Class Trial In Session
All Rise!
"Now then allow me to start this off with a quick explanation of the class trial!" Monokuma started. "During this time you will present your evidence and argue over who you believe the killer is and vote for whodunit! If the majority vote is correct then only the blackened will be punished. However if the majority is incorrect then I will punish everyone besides the blackened and they will get to graduate and leave to the outside world scot free." Monokuma explained.
"But that won't happen!" Shana shouted. "We're gonna find Sienna's killer and make them pay for what they did!"
"And how do you intend to find them? Are you gonna threaten everyone until they confess?" Melinda yawned at her.
Shana's eyes glared at her. "If that's what it takes!"
Monokuma suddenly giggled. "I love seeing you guys argue but unfortunately I won't allow any physical fighting to take place. You must fight each other with your words."
"If that's the case then can we discuss something that will be relevant to the case." Ollie spoke up.
"What is it?" Paul asked her.
"Well there was something I was very confused about. Has everyone read their Monokuma File?" Ollie asked us.
"I did." Brenda nodded.
Damian chimed in next. "Of course."
Marcel was next. "I... didn't know how to turn mine on."
Willie looked stunned. "What? Really?"
Paul sighed. "Just ignore him. So Ollie why bring this up?"
"Well I couldn't help but feel like something was off. Or more accurately that something is missing." Ollie stated.
'Something is missing from the Monokuma File. I think I know what that is.' I thought before looking over to her.
"You're referring to the time of death correct?" I asked.
"Yes. As many of you should recall when it came to Helen's and Jayden's deaths they had a time of death or at least a very close estimate but why that information not found anywhere this time?" Ollie questioned.
Tommy hummed thoughtfully. "I think Monokuma forgot to add that."
Monokuma glared at him and threw his arms up. "I didn't forget any information that needed to be added to the file. I gave you all what I could. Or at least what I wanted to. Besides if you really think about it you can figure it out."
"Then let's talk about that. When was the time when Sienna was murdered? If I were to guess my assumption would be last night because..." I began speaking before I heard someone stop me.
"You seem eager to begin this conversation." Melinda spoke up smiling with her eyes closed. "Are you by chance trying to take the lead like in the first class trial so you can lead us to a false conclusion?"
"W-What?" I was a bit flabbergasted by that.
"She's saying that you might be the killer." Paul deadpanned.
"Kai is the killer?" Brenda asked in shock.
"No way! Kai is not underhanded like you are!" Luca shouted.
"Quiet children. Let the adults speak." Paul taunted the others.
"We're all the same age! Don't talk like your above us!" Mikayla growled.
Melinda chuckled. "Well then let's get debating shall we."

Loaded Truth Bullets: Sienna's Missing Key, Pool Rules, and Damian's Account
"I bet you killed Sienna, Kai! You're far too eager to start things off." Melinda chuckled.
"Where's your proof that Kai is the killer? Are you accusing him because he was the first one to speak up his mind?" Luca questioned her.
"But I was the one who started things up." Ollie reminded us.
"Then you're both suspicious!" Shana hollered.
Melinda chuckled lightly. "No. I just mean that there could be plenty of time's he could have killed her. Like this morning for example."
Truth Bullet Fired: Damian's Account
"YOU'VE GOT THAT WRONG!"
Counter!
"No it would be impossible for me to have killed her this morning! I have an alibi!" I retorted at Melinda.
She simply huffed at me. "Really? That's your excuse? Seriously if your going to lie, try to think of something more original."
"It's not a lie. He's telling the truth." Luca chimed in. "I overheard him talking to Damian in the fitness room during the investigation."
Damian continued talking. "...I just got up a bit late and went to go get breakfast. That was about the time I met up with Willie. He looked a tad sweaty and I asked him why. He told me he was working out at 6 this morning and finished just before we met up in the kitchen. That was we ran into you. Or to be more precise you literally ran into us."
