Class S: Last Elites Standing (COTE fancfic)

Chapter 12: The Trial

11:00 PM, the night before the day of the trial

Light POV 

I'm currently outside waiting for someone. I told this person to meet me beforehand after class, I asked for this person's phone number, and I would call later and telling the person to meet me here. The trial is tomorrow, and I want to get things sorted out as much as possible. 

"You're here" I said. I didn't need to look behind me since I was already expecting who this person is. 

"Why did you want to meet me here?" Horikita said 

"It's about the trial" I said 

"And what of it?" she asked 

"I heard that you nor the class has found any evidence yet, am I right?" 

Horikita was silent for a bit until she spoke again. 

"Why do you care?" 

"I have a reason to believe that this incident is more than just a simple issue on its own" 

"What exactly do you mean by that? 

"I won't tell you the details but as long as it can benefit us, then consider your class to be under our protection....for now of course" 

"I want myself and a few classmates of mine to takeover for you guys, if that's all right with you" I continued 

"Do what you want, but I want to ask, why are you guys even helping us?" she asked 

"Some of my classmates want to help and there are others that don't, but I told them personally that I wouldn't mind doing things having to take over on this one" 

"So this is your own decision then?" 

"Yes, besides I uphold the value of bringing justice to society" 

"Justice? you sound like a detective" 

"Exactly but that's all I've got to say"  

"So do we have a deal?"

The day of the trial 

- 

We are currently in the room where the student council, the three students from Class C including their sensei, Sakagami are here. Myself, Ryuzaki, Akise, Sudo, Sakura as well as Class D's sensei Chabashira.  

"Are you sure you know what you're doing?" Sudo asked 

"Of course, you can trust me" I said 

"Let us begin, we will now hold deliberations regarding the incident that occurred last Tuesday." she said. The one talking from what I've heard is the Student Council's secretary Tachibana Akane. 

"As Student Council secretary, I Tachibana, preside" 

"From what I'm aware of, given your busy schedule as the Student Council, it is quite rare to see any of you to take action" Ryuzaki said 

"You are correct, but I had to miss my participations in a few agendas, since I've heard that the one who will be involved in this trial is Class S themselves" I wonder if he's that intrigued about us, well from what Ayanokouji said about him. He seems quite interested in Class S. 

"I see, so you also acknowledge the strength that this class wields, eh?" Chabashira-sensei said 

"Now to both sides: I wish to ascertain which version of events are true" 

"Then let us begin then" the president said as Tachibana began to speak. 

"According to Ishizaki and the other two, you were called to the special annex building by Sudo and then attacked by him. Sudo denies the claim that he caused violence and insists that Komiya was the one who called him there. Both versions of the events are contradictory"
