"Mondo... was it really you?" Makoto asked him. "I... I... I-I-I... I..." He started, "I didn't hurt anyone! You've been all over me, judging everything I say, putting words in my mouth. What gives you the right to treat me like a god damn criminal!?"

"Y-Yeah! He would never do something like that! This is a false accusation!" Taka defended Mondo. "It's true, my reasoning on that IS pretty shaky..." Kyoko said. "Th-That was fast..." Makoto stated. "Well, this does present us with a problem. It seems we are all out of leads." Celeste informed. "Hehehe, it seems as though my time has come. That's what my little ghost friend is telling me." Hifumi said, making a weird pose. "Oh yeah, that reminds me. Hifumi, weren't you telling me you had found some evidence?" Makoto asked. "Really!? What kind of evidence!?" Hina asked.

"W-Well... it may be irrelevant, but... h-here it is..." Hifumi said. "Huh? What is that?!" Genocide Jill asked. "It happens to be a Handbook. I fou d it laying on the ground, so I scooped it up." He said. "Then it must be Chihiro's!" Makoto exclaimed.

"Maybe it holds some kind of clue about the culprit!" Hina cheered. "Well, that's what I was hoping for, but it's busted, it wont even turn on." Hifumi said. "Hm? I thought the handbooks were... well, more resistant." Y/n said. "Puhuhu. That' because they are. Try to solve this mystery, how did the handbook get broken?" Monokuma asked.

"You had already told us before that the handbook had one weak point, right?" Makoto asked. "Ugyah! You remember that!?" Monokuma replied, "S-Sure, I let that slip. But I never told anyone what the weak point actually was!"

"Then we can only assume someone figured out the weakness." Kyoko said. "You k ow what the weakness is, right, Monokuma? So what is it?" Y/n said, looking at the bear. "Huh? You're asking me?" The bear asked.

"No, I'm asking the chair- Ofcourse I'm asking you!" The h/c haired girl said, "This may be an important part for the trial." "But... if I tell you, and someone else decides to copy it, that would be very not good..." The bear replied. "Just spit it out. Don't be annoying." Y/n said, getting annoyed. "Fine, fine, just don't break your handbooks! The cutting-edge to my handbooks iiiiis: When it's exposed to high temperatures for too long, it will suffer a meltdown and totally brrreak!" The bear informed.

"I flipping knew it!" Hifumi shouted. "You... knew?" Makoto asked. "Yeah, cuz I found it laying on the sauna!" Hifumi answered. "So then... how did the culprit find out? Monokuma said he didn't tell anyone..." Hina questioned. "...Well, maybe they found out... the hard way? Or... in other words, by accident?" Y/n asked.

"What do you mean by 'accident'?" Sakura asked. "Well... maybe they took their handbook into the sauna, not knowing the weakness, and it broke?" Y/n theorized. "They'd realize it was broked, and it wouldn't be hard to figure out why..." Kyoko mumbled, "And once they had Chihiro's handbook, they knew they had an easy way to dispose of it."

"I won't say it's not possible, but... who would have done something like that?" Byakuya asked, "I don't know of anyone who took their handbook into the sauna..."

"...I might know someone who did." Y/n and Makoto said at the same time. "Ah- you can tell them, if you want." Y/n said. "R-Right... anyways, I think the one who may have taken their handbook into the sauna was..." Makoto started.

"Gh... nghh..." Taka sounded. "Mondo, your handbook got broken in the sauna, didn't it?" Makoto asked. "WH-WH-WHAT?" Mondo questioned. "Why do you keep accusing him!?" Taka cried. "Mondo and Taka had an endurance contest in the sauna not too long ago, remember?" Makoto asked. "Right. I was also a witness of that..." Y/n mumbled. "And for the contest, Mondo just so happened to keep his uniform on." Makoto explained, "But little did he realize, he'd also left his handbook in one of his uniform's pockets."

