Chapter Text
“No, no, no, no.. it can’t be.. it can’t be Brooke.” Mae said as she looked at the dead body in-front of her.. lying in-front of her was Brooke lifeless body. “Mae.. calm down!” Ewok said.
“I can’t! I can’t.. Brookes dead.. I felt like I’m going to throw up.” Mae almost didn’t believe Brooke was dead, the person she was laughing and giggling too just yesterday is now dead in-front of her, it’s almost unreal. It doesn’t feel real.
“Mae! Snap out of it.. I know Brooke is dead but we have to get to main room before we’re dead too.” Yuni said to her.
Then the speaker went on, we all expected to get yelled at to come to the main room but it was different…
“Maybe.. we’ll help you guys this time. You guys get 3 minutes to examine the room, in person instead of your phones. Better get to it!” Chloe said before the speaker went out.
“You’re telling me.. we have to go in a room with a lifeless body? I mean.. it’s helpful to finding out who it is but damn is that gross.” Kio said.
“Bitch.. do you want to survive or not? Better get to looking..” Michelle said. (Michelle asked to be a mean girl so)
“Okay.. damn? I was just saying..” Kio replied back to her.
“Well, I’m afraid no one gives a shit so shut the hell up.” Michelle replied back more aggressively.
“What’s your problem..?” Kio started arguing.
“Guys, guys! We literally got a special chance to see the dead body for ourselves, please for the love of god. Stop fighting.” Mizi said.
“I agree, we have better problems to be worrying about.” Sol said, before walking into the room first, most of us followed and starting examining the room. There wasn’t anything that stood out to us, except for the smell of the corpse in the room we were in.
“The smell is bad and we can’t find shit! This is such a waste of time.” Runa said.
Most of us agreed and gave up.
“Guys.. I found this box.. I opened it and it had like this letter thingy.. but I don’t really know what is it.” Sen said. “Huh.. let’s see it.” Jello said. Sen added and showed everyone the letter.
“This doesn’t help either.. it just looks like some love letter.” Thile sighed.
While we were looking more closely at the letter, the speaker came on. “Times up! Hope you guys found something good. Report to the main room.” Chloe said.
We all walked out, finally happy we didn’t have to smell that horrid stench anymore. Mae was the last one to leave. We knew it was hard for her to lose Brooke but what could we do about it.. and we all know we’re probably gonna to lose someone important to us too.
As we made our way to the main room.. this time it wasn’t the usual silence and awkwardness after finding a dead body. It was actually people talking and interacting.. it was better to see then to constantly think about the current events going on.
“Guys.. I was able to print a photo of Kaiser.. I never been happier in my life. My king looks so gorgeous.. he’s so perfect and I couldn’t be any happier, I am truly the happiest boy in the world right now.” Isaiah said before pulling the piece of paper with Kaiser face on it and giving it a kiss.
“I can’t tell if this is real.. because what.” Quincy said.
“I wish you would kiss me like that Isaiah…” Prejoy said.
“I will.. come here.” Isaiah said.
“Woah.. guys! Let’s not do this in-front of everyone, alrighty? Wait until you get into the privacy of your rooms please!” Yuzu said.
“Yeah.. thank god I didn’t have to witness that.” Dawnn said before fake gagging.
Isaiah and Prejoy both rolled their eyes.
We spent time chatting some more, it was chaotic and honestly took us more time than usual to get to the main room because how crazy it was, but we finally made it after a few minutes and took our usual spots.
The big screen went on.
“Glad you guys finally made it! The trial will be starting now.. I hope the 3 minutes we gave you helped and if it didn’t.. well it truly sucks to be you guys, good luck!” Maddie said before the big screen turned off.
The timer for 1 hour and 30 minutes went on again..
“Soo.. guys are we doing the we have no evidence.. then we think it’s one person then someone magically finds out evidence about another person and we get it?” WillyOG asked.
“I guess so…” Yume said.
“Alright if we’re doing that.. then anyone have anything?” Lena said.
