I felt sick. Really sick. I put my hand over my mouth and ran back to my bathroom.

I threw up in the toilet. Head still killing me. My mind raced. This wasn't real, right? It was just a nightmare. But I could still smell it. The rotten smell of death and that cursed image ingrained in my brain.

As I continued to throw up the rest of last night's dinner, an announcement went off. One we haven't heard before.

'Ding dong bing bong'

"A body has been discovered!" It spoke giddly. Excited to share this new found information, "We will now begin the investigation. After a certain amount of time we will begin the class trial." (Blah blah blah)

I wiped my mouth and attempted to regain my composure. I mentally prepared myself to walk back out of my room.

Everyone was here, staring at the body. I desperately tried to avoid it.

"I can't believe it. It's not true! It's not real!" I heard Silver Spoon say. Candle spoke calmly to him, trying to calming him down.

"AHH! He was- he was-!!" Bow sobbed.

OJ gently walked over to her. Taking her hand and helping her over the body she was stuck behind.

I watched as she cowered into OJ's arms the moment she was away. "It's going to be okay. Do you want some water?" He spoke calmly with her. She meekly nodded. Then they made their way to the kitchen.

I caught myself staring at the body again. My vision blurred. At least his eyes were closed. I could hear crying and yelling around me.

A noise from my Monopad snapped me back to reality. I opened it up to see a picture of LifeRing.

I sighed.

"Well, we should start investigating!" Testtube suddenly said.

"Someone just DIED!?" Teakettle yelled with tears in her eyes.

"You heard the announcement, r-right?" Testtube genuinely asked.

"Do we not get any time to mourn?" Teakettle sain with aggression and sadnessin her voice. She was the closest to LifeRing, even though none of us really knew eachother that well. This was clearly hard on her.

Nickel spoke up, "Just because it was an announcement, doesn't mean we need to blindly, fucking follow it!"

"You saw what happened to Paintbrush when you try to defy it. Besides, don't you want to find out who did it, f-for clarity's sake?"

"Not really..." Teakettle said.

"Testtube's right, we need to begin the investigation. We just need to do what MonoPhone asked us, and we will surely make it out alive." said Candle.