"And when it was all over, Mondo discovered that taking your handbook into the sauna could easily destroy it." He explained more. "Ngh...Grrrhhh!" Mondo groaned in anger. "No, wait, hold on..! You've got it all wrong! He would never hurt-!" Taka interrupted himself, "I don't accept this! Show me the proof! The actual, solid proof!"

"Well, if Mondo's handbook is actually broken...

...then that proves that what Makoto said is right." Celeste noted.

"Well my goddamn handbook works just fine!" Mondo assured.

Makoto said his famous line once more.

"Mondo, is the handbook you have right now... actually yours?" Makoto asked. "The fuck is that supposed to mean?!" Mondo asked, angry.

"Isn't the handbook that was in the hall actually yours?" Makoto asked. "What the heck are you talking about!?" Taka questioned. "I think that Mondo swapped his handbook out for one that actually works." Makoto claimed. "So, the one on the hall is Mondo's, and the one Mondo has is Leon's, correct?" Celeste asked. "But... doesn't that violate the rule that says 'loaning your handbook to another student is prohibited'?" Hina asked. "Well, is a student is unconscious, it doesn't count. Puhuhu!" Monokuma laughed.

"Well, Mondo? If I'm wrong about this, you're welcome to correct me. I am more than happy to admit I made a mistake..." Makoto said. "S-Son of a bitch!" Mondo insulted. "What's wrong, bro? Come on, tell him he's wrong..!" Taka said. He then turned to Makoto, "You ARE wrong! You HAVE to be wrong! Everything you said is wrong! You made it all up!"

"Well, lets look at this from the beggining." Makoto suggested.

*intert the explanation because this chapter is already longer than its supposed to be*

"If you need more proof, we can check his handbook right now." Makoto said, "Once we do that, we'll"

"We don't gotta do that... Mondo interrupted Makoto. "Huh?" The interrupted boy asked.

"Yeah. Yeah... I did it... I attacked him..." Mondo started. "Bro? Bro... what are you saying?" Taka asked. "I got no choice, man. After hearing all that, I gotta just... give up. Go ahead Monokuma, get it over with. Ask for the god damn verdict." Mondo said.

"Roger that!" Monokuma cheered. "No, wait! Hold on!" Taka pleaded. "No waiting! No holding on!" Monokuma stated.

"IIIT'A VOTING TIIME!" He said.

Everyone then voted for Mondo.

"You're cooooorrect!" Monokuma cheered. "In case you're wondering, the vote was NOT unanimous. Kiyotaka chose the wroong answer!" He informed.

"I-I refuse to believe it! There's no way... he would do such thing!" Taka said. "Sorry..." Mondo apologized. "Wh-Why are you apologizing?! Why!? Why why why why why why!? WHYYYYY!?" Taka cried, "Wh...why? WHY DID YOU DO IT?"

"Well then. Since Mondo has chosen to be silent. I shall explain the story!" Monokuma said.

"The story of the murder this time... is the sad story of two young men.

There was once a young boy... and his name was Chihiro Fujisaki. He had an extreme inferiority complex regarding his own lack of strength. He'd hear insulsy for as long as he could remember, as he couldn't overcome his weakness. On the contrary, he tried to hide and buried himself further and further into that weakness.

And eventually took on the fragile form of a petite young girl.

He had chosen that as his way out.

Nobody would be able to insult him then.

But no matter how tightly he wrapped himself up in that shell... the inferiority complex had already taken root deep inside of him, and was not so easily weeded out.

As it turned out, the shell was completelt empty. The complex didn't disappear. Instead, it only grew stronger and stronger.

Once this little game had begun here at the school, he had no choics but to accept the fact that he was weak.

And then I announced the revealing of secrets motive! Which, ofcourse, had Chihiro's secret too. But...

Annoyingly, he used that threat to motivate himself to become stronger.

So, that day, he made the commitment to begin exercising. He was prepared to retrain his mind and body.

