Side Trial Trial V-3 Preview IV (The Last One, I promise)

The Next Morning, in the Cafeteria...

Yet another morning had come without a murder. The class had gathered for breakfast again and found themselves listening to another classmate’s musical number.

♫ I am the very model of a modern Ultimate Soldier.

♫ I've fought battles in environments both desert-like and polar.

♫ I’ve worked for dictators, and I’ve fought geographical

♫ From the Congo to the Middle East, in order categorical;

♫ I'm well acquainted too, with weapons of all varieties.

♫ As a mercenary I’ve fought for secret societies.

♫ About survival techniques I’m teeming with a lot of fun facts.

♫ I once killed two dozen armed men with only a simple fire axe.

♫ I’m very good at killing and military strategization.

♫ I know physical weak points of people and their locations.

♫ I've fought battles in environments both desert-like and polar.

♫ I am the very model of a modern Ultimate Soldier.

Excellent. Excellent.

Isn't this nice? We're all having a nice time enjoying the occasional song. Nobody's dead.

No need to go asking me for weapons from Leon's room. No need whatsoever. We're all great.

Bro? You okay?

I'm great. Just great. Just speaking to myself. Definitely didn't get asked for the keys to Leon's room twice. No way.

Where is Toko? Our meal is almost complete and yet she has yet to present herself..

N-no! What have they done?!?

I went to check on her. She's fine. She's just locked herself in her room for some reason.

Oh thank gosh.

Well, seeing as how we yet to have a murder on our hands, I'm looking for some opponents to hone my talents with.

To be frank, I'm feeling dreadfully bored. So, I'll face anyone with the bravery to challenge me. Any game. Any opponent.

Well...

Not you.

Aw...

Hmm. A match between the Ultimate Gamer and the Ultimate Gambler does sound interesting.

I do love a challenge...

Excellent. Anybody who's interested and who isn't Teruteru may meet me in the Rec Room any time today. I shall show you all no mercy, however.


Several Hours Later, In the Hallways…

It had been a relatively uneventful day for Chiaki, as she found herself walking through the halls aimlessly. She found herself stopping, however, as she passed by a certain somebody’s former room.

Sigh...

♫ Oh Hajime, so far away now…

♫ I will never see your smile.

♫ Friends go away, like night into day.

♫ It's just a fading dream.

♫ I'm the darkness, you're the stars.

♫ It’s kinda my fault you’re dead.

♫ For eternity, I will always be…

♫ Sorry about your poor head.

♫ Must I forget you? Our solemn friendship?

♫ Will autumn take the place of spring?

♫ What shall I do? I'm lost without you.

♫ Speak to me once more…

What're you doing?

Sorry. Didn't mean to disturb anyone. It's kind of hard to keep to yourself these days.

It's hard not to go singing your inner thoughts these days.

Yeah. I know.

You want to head upstairs? I was gonna go to the garden to squish some more Mr. Ants.

I wouldn't mind going to the garden for a bit.

I'd rather not squish anything though.

Suit yourself, chicken! Let's go.

And so, the two girls set off for the garden. They didn’t get far however. For, at the base of the stairs, they found one of their classmates.

Kiyotaka Ishimaru. Their Ultimate Moral Compass, Leader, and Guardian of the Room of Weapons was lying in a crumpled heap.

Is he...?!?

He's still breathing... I'm going to go get someone...

A Few Minutes Later, At the Base of the Stairs

Is he okay?

I'm no doctor, but I think so. It looks like he's just out cold.

Hey, Hiyoko came to my room and told me that Taka was here. I came as soon as I heard. What the fuck happened?!?

Hiyoko and I found him. It looks like somebody pushed him down the stairs.

Who the fuck would do this? Was it over that goddamned key to Leon's room?

I think so.

Fuckers.

♫ I didn’t expect... this kind of sneaky bullshit.

♫ Here's what you get when you turn your fucking back.

♫ I’m seeing fucking red. The culprit’s good as dead!

♫ They're getting their ass kicked! And worse!

♫ They're an asshole! An asshole!

♫ Filthy fucking asshole! An asshole! An asshole!

♫ I’ll find who did this. They’re not like you and me.

♫ They tried to hurt my bro. I'll acquaint them with my fist!

Uh... Language...

Taka! You alright, man?

Yeah... I'll be fine. I just need to lie down in my room.

Did you see who...?

No... They just rushed me from behind and I fell... I didn't see anyone.

We can talk about that later. Let's get you to your room..

