THE SECOND TRIAL

[Soon after the failed attempt to contact the dead, the tell-tale alarm suddenly rings out, rattling everyone's teeth alongside Marie's voice.]

ATTENTION! EMERGENCY ALERT! PLEASE GO TO THE ELEVATORS IMMEDIATELY!! HMHMHMMM! I WILL NEVER GET TIRED OF SAYING THAT...!

[And so, once again, the elevators bring everyone back down to the trial room, where the table has been...altered, slightly, color-wise, to reflect those who are no longer among you. And once more, upon entering the force field, weapons disappear - and powers fail to work.

Bottson hops up onto the center of the table, transmitting the evidence found.]

heRe yOU Are eVerYBOdy! THe sUsPECt lISt!



YoU cAN Do THiS!


[Above everyone once more is Marie, floating around in her hover platform.]

WELL, WELL! FANCY MEETING YOU ALL HERE AGAIN! I GUESS YOU ALL FAILED TO KEEP THAT GUY ALIVE, HUH?? AHAHAHA!!

WELL, LET'S SEE IF YOU CAN GET WHO DID IT THIS TIME, HMM??

Would such a hard kick definitely leave a bruise around your ankle or whatever?

[crouching_sin]

... Only if you're an idiot. And... fell, or something?

[fashionfever]

Are you an idiot like that?

SO.]

No. I wander around Tokyo on geta, do you think I'm that clumsy? I've climbed over forty flights of stairs in them.

[fashionfever]

Sounds like it would strengthen your legs...

[crouching_sin]

... To be fair I was also using magic. I do walk around Tokyo but I'm not very good at martial arts.
