     Olivia found Max. I was coming out of the Art room, when she grabbed my arm and said,

    "Lizzie!"

    "Jeez! Olivia! Are you trying to scare the shiz out of me?" I asked.

   "Tell the others to meet me by the pool." Was all she said.

    "Um... ok" I said, very confused.

   I told the others, and soon Olivia stood in front of us, next to the lockers by the pool.

    "So what's this about?" Nick asked.

   "Yeah, why are we here, when we should be getting evidence?" Ross said.

   "This" Olivia answered, her voice monotone.

   She opened the locker closest to her. Stuffed inside was the Justice Robo costume. We gasped.

   "Is the person still in there?" Jess asked.

   We worked together, and the suit came out, with a little difficulty. The helmet came off, and Max was looking very confused.

    "Um, can someone explain to me why I'm in this suit... GAH!" He started, then cried out when he fell, "Dang it! This thing doesn't bend at the waist!"

     "Oh, cut it out! We know you're guilty man!" Barney cried.

    "Guilty of what?" Max asked as Jess and I unlatched the suit.

   Max stretched once he got out, and said,

   "Thanks" to me and Jess.

    "To be honest, I have no idea what you guys are talking about. I got a note from someone saying to come to the game room. Whoever wrote it said that they had possibly found a way out. So I went there, then... I don't really remember anything after I breathed in this funny smelling  stuff someone put up to my face." Max said.

    "Huh. So we're supposed to just believe you." Ross asked.

    "Let's focus less at playing the blame game, and more on gathering evidence, shall we?" Olivia said.

   I nodded.

    "Yeah, let's go." I said.

    I checked around to see if I could find anything that could be a clue. In the workshop, a couple hammers were hanging up. The largest one looked like it had been washed. I went to the art room, and found Olivia already examining the bodies. She looked at me as I came in.

    "Lizzie... Do you notice anything odd about Ashlie's face?" she asked.

   I looked, and Something strange did stand out. Weird. In the corner of the room, a trolley thing had pink blood on the wheels.  After thirty to forty minutes, It was time for the Trial to commence.

Em pointed to Max.

   "All the evidence points to you, Max."

   "What? I told you! I just woke up in that suit!" Max yelled back.

   "Ashlie tried to say your freaking name, Max, don't try to deny it!" Tommy called.

   "Yeah! You killed Ashlie and Sasha in that Robo Justice cosplay! Then you ran across the school and hid the bodies to throw us off! Then you went and hid in the pool locker!" Barney cried.

    "Actually, your story makes no sense Barney" Nick said, "Max couldn't have run anywhere in that suit."

   The others took this into consideration.
