She was hugging herself, quivering like she was out in the cold. [color=#F08172]“I-I don't know if I can vote for him. Not without 100% certainty. Shaun could never have done this...”[/color] [color=lightblue] “I know how you must feel.”[/color] Jezebel said in a somber tone. [color=lightblue] “But I've been in too many of these killing games. It's... Hard to find people you can trust.”[/color] Jezebel shot Zachary and Braden a quick glance before looking into the middle of the court. She was thinking. Anyone who looked at the clown could tell the gears were turning. [color=lightblue] “We might not be able to prove what happened, but we can totally prove we [i]know[/i] what happened!”[/color] Jezebel flashed everyone with a glowing smile, and started to reconstruct the case. [color=lightblue] “During the past four days, the killer so discovered what the Betty known as Marianne had in her motive letter. So like, she shared her letter with a murderer, unaware of the grody consequences to come.”[/color] The clown started to juggle some arrows, a buzzer, Shaun's wallet, a syringe, a knife, some rope, and a knotted patient's gown. [color=lightblue] “Penis breath totally knew how to prepare. He so identified items that he could use and smuggled them into his room. This included Baldwin #1's arrows, the kitchen knife, rope, and all that other junk. His shady ass jacket made it tre easy to smuggle everything in there. The buzzer so came from Marianne herself. I gave her one fer shur!”[/color] Jezebel stopped juggling everything and took hold of the wallet. The sound of everything hitting the floor wouldn't stop her from going on. [color=lightblue] “But like, he so had to ditch the wallet. Without access to the crematorium, he so needed to ditch it in a place no one would ever look. So like, he left it with Parker, believing it would never be discovered.”[/color] The clown folded her arms and looked away from everyone. [color=lightblue] “With everything set, he was totally ready to kill. The Noid lured the Betty into his room, likely prepared to talk about her note. He knocked her out, tied her up, stabbed her to death, and hoisted her up into the air. He was so trying to make this look like a hate crime. Who would have thought Shaun could do something so grody? And the body was raised to keep it from burning, totally avoiding the defacing rule.”[/color] She pointed down at the floor where the hospital gown was. [color=lightblue] “Like, the hospital gown was used to keep the blood splatter from the stabbing off of him and junk. But barf-bag still wanted to destroy as much evidence as possible. Like he totally trashed his room, and set it ablaze. He so made sure the trickster note stayed in tact so that he could blame the crime on Zachary. Like, I'd so wager his note describes Zachary. Something like 'they're the #1 Baldwin' and junk. The fire suppression system would later create the smoke we saw.”[/color] Jezebel sighed. The clown leaned on her podium and kept her head propped up with both hands. She was still smiling. [color=lightblue] “But a trashed room is totally useless if you don't look like you've been attacked. So he had a quick conversation with Ice to give himself a bogus alibi before preparing to knock himself out. Like he ditched his E-handbook in the trash room and injected himself by the stairs. When he woke up, he followed Krista round like a puppy. This strengthened his alibi.”[/color] Jezebel's grin widened as she continued. [color=lightblue] “But like, our killer so didn't count on Ice investigating so thoroughly. He totally found that vault, and eventually the metal Betty known as Alice Parker. She so passed him the wallet, and Ice was able to identify Erin from the Ids. During the trial, he would hide this from us, trying to guide us to the killer without revealing his secret. But when that became impossible, he totally exposed himself to reveal the killer.”[/color] Yet another dive light activated, this time on Jezebel. She swiftly circled around to Shaun's position, running full tilt. As she passed him, she pulled off his scarf, revealing his twisted smile and scars. [color=lightblue] “That sound about right; Erin Steele: Infinite Trickster?”[/color] [hr][hr][center][h1] C A S E C L O S E D[/h1][/center][hr][hr] [color=#F08172]“It really is him... Alright.“[/color] Bliss dried her eyes before looking over towards Mary. [color=#F08172]“Y-you're right. We'll just vote for the person who murdered Shaun and Marianne.”[/color] [color=magenta]"Who will you all vote for? Will you make the right choice or the dreadfully wrong one?"[/color] Monokuma turned his head towards the carnage sisters. [color=magenta]"Girls! The machine!"[/color] After everyone had voted (Nariko collected the votes from those on the court floor) an air lotto machine emerged from the center of the floor. There were balls with every infinites face on them, floating around inside the strange machine. But one at a time, each tube opened up to capture one ball. All of which showed Erin's head. The machine beamed with ligh, shot off confetti, and did everything in it's power to simulate a small scale celebration. Then the room fell quiet, if only for a few seconds. [color=lightblue] “Hah, I knew it!”[/color] While most of the infinites were pretty glum, both tricksters looked pleased with themselves. Jezebel had returned to her podium and the dive light on her had vanished. [color=lightblue] “Your shy kid ruse totally didn't fool me.”[/color] She gave Erin a sideways glance. [color=lightblue] “As soon as I heard that I might not be the original trickster though, that piqued my interest. I thought I had so become an impostor. ”[/color] she giggled cutely. [color=lightblue] “But it totally doesn't matter if you're the original or not. You're so an imposter, just a fake. Your persona, your talent, it's all fake, so totally fake. I'm not sure anything that happens to you can even be considered an execution, because you so never existed to begin with.”[/color] She continued to grin at him. Nariko and Alexandria approached mercy while on horseback. [b] “Calvie-poo! You got hurt, you could have gotten booped by that huge chain!”[/b] Alexandria was looking directly at him. [b] “If you get booped, we'll never be able to have a future together!”[/b] Geina and Willow were also on horseback, but they rode their horses up behind Erin instead. Bliss seemed to have regained her composure, if just barely. [color=#F08172] “Did you even have a worthwhile reason to do all of this?”[/color]
