What's up it's your boy Trygve11 back at it again with the story, as you can tell I made some changes to the story, I thought it best to combine some chapters together making them longer and ultimately better so chapters 1 and 2 are combined, chapters 3-5 are combined and chapters 6 and 7 are combined for those who are wondering. I also added a photo and better chapter names to fit the way it is in the games. Anyway Teruteru died last time so he has been removed from the poll because of that and after chapter ten is released the blackened will be removed as well. Also don't forget to vote for victim and blackened for the second chapter anyway let's get on with the story.
Hallway 1:23 PM Ichiro's POV
Everyone was in extreme panic, about twenty people had gathered in the hallway and more and more were slowly trickling in, at this point Monokuma made an announcement over the intercom forcing everyone to go to the hallway outside the dining hall. After about five minute everyone had appeared. Then Monokuma made his announcement,
"So Teruteru bit it first how sad, anyway I know you all have many questions, so here is the jist of it. You will have an eight hour investigation period. You must gather evidence to prove and find out who the blackened or guilty part is. After the investigation period you will have a five hour class trial where you will try and piece together the evidence to prove who is guilty. I will also give each of you a monopod, that gives basic information on the murder sometime after the victim has been discovered. I will give you more information on the trial when it starts, so let the investigation begin"
A lot of people just stood there trying to comprehend what just happened, I started looking around for any smug, or faking distress reactions which I found really none so either whoever killed them is a good actor or they are just as shocked that they aren't walking free yet. At around this point Kirumi appeared obviously being released from her cage, which Hyoko noticed and ran up to her and gave her a big hug. At this point Kyoko, Shuichi, Togami, and myself all stepped forward to investigate while everyone else either left to cope with the situation, gathered alibies, or surrounded us.
"Hey Mikan" I yelled, Mikan jumped as I yelled and then walked closer to the scene in a timid manner.
"Y-yes Ichiro?" She asked
"As a nurse do you know how to preform autopsies?"
"Uh yes I-I do"
"Could you by chance do an autopsie on Teruteru"
"S-sure I guess"
At this moment the two boys stepped aside while Mikan worked with Kyoko on the autopsie because they both knew how to preform an autopsy. While we waited I looked around the scene to find a small piece of goldish clear plastic on the ground
"Hmm" I said
"What did you find there Ichiro" Makoto asked who decided to stay at the scene as well.
"It's a piece of plastic I found, I don't know what it could be used for though" Truth Bullet
"Yah I don't recognize it, but it must be important somehow"
At this moment Shuichi called us over to tell us about another important clue
"Excuse me guys I think I found something important as well. It seems like there is part of a shoe print on the edge of the blood splatter here" Truth Bullet Shuichi notices
"Hmm interesting, it doesn't look to big in size and it doesn't look like a regular tennis shoe, it looks like maybe an edge of a sandal" Truth Bullet Makoto offered
At this moment Mikan announced that the autopsy was finished, then Kyoko proceeded to explain what happened to Teruteru
"He has one sole stab wound in his chest where the kitchen knife was which was probably the fatal wound there were also some small bruises on his wrists as if he hit them against something small with some force he didn't have any other wounds besides that though." Truth Bullet
"Kyoko, by chance would this be planned or a rushed murder based on what you see?" I asked
"That is an interesting question, from the looks of things this seemed to be a little rushed, I think if this was planned we would have less evidence to go on and I think the knife and blood would both be gone" Truth Bullet
"Interesting, because Ryoma got a letter saying to meet him here" Truth Bullet
"Really, then that would explain why Ryoma was up with you at this time, but why were you up with him?"
"He asked me if I could accompany him here just in case he needed back up or help, because he suspected it was a trap" Truth Bullet
"Well he suspected right, but obviously Teruteru wasn't aware of this" Byakuya mentioned
"Actually maybe he did, are we able to access his room to see if there was anything in there that could help"
"Actually you can do that, but only during the investigation after the trial is over his room will be locked again from anyone besides myself" Monokuma said before disapearing again
"Of course it would only be open to you" I mumbled
We walked to Teruteru's dorm and opened his door and myself, Kyoko, Shuichi, and Byakuya entered Teruteru's room meanwhile Mikan stayed back at the scene of the crime to run some more tests on the body to see if there was anything else there besides what we already knew.
"So obviously this murder was planned, but maybe they panicked because they killed Teruteru and not Ryoma" I offered
"Doubt it, they probably didn't care who got killed they just figured Ryoma was the easiest" Byakuya mused
"Then why was the scene sloppier than say a clean planned murder" I questioned
"Maybe they got cold feet, or maybe they heard you and Ryoma coming and had to hurry" Shuichi guessed
"No Ryoma or Ichiro would have seen them" Kyoko mused as they searched Teruteru's room
"Well if I had to guess, it would be because they knew Ryoma was coming and had to hurry because the note said to be there at one o'clock but we got there at around one fifteen, it's possible Teruteru showed up for whatever reason and got killed instead of Ryoma, so the killer had to move quickly so they didn't get caught"
"Hmm that's probably the most likely scenario, but we still don't know why Teruteru was out and about at one o'clock" Kyoko mused
After searching his room, we came up with pretty much nothing, Kyoko did find a small journal that looked like it had a page torn out of it Truth Bullet, so Kyoko took it back to her room to see if she could decipher what was written on it. The rest of us still continued to go through his room. We found his one gift that consisted of a box full of recipes labeled Mom's Best Hits. We assumed that he learned how to cook from his mom and that Monokuma didn't expect him to last long because of the letter we recieved explaing why each person got a certain amount of gifts and sadly it was true in this case.
