Red POV:

I go back to the cafeteria as soon as everyone left. I tapped her shoulder and she jumped.

"Oh, it's j-just you Red. W-what are you doing h-here? Have a task?" Pink asks standing up.

"I'm just wondering if maybe we can do tasks together. So we both can have alibis and vouch for each other." I smile and she almost cried tears of happiness, as in almost, she did.

"That w-would be nice!" She jumped as we went to electrical. Where Lime died, a fellow crew mate. I saw her do some wires as I did my divert power.

"This is fun." She said without her stutter. We walked out of electrical to Navigation. She was doing her chart course and I just watched her. This was fun. Like she said.

"I'm almost done!" She said as red started flashing all over the ship. The Reactor was going off! I ran out of navigation without Pink as I rushed to reactor. I saw Black there at one of the sensors as I pressed the other one. Then I realized something.

I left Pink alone.

"I need to go!!" I yelled as I ran out.

"Not gonna lie, he's acting super sus."

I kept running until I tripped over a open vent in Cafeteria. I looked down it and I didn't see anyone, I didn't worry about it as I kept running to Navigation. When I entered, I didn't know what to say, this is what we should expect, but in this short amount of time...

Pink, was on the ground, task card in hand. Blood dragging toward the vent and a pool of blood around Pink's body. I screamed as soon as I saw it. I only left her for 15 seconds! How did someone walk into Navigation, kill Pink, and run away in the amount of time. I reported the body as soon as I could.

"Where?" Carrot asked.

"I-in Navigation..." I said looking down.

"Weren't you just in that place?" Yellow asked.

"I just left for 15 seconds to do Reactor, then, she's dead." I say, explaining it.

"Well, I think it's a self report, if it's not then how could the killer do the crime that fast, and get away without Red seeing them?" Purple asked.

"Yeah, Red has been sus this whole game." Black said.

"You just kept accusing me for no reason!" I yell at him as I know Black votes for me.

"It's the only evidence we have." Purple said about to vote but Yellow grabs her hand before she can vote.

"Wait, we can't just guess it's a self report, we need to go on the most suspicious suspect we have. And that's Carrot." Yellow pointed to him.

"What?! Why me!?" Carrot looked at Yellow, fear on his face.

"Because, you accused someone with a child, and, it wasn't them." Yellow voted for him.

"What!? No, it's most definitely Red! I wasn't even in Navigation this whole time!" Carrot was sweating.

"Your obviously lying." Yellow said as the votes for tallied.

Red - 2
Carrot - 3
Skip - 1

"No, no..." Carrot looked down and the figure appeared on the screen.

"Well! Looks like we have a vote! It's time for everyone's favorite time! Execution Time!!" The figure laughed as Carrot held onto the table as the outside doors were trying to suck him out. Yellow's eyebrows went down and he kicked his hands off from grip and Carrot was out in space.
