Cookieronpa: Death Dough

Chapter 13: STOP ARGUING!

*CLASS DEBATE START*
Raspberry: So to start with, did anyone see any-
Knight: Ask the guy who was meant to guard them!
Lilac: Funny to hear a Knight say that.
Blackberry: Wait... Lilac, did you guard Fig?
Lilac: I saw Fig this morning, and I was going to guard them. But when did I say that to you, Knight?
Knight: Maybe I overheard you!
Raspberry: Can we calm down? I'm trying to make a conclusion. So none of us saw blood trails, right? Maybe that means Fig was elevated! Think about it, that makes sense!
Knight: Lilac probably did his weird hide thing and slit their throat with a chakram!
Raspberry: Shut up with your Lilac hate, Knight! I don't know who you think the mastermind is, BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER! BECAUSE RIGHT NOW WE'RE FIG-URING OUT WHAT HAPPENED! SO FOR THE LOVE OF EARTHBREAD, STOP ARGUING!
Parfait: Calm down, Raspberry! You're stressing out!
Mint: I agree with Parfait. Take a breath.
Raspberry:... Thank you guys.
Blackberry: So I'd assume nobody saw anything worth mentioning?
(Everyone shakes their heads.)
I thought so. Now who here has the most access to weapons?
Princess: This may make you all mad, but you, Raspberry, Tiger Lily, Knight, Pastry, Crepe, Espresso and Lilac have weapon access. Maybe a few others, but they have a lot.
Raspberry: Hey! Don't throw us under the bus!
Princess: Sorry. I'm just making a point. Don't get your dough get sour (rolls eyes) and it's true.
Blackberry: I can probably defend myself. I was in the library for the whole day. From when I woke up, and before the body discovery. And I think I might have an idea for who it was. Who has access to a hammer and a rope?
...
Espresso: Crepe... Don't you have access to both?
Crepe: How would you know? You've never seen my room.
Pastry: It's true. Just so happens that hammers are loud. That loud bang I heard a few hours ago... What was that?
Crepe: I dunno, could be anything. But it's dumb to assume a WAFFLEBOT MAKER would be interested in a centaur.
Espresso: It's a logic based statement. Now when did you strike?
Crepe: I didn't.
Tiger Lily: Bot! Wafflebot lift Fig!
Crepe: Eh? What are you saying, kitty flower?
Princess: She said that the Wafflebot lifted Fig, explaining why there's no blood.
Espresso: A child that killed someone? Gosh, what's next?
Jellykuma: Voting time!
Crepe: HOLD THE HELL ON! I DID NOTHING!
Parfait: You tortured Fig... Why?
Crepe:... BECAUSE I WAS BORED!
...
Mint: You were bored... So you tortured and killed an innocent cookie?
Crepe: FINE, THAT WAS THE REASON!
Pastry: That's messed up.
Crepe: YOU THINK ALL CAKES SHOULD DIE. DON'T CALL ME MESSED UP!
Pastry: Listen here you little shit-
Parfait: I think this trial should be wrapped up before an argument happens!
Mint: I agree!
Espresso: Wow, not even the time for a consent. And this was fast.
Blackberry: What? A consent?
Espresso: You know, the blue screen that appears when I agree with someone.
...
Espresso: Ugh, I hate being a protagonist.
Jellykuma: Anyways, be sure to vote!

You all voted for Strawberry Crepe. And you were correct! NOW THEN. I've prepared a dough-chilling execution for the Ultimate Robot Builder! IT'S PUNISHMENT TIIIIIME!
Crepe:...
Blackberry: Any last words?
Crepe:... Nothing.
Lilac: Look, we know you wanted to escape and have fun. But we're trying to get out of here alive.
Crepe:... But I'm gonna die... I don't want to die!
Mint: I mean, nobody's really truly gone, right?
Raspberry: That makes no sense. And why should we feel sympathy for them? They killed Fig! That's not good!
Mint: I wasn't choosing a side. I was just saying that to comfort them.
Raspberry: They're dead. No matter how you say it, Crepe is going to die.
Crepe: No! I don't want to die! Please Jellykuma, don't kill me! I'll do anything!
Jellykuma: I'm not gonna break the rules for my own desires! Sorry Crepe!
Pastry: Get on with it.
Jellykuma: Hmph! Rude!
Crepe: NOOOOOO!
—————————————————————————
Crepe has been found guilty. Time for their punishment.

Everyone left, and Espresso was pulled into a nearby closet by Knight.
"Huh- What?"
"Listen Espresso, I know for a fact Lilac is the mastermind! He walks around, spies on us, knows everything we do, and you think that he's trustworthy?!"
"... Knight, release me."
"No! Not until you listen to me!"
"You're in no place to make commands."
"I'm a Hollyberry Palace knight, I'll do what I want!"
"Then why don't you kill someone? Better yet, tell us who the mastermind is?"
"!"
"You've known for ages, just tell us! If you want to be useful, don't manipulate me into thinking it's Lilac and tell us!"
"... It is Lilac! Look at this!" Knight handed him a paper. It read out as following:
"Dear Lilac Cookie,
We at the Cookieronpa Murder Association are asking you to be a mastermind. You'll get one thing that you really want if you can successfully host a game.
It will last a while, and you may die. But for now, that will not matter.
We look forward to hearing your response.
-K. Cookie."
...
"Who is K. Cookie?"
"I dunno, probably anyone."
"What if you're K Cookie?"
"No! I'm not the mastermind!"
"Ugh! You're hopeless! I'm done with this discussion, goodnight!" Espresso walked out and went to his room, frustrated. Why couldn't Knight just expose the mastermind?
... Wait.
What if...
Knight is the mastermind?

HEY GUYS IT'S YOUR AUTHOR MAKING ANOTHER INTERESTING CHAPTER. WOW IT'S BEEN A WHILE.
Sorry that I haven't updated for ages, I'm a busy woman (not really lol I'm just struggling with ideas) BUT TYSM FOR 5K+ READS!!! :D
Because I'm so grateful, I have a gift! I'll show you guys my artwork!

And also...

My oc!!!
(I used MYMAGICOVEN and sorry if she looks too similar to Princess)
This is French Fancy Cookie. She grew up in a big regal mansion (Blue Fondant Mansion) and left to be a Cookie of Darkness. She helps Crepe sometimes, likes Red Velvet, doesn't enjoy doing overly evil stuff and a falling shelf hit her hand one time. Soooo yeah there's small cracks there.
I can talk about her for ages, so if you want a chapter dedicated to her then let me know.
