THE FOURTH TRIAL
(~SK. 24-25)
[There's no announcement informing the Strangers to come into the theater. There is only the sound of the doors opening, beckoning those left to come inside. It's best not to tarry-really, do you want to know what happens if they refuse to go to the trial?
When they enter the theater, it's...different. Sort of. Maybe it's because the area where the podiums are covered in donuts (and yes, Roland will see the little white animals pop over and pinch a few off the top). Maybe it's the fact that more spaces are draped in black. Maybe it's the fact that Zack's podium is also missing from where it sat, leaving nothing but donuts-in fact, that's where the primary pile of donuts are. Digging through that pile will only yield donuts, and nothing more.
(Some of the animals try to approach Akane. They disintegrate before they get two steps. Apparently they're better off eating the donuts.)
But-most of all-it's the fact that Zero is not on the screens that pop out through the theater. There's nothing but static. And while the curtains are closed, you know you are being watched regardless.
Uh. So. Maybe it's not worth waiting for Zero on this.

I won't be around to explain myself.
It will be.

Just remember the promise you made to me: don't let this be as much of a waste as all the other deaths so far.
no subject
But notice how nobody's actually confessed.

Should've checked the upper body from the first, really.

This isn't what you're looking for, though. Just a consequence of the attempt.

The area's already starting to get infected. ]

I shot Zack in the head.
He came back to fucking life and knocked me out.
Watch that body. I don't truly believe he's dead for good.

...Not that I guess it'll matter.

[ Of course there'd been things he didn't know regarding the full extent of their conversation. ]
What is it the two of you are even trying to accomplish here?

[ A deep breath. Then exhale. ]
I suppose with how many times you must have been through this, little must phase you at this point.

She's already on the ground, so she doesn't have far to fall, but fall she does. Her fever is burning bright once more.]