"Damian and Willie had been with each other when everyone was eating breakfast. And Kai was with them. Damian, what time did you meet up with Willie?" Luca asked.
Damian tapped a finger against his chin thoughtfully. "Well I got up a little after the morning announcement. So... maybe it was around 7:15? Then we made our way to the cafeteria and grabbed breakfast and Kai was already there and done eating. He accidentally tripped and we all collided, making a mess of ourselves. Kai stuck around as we talked and remade our breakfast. He left soon after and maybe another ten minutes went by before the body discovery announcement played."
"Do you think I would have been able to kill her in such a small amount of time? Besides there's something else that may prove any one of us could be the killer." I stated.
"I'll hack my way into your mind!" Paul exclaimed.
"You are correct. There is something else that should be addressed. The fact that the killer very well could be Willie." Paul calmly replied.
"What? Why him?" I looked at him confused.
"Seriously? These fools just gave something vital away and you overlooked it? Then allow me to enlighten you." Paul huffed at me. "Now then Kai will you be able to defend this fool?"
Rebuttal Showdown!

Paul began explaining. "If we are to progress we need to examine all possible culprits. Kai is ==/== clean but Willie is still suspicious. After all the three of you were not together the entire morning. As long as someone can defend seeing you and Damian leaving your dorms around the time ==/== of the announcement then the only one left without an alibi is Willie."
"No just because we weren't with him all this morning doesn't mean he's the only one suspicious." I refuted.
"That may be but he is the most suspicious. Willie confessed ==/== to Damian about working out this morning at 6 and was slightly wet from sweat. Don't you think that what was on him wasn't sweat at all? Perhaps it was water that splashed him when he threw Sienna's ==/== body in the pool!
Truth Blade Used: Status of Sienna's Body
"I'LL CUT YOUR WORDS DOWN TO SIZE!"
Counter!
"No that's very unlikely the case and Mikayla can back me up on this." I told him.
"Really? You think I'm going to listen to that blubbery child?" Paul asked me with aggression.
"You have to. After all she investigated her body and you didn't because of the restrictions you put on each other." I reminded him.
Paul growled as he looked to Mikayla. "Well then speak woman."
Mikayla glared at him. "This will answer your question as well as the question before on when Sienna died. When I looked at her body it had shown signs of being in the pool for many hours. From the time Willie woke up at 6 to the time we discovered her body at around 7:30, the time frame would be about an hour and a half but her body showed that she was definitely in the pool much longer than that with how tender her skin was and how much water was soaked in. Which means Willie can't be the culprit based on that."
"Hmm. I see. I guess I was mistaken for once." Paul shrugged.
"Don't you dare think for a moment I'll forgive ya for accusin' me!" Willie shouted.
Paul turned his head from the Ultimate Cowboy. "I don't care."
Willie turned red-faced in anger quickly. "Why you dirty, lily-livered varmint! I outta hogtie you up for good!"
"I hate admitting this but it needs to be said to make this clear. Even though we have alibis for this morning those don't mean anything." I admitted.
Willie looked at me in horror. "Wait what? But you just defended me. Are you backstabbin' me already?"
"No I'm not. I'm just saying that any alibi for this morning can't be taken into account for one reason." I told him.
"And what reason is that?" Damian asked me.
"It's just as Mikayla said. If Sienna's body had been in the pool longer than an hour and a half then that would be way before Willie got up at 6." I retold everyone before continuing. "Let's not forget we all saw Sienna alive a little bit before the nighttime announcement played."
"Which would mean she was killed during nighttime. Sometime after it started and before 6 this morning." Luca finished my thought.
I nodded to him. "That's right. And unless anyone can say they were with someone else last night then that means everyone doesn't have an alibi they can use."
"That does include you right?" Melinda asked with a cheesy grin on her face. I looked away from her which made her coo. "Oh I'm right. You just incriminated yourself along with everyone else. How noble."
