Barely a day after the last murder and two more innocents were snatched away. How long will it stay hidden for?

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Jay didn't really do anything. Their hood was still up and they had their eyes closed. Daiko was glaring at Akira the entire time they were in the elevator.

"I don't know why I have to be here." Jay mumbled.

"Because we all do, nobody particularly likes it." Jeff shrugged.

Ray stayed silent, a relieved smile on his face as if to say 'I'm finally free'. That's when the elevator dinged and the doors opened. Jay sighed and didn't respond, just staring at their feet. Ray walked out first, confidence in his every step.

"Welcome to the third class trial!" Monokuma grinned as everyone walked to their podiums.

Jay sighed and walked to their podium, though they walked as slowly as possible.

"Right." Stevie clapped her hands together,"Let's start."

Jay continued to stare at their feet and viscously deny reality in their head.

"Alrighty... So who wants to start throwing accusations before I do the whole thing that I do again?" Ray asked with a smug grin.

"Akira." Daiko pointed,"Fire's your whole deal."

There was no response from Akira or Jay, who just stared at their feet, not wanting to be there.

"Bzzzt, wrong!"

"Well, am aw oot of ideas." Scott shrugged.

Jay kept their focus on their feet.

"Well, Ray, you have the floor, sir." Jeff told him.

"Okay, I'll give you a bit of a hint. Ash, Kirari wanted to apologize for not being with you. Daiko, your sister's last words were 'Fuck you, Ray'." Ray let out a twisted chuckle.

"Este maldito idiota ha deletreado su muerto en last estrellas!" Jay yelled, trembling.

Daiko's eyes widened,"You... You bastard!"

"IN-FUCKING-DEED DAIKO!" Ray burst into laughter.

Jay clenched their fists, trembling. Their eyes were blazing and suspiciously shiny, presumably with years. Akira was shaking, covering her ears as Stevie looked at Ray, the feeling of betrayal clear on her face.

"Kirari even told me to kill her with a table like, who the fuck does she think she is? I meant, was. Get it? 'Cuz I killed her? Anyway..." Ray took a breather.

"Voy a matar a este bastardo. Déjame matar a este bastardo." Jay pointed.

"And here's the best part, I got to do the evil monologue shit! But bro, the look on Teri and Akira's faces when I threw that damn poisonous dagger." He wheezed, tears of laughter coming out,"Priceless."

"I HOPE YOU DIE ALONE AND AFRAID IN A GODDAMN HOLE!" Jay shouted.

"Stop talking." Stevie shook her head.

"Oh, Jay, it'll probably be much worse than that. Monokuma's probably going to hang me because that's how I killed my victims or something ironic like that." Ray chuckled.

"KILL THIS SADISTIC BITCH! KILL HIM!" Jay was screaming at the top of their lungs.

"Ray...?" Stevie looked up at him.

"Check your desk after the trial." Ray whispered to her softly before turning back to the others in his crazed state,"Jay, you wanna know more? Teri's last moments were filled with pure suffering, I picked the most brutal suffering! Even now, in the grave, she must be rolling. But of course, you must not care. You did scream at her, after all."

¡Mátalo! ¡Llamo a la muerte! ¡Él merece la muerte por lo que ha hecho! ¡Mátalo, maldita sea! ¡MonoBear, haz una cosa bien en tu maldita vida y mátalo!" Jay was getting louder by the second.

"I speak French, not Spanish. Anyone care to translate?" Ray looked around.

"¡Vete a la mierda tú y toda Tu familia!"

"What...?" Ray blinked.

Jay pulled out her pocket dictionary threw it at Ray, yelling,"¡Veta a la mierda!"

"My family burns?" Ray raised a brow,"No... Only Akira's does that!"

Jay hurled more and more threats in Spanish at Ray, slowly breaking down.

"Tú la mataste..." Jay sobbed, trembling.

Their throat was dry and tears poured down their cheeks.

"Nunca te perdonare."

"Don't understand what that meant but ouch. Sucks to suck, doesn't it?" Ray smirked smugly, arms crossed.

Jay angrily rubbed their eyes, Akira was hidden behind Stevie and Daiko slowly stepped away from his podium, lunging at Ray who sidestepped his attack, starting to laugh maniacally.

