Mai yawned and stepped forward, "I guess it's my turn now."
"Alright, where were you. aw forget it." Croquet said, obviously getting bored with this series of interrogations.
"I was with Kaiba. Dueling. He can back that up. I only left the room once and I had to grab my deck form my room. That was quite a bit erlier than the time Pegasus was killed. After that, I stayed there the entire time until I herd Tea scream." Mai said, easily confirming her story.
Croquet walked towards the billiard room once again, thinking to himself. Upon arriving, he walked over to Pegasus and looked at him, examining the bullet hole in his head and the gun lying on the floor. "Mai," he began, " we don't really know when he was killed. And also, did you know that Pegasus has had a strange crush on you since the Duelist Kingdom tournament?"
"yeah. I know. He jumped out at me when I was walking back to the Lounge to duel Kaiba. But that doesn't give me a reason to kill him. He never got his hands on me." Mai said.
"I bet he would have liked it if you had killed him," Croquet muttered under his breath.
"Alright Mai, I think you killed him and this is why. You left the lounge to get your deck from you room. On your way back, you passed Pegasus in the hall who dragged you into the billiard room. You didn't like being pushed around so you got free and grabbed the gun Joey had left by the door of the room. You ran back in and shot Pegasus to get back at him and to keep him away from you. You then got a reality shock and you realized what you had done. You walked into the room tried to frame it on someone else. You left the gun there so no one would catch you with it. You then ran back to the lounge to make it look like you were never there. When you told your story, you seamed a bit too confident. You not only offered to tell it, you seamed to have it already worked out. That's why I think you killed Mr. Pegasus. Am I right?" Croquet said.
Mai laughed in her usual annoying way, "Of course not. True, I didn't like what he did but I wasn't about to kill him for it. I got away from him almost instantly and I can fend for myself. I wasn't about to let him mess with me."
Croquet looked pissed. Every idea he had was being shot down. He was out of options. He looked around again for another scapegoat, "What about you, Tea? Or Tristin or Serenity or Duke? Did one of you do it? And if not. prove it."
Tea started first, "I was with Bakura for the first half hour or so then I was with Yugi. I think you've already heard my story. I ran into Kaiba in the hall then went to Yugi's room. What you don't know is that I left there and walked past Pegasus's room and saw him dead. I was on my way find Mai when I saw him."
Croquet looked to Tristin, Duke and Serenity, "What's your story?"
Tristin started, "We were in the dining room fighting over Serenity the entire time."
Duke seconded it quickly, "Yes. Tristin was getting jealous that she was more interested in me so he was trying to look better than me, which I might ad, is impossible."
Serenity rolled her eyes just as Tea spoke up, "You two are pathetic. Leave the girl alone!"
Croquet grumbled. "Fine, there's only one left. Bakura, your next."
