//------------------------------// // Class Trial 2: Chapter 4 // Story: Dangan RomPonya // by Serenade-Stereo //------------------------------// "Wild Beast...you're the jackass that killed Moonlight!" "W-w-w-w-w-WHAT?!" He stuttered, startled by Serenade's accusation "That name on the centre tank, it says 'Wild'!" "B-but, Mr Stereo! It's a capital 'M' on the tank!" Orion doubts his claim "No, it can't be an 'M', none of our names start with an M, which means the letter that it actually is...is a 'W'" "G-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g" Wild sounds out "What is he saying?" Punch puts her hands on her hips "FOR CELESTIA'S SAKE NO!!!!!!" He gave an outburst "M-M-M-ME?! THE CULPRIT?! NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!!!" "Don't try to deny it! Lock saw you leave the aquarium right after the murder!" "HAHAHAHAHA!" He let out an insane laugh "I believe you are mistaken, Serenade, Lock's word alone can't prove anything! I want evidence that I was in the aquarium! For all you know, he could have killed Moonlight and wrote my name on the tank to frame me!" "H-hey! I did no such thing!" "SHUT IT, MUTE!" Wild retorted "M-mute?!" And so begins...the downfall of another Non-Stop Debate Evidence Bullets -Newspaper Article -Secret of the Despair Nightmares -Hammer's Testimony -Globe -Vent Wild- I ain't the killer! Zoom- But the question is, can you actually prove it? Nimbus- without sufficient evidence, you cannot be called 'innocent' Wild- Well the same goes for all of you! Beau- oh yes, throwing insults at us is totally going to make us believe You didn't kill Moonlight Wild- How could I kill her...If I didn't even enter the fucking aquarium?! You got that wrong! "No, you did go into the aquarium, both Lock and Hammer saw you!" "LIES, LIES, LIES, LIES!" "Naw man, I'm sure I saw you go in there" Hammer said "Well your a fucking retard then! I never went in there!" "This...is a hidden side that I would not expect from you, Wild" Samurai looks directly at Wild "Zip it! Or I swear I'll beat the shit outta you!" "Is that a challenge?" Samurai reached back for his practice sword "Easy guys" Hammer interrupted the two. "W-well....what about Zoom?! Did you ever consider her as the culprit?!" "W-what?!" Zoom stuttered out "Why would Zoom kill Moonlight? They were best friends!" Serenade argued "Well who the fuck knows why people kill?! Maybe she was the killer in her Despair Nightmare or some shit like that!" I know Zoom isn't the culprit...I just have to disprove that theory Non-Stop Debate Evidence bullets -Newspaper Article -The secret of the Despair Nightmares -Hammer's testimony Zoom- Don't try and pin this on me! I'm not the culprit! Wild- Bull! You must have killed her! Zoom- Why is that?! Wild- You must have had some motive! You got that wrong! "Actually there's no way Zoom would want to kill Moonlight, after all, they were working on that newspaper together" "Exactly! Don't go around accusing me with no basis, it just makes you look more like the culprit!" Zoom spat at Wild "N...nrg..." "So now we come full circle, and in this case, back to Wild" Orion says "Care to elaborate on why you are not the culprit?" "Why...I'm not....the culprit? Sure....why not? That way...I'll show how fucking wrong you are, Serenade!" Non-Stop Debate Evidence bullets -The secret of the Despair Nightmares -Vent -Globe -Smudged writing Wild- Let's play a fun game called: Wild is not the culprit Nimbus- We have no time for stalling Orion- We just need a reason on why you aren't the culprit. Is it that...You don't have a motive? You got that wrong! "No, one motive exists, for all of us technically. The Despair Nightmares that we experienced. If Moonlight is Wild's killer...that gives perfect motive to kill her!" "Tch! D-don't be ridiculous" "Umm...whilst we're on the subject-" Orion starts "Remember! You aren't allowed to talk about the details of your Despair Nightmare ever since that rule was applied!" Monokuma interrupts "Yes, that is true..." Beau bites her lip "So we can't actually say that the Despair Nightmare is the motive to kill" "B-Beau?!" Serenade said in disbelief "You bet it isn't!" Wild smirked "What now Serenade? Your argument holds no merit!" "I didn't say that" Beau retorts "H-huh?" "Serenade still has a