We parted ways, and after about fifteen minutes of just wandering I decided to be stupid and go to Kyoko's room to see what she found. I didn't think this was smart because I get the sense she isn't the most talkative or welcoming person and I don't think she likes me at all. but I felt I needed to start establishing bonds with people and I felt that establishing one with Kyoko would be a good thing for me and it may save me later down the road. I found her dorm room and took a deep breath and knocked on her door. It took a minute but eventually she opened the door and looked up at me.
"Can I help you" She asked
"Yah kinda, I wanted to know if you found out what was written on that paper?" I questioned
"If you must know it read that Ryoma should go to the dining hall at one o'clock at night" Truth Bullet
"Hmm interesting, could we discuss this inside your room or am supposed to just going to keep standing here" I asked
"I guess you can come in but if you waste my time I will immediately kick you out"
"Yeesh that seems a little harsh"
"So what do you need to say"
"I just want to hear you opinion on this, is it possible for Teruteru to be the person who was going to kill Ryoma but someone killed him instead, what if it's not Teruteru's reason for being up at night we need to question but someone else's, the culprit" Truth Bullet
"That is very reasonable, but that does put you and Ryoma back under suspicion because you guys knew what time he would be there" Kyoko mused Truth Bullet
"I guess, I would also like to inform you that the knife that was in Teruteru's body was missing the night before, Taka, Naegi, Teruteru, and myself all noticed this before we left the dinner. But most likely Teruteru had it, if my theory is correct. The question is who got the knife and stabbed Teruteru"
"That is a valid question, hopefully the allibies come in handy but since this murder happened at night I doubt we will have any substantial allibies"
Dining Hall 2:52 PM Ryoko's POV
"So sense almost everyone is here let's start gathering allibies shall we"
"I guess I'll start, myself and Ichiro met at around 1:15, I saw him leave his room before we met up. We were meeting to head to the dining hall due to me getting a letter from an admirer, presumably the culprit"
"Why did you guys want to meet at 1:15" Twogami asked
"Ichiro suggested it, he said we could get a jump on the possible killer"
"Hmm, That does raise suspicions against Ichiro because he would know what time you would be out of your room" Twogami suggested
"No I doubt it, according to this monopod thing it says Teruteru was killed at one o two AM, Ichiro wouldn't have a lot of time to clean up, and besides the water doesn't work at night anyways, it seems Monokuma neglected to tell us that" Sayaka mused
"Anyway I doubt it was Ichiro, he is to caring no matter how cynical he may act some times" Ryoko offered
"I think that is a reasonable alibi for both of them, although not solid it is reasonable to believe that neither of them would have time to cleanup and still meet at the agreed time" Rantaro mentioned
"I'll just assume that everyone was either asleep or awake in their rooms because as of right now Kirumi, Ryoma, and Ichiro are the only ones that have solid allibies" Truth Bullet Ryoko guessed
"Actually, even though I hate to admit it, Sakura and I stayed in the same room together because I was having a really bad nervous breakdown before bed" Truth Bullet Aoi mentioned
"Ooh did anything happen in there" Yamada perved
"No Yamada, are you really that perverted" Aoi asked
"No, I'm only interested in the three D variety"
"Yamada shut up we all know you were jerkin it in your bed room" Iruma scoffed
"Excuse me, miss Iruma what does jerk it mean" Gonta asked
"Well ya see..."
"Iruma not now, Gonta someone will tell you later let's get back on track. Does anyone have any other allibies because I say we get some sleep before the trial so we are all well rested" Ryoko said
No one else had anything to say so everyone headed back to their rooms to get some shut eye
About three and a half hours later in Makoto's Dorm 7:00 AM Makoto's POV
I was looking over the monokuma file when Monokuma made his moring announcement,
"It is seven o'clock everyone you have three hours and twenty minutes left to investigate the crime, so get to steppin"
It had basic information on it, like Time of deatha and discovery as well as fatal wound and other wounds and where he died as well as what was the fatal injury, The format looked something like this.
Victim:Teruteru Hanamura
Estimated Time of Death: 1:02
Time of Discovery: 1:19
Wounds: Stab wound in chest as well as small bruises on wrists
Fatal Wound: The stab wound went through his heart ultimately killing him
It wasn't anything special it just gave us some basic information on the murder. I decided to leave to the laundromat figuring no one has been there yet and figured if anyone was going to wash their cloths it would be there. I walked there and found no one there but I did find some drops of bleach on the floor as well as an open bottle of it in the closet. Truth Bullet I then left to the incineration room to find the machine left on as well Truth Bullet. This was probably the murderer's doing, they really needed to get rid of some evidence but all they did was leave more evidence even though it doesn't really help. I decided to leave and get some breakfast because honestly I felt that I was as prepared as I'll be for this because there really isn't much to go on in this case. Doing that searching took up about a half an hour of time so we had two and a half hours left until go time. When I walked through the door I was met with litterally everyone gathered at one table.
