all knew that."
Everyone wanted to facepalm at this, feeling that they should have known that Todoroki misinterpret it.
Mina groaned, having given up on teasing Todoroki. "Never mind."
"Oh, how can you be so flippant?" You hear as you leave the room, following the sound to a room nearby.
Making your way towards it, you look from outside the room and see the Mayor.
"Flippant?! I'm taking this matter very seriously." You hear what sounds to be the Colonel from further in the room, out of your site.
"Oh, don't give me that horseshit! I know you hated him, but... god damn it, he reached out to you!" The Mayor shouted angrily.
"The plot thickens." Mirio noted.
"Oh, what do you want from me, then?"
"Wh-I want you to care!"
"Just because I'm not weeping like a child doesn't mean that I don't care."
"I can't believe you. You come and find me when you pull your head out of your ass!" The Mayor says, enraged as he leaves the room and bumps into you. "Excuse me." He grumbles before passing by you.
"It's still so odd to see Midoriya so angry." Toru said, not having gotten used to the normally happy and/or nervous boy they knew being genuinely pissed.
Walking into the room, you find the Colonel sitting on a chair.
"Izuku, I don't-Oh! Ah! Good to see you again!" The Colonel says happily as he gets up from the chair. "You were quite the rapscallion at last night's festivities. But you're probably here to help the detective with his 'investigation of murder'." He air quotes before getting startled by lightning.
"Does he think the murder didn't even happen?" Jirou wondered.
"Anyway. I'll help you, I'll tell you what happened to our dear friend Deku."
We cut to a flashback of what the Colonel believes must have happened. We see Deku, Todoroki, and Aoyama at a poker table, with the latter two looking very displeased.
"Oh! Look at me! My name is Deku, now! Forget all my friends or the people who helped me along the way; just look at my money! Oh, I need to pay people to be my friends! Ha ha ha! You like me? Too bad! Oh, glug glug! Oopsie poopsie! I can't hold my booze. Gotta go off to the little boys' room. Who wants to join me?" 'Deku' says obnoxiously as the Colonel dubs him.
It was very silent in the room for a bit, before erupting in laughter from most of the class, even some of the teachers, lead by Bakugou of all people.
We now see Deku making his way up the stairs. "I'm gonna go there upon my stairs. My house has more than one staircase. Oh, look at me and how great I am! Oh no, I'm falling! Aaah, I'm dead." The Colonel concludes as the flashback ends. "And that's what happened. Probably, anyway." He shrugs.
"So his belief is that Deku had fallen from the stairs after getting drunk last night?" Uraraka concluded.
"That doesn't make sense. If that happened, how did he fall down the stairs again just that morning. Plus, the detective stated how the body has to have died last night, so it has to be a murder." Nezu stated.
"So, if you need to corroborate this story with anybody else, just be on your way and investigate the entire house. Go now. I'll be here when you're done." The Colonel motions you to leave, in which you decide to oblige.
Right before you reach the exit however, Aoyama pops his head through the door and motions you towards him.
"Come with me. I need to show you something." He says, you following him out the room.
"Wait... that can't be right." Yaoyorozu said with a confused expression.
"What can't be right?" Toru asked.
"That door should have lead right back to the crime scene, but we are now somewhere completely different."
"Maybe it was just a cut so we don't spend a long time watching them walk."
"Perhaps." Yaoyorozu finished, believing she may have been overthinking it. Todoroki however, jotted this down in his notes. Anything that was off, was worth noting to him.
"Now, if you're looking for answers, there's really no mystery at all. There's not a single detail of this house that I'm not privy to, and not a single guest that I have not personally vetted." You and him walk through the mansion before he suddenly stops you. "Now I warn you: what you are about to see is not for the faint of heart. A domain of evil this is..." The two of you reach another staircase, this one leading further down.
"Quite foreboding." Tokoyami said as he looked down the stairs, sensing a dark aura radiating out of it.
"But in we must go." Aoyama hesitates in going down. "You first."
Walking down the stairs, you arrive at what appears to be a wine cellar. You look around in anticipation for just what Aoyama was so nervous about. Looking down, you see just what had frightened him so much.
Everyone tensed up, unsure as to what they may find.
A broken wine glass laid on the floor.
"AVERT YOUR EYES!" Aoyama rushes in with a dustpan and a broom and starts cleaning it up. "I'm so sorry you had to see this! Master would be so displeased! If only he were still alive!" He cried.
"That's it?" Tokoyami said surprised. "This is the 'domain of darkness'?"
"But of course. Any place not looking it's very best is the sight of evil." Aoyama stated, disappointed in his other self for not taking care of it sooner. Everyone else merely rolled their eyes, having felt as if they just got duped.
Todoroki, of course, still wrote it down.
Aoyama starts sobbing loudly as you slowly, and awkwardly, leave up the stairs. Getting to the top, you find yourself in the kitchen. Satou could be seen chopping up some... spaghetti and meatballs? In a rather unconventional way.
"Why is Satou chopping up spaghetti and meatballs?" Kirishima said, confused.
"I thought I told you to stay out of my kitchen!" Satou growls as he waves around the knife. "Oh. You're helping that dick with his little investigation, huh? Well, I might look like a sweet and innocent man, but some people with short lifespans might think otherwise. I can't imagine why, can you?" He growled through his teeth.
"I can think of one or two reasons." Mirio chuckled.
"Last night, after I got rid of all of the evidence…"
Everyone gasped in surprise at Satou supposedly admitting to the crime.
"... of that delicious meal I prepared,"
"Oh..." They all collectively groaned at the misdirect.