strong argument, we just can't say that the Despair Nightmare is the reason you killed Moonlight" "Dammit! I didn't kill her!" "You did, didn't I already say that I figured out the culprit?" Beau smiles "Y-you...bitch" "Now Serenade...could you continue on what you were saying?" "Right...there is evidence to suggest that you're the culprit, Wild" "Bullshit! I'm not the culprit!" "But there is still no sufficient evidence to say that!" Nimbus argues "And again I say, it's the same for me being the culprit!" Wild is strong spirited, he isn't going to admit it easily...so either I find something hard-hitting or keep piling the evidence on "Well, we should start on this 'accomplice' that Wild had" Olive suggests "Ha! Is if one exists!" Non-Stop Debate Evidence bullets -Hammer's Testimony -Vent -Metal Rod B- T-the culprit h-has an accomplice...That could f-fit in the vents...and be strong enough to carry t-the m-metal rod Orion- So the obvious question is...did Mr Beast have something like that at his disposal? Punch- Could you imagine that someone might see it in the vents? Agreed! Punch seemed genuinely shocked by that outburst "R-really? Someone saw it?" Wild watched intently at Serenade as Punch spoke "Right...Hammer, you remember when you got stuck in the vent?" "Uh...yeah? What about it?" "Do you remember exactly why to tried to fit inside?" "Hmm..." Hammer thought for a second "I think....I think I saw something moving inside and then I climbed in to get a better look..." "And you did see something...and whatever it was...was Wild's accomplice to the murder!" "W-whoa? For real? I saw something case-breaking?!" "You wanna break a case? Tickery saw a briefcase in one of the rooms on the second floor if you want to smash that with one of your hammers!" Tickery giggled "Tickery...'case-breaking' is an expression, not a literal term" Olive explained to her "Oh...well then that's kinda boring!" "A-anyway, whatever Hammer saw moving around in the vent had to be what Wild sent to transport the metal rod!" "Hell no! What the hell could I use to travel around the vents?!" Wild interrupted Actually...that's a rather easy question to answer, after all, Wild already told me the answer to that question Of course! "Wild, you said you lost your pet hamster somewhere today" "G-grnk!" "If I'm right...the place you lost the hamster in...was the ventilation system!" "You shut your fat ass mouth with your half-ass arguments and half-ass logic!" "Serenade's logic is anything but half-assed" Beau tells him "Excuse me?! EXCUSE ME?!!!" "Serenade, you must have some basis for saying it was Wild's hamster that acted as Wild's 'accomplice', correct?" She knows me so well...yes that evidence that was said to me... Of course! "B's examination results showed that Moonlight's skirt had been chewed on by something...I bet you it was Wild's hamster!" "W-well...there could be other explanations..." Hammer blushed "Shut up before I shut your mouth for you!" Punch cracks her knuckles "S-sorry!" "Well...he isn't completely incompetent for thinking that..." "Mr Darkness! I expect better of you!" Orion scolded "Urk! M-my apologies, Orion..." These two need to get a room "Okay, leaving any perverted thoughts those two are thinking behind" Beau looks back and forth between Hammer and Nimbus "I have to say, a hamster, if trained right could do the task and since Wild is the 'Super High School Level Animal Tamer'-" "Hold up!" Wild said quickly "Just cause you think it's MY hamster automatically makes me the culprit?! Anyone here could have stolen poor Gideon and used him..." Wild's ears drooped as he said that. Well...I'd hate to admit but, he's got a point... "No...Wild is most defiantly the one that used the hamster" Beau states "W-why...? WHY THE HELL IS IT ME?!" Wild was on the verge of breakdown. "Then I guess it's time for it all to be explained...isn't that right Serenade?" "Y.....yes...this needs to be finished..." Here's is how it happened! Act 1 Moonlight was in the aquarium, investigating after she had split up from Zoom. The culprit, who was also investigating after he split up from his investigation partner walked in whilst she was there. Moonlight, was most likely the killer in the culprit's Despair Nightmare making him extremely wary around her. It was in