"Enough. We're not making much progress if we keep this going." Brenda said with a stern face.
"I agree. How about we change our topic to what means was used to kill Sienna? We'll be able to continue further in the class trial if we do so." Ollie suggested.
"Fine. Then let's..." Paul was agreeing before Marcel jumped up and down like a jackrabbit.
"Oh! Oh! Oh! I bet I know!" Marcel cheered.
Paul's face turned dark as he blankly stared at the Ultimate Surfer. "Did I give you permission to speak?"
"But Ollie has been talking without permission and so shall I!" Marcel triumphantly hollered.
'Does Marcel really know what was used to kill Sienna? I somehow doubt it but might as well listen to what he's got to say.' I pondered.

"I've cracked this mystery wide open!" Marcel shouted.
"But you said you didn't know how to look at the Monokuma File. How can you know how she died if you didn't read that or investigate her body?" Tommy inquired him.
Marcel's chest puffed up in pride. "It's simple. All you need to know is where we found the body."
"That would obviously be the pool area you're referring to." Brenda stated.
"And what was it we saw when we first looked around the pool? Monokuma being electrocuted when he fell in the pool! The killer probably got hit by a wave of inspiration and killed Sienna last night in the same way!"
Truth Bullet Fired: Pool Rules
"YOU'VE GOT THAT WRONG!"
Counter!
"Sorry Marcel but that's very wrong." I said to him very forward.
"Huh? But how? She could have died by the conductors in the pool." Marcel tried arguing.
"No it's impossible. The pool rules even say so." I tapped on my camera and loaded up the picture I took of the pool rules for everyone to see.
1. No running allowed
2. No foods or sodas/drinks allowed
2a. However small snacks are allowed as long as no mess is left
3. No swimming during the daytime
4. If any of the following rules are broken by anyone they will be punished!
"The rules for the pool specify that swimming during the daytime is prohibited. However that doesn't mean we can't at nighttime and we already came to the conclusion that Sienna was killed during nighttime. Even if she was killed by the pool's conductors during daytime would that even mean there's a blackened?"
Shana blinked at me. "What does that mean? If someone dies then of course there's a blackened. What kind of dumb, retard question was that?"
"No it's not." Paul shocked everyone when he agreed with me. He then looked to Monokuma. "You know what he's talking about don't you?"
The demon bear laughed into his paws. "Puhuhu~ Yep! I sure do. Everyone please take another look at Rule 4 of the pool. It states that if any of the rules are broken that they will be punished!"
"And when he says punishment he means execution by his hands. So what Kai is trying to say that no matter how the rule is broken, if the person is killed by an execution, by Monokuma, then there isn't a blackened." Paul furthered the discussion.
"But what if someone did shove Sienna in and she died from the rules? Maybe someone took advantage of the rules to make it seem like they weren't the culprit." Brenda said thoughtfully.
"I doubt that would be the case. Regardless if it was done on purpose by Sienna or if she was forced into it, an execution is an execution that can only be done by Monokuma." I informed her.
"Good job Kai! Great deduction! I have to say that was most impressive! Yes even if someone attempts to use the rules to their advantage if the end result is an execution for breaking the rules then they died by the rule and not because someone forced them to. It's gray area I know but I gotta say I wasn't expecting the Ultimate Actor to pick up on something like that! Are you sure we shouldn't change you're title to the Ultimate Detective?" Monokuma cooed at me.
"..."
"So then we can clear things up by saying there's no way the pool had any part in the murder even though that was already decided when we said she was killed at nighttime." Damian concluded the topic.
I shook my head at him. "Actually no. It may not have been the direct cause of death but it still plays a huge role in this murder."
"That's true. After all that was where we found the body." Tommy added.
Brenda looked thoughtfully at the ground. "Then what was the purpose of leaving her body in the pool?"