“No, I think we MIGHT actually be cooked this time.” Deren said.
“Uhhh.. Sen, how about that love letter you found! We can try putting clues together.” Maeno said.
“Yeah, I do. Here you go.” Sen headed the letter to Maeno.
The letter had a little dried blood on it.. so the possibility of the love letter being the murderers work was pretty high.
Mint who was right beside Maeno was looking at letter was looking as well. They both didn’t notice anything out of place.
“Nothing stands out to me sorry..” Maeno said. “Yeah same, it’s just.. a love letter??” Mint said.
“How about we pass it around, maybe something will see if anything’s up.” Max suggested and we agreed. We had the letter passed around and asked if we saw anything out of place each time, nothing good came out of the persons mouth..
“I do not notice a single thing..” Cely said.
“This sucks.. no matter how close I look it sucks.” Mich said.
“Maybe we should find something else out, this isn’t helping.” Monica said.
“I don’t notice anything either..” Kazu said.
“Me neither..” Val agreed.
“Me and Isaiah didn’t find out anything either.” Prejoy said.
“Me and Riya didn’t either.” WillyOG said.
“Hey, how about we make a theory?” Zoey said.
“How do theories help if it’s most likely not going to true, and what theories do we even make up?” Jun asked.
“Guys.. you know how it’s a love letter. Maybe it could be from Mae. Hear me out guys..” Hannah said.
“Wait, that actually makes sense because in the love letter it says how about the person is “sorry for all the things they did to the person”, the person who wrote it obviously is guilty and loves the person. Mae could’ve killed Brooke and felt guilty about killing her and made that love letter to her before she left.” Rosa said.
“And.. what happens if the person who wrote the love letter, isn’t talking about Brooke? And put in there to confuse us.” Sol said.
“I mean, who else would they be talking about? It’s in Brookes box and the person is talking about how they’re sorry. There’s literally no one else that fits that definition but Mae and Brooke.” Ciel explained.
“I agree, I mean if we used common sense it’s so painfully obvious they’re talking about Brooke.” Aki replied.
“G-Guys.. it’s not me. The person is just most likely just trying to frame me. It’s o-obvious to tell because of previous rounds.” Mae’s voice was low, it sounded muffled probably because all of the crying she did..
“I can believe her on that one, I have firsthand experience of getting framed not once but twice.” Jun said.
“Yeah, maybe it’s finally you.” Shu joked.
“Stfu and choke it isn’t me.” Jun replied.
“Alright.. so if it isn’t Mae, then who the fuck is it.” Yf asked.
“I’m sure we all wished we knew, but we’re either all not getting it.” Isaiah said.
“It’s definitely that we’re missing something, everyone murderer must have a small clue leading to them.. if it didn’t it was would be rigged.” Yuni said.
“I agree, but I genuinely do not know what the clue else and either do all of us. " Addison said.
"Guys.. Think outside the box. Were missing something.. " Rosa said.
The time reached 45 minutes.
We all spent time thinking.. Our minds were completely blank.
"I don't know if this really helps but uhm.. Sen where did u get that letter?" Prejoy asked.
"From the box... Obviously?" sen said.
"Oh yeah." Prejoy nervously laughed.
“Dumbass…” Isaiah said.
And almost every agreed.
“Wait guys.. Prejoy MIGHT be onto something.” Quincy said.
“You mean ON something??” Michelle replied.
“No, no, no, hear me out guys, the box Sen had it in was a safe.. with a padlock on it, how did Sen manage to find out the code to it?” Quincy Asked.
“It was left unlocked??” Sen said.
“Then how come no one else managed to open it before you.” Erin said.
“Maybe you guys are just slow..” Sen said.
“If we are apparently so slow.. then how come I wasn’t able to open it when I saw it?” Val asked..
“I don’t know..” Sen said.
“Yeah, I also saw that and wasn’t able to open it.” Bootytickler
“Maybe I was the chosen one!!” Sen said.