"And wiped down all the fingerprints…"
Kaminari gasped again. "So he did do-"
"Wait for it." Jirou interupted.
"...from those filthy dishes."
"Called it." Jirou said snarkily.
"And sopped up all that blood..."
They all wait for the misdirect. "And...?" Jirou questioned.
"I retired to my room at 1:00 a.m. and left my little buddy in charge, like I always do." Satou finishes as he motions to his Little Buddy(Get your mind out of the gutter!), as he gives him a peck on the cheek.
Kirishima raised an eyebrow at this. "You have a little statue of yourself?"
"What? No. Of course not." Satou denied, not wanting to tell them about his own 'Little Buddy' he made when he was young.
"Are we just ignoring that blood comment?" Jirou questioned.
"He sees everything. Why don't you ask him what happened last night?"
Deciding to take his word for it, you get a closer look at the 'Little Buddy.' We then cut to what appears to be surveillance footage, designating itself as 'LITTLE BUDDY'
"Oo, a security camera!" Mina said excitedly.
"Why would he have one in that thing?" Jirou wondered aloud.
"Is leaving cameras in your belongings weird?" Toru asked curiously.
"Wha... Why would you... Questions for later."
We cut to different feeds, each on different days, as well as different areas of the mansions. No one appeared to be on any of them though.
However, this changed once you reach a feed from 3 days prior. You see from behind some blinds what appears to be Todoroki waiting in a room.
"Todoroki?" Everyone collectively said to themselves.
"Shoto!" Is heard as Deku walks up to Todoroki, the two sharing a friendly handshake.
"Deku! Good to see ya." Todoroki says happily.
"Great to see ya. Look, I'll cut right to the chase. Chef, butler, Good?" Deku asks.
"Chef's an asshole, but he's clean. Uh.. Butler, he's a new guy. Also an asshole, but he's also clean." Todoroki states.
"Well, I wouldn't have it any other way." Deku says before the feed cuts to black.
"So he had me do background checks on the chef and butler?" Todoroki questioned. "Guess I just worked with him on occasion."
"I don't know, you two also seem pretty close. There's definitely more here than a simple work-related relationship." Nezu stated.
Backing away from Little Buddy, you turn to see Satou gone, nowhere in site. Deciding to leave the kitchen, you stop by a glass door and go outside to the patio.
Walking through the patio, you come across the Mayor pacing about, his cane clutched tightly in his hands.
"It's odd he seems to be the only one truly troubled by the murder." Tsuyu noted.
Catching sight of you, lets out a small sigh as he walks over to you. "Look, I'm sorry you saw that argument with the Colonel. I lost my temper, and it wasn't right and… he must be in shock. The Colonel's an eccentric; it's his best quality and his worst. But he's my friend, and… so was Deku." He says, his earlier confidence wavering.
"This death is really getting to him. He's nothing like he was earlier." Kaminari said, feeling bad for the guy.
"I know I'm supposed to be a leader in this scenario, but I can't help but feel lost! I've known Deku for years, since we were kids! And he's just gone?" He pauses for a bit as he tries to gather himself.
Everyone couldn't help but feel sympathy for the Mayor. Losing your childhood friend in a day would not be easy for anyone.
"I don't have any answers right now. I just need to be alone… to process all of this. We'll all talk soon, but I need to think." The Mayor walks off.
"Hey! Partner!" You hear from behind you. Turing around, you find Todoroki hiding poorly behind some plants. "Get over here, now! Hurry up!" He says with urgency as he motions for you to follow him back inside.
"I don't have a good feeling about this." Mina stated.
"Midoriya just died and you expected anything other than bad things?" Tsuyu asked, confused.
"You're not gonna believe this; I can barely believe this! The body: It's gone. It's just fucking disappeared. Look!" He says as you two go inside.
Getting back to the crime scene, you see that Deku's body has indeed gone missing. All that was left in its place was an outline of the body made with tape, with a... rather generous outline of his nether region added.
While they were all initially surprised by the body's disappearance, many couldn't hold back their chuckles at the dick outline Todoroki added.
"How childish, to even outline... 'that' of all things." Yaoyorozu said, refusing to get flustered and give the others, mainly Mina and Toru, something to tease her over.
"I don't know Yaoyorozu, he needed to be thorough so we get everything. Plus, 'that' is anything but childish." Midnight teased, succeeding in getting Yaoyorozu flustered.
"Alright, that's enough pervy comments for now. We got one last spooky viewing for Halloween, and we need to get moving." BJ said as he starts prepping up for the next viewing.
"You look pretty stressed Mr. BJ." Iida stated.
"Firstly, I am stressed. And secondly, DON'T CALL ME THAT!"
AN: I should take the time to say this, this one was a long time coming.
I had planned to do "Who Killed Markiplier?" for almost a year now. The plan was to do every episode throughout October. But, unfortunately, I had forgotten about this plan until the majority of the month was gone.
So since I had no time to do the whole series by the end of October, and still wanted to at least do one, here we are. So I kind of rushed.
Anyway, change of topic, I implore you all to give me suggestions of not only possible viewings, but also possible candidates for characters in previous viewings. Like in this case, we still need a Celine and George if I do this one again. And I don't know who to pick for them.
I like having the characters I place in these make sense, or at least be funny, like how I have Todoroki as the detective in this one. So, if a character hasn't been seen yet in one universe, give me a suggestion on who would be a good fit. It would definitely help me do multiple parts of a universe more often.
Welp, one more to go. Expect it on Halloween. Hopefully after that, I can get to my other stories. I know a lot of people have been waiting on them.
Later
