Day 4 --- 13:01 --- I'm Rooting For You, Red!

  "Red... Since it's break time, can I ask you something?" I looked up at the taller, rose-red clothed male beside me on the lunch table, his expression typically calm.

   I've always admired Red, his benevolence, his task management, and even his predictions. He might even be as good as Yellow!

   And that's why... I've developed a crush on him. We've known each other for so long, and we've always been helping each other out... But, I've never felt like this.

  "Yes, you can. What is it, Purple?" He leaned in, but enough for personal space and breathing.

  "Why are you on The Skeld? I thought you weren't interested in doing tasks and cooperating like this." I cocked my head to the side curiously.

   Before we arrived in The Skeld, Red wasn't all that much of an interactive person. He was basically an extroverted introvert. Back then, we talked a lot more. He was strangely close to me, such as giving me random hugs and constant gifts. Honestly, I was expecting him to get into some computer science, not to become a crewmate at The Skeld.

  "Hmm... Well for that question..." He looked away his sly smile suddenly fading. Did something happen?

  "I'm here for something good to put on my résumé. I want to get a good job that can support me and my finances well..." He explained, his eyes locked with mine. "But... I'm not entirely sure if this is enough."

  I shook my head. With his kind of expertise, he could become a detective like Yellow! "Don't let yourself down just like that, I'm rooting for you, Red!" I said optimistically.

  "You have amazing expertise and a calm mind, with that, you could get a great job!" I know my words may be small since I'm only one person... But I want to try and help him at least.

  He gave me a happier, sly smile, before giving me a small hug. "Thank you, your words mean a lot to me."

   If Red's happy, than I'm happy. I hope that my words were able to help him even in the slightest. After all, I care deeply about his well being...

   I hugged him back gently as to show I care for him, and I hope that he is okay. At this point, I don't think we're just friends anymore... We look like a couple!

  "We're sorry to interrupt you two, but..." Before I could take a glance at who it was, I felt Red release his grip on me and turn to the boyish voice.

  "What is it, Yellow? We're having a sentimental moment right now, y'know." He said, a calm smirk gracing his face.

  "Yellow and I are conducting interrogations at the moment. We ask for Purple's permission to interrogate her." Green answered for Yellow, standing stiff but confidently.

  I almost opened my mouth to talk, but Red interrupted me. "And what if we're busy?" I wonder why he's so defensive.

  "If you're going to be that rough Red, we might have to take her by force," Yellow explained, glancing at me. "But Purple, please do not feel that you are being pressured. We are only doing this because it's the forth day, and we haven't been correct since."

   I understand. Yellow and Green must be the more pressured ones here, since they're technically the leaders and the ones who are the most logical.

  "Don't worry, I understand," I said, getting up from the lunch table. "You guys must be stressed. I'll help you out then!"

  Yellow gave an uncommon, strange grin, before the two of them bowing as a thanks. "Thank you for your cooperation, Crewmate Purple. Follow us." The two of them exited the cafeteria, as I quickly followed after them.

   Before I exited, I took one last glance at Red. Why does he seem to be...  angered, and stuck in his head? Oh whatever, I'm sure he's just thinking about this. I'll tell him later.

   I'm sure it'll be no big deal.

Day 5 --- 08:25 --- Did You Kill Them...?

!!!BODY(S) FOUND!!!

   I ran to the cafeteria as fast as I could, even though I was sleepy as hell. On the outside of the round lunch table, there was Cyan, Pink, Black, White, and Red were there. Red's face was the most troubled and traumatized. I hope he's okay.

  "Red, where were the bodies?" Black asked, her eyes staring at him intently.

  Red pulled out a holographic camera, which we had only used for certain situations. "Green's body was in front of cams, it looked like he had been stabbed repeatedly with something sharp."

   The cameras showed Green's body reaching for cams, but sadly being too late. The back of his body had multiple holes in them, each bleeding out and dirtying his coat and the ground. I can't believe so many people have died like this...

  "Then there's Yellow. I found his in the room next to cams, the reactor. He was probably doing a task and was caught off guard, before being caught in battle and losing." He pulled up another camera which showed Yellow's body.

   This time it was more grotesque. His chest was covered in stab wounds and gashes, his neck being gravely injured... That must've been the final blow for him. I'm not sure if we'll be able to find the imposter without him...

  "When do you think they were killed, and where were you at the estimated time?" White asked next.

  "They were killed somewhere around 07: 30, because I found them around 08:10. If only I had made it in time, Green might've survived..."

   Green might've survived... Something about that is off. I know Green has less injuries than Yellow, but... Why did Yellow have so many injuries in the first place? They might've gotten into a fight, but Yellow isn't that strong. The only reason why is for the imposter to have a grudge against...!

   !

  "Red... Why do you think Yellow had so many stab wounds," I asked, grabbing everyone's attention. "Do you think it was because of some sort of grudge?"

  Red kept a serious face and nodded. "Yes, it may have been a grudge. I saw that on Day 3 that Pink and Yellow got into an argument... So it may be her doing." He shifted the blame immediately on Pink...

   What he doesn't know is that Pink was with me today. I remember clearly what she had said with complete truth...

  ''Ah, I can't believe I was such a asshole to Yellow!! I've got to apologize to him, but do you know how?''

  "Red... It wasn't Pink, she was with me in the sleeping quarters," I canceled his assumption immediately, causing his pupils to suddenly contract. "Red, Did you kill them...?"

   There was a long heavy tension between Red and the entirety of the round lunch table, each and every person leaning in to her his response.

   Please Red, please... Tell me I'm wrong.

  Then, he snickered. "Sorry Purple."
