I'm back! Because who ever heard of an update schedule. I'm just updating what I want, when I want at this point.

Also, we're going to just speed through the trial so... you'll know what happens just not in the same detail.

Finally, how you made it this far without figuring this out but SPOILERS!!! The murderer and mystery is spoiled pretty quickly so you might want to watch the episode if you haven't already.

So here we go...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The blond's body hitting the floor seemed to knock everyone out of their panic and into their hysteria.

He moves over to Chihiro, who looks like he's in the middle of an anxiety attack and puts his arm around his shoulder to put the hacker a little closer. He, then wraps them in sky aura that even causes the others to start to lean in his direction.

The result is instantaneous. The brunet breathes in and starts regaining his color again. Not all of it, sky flames can't soothe everything, but some of it. Even Asohina, who was close enough to feel some of the effects, stopped shaking some.

"Honestly I wanted to avoid messy situations like that as much as humanly possible. But when an example is begging to be made, you can't let a bad attitude slide. Let's hope the gravity of your situation is beginning to sink in. High stakes are high," The bear threatens.

"Best of luck playing junior detectives. The trial will be getting underway soon, so put on those thinking caps and start a case cracking." With that, Monokuma leaves.

Naegi seems to still be in shock. "This is insanity. What do we do? If that was an example..."

Togami, ever the blunt one, with Celeste and Kirigiri, seem to have moved on. "At the very least we can rule out Enoshima as a suspect in Maizono's death."

"I propose we move forward with the investigation," expands the black-haired gambler. "Not to sound unduly harsh but morning for lives lost can only hamper our chances of saving our own."

Tsuna pipes in. "You failed at that. I can see your reasoning but you still failed."

"The girl is mourned, not least of all by me." Tsuna gives her a bewildered look. "Those who cannot adapt will be quickly swept away on the tide of their own obsolescence. In short good riddance."

"What was that about not trying to sound unduly harsh?"

"That is a terrible thing to say!" See Asohina agrees!

"Our personal feelings on the matter are neither here no there. The situation we have been tasked with is either unmask the culprit or die," Kirigiri explains.

The fortune teller interjects, "Oh, crap! Heads up, guys! We got sent some new pages."

Mondo doesn't seem to care but someone points out that it gives a complete rundown of Maizono's cause of death. He must not have gotten it on his and in his distraction he almost misses the next comment.

"Apparently, the room she was found in wasn't her own, but quite tellingly it was Naegi's."

His denials rang true so just as Tsuna was going to clear his name he stopped. This counts as investigation doesn't it. I can't...

By time he pulls himself out of that thought, people are leaving the gym. As we watch them head for the door, Chihiro asks him what he plans on doing. "I don't really know. Maybe explore?" His HI is still ringing, though?