"There are multiple reasons why. First of all it was to try to keep us from her body. If we couldn't reach it then we wouldn't be able to inspect her body." I told her before continuing. "Also it was to destroy major evidence.
"Huh? Destroy evidence?" Brenda asked in shock.
Mikayla nodded in agreement. "Yes. Because the body was left in the water for so long we can't get an estimate on what time she died at. But there's more to it. The pool's chlorine acted as a cleaner to wipe away any potential DNA that could have been found on the body. I did research on this in science class and found that chlorine can have major effects on our DNA."
"I don't know if the killer knew of that fact but if not then that was just an added bonus for them. The body was also placed in the pool to throw us off track to make us think Monokuma's rule had killed her." I added.
"Then if it wasn't the pool that killed her then what did?" Marcel asked.
"Maybe if you read the Monokuma File this whole topic wouldn't have been pointless!" Mikayla growled madly at him.
"Hey! Don't blame me! No one showed me how! Besides it wasn't all pointless." Marcel huffed at her.
"It may have been unnecessary but it is good to ensure everyone is on the right track and look over all possibilities." I told Mikayla.
"See? Even my boy Kai's got my back on this." Marcel cheered with glee.
Mikayla just snorted at him and looked away.
I looked at Mikayla with worry filling my body up. 'I understand Mikayla is upset especially since this class trial is on Sienna's murder but why is she being so aggressive? I've never seen her like this before.'
"Well Marcel, the Monokuma File stated that the cause of death was from choking." Luca informed him.
"Oh! I see. Then how did she choke? Did she eat something and it went down her air pipe?" Marcel asked.
"Nope! It wasn't! I actually have a theory on what killed lil' Ultimate Ice Dancer." Willie popped in loudly.
"Um... her title was the Ultimate Figure Skater genius." Shana deadpanned at him.
Willie shrugged that off. "Well anyway I think I know how this happened. So y'all need to listen up!"

Truth Bullets Loaded: Bloody Hand Towel, Snowflake Jacket, Plastic Shards, and Updated School Store
"I searched the school store and found something that could have choked Sienna. I found it in the school store!" Willie hurrahed.
"Really? What was it? A chain like Jayden used to lock the school store?" Brenda asked him.
"Nope. There weren't any chains in there." Willie answered her.
"What? That impossible! There were definitely chains in the school store. We even investigated the school store together." Tommy reminded Willie.
Willie nodded. "Yeah there was but not after the inventory was changed."
Truth Bullet Fired: Updated School Store
"I BELIEVE YOU!"
Consent!
"Willie is right about that. The school store doesn't have the chains anymore. In fact everything in there was updated recently." I told Tommy.
"The school store was... updated?" Tommy asked confused.
Paul also looked baffled. "Since when was that a thing?"
Monokuma coughed lightly as if he was trying to not attract attention but obviously failed to do so as all our eyes focused on him. "Um... that's my bad. You see I'm suppose to revise the inventory in there after every class trial. Because let's be honest you kids are not very creative at times when it comes to killing so I gotta provide you guys with new gear to help spice things up. Also if you always had the same items for every class trial then things would be so unoriginal like a movie based on a book." He then began panting fast as a blush appeared on his face. "But after witnessing not one but two victims got me so exhilarated... so heated... so excited... so... so... sooooooooo..."
He paused for a moment before his head drooped again. "So anyways I forgot to do that until around the time the second motive was unveiled."
Paul sneered. "Disgusting pig."
I deadpanned a bit from that. "A-Anyways that's why everything we've seen previously in the school store is gone and there's so many new things. Even the things we can't use for murder has changed like the snacks and collectibles in the vending machine."
Brenda suddenly perked up. "Did someone say there's something collectible around here? Do I have it yet?"
Tommy chuckled. "Spoken like a true Ultimate Collector."
"So then Willie, explain to us what was used to choke Sienna." Ollie requested.
