Execution 2 - Crystal

16 2 26
                                    

We all sat at a large poker table, surrounded by 16 seats, two large screens on each side..  each seat was 'reserved' for each student.. all but Chance, Hiyumi, Eric and Crystal sat  in their seats..

The room was bright, colourful.. Jumpy, upbeat jazz music playing. Large versions of poker cards and chips scattered around the room.
But most importantly. a giant roulette wheel stood tall by our little set up..

I peered up at the large screen.. only to see Crystal, Tied to the wheels topper with a tattered, blood stained rope. I wonder if they had been re used from a different game.... honestly that wouldn't surprise me the least-

Monokuma appeared on the screen. he was dressed in a fancy, blue suit, smoking a cigarette.

''Aaaalll-righty folks-! Ready for a bit of.. poker..''
There was the faint sound of Crystal, sobbing for help in the background of Monokuma's monologue...

''...anywaay-- just go ahead.. there's no point explaining the rules JUST GO FOR IT!'' monokuma began yelling, a desperate, needy tone to his voice.

Everyone went silent, hiding their decks..
we weren't going to gamble on our friends life...-

''There-!''

Everyone turned towards the voice..

Nicki had placed down a card....

''N-nicki... w-what have you--.'' Kai was interrupted by the sound of metal creaking.. almost like an old, rusty roundabout.. what is that..?

I peered up, over to the oversized roulette wheel. only to see it shift.. it was beginning to spin.

''YOU IDIOT- WHAT THE FUCK-!!'' Shin yelled at Nicki from across the table..

Just as she finished.. the wheel began to spin faster, Crystal's cries growing louder.
Kai had pushed some of his chips forward, and placed down a card.

we stared at him in disbelief..

''if there's a chance we can save her.. we may as well take it.'' he seemed serious about this.
and soon after, multiple people began placing down cards and pushing in chips.. and yet the wheel just got faster.. and faster.. and faster.
for each move people used up, the jazz music only got louder, more jumpy.. I could see everyone was struggling to think..

I took a deep breath.. closed my eyes.. and placed down a single card..

The spinning had stopped..

I could see the hope in a few peoples eyes grow.
Had we really saved her from the punishment??

I began to run towards the giant wheel. I just wanted to make sure she was alright.. but I stopped... my eyes filled with dread as I watched.

CRUSH

A white ball, three times as big as the wheel.. had fallen from nowhere.. and crushed our friend..

The entire room went silent.