But sadly... that would be the first and only chance he would get at it!

When he started exercising, he wanted to ask someone for help. So he decided to tell the person their secret first, and then ask for their help feom there!

And the person he went to..." Monokuma paused.

"It was me..!" Mondo stated. "Since Mondo took his manly promises very seriously, he knew that even if he was conflicted by it, he would be fine. Plus, Mr. Macho Mondo was the very symbol of a strong man that Chihiro had aspired to be!" Monokuma spoke.

"So then, he moved Chihiro's body so that he could keep his promise..." Kyoko said. "So he moved his body and kept his promise, even after he had attacked Chihiro?" Makoto asked. "Why... would he... do that?" Taka asked.

"The nore I hear you talk, the morw I don't understand! I mean, you guys trusted each other, right? So why..." Taka questioned once more, in tears.

"Because... no matter what, I didn't want anyone to know..." Mondo explained. "B-But... something you didn't want anyone to know? Nothing could've been bad enough to hurt someone!" Taka cried.

"Well then, why don't I tell you? You know what Mondo did? He killed his own brother!" Monokuma annnounced. "Gh-!" Mondo sounded.

"Mondo, the Ultimate Biker Gang Leader, had a chance to join the gang because of a certain someone.

Mondo's older brother's name was Daiya Owada.

Mondo had nothing but respect for him. It was because of Daiya that Mondo ever got on a motorcycle.

Mondo's brother was his only family growing up. He was the only one Mondo could trust, or respect.

He wanted to measure up to his big brotehr, so he imitated him in everything he did.

Daiya had his own gang, and eventually, it became the biggest gang in the area.

Daiya, the older brother, number one in the gang. And his number two, his younger brother, Mondo.

In the beggining, everything was peaches and gravy. But when Mondo started to think about how he would have to take over the gang from his brother someday... his brother's greatness, his reputation, began to gnaw on Mondo's very soul!

Almost every day, Mondo heard the gossip and whispers of the other members of the gang.

And on the night of his amazing brother'a retirement ceremony, Mo do challenged him to a street race!

Mondo was close to being hit by a truck, but before that could happen, his brother pushed him out of the way!

Laying in his kid brother's arms, the older brother delivered his final words... "M-My bad, kid... I fucked up. Sorry."

Ofcourse he knew ot was his brother's fault, but Daiya never blamed him for what happened.

Amd he decided to keep the truth from the rest of the gang!"

"I was... jealous... jealous of Chihiro's strength... he had the strength to face his own weakness, to try to overcome it." Mondo started, "After he told me his secret, I... don't remember anything after that. When I woke up again, he was laying at my feet, covered in blood. I had the dumbbell on my hand, and I was just staring at him... down on the ground..."

"H-Hey... bro..." Taka whispered, in tears.

"AH-HAHAHAHAH! You're all just as weak as him!" Monokuma laughed, "Well, whatever, lets get this punishment going."

"H-Hold on!" Taka cried.

"Now then, I've prepared a very special punishment for Mondo Owada, the Ultimate Biker Gang Leader!" Monokuma cheered.

"N-No, wait! WAIT!" Taka cried once more.

"Lets give it everything we've got! IIIIT'S PUNISHMENT TIIIIIIIME!" Monokuma cheered.

"I! Said WAAAAAAAAAIT!!" Taka sobbed.

"Sorry man, I couldn't keep the peomise we made... feom one man to another..." Mondo said.

His punishment then started.

Mondo was tied to a bike, but he didn't wear a helmet.

The motorcycle spinned around the cage at an insane speed. Probably not healthy.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Taka's cries were heard in the background.

Electricity started charging up around the cage. It flashed- and when Y/n's vision adjusted, she saw Mondo laying there. He was hardly breathing.

Just a bit longer and he would've died.

"BROOOO! NOOOOOOOOO!"

His cries continued.