Willie nodded. "Gotcha lil' lady. So as I was searchin' the school store for potential clues, I happen to find this hidden paper that was folded up on the back of the vending machine." He then touched his handbook screen as an image he most likely took was now displayed for us to see.
I looked over it to see the paper looked like a list. I saw different flavored cupcakes, pocketknives, lighters, and many other items listed and I knew exactly what it was. "This is a list for everything currently stocked in the school store, isn't it?"
Willie smiled to me. "I'd knew you'd catch on, partner. Now look at this here item on the list." He pointed up to the list that read "Leather Straps".
"It lists off not only the items in stock but how many each item has. I went over this list to see if everything was correct to see that one thing that could be used for killing was off. The brown leather straps we found in the glass case was suppose to have ten in stock but when I counted them there were only nine. Which means that one strap has vanished. Now take that one missing strap and add it to the cause of death and I bet we have our murder weapon!"
"Uh actually Willie, the strap isn't missing. Kai and I found it." Luca enlightened him.
The cowboy looked shocked. "What? You did? Where was it?"
Luca brought up the picture of the leather strap we took. "It was locked up in Sienna's room. We found it hidden in her jacket."
"You mean her snowflake one that she always wore?" Brenda asked before she raised a finger as if she thought of something. "Now that I think about it more clearly. Sienna didn't have her jacket on. All she had on her upper body was a tight-fitting tank top. But if that's the case how did that leather strap and her jacket get to her room? Because if I remember right she had her jacket on when she locked herself in the fitness room."
"That's true. So how did those things get in her room if it was locked?" Marcel questioned.
"I bet I know." I once again chimed in. "It's gotta be because the killer took Sienna's dorm key."
"They took her key?" Shana asked me.
"Yes. I'm sure of it because when Mikayla checked her person the only thing she had on her was her student handbook. And given the circumstances that happened yesterday I doubt Sienna would have left it behind on accident. The killer most likely took her key to gain access to her room. They then proceeded to hide evidence in there so we couldn't get to it." I theorized. "They most likely held onto the key to ensure no one would get in and find the clues. However they forgot Monokuma will unlock most doors that can have potential or will unlock doors if requested. If they had remembered that then I think they would have tried hiding the strap in a more complex spot than inside her jacket and lie it on the bed."
"Then that proves it! The only reason the leather strap was hidden in Sienna's jacket and locked in her room was because it was used to kill her!" Willie roared victoriously. "I did it! I was finally useful for a class trial! Now you lil' ladies don't have to worry about trying to help out anymore."
Ollie glared at him with dark eyes. "What's that suppose to mean?"
Shana suddenly cracked her knuckles. "Yeah? Just what are you implying Billy the Kid?"
"Was that suppose to be an insult?" Willie questioned Shana with a smirk on his face.
"Why you!" Shana shrieked at him only for Tommy to reach across and hold onto Shana's shoulder.
"Shana! Control yourself! We can't fight right now. Besides we should be thankful Willie and the others helped us discover the murder weapon." Tommy told her to try and calm her down.
My right arm wrapped around my midsection with my left arm propped up on it as my hand cupped my chin as I began thinking. 'It seems everyone agrees on what was used to kill Sienna. But my investigation shows otherwise.'
I breathed out a sigh as Brenda looked at me. "Kai? You okay?"
'I gotta tell them.' I thought to myself.

"So then let's go over the most likely events." Melinda began speaking. "The killer took the leather strap from the school store."
Paul spoke next. "Then during some point last night Sienna left the fitness room. Most likely to return to her dorm since sleeping anywhere else is prohibited."
"Then the culprit cut her off at some point and attacked!" Brenda added looking fierce as if she was monologuing.
"They probably waited outside the door to the fitness room and hid up against the wall so when Sienna came out, she wouldn't notice them immediately." Damian guessed.
Willie raised his fist in the air and shouted, "That's when the lily-livered snake took the leather strap and killed her!"