"Uh did I miss something?" I asked
"Oh Naegi hello, we were wondering where you were" Twogami asked
"Just gathering more evidence"
"Oh that's good, right now we were going over allibies, we currently we have three solid allibies and two circumstantial. By chance do you have one?"
"Sorry no I was sleeping when the announcement went off"
"I figured as much, ok does anyone have any sort of allaby they would like to share with the group"
"I was with Kirumi for most of night last night, Kirumi can back me up on that" Hiyoko said
"That is true she was, but I did doze off a little but when the announcement came she was still there" Kirumi continued Truth Bullet
"By chance could you guess how long you dozed off for" Ryoko asked
"Oh for about thirty minutes proabably"
"It's an ok alibi but by no means airtight sadly" Shuichi mused
"Wait why, I was with her the whole time" Hiyoko whined
"It's because she can't confirm that she was with you the whole time because she fell asleep for a period of time so you aren't accounted for during that time period which was also the period of time Teruteru died" Shuichi said
Hiyoko mumbled some words that I couldn't here but I doubt they were kid friendly.
"So does anyone else have anything" Twogami asked
"Actually Akane and I spent most of last night training together" Tenko said
"How long were you guys together" Kyoto asked
"Till about one o'clock I would say then I left, I probably shouldn't have withheld this for so long but I did here some yelling and screaming from want sounded like a girl and a boy and I'm guessing the boy was Teruteru" Truth Bullet Tenko revealed
"Wow thank you Tenko, if your right then that significantly lowers our suspect count dramatically" Shuichi thanked
Tenko then mumbled something about being a degenerate and happy that the other males were innocent and basically everything else she has said in our time in the school.
"That is also a decent alibi based off the Ichiro and Ryoma argument of both would be unable to cleanup in time before they meet each other so I believe Tenko would also not have been able to clean up" Kyoko mused
"So that brings us to about twenty suspects" I mused Truth Bullet
"So does anyone else have anything to say, because if not I believe that we should all continue our own investigations so we can all have an understanding of what is going on with the trial" Twogami announced
"AGREED CLASSMATE" Taka yelled
Everyone stood around looking at each other for a few seconds then people started leaving the Dining Hall and either going back to their dorms to get more sleep or continuing their own investigation.
8:20 PM Unknown Room Mastermind POV
"So what do you think of your guys siblings performances so far"
"I think my sister is doing alright, she hasn't really done anything to get her killed, and I don't know when she will snap"
"And what about you * I know you think your brother is doing well"
"Yah but I think everyone considers him an easy target but if he dies the more despair am I right girls"
"Oh I forgot one of our friends is going to be here and join us in a couple days, but that is a conversation for another time, gotta keep the veiwers on their toes don't we"
"Of course * that's what makes the ratings go up"
"Now as you all know a trial is coming up so I hope you all are ready because this trail definitely isn't going to be easy unless some of them realize what the hell each of them are wearing on their feet haha, its trial time everyone"
Ichiro's Dorm 9:20 AM Ichiro's POV
"Attention everyone it's trial time get ready for an epic battle between classmates as you guys try to find the guilt party, All of you meet at the staircase, and get on the now opened elevator for your ride down to the trial room"
Well here we go, this is make it or break it time for everyone. I haven't been this nervous since my first championship game. Ah good times but I've got to focus on the present not the past.
I got up and out of bed and opened my door to see the others leave their rooms also for the staircase. I walked there and waited for everyone to join us. We were eventually just waiting on Kyoko who showed about five or so minutes after everyone else probably doing some last minute investigating if I had to guess. I looked around at everyone and every expression imaginable, angry, sad, stoic, calm, scared, and despair. It wasn't a pretty sight but I knew that if I broke down like some here that I would be looked upon as a coward instead of a brave ultimate. The giant elevator lurched suddenly and then slowly descended to what I assumed was the trial room. I decided it best to move to the corner and get focused because I knew we would be here for a while and I knew the stakes were high. I leaned against the wall as we descended farther down below the school.
Then the doors opened and we all walked out to a massive trial room with fifty different podiums, I guess the games have begun.
A/N Ok so I surprisingly got his chapter out really quick but anyways the trial will be written as if it's a script so no Ichiro mused or I said it's just how you would right a script. Also Vote on that poll and you have five votes because of cast size and as the size shrinks so will the amount of votes and Teruteru has been deleted off the poll so if you voted for Teruteru I would vote again. Anyway the test will be next chapter and it's time to see if I can make a good trial as always leave your reveiws and I'm interested to see who you guys think did it I feel I made it a tad obvious to any who paid attention these last couple chapters but who knows. And I know this chapter is shorter than some recent ones but for the evidence and what not there wasn't much that I needed to reveal or investigate because there is one floor and the murder was "rushed" according to Kyoko so there is that.
