Kane: T-this guy is insane..
Imi: So just what do you want us to prove?
Kane: Wait, we're seriously going along with this!?
Nachio: Of course, it should be fine since you've got nothing to hide right?
Kane: Well yeah, but..
Nachio: Come on, come on! It'll be fun!
Azuse: Hey, wait! Don't just cut us out of this!
Asta: Yeah, it's a team effort!
Nachio: Says who?
Asta: Huh?
Nachio: Jeez, always so positive.
Nachio: This is life or death, Asta! A free for all.
Ridaa: I have to agree with Asta.
Ridaa: It's better if we work together on this.
Aku: Aww, you could warm a dead man's heart.
Taniri: *Ahem* Back to the topic at hand...
Taniri: Imi and Kane, I suspect that one of you is the killer.
Ruriki: How bold!
Kane: Don't try and frame us!
Nawari: I'm sorry, but you two are the most suspicious.
Rio: True however, neither of them seem strong enough to kill someone like *that*!
Rio: No offence..hehe.
Imi: Uh, none taken..?
Azuse: My pick's on Taniri.
Nawari: Why so?
Azuse: I mean.. just look at him!
Rio: Ohh, I see your point.
Nachio: Oh!
Azuse: What now?
Nachio: Taniri, you mentioned something about 'hands' right?
Taniri: Correct. What about it?
Ruriki: What are you on about now?
Nachio: Hey, Mononeko!
Mononeko: I'm all ears~!
Nachio: Is it okay if I move around a bit?
Mononeko: Hmmm, are you attempting murder?
Nachio: Yes or no.
Mononeko: Sure, sure. Just make it quick!
Ridaa: What are you planning?
Nachio: Ah. Can everyone hold out their hands, please?
-Everyone holds out their hands-
Nawari: Can you please explain?
Nachio: Yeah yeah, I'm getting there.
Nachio: Rio, you said Imi and Kane didn't appear to have the strength to kill someone in such a way.
Rio: Yup.
Nachio: So let's say, hypothetically one of them did kill Samuela.
Nachio: Killing someone like that would surely leave some interesting marks on their hands.
Azuse: I think I know where you're going with this.
Ruriki: Ruriki doesn't! Please explain!
Aku: After killing Samuela, the killer would have some marks on their hand if they weren't strong enough to swing forward.
Asta: Assuming that's what they did...
Aku: It can't be Taniri cuz' his hands are perfectly fine!
Kane: So that leaves...
Imi: Kane, Asta, Rio, and myself.
-Nachio had moved around to check everyone's hands-
Nachio: Oh, Kane I almost forgot.
Kane: Hm?
Nachio: Remember that locked door we found? Do you still have the key to that door?
Kane: I think so, but why bring it up now?
-Nachio pull a box out of his pocket-
Nachio: More importantly...
Nachio: Does this belong to anyone?
-Everyone is silent-
Aku: Someone say somthing..
Azuse: It's not mine.
Ruriki: Nope!
Taniri: A toy? No way.
Nawari: Don't think so..
Rio: No.
Ridaa: Not a chance.
Asta: Coincidently, no.
Nachio: Is it yours, Kane?
Kane: H-huh? No!
Nachio: I know. The owner's name is written on the box.
Azuse: Then what was the point of asking!?
Nachio: To prove that someone still hasn't raised their hands yet. Assuming fro this box, they're right handed.
Nachio: Which would explain the reason why it's slightly turned.
Nachio: Hey Kane, can I have that key now?
Kane:...
Kane: It's not in here!
Nachio: Thought so, because there's a key in here. Coincidently, the same key that opened that door.
Taniri: Could you just tell us who it is already?!
Nachio: Why would I do that? We just got to the fun part!
Nachio: Come on, there's only one person who could've done this..
-Everyone was silent-
Azuse: Wait then it's Imi!
Ruriki: Imi?
Asta: His right hand hasn't been raised...
Nawari: Plus, Imi and Kane are best buds. He could of easily stolen the key from Kane.
Ruriki: Not only that, but Kane could also be an assistant!
Aku: That settles it, Imi killed Samuela and got Kane to help him.
Nachio: Well, you two? Got anything to say?
Kane: That's not true! It's not-
Imi: I'm guilty.
Kane: Wha- Imi!
Imi: There's no point. I've been caught.
Kane: But... I..
Mononeko: Such a sad, sad story! Two best friends have to part for.. well ever! Pupupupu!
Kane: That's not funny!
Mononeko: Said the crying boy!
Imi: Sorry everyone.. Mononeko, let's get this over with.
Mononeko: Right, let's give this everything we've got. It's punishment time!!!
Trial Dismissed
Everyone had gone back to their rooms to process the earlier events. Some falling asleep immediately and others staying up. Nachio was currently getting read for bed.
"Wasn't that something?"
Nachio just blinked at it- ah him.
"You know I hated that as much as you did. But, you're doing better!"
Nachio sighed in disbeilef.
"I may be getting better but the situation is getting worse. The number of us is gradually decreasing..."
He couldn't help but worry about his friends.
STUDENTS REMAINING: 10
(Yes I know it's late but I wrote this in the evening and had to hit the hay. Also I changed the concept a bit.)