Truth Bullet Fired: Marked Pool Railing
"YOU'VE GOT THAT WRONG!"
Counter!
"Sorry guys. I hate to say it but that leather strap can't be the murder weapon." I announced.
"What? Why not?" Willie looked heartbroken that I just interjected him.
Paul glared at me. "You better not be making us rethink everything like you did with the first trial."
"But it's the truth. I can prove it. When me and Luca found the strap I wanted to do an experiment." I told them.
I silently nodded as he took the strap and wrapped it around my wrist before he began pulling on each end making the leather dig and rub into my skin. I won't lie it hurt. I don't think Luca realized how much pressure he was putting on it. I tried to suppress the pain but one particular tug sent a big jolt that made me instinctively jump with a moan as I bit my lip.
He noticed this and immediately stopped removing the strap off me. "Kai, I told you to tell me if I started hurting you." ... I noticed that my wrist had taken on a slight brown hue and I could feel that this would definitely bruise up sometime soon.
"This leather strap is definitely strong enough to not break if enough pressure is applied so it can be used to choke someone but it would leave residue behind." I declared.
"It would?" Marcel asked in surprise.
"This particular leather is quite rubbery and not legit so it rubs off pretty easily and leaves a mark. That's what happened when Luca did that to me." I lifted my wrist and showed everyone. "My skin is a bit darker here because of the strap and it bruised me a bit."
"Luca hurt you? Why was he so rough?" Damian questioned me.
Luca only looked away in shame but I interjected. "N-No. I asked him to and I was too stubborn to ask him to stop before it started bruising. Besides if he didn't then I wouldn't have learned of this truth. You see I know where the strap was used on originally."
"That would be around Sienna's neck! It was used to choke her after all." Melinda hollered.
"No it wasn't. It was used on the pool railing." I told her.
"Uh... the pool railing?" Brenda looked puzzled.
I loaded the picture. "See? The same brown marking on my wrist was found on the railing here. Though from this point of view it would look like rust so no one would notice right away but when I felt it it had a grimy feel to it. Just as the leather strap does. But that residue that came from the strap wasn't on Sienna's neck at all."
"My diagnosis is never wrong!" Mikayla exclaimed.
"I'm sorry Kai but you're wrong." Mikayla growled at me.
"H-Huh? Mikayla, what are you doing?" I asked, disturbed by her sudden outburst.
"If you can't see why your reasoning is wrong then I'll make you see." Mikayla's eyes seem to darken as I felt her words send chills down my spine.

"Did you think that maybe something happened to the mark on Sienna's neck? Remember that we found her ==/== body floating in the pool. She was in there for hours! It's possible the water washed ==/== the mark off!" Mikayla shouted.
"No just because the body was found in the water doesn't mean leaving her in there long enough would wash it off. It would need to be rinsed off by hand with how grimy it is." I fought back.
"Then maybe they used one of ==/== the showers in the locker room! Or maybe they kept her near the edge ==/== of the pool and washed it off with the water there! I can't prove that the mark was there that is true. But you can't prove that it wasn't there either! You have nothing to ==/== go off of!"

"I'LL CUT YOUR WORDS DOWN TO SIZE!"
Counter!
"Mikayla, you couldn't have forgotten already. There's no way you'd forget such a crucial detail when you did your autopsy on Sienna." I said to her.
Mikayla lifted Sienna's head carefully as she pointed to her neck. Me and Luca moved in for a closer look and we saw bruises on her neck. But taking a closer look at it I saw two lined bruises across her Adam's apple and a few more on the sides and back of her neck. "Are those finger impressions?"
Mikayla nodded. "This indicates she was choked just like the Monokuma File said. There are more bruises on her face and arms too so she might be swollen from being beaten up badly."
"There were very faded but specific bruises on her neck that you pointed out to us. Ones that looked like finger impressions." I reminded her and told everyone else.
"F-Finger impressions!" Shana stuttered in horror.