"¿Podemos quemarlo vivo?" Jay called to Monokuma, clearing their throat,"Can we burn him alive? Por favor?"

Jay then continued to shout in Spanish at Ray before grabbing a match, lighting it, panicking for a second before getting ahold of themselve and throwing it at Ray.

Ray sidestepped again, yawning,"This is getting a tad bit old."

Daiko pulled himself off the ground, the match landing right in front of him.

"I don't recommend trying to fight me or you'll end up like Teri and Kirari." Ray hummed.

"Muere, perra." Jay cursed,"¡ME GUSTARÍA, PROBAR!"

"Take their names out of your dirty mouth!" Daiko pointed at Ray.

Jay continued shouting and cursing at Ray in Spanish until Monokuma stopped them.

"I'd say it's voting time!" Monokuma announced, the voting tablets appearing.

"Calm down, Tortilla." Ray hissed before shaking his head,"Alright, before you all vote and kill me, I have a few words."

"Me niego a escuchar tus ùltimas palabras. No." Jay spoke, turning their back on Ray and putting on their headphones.

"My last words are that I love you, Stevie, though I doubt you share the same feelings. Heh, this school's name is quite ironic. They claim to be full of hope but no. Perhaps it is because Hope is the new Despair." Ray winked.

"And... The votes are in! Though it wasn't unanimous. Voting for yourself, Stevie, was noble but completely stupid!" Monokuma announced.

Jay took out their headphones,"Can you burn him? Or drown him? Either one is fine, as long as it involves a lot of pain and panic."

"Relax, I'm getting to it. Ahem! I have an extra special punishment prepared for the Ultimate Crime Boss, Ray Luciano! It's... Punishment Time!"

"Can we watch?" Jay asked.

"Yes, I love death." Ray cheered.

A metal chain grabbed Ray by the neck and dragged him off while most looked on eagerly.

"Au- revoir!" Ray chocked out.

"Adois, perra." Jay waved.

Ray was dragged to what seemed like a street and he could see a familiar shadow walking by... Isabelle?

"Oh, shit... Here we go." Ray murmured.

It seemed like another person was following her, someone with a gun. Jay then shoved their hands in their pockets and watched eagerly.

"Goddamnit.." Ray hissed, knowing it wasn't actually his sister but he ran towards the gunman anyway, assuming they were going to hurt her.

It seemed like a maze of alleyways, Isabelle just out of reach.

"NO!" Ray kept running, not giving up hope.

"I am satisfied." Jay gave a small nod of approval.

Eventually he reached her, standing at a dead end and a magnifying glass in her hand.

"Isabelle, are you alright?" Ray asked.

"You're too late, Ray. We're all Ray."

Jay watched with a guarded, unreadable expression.

"No... That can't be true. You're not even here... Are you? Isa?" Ray asked, desperately grasping at logic.

"They knew I was onto them and now I'm dead." Isabelle turned, a gunshot wound in her chest.

Jay waited for his reaction.

Ray chuckled hopelessly,"Well played, Bitch Bear. Now then, where is the rope you're going to hang me from? Where's the gun you're gonna shoot me with? Hm?"

As if on cue, a gun fired at him. The masked shooter walking past and staring at him. Curiousity flitted across Jay's gaze.

"Finally freedom... Glorious freedom." Ray sighed.

The figure removed their mask and... Stevie was stood there.

"Let me die, Monokuma. I know it's you." Ray shook his head as tears flowed from his eyes and blood from his mouth and stomach.

Nothing. She just stared at him, tossing the gun to the ground. Ray slowly closed his eyes, a light smile on his face.

"Don't you love it when the person who betrayed you pays for what they've done?" Daiko turned to Jay.

Jay didn't say anything, just watched.

"Alright, good talk." He nodded slowly.

Jay scowled at Monokuma,"I thought your stupid disease was supposed to wear off."

"It did, I removed it as soon as your girlfriend got stabbed." Monokuma shrugged.

"I'm too tired to be embarrassed right now." They sighed.

"Go on then, get to bed." Monokuma urged them.

Jay rolled their eyes,"Fine."

The elevator ride was quiet, tense.
