Chapter 14: Breakdown
The trial room was silent yet again. "Crap." I sighed.
"Wait..." Ian muttered. "Rianna could've pushed the cart right? She was an accomplice..."
Seto nodded. "Yeah, that's probably right."
"So it wouldn't be Jerome then?" Brice asked.
"But who would the culprit be then?" Tyler asked. "If it isn't Jerome..."
"Maybe we should go over everything again?" Adam asked. "Then we may find something."
"Ok so they both died from head wounds." Quentin started.
"The weapons were iron ingots." Seto stated.
"Rianna was the accomplice." Brice continued. "And hid Simons body."
"I didn't murder them." Jerome smiled.
"The culprit must've fumbled somewhere." I sighed.
"Such a cunning plan... I doubt the culprit would make any mistakes." Adam pointed out.
Did someone say anything earlier?
Think back...
Think back...
-FLASHBACK THINGER-
We went to the emergency room and heard crying. I looked in and gasped. "Where's Ris body?!"
"W-well me and T-Tyler went to the w-washroom and when w-we came back R-Riannas body was g-gone!" Brice chocked out.
"Yeah." Tyler nodded.
"How the crap can a dead body just vanish?" Adam asked.
"Magic maybe?" Mitch asked.
Everyone turned to Seto. "It wasn't me!" He protested. "Most of my magics drained anyways! And a teleportation spell for a dead person? Sorry, that's a waste of time!"
Tyler sighed and a look of sorrow clouded his face. "Soon we will all be dead... Just like they were..."
My eyes widened. "We've been down here for a little while... Could Simons body be missing too?"
"Oh shit." Ian muttered.
"Wait, Simon died?" Brice gasped. "Tyler's right... We are g-gonna die l-l-like they d-did!"
-FLASHBACK OVERERER-
"Tyler... Could you repeat what you said when Rianna left the emergency room?" I asked.
"I think I said, Soon we will all be dead... Just like they were..." Tyler replied. "Does that sound right?"
Some people gasped, while some widened their eyes. I looked up at Tyler. "Tyler, how did you know that multiple people were dead before we told you Simon was dead?"
Tyler stared at me. "You have a huge imagination Jason..."
"Oh, do I?" I asked. "And Tyler... Why are you talking so much during this trial? You're trying to turn most of the evidence into dust."
Tyler blinked a few times. "I don't understand."
Everyone was now staring at Tyler. "Tyler, you usually talk only once or twice during a trial... And you're the person talking most of the time in this trial." I pointed out.
"It seems like you're trying to turn me into the villain here." Tyler sighed then snapped. "YOU FRICKING IMBASOLE!!! YOU ARE VERY DAMN MISTAKEN!!!"
"T-Tyler?" Brice asked.
"RIANNA SAID IRON BEFORE SHE DIED!!!" Tyler screamed. "AND WE FOUND JEROME IN THE IRON GOLEM SUIT! SO THAT MEANS IT WOULD BE JEROME!!!"
"But Tyler... That's some of the only info that makes sense!" I protested.
"THEN THE INGOTS MENT NOTHING?! JEROME MUSTVE USED THEM TO KILL RIANNA AND SIMON AND TO ATTACK ME!!!" Tyler clenched his pedestal.
"Why did you talk so much during this trial?" I challenged.
"BECAUSE YOU RETARDS ARE SO FRICKING DUMB SO I FOUND MOST OF THE EVIDENCE!!!" Tyler fumed.
"Or was it because you committed the murder?!" I narrowed my eyes at him.
Tyler glared at me and breathed heavily. "Tyler..." I stated. "It's over."
Tyler blinked a few times and his expression changed. It was now... Calm. "So... Tyler..." I bit my lip. "Are you gonna confess?"
Tyler's mouth curved into a slight smile and nodded. "Y-you really?" Brice asked.
"Yep! It was all me!" Tyler smiled. "I thought I finally had a shot, y'know?"
