(A/N: I have writer's block for Part 03, so I took a temporary break because I wanted to write this scene really badly...)
"...Never have I ever... gotten drunk before?" Ashley asked tentatively. "I couldn't think of anything else..."
There was a slow pause before everyone except Steven raised their hands.
"What? I'm the only one besides Ashley who's never done that?" Steven asked, a little shocked.
"I'm surprised Seto's gotten drunk before," Mitch pointed out.
"Yeah, you don't seem like the type to drink..." Husky said.
"It was the first and last time I ever decided to drink alcohol," Seto admitted. "It's just not for me."

(A/N: First of all, sorry for the super long wait. School sucks. But I finished this chapter sooner than I expected.)
(Second of all, I ADDED A NEW PROLOGUE TO THE STORY YOU SHOULD REALLY READ THAT IT'S KIND OF SUPER DUPER IMPORTANT JUST SAYING.)
(Third of all, I added youtube links to the execution songs I mixed together (I just used existing music from DR but yeah), so if you go to the execution chapters you'll see them)

Nothing I Wouldn't Do
"Seto, why do you have claw marks on your face?" Steven asked, horrified.
"I-Isn't it obvious?!" Ryan shouted, clenching his fists. "Jerome must have attacked him in self-defense! That's the only way he could have gotten those marks! Regular fingernails wouldn't do that!"
"But how come we didn't see them earlier?" Husky questioned. "How come we're only seeing them now?"
"Maybe he tried to hide the marks using his magic, but the spell unfortunately wore off..." Jordan mused, stroking his chin thoughtfully.
"Last time MonoWither made Seto take a pill to weaken his magic, right? Maybe MonoWither gave him one before this tr

Pointing Fingers
"So... where do we start?" Ashley asked after a few seconds of silence. "Has anyone found any important clues? Because no one on the first floor found any..."
"Why don't we start with a certain letter we found in Jerome's pocket?" Ryan asked, something dangerously flashing in his blue eyes. "Seto? You have it, right?"
Seto sighed as he gingerly pulled out the piece of paper, taking great care not to tear it. He read it aloud once again, this time to the 11 remaining participants in the courtroom.
Jerome,
Read this letter alone in your room and make sure that the camera can't see what I've written here.
I wrote this letter i

Thicker than Water
At first glance, Jerome was a fearsome bacca to behold. He towered over everyone, intimidating those who didn't know him with his muscular figure. However, underneath all that was a heart of gold. His smile, although baring large fangs, was always friendly. Jerome had been loyal and always wanted to protect his friends and family. To see him like this... Dead and lifeless...
Murdered and betrayed...
Seto's heart dropped the moment he heard the announcement. So Ryan had bee