seconds, his mind started booting up realizing that he could stop her from attempting to kill him so he decided he wouldn't let her get the chance. Act 2 The culprit invited Moonlight to look at the fish in the centre tank which was Moonlight's first mistake. When she let her guard down, the culprit grabbed the back of Moonlight's head and smashed her head against the centre tank which became the flat weapon in this case. But Moonlight wasn't dead yet. Act 3 Moonlight, weakly got up and attempted to get away from the culprit but he must have been blocking off the exit. That's when she noticed the vent up high on the wall and tried to make her escape so the culprit had to act fast. He left the aquarium and went to the storage closet and grabbed one of the paint tins but not without being seen by Hammer who was walking by. Act 4 When he entered, he saw that Moonlight was already about to make her escape, he flew up in a rush and swung the newly acquired paint tin which ended Moonlight's life. The culprit proceeded to use the red paint in the tin to create the 'blood wall' effect. Then he decided to alter the crime scene even further when he noticed that he must have knocked Moonlight's microphone out of her possession to confuse us on the flat weapon, he broke off the top and had a certain 'accomplice' carry away the metal rod. Then he went to do his part. Replace the round weapon. Act 5 When the culprit left the crime scene, he was saw by a passer-by in the hallway, Lock. When Lock went inside, he saw what the culprit had done and attempted to show who was the guilty party among us by writing his name on the centre tank and before the culprit could find him, he ran out of the aquarium and met up with his investigation partner, Orion. Act 6 The culprit, after Orion left the geography room, snuck in and grabbed the globe inside and ran back into the aquarium. He cover the globe in either the blood or paint and when he turned he saw that someone had came along and wrote his name on the centre tank. That's when the culprit acted fast, only rubbing away three letters, thinking he could blame Zoom for the crime later. Meanwhile in the vents, the culprit's accomplice, the hamster was making its way through the vents and ended up in the geography room, leaving the metal rod inside the room and going back to the culprit but not before being seen by Hammer who got stuck in the vent. When the hamster got back however, instead of remaining undetected, he chewed on Moonlight's skirt which ended up being the reason for the culprits downfall. And the one that put this whole thing together could only be you! Wild Beast! "And that's how it happened, isn't it, Wild?" "He...hehehehehehe..." Wild grinned "IT'S NOT OVER UNTIL I SAY IT'S OVER!!!" "Y-you serious man?" Hammer scratched his head "You haven't proved anything! You haven't proved my hamster was the thing that was in the vents yet! Without that you can't convict me of murdering Moonlight!" Machinegun Talk Battle Wild- Where's the proof? Wild- You have no proof! Wild- You have no case! Wild- I...I couldn't kill her... Wild- Just because I have a hamster?! Wild- You're an idiot! Wild- I hate you! Enough! Wild- You can't prove my hamster was in the vents! Shedding fur! "It's common knowledge that if there's one thing certain animals do a lot, it's shedding their fur or skin, if there are hamster shedding in the vents, then that proves your hamster was in there!" "N...no..." Wild looked down at the ground "Upupupupu! It seems we have reached a conclusion!" Monokuma speaks "Now it's ballot time! In front of you are sixteen buttons, one for each student. You will cast your votes and majority votes will determine the culprit. Will you be right? Or will you be oh, so wrong!? What's it gonna be? What is it gonna be?!" As the last button was pushed the huge slot machine appeared with 'Voting Machine' in red on the top. The three dials began to spin quickly for another few seconds before all three stop on Wild's face causing a red 'GUILTY' sign to flash and two bouquets of flowers to pop out the sides. "Kwahahahaha! Twice in a row, amigo! The one that brutally killed Moonlight Exclusive was none other than Wild Beast!" "H-hold on a moment" Orion interrupted "Could we keep the trial going a little longer?"
