SIXTH TRIAL

Alright, same as every week before this - gather at the Vault Door so my Assistant can let you in. And I can start hoping to salvage at least the aquarium.

[ The Assistant, nee Failsafe, stands in her armor at the ready when you arrive, not saying a word and simply unlocking the door and elevator for you to head on down to the trial room. Second verse, same as the first five verses, but a whole lot quieter and a whole lot meaner.

The elevator is a lot emptier now, isn't it? Your number has fallen yet again since the last time you were here. Feels like yesterday, or maybe forever ago? Time's feeling pretty weird right about now, but trial days are for getting locked into the moment. You're here, you're present.

You're running out of allies.

The screens are the same as ever, though, and lower as you enter. ]


I see you haven't decided to continue to increase the number of bodies this week. Perhaps something to be thankful for, in all of this. Hotshot is dead, and the responsibility of finding his killer falls to you. Hopefully this is all old hat to you by now, no?

[The screens rise.

Welcome to your sixth trial. ]

You're gonna stab him, aren't you.

I- Yes, I'm going to stab him.

Oh, jeez- If he starts moving again, just be careful about it? I don't want the Professor trying to say you killed him.

cw: in which we double tap the corpse to make sure it died when it was killed

If he starts moving again, killing him will probably have been a service to everyone.

[He's taking out one of those combat knives, though, and just kind of...approaching the dead guy and kneeling over him.

And...extremely precisely stabbing him in the neck, high up against the base of the skull. Setting him on fire would probably not be appreciated here, not would destroying his head, so functional decapitation is going to have to work.]
