NOTE: Bolded words are the yellow words in the game, while the actual bolded words have astrics around them! Leon's execution will be linked instead of described, so if you don't want, or are not comfortable enough, to watch Leon's execution, feel free to skip it.
"Uh-oh!" Monokuma said, sounding the slighest bit dissapointed. "Looks like you got it right on the money! The blackend in this case, the one that killed Sayaka...was none other than Leon Kuwata!"
I looked back over at Leon and the rest of the group. We had all left our podiums at this point. All I could see was the horror that was spread across Leon's face. The horror in his eyes...the way his mouth was ajar...it was something that was impossible to capture in words or in a drawing, knowing my talent. I felt...guilty. I had done the right thing and yet, one of my friends was going to die.
"...Huh?" Leon said. "H-Hold on a second..."
"Leon..." I said, almost in disbelief, hoping that I was wrong. "Leon, did you really...kill Sayaka?"
"I don't believe it..." Aoi said in shock.
"Son of a bitch...!" Mondo said before raising his voice, to which I promptly covered my ears. "What the hell is wrong with you?!"
"I-I didn't have a choice..." Leon stammered. "It was kill or be killed! S-So that's why...I killed her first," And just like that, his expression completely changed into anger and he began to shout, to which I covered my ears again. "None of you are any different! One wrong step, and you'd be the one standing here! It was a complete chance that I wound up like this!" His voice softened and his expression changed back to what it originally was. "I was just...unlucky! That's all..."
"Grr...!" Mondo growled.
"H-Hey, come on...!" Leon said, a nervous smile appearing on his face. "You expect me to just accept my death?!"
...Everything's become clear...The decision we made was right after all. But when I think about that...honestly, I'd be better off if we'd been wrong. Because if what we came up with really is the truth...Then that truth is that Sayaka was trying to frame me...But...Even if that's true...I can't say she was wrong. After all, the mastermind...
"It's all because of that video..." I thought aloud, remembering the horrific things I saw.

"Even I couldn't handle what I saw in there," I said. "If I was her, and the video actually had something to do with me, I can't even imagine..."
My mind went back to the conversation Sayaka and I had had a few days before hand. When I had grabbed that damn katana to use as something to defend myself despite the fact I knew martial arts.