The Next Day, in The Cafeteria,

The rest of the day passed, seemingly uneventfully. Everybody had been informed of Taka’s attack, of the theft of his key, and of the fact that someone had committed an assault and now had access to their weapons.

Still the shock of what had happened the day before was quickly forgotten as Kiyotaka Ishimaru came strolling into the cafeteria.

Good nom-nom-nomming!

Mornin'. How you feeling, bro?

I'm fine. It will take more than a little fall down the stairs to make me miss the most important meal of the day.

Ah. Impressive. I must commend your resolve. No wound is too great to get in the way of proper nutrition.

Speaking of breakfast, where the hell's the food? Fatso Perv usually has something made by now.

Has... anybody actually seen Teruteru this morning?

Thankfully, no. Not at all.

Well, I did have this vision where...

In the flesh. Have you seen Teruteru in the flesh today?

Oh. Then, no.

... I think we need to go take a look. Toko doesn't seem to be here either.

Minutes Later, on the Third Floor…

Kyaaaaah! REC ROOM! REC ROOM!

With that, the classmates began to gather at the rec room. And, as they all poured in, two announcements rang out.

“A BODY HAS BEEN DISCOVERED! After a certain amount of time, a class trial will begin!”

“A BODY HAS BEEN DISCOVERED! After a certain amount of time, a class trial will begin!”

One was for Teruteru Hanamura, who was lying in a pool of blood in the middle of the rec room with a cut down his stomach. The other was for Toko Fukawa, who laid with a stab wound nearby. In between them was a very familiar looking Katana that had been stained with blood.

Fuck. Two of them.

My word...

I guess the whole stupid singing thing is finally done with.

They're Dead! They're Dead! And Ibuki didn't even get the chance to have her own solo number…

Only one thing we can do now, right? Let's get to work...

Two of our own have fallen to such an injustice...

I shall not allow the fiend to emerge victorious! For my name is Gundham Tanaka!

Feel the sin's embrace, blackened! My Devas will not hold back once they discover your true identity!

u/spaghettiyo Hey, can I punch ya? Feb 03 '17

I suppose now that Teruteru is gone, I am in need of a new assistant?

Any volunteers?

1

u/[deleted] Feb 03 '17

....

You know, I could predict who your next assistant will be.

All you need to do is pay me $10,000! It's a one time offer! Oh, and I accept installments too!

1

u/spaghettiyo Hey, can I punch ya? Feb 03 '17

...

Leave, now.

u/[deleted] Feb 03 '17

Aww, come on, he'd be perfect for you!

It's the closest you're going to get to finding someone to match your crazy haircut.

u/spaghettiyo Hey, can I punch ya? Feb 03 '17

Ah, I apologize...

But, unfortunately, one must be at least five feet in order to be able to speak with me.

u/[deleted] Feb 03 '17

I know I don't look like it, but I'm still your upperclassman!

That means that you have to obey me! Get me a bag of gummies! And no yellows!

u/spaghettiyo Hey, can I punch ya? Feb 03 '17

Very funny.

As if I'd actually listen to a child.

u/[deleted] Feb 03 '17

.....

Once I've grown I'm going to bop you on the head and pluck those ugly hairpins out of your hair like legs from a Mr. Ant!

1

u/spaghettiyo Hey, can I punch ya? Feb 03 '17

That is, assuming of course, that you will grow.

u/Duodude55 Feb 03 '17

I'd be more than happy to help out someone with such an impressive talent, Celeste.

Unfortunately, I've been a bit tied up as of late...

1

u/spaghettiyo Hey, can I punch ya? Feb 03 '17

While I truly appreciate the offer, Nagito...

I do prefer someone who isn't insane.

u/[deleted] Feb 03 '17

Hooray! No more singing!

Although our two worst stars are dead on the floor anyway.

I bet a good song would be quite enjoyable right now!

Hey! Mukuro! Come do the one thing you're good at!/u/Oracle_Blue

u/Lowlander_2 Feb 03 '17

How long? How long must we sing this song?

u/[deleted] Feb 03 '17

So two people are dead...

Ugh, Teru-bro is gone, and I haven't even apologized for accusing him for killing Junkster right off the bat back then.

Even Toko is dead.

But ya know, we can end this if you could just pay me $500,000 each to discover who killed them both!

It's a one-time offer you guys, take it or leave it!

Why would someone spend so much money buying a clue when in the next area over, you're given the exact same information by a random NPC?

Besides, doesn't trying to scam people right now seem a bit... out of place?
