Danganronpa V3: Redemption Game With Shindo

(One more because why not) (for this one the culprit and victim is different) (spoilers for chapter two of the fan game Danganronpa Redemption)

Everyone stands at their podium. The look on Shindo's face says it all. It's a look of utter despair. Rantaro sighed deeply as everyone struggled to stay strong with the one that had guided them so intensely through the game to seeing his spirit absolutely crushed.

The victims are Kokichi and Mukuro. It's up to Rantaro now. He's the only one left that can even remotely hold Shindo back if they choose violence. Kaede is in tears, but she feel's determined to at least bring Shindo some justice, but she looks worried and confused.

"Hey. I know this is bad. But I want to bring you justice for what happened to Kokichi. Just know that he's not dead. He's out there as his old self... so even though it's not much comfort... it's something." Kaede tells him.

Shindo just stares blankly into space crying and Kaede looked away holding her arm trying to not cry too.

"You're doing good Kaede. Let's just keep fighting..." Rantaro tells her softly.

Kaede just sighed deeply, "We can't let the culprit get away with this! I won't accept their victory! So please! I know we all hate it. I hate it too! Let's find the culprit... and afterwards...." Kaede sighed.

The gang looks depressed, "Well... we'll discuss that later." Kaede sighed.

"I'll start us off with what I know." Rantaro sighed as he explained how the twins fought each other and how Mukuro took Kokichi to his dorm or so he thought.

Rantaro explained how he followed Shindo up to the data center after they were stopped by Monokuma from checking up on Kokichi by lock picking his door. When they got there no one was there. Shindo was sure there must be someone in the hatch. Rantaro left to look for something to lift it up. When he came back Mukuro was trying to kill Shindo. Rantaro explained he knocked her out.

As they were going to bring Mukuro downstairs and have her tied up. Shindo found Kokichi's dead body. In a fit of rage Shindo stabbed Mukuro killing her. Rantaro tried to stop him, but it was too late. He managed to drag a very angry Shindo back to his dorm, where Kaede saw them. Eventually Shindo calmed down and his trauma response kicked in. Rantaro deeply blushed and looks regretful.

"I didn't resist him that time. He was already hurting so bad... That... I just wanted to comfort him. It was probably wrong of me, but... He just lost someone he loved... I just wanted him to know... I... I love him too." Rantaro thinks.

"Anyways you know the rest." Rantaro sighed.

"No... if Shindo killed Mukuro than he'll be executed." Kaede cried.

"But wait... this sounds like there's two killers instead of one. One being Mukuro and the other Shindo... are they both the blackened?" Kaito asked confused.

"It's first come! First serve. Don't any of you read the handbook?" Monokuma roared.

"Uh... it's not in the handbook." Chihiro explained.

"What?!? Surely you jest and pull my leg." Monokuma exclaimed.

Chihiro reads off the rules, which Kaede notices that no lock picking isn't on there, "Opps. I'm such a klutz. You'll have to excuse this bear. I've been a bit off my game since dealing with the corruption. There we go. It's added." Monokuma explains, "In the event of two killer. The first body found will be the only one you need to worry about. The second body and killer are basically free game or pointless. No execution, no graduation, and no trial for them understand?" Monokuma asked and they all nodded.
