Monokuma appeared from around a corner. “And I can help!”
Everyone flinched, and Heket simply glared at him, as if silently telling him to get on with it.
“I have just sent a Monokuma File to all of your Monopods!” He said, motioning to the Monopods.”
Dribble pulled up his, and opened the Monokuma file.
‘Victim’s name: Vanessa Shelly Afton
Location of Death: Lounge
Time of Death: ???
Cause of death: Arrow to the Brain’
“...So, the time of death is a mystery?” Gabriel asked.
“Only to you all, not to me or the killer!” Monokuma replied, before vanishing.

Monokuma File #1: The first Monokuma File. It reads: ‘Victim’s name: Vanessa Shelly Afton

“...now what?” Gourmand spoke.
“Let’s get some Alibi’s going, see where everyone was.” Holly said.
“If it helps,” Dribble spoke up. “I heard someone walking by my room last night as I was going to bed.”
Truth Bullet acquired! Someone walked by Dribble’s Room
Someone walked by Dribble’s Room: Self explanatory. Someone walked by Dribble’s room last night.
Heket nodded. “Gourmand and Bill took inventory of the Armory earlier, did they not?”
Bill gave a curt nod. “A bow and 1 arrow was missing.”
Truth Bullet Acquired! Missing Bow and arrow
Missing Bow: A bow and a single arrow was missing from the armory when Bill and Gourmand did the inventory this morning.
“Hey, what's that?” Holly asked.
Dribble looked at what she was, and saw what looked like a tripwire. Upon pulling on the trip wire, he felt something pull.
He looked up, and saw the bow strapped to the chandelier.
“So there it is.”
Truth Bullet Acquired! Bow in the Chandelier.
Bow in the Chandelier: A trip wire leads to the missing bow in the chandelier.
Dribble then looked at Holly.
“Did you hear anything last night? Your room is right across from mine, so if I heard anything, you must’ve heard it too.” He asked
“Yeah. I heard this god awful scraping noise. It was like metal on metal.”
Truth Bullet Acquired! Holly heard scraping
Holly heard scraping: Holly heard scraping last night. She described it as being akin to metal on metal.
Dribble felt a tap on his shoulder.
“I want to give you my Alibi.” Heket spoke. “But it is best if we do it in private.”
Dribble nodded. “How about the supply closet?”
Heket and Dribble then went into the supply closet, when the two noticed something.
“Hey…ain't there supposed to be a ladder in here?” Dribble asked, looking up at Heket.
“But it seems it was taken.” Heket said.
Truth Bullet Acquired! Missing Ladder
Missing Ladder: A Ladder was missing from the supply closet.
“So, anyways,” Dribble looked at Heket again. “What was it that you wanted to say?”
“I wanted to tell you why I was late to breakfast this morning. I was supposed to meet Bill in his room last night, around 4, to discuss someone’s secret. But when I got there…he was not there. Vanessa wasn't in her room either, nor were Natsuki or Gabriel. Instead, I found a note, laying out Gabriel’s secret.” Heket said.
Truth Bullets acquired! Heket’s Alibi and 4 people weren't in their room
Heket’s Alibi: Heket was supposed to meet Bill in his room last night at around 4. But, he wasn't in his room at the time.
4 people weren't in their room: Bill, Vanessa, Natsuki and Gabriel were all not in their rooms last night.
“And what was Gabriel’s secret, if you don't mind me asking?” Dribble asked, looking at Heket.
“I found a note on his door. It read: ‘Gabriel Agreste is the infamous supervillain Shadow Moth. As Shadow Moth, Gabriel used the powers of the Butterfly and Peacock Miraculouses to brainwash children and adults alike to obtain the Ladybug and Cat Miraculouses, and unite them to obtain a wish to revive his dead wife.’ I took the note and kept it, as it was what Gabriel would’ve wanted me to do.”
Truth Bullet Acquired! Gabriel’s Secret
Gabriel’s Secret: Heket found a note on Bill’s door with Gabriel’s secret on it. It reads: ‘Gabriel Agreste is the infamous supervillain Shadow Moth. As Shadow Moth, Gabriel used the powers of the Butterfly and Peacock Miraculouses to brainwash children and adults alike to obtain the Ladybug and Cat Miraculouses, and unite them to obtain a wish to revive his dead wife.’
Dribble nodded. “Okay, I'm gonna go ask Gabriel something.”
He left the Supply closet and went to go find Gabriel. Once he did, he approached the man.
“Heket told me you and Natsuki weren’t in your rooms last night. Why?” Dribble asked.
“She and I were discussing the secrets, and walking the halls. We encountered Heket outside of Bill’s room at around 4. At 5, we found Bill, and he was using bottled water to wash his hands off. He said he got something on his hands when he ate a midnight snack.” Gabriel said.
Truth Bullet Acquired! Gabriel and Natsuki’s Alibi
Gabriel and Natsuki’s Alibi: The two were wandering the halls last night, presumably before 3. They found Heket at Bill’s room at 4. Later, at 5, they found Bill using bottled water to clean his hands. He claimed he had eaten a midnight snack and got something on his hands.
The P.A then turned on.
“Alright everyone!” Monokuma announced. “Investigation time is over! Make your way to the mess hall, and get into the elevator to go participate in a Sub Trial!”
Dribble and everyone else made their way into the mess hall, and then, into the elevator. Orbulon sent it to the Trial Room, and everyone was silent as the elevator descended.
‘Someone really killed someone over a secret. And it was Vanessa, of all people, too.’ Dribble thought. ‘Who killed her? Why kill her? Don't worry, Vanessa. I will find who killed you. And I will make them pay. You may have had a dark secret, but no one deserves to die.’