Then he looked at the ground and muttered, "And also the money was tempting..."
"Why did you do it?" Mitch asked.
"One, I wanted the money. Two, I need to get outta this place." Tyler replied. "But don't flip! I'm ready for my punishment!"
We all stared at him. "R-ready?" Adam stuttered.
"Mhm." Tyler nodded. "I never really had the best life, so I'm ready to be reborn."
"But wait... One question..." Bash asked. "Why was the body announcement only played once when two bodies were found?"
"Didn't we already make this clear?" Seto replied. "Ri wasn't dead the first time we saw her, Simon was."
The trial room was silent. "Welp, looks like you found the killer, let's vote!" Herobrine commanded.
We voted and pressed the voting button. The casino slots appeared for the third time and Tyler's face shown up three times. "Congrats for getting it right once again!" Herobrine smiled. "The person who killed Simon and tricked Rianna is... Tyler Christie!"
Tyler had a slight smile on. "I guess you may wanna know what I did to do this. Well Rianna overheard me talking to myself and came in and asked, can I help? I said sure. But I knew she was up to something. She was probably gonna accuse me at this trial."
"Why probably?" Quentin asked.
"Eh, I dunno." Tyler shrugged. "I'm just assuming y'know."
The trial room was silent yet again. But then Tyler frowned a bit. "But now... Now I... I just... I shouldn't have done it... I... I'm regretting it all..."
He took a deep breath and continued, "Rianna didn't deserve this... Of course, Simon didn't either..." Tyler turned to Ian. "You were right Ian... Human lives can't be bought with money... Greed... That's what got the best of me... I... I can't..."
Tyler slumped a bit. "But... Now all of this is over." He smiled a tiny bit. "I can forget about all this and get reborn... And maybe... Just maybe... We'll see each other in our next lives. We are in Minecraftia after all... We usually can get reborn right?"
I was starting to tear up. They way that he was trying to cover his sadness and despair. It was... It was... Hope. "Herobrine?" Tyler looked up at the white eyed man. "Could we... We... Start please?"
"Hm?" Herobrine sat up. "Ok then... It's time for the highly anticipated... Punishment time!"
He laughed hysterically and pushed the button. The usual screen shown up with Tyler getting dragged away by Herobrine.
-Pissed Pandas-
Tyler stood in the centre of the execution room thingy. There were tons of closed iron doors scattered throughout the walls. A podium with an iron sword rose up in front of Tyler. Tyler took the sword and waited for the punishment to begin.
All the doors opened and pandas came out. The saw Tyler with the sword and freaked out. A bigger podium with weapons on it rose in front of the pandas. The pandas looked at it curiously, grabbed the weapons and raced toward Tyler.
Tyler dodged most of the attacks and killed a few pandas in the process. Then his sword started to crack very slowly. He didn't notice at first, but when he did his eyes widened.
Tyler jumped onto the podium that had the sword on it. The blade snapped, flung away from him and wiped out a few pandas in the process. The pandas surrounded him and raised their weapons.
Tyler covered his head, closed his eyes and braced for impact but nothing happened. Everything went silent. He uncovered himself and opened his eyes. The pandas were all watching something in the distance.
There was a huge truck coming right for them. Tyler jumped off the podium and ran while he still had the chance. The truck followed him and he jumped to the side. The truck was green and had a bamboo symbol on the side. Makes sense.
Tyler ran to a corner and the truck raced towards him.
A crushing, splatting noise was heard.
Then all was silent.
-END-
"O-oh god..." Adam covered his mouth with his hands.
"Why pandas?" I asked.
Brice was in a mess, curled up on the floor. "N-n-no one can trust an-anyone an-an-anymore..."
Seto raced to Brices side. "Shh... You'll be fine... You'll be safe... I won't let anyone hurt you..."
Mitch looked uneasy and kept glancing at Seto. "That was actually really meaningful." Jerome murmured. "He regretted it."