“I mean, I was by you and the first we passed by it, we couldn’t open it. Then you suddenly disappeared from next to me and opened it.” Cely said.
“Well.. i don’t know.” Sen explained.
“If it wasn’t left open, then how did you find out the password?” Thilme asked.
“I don’t know.” Sen said.
“Okay.. I think you’re the one.” Jun said.
“Wait, don’t vote me out!” Sen said.
“Why..?” Rosa asked.
“I will.. I WILL GIVE YOU ALL TICKLES, YAYY!!” Sen yelled.
Everyone cheered.
“I want tickles!!!!” Rayan said.
“ME FIRST! ME FIRST!” Willy said.
“ME, ME, ME, TICKLES!!!!!!!” Shu yelled.
“TICKLES WOOOOOO IM SO EXCITED!” Yuzu said.
15 minutes left..
“What the fuck, no! Sen killed Brooke, I’m not going to let her fucking go over some dumb tickles, tickle each other when Sen gets out!” Mae yelled.
“That was what I was thinking? Were we genuinely about to not vote Sen over stupid tickles, get a grip guys.” Yf agreed with Mae.
“Yeah, there right.. Sen you gotta go.” Mizi said.
“No, guys. It’s not me, I just said that as a joke and plus I don’t even know how the safe magically opened bruh.” Sen explained.
“I don’t think Sen would write a fake love letter to Brooke especially.” Mia said.
“I mean.. if it was to save my life I would write a fake love letter to someone I hated, or is it just me.” Mint said.
“I wouldn’t.. if someone put a gun to my head and told me you have to write a love letter to SLUG or die, I would rather die.” Jun said.
“Who’s slug?” Erin asked.
“I don’t know..” Jun said.
We all got startled and when the speaker came on… and we heard Maddie’s voice.
“Hello, Egoists! I hope you all managed to figure it out.. because.. it’s time to vote!” Maddie said.
“If you would, put out your phones and vote for someone that would be awesome! Thanks.” Maddie added before leaving.
We all took out our phones and voted on who we thought was the murderer. After 5 minutes Maddie came back on again.
“It was actually a lot of votes for 2 people.. the two people are Mae and Sen! But.. who got more?” Maddie asked.
“What the fuck, you guys voted me?” Mae said.
“The one that got more votes is…. Sen! But is it correct?” Maddie asked.
We were all nervous and waited for the answers that would determine our fate.
“It was correct, Sen was the murderer.” Maddie said.
We all felt a sign a relief and we were all allowed to leave.
“I didn’t believe it was Sen, honestly.” Isaiah said.
“What’s even crazier is that if Prejoy didn’t say what he said, we would’ve been cooked.” Mich said.
“Right? Let’s just be glad we live another day.” Ewok said.
We all agreed and headed to the cafeteria to eat.
They ate
Sen got shot
We cheered(maybe not Cely..)
It was nighttime and at this point we had to head to our rooms, everyday we would dread this time of day, it felt like hell honestly but we had not choice and that’s what sucked the most.
“Night guys, don’t let the bed bugs bite.” Willy said.
“What if the bed bugs do bite.. no what if it’s the murderer instead.” Aki said.
“Don’t let them get you..” Prejoy said.
“Don’t joke about that guys.. just go to sleep.” Val said.
“Alrighty, goodnight guys.” Yuzu said before heading to her room.
We all collectively said goodnight and headed to our rooms, we would also be praying that it isn’t us that’s next.
As the doors to our rooms locked and silence filled the halls.
……..the same footsteps going down the hall every night, the noise we hate the most, walking to the person there gonna call and back to there room.
Before we knew it, it was daytime, the doors unlocked and a lot of people surprisingly went out, but we couldn’t find the dead body. It was concerning because it wasn’t in any of the rooms, it wasn’t in any of the bedrooms.
In the cafeteria, you could see a line of trays, and someone’s body parts cut up and on it.
It was Lena.
The speaker came on.
“Wow, something different this time. How about.. we give you 5 minutes this time to check around. Good luck!”
The speaker went out.
