"This banner was supposed to be hung to make it seem like I was the one responsible. After all, Kim wanted me to spray paint the banner so he could replace it with the one in Leon's hand."

Kim clenched his jaw, hating how she ruined everything they had worked hard for. "And you are going to accuse me? Like you said, we were the only ones there, so how do we know that you aren't just covering up for yourself?"

Megan sighed, knowing that Kim would do anything to ensure that the fault lay with her. "Because if you look at the cans and check them for DNA, it doesn't have mine. But it has yours."

Kim takes a step forward. "What do you mean it doesn't have your DNA, you were holding onto the spray can. Don't try to deny that."

"I'm not arguing that I never used the spray cans. I just wore rubber gloves to prevent getting my hands dirty. You, on the other hand, have spray paint all over your clothes."

Kim scoffed, his arms crossed in denial. "As if, you think I would be stupid enough to get spray paint all over myself."

"Then you have no problem with me showing everyone the clothes you have already ruined with spray paint?"

Kim flinched, his body language failed at hiding his nerves. "Psh, go ahead and try."

"I don't have to try. Besides, you were the one who left these behind. In fact..." she held out a bag for Kim to take. "Can you show everyone what's inside the bag?"

Kim mumbled under his breath as he took the bag, he pulled out the sweater he wore when the can broke. He wasn't sure what she was getting at but it gave him a bit of relief that it was just this sweater. He scoffed. "Yeah I threw this out, it was ruined, and no point in washing it. What I can't throw away some ruined clothes?"

"Keep looking in the bag." She says.

Kim was a bit confused about what she meant, but he still reached inside the bag. Before he could pull out what was left from the bag he caught a glimpse of what was inside. His eyes widened in slight horror, he just remained silent which caused Megan to speak up.

"Go ahead Kim, show them what else is in there."

Knowing he had no way out of this, he slowly pulled out a burnt shirt from the bag. Megan walks over to Kim. "Mind telling me what this is?"

"It... it's my shirt, but what does that have to do with anything."

"Was this not the same shirt you wore when you got paint all over your sweater? And if so, why is it all burnt instead of just left alone like the sweater?"

Kim shoved the clothes back in the bag, his frustration was almost boiling out. "What's with the damn questions? Ever heard of minding your business? And besides all this could have easily been you, you said it yourself that you wore the rubber gloves. How do we know that you weren't just pinning this on us!"

His accusations made the other students murmur between them. Some were skeptical while some were convinced about Kim's claim. Leon looked around feeling helpless that he didn't have much to bring to the table other than just his statements. He glanced over at Melody who was still worried about the body camera she didn't get back.

If Kim was going to make the tables turn against Megan then who's to say he won't do the same with Melody? He couldn't bear that thought one bit, after all, Melody didn't have any answers to where the body camera was and she was worried that one of the three boys had them. Just waiting for a moment to strike.

Leon glanced back at Megan to see if she had any sense of fear of how this could backfire badly, but her reaction remained nonchalant. As if she knew this was how it would happen, no ounce of hesitation or deflection was on her face.
