Saying Goodbye

The clinging of metal brought me back to reality. One by one we all got out of the elevator and to our assigned stands and started our classtrail. You stood in your standing waiting for someone to start. On your left stood Makoto and on your right stood Junko. "Excuse me before we start can you tell me what THAT means?" I slowly pointed to a picture which had Sayaka Maizono face on which was covered with a red cross that standed in an empty space. "Oh that's for when someone dies I put their face there so you can remeber their death or ugly face. It's up to you? Now can we get the trial started?" I nodded and started to talk about the murder weapon.

"The murder weapon obviously is the kitchen knife because who would have one in their room?" I pointed out to eveyone and they all agree so we started to figure out who would have a kitchen knife with them. There was a long silence pause until Asahina pointed out that when she and Sakura was in the kitchen Maizono to the knife with her back to her room.

"I saw aswell on the way to the kitchen but I never thought of why she needed it? Said Chihiro, but it wasn't enough evidence to clear Makoto's name. When ever the two of us tried to point about something we got shutdown before we could even finish. That was until Kyoko to control of the situation.

She pointed out how the bathroom door was thrashed, and if it was a girls bathroom it would be locked but it wasn't and didn't even have a lock ever, so you could tell that Makoto and Maizono did swap rooms. Also Makoto's bathroom door was broken so if he knew he could easily walk in and kill her so Makoto was in the clear but we were back at square one.

After a while Kyoko took out a letter that Maizono wrote to someone to her room. "Did she lure that certain somone into Makoto's room to kill them?" I asked Kyoko nervously. I didn't like were the situation was going.

After around 30 minutes Leon said something I knew was off. "There's no evidence to point out who the killer is right?.... So" I fet this sudden urge that came over me, It was like a video game when a character make a breakthrough and instinctly says a catchphrase.

"No Leon, what you said is wrong!!!" I pointed towards Leon. He freaks out for a second but immediately calms himself. "If there was no evidence of who the killer is, then how do you explain Sayaka's dying message?" I stood triumpantly, I remembered that Makoto witnessed it too, you confronted him.

"Yeah she left a sequence of numbers..... 11307 I believe-" Once again I shot Makoto's statement. I didn't want to say that's wrong but I had to correct him.

"I can correct that statement!!... I don't think it was numbers. Think about it Maizono was positined at the time, up against the bathroom wall. She wouldn't be able to move so when she wrote the message, she had to write it UPSIDE DOWN!!!!!"

"I agree with that" I looked over at Kyoko who had a smaill smirk on her face and nodded towards me to carry on. I nodded back and looked at Leon. "Just turn that message 180 degrees and you'll see what she means."

"H-Hey! That's stupid! It can't  be a name! Chihiro,  you  can decipher those numbers right?!?!" Leon is objecting?....His argument is soo weak too...

"Huh? Oh. I'm sorry Leon. I looked at the countless cobinations but this one didn't match any...." Chirhiro sees iot too.. Byakuya moves thing along. "Well. Are we going to see what it says?" He adjust his glasses and crosses his arms. He then looks at me. I feel a chill down my spine it's not fear...

"O-of course!!" I quickly flip a picture of the message. As you expected, the killers name was clear.... "Leon?..." Hinma looks at Leon in disbelief. "Was it really you?" He was scared stiff. 

"That's ridiculous! The killer is obviously framing me! YOU HAVE NO EVIDENCE!! ASk WHERE KAYA WAS LAST NIGHT SHE PROBERLY KILLED MAIZONO!!!" Suddenly I had all eyes on me.... My heart raced on and on. He's trying to get me killed but I'm not letting him do this. " Okay you say it was me, I killed Maizono. If I did kill Maizono how would I get rid of the evidence Leon, Cause I know you have a really good shot at aiming from baseball. So you could easily use a glass ball to get into the trash compartment area to get rid of a bloody jacket that was evidence to shown  that you killed Maizono!!!!"

"STUPID! STUPID! STUPID! YOU'RE ALL STUPID!!!" H e snapped. He screams and points at everyone, at me for the longest. I felt pretty upset seeing one of my friends like this.... but you have no choice.

"It can only be you." I sadly pointed to the red haired baseball star. "Leon Kuwata..." Wait .... He's tearing up. "We are done then we know Leon Kuwata Murdered Sayaka Maizono." Byakuya looks down. The fact that our friend murdered another and took a toll on all of us. We wanted No I wanted to refuse but... There is the the proof, right in front of us. A crying Leon Kuwata.... I couldn't take it anymore. I ran to his stand and hugged him.

"Why are you hugging me?? I'm a MONSTER!!" He tries to push me away, but I just kept hugging tighter. "No ... I... Iunderstand. It's not your fault..." Almost everyone wqas crying at my heartwarming actions.

"BLEH!!!! Heartwarming actions?!?! THAT'S A BIG NO NO!!! Oh well. It's time to vote!!!" Monokuma is out to stop you.

There is a part two so keep an eye out
