Shuichi Saihara, Ultimate detective.
Kokichi Oma, Ultimate supreme leader.
And Monokuma, the ultimate....pain.
It was Monokuma who managed to lock him and Kokichi in this room in the first place. Probably just to annoy the hell out of him. Or force...
"Kaito! I'm so sorry!" Maki said frantically, helping Kaito up from the floor. Kaito then got to his feet and started laughing. "Na, it's my fault, I should of learnt not to scare you like that." Kaito declared. Maki rolled her eyes.
"Anyways Maki roll, I'm looking for Shuichi. You seen him?" Kaito continued.
"He's in Kokichi's room." Maki stated, calmly.
"OH..uh right!" Kaito defended, "I shouldn't disturb them?"
"No, I wouldn't if I were you." Maki shrugged.
The pair stood around awkwardly for a few moments before Kaito finally broke the silence. "They really are happy huh?, who'd of thought it?"
"Not me." Maki replied.
"Oh come on Maki roll, it'll all be fine." Kaito sighed, wrapping his arm around her.
A few hours later, everyone had gathered outside the entrance of the class trial. Shuichi knew who killed Miu and just had to make everyone else agree and understand. It was going to be tough but he knew that he had Kokichi by his side.
The red doors opened and everyone stepped inside. The elevator started to go down gradually and Kokichi subtly held Shuichi's hand tightly, reassuring him everything would be alright.
The lift came to a stop and Kokichi let go of Shuichi's hand. It was time. They each took to their own podium and prepared for the class trial.
"Start the class trial everyone! You all remember the rules!" Monokuma chimed, sitting on his throne.
Everyone nodded and Shuichi prepared his notes on the case and started to clear his throat, "Shall we start?" Shuichi declared.
"Yes we shall." K1-BO agreed.
"Right, so what shall we start with?" Tsumugi smiled.
"I think we should start with declaring the obvious, the cause of death and the time of death." Shuichi shrugged, trying to take control.
"I think that is wise." K1-BO agreed.
Shuichi flicked to the correct page in his notes and started to explain the case.

"Miu Iruma was found in the computer room on the 4th floor, she was strangled to death at approximately 6:30." Shuichi spoke clearly, "Her cause of death was definitely strangulation and there are no other external wounds on the body."
"Does everyone agree?" Shuichi asked.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"We should move onto alibis." Maki said coldly, "Lets start with you, Kokichi."
Shuichi's eyes flashed open and stared at Maki, she obviously had no idea what she had accidentally done to Kokichi.
As soon as Maki realised, she stared at Shuichi trying to apologise. Shuichi just fake-smiled and shrugged back. "Where were you Kokichi?" K1-BO said doubtfully.
Kokichi stuttered then looked towards Shuichi for support. When he looked over at him however, Shuichi was visibly shaking but was trying to control his nerves.
"Yeah, where we you?" Tsumugi asked innocently.
Kokichi took a deep breath and cleared his throat. "I was...."
"I was..."
"Come on Kokichi just say it!" He told himself over and over again.
"He was with me." Shuichi said loudly and clearly, "He was with me all afternoon."
"With you? Why would he be with you?" K1-BO demanded, "It makes NO sense!"
Kokichi decided he was going to be the one to tell. Shuichi had made the first move on many occasions but Kokichi never had enough courage to do it or say something first.
"Me and Shuichi are dating." Kokichi answered, trying to sound as confident as he could despite him being extremely nervous.
"What? That's got to be a joke." Tsumugi laughed, thinking it was a joke.
"It's not a joke Tsumugi." Shuichi smiled.
"Me and Shuichi are together...and I..." Kokichi stuttered.
"I love him" was what Kokichi wanted to say but was unable to say the words out loud...
