"All the evidence points to you, Orange" Blackberry said "unless you can prove other wise we have to amuse it's you" "I-I I can't prove that I'm not the impostor I didn't scan in medbay." Orange said defeated. 

"Didn't you say we should execute the killer?" Coconut asked Blackberry, while Orange began to look incredibly panicked. "Yes, I did say that" The girl with long black hair confirmed. "Well how do you think we should do that?" Coconut asked. "The trash chute." Blackberry stated. 

"GUYS STOP" I yell interrupting Coconut and Blackberry's conversation, every one staring at me so I could say "We haven't even disused all the evidence. What about the dagger and the scrunchy?" "What dagger? What scrunchy?" Lime asked after my quickly stated argument. "Me and Orange saw a blood covered dagger and this scrunchy near the body." I answer pulling the fabric covered hair tie out of my dress pocket, still with a little blood on it. The girl with a red hood covering her face looked up slightly from the table and said in a quiet voice "That's mine, I left it in nav.""So you're really the killer?" Blue asked glaring at her. "N-no I j-just left it t-there." Cherry said clearly panicking, she pulled her hood tighter around her face. "Leave her alone!" I said standing up for Cherry  "She's telling the truth, she would never hurt anyone." From every conversation and interaction I had with her, she was nice plus she was the only one actually crying last time. "Yeah we should all no she wouldn't hurt any one." Pink agreed with me confidently. "What the fuck is wrong with two." Blue said almost yelling "We have to suspect every one."

 "Language" Cyan said hearing Blue say fuck. "We're all 16 no one gives a fuck." Blue said glaring at Cyan. "I'm just trying to calm every one down, the situation is already crazy we don't need-" "Shut the fuck up" He cut Cyan off. They just gave up on this, it had gone on a little too long and wasn't that important any ways. 

"Now that you two are done arguing about stupid stuff we can finish the meeting" The girl in a white dress and lab coat said "so we know the impostor is either Cherry or Orange and that the killer is probably from the other planet. Right?" We all nodded, their summery was correct. "I was with Cherry sense like an hour after lunch." I recounted trying to prove she was innocent. "I saw her right after breakfast." Coconuts said. "I was with her from the pod room till breakfast" Blackberry finished the alibi. "So it can't be Cherry with the evidence." The light blue haired enby said a little unsure but correct.  

"ITS NOT ME!!" Orange yelled crying at this point. "Well than who is it." Lime asked attempting to get Orange out of it. That's not how Orange took it though, so they just started yelling with tears in their eyes "IT CAN'T BE ME! I NEVER KILLED ANYONE!" and more things like that but with no evidence. It really dose seem like Orange is the killer. 

TW:Gore

After about a minute Orange stopped yelling, still freaking out but I think she hurt her voice or something. "You know what we have to do, are you going to come willingly?" Blackberry asked Orange in a calm voice. Orange glared at her before walking to storage with every one else. The storage chute was the only one large enough for a person to fit through. Orange stood on the plat form that was going to be released so they could fall into space. Right before Coconut pulled the release lever, Orange looked at all of us and said "I am not the killer and you'll soon find that out." The first floor fell and closed with orange in the middle of that hatch and the lower one. The last hatch opened less then a second later. There had to be to doors so it didn't let any oxygen out. We all watched Orange fall through on the other side of the window. Did we do the right thing, was Orange really the impostor or did we just kill an innocent person. As they were falling through the vacuum of space one more tear came down there face burning a path through their cheek as they died. (Due to the lack of pressure in space the boiling point of water is a lot colder than the human body temperature.) What if Orange really wasn't the killer?

I looked around the room to see every one else's reaction. Purple was just staring at the window and crying, not moving as the corpse floated away into space. Coconut was crying and looking at the floor by the lever. Pink was also crying hiding her face in her hand. Blue was crying and trying not to look at the window. Lime and Cyan were both just staring at the window in shock. Cyan had tears in their eyes but didn't move. Cherry was crying in Blackberry's arms, Blackberry was comforting her. Despite comforting Cherry and saying she understood, Blackberry's face showed no emotion. It was like she didn't even care about the horrible events that had just taken place. To think of it she was the one who suggested execution. Did she just want to see someone die. I stopped myself from thinking that. Blackberry was my friend and I shouldn't be thinking things like this about her.

I looked back at the window and saw as the corpse slowly shredded it's self. Their blood boiling to much for the their skin contain and bursting. The skin ripping away to reveal a skeleton covered in red bubbling liquid. Organs spilling out into the vacuum. It was so horrific and disgusting that I through up. 

The last thing I remember is Lime coming over and asking if I was ok, before I past out from shock.
