“Soo…” A voice broke through the silence, which was Urkstin’s, who sounded like he was trying his best, “I think we should get to know each other better!”
“I don’t think that’s necessary.” Mia said, eating her breakfast while looking at the table. “That could just get us attached to each other.”
“Well, if we get to know each other better, wouldn’t that make us
Our footsteps echoed through the hallway as we walked, as a question popped into my head for Urkstin. Unfortunately, Akira beat me to it and asked for me.“You seem really excited for an art room, Urkstin.” She commented, catching her breath after running to catch up.“Well duh! I wanna paint!”“Do yo
I finally made my way into the cafeteria, and just as she had claimed previously, Mia was still in there, eating some more food and looking down to the ground. I made my way over to her, and sat down across from her, before starting to talk.“Sooo, what have you been up to?” I asked, trying to start a decent conversation with her.“Sitting here.” She responded, a hint of wit and sarcasm in her tone.
Who did I want to spend time with next?. . .After another quick round of thinking, my thoughts eventually landed on Urkstin, who must have been busy still painting his masterpiece. I picked myself up, grabbed another cup of coffee, and headed out of the cafeteria, heading for the art room.Once I made it there
Once Urkstin and I had finished our paintings,I suggested getting something to eat, since it was getting close to nighttime based on my own hunger. We both agreed and made our way to the cafeteria together. Once we arrived there, I was surprised to see a lack of people there, and a quick glance at the clock told me why no one was there.“Oh shit, it’s already almost nighttime.” I called out, causing the both of us to grab our food and rush back towards the cell block. We both said our goodnights as we entered the block, and split off to enter our own cells. I walked into my own, and sat down at my desk,
Surprisingly, there was another person who looked worried about the topic of memories.Risawas over at her own table, shaking and staring blankly at her food. She looked worried, and scared. I wanted to go over and talk to her, but Poppy chimed in for the conversation topic.“I’ll start then! My favorite memory as a lil’ kiddy was probably when
“Women? As in, multiple?” My very stupid sounding question got a small chuckle out of Liam, before he continued.“Ah, yes, I did not mention this previously. I was raised by two very capable mothers, who loved me almost as much as each other.” He explained, smiling more as I finished my bandaging job.“Were they given a sperm donation to have you?” I continued my questions, putting away the bandages and taki
Once Akira and I had finished up our story sharing, we both headed into the cafeteria together, and once inside, I realized that we only had a couple more minutes before nighttime started. Knowing that, I grabbed myself three more cups of coffee, and Akira grabbed herself some snacks, and we dragged ourselves back over to the cell block, balancing the three cups in my arms, and multiple plates of food in hers.Once inside the cell block, we said our goodnights, as I rushed up to my room, and went into my cell, shocked to see Poppy in there. She was sitting on the bed, waiting for me.
……... My body…it feels...comfortable.My eyes open slowly, and a voice calls out to me from my left.“Geez, you actually fell asleep? You really need to get more sleep Aka.” Their
With that, we all exited the cafeteria, with me leading the way as usual. Most of the team followed, while people like chefs and most of the cleaning crew stayed behind to clean up everything so that no evidence would be left behind. Amber was the only exception, following us as I needed her to clean up specific areas.As we neared the crossroads for the different hallways, I made sure to inquire about something important to her.“Yo, Amber, you made sure you guys cleaned all of thefingerprints
…The hallways were finally silent.The only thing I could hear were my own footsteps, as I made my way through his familiar prison, on my way to the cafeteria.I was trying to keep my composure, walking in stride, and proper composition, but occasionally a small snicker or bounce escaped me as I neared the room closer and closer, thinking back on everything that had happened. Turning the corner, I could see the door to the cafeteria, and felt my excitement growing exponentially.&n
“...Congratulations!” The Loudspeaker called out in celebration,“You voted incorrectly!”… …
“I think that I might have theone piece of evidencewe need to convictour culprit.” I responded, feeling a sudden boost in confidence as the words started to form in my head, and the face of a culprit started to come into view. All we needed was one more push, and I had it.“Please do tell then.” Liam allowed, sounding a bit worried and excited at th
“Are you saying that she…sacrificed herselfto let us progress?” Urkstin questioned, seeming to get increasingly upset at the idea. Personally I was feeling the same way, but for a much different reason.“That… would explain why the handwriting does not match.” Liam responded, solemnly. Everyone seemed to be getting on board with the idea, which just infuriated me more, to the point where I couldn’t hold back.“B
“That means that it must be one of the two who were out during that period, which would beyou two.” Liam spoke, pointing at bothMia and Akira.… …… …Once again, the room fell silent, with a new ominous aura looming ove
“However, this also brings with ittroubling news.” Liam spoke, readying himself for this next phase of the trial.“Troubling? How so?” Akira asked. I most likely knew where Liam was going with this, but let him speak in his own words first.“Well, the more uplifting news is that we now have a
"Akira and I discovered somethin’ a bitstrange.”“Strange how so?” Liam prompted me to answer, while Akira sat back and let me explain away.“Well, this might sound a little gross, but I noticed somethin’ strange inside of Aka’s mouth, so I had Akira put a finger in there to find out what it was.” I explained, getting some varied looks from everyone in the room.
"I was looking for aweapon.” Mia responded, getting some questionable glares from her answer as to why she went towards the bathrooms, “Alongside that, I saw Natsumi heading down the bathrooms’ hallway at10:15 PM, so I followed her at10:20 PMand after seeing her in the bathrooms, got myself a weapon from ther
