Joey stepped forward to Croquet, "alright, go ahead. Ask me something."
Croquet looked suspiciously at Joey, "Your too confident. Why should I believe that you didn't kill Pegasus? He almost cheated you out of this tournament."
Joey shrugged, "yeah, but why would I kill him for that? And I know you going to ask so I'll let you know now that I was with Tristin and Duke in the dinning room making sure they didn't hit on my little sister too much." He looked over at Serenity.
"He's telling the truth. We were there. The he left to get something to eat. That was only a little before Tea screamed. He couldn't have done it because he was either with us or in the kitchen with Merik." Serenity said.
"AS much as I hate helping him out, that's true. As I said before, he came into the kitchen a little while before Tea screamed but he left a few seconds before she screamed but that still doesn't give him enough time to kill Pegasus." Merik confirmed.
"Hmmm," Croquet said thoughtfully, "Well, does anyone know what Joey did between the time he left Serenity and the time he got to the kitchen? I doubt it. So, I think." he started off again, still talking to himself, "I think he left the Dinning room here," he pointed at the hall then walked off again, "He then walked past the Billiard room, seeing Pegasus. He saw that I wasn't around and decided to get revenge. He then ran to my room where the gun was kept," Croquet continued as he ran back towards his room, "He grabbed the lead pipe and smashed the lock open. He then ran back to the billiard room with the gun and shot Pegasus!" He turned to Joey, "So?"
Joey blinked and nothing more.
"That's ridiculous," Yugi said, "Joey would never do that."
"Hold on Yug," Joey said, "part of that story was correct. I did think about killing Pegasus because he tried to kill you and some of my other friends. I was the one who broke the lock and took the gun but I didn't kill him. As I was running back to the billiard room, I realize what I was doing was stupid so I stopped and went back. I replaced the gun then left. I swear I didn't kill him though."
"Joey. why didn't you tell us?" Mai said, sounding very surprised.
"I thought Croquet would kill me or something. I'm sorry guys." Joey said, looking rather ashamed of himself.
"Well, well, well. Looks like Wheeler was a bad dog. Someone ought to get that dog a leash." Kaiba said, smirking at Joey.
"That's it Kaiba!" Joey yelled, "I think someone ought to get you a muzzle!" He lunged at Kaiba but Yugi stopped him.
"Well," Croquet said, thinking out loud, "He sure is violent enough but for some reason, I think he's telling the truth. This Mutt."
"STOP CALLING ME THAT!" Joey screamed, "I'M NOT A DOG!!"
Croquet cleared his throat, "Ok, I think Mr. Wheeler isn't capable of killing someone. I doubt he could even kill a mosquito not to mention Pegasus. Let's move on to a more likely suspect."
"Are you saying I'm weak you jerk?" Joey asked gruffly.
"Joey stop, you're just going to get in trouble," You cut in.
Joey stopped and stepped back, "Fine. Let's move on."
Croquet looked suspiciously at Joey, "Your too confident. Why should I believe that you didn't kill Pegasus? He almost cheated you out of this tournament."
