A boy who's been in poverty his whole life and is always looking for cash, y/n Soul is accepted into Hope's Peak Academy for being the "Ultimate Thief" due to him being the metaphorical anchor in many large scale thefts and robberies. However, thing...
We each make our way to a stand with our name on the inside of it and stand behind them. I was between Byakuya and Celeste. Hooray. Once we're all in our assigned spots, Monokuma begins the very first class trial.
Monokuma: Now then, let's begin with a basic explanation of the class trial! So, your votes will determine the results. If you can figure out "whodunnit" then only they will receive punishment. But, if you pick the wrong person, then I'll punish everyone BESIDES the blackened, and the one who deceived everyone else, will graduate.
Taka: Ok, can everyone close their eyes and the killer raise their hand?!
Mondo: Don't be an idiot! Why the hell would they raise their hand?!
Kyoko: Before we go any further, I'd like to ask about those.
She points to one of the two signs of Junko and Sayaka's faces, respectively, each sign having a large pink X on it.
Kyoko: Why are they here?
Monokuma: Oh, well, I'd feel just awful if they got left out of the fun just because they're dead. I, personally, believe that friendship penetrates even death's barrier.
Hifumi: Friendship...penetrates?
y/n: Hifumi, definitely not the time for that. But, while I'm thinking about it, what's the deal with the extra spot?
I gesture to the empty podium between Hiro and Hina.
y/n: There's only sixteen of us, so why do you need seventeen spots?
Monokuma: Oh, there's no real reason for that. It just so happens that our little courtroom can hold up to seventeen participants, that's all. Now then, if we're done with all the pointless chatter, let's get the class trial started!
Taka: Alright then. I assert that the one who was murdered was Miss Sayaka Maizono!
y/n: Thanks, Taka, I think we all got that.
Byakuya: And the murder took place in Makoto's room.
Hina: In the bathroom.
Chihiro: It seems likely that the killer took Sayaka by surprise in the bathroom. She didn't even have a chance to resist.
Makoto: Hold on a second, Chihiro. Try to remember how my room looked. With the way everything had been damaged, I'd say we can definitely assume there was a struggle.