"That's right and if you look at my wrist right now..." I once again lifted my hand and displayed my injury to the others. "Does this bruising on me look like it was made by someone's fingers?"
Paul answered first. "No it doesn't. It looks like you have one big stripe on your wrist. Not multiple little ones."
"Then if the bruising I got from the strap and the bruising found on Sienna's neck aren't the same then that leaves only one conclusion." I heard Mikayla stifle a growl as her fists clenched themselves by her sides as she lightly trembled. I closed my eyes as I continued. "Sienna didn't get choked to death by the leather strap. She was choked by something else. The answer to that is also obvious now. The murder weapon was the killer's own hands."
When my eyes open, most everyone's faces were drained of color as they trembled in fear and fright.
"They used their hands? That's so cruel!" Damian shouted as I saw his eyes water up.
Luca looked down. "We also saw that there were more bruises on the sides of her neck and two big ones on her Adam's apple. judging from those we can determine where the killer was positioned when they choked Sienna."
I felt my heart ping in pain with every beat. It hurt to think about it but it needed to be answered. "The culprit was directly in front of her when they choked her. Sienna died... knowing the face of her killer."
"Ghh!" Mikayla gasped inwardly.
"If she were choked from behind then the two big impressions, in other words the thumbs, would have been on the back of her neck and the other eight would be on the front. But since that's not the case then that means what Kai said about their positioning is correct." Melinda chimed in before a hair-raising smile streaked across her face. "Which means that we found our culprit."
I felt my heart suddenly stop. "W-What?"
"Isn't it obvious now? It's Mikayla." She continued.
"W-What the hell? WHAT THE HELL?!" Willie screamed in horror.
Shana violently shook her head. "NO! That can't be right! Mikayla and Sienna loved each other like sisters! There's no way she could kill her!"
"But Mikayla just fought back against Kai about something she told him in the first place. That's too suspicious. Plus she's been high-strung ever since this class trial started. I bet it's because she's nothing more than the trembling wolf hiding in sheep's skin. Hiding her lies."
Brenda quickly hopped in. "I have to agree with Shana. Mikayla... killed Sienna? I simply can't believe that would ever happen!"
"Then allow us to enlighten you." Now Paul stepped in as he looked to Ollie. "Go ahead and tell them what happened last night."
I looked over at the tattooed girl. "O-Ollie?"
She had her eyes closed as she began speaking. "I was told not to mention what I witnessed until I was told. And honestly I didn't care about the order. I just never had a reason to bring it up until now. You see last night I didn't go directly to bed. I stayed up for a few hours in the rec room. I was working on new tattoo designs for quite some time. However I soon heard someone walking outside the room. At first I didn't think anything of it since the door was cracked open and I just thought I was being a bit paranoid but after about half an hour I heard footsteps again. This time I went over to the door to see who it was and..."
Suddenly Melinda interrupted her. "And it was Mikayla!"
Ollie looked at her confused. "What?"
"She was there too. After all Ollie told me everything." Paul added.
"..." We all looked at the Ultimate Veterinarian in shock as she simply stood there. No attempt to rebuttal, to interject, to argue, or fight back. She just stood their silent and unmoving as she looked away from us all.
"M-Mikayla?" Damian called out to her nervously.
I pondered over and over, trying to wrap my head around this unbelievable scene that unfolded before me. 'I-Is this really true? Could Mikayla really have done it? Was Sienna murdered by Mikayla's own hands?'
Class Trial Intermission
Wow! I can't believe how amazing this turned out! I'm even shocked at how well thought out and smoothly I have been able to put this class trial altogether. Well that's what I think but that might not be what you think. Or maybe it is? If I wanna know then let me know what you thought of the first portion of the trial and what you think will be the overall outcome. I'm so curious on your thoughts and I can't wait to get the second part of the class trial written! So until that time comes I'll see you when that happens... if it happens... Puhuhuhu